SOUTHERN TEACHERS, ATTENTION!

By C. Walter Irwin

PLANS are being formulated for holding a teachers' institute for our Southern teachers sometime during the coming spring or summer. The place will probably be Graysville, Tenn. The institute will last perhaps three or four weeks. It may be best to hold it between the first of May and the middle of July, but the date of convening will be subject to the convenience of the majority of the teachers. Good help will be provided in instruction, and the detailed arrangements will be announced later.

I shall be pleased to receive a personal letter from every teacher in the Southern district, stating the time that would be most convenient for him to attend. After we have heard from all, a date will be appointed that will be the most suitable for the largest number. Let me hear from all immediately, so that no delay may be experienced in appointing the time of the institute. C. WALTER IRWIN.

Graysville, Tenn.

Church School Teachers in Union College District, Attention!

An institute for church school teachers will be held at Union College during the entire spring term of twelve weeks, beginning March 7. This will be the greatest opportunity ever offered to the teachers of Union College district, and one that should be taken advantage of by every church school teacher in the district, and by every one who plans to teach in these schools next year.

There are hundreds of churches in the Conferences connected with Union College. A large number of these are planning for schools next year, and we shall need many more teachers than are now available to supply these schools.

Classes in child study, methods of teaching, special Bible study, nature study, instruction in primary and kindergarten methods, hydrotherapy, and hygienic cookery, will be of great interest and value to all our teachers; and the teachers’ meetings, in which there will be free discussion of all questions pertaining to teaching and church school work, will be simply invaluable.

Let every one who can possibly do so plan to be with us at the opening of the term. We shall regard it as a favor if all who are coming will write us at their earliest convenience. Arrangements can be made for board either in the college or with private families.

For any special information, address W. T. Bland, College View, Neb.

INMAN.—Died near Evart, Mich., Nov. 15, 1900, my sister, Mary E. Inman, aged nearly 55 years. Although for many years a sufferer, her faith never faltered, and it can be truly said that she sleeps in Jesus. The funeral was conducted by Elder Holden (Methodist). MRS. E. E. FENNER.

TAYLOR.—Died Sept. 14, 1900, at the home of her parents in Watsonville, Cal., of consumption, Sister Nellie A. Taylor, aged 34 years. Sister Taylor was long a sufferer from the disease which at last proved fatal. She fell asleep trusting in Jesus. She leaves many relatives. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer. A. J. MORTON.

POST.—Died at Salem Ridge, Wis., of jaundice, Dec. 25, 1900, Mrs. Matilda Post, aged 65 years. Sister Post had been for a number of years a consistent member of the Seventh-day Adventist church at Star, Wis., and died with a bright hope that her part would be in the first resurrection. Words of consolation were offered by the writer, from Num. 23:10. M. N. CAMPBELL.

THOMPSON.—Died at Woodlawn, Ore., Nov. 3, 1900, of malarial fever, Anna Thompson, aged 28 years, 5 months. She had not made a profession of religion, but in her last sickness she gave such evidence of trust in Christ that her friends believe it is well with her. She left two little children to mourn the loss of a mother’s care and love. Funeral services were conducted by the writer. W. W. SHARP.

MONROE.—Fell asleep in Jesus, Jan. 3, 1901, near Lennon, Mich., Gracie Leona, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Monroe, aged 11 years, 16 days. She gave her heart to the Saviour about a year ago, and was a faithful follower of the Master until the last. She had a very affectionate disposition, by which she gained many friends. Words of comfort were spoken from Isa. 25:8, by the writer. S. E. WIGHT.

ROSE.—Died at Kendall, Wis., of cancer, Dec. 23, 1900, Sister Alice J. Rose, aged 48 years, 7 months, 4 days. Sister Rose endured her suffering with true Christian fortitude, and fell asleep with the knowledge that she was resting in Jesus. Of her immediate relatives, a husband, father, three brothers, and a niece remain to mourn. Services were conducted by Elder Shreve and the writer, assisted by the Methodist and Baptist ministers. M. N. CAMPBELL.

