The “Signs of the Times” for July

By Editor

“THE AMERICAN BIRTHRIGHT OF RELIGIOUS LIBERTY,” in the July number of the Signs of the Times Monthly, is a synopsis of Mrs. Lulu Wightman’s lecture before the Missouri Legislature, and in other capital cities of the Central States. It is well illustrated, and will be a selling feature of this number.

“Is Liberty a Dream?” by M. C. Wilcox, strikingly illustrated by a cartoon of the statue of liberty being drawn from her pedestal by college professors, shows the attitude of leading college men toward the principles of religious liberty as expressed in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

“It Is Finished,” by Mrs. E. G. White, touchingly shows what was really comprehended in those last words on the cross.

“The Turning of the Tide,” by Geo. A. Snyder, sets forth the great events in connection with the rise of religious freedom in the light of prophecy.

Other articles on this and other phases of the message; the excellent home, temperance, and Bible-study features make this a number that will win its way among the people.

The cover is in red, white, and blue.

One sister in Canada writes:— “God wonderfully helped me this month. I sold forty Signs of the Times each day I went out. Please send me a hundred more. I must tell you that there are a great many people in Toronto who like that magazine. I have had a blessed experience in selling them, and also a blessed chance of telling the people the truth.”

Wouldn’t you like to experience more of this joy which accompanies definite service? This July number will be a beautiful one with which to start.

One hundred copies cost four dollars. You sell them for ten dollars. Order of your tract society, which will give you sample canvass, and help you in starting. Address Signs of the Times, Mountain View, Cal.

Obituaries

STAINES.—Died at the Hillcrest School Farm, near Nashville, Tenn., Harvey Robert, the infant son of Prof. and Mrs. O. R. Staines. This little one was born Nov. 5, 1908, and died May 14, 1909, aged six months and nine days. The funeral service was conducted by the writer, words of comfort being spoken from Jer. 31:15, 16. Percy T. Magan.

LOCKE.—Died near Bodie, Wash., April 10, 1909, our dear mother, Elizabeth Locke. Mother had been a sufferer with asthma for the last six or eight years, but bore it all with patience, never complaining. Living where she could not attend any of our meetings, she had a strong trust in the Lord. We miss her much, but know, if faithful, we will meet when Jesus comes. Myra Wheaton.

BELLAH.—Fell asleep in Jesus at her home near Poplar Bluff, Mo., Feb. 9, 1909, Nancy R. Bellah, aged seventy-six years and one day. She embraced the truth under the labors of Elder J. G. Wood and his assistants in 1888, and remained a faithful member until her death. One son and one daughter survive her, she having previously laid to rest three sons and one daughter, and her companion, who was also united with her in the blessed truth. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer. C. O. Gerhart.

GRAHAM.—Sister Dora Viola, daughter of John H. and Eva S. Graham, died at the home of her parents at Toluca, N. C., May 29, 1909, aged twenty-one years and twenty-eight days. She was born in Moline, Kan., May 1, 1888, and joined the church at that place when but thirteen years old. She lived a consistent Christian life, giving promise of much usefulness in Christian work. Most of the last years of her life were given to teaching and spreading the pages of present truth. Through weeks of intense suffering she manifested wonderful patience, and at noon of the Sabbath she loved so well, she fell asleep. We laid her to rest by the side of her brother Frank who preceded her one year, one month, and three days. D. A. Shields.

BROWN.—Dorothy Lucille, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert C. Brown, was born in Topeka, Kan., May 15, 1904, and died in Battle Creek, Mich., of enteritis, May 24, 1909, aged five years and nine days. Dorothy was of a sweet disposition, and would forego her pleasures and comforts to please and comfort others. During her sickness, of one week's duration, she suffered intensely, yet without a murmur or complaint, and when she was told she could not recover, said, “I will sleep in the earth till Jesus comes and wakes me up.” She leaves a father, mother, two brothers, relatives, and friends to mourn, but they mourn not as those who have no hope. Words of comfort were spoken from Jer. 31:15-17. Interment in Oak Hill Cemetery. W. C. Hebner.

