BIBLES AT COST--CHEAPER THAN EVER.

Competition has finally brought the prices of Bibles to, we believe, the very lowest notch.
Recent concessions for large lots permit us to name the following remarkable low rates:--

"Oxford Teachers' Bibles," Minion type, gilt edges, 97 cents each. The same with red under gold edges, $1.10

A PRECAUTIONARY CORRECTION.
Anent the offer of our last issue, of Florida land, free: One of the brethren fears that the statement with reference to the Florida climate near St. Petersburg might be misunderstood; and suggests that we say to the friends that fresh meat hung in the open air will keep for a long while there, but not forever: it becomes dry and unfit for food.

THE SILVER QUESTION IN PROPHECY.
Our Oct. 1st issue, devoted chiefly to the exposition of James 5:1-8, has had a very great demand. We printed twenty thousand copies, but they are nearly gone, orders are coming in for extras from one copy to two hundred, and the supply will soon be gone. If the orders continue, it is proposed to reset that article for a TOWER Extra and in it give the leading article of this issue--"Hope of a Second Chance."
----------
TRACTS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGES.
----------
Do not forget that we have plenty of foreign as well as plenty of English tracts and that sample copies for free distribution are sent in any quantity to all TOWER subscribers.
Our latest tracts are "Do the Scriptures Teach that Eternal Torment is the Wages of Sin?" translated into German (No. 34) and into Hollandish or Dutch (No. 33), and "Why are Ye the Last to Welcome Back the King," translated into Swedish (No. 35).
