. y ■ i; CHRISTIAN HERALD. 14 7-à Fi A « I I I I I ! <1 i i V I t - tiohal music his speiTklty, and never fails to arouse great enthusiasm in its perfection where ever he teaches. Both of these gentlemen pro nounce the “ New Christian Hymn and Tune Book” the best book for congregational use they have ever seen. This unequivocal endorsement is confirmed by many other eminent teachers, but to add to such authority would bo ueseless. This bookis declared the most perfectly adapted —---- ■■ t Q pHQauy^ anywhere. 2. T hb S kill and E nterprise of the P ub lishers .—The importance of this point, too often overlooked, will be seen on a moment’s reflection. If the publishers are musicians, who are alive to all improvements in the publication 1 I I Í I » te J A I •-» II 1 I ■j Ji. I ’ * Í á —‘— the t ear he rs arid WTlW r w or rnTO fti * success depends solely on the name they make for themselves as publishers, it is evident that the wants of the people and the churches will be more fully met than where the publishers have - but a side interest in music, ana have no such incentive to perfect their work, especially where they do not own the plates and copyright». The plain proof of this is to be seen in the splendid series of plajtes which have been madeto adapt the “New Christian Hymn and Tune-Book” toererj/ want of the congregations. Before the book was a month old, there was a demand for an edition for choirs and singing-schools. The publishers instantly appreciated ite importance, and have issued a magnificent edition, with rudiments —.. “d anthsms.to meet. this want... Ap.. -—iHH-verv limited—demand arose for a large print edition, for those of infirm sight. Th« demand was promptly met, and now, although theyjhave the most perfect series ever offered to the congregations, they have other editions in view, to meet special demands. This series of --tiouks is their pride, and a source of honorable, lifelong ambition. How different where there is only a temporary and mercenary interest in the publication! 3. T he G eneral U se of the B ook .—It is a very important matter whether the book to be chosen is in general use or not. We are happy to be able to say that the sale of the “ New -Christian Hymn and Tune-Book,” since ite in troduction last August, has been—in the teeth of an opposition acknowledged by its most frantic enemies to have been almost unanimous on the part of the press—fifty per cent, greater than that of tho book which these papers all ad vocated. This fact, in favor of a book pushed solely on its merits, tells the whole story. A book that outsells another of acknowledged merit by fifty per cent., when almost the entire press is combined in strenuous support of the book outsold, is a bonk that it will do to adopt. Within six months, from Cincinnati alone we supplied more than 350 churches, not to men tion the large numlier supplied from 8t. Louis and other cities. It is In use in mere than 100 congregations in Ohio; in more than 75 in In diana: in Illinois more than 40 congregations have been supplied from Cincinnati, and many more from St. Louis, while numerous orders have beer, shipped to every State. 30,000 copies are in use, in more than 500 churches. So far as rapid and general adoption is ooncerned, no .... book can egnal it.______________________ _ ___ 4. C heapness .—There is no book, of similar excellence of make, that presumes to compete with the prices of tho “ New Christian Hymn and Tune-Book.” Not to mention the fact that the low prices at which other books can now be ___ had. is duiLaiJlely .ta41ie.low prica-of this, it te a fact that the only books that make the slightest approach to these prices, while they have only 5 pe?. cent, more hymns, are sold at prices from 25 to 30 per cent, higher. This boot is, then, from 20 10 25 per cent, cheaper than any other book in the market. And this fact alone, when we cqnsidor that some 5,000 or 6,000 churches must be supplied with books, is an immense ar gument in its favor. If no more than two dozen books are Mold to each church, it makes a differ ence of $12,00(1! The demand for cheap books Mrnatrifling'matter. This book baa been pre pared on the motto: “Good enough for any; cheap enough for all.” We have thus shown that four of the most im portant considerations point to the “New Chris tian Hymn and Tune-Book” as the book for gen eral adoption. A book that is pronounced the be.tl by the most competent judges; that has the • promise of oveTv possiblo improvement in the future; thath** hail the widest and most popu lar favor, ir spite of tho frantic exertions nf the press; and that, finally, is from 20 to 25 per cent, cheaper than any othor book whatever, is book that can be adopted with all sal'ety. it IME CHRISTIAN QUARTERLY ----------- REVIEW...... _ is published on the theory that hymn-books are made for the churches, not the churches for hymnrbooks, aud hence is pushed solely on its ¡wife- Thft.aaBX'arftui'Jtii irn will-b e g iven to every church to examine it before they purchase if application is made to the STANDARD PUBLISHING C9., 180 Elm street, Cincinnati, O.
