GOOD HEALTH.
By Editor
J. H. KELLOGG, M. D., EDITOR.
This popular health journal enters upon its fifteenth volume with the most flattering prospects for a continuation of the prosperity that has attended its publication in the past. It has for several years enjoyed the
LARGEST CIRCULATION OF ANY HEALTH JOURNAL IN AMERICA,
and its publishers are determined, not only to maintain the high position already attained, but to greatly increase its circulation the coming year, and thus enlarge its field of usefulness.
During the year each number will contain a large amount of valuable and interesting matter on the subjects of Health, Temperance, Popular Science, General Literature, and other topics of interest. The practical information in its pages on Sanitary Science, Public and Domestic Hygiene and topics of kindred nature, gives it a scope and field of usefulness peculiar to itself, and unoccupied by any other journal.
AN ILLUSTRATED ARTICLE
on practical hygiene, or some other topic of general interest, will appear in each number, as a new and permanent feature of the journal in the future. In addition to this the Department of Questions and Answers, which has contributed so much to the success of the journal in the past, will be revived in a practically useful form, and made more valuable than ever before.
SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, $1.00 A YEAR.
PREMIUM FOR NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS.—The “Household Manual,” a work of great value as a book on ready reference, packed full of practical information, and sold at retail for 75 cents, is offered to new subscribers with GOOD HEALTH for a year, for $1.25. We regard this as the best premium ever made, as the book alone is well worth the subscription price of the journal, and 25 cents extra secures both.
Specimen copies of the journal will be sent free to any address on application.

THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES.
By Editor
A RELIGIOUS PROPHETIC JOURNAL.
This is the pioneer sheet of eight pages (the size of the REVIEW page), circulated everywhere by our Tract and Missionary workers, at the low price of one dollar a year to the T. and M. societies only.
The conductors of the SIGNS have laid their plans to make this pioneer sheet for 1880 a power in the land. Live writers are engaged for the work. Elder Smith will give a series of articles under the significant heading, Synopsis of Present Truth. Elder White will occupy several pages of each number with sermons on Redemption through Christ, and other subjects of like importance. And besides her regular articles on Old Testament history, Mrs. White will furnish other matter in her usual forcible style.
There will be a special edition of the SIGNS of twelve pages, for old subscribers, who are generally members of our churches on the Pacific coast. This will contain the eight pages of the pioneer sheet, with four pages of church matters, reports and appointments inserted, making twelve pages, which will contain nearly three hundred square inches more than the old size of eight pages. Price, invariably, $2 00 a year.

A CASE OF INTEREST.
By Paul E. Gros
Sabbath, June 5, our meeting at St. Anne, Ill., was large and unusually affecting. Brethren were present from Aroma and Kankakee, and Sister Bourdeau and daughter were with us for the last time before leaving for Canada. But what added most to the interest was the presence of a railroad agent stationed here, who for the first time observed the Lord’s own day. The circumstances of this case are so peculiar that I cannot forbear writing them. May he continue steadfast in the way of life.
This brother had for some years entertained the impression that the observance of no day but the seventh is taught in the Bible, but he thought it impossible for him to keep it and retain his position. By reading the Restitution and some of our books, his mind was enlightened on the nature of man and to some extent on the coming of the Lord also. Lately the Holy Spirit strove with him, leading him to investigate more and more earnestly. I gave him tracts and lent him an Advent text-book. Soon, in answer to his prayer, the truth was revealed to him, and after receiving light on the relation of the law to redemption and baptism, he decided to obey at all cost, esteeming it an honor to suffer for the Master. In accordance with his new convictions, he handed in his resignation, hardly daring to hope that the company would refuse to accept it. But here His wisdom, love, and power were made to appear “who doeth all things well.” The answer came, apprising him of the decision of the company to employ him, with renewed trust, as long as he wished, paying him the same wages and having the work of their office done at their own expense on the Sabbath. Truly, beloved brethren, he who puts his trust in God shall not be confounded. Pray for a special blessing to result from this providential case. PAUL E. GROS.

