II.[In English only.]Prices are terms same as Vol. I. This volume is intended onlyfor those who have carefully and thoroughly studied Vol. I. Allsuch whose interest is awakened, will surely want this volumeand succeeding ones which are in course of preparation, as wellas the regular issues of the WATCH TOWER.FOREIGN TERMS.Though foreign postage is higher, we must not increase theprice; for money elsewhere is more scarce among the poor thanhere, and the poor we want specially to reach, since we knowthat "not many rich or great" are among the Lord's chosen.Our foreign friends may, therefore, hereafter, reckon our termsin English money, thus:--25 cents = 1 shilling. 50 cents = 2 shillings.$1.00 = 4 shillings. $1.25 = 5 shillings. 1.50 = 6 shillings.2.50 = 10 shillings. 3.00 = 12 shillings. 5.00 = 20 shillings.Upon this arrangement the WATCH TOWER will hereafter be2 shillings instead of 3 shillings per year.----------
