SPECIAL NOTICES

The Work at Nashville.

Some weeks ago a call was made for fifty $100 contributions to assist us in purchasing necessary machinery and equipment, to provide in part a working capital, and for the purchasing of a stock of paper and other material to put into books. To meet the demands of this peculiar field, it is necessary to publish large editions of small books, and to do this we must have sufficient material and adequate facilities.
We are grateful indeed for the help that has come to us in response to this appeal, and that all may know how much is yet needed to make up the sum required, we append the names of those who have thus far responded:—
George B. Thompson................$100 00 Mrs. Carrie Thompson...............150 00 Elder H. A. St. John...............100 00 Mrs. M. A. Loper...................100 00 A friend...........................100 00 Jonathan Richart...................250 00 Ida E. Richart.....................250 00 Wm. Hurlock........................500 00 S. W. Hastings and wife............100 00 Chas. Briggs.......................100 00 $1,750 00
In addition to this amount some smaller sums have been received, which are none the less appreciated.
Feeling confident that the full sum of $5,000 would come in, we have gone forward in our preparation for the work to be done. A stock of paper and working material has been purchased, and will be put into books as fast as possible. Machinery has also been added, thus giving us the facilities actually necessary at the present time.
We have enjoyed much of God's blessing since the work on our building was begun. At the outset we had less than one hundred dollars, but we had confidence that if we were obedient to God's way,—to “plan by faith, work by faith, and not go into debt,”—He would open the way before us. To His praise, we can now report that the building is completed, free from debt. We feel to say, “This is the Lord's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.”
Now, brethren, we are in urgent need of the remainder of the five thousand dollars called for. The payments on the machinery and paper stock recently purchased, we have arranged to meet as the money comes in. We are confident that God will impress those of you who have means, to respond to this call. We also ought to have a fund to aid in furnishing a stock of books, tracts, and pamphlets, so that the office can be brought to the highest point of efficiency, and thus meet the purpose for which it was established.
If you feel prompted to aid at this time, please address the undersigned.

MISSISSIPPI

By E. P. Auger

CORINTH.—To my appeal in the REVIEW a few weeks ago, a few of our brethren have responded, sending us, in all, four barrels of clothing and some literature. These we have distributed. We sincerely thank our brethren and sisters for enabling us to do much good, and also thank them in behalf of those helped, for they thanked us, many with tears of gratitude.
I have received many inquiries as to what and how much is needed. For the information of those who have written, and others who may be interested, I will give a brief description of the conditions existing in Alcorn County, Miss. Last spring the country north of Corinth, along the Tennessee River, was flooded, and the crops there and in the creek bottom lands were in most places destroyed. This last fall, people left the country in large numbers, hunting for work. Corinth being the nearest and a manufacturing town, many moved here with their families, hoping to find work. As a result, many families are without employment, and in need of everything. The Ladies’ Aid societies are doing but little to relieve the suffering. Since I made this appeal in the REVIEW, one of the clothing factories has closed indefinitely, throwing about two hundred persons out of employment. This adds considerably to the number of the needy. We are doing all in our power to use these opportunities to introduce the truth into the homes of the people. We tell them that these clothes are given to them by a people who are warning the world of the Lord’s soon coming, with the prayer that each receiver may prepare to meet the Lord with joy when He comes. Our work has caused many favorable comments. The last six months I have distributed a barrel of our literature, supplying reading racks at railroad depots, hotels, etc.
As to how much we ought to do for the suffering, we leave it to the Lord to impress those of our people who are willing to send us, prepaid, clothing, or food, or means to buy food, pay expenses of drayage, etc. I would suggest that those intending to send anything in the line of food, write to me about it before sending.
Several Northern families came from Indiana, and are in actual destitution, but are sincere Christians and hard workers. They are not Seventh-day Adventists.
We do not receive pay from any one for doing this Christian Help work, nor do we use anything sent us unless indicated by sender that it is for our personal use.        E. P. AUGER.

BEWARE!

An exchange throws out the following caution: “If anybody offers you a $10 or $20 bill on the American National Bank of Helena, Mont., just pass it up as no good. Robbers secured $45,000 of the first consignment, and are forging the names of the bank officials.”

A Warning.

