A Modern Tale—and Its Moral

By Editor

WE hope no one will fail to read the article on the tenth page, entitled, “A Modern Tale—and Its Moral.” The simple facts stated in this article ought to appeal to all who bear on their hearts the workers in distant and difficult fields. We shall be glad if many workers are cheered by encouraging letters as a result of this article; but we must caution all correspondents to prepay their letters at full foreign postage rates.

Monthly Edition of the Signs

By Editor

THE publishers of the Signs of the Times announce a monthly edition, in magazine form, of that valuable paper, the first number to be published next month. We have believed for a long time that there was a great field for such a publication, and we are confident that this step will result in placing this message before a constantly increasing circle of readers. The full particulars concerning this publication will be found on the twenty-second page.

Missionary Maps

By I. H. Evans

THE General Conference, by the action of the April Council, has ordered five hundred copies of the Missionary Map of the World. The size of these maps is 50 x 87 inches, and they are printed by hemispheres, in colors. The maps were bought so that each of our churches could be supplied with this valuable means of awakening an intelligent interest in the regions beyond, and they will be ready for delivery in about two weeks. We shall be glad to have our churches order at an early date.

The regular retail price of this map is $6; but as we are taking such a large number at one time, and paying cash for them, we secure them at the rate of $2 each, so we can furnish them, post-paid, for $2.25. Any who desire this map should send the money to the office of the General Conference, Takoma Park, D. C., and it will be forwarded at once.
