MILLENNIAL DAWN, VOL. IV., IN GERMAN.

Some months since we noted the fact that our German friends were urging its publication in their language, and were unwilling to accept our refusal. We finally offered that, if a sufficient number were ordered in advance, to amount to $500, we would consider it the Lord's will to proceed with the matter and grant the request.

We are gratified to be able to state that the required sum has been subscribed. The translating is being done by Brother Pillichody of Switzerland and Sister Giesecke of Germany, and will then be criticized by Bros. Koetitz and Kuesthardt of this country. All this, and the typesetting, printing, etc., will require several months; but the work is already started. May the Lord's blessing attend it to the praise of his glory and the blessing of his people of the German tongue!

OUR NOVEMBER EXTRA.

The demand for our Sept. issue was so great that it speedily exhausted our 20,000 edition: so we got out another 40,000 edition of the same "Parousia" article and other matter as a Nov. 7th Extra, and sent a copy to each subscriber. You will not need it for your file and can give it to any friend known to be interested in our Lord's second coming. Send us addresses of others, and we will mail them samples, free.

----------

"BIBLE TALKS IN SIMPLE LANGUAGE."

This book, described in our Nov. 7th issue, we find we can supply for less than stated: hence we are sending six of our booklets to each person who has already ordered, and will do the same with future orders.

M. DAWN, VOL. III., SWEDISH, AND DANO-NORWEGIAN.

Our Swedish friends who have been anxiously waiting for this volume for some time will be glad to learn that it is now ready.

We regret to say that our Danish and Norwegian friends must not expect the third volume in their languages: the demand is small, and the loss would be too great. These friends, we believe, can, if interested, gain from the Swedish edition considerable knowledge of the subjects treated.

The price of this volume is the same as the English--tho because of extra expense and smaller edition it costs us nearly double the wholesale figures.

DO YOU DESIRE ZION'S WATCH TOWER FOR 1899?

Please notice the terms upon which you can have this journal, if desired. They are as liberal as we can consistently make them. We desire to hear at once, from all whose subscriptions expire with this number, whether or not they desire our ministries further. Those who cannot pay now, but hope to remit subscription later, will please send postal card so stating. Those of God's people who are unable to pay are welcome to the TOWER free, if they will send a postal card request to this effect. "He that asketh receiveth," is the Lord's rule which as his stewards we follow. Write the card the minute you read this, and thus save us the trouble of resetting your name in our list.

----------

WATCH TOWER BINDERS.

We supply at 50 cents, post paid, Emerson's Patent Self-Binders, holding three years' issues of the TOWER. We advise all to keep a regular file of TOWERS for future reference. We often answer your questions by referring to back TOWERS. Get extra copies for loaning, etc.
