{SpeoiEiJ. ComTbinatioML Offer RECORDS OF THE PAST and BffiLIOTHECA SACRA Records of the Past is a strictly scientific publication, but we realize that a large number of the Laity, as well as the Clergy are interested in the great religious and social questions that are not, and cannot be, discussed within the limits of the popular magazines published in this country. Bibliotheca Sacra is now in its 73d year, and is the oldest quarterly published in the United States. The contributors embrace many of the most prominent men of the religious bodies of America and Europe. Under the able editorship of the Rev. Prof. George Frederick Wright, D.D., LL.D., of Oberlin College, it has reached the highest standard of scholarship, and the widest treat- ment of the great social and religious questions of the day. We are able to make a clubbing rate with Bibliotheca Sacra exceedingly favorable to the Clergy and Laity, Public Libraries and Reading Rooms, and will send to new subscribers the two periodicals for 1903 for $}, thereby saving to the subscriber $2 on the two publications. The annual subscription of Records of the Past being $2, and the Bibliotheca Sacra $3. Present subscribers to Records of the Past can have Bibliotheca Sacra for 1903, by remitting to Records of the Past Exploration Society ^2.50. The renewal clubbing rate to the two periodicals for 1903, will be $4. Bibliotheca Sacra is published quarterly at Oberlin, Ohio, on the first of January, April, July and October. Each issue contains 200 octavo pages.
