OUR GENERAL PULPIT. PLEASE TAKE NOTICE.

—————

ZION'S WATCH TOWER is the Editor's general pulpit. As he does not wish to preach to any except willing hearers, it is as proper that your copy of the TOWER should stop at the end of your subscription as that he should cease to be pastor of the Allegheny Church if not re-elected. Hereafter, therefore, except in very exceptional cases, the TOWER will be stopped at the end of the subscription year. All who wish the TOWER for 1897 should send word at once. The terms are so liberal as to leave no excuse. It is provided free to the Lord's poor who will send a card each year stating the fact. Those who can pay, but not now, will please send a card so stating.

By responding promptly you will save us much trouble and expense in connection with our mailing list.

TRAVELING BRETHREN ON TIME.

—————

When you get word that any of the "Pilgrim" brethren are coming to your vicinity at a particular date, you may expect them and prepare accordingly. Do not delay arrangements for meetings until their arrival; else there will be little time left for meetings; for rarely do they remain over two days at one place. The routes are arranged in the WATCH TOWER office, and the time apportioned according to circumstances and interest—sometimes but one day at a place. These "pilgrims" are not slothful, but fervent in spirit serving the Lord; so arrange for two or three meetings each day, as will suit your convenience. Improve such opportunities for having your friends and neighbors, whom you have been trying to interest by conversations and reading matter, hear a connected delineation of the Plan of the Ages from the Chart of the Ages. We commend to you as a privilege the entertainment of these brethren of whose coming we send you notification (Heb. 13:2; Rom. 12:4-18); but they do not take up collections, all needful expenses being provided from the Tract Fund.
