Eld. D. M. Canright: Should the $3.00 accompanying the name of S. P. Ward, of Lamoine, Me., be credited on Julia A. Ward's Review, of the same place? C. Barber is not on our South Norridgewock list. Is C. B. Barber, of North Berwick, the same? If so, should his Review be sent to South Norridgewock?

Mrs. A. A. Foss: Your money letters have, doubtless, all been intercepted. First, Your letter with 35c was not received; but, on receiving your subsequent letter of inquiry, we gave the credit and sent the Instructor. Secondly, Your letter with $1.00 was not received; but, on receipt of your next, we gave credit and sent the Review. Thirdly, The letter with $1.75 has not been received; but now, on receipt of your last letter, we give credit for the amount, and make this statement. There has been foul play somewhere. We did not place the credits in our list of receipts, from the fact that we did not receive the money.

W. E. Caviness: Money received. You will find it receipted in this number.

A. A. Hammond: We have the bound Vols. of the Instructor, which we send, postpaid, at 25c per Vol.

C. L. Palmer: The money was received and credited.

Bound Reviews.

By J. M. A.

We have on hand a limited number of bound Reviews,—Vols. 2 to 28 inclusive,—worth at least $1.50 per volume. These ought not to remain as dead property in the office; but should be taken to replete the libraries of such of our able brethren, as may desire to possess themselves of such a rare treasure.

We therefore offer these Reviews in sets complete at the very moderate price of $1.00 per volume.

It is no particular detriment to the set, that Vol. 1 is lacking, for that volume was of a smaller size, and was composed chiefly of articles on the Sabbath and other themes, which have all been republished in subsequent volumes. These back volumes, any and all of them, are really valuable books. They present, as it were, a panorama of this cause, and contain a vast amount of the best thoughts of writers on present truth, which have never been published in pamphlet form, and can be found only in these volumes.

The full set will form a complete Advent library, such as but few can have the privilege of obtaining. The number is limited. Those will be served first, who order first. We will send by Express as may be ordered.

The Question of Enlargement.

By Editor

SINCE the appearance of the inquiry in No. 9, “What shall be done??” in reference to a further enlargement of the Review, the brethren have spoken promptly and quite generally on the subject. And while the project is under consideration, we shall be excused for devoting so much space to it in the paper. It is the uniform testimony that the paper has about doubled in value and interest since its present enlargement. This is easily accounted for. When the enlargement was first suggested in No. 13, Vol. xxviii, it was stated that an enlarged paper would probably “have an encouraging influence upon the cause; that it would stimulate all who are capable of writing for its columns, to greater exertions; and that the paper would come forth greatly improved, and filled with no less choice matter than at present.” The event has abundantly justified this prediction. The brethren and sisters have taken up their pens to second heartily this advance step on the part of the message. The Review has been furnished as never before with original matter, and new life and interest has been given to the paper. And now, since we are still crowded for room, we believe we should see still further improvement in this respect, by another enlargement of the paper, bringing it up to the size it should be.

When we look at the shortness of time, the great work to be done, and the wants of the cause, it appears to be a foregone conclusion that the paper must be still further enlarged. The question of expense recurs. But this would hardly seem to be a ground of hesitation, when we look at the call for the enlargement on the part of the brethren, and their spontaneous pledges to do whatever is required to sustain it. There are many fold more calls for a further enlargement, than there were for the first; and what we publish is but an index of the whole; for no one has yet spoken against it. We, ourselves, abundantly feel that it is no time now to hesitate in any enterprise that cannot result otherwise than in the advancement of the message, and the upbuilding of the cause of present truth.

If fifty cents were added to the price, bringing it up to $3.00 per year, and all our subscribers should pay it, the expense would be met. And who would not be willing to pay an amount a little less than one cent a week for four extra pages of reading matter weekly? But all cannot raise $3.00 per year; and none must be deprived of the paper because they cannot pay for it. And we believe the liberal friends of truth will be willing to see that all deficiency accruing from this source shall be met by donations.

As for the truth, we know we have it. The Sabbath, sweet day of rest, glorious memorial of the Creator, attacked only with folly, down-trodden, despised, abused, will stand; and it must be heralded in trumpet tones through all the land. The message must go. And let us have a paper corresponding to the cause—the best cause in the world—in which we are engaged, and the magnitude of the work that devolves upon us.

Note From Bro. Fuller.

By N. FULLER.

OUR last Quarterly Meeting has just closed. The church at Catlin Center have been greatly blest, strengthened and encouraged. One was added to their number; others are almost ready to step in. By request we are giving a few lectures in this place, after which I must part with Bro. Cottrell, with whom I have enjoyed many precious seasons during the last quarter. The Lord has given Bro. C. good liberty, especially for the last two months, and his labors have been blest to the good of the church.

Yours in hope, Big Flats, N. Y. N. FULLER.

By James White

We wish to say to the brethren at Windsor and Orange, that we shall fill our appointments on our way north, if the traveling will possibly admit. But should the roads break up, and the mud become very deep, we may not be able to meet with them.
