BAPTISMS IN BATTLE CREEK.

By George I. Butler

Last Sabbath, nine more went forward in the ordinance of baptism. The ordinance was administered by Eld. Ballou. This makes forty-four who have been baptized within a few weeks; and still others are to be accepted in the near future. These additions are nearly all the result of the lectures and revival work of the recent past. In all, there have been about one hundred additions to the Battle Creek church within the last four months, over fifty by letter, the rest by profession. The church now numbers about six hundred. The missionary efforts of the church have contributed much to this result. G. I. B.

Chicago Mission Relocates to Vincennes Avenue

  • The location of the Chicago mission is changed from 219 W. Madison St., to 3,653 Vincennes Ave., which latter will, till further notice, be the address of those connected with that mission.

EAST AND WEST.

Wednesday evening, May 6, Eld. S. H. Lane and wife, and Eld. R. F. Andrews, left Battle Creek, to enter upon their labor in behalf of the cause in the British Isles. They were accompanied by Prof. E. Barnes and wife, of the College, Bro. B. going to make a brief visit to his friends and native place in England, intending to return by the opening of the next College year. About the same time their ship was to sail from New York, the steamer which is to take the missionaries, Eld. Haskell, Eld. Israel, Eld. Corliss and wife, and Bro. Arnold across the Pacific to Australia, was to set sail from San Francisco. These two companies are now out upon the deep, one crossing the Atlantic to England, the other the Pacific to Australia. Thus the workers are going east and west. Follow them with your prayers.

KNEE DEEP.

Said Neal Dow, “We sowed Maine knee deep with temperance tracts, and then got the Maine law.” So must we sow the whole country knee deep with Sabbath tracts and Sabbath literature of all kinds, not to procure a Sabbath law, nor to prevent the Sunday law, but to make all men know the true state of this question, and to save the honest in the coming issue.
Every conceivable invention against the Sabbath truth, is met in our various publications. When our brethren meet with these objections, let them scatter the tracts which refute them. The most opponents can now do is to ring the changes on the objections already brought out. This an eastern paper has been doing on the subject of the two covenants; and a request has been sent to this office that the argument be answered. We have tracts on that subject which fully examine and disprove all inference that can be drawn against the Sabbath from the subject of the two covenants. And so of other arguments and objections. Scatter the tracts. And let this STUPENDOUS FICTION that Sunday-keeping finds any countenance in the word of the Lord be exploded through all the land.

Testimony for the Church, Number 32

By Editor

TESTIMONY NO. 32.

We are happy to announce that another work by sister White, “Testimony for the Church, Number 32,” has just been issued from the Pacific Press, Oakland, Cal. It is a work of 238 pages, neatly bound in muslin. Of the nature of the work it is not necessary to speak. Like all its predecessors in the series, it is replete with instruction, counsel, and admonition, most pertinent and timely. The scope of the work will be best understood from a list of the subjects upon which it treats, which we herewith present:—
“The Work of the Gospel Minister—Christian Growth—Faithfulness in the Work of God—Influence of Unbelief—Deceitfulness of Sin—Criticising Ministers—Fidelity and Perseverance Needed—Sinfulness of Repining—‘Praise Ye the Lord’—Parental Responsibility—The Training of Children—Christian Forbearance—Worldly Ambition—Love Among Brethren—Redeeming the Time—The Manufacture of Wine and Cider—Marriage with Unbelievers—The Support of City Missions—The True Missionary Spirit—Young Men as Missionaries—Importance of the Canvassing Work—The Publishing Work—Business and Religion—Worldly-Mindedness a Snare—Responsibilities of the Physician—The Coming Crisis—The Church the Light of the World—Joshua and the Angel.”
These, the reader will perceive, are all live topics of great interest and importance. All will want to procure and read the book at once. Orders may be sent to the Pacific Press, Oakland, Cal., or REVIEW AND HERALD, Battle Creek, Mich.

A REQUEST.

