Call no Man Master.
“One is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.” Matt. 23 : 8.
It appears from the following statement that the followers of Martin Luther have paid no attention to his injunction in regard to a name. Luther says:—
“I beseech you above all things, not to use my name: not to call yourselves Lutherans, but Christians. What is Luther? The doctrine is not mine. . . . The papists have justly a party name; because, unsatisfied with Christ’s name and doctrine, they will be papist too. Let them be called after the pope, their master. I am and will be no man’s master. In common with my brethren, I hold the only universal doctrine of Christ, who alone is my master.”—Life of Luther by M. Gelzer, p. 168.
Scriptural Mortality of Man and the Resurrection
The Wilmington (Del.) Daily Commercial of Feb. 6, 1875, contains an essay read before the Society for Free Religious Discussion, by S. Carlisle, in which he forcibly argues the scriptural doctrine of the mortality of man, and the resurrection as the only hope of future life.

A Sabbath-day's Journey.
By Uriah Smith
O. HOFFER:
The proof that a Sabbath-day's journey was considered about two miles, is found in John 11:18; Luke 24:50; Acts 1:12. Christ led his disciples out as far as Bethany and was taken up from them. Bethany was from Jerusalem fifteen furlongs (16 would be 2 miles); and Olivet, on which Bethany was, was from Jerusalem a Sabbath-day's journey. Commentators say a Sabbath-day's journey was 7 furlongs. But none of them, so far as we find, give any authority. It seems to us that the evangelists indicate in the above texts that it was about 2 miles. The restriction of travel to a certain distance on the Sabbath rested on tradition, not on the Scripture.

Notice on Relief Shipments for Kansas Brethren
By J. N. Ayers
Notice.
To those wishing to send grain, and provision, or clothing, for the aid of the destitute brethren in Kansas I would say, Direct the same to me (in care of Kincaid & Co., Pleasanton) so there will be no trouble keeping it out of the hands of other aid committees. I have arrangements with them (Kincaid & Co.,) to take care of all that comes as soon as it arrives. Mark all goods shipped, “Kansas Relief.”
J. N. AYERS, Treas. M. C. K. Conf.
Smoky Religion.
Bro. August Rasmussen, who attended the late Biblical Institute in this place, gives us a little of his experience since he returned home. He says:—
When I returned home, I attended the yearly meeting of the Lutheran church in Gowen, Mich. Their priest smoked his tobacco pipe all the time; and so did nearly all the assembly. The house was so dark with smoke that one could hardly see another. The floor was almost covered with tobacco spit from the stand to the door. At one time there were a dozen or more speaking at once. After much controversy, sometimes in harsh language, and smoking and spitting, the priest gave his flock a faithful warning against the S. D. Adventists, claiming that their doctrines were fearful.
I thank my S. D. A. brethren that I know a better way, and for all they have done for our Danish mission.
