Sunday, Oct. 4, began meetings in an entirely new place in the town of Colden. The school-house was filled, so that extra seats were required, and there was a marked attention to the word spoken. Tracts have been scattered here by faithful hands, and the way is thus opened, and three, I understand, have embraced the Sabbath truth by reading. Pray, brethren, that God will guide and bless our effort.

Mrs. Geo. Hobart on Keeping the Sabbath Faith
By Mrs. Geo. Hobart
MRS. GEO. HOBART writes from St. Law. Co., N. Y.: Through the medium of some kind friend, I have had the pleasure of reading, for the last six months, that blessed paper, the REVIEW, and the Lord willing I will never again be without it. I took a stand for the Lord and his Sabbath last December, through the teaching of Eld. C. O. Taylor, and while I live, I mean to keep the faith and make full preparation for a home in this earth made new. Blessed thought! Can I do it? If faithful, yes. Pray that I be faithful. My father, mother, sister, and myself, are all there are of like precious faith in this place. Pray for us, that we faint not on our journey to Mount Zion.
The Pope’s Residence.
By Editor
The Vatican, the official residence of the pope, stands directly against the side of St. Peter’s church, under the guns of the castle of St. Angelo; and it is the most extensive castle in the world. In a building on this site Charlemagne had quarters when in Rome. The larger part of this palace was built about the time Columbus was seeking America. The edifice is a vast block, shaped like the letter L, and contains about twenty courts open to the sky, and eleven thousand halls, chapels, saloons, and apartments. The main entrance portal of the Vatican is under a mighty Doric colonnade, which cost 850,000 scudi. One of the halls in the Vatican is 2,131 feet long and twenty-seven feet wide. The library of the Vatican possesses 24,000 manuscripts, 50,000 printed books, and over 2,000 volumes of papal archives, which last comprise the written history of this great branch of the nominal church. An armory, a mint, a magnificent collection of pictures, a still more wonderful collection of ancient sculpture and inscriptions, and a government manufactory of mosaic, are included in this palace; there are no less than ten thousand different shades of colored glass used in the mosaic factory of the Vatican. Michael Angelo and Raphael executed their great works upon the walls of the palace.—Ed.
Temple of the Goddess Diana.
Mr. J. T. Wood, who is conducting the excavations on the site of the ancient temple of the “Great Goddess Diana” at Ephesus, sends home an interesting report of progress, under date of January 22.
The temple is found to measure 163 ft. 9½ in., by 342 ft. 6½ in.; the platform on which it was raised, 239 ft. 4½ in., by 419 ft. 1½ in., measured on the lowest step. The length here given, nearly accords with that given by Pliny, viz., 425 Roman feet; the ascertained width exceeds Pliny’s dimension of 220 ft., which dimension must have, therefore, lost something in transcript from the original. An element of great beauty had almost escaped discovery, i. e., the plentiful use of gold in the decoration of the temple. One fragment was fortunately found composed of two astragals, between which a narrow slip of lead was doubled in, in the fold of which was inserted a narrow strip of gold which formed a fillet of gold, between the astragals. The beauty of the temple was, moreover, heightened by the use of brilliant colors, remains of which are found in numerous fragments, blue, red, and yellow being readily distinguished—blue for the background of enrichments and sculpture in relief, and the yellow for the parts requiring greater prominence. A number of the columns are inscribed on their bases, showing that they were dedicated to Artemis by various persons or communities. The foundations of the great altar in the Cella have also been further explored, and the position of the statue of the goddess has been, therefore, decided.
Obituary Notices.
By M. M. Brown
“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”
DIED, at Becket Center, Sept. 20, 1874, Miss Emily Phinney, aged 38 years, 1 month, and 6 days. For many years she has been a true follower of our Lord, trusting in a Saviour’s love. The last four years, she has been confined to her bed, a great sufferer, caused by being thrown from a wagon on returning from the church of which she was a member, and where she loved to go. Through all her sufferings, she felt that Christ was precious. Funeral discourse by Rev. E. Dow, from Ps. 36: 7.

