they will be abundantly rewarded for
this expression of their faith in the
soon-coming of the Savior and the
need of doing while there is oppor-
tunity.

this place greatly enjoved a visit
from Elder A. H. Rulkoetter.
Sabbath was a beautiful day, and
es the little flock after the Sabbath
services gathered on the wooded
banks of the river, all nature seemed
to rejoice in the solemn scene, while
four precious souls arose from the
watery grave to walk in newness of
life. These were after-fruits of Elder
Rulkoetter’s efforts here about
vears ago.

PRICES PAID FOR NEW
MEMBERS
It ix estimated that the cost of each
new member added to the denomina-
tion through the usual evangelical
method is $145. The following state-
ments, therefore, are interesting and
worthy of serious reflection:
A brother
\
in Charleston, South
Carolina, says: “Four years ago I
received four copies of “Present
Truth” which weighed upon my mind
for four years and finally led me to
give my heart to the Lord, and unite
with the S. D. A. Church, having been
a Baptist for sixteen vears.” These
four copies of “Present Truth” cost
two cents four years ago, with post-
age of one cent, maling a total of
three cents.