He was married to Miss Elizabeth Weed in 1848, and they lived happily together fifty-two years. Early in life he was converted and joined the Wesleyan Methodist Church, in which he lived a faithful member thirty-three years. In 1873 he joined the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and was baptized by Elder James White. He lived true to the Third Angel’s Message to the day of his death. He was a devoted husband, affectionate father, and a kind neighbor. He rests in hope of a part in the first resurrection. Funeral services were conducted by the writer. J. D. VAN HORN.

OWENS.—Died at Clearfield, Pa., Dec. 25, 1900, Mr. J. Chester Owens, aged 20 years. Brother Owens was very early in life impressed with the beauties of Christianity, and when only eight years of age made a complete surrender of his young life, which to the time of his death was an exceptionally consistent one. When eighteen, he determined to engage in active work for the salvation of his fellow men, and at once entered the Battle Creek Sanitarium, with his life-work in view. Ill health, however, prevented the accomplishment of his design, and he was forced to return to his home. His disease was soon recognized as consumption, which continued to prey upon his entire system till he quietly fell asleep in Him who is the resurrection and the life. Remarks were made at the funeral by the writer. CHAS. BAIERLE.

JUST A WORD TO MOTHERS AND TEACHERS

By E. A. Sutherland

The Mental Arithmetic

For Home and School

Useful and Scientific Information Treated Arithmetically.

BY PROF. E. A. SUTHERLAND.

It is with a feeling of much satisfaction, and assurance of appreciation on the part of mothers, teachers, and children that we call the attention of our readers to this new treatise on the subject of Mental Arithmetic; not because of any lack of books treating this subject, but from the fact that this work presents it to the pupil from an entirely new, original, and practical standpoint, yet in harmony with sound mathematical principles, greatly simplified. It is so arranged that every faculty of the mind and each of the senses is exercised in solving the problems, and at the same time the hand acquires the art of executing the science taught. This is the only natural method of teaching mathematics. In other words, it is arithmetic made easy for mothers, teachers, and children.

The book contains preface, giving outline of the history and subject of mathematics; appendix, containing instruction concerning the use of the book; table of contents, 87 lessons, 240 pages, including drills in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, common and decimal fractions, giving practical examples in astronomy, botany, physiology, natural history, carpentry, masonry, farming, percentage, tables of liquid and dry measure, square measure, linear measure, avoirdupois weight, etc., covering the entire field for children.

“The Mental Arithmetic” eliminates objectionable points found in other mathematical works, not using problems referring to traffic in liquor, tobacco, drugs, tea, coffee, candies, and other substances of commercial value that have a tendency to poison the young.

THE MENTAL ARITHMETIC AS VIEWED BY OTHERS.

REVIEW AND HERALD PUB. CO.: “The Mental Arithmetic,” by Prof. E. A. Sutherland, is an arithmetic for the children and other folks in our homes and in our church schools. The book is interesting and valuable, because of the information which it contains. The examples are all composed from the practical things of everyday life; and when you have learned to work the examples, you will also know many practical things about your heart, brain, blood, lungs, victuals, etc., etc. The examples are important facts, and interesting truths. The arithmetic is in itself an interesting reading book for even grown persons. Get it, and see for yourselves. ELDER A. T. JONES.

PROF. E. A. SUTHERLAND: I am greatly pleased with the “Mental Arithmetic.” With my work with children of all grades, and teachers as well, I find there is almost entire absence of familiarity with such everyday necessities as the ruler and tape measure. I notice with pleasure that the aim of the work outlined in the “Mental Arithmetic” is to entirely correct this difficulty, and teach the student, besides the technical knowledge, a vast fund of useful information on practical subjects. I am particularly pleased with the large amount of actual doing that is required of the student in connection with the mental training. This is the true secret of success, and is in harmony with the most approved educational methods. I feel certain that many mothers who have heretofore felt unable to teach their children at home will find in this valuable book just the help they need. EMMA M. LONG.

PROF. E. A. SUTHERLAND: I have had the pleasure of examining your “Mental Arithmetic for the Home and School,” and do not hesitate to say that, to my mind, it represents a distinct and important advance in the method of teaching arithmetic. Your method of dealing with this subject puts arithmetical relations into concrete form in such a simple and practical way that the work can be easily used by any mother who is willing to undertake the task of teaching her children in her own home, which, to my mind, is the ideal method. DR. J. H. KELLOGG.

