Publications and Postage Notices

Bro. E. L. Chamberlain has about fifty copies of the pocket edition of the Apocrypha left, which can be had by addressing him post-paid, at Middletown, Conn.
Under the present postage law, they will have to be pre-paid at one cent an ounce, therefore the price will be 25 cents. It is a matter of economy to pre-pay postage on letters, as they can be sent three thousand miles for three cents, if pre-paid, but if not pre-paid will cost the receiver five cents. Bro. Chamberlain says, “If we are using the Lord’s money, we ought to save when we can. I find most of my letters unpaid since the first of July, so I suppose all do not understand the new postage law.”
We shall expect to receive letters from those we have never heard from, and who have not requested the paper to be sent to them, if they desire it continued. We have sent dollars worth of publications to some that we have not heard from, free of charge, and if they are as interested to receive them, as we have been to send them, they can certainly spend a few moments of time, and three cents, to let us hear from them. Let no one delay writing, if they have not means to send now. We shall send this No. only to such, and if we do not hear from them, shall erase their names from our list. The fact that we have sent all our publications, for two years, to a number who have never received them, and knew not that they were sent, is the main reason for taking this course.
A brother from Illinois sends for publications for distribution. But we find that we have not a large quantity on hand, and have not the means to publish more. Yet as long as we have them, they shall go freely, to be distributed where there is strong hope of good being accomplished. Will the brother write again and say how they shall be sent.