Advent Preachers Praised in Hubbardston Advertiser
The Advertiser of Sept. 10, 1874, published in Hubbardston, Mich., speaks of our brethren now laboring in that vicinity as follows:—
“The Advent preachers, Messrs. Burrill and VanDusen, have concluded to remain in and about Carson all winter. By their gentlemanly conduct they have gained hosts of friends. The secret of their success lies in the fact that they take a text and stick to it. They visit the sick; and even the poor are not overlooked in their ministrations. It would be well if some of the clergymen in other denominations would pattern after them in this respect.”
Our Health Almanac.
By Editor
The friends of health reform will be glad to know that the Hygienic Family Almanac for 1875 is now ready. It has fifty-two large, fair, well-executed pages, and contains most valuable reading on the subject of health, to the amount of a thirty-two page tract, besides that which usually pertains to an almanac. It is just the thing to place at the fireside of 25,000 families. Nothing can possibly be better to hand to, or send by mail to, your friends, before whom you wish to let shine rays of light preparatory to their more full investigation of the great health subject.
The Sanitarium for each month in the whole year, which gives special directions relative to food, clothing, cleanliness of person, premises, &c., is invaluable. It has three pages of recipes for cooking, which make it almost a complete kitchen guide; and more than a page on bathing, which goes far in giving a system of home treatment. Besides these, the Almanac contains able articles on the following subjects:—
What Health Reform Is Not—What Health Reform Is—Thirty Shots at Tobacco-Using—A Live Hog Examined—Why Tea and Coffee Are Unwholesome Beverages—Is It Better?—The Terrible Trichinæ—Hygiene of the Hair—Keep Clean.
Besides the Calendar for each of the twelve months, the Sanitarium for each month, and the articles indicated by the above-given titles, there are five pages of advertisements of the Western Health Reform Institute, located at Battle Creek, Mich., the HEALTH REFORMER, Catalogue of Health Books published at the REFORMER Office, Kedzie Water Filter, the Fountain Syringe, Skirt Supporter, Honeywell's Crackers, and Schumacher's staples of hygienic living.
For several years the publishers of the HEALTH REFORMER and managers of the “Health Reform Institute,” have meditated the publication of a series of annual calendars; but the constant press of more urgent matters has made the enterprise impracticable until the present, so that we now present the first of this long-contemplated series. For many years the “Family Almanac” has been a favorite and very efficient means through which quacks and charlatans have sought to place before the public deceptive advertisements of their wares and nostrums. Such is in no sense the object of the present publication. Its primary design is to call the attention of the people to a subject the importance of which is hardly susceptible of overestimation; viz., that of health reform. The object of this publication being, as before remarked, the promulgation of reformatory ideas, chiefly pertaining to health, we feel no hesitation in calling upon the friends of the cause everywhere to assist in its extensive circulation.
Single copies sent by mail, 10 cents; fifteen copies for $1.00. Special terms to agents and canvassers.

The Biblical Institute.
By T. Smith; S. Brownsberger; Wm. Russell
It is decided to commence the series of Lectures of the Biblical Institute on Tuesday evening, Dec. 13.
The work proposed to be done is to give instruction theoretical and practical in regard to the presentation of the present truth before the people, as Teachers’ Institutes give instruction in regard to the theory and practice of teaching.
The object to be accomplished is to aid our teachers in a better preparation for the work of publicly presenting the truth, and to instruct such as may be desirous of at once engaging in that work, who know not how to spend a long time in preparing. The exercises will consist of, say two lectures each day, with reviews and examinations; and the time employed will be about three weeks.
Once an attempt was made to have such lectures in connection with our General Conference; but it was a failure from the fact that those upon whom the burden of speaking necessarily fell, were completely overwhelmed with other duties. Now it is proposed that all who engage in this shall make this their whole business, during the time employed, and thus it may be made a success.
With reference to those who may attend it is proposed—
1. That such as are able, meet all their own expenses, which will be simply their fare, and a moderate price for board, nothing being charged for the lectures.
2. That such as are able only to pay their fare to and from the place, will be entertained by the Battle Creek church while here free of charge; provided that, in case they are not already licensed preachers, they bring from their church or Conference, a paper recommending their attendance.
3. That such as are not able to pay their own traveling expenses, receive help from their churches or Conferences, if in the judgment of said churches or Conferences they should attend.
Now we want to know how many would like to attend such an Institute as is here proposed. We want to hear from any, old or young, who are in favor of such a movement, that we may know how far it is indorsed by our people. We want to hear from churches or Conferences in regard to any whom they can recommend. Write one and all. Speak freely. Do not delay. The work, the truth, the times, demand enthusiasm.
We the undersigned were appointed a committee, Sept. 26, by the Battle Creek church, through its chairman, Bro. White, to call the attention of our people to this matter, and we respectfully submit the foregoing, hoping for an early response.
Address Eld. James White, Battle Creek, Mich.

