BINDERS FOR 1893-1894

Patent Binders of a size suitable for the TOWER for two years’ issues, and with the name of our journal and the dates 1893-1894 stamped in gilt on the side, are now ready. Those therefore who hereafter order Binders should specify whether they want these for coming years or those for 1891-1892 which have no dates stamped on them. These are extremely desirable for preserving your TOWERS in a convenient form for future reference. Price fifty cents each.

THE WATCH TOWER FOR 1893

So far as possible we prefer to have subscriptions date from January each year; but where this is not convenient we are pleased to have it otherwise. Those who cannot pay now, but who expect to do so later, and who desire that their papers continue uninterruptedly, will please drop a card saying so. Each can see just how his account stands by examining the date on the address label of his last paper. These we will correct every month hereafter.

Those who from age, accident or other misfortune are unable to afford to subscribe are still welcome to receive the WATCH TOWER free as “The Lord’s Poor,” if they describe themselves and make the request yearly. (Such are marked with a sign—thus: +—on the address label.) This offer is not meant for those whose inability to pay arises from the spending of a larger sum for tobacco, etc.; but all who are really of the class described are as welcome to the TOWER regularly as though they paid for it.

But it is not too much to ask such to renew their request each year on a postal card. If you have once described your case and are marked (thus: +) on your label you need not explain again; for we understand that your circumstances are still the same. Such may simply say, “Please renew my subscription as heretofore,” and we shall understand them. But others not so marked (+) should explain, for we have not understood them heretofore.

Again, let us request that all the “Lord’s Poor” renewals come in promptly before January ’93. Those who asked the TOWER free during other months get it only until December ’92 unless they now, in December, ask its renewal. “Ask and ye shall receive” is God’s method—which we adopt.

GOOD HOPES FOR 1892 SUCCESSFUL

In our next issue we hope to present a report showing that the “Good Hope” plan adopted a year ago was a decided success—increasing the Tract Society’s Funds and its usefulness in the work of truth-spreading. We will then also furnish blanks for 1893 for such as appreciate this method and opportunity for serving our Redeemer and King.

—————

MOTTO CARDS, ETC.

In our next issue we will mention some new Motto Cards just imported as helps toward home embellishment.

We remark now that we still have some of the Flower Cards brought from Palestine (Cards upon which pressed flowers are pasted in neat designs), brought as mementoes of the Holy land. These are donated to the Tract Fund and sell as follows:

Small Cards, 4 for 25 cents.

Larger ” , 2 ” 25 cents.
