Then instruction was given to Elder Haskell
that in his anxiety to supply the people with the precious truth
contained in his books, in his desire that all should feel that
the books are worth more than they cost, and that all should
be encouraged to give them a wide circulation, he was selling
his books too cheap, and thus making his own burden too heavy.
Our Counselor said: "The books should
be sold in such a way that the author will not be left barehanded
and that the publishing house shall have a proper margin so that
it will have means to carry on its work."
