THE ANNIVERSARY OF OUR LORD'S DEATH.
The Lord's people, scattered abroad, who trust for salvation in the value of his ransom-sacrifice at Calvary, will take pleasure in celebrating on its anniversary the great sin-offering made once for all. The time this year will be Sunday, April 7, after six o'clock, P.M.—answering, according to the Jewish calendar, to the hour at which our Lord instituted the memorial, in "the same night in which he was betrayed."
The church at Allegheny will celebrate the Memorial as usual at 8 P.M.; but no arrangements have been made for a general gathering, nor for subsequent meetings. Indeed, we believe that those who would attend can generally do more good by meeting with the little groups in their own neighborhoods, and contributing what they can to the interest and spirit of those smaller gatherings.
TRACTS NOS. 1 and 22 may now be ordered sparingly; we will soon have a good supply. A sample of No. 26 (DO YOU KNOW?—in Swedish) has been sent to all our readers. Those who have Swedish friends should order them freely. In the English the run is now being made upon No. 25 for use amongst mature Christians, especially Methodists. Order all you can and will use judiciously,—we have plenty of them—free. Nos. 14 and 21 are for general circulation, to all classes; they can always be had in any quantity.
Whether because our proposition was not understood, or because your friends can mostly read English, our proposition for a German Quarterly was responded to by few. We will restate the matter a little differently.
A small German Quarterly is proposed, whose columns shall contain select translations from ZION'S WATCH TOWER, by Bro. O. A. Kotitz. These papers will be chiefly to introduce the Truth to Germans and to prepare them for MILLENNIAL DAWN. Those who want any will probably want many of them quarterly; hence the following low prices, based upon large issues.

"CHRISTIAN COMMON SENSE" in our last issue seems to have met the wants of God's people as an answer to the Satanic doctrine that God is the instigator and author of "all the sin; wickedness and crime of the world." We have an extra supply of the last TOWER and will send extra copies free to such as will promise to give or loan them amongst Christian people afflicted with this revived theosophic delusion.
CALENDARS. We have many inquiries for calendars for '95, such as we supplied at very low prices for '93 and '94. In reply: We failed to secure any for '95 at special prices and hence got none. Those who desire can procure them at the retail price through their nearest bookseller.
WALL ROLLS.—We continue to supply the Wall Rolls,—60 cents each, postage paid by us. Two kinds, "Strength and Sunshine for Every Day," and "Precept, Prayer, Promise and Praise." Each presents Scripture, etc., for each day—repeating monthly.
MISSIONARY ENVELOPES.—Do not forget these. They preach the glad tidings in few words wherever they go; to your correspondents, as well as to postmen, and others enroute. Price, post-paid, 25 for 10 cents, 100 for 25 cents.
TRACTS IN GOOD SUPPLY NOW. Order freely all you can and will use judiciously.
BIBLES AND BIBLE STUDY HELPS at specially low prices. Send for catalogue.