ANDREWS.—Died at his home in Easton, Pa., Feb. 12, 1909, Daniel L. Andrews, aged 67 years, 2 months, and 25 days. Brother Andrews became a Christian in his young manhood, and was an active member of the Evangelical Church until about ten years ago, when he, with his daughter, Sister Sue M. Andrews, now State Sabbath-school secretary of the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference, embraced the third angel's message, while attending the tent-meetings conducted by Elder J. H. Schilling, now laboring in Germany. Brother Andrews was the deacon of the Easton church, in which capacity his faithful service and Christian character won for him the love and esteem of his brethren and sisters. Last June, Brother Andrews sustained a severe injury, while at his usual employment, from which he never recovered, and the development of later organic symptoms showed that he had cancer of the stomach; and though he suffered much, he bore it with patience and Christian resignation. During the eight months of his illness, on several occasions severe hemorrhages summoned the family to his bedside, only to witness again his “meek and quiet resignation, and that holy triumph of God's child on the bed of death.” Besides a devoted wife, seven children are left to mourn their loss. The funeral service was conducted by the writer, speaking words of comfort from Ps. 17:15, assisted by the Rev. Chas. Bohner, the pastor of the Evangelical Church, who frequently visited Brother Andrews during his illness. Chas. Baierle.

BISBEE.—Sister Phoebe D. Overton Bisbee was born in Iowa, Nov. 12, 1860, and died of consumption, at her home in Covina, Cal., May 9, 1909. She accepted present truth at the age of thirteen years, and was a faithful member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church until her death. She leaves an aged husband to mourn his loss. The funeral was conducted by the writer, assisted by the Christian minister of the place. J. W. Adams.

COOPER.—Sister Isabella Cooper fell asleep May 12, 1909, at Madison, Wis., after a few days' illness. She was born in Low Green, near Leeds, England, in June, 1822. She was married to Joseph Cooper, of Skipton, England, in 1843. He came to this country in 1848, and the family joined him in 1849. A few years later the family moved to Madison. Ten children were born to them, only three of whom are now living. Sister Cooper at heart was a Seventh-day Adventist, although she never united with the church. The services were held in the home, by the writer, assisted by Elder F. F. Stebbeds, chaplain of the Madison Sanitarium. Text was James 4:14. H. W. Reed.

STRACHAN.—Annie Strachan died at Sweetwaters, Natal, South Africa, Dec. 14, 1908, aged forty years. She accepted the truth in 1896 in King William's Town, and moved to Johannesburg just after the Boer war. Her husband died shortly after, leaving his widow with a family of four young children. By hard work and persevering energy, she built up a comfortable little home, which was always open to our workers and others passing through that city. She also was liberal in paying her tithes and offerings. She leaves four children to mourn their loss, having placed them all, with her property, under the guardianship of the conference. The funeral service was conducted by the writer at the Pietermaritzburg Cemetery in the presence of a respectful attendance. H. J. Edmed.

NELSON.—Mary Elizabeth Larsen, née Nelson, was born in Denmark, Sept. 14, 1838, and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. P. M. Johnson, May 16, 1909. In the year 1864 she came with her parents to this country, settling in Greenville, Mich., where she remained until March 9, 1886, when she was united in marriage to Mr. Niels Larsen. To them were born three children, two daughters and one son. The deceased was a great sufferer, yet she never murmured nor complained. She was of a loving and kind disposition, and bore her suffering with Christian fortitude, looking for her reward in the life to come. Her death is mourned by an aged husband, one daughter, one son, one grandson, two sisters, one brother, and many other relatives and friends. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer. J. M. Wilbur.

TISDALE.—Willie John Tisdale, daughter of Lew and Willie Tisdale, died in Memphis, Tenn., April 13, aged eight years and one month. The cause of her death was an unusual and most painful disease of the bones. Her illness lasted only two weeks, but in that time two surgical operations were performed, and everything that the best medical and surgical skill could do was done to save her life. The parents bow in reverent submission to him who gave and hath taken away, knowing that even in this sad providence he doeth all things well. Her father is one of the prominent business men of Memphis, widely known and universally respected. The mother, Sister Willie Tisdale, is an earnest Seventh-day Adventist, having been a member of the church in Memphis for several years. The funeral was largely attended. Words of comfort were spoken from Jer. 31:15-17, by the writer. J. S. Washburn.

Where the June “Life and Health” Went

The following list shows the circulation, by States and countries, of the June number of Life and Health. The figures inside the parentheses indicate the number of copies of the May edition circulated in the States named. The circulation for April will be found on page 2 (third column) of the REVIEW for June 10, 1909.