Eld. Himes Answers Reports Circulating Against Him
By Editor
Notice is given in this number of the October issue of Himes' Journal, in which he makes answer to the reports that have for some time past been in circulation against him. We have purposely refrained from saying anything in regard to these reports, till both sides should be heard. Whatever may be the character of Eld. Himes, in point of moral and Christian rectitude, as it shall appear in the last great Judgment, we have been confident that the men who were most active in this movement against him, were base enough to descend to almost anything to carry their points. We wish him all success in his efforts to obtain justice, knowing that if he ever gets it from the parties referred to, it will be not as a free offering on Christian principle, but as a victory wrenched from them, after a desperate struggle.
The Covenant.
By T. S.
Mr. BINGMAN, an educated Disciple, speaking of the two covenants says that diatheke is the Greek word for a commanded covenant, but suntheke for an agreement covenant. How is this? S. OSBORN.
In reply to the foregoing we subjoin the definition given to both these words by Liddell and Scott.
“Diatheke: a disposition, esp. of property by will; a will and testament. II. mystic deposits on which the common weal depended, probably, oracles. III. a convention, arrangement between two parties, covenant. See LXX., N. T., and Eccl. dispensation, N. T.: he Kaine Diatheke, the New Testament; he palaia diatheke, the old dispensation, i. e., the Old Testament applied to the covenant in the books of Moses, N. T.”
“Suntheke; a putting together: esp. of words and sentences, a composition. II. an agreement, arrangement, convention, a contract covenant, treaty; usually in plural, articles of agreement, heads of a covenant.”
It will be seen from the foregoing that these words have a common definition of an agreement, arrangement or covenant between two parties; and all the difference is that diatheke is applied also to a will testament or dispensation; while suntheke has no such definition. T. S.
Himes’ Defense.
The Journal of J. V. Himes for October, will contain the first four chapters of the history of the scandals which have been connected with his name during the last four or five years. All persons wishing to know the facts in the case should send for this number of the Journal. Price ten cents, or four copies for twenty-five cents. Address Wm. H. Spencer, Box 507, Rochester, N. Y., or A. S. Borden, Buchanan, Mich.
Local Advertising.
By Editor
We have printed about 25,000 copies of our Health Almanac. And every line of the type is still up ready to go on the Steam Press to print more. We would be very glad to circulate 100,000 copies by the first of January, 1875.
Here is a grand chance for local advertising. Those who are doing a local business will find it greatly to their advantage to advertise through the Hygienic Almanac. We will furnish the Almanac, print an advertising page on colored paper, and bind it in the Almanac, at very low rates. Send for circular immediately which will give our best terms.
Canvassers Wanted.
We want five hundred men and women to enter the field as canvassers for the HEALTH REFORMER, Way of Life, Hygienic Family Physician, Hygienic Almanac, and other health works.
We offer better terms than last year; but cash must accompany all orders. For particulars send for our circular. Be in season.

Wisconsin Tract and Missionary Society Blank Reports
By Mattie A. Babcock
Wisconsin.
Directors of the Wisconsin T. & M. Society will get blank reports hereafter of the State librarian, N. M. Jordan, Lodi, Columbia Co., Wis.
The first of these texts declares that the elders of Israel saw the God of Israel; and the second says that “no man hath seen God at any time;” and the apparent discrepancy between these, and quite a number of other similar texts, is explained by Ex. 33: 20, which records these words of God to Moses: “Thou canst not see my face; for there shall no man see me and live.” Then Moses was put into a cleft of the rock, and God covered him with his hand as he passed by; then he took away his hand, and Moses beheld his back parts, verse 23, “but my face,” said God, “shall not be seen.” However strong expressions some may have used on discovering that they had come into the personal presence of a divine being, as in Gen. 32: 30, and Judges 13: 22, it is certain that no man in his normal condition has ever seen the face of God, whose unveiled glories would strike us from existence; and to such a vision of God the language of John evidently and consistently refers.
T. BROWN: Thank you for the copy of the little work on “Annihilation” by T. S. La Due, which we have received. We could easily review it as a whole, but probably very few of those who will read that book would ever see the review of it. Answers to all the popular arguments have been fully written out in the different works published on this subject. Let them be circulated. No honest souls can be held in the delusion of error after the truth has once found them. On some of his points we may write some short articles for the paper; for more short-sighted positions or more glaring perversions of Scripture than some of his, we rarely meet. U. S.
A blue cross on the margin of your paper signifies that your subscription will expire in two weeks, and that an earnest invitation is extended to you to renew at once.
Our P. O. address is Wellsville, Allegany Co., N. Y. John Lindsey, S. A. H. Lindsey.
