OUR NEXT ISSUE.

By Editor

The Third and Souvenir Edition of Our Earthquake and Fire Special.

Several journals in the East have gotten out splendid earthquake numbers, notably Leslie's, Collier's, and Harper's.
Much attention was given the earthquake for a few days by the dailies.
The new San Francisco Magazine has gotten out a magnificent number which sells readily at 25 cents.
Yet there is a demand for the SIGNS OF THE TIMES. Our first edition reached a circulation of 400,000. Our second edition is still selling, and our press orders, all told, are over 650,000. More than 117,000 have been sold in California north of the Tehachapi range alone, and it is still selling.
A better Third Edition is demanded; and it will be published next week.
All the articles have been thoroughly revised, and all important facts given up to date.
It will contain between thirty and forty of the finest views obtainable of the earthquake, fire, and ruins. It will contain seismographic records taken in Oakland, Napa, Albany, and Austria.
It will print a fine relief map of San Francisco, showing the fire-swept district, a map of that part of California specially affected by the great earthquake, and a comparative diagram of the great fires of Chicago, Boston, Baltimore, and San Francisco.
The governor's proclamation, the mayor's proclamation, and other historical matter will be given.
It will also have a colored cover.
It will present two fine panoramic scenes of fire and ruins printed on specially fine paper.
It will tell the meaning of these things from that "more sure Word of prophecy," which has never failed, and never will fail.
In fact, it is impossible to tell you of the excellency of this issue, and we shall endeavor to make it absolutely true to fact.
Historically, it is worth its price.
Artistically, it is worth its price.
Didactically and ethically it is worth its price.
Yet we propose to sell it for what news agents sold our first edition,—10 cents. Our regular subscribers will get it to compensate for our smaller issue of three weeks ago.
Price in lots of more than five and less than 1,000, five cents each; in more than 1,000, four cents each.
