April “Signs of the Times” Magazine

By Editor

THE cover for April is a reproduction of one of the finest photographs of El Capitan, Yosemite Valley, and we believe the readers of the magazine will be delighted to secure this tinted reproduction of this most remarkable bit of natural scenery. El Capitan stands a mighty rock 3,300 feet high, overlooking one of the most wonderful scenic valleys to be found anywhere. The contents of the magazine, too, are both timely and interesting.
“Reading the Future.” In this article the futile efforts of humanity in all ages to penetrate the dark vistas of the future are referred to. From this pathetic example of human inability, we are turned to the surety of the prophetic Word, where all the important things of the future have been outlined.
“Four Universal Empires of Time,” by Charles L. Taylor. In sympathy with the preceding article on “Reading the Future,” this article shows by example from sacred history how the future has been outlined in merely one prophecy of the Scriptures. Some most potent lessons are drawn from the experience.
“Justice Turned Backward.” The depressing conditions outlined in this array of facts and statements, under the general idea of a failure of justice, are given a prophetic setting. The article is one that will stir any reader who cares for the future of this country.
“Too Much Governed.” This article may be said to be somewhat in sympathy with the preceding one. It shows the effort now being put forth in all parts of our land to prevent lawlessness by enacting more laws, a conscious acknowledgment of the failure of the great mass of our citizens to govern themselves. There is a definite cause. Be sure to read this article.
“Fletcherism,” by David Paulson, superintendent of Hinsdale Sanitarium, Hinsdale, Ill. All who are interested in the attaining of a good, sound digestion will be desirous of reading every word of this article. While it is from a practising physician, it is written in good, plain, understandable English, and the suggestions can be carried out by anybody. Worth more than the price paid for the magazine. As priceless as the way to health.
“Devil-Worship,” by Frank S. Weston. In this article we have an example of another great sign of the times—an evidence that we are living in the latter days. The striking things that are here enumerated teach their lesson regarding our whereabouts in the history of the world.
“Our Lord’s Own Signs of His Coming,” by Prof. George W. Rine, continues this great series on the second coming of Jesus. This wonderful story is presented in a wonderful way, and shows without question the times in which we live.
“Glimpses of China,” by F. E. Stafford, continues this month, with an illustrated article on the pagodas of China. As announced previously, these articles are unusually well illustrated. As there are over 200 illustrations for the eight or ten articles to be published, it is easy to see that a wonderful pictorial setting is given the subject.
The usual good line of current topics, also. Good illustrations throughout. An unusually good number for circulation.
Ten copies to your home, only 50 cents. Twenty copies, $1. Fifty copies, $2.