PROF. E. A. SUTHERLAND: It has been my privilege to examine the “Mental Arithmetic for the Home and School,” and although the book is for children, and the work is mental, simple, and easy, the problems are practical, natural, and useful, being taken from the surroundings of the child in the Christian family and school. Even parents will be interested, while children will be delighted with the study. With this book in hand, no mother can say that she can not teach this subject to her children. JOSEPH H. HAUGHEY.

REVIEW AND HERALD PUB. CO.: There are three points which forcibly impressed me with the value of the “Mental Arithmetic,” by Prof. E. A. Sutherland:— First, the pupil is not burdened with innumerable rules as to how to do, but from the first must learn by doing. Second, there is a practical application of the truths of mathematics. The sum or the product is not the chief aim in working the problem. Third, and best of all, the subject matter is truth, and in harmony with the Word of Truth, which should be the foundation of all our educational work. Thus this practical volume becomes a new and valuable aid to the parent and the Christian teacher in their efforts to teach God's little ones in God's way. S. P. S. EDWARDS.

BEST STORIES FROM THE BEST BOOK

Since its publication, has met with a most gratifying reception. It grows in favor day by day. Everyone is delighted with the book upon first sight, but the more thoroughly they become acquainted with it, the more they realize its inestimable value. We know it is appreciated, from the many kind words our friends have to say concerning it:—

PAW PAW, MICH. The truths presented in this book certainly make it a work that can not fail to bring much-needed light to many who have been reading the Bible for years. It is an excellent help for our canvassers. GEO. MATTESON.

ELLIOTT, PA. I like “Best Stories” very much. It is a ready seller, and an excellent book for young persons to sell. F. E. PAINTER, Pennsylvania State Agent.

SOUTH LANCASTER ACADEMY, SOUTH LANCASTER, MASS. I find “Best Stories” very attractive to the children, as the illustrations are so beautiful, and the story so simply and impressively told. We are using it as a reader for beginners, with much enthusiasm and inspiration on their part. SUSIE SISLEY.

This is just the book for children and young people to sell. It is a beautiful book, pleasing to the eye, and contains many fine illustrations. The fifty pages of “Easy Lessons” are a drawing feature of the work. It is a volume of which the children never tire.

West Point Hazing and the YMCA President

THE principal one of the “hazers” — really the torturers — at West Point, the one who appointed the fighters, etc., is also president of the West Point Young Men's Christian Association!

Church and State in the Philippines

The Chicago Times-Herald remarks that in the Philippines, “there seems to be a disagreeable prospect of such a row over the subject of Church and State as we have never had in this country.”

Romance and Cigarettes

A PROFESSOR in Northwestern University recently stated to his class that “a romance will quicken a mind and revive interest when it lags from overstudy;” and immediately and very properly added that the cigarette and other such stimulants will produce the same result. Yes, romance and cigarettes, novels and other stimulants, all belong together; they are all of a kind, and all produce the same results.

The Pope’s Moral Authority

LATELY, in advocating the restoration of the temporal power of the pope, Archbishop Ireland said: “The pontiff’s words must bear no possible suspicion that they are imposed by men who have no authority in things moral and spiritual.” But the pope himself has no authority in things moral and spiritual, except from those who give him authority by acknowledging him pope. And with them he can have just as much authority one time as another.

Russia’s Control of Shang-king

RUSSIA has published the arrangement by which she has taken permanent control of the Chinese province of Shang-king, of which Mukden is the capital, and Port Arthur the seaport. The case of Russia now stands thus: “Russia has her hand at the throat of North China, and so far as China is concerned, can at any moment that suits her convenience extend her hold westward and southward. The only possible check upon her advance is the opposition of the European Powers.”

Jacksonville’s Divine Healer Ordinance

LAST month the city of Jacksonville, Fla., passed “an ordinance fixing the license tax for persons doing business as curers, or healers, of the sick or lame or crippled by other than generally recognized and proved means, recognized and licensed by law.” The ordinance requires all such persons, not regularly registered in accordance with the city ordinances, to pay a license of twenty-five hundred dollars; and the penalty for disregarding the ordinance is five hundred dollars, or imprisonment not exceeding ninety days. The city passed this ordinance because a certain so-called “divine healer” was practicing there.

