OUR FORTHCOMING SPECIALS.

By Editor

THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES is set for the purpose of giving the last Gospel message of Revelation 14 to the world. And it gives it week by week, number by number. Yet that message is so broad, so comprehensive, that it is impossible to scarcely more than touch it in one issue. In fact, it takes an entire volume of the paper to develop that great message at all adequately.
Yet there are many who wish it presented in its various phases briefly. To do this, we propose to issue, beginning with the first week in October, four "Special Message" numbers, as follows:
  1. The Sure Word of Prophecy and Christ's Coming.
  2. The Sanctuary, The Gospel in Type and Antitype.
  3. The Law, the Gospel, and the Sabbath.—"The Whole Duty of Man."
  4. The Church Triumphant.
The above titles express only a part of that which each number will contain. Here is a suggestive list of the main articles so far as developed:

Besides these our Home department will be full of precious instruction. There will be Bible-Readings, poems, music, if there is room, many illustrations. Each number will have a specially-prepared front-page cover-design, attractive and appropriate to that issue.
This series ought to have a circulation, at the least calculation, of half a million. More about it in the future.
