about
the
preparation
for
that
event.
-
—The
removal
of
the
Pacific
Press
publishing
office
from
New
York
will
make
it
necessary
for
the
Maine
Tract
Society
to
settle
in
full
for
any
indebt-
edness
at
the
office,
and
this
can
not
be
done
unless
all
our
local
societies
come
up
and
pay
what
they
owe
us.
—We
desire
to
call
the
attention
of
our
church
elders
and
librarians
to
the
subject
of
“
Christ’s
Object
Les-
sons.”
The
Maine
Tract
Society
has
paid
in
cash
nearly
fifty
dollars
to
agents
for
commission
in
selling
this
book,
and
the
churches
ought
to
bear
this
rather
than
the
society;
for
if
they
do
not,
we
shall
find
ourselves
in
debt
again,
and
all
through
an
effort
to
help
the
schools
clear
themselves
from
debt.
Many
in
the
various
churches
have
promised
to
pay
fifty
cents
a
book
to
have
their
quota
and
more
sold,
and
have
failed
to
do
this.
Will
our
church
officers
call
attention
to
this
matter?
It
should
be
adjusted
at
once
so
as
to
have
the
books
clear
before
camp-meeting.

NOTICE.
DEAR
BRETHREN
AND
SISTERS
:
We
have
made
up
a
list
of
those
who
in
our
judgment
are
so
separated
from
their
brethren
that
they
do
not
have
a
chance
to
meet
in
the
usual
services
and
thus
have
the
benefit
of
the
read-
ings
from
time
to
time,
and
have
asked
the
Mission
Board
to
send
you
the
readings
the
same
as
to
the
elders
and
leaders
of
the
several
companies.
We
do
this
that
you
may
have
oppor-
tunity
to
see
the
needs
of
the
field
the
same
as
the
rest.
Also
thinking
you
would
appreciate
our
Union
Conference
paper,
the
GLEANER,
we
are
asking
the
editor
to
send
you
a
sample
copy
and
trust
you
will
see
the
good
qualities
of
the
same,
and
consider
that
when
you
do
not
have
weekly
communion
with
the
work
through
this
medium,
you
are
likely
to
be
ignorant
of
much
that
is
ATLANTIC
UNION
OGLEANER
transpiring
of
real
interest
and
im-
portance.
Then,
too,
there
is
an
ad-
vantage
to
consider.
From
time
to
time
your
State
president,
secretary,
Sabbath-school
secretaries
or
others
in
the
work,
desire
to
call
your
atten-
tion
to
some
special
department
of
the
work,
give
some
notice
of
meetings
in
your
vicinity,
and
like
notices;
then,
you
see,
there
are
the
camp-meeting
reports
and
general
articles
of
special
interest
to
every
member
of
the
con-
ference.
These
we
wish
to
get
before
you,
not
alone
that
we
may
reach
you,
but
that
you
may
have
the
help
and
inspiration
contained
in
them
from
time
to
time.
Accordingly,
we
are
asking
you
to
subscribe
for
this
paper
for
a
three
months’
trial
at
ten
cents
;
then
if
you
wish
you
can
order
it
continued
for
a
longer
period.
It
is
only
fifty
cents
a
year
and
is
a
weekly
paper.
We
shall
be
pleased
to
receive
your
order
at
any
time.
Sincerely
yours,
F.

ECHOES
OF
PARADISE.”
Tue
musical
world
will
no
doubt
be
pleased
to
greet
a
new
hymnal
en-
titled
¢
Echoes
of
Paradise,”
compiled
by
Thoro
Harris.
We
note
in
the
preface
that
it
“isthe
fruit
of
an
effort
to
meet
the
steadily
increasing
de-
mand
for
a
hymnal
that
shall
fulfil
all
the
requirements
of
the
most
ad-
vanced
standard
of
musical
taste.”
Among
the
testimonials
is
the
fol
lowing
from
B,
F.
Yeoman,
professor
of
music
in
South
Lancaster
Acad-
emy:
“Your
book,
‘
Echoes
of
Para-
dise,”
has
been
received,
and
I
have
given
it
a
careful
examination,
I
find
that
it
contains
much
new
and
original
music
of
a
decidedly
higher
standard
than
the
great
majority
of
hymnals
upon
the
market
to-day.
I
take
pleasure
in
commending
it
to
the
public.”
The
work
contains
three
hundred
and
twenty
pages,
and
three
hundred
(7)
391
and
thirteen
hymns,
many
of
which
are
entirely
new.
Price,
bound
in
cloth,
single
copy,
thirty-five
cents,
or
thirty
dollars
a
hundred.