Marshalling of the Nations

ORDERS are still being received, by the fifty or the hundred at a time, for “Marshalling of the Nations.” Although there is not so much strife and confusion in China as there were six months ago, the question involved is the same forever; and the “Marshalling of the Nations” points it out. Give all the people an opportunity to read it; it costs but ten cents. Address Pacific Press, Oakland, Cal., or Review and Herald Pub. Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Sending Money in Postage Stamps

By Editor

WE know that many of our readers can not easily send their money in money orders, and therefore are obliged to send it in postage stamps. To this we do not object; BUT we do ask that in sending stamps you will be sure to so inclose them that they will not stick together nor to the paper that incloses them. And you can easily make sure of this by putting each layer of the stamps between folds of oiled paper. If you haven’t any oiled paper, you can make it by putting some oil on paper.

DIVINE HEALING,

both true and false, is steadily becoming more and more common. Multitudes will be destroyed through the deceptions of the false divine healing. Many will be thus destroyed because they fail to distinguish the true from the false. But the Word says: “Try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” The articles that are to begin in

THE REVIEW, NEXT WEEK

on this subject are of the greatest value just now. These articles will cover two months. Twenty-five cents will bring them to you. You can not afford to miss them. Be sure also to let your neighbors and friends know of this, so that they can have the benefit if they will.

European Powers Ensnare the United States

WHEN the Powers signed the “collective note” of their concert in China, the United States minister signed “with an explanatory statement designed to show that he signed something that he ought not to sign, but which he felt obliged to sign because there was nothing in sight more satisfactory to sign.” And that is only the beginning of the weaving of the meshes around the United States by the European Powers, which will end only in humbling her to the very dust.

The Church of the United States

The Independent says that the question before the civilized world to-day is whether the same conditions of Russian rule in the Russianized Chinese provinces shall control China herself; and then answers its own question thus: “The probability is that they will do so unless one of two things happens—the partition, or the Christianization, of China.” And then it further says: “The United States, England, and Germany have, through their governments, put themselves on record, and sincerely, against the former. Will they as clearly, through their churches, indorse and urge the latter?” “Through their churches”! The world knows of the Church of England, and even of the Church of Germany, but who in the world knows of the Church of the United States? Ah! but that is shaping, and is expected soon to be known. This church-federation idea is to accomplish that.

January Number of Good Health

THE January number of Good Health is excellently good, as usual. Be sure to get it.

Delegates to General Conference

By L. A. HOOPES

Each organized Conference of Seventh-day Adventists throughout the world is entitled to one delegate, and one additional delegate for every five hundred members, to the General Conference, which convenes at Battle Creek, Mich., April 2-23, 1901. Conference presidents or secretaries should see that an official list of all accredited delegates is sent to the secretary at once, so that all necessary arrangements may be made in due time. Before the time and place of the Conference were changed, the secretary was supplied with a list from some of the Conferences; but it will be necessary to have this revised. Please do not delay in sending in the list.

ANOTHER PIONEER GONE

By I. D. Van Horn

SARAH M. FURGUSON (Swan) was born in Brantford, Mass., June 14, 1829; died in Battle Creek, Mich., Jan. 22, 1901, aged 71 years, 7 months, 8 days. In 1848 she was married to Charles D. Swan. He was killed by the cars in 1872. Two children remain to mourn their loss. Sister Swan was converted at the age of eighteen, under the preaching of the Advent message, and in 1851 accepted the Third Angel’s Message, and began keeping the Sabbath of the Lord. She became a member of the Battle Creek church in 1870. Even under long-continued infirmity, and at times with severe suffering and pain, she was patient and cheerful, being buoyed up with the “blessed hope.” Titus 2:13. She is at rest, waiting for the crown of life and an entrance into the eternal inheritance of the saints. A verse written a few weeks before her death expresses her support and trust.

“I know not the way I am going, But well do I know my Guide; With childlike trust, I give my hand To the mighty Friend at my side.”

I. D. VAN HORN.
