BIBLES

'l'he

Bible

because

of

its

binding

has

ahyu~'s

been

asso

ciated

with

the

ecclesiastics.

Therefore

the

Bible

has

be

come

a

reproach

in

the

eyes

of

many

people.

There

seemed

no

good

reason

why

the

Bible

should

not

be

bound

as

other

books

are

bound.

It

is

the

Word

of

God,

and

the

people

should

be

jlHluccd

to

love

it.

The

SOCIETY

has

arranged

to

furnish

Bibles

IMPORTANT

Time

and

again

we

have

called

the

attention

of

our

readers

not

to

remit

currency

in

envelopes.

It

is

a

temptation

to

men

to

steal.

A

man

who

has

been

in

the

Postal

service

forty·two

years

has

been

arrested

and

will

doubtless

go

to

prison

because

he

opened

our

mail

and

was

caught

at

it

by

the

officials.

Not

is

it

a

temptation

to

weak

men,

but

~"OU