BRO. H. D. HOLLENBECK, of Iowa, has entered enthusiastically into the canvass for “Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation.” And strange as it may seem, considering his total loss of eye-sight, he has already achieved a marked success in this direction. But, of course, in his condition, he needs an assistant to go with him, who is an intelligent, reliable person, who will not be liable to leave him when he most needs his help. Heretofore he has been obliged to depend on boys whose services were only temporarily secured; and this he finds very disadvantageous, and sometimes quite annoying. We are satisfied that some young person of suitable qualifications could do a good work by going to the help of Bro. H. He offers $20 per month as compensation. He wishes to secure the services of some such person; and his request is that if any one is willing to assist him he will correspond with him at once, as he desires to go on as rapidly as possible in this work in which his whole heart is becoming enlisted. Address H. D. Hollenbeck, Box 31, Marion, Iowa.

OUR PROPHETIC AND LAW-OF-GOD CHARTS.

By G. I. B.

WE have on hand at the REVIEW Office, a large number of these excellent charts, which should be scattered in all directions among our brethren. The time was when nearly all S. D. Adventists had copies of these hanging in their houses. This was so almost universally twelve or fifteen years ago. Many an interesting conversation was brought about by their presence in the houses. Strangers coming in would inquire concerning the significance of those beasts upon the chart, and those strange figures—something they had never before seen. Some read the law of God for perhaps the first time as it hung there upon the wall.
Of late years these precious charts are not seen so much. Perhaps they are not artistic enough for some of our nicely furnished houses. The old copies of these charts in many houses, after hanging for a term of years, needed replacing, on account of the effects of time. We have clean, well finished new ones to take the place of these. It seems most fitting that the prophetic and the law-of-God chart should hang in the houses of those who believe in the important truths brought to view in them. They are constant reminders of the great fundamental doctrines of our faith.
There are many of our ministers who need new copies to replace the old ones which show the effect of wear, and are sometimes discolored by contact with rain while the minister travels from place to place. We have sometimes been in camp-meetings, when needing charts for some important discourse, and we were unable to find a neat, clean looking chart upon the ground, and have had to take some dingy, discolored copy which had stood the wear and tear of half a dozen years or more. We believe it would be well to make an effort at our camp-meetings to dispose of many copies of these precious charts, which contain an epitome of the present truth. Some of the most important truths in the word of God are brought to view on them. We hope our Conferences will all see that they have a supply on hand before their camp-meetings; and we trust an effort will be made to sell them. Some four thousand copies were originally printed, and there are some three thousand now on hand. There are two kinds. Those on cloth, without varnish, are $3 per set, with or without rollers. If without rollers, they can be sent by mail, post paid; if with rollers, the purchasers will have to pay express charges. If varnished charts are desired, they are $3.50 per set. These will have to be sent by express, charges to be paid by purchasers. These charts will all be sent at 30% discount by the quantity. G. I. B.

NOTICE

By A. J. Breed

THOSE wishing to rent tents for the Wisconsin camp-meeting to be held at Tomah, June 11–16, should at once notify Dr. W. D. Stillman, Madison, Wis., stating size of tent desired. The tents are 12x12, 14x14, and 12x16 feet. A. J. BREED.

MICHIGAN SABBATH-SCHOOLS.

By M. B. Miller

We would recommend the schools of our State to give the Responsive Exercise, that appeared in a recent number of the REVIEW, a trial for the remainder of this quarter. Copies can be obtained at 25 cts. per hundred, by addressing REVIEW AND HERALD, Battle Creek, Mich. To the schools who get them we would say, Be thorough in your use of them, so that at the end of the quarter, both superintendent and scholars may be able to repeat the entire exercise from memory.
M. B. MILLER, Pres. Mich. S. S. Ass'n.

THE LOST-TIME QUESTION.

By Dudley Marvin Canright

BY ELD. D. M. CANRIGHT.
A TRACT of 24 pages, which completely explodes the fallacy that somewhere between creation and the present time a day has been lost, so that we cannot now tell which is the original day of the Sabbath. The tract gives eminent rabbinical and astronomical testimony from living witnesses, showing the utter impossibility of losing a day.
Single copies, post-paid, 3 cts. Discount by the quantity.
Address, REVIEW & HERALD, Battle Creek, Mich.