By E. H. Rees

To all our brethren everywhere we wish to say, Beware of a man who calls himself a S. D. A. missionary; name, L. Schmidt; a German of medium height, smooth face, slightly cross-eyed. He is not worthy of your confidence, neither to be received into your homes, as he is guilty of habitual crimes, self-confessed. In your churches he will do the work foretold by the apostle in 2 Tim. 3:6. When last seen, was in Harrisburg, Pa. (State papers please copy.) E. H. Rees.

A “Sunday” Number of the Sentinel of Christian Liberty.

By Editor

Such might the January Sentinel of Christian Liberty be called, for nearly the whole of it is devoted to a consideration of the vital phases of the question of Sunday enforcement. Owing to the present agitation in New York City, a great deal is being said just now with regard to Sunday legislation, and the minds of the people everywhere throughout the country are turning to the subject. The Sunday movement is a growing movement, a deep movement, and now is the opportune time to place the Sentinel in the hands of the people. The January Sentinel will be larger than usual, seventy-two pages being filled with this and other matter of serious import. There will also be two very suggestive illustrations.
People are led into supporting this movement because they have not a knowledge of its nature. Who will help to give them the right kind of education, by placing proper reading-matter in their hands? How many copies of the January Sentinel can you use? It is neat, attractive, and should have a circulation of 100,000 copies. Special price on this number, $5 a hundred. Address the Sentinel of Christian Liberty, 11 W. Twentieth St., New York City.

Obituaries

“I am the resurrection and the life.”—Jesus.
EBY.— Sister Hannah A. Eby died at 1150 Grand River Ave., Detroit, Mich., Jan. 1, 1902, aged 63 years, 2 months, 26 days. She leaves a husband and two daughters, who wait for the hope of the first resurrection. Sister Eby was a faithful member of the Detroit church. Her oldest daughter, who is now in Australia, is Mrs. Dr. Kress, who is well known to many of the readers of the Review. Words of consolation were spoken by the writer, based upon Luke 21:18. E. K. Slade.
CORNELL.— Died in Colby, Wash., Dec. 22, 1901, of heart failure, Hiram Cornell, aged 77 years. The deceased was born in New York. For several years he was engaged in teaching, and for seven years was at the head of a large educational institution. In 1880 he lost his eyesight, so that for twenty years he has been blind. He accepted the truth twelve years ago, and died in the blessed hope. Five sons and two daughters, together with the sorrowing wife, survive him. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer, from John 11:33–35. H. C. J. Wollekar.

PROPHETIC CHARTS

IN SERIES.

THE REVIEW AND HERALD Publishing Co. recently found and purchased about fifty sets of the Prophetic Charts in Series. Our stock of these charts has been depleted for some time, and we are glad that we can now offer these few sets as long as they last at the original price, $4.00, postpaid.
These charts are seven in number, illustrating respectively the symbols of Daniel 2, 7, 8, Revelation 12, 13, etc.; the three angels of Revelation 14, and the Sanctuary, including also a Commandment Chart. They are finely lithographed on muslin without rollers, 32 x 44 inches.
Each symbol in this series is large enough to be distinctly seen in the largest halls or churches. As long as they last they will be sent postpaid for—
$4.00 A SET.
Order of the State Tract Societies.

NOW IS THE TIME.

This is the time of the year when all kinds of literature should be placed in the homes of the people, and it is especially the most favorable time of the year for systematic tract work.
That all may have a list of our tracts, with their regular retail prices, for convenience in ordering we give below the number of the tract, its name, the number of tracts in a package, and the prices. The prices are based upon the rate of sixteen pages for one cent. The number of pages in each tract, therefore, can be ascertained from the price.
In ordering it is best not to break the packages, especially in the smaller tracts. Liberal discounts are made to local Tract Societies when ordering in large quantities and in full packages.

The Need for True Optimists

NEVER in its history has the world been in greater need of true optimists—of those who, though they do not ignore the seamy side of life, still look upon the bright side of things. The last words of Jesus, in His farewell talk to His disciples, were, “Be of GOOD CHEER.”

Brother Jean Vuilleumier

Brother Jean Vuilleumier, until recently editor of Les Signes des Temps, our French paper published in Paris, France, is spending a few days at the Battle Creek Sanitarium. Owing to poor health, he has been obliged to give up his work for a time, and will soon leave for Colorado.