In these lists are included the regular subscribers and the number of copies sold by agents, in each State. It should also be remembered that often a company of agents from one State sells thousands of copies in a neighboring State. Again, the records of several of the States were cut down materially by the absence of their best agents who attended the General Conference. Note Indiana, for instance, which circulated the second highest number of the May number.

Which States will lead in the circulation of the July number? Orders for over 10,000 copies of this beautiful number were received before June 17. And this is hardly a beginning.

(1) California, 6,136 copies (5,247); (2) Illinois, 4,345 (2,498); (3) Pennsylvania, 3,952 (676); (4) Massachusetts, 3,274 (1,117); (5) New York, 3,073 (1,144); (6) Nebraska, 3,032 (925); (7) Washington, 2,902 (1,118); (8) Maryland, 2,574 (2,171); (9) Georgia, 2,404 (3,889); (10) Ohio, 1,996 (464); (11) Michigan, 1,952 (775); (12) Tennessee, 1,855 (1,349); (13) Iowa, 1,702 (1,677); (14) Wisconsin, 1,659 (377); (15) Texas, 1,619 (213); (16) New Jersey, 1,548 (125); (17) District of Columbia, 1,405 (285); (18) Idaho, 1,371 (264); (19) Kentucky, 1,021 (571); (20) Oregon, 942 (558); (21) Colorado, 938 (254); (22) Canada, 887 (535); (23) Virginia, 883 (96); (24) Minnesota, 867 (703); (25) Missouri, 830 (160); (26) Oklahoma, 737 (866); (27) West Virginia, 690 (67); (28) Indiana, 687 (4,437); (29) Maine, 635 (328); (30) Louisiana, 515 (305); (31) Vermont, 414 (36); (32) Connecticut, 411 (81); (33) Kansas, 398 (479); (34) North Dakota, 392 (152); (35) Arkansas, 168 (78); (36) New Hampshire, 152 (129); (37) North Carolina, 151 (25); (38) New Mexico, 143 (16); (39) Arizona, 142 (11); (40) Mississippi, 127 (27); (41) South Dakota, 104 (45); (42) Delaware, 102 (2); (43) Alabama, 92 (172); (44) Montana, 66 (57); (45) Florida, 61 (73); (46) Nevada, 57 (63); (47) South Carolina, 51 (6); (48) Utah, 50 (58); (49) Wyoming, 48 (8); (50) Hawaiian Territory, 13 (—); (51) Rhode Island, 10 (210); (52) Panama, 6; (53) Mexico, 5; (54) Cuba, 5.

It is encouraging, indeed, to note that the June circulation shows a substantial gain in forty-one of the States, nine only showing any loss. These forty-one States circulated 59,467 copies of the June number, as compared with 35,218 copies of the May issue, a gain of 24,249 copies, or an average gain of 591 copies for each State. The entire May edition (40,000 copies) was exhausted May 6. The June edition (60,000 copies) was sold by June 6.

Join our large force of nearly 3,000 agents now handling Life and Health, Liberty magazine, and the Temperance number of the Youth’s Instructor. Or, perhaps, you would prefer to handle the Protestant Magazine.

Biographical Sketch and Missionary Departure

A BIOGRAPHICAL sketch of the late Dr. A. H. Lewis, well known to a good number of the readers of the REVIEW as for many years a leader among the Seventh-day Baptists, has been prepared by Dr. T. L. Gardiner, an intimate associate of Dr. Lewis and his successor as editor of the Sabbath Recorder. Dr. Gardiner has written appreciatively of his friend and colaborer, and the book is well printed, including an excellent portrait of Dr. Lewis. Price, cloth, seventy-five cents; leather, one dollar. Address The Sabbath Recorder, Plainfield, N. J.

BROTHER H. TONJES, of Greater New York, sailed for Germany June 15, en route to Brazil, where he will engage in the book work, in response to a long-continued call for a general agent in that field. Brother Tonjes was appointed last winter, but his release could not be arranged for until recently.

E. T. Wilson Leaves for Peru

LAST week Brother E. T. Wilson, of the Foreign Mission Seminary, under appointment to Peru, left with his family for Missouri, where he will engage in canvassing until the Mission Board treasury is able to send him to South America.

W. A. Sweany Sails for Bahamas

THIS week Elder W. A. Sweany and family sailed from New York for the Bahamas. These islands were formerly in the West Indian Union Conference territory, but are now under the care of the Southeastern Union Conference.

