THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES
The great aim of this paper is to make clear the meaning of current events. It is devoted to the exposition of prophecy and the presentation of the Gospel. Wars, Unprecedented Amassing of Wealth, Conflicts of the Laboring Classes, Vices and Crimes and all other marked conditions of these times are among the subjects considered in this paper. The SIGNS OF THE TIMES is published weekly and contains sixteen pages. The International Sunday-school Lesson appears each week, together with the best notes obtainable. The paper is well illustrated and its general matter and especially the Home department is such that it is enjoyed by the children around the fireside as well as by the older enquirer after Bible truth.

Heralds of the Morning
The subtitle of this volume is “The Meaning of the Social and Political Problems of To-Day, and the Significance of the Great Phenomena in Nature.”
That serious problems, both social and political, now confront the world, no one doubts; that the elements themselves are participating in the general unrest is everywhere apparent; but that these are signs of the times is not so generally known, therefore this phase of the question is given special attention.
Actual occurrences illustrating such subjects as
The Prevalence of Crime a Sign of Our Times
Judgment Is Turned Away Backward
The Social Vice
The Earth Is Filled with Violence, Etc.
are cited, which indicate a far worse state of public morals than is generally thought to exist.
The terrible condition of the poorer classes in our large cities is vividly set forth by the author and emphasized by the artist in a chapter entitled, “Ye Have Heaped Treasure for the Last Days.”
“And the Nations Were Angry” is the title of a fully illustrated chapter on the stupendous preparations now being made for war.
“The Remarkable Century” relates more particularly to the wonderful inventions and discoveries of recent years.
There are other chapters—twenty-one of them—but they are all devoted to the one subject of giving the significance of current events, and it will not be necessary to name them here. They are intensely interesting and of vital importance to every man, woman, and child in the world.
It contains nearly 300 pages and over 100 illustrations, and is issued in two styles of binding.

The Coming King
By JAMES EDSON WHITE
Christ is here shown to be the central figure in the plan of salvation, the Creator and Redeemer of the world, the Divine Law-giver, the Leader of Israel, the Great Teacher, the Man of Sorrows, our Sacrifice, our Mediator, as well as “that Prophet” through whom comes to us definite knowledge concerning future as well as past events.
A considerable part of the book is devoted to the consideration of Christ’s great prophecy as recorded in Matthew 24th chapter, and special attention is given to that portion relating to the
Persecution of the Church
Darkening of the Sun, Falling of the Stars
Famines and Pestilences
Earthquakes and Tidal Waves, Etc.
Historical quotations showing the exact fulfilment of these predictions are made in connection with each.
The author then discusses the significance of such present-day topics as the Amassing of Wealth, Labor Troubles, Distress of Nations, Coming Conflict, etc., in a way that will attract and interest the reader.
Altogether it is a book that will inspire confidence in the Word of God, that will awaken many new thoughts concerning the Saviour and His work, that contains much valuable information concerning the times in which we live, and one that you will be pleased to have in your home and on your reading table.
It contains 288 pages and 150 illustrations. These illustrations are printed in colored ink and present a unique and attractive appearance. The bindings are
