MOTTOES OUT OF STOCK.

----------

Our stock of mottoes has been greatly reduced by the holiday demand. We have no more $1.00 and $2.00 packages, of assorted sizes, but have still a good supply of small cards, at 5c each and 2 for 5c, plus postage at the rate of 5c on each purchase of 50c worth.

TO OUR CORRESPONDENTS.

----------

Friends would greatly facilitate the office work by writing with great legibility on one side of each sheet, and placing orders on a separate sheet containing full address. Re-read your letter after writing, to be assured you have forgotten nothing. Make no allowance for our remembering previous communications, but repeat previous orders in full when necessary to write about them. When you are situated in a town containing an Express office, do not forget to enquire there for package to your address, as we usually forward merchandise in that way. Foreign friends (including Jamaica, but not Cuba or the Philippines) are reminded that postage on letters is 2-1/2d. per half oz., and any deficiency is charged to us at double the amount. Unsealed letters are subject to same rate.

BAPTISM SERVICE, APRIL 16.

----------

At Bible House Chapel the first Sunday in each quarter is open for appointments for symbolic immersion. This rule will be set aside next quarter. Because of the Memorial Service coming on Sunday, April 16th, the Baptism service will take place on the same date,--at 3 p.m.

ROLLING TOGETHER OF THE HEAVENS.

----------

An article under this caption has been crowded out of two issues, but D.V. will appear in our next. It clearly indicates the approach of conditions we have long been expecting from Revelation 13:11-17. [page 82]

SWEDISH TABERNACLE SHADOWS.

----------

We have now this pamphlet in TOWER form. Tract Fund contributors, also the poor, may order these without price. Others who so prefer may purchase what they can use at 3 for 10 cents.

A NEW WALL CHART.

----------

A new Chart, similar to the one in the front of DAWN I., five feet long, done in solar tint (blue print) has been prepared. These we can supply at $1.00 each, express prepaid. We still have the 5-ft. Charts, painted, at $1.50 each, express prepaid. Either style is excellent for your sitting room. The explanation of it is entertaining as well as instructive to your friends who may call, and will prove very helpful to yourself; for if you learn to explain it to others you will have a good store of information for your own heart.