Christian Science

By Editor

We give this week the first of the series of articles from the pen of Elder Geo. I. Butler, on “Christian Science.” Have you not some friend who would be benefited by the exposition of the true character of this fast-spreading delusion, that will be given in these articles? Forty cents will send the REVIEW to your friend’s address for three months.

Criticism and Constructive Speech

IT is much easier to criticise than to create, to tear down than to build up, to talk about others than to talk to them. How many honest reputations, built up by years of patient effort, have been ruthlessly torn down by a few minutes’ talk!

Atlantic Union Gleaner

The Atlantic Union Conference is now publishing a Conference paper, the Atlantic Union Gleaner, printed at South Lancaster, Mass., weekly; 12 pp., 50 cents a year. There are now three Union Conference papers, one being in the West and one in the South.

Making Others Happy

“If you send one person, only one, happily through each day,” quotes Sydney Smith, “in forty years, you have made 14,600 beings happy, at least for a time.” It was this same Smith who, though quite sick at one time, wrote the following to a friend: “I have gout, asthma, and seven other maladies, but am otherwise very well.”

The Reestablishment of the Papacy

EVER since the downfall of the papacy, through the great Reformation, it has been Satan’s studied endeavor to re-establish the papacy, not only in the world, but also in the Church itself. Every time the devil has thus succeeded in creating a papacy in one denomination, God has raised up another denomination—a new people. This is how Seventh-day Adventists came to have an existence.

British Printing of Present Truth

In a letter to the Mission Board, Brother Sisley, now of the London Publishing House, says: “You will be pleased to know that we have just finished printing 54,600 copies of the holiday number of Present Truth, and we have orders for a few more, which we cannot fill. We are also printing 25,000 copies of the next number of Good Health.” Our British brethren print a 16-page health journal with this well-known title.

True Christians Are Optimists

EVERY true Christian is a true optimist. Jesus was the optimist. The criticising Pharisees were the fault-finders, the pessimists of His day. Jesus did not possess a blind optimism that refused to see the evils about Him. He saw the evils, but did all in His power to remedy them. And it is a source of encouragement to every Christian to know that even the Son of man was not able to right every wrong that He saw. He simply did His best.

Carrying Sample Copies of the Review

By Editor

IN response to the call being made in the REVIEW, we have received from the brethren and sisters many offers to carry sample copies of this paper to those in their locality who are not subscribers. One Chicago brother writes for more samples, and accompanies his request with six new subscriptions. The following, received from our dear brother, Washington Morse, of Peterboro, Ontario, who is now over eighty years old, is a fair sample of the contents of scores of postals that are now coming to the editorial room: “I herewith promise to carry sample copies of the REVIEW to seven Seventh-day Adventist people here in this city who do not take the REVIEW, and try to get them to subscribe for the paper.”

The Physician by the Fireside

By Editor

Our new department, “The Physician by the Fireside,” will be found on page 23. Those having questions intended for this department should send them to Dr. F. M. Rossiter, 294 Van Buren St., Battle Creek, Mich.

To Church Librarians.

DEAR LIBRARIAN: Will you not see to it that every member of your church not now a subscriber, is furnished with sample copies of the REVIEW? Then will you not do your best to get each one to subscribe even though it be for only four months, at 50 cents? Sample copies for this purpose will be sent free. Address A. J. Bourdeau, Editorial Department, REVIEW AND HERALD.

The Tabernacle Pulpit.

By A. J. B.

SABBATH, January 11, the Tabernacle service was devoted to the interests of Christian education. The principal speakers, Elders W. A. Spicer and S. H. Lane, were assisted in the services by Elder M. G. Huffman, Brother Jean Vuilleumier, and Elder I. D. Van Horn, pastor of this church. The difference between the world's education and that which should be given to Seventh-day Adventist children was clearly pointed out. While the public schools are perfectly adapted for the training of citizens for the State, yet the children of Seventh-day Adventists who are looking for the soon coming of Jesus, should receive special instruction and training to prepare them to proclaim this great truth to the world. There are three kinds of schools, said Elder Lane: (1) the home school, (2) the church school, and (3) the school of life. Of the three the first is the most important. Examples were cited of noble Christian mothers who had given to the world its best men—men who carried with them through life the Christian stamp of their early home training. A. J. B.
