NOTICES AND APPOINTMENTS

By Editor

The “Watchman”

The Present Truth Evangelizer

THIS world is, after all, divided into two classes,—one class striving after the things of this world, and the other after things eternal. This fact is vividly portrayed on the cover page, illustrating two cities. Compare the great city of light with the great Babylons that men have made, and then “choose you this day whom ye will serve.” Joshua 24:15.

Our leading editorial, entitled “The Eternal City,” will be an excellent article to hand to your neighbor to read. As you know, the popular theory places our loved ones in heaven at death, far removed from this world's troubles. Is it true? Where is heaven? A straightforward Bible answer to this perplexing question.

G. B. Starr answers the important question, “Will Jesus Come?” Will he come to our world to gather the redeemed? Many doubt it because of the great advance being made toward universal peace. The popular idea is that he comes into the hearts of men to reign. Is this true? A true explanation of the deluding peace movements that lull society to-day. Will sin always exist? Will God always permit it? Are other worlds involved in the rebellion? The editor will give a very thoughtful treatise on “Our World an Object-Lesson.” It will be shown that we are but actors in the great and dreadful drama, enacted for the instruction of God's universe, to expose to sinless beings the exceeding sinfulness of sin. The finale is being watched with intense interest by a heavenly audience. Soon it will close, and our world will have given its object-lesson, and sin and sinners will be no more. Excellent to show to your doubting neighbor.

The Watchman will have a full report of the progress of the National Reform movement. This movement held a recent convention, and its principles and workings will be quite thoroughly reviewed. Is America free? Most people regard the principles of Protestantism and free America as synonymous. Few realize that they are being repudiated in this country. The principles are opposed to the broader ones of religious liberty, as vouchsafed to us by that great instrument, the American Constitution. Every lover of religious and civil liberty should read this article. Get a dozen copies of the Watchman to distribute to your friends and neighbors.

Do you not think this is a strong number dealing with the vital issues of the present hour? The September number had an unprecedented sale, the entire edition being exhausted before the appearance of the October number. We expect this edition to go the same way.

Hurry in your standing order that we may give it our best attention. Fifty cents will purchase ten copies, which you may sell for one dollar and buy twenty more, and so on. The possibilities of this plan are limitless. Rates in quantities: five cents up to 40 copies; over that number, four cents. Order to-day through your tract society.