J. W
By James White
We wish to say to our numerous friends, who have an abundance of fruits, such as cherries, raspberries, peaches, and pears, that a few cans from each would be highly prized by Mrs. W. and the writer, who find no time from important duties in the work of God to secure a supply of canned fruit. Bring your fruit-offerings to the general camp-meeting.

Greek Shopkeepers Close Shops on Sunday
The Greeks also are exercised over Sunday-keeping, according to the following item, which we clip from The Christian at Work:—
Most of the shops in Athens have been kept open on Sunday. Recently a priest of the Greek Church has greatly exercised himself to put this practice down. His sermons against it were attentively listened to by the shopkeepers, who have now agreed to keep their establishments closed on the day of rest. That Greek priest would do well to come to New York and help forward Dr. Crosby’s work of closing up the liquor shops. He could be sure of steady employment.
Ohio Tithing Fund.
By Dudley Marvin Canright
We now have four tents running, and may pitch the fifth one in a few days, yet our tithing fund is exhausted. We have no money even to buy lumber to seat our tents. Our preachers have received just enough to barely keep them in the field. I am sure that if many of our brethren and sisters could realize our necessities in this direction they would come up more promptly with their tithes. But we only state the facts and leave the matter between their consciences and the Lord as to whether they are doing their duty or not. As quarterly meeting is near at hand, we call your attention to the matter.
D. M. Canright.
OHIO QUARTERLY MEETINGS.
By Dudley Marvin Canright
July 3 and 4 is the time for our church quarterly meetings, not only for the church itself, but for the T. and M. society, the tithing, and the Sabbath-school. Certainly no one should neglect these important meetings. No church can prosper that neglects them. Special effort should be made by all individuals to be on hand and fill their places in each of these branches.
July 10 and 11 will be the district quarterly meetings. These should be well attended. Especially should the librarians be prompt to send their reports the Monday previous to the District Secretary. Let none fail to do this. We shall hold no State meeting this quarter, but the district secretaries should send their reports and money to the State Secretary just the same. D. M. Canright.
MAINE CAMP-MEETING FUND.
By J. B. Goodrich
At a business meeting the 13th, at 8 A. M., the brethren unanimously voted to raise a camp-meeting fund in the same manner that it was raised last year. We wish to have it all paid into the treasury before the camp-meeting. Our scattered brethren and sisters are invited to forward their donations to Geo. W. Barker, South Norridgewock, Somerset Co., Maine.
J. B. GOODRICH,
Politicians Urged to Avoid Personal Abuse
—The Interior gives the politicians of this country the following good advice. We wish for the honor of the nation, that it might be heeded.
“There will be a sufficiently wide field of difference on economical policy, political doctrine, and other great and grave questions, to make the campaign a means of popular education—to lay before the people the facts and logic of elevated politics and statesmanship, and to make them intelligent voters. The torrents of personal abuse, which are so often the chief characteristics of political campaigns, are positively and fearfully damaging to public morals, and discreditable to us as a nation.”
Sensational Pulpit Advertising in Daily Newspapers
—Some of our religious exchanges are disgusted with the sensational advertising of pulpit themes of which the daily papers are the medium. The Examiner and Chronicle sternly rebukes the class of preachers who “substitute eccentricity for earnestness,”—truly saying that “a glance down the special Sunday notices of our daily newspapers is enough to sicken the heart of the average Christian. On a recent Saturday morning a New York minister advertised his sermon subjects as ‘Divine Photographs,’ and ‘Heaven’s Special Police.’” Mr. Moody, it appears, has been preaching on “Mr. Lot,” using vulgar and common language to make himself understood. Says the Christian Worker: “We recently instanced the sensationalist preacher and his theme, ‘The Heavenly Suitor,’ founded on the text, ‘Lydia, whose heart the Lord opened.’ Now comes the announcement of a sermon on the subject of ‘The Model Walker,’ not a go-as-you-please pedestrian, but Enoch, who ‘walked with God.’ Very clearly, the ‘reverend’ Harlequins and Pantaloons have not yet perished from off the earth.—Ex.