Dr. Vasenius Appointed to Abyssinia

Last week Dr. F. W. Vasenius left Washington for New York, expecting to sail within a few days for Denmark. Dr. Vasenius came to this country from Finland, several years ago, to take a medical course. He was graduated this month from the George Washington University, and is under appointment to the Abyssinian Mission. He will go forward to that field after a short stay at the Denmark sanitarium.

O. Shulz Sails for Bolivia

ON June 20, from New York, Brother O. Shulz, of the Foreign Mission Seminary, sailed for Buenos Aires, South America, under appointment to Bolivia. He will spend some months in the study of Spanish at the Argentine school, before proceeding to his field. A personal loan, from one of the South American delegates, permitted Brother Shulz to get off thus early.

Tuberculosis Sanatorium Treatment

By Editor

Dr. George H. Heald, editor of Life and Health, desires the attention of our physicians called to an article in the Medical Record of June 12, by Dr. Maurice Feshberg, on “The Inadequacy of Sanatorium Treatment for Tuberculosis.” The magazine may be obtained from William Wood & Co., 51 Fifth Ave., New York; price fifteen cents a copy.

General Conference Committee Members Traveling

NEARLY all those who came to Washington to attend the General Conference have returned to their various fields, and now the resident members of the General Conference Committee are responding to calls to attend camp-meetings. Elder G. B. Thompson went last week to the Northern Union Conference, and Elder G. A. Irwin left on Monday of this week for the meetings in the Western Canadian Union Conference.

Watson’s Political and Economic Hand-Book

WATSON'S "Political and Economic Hand-book" is a large pamphlet of three hundred fifty-eight pages, of which the author says: "I have tried to make it an armory from which reformers can draw every weapon of offense and defense." Information from many sources and covering many subjects, including some facts relating to the attitude of the Roman Catholic Church on the question of the relation between the church and the state has been brought together in this publication. Price, one dollar. Address Thos. E. Watson, Thomson, Ga.

A Patriotic Program

IN the Instructor of June 22 is given material for a patriotic program for our Missionary Volunteer societies or churches. Our young people need to study the principles of liberty which are being so subtly assailed in these days. The message of the third angel is a warning against the worship of the beast and his image. Let all our churches improve opportunities like these.

Committee Actions

By W. A. SPICER

THE General Conference Committee has continued dealing with matters left over from the General Conference. Appointments for India and Japan are not yet made. Much to the regret of all, himself included, Brother J. L. Shaw has been advised not to return to India, on account of his health, and another has been invited to take the superintendency of the field. The name we shall not announce until consent is given.

Recommendations have been made as follows, it being understood that these appointments do not become operative until the Mission Board is able to make all arrangements for carrying out the recommendations:—

L. F. Hansen and wife, formerly of India, to the Atlantic Union Conference.

Wm. Steele, formerly of Ecuador, to Porto Rico.

C. F. Innis, of Western Colorado, to Panama.

C. J. Foster, of Takoma Park, to Chile, South America.

J. W. Hofstra, of West Michigan, to Java, East Indies.

Prof. R. G. Ryan and wife, of Shenandoah Valley Training Academy, Virginia, to South Africa.

J. A. Morrow, of Bermuda Islands, to Central Union Conference.

F. O. Raymond, of the Washington Branch Sanitarium, to India.

H. A. Oberg, of Walla Walla College, to Korea.

C. T. Everson, of Rome, to Italian work in New York City, and other American cities.

L. Zecchetto, of New York City, to Italy.

C. Sparks, of Nebraska, to China.

S. A. Nagel, of Loma Linda, to China.

O. A. Hall, of Nebraska, to China.

Fred Lee, of the Foreign Mission Seminary, to China.

Silas Davis, of Southern California, to China.

B. M. Garton, of Nebraska, to China.

Dr. A. L. Gregory, of South America, to Mexico.

Prof. B. F. Machlan, of South Lancaster Academy, to Avondale School, Australia.

Prof. C. W. Irwin, of Avondale School, Australia, to California.

It is recommended that the Italian paper published in New York be discontinued, and that the one published in Rome be the Italian paper for the denomination.

Again let it be emphasized that the Mission Board has reached the limit of its finances. No new work can be undertaken until new resources flow in. The offering, Sabbath, July 3, ought to be but the beginning of a resolute effort to follow the Lord’s call into the fields.

W. A. SPICER, Secretary.
