Tasmanian Forest Scenery

The picture on our first page this week gives a view of God's handiwork as seen in the woods of Tasmania. Such a luxuriance and beauty of natural foliage is rarely found in any other place outside of tropical countries. When looking upon such a scene, the reverent soul will recognize the song of praise, as though in response to the call of the prophet:—
“Sing, O ye heavens! for Jehovah hath done it; Shout, ye lower parts of the earth! Burst into song, O ye mountains! Thou forest, and every tree therein! For Jehovah hath redeemed Jacob, And glorified himself in Israel.”

A Testimony for the Truth

At a meeting of the Louisville (Kentucky) Clinical Society, held May 13, 1902, the question of diet was under discussion, when Dr. W. H. Wathen, president of the Kentucky School of Medicine of Louisville, made the following remarks as reported in the American Practitioner and News:—
Theory is all right as far as it goes, but practical observation is of far more value. I assume that I have had opportunity of observing this question more than all of you combined, having recently spent three weeks among a class of people who use no meat at any time, and it has positively demonstrated to me that meat is unnecessary—that the healthiest people in the world never eat meat; that those who have the most beautiful complexions, who are the most enduring in their work, who are the most amiable in their disposition, who are the least addicted to the use of whisky, wines, opiates, sexual excesses, etc., are those people who do not eat meat. It has been demonstrated that persons who have been addicted to the excesses I have mentioned, while upon a meat diet, have entirely abandoned them while living upon an exclusively vegetable diet, but returned to the excesses when a mixed diet was again resumed.
No well-trained Seventh-day Adventist eats meat, and you will not find healthier people in the world than these people, nor people more free from excesses of all kinds. I had occasion to observe, at Battle Creek, Mich., for three weeks, the nurses, the doctors, the medical students, and I have never seen brighter medical students in my life, nor have I ever seen such healthy-looking people as they are, and not one particle of meat do they eat. I lived among them for three weeks without any meat. I did not want or feel the need of meat, and I gained while there one and one-half pounds per day. Vegetarians are the most enduring people in the world; the laborers on the coast of Spain unloading vessels work longer hours and carry heavier weights than meat eaters, and they never eat any meat.
The question of vegetarianism is a large one. You must prepare these things properly. Take, for instance, some of the cereals. We cook oatmeal between thirty and sixty minutes, and think it is ready to be served, whereas at Battle Creek they cook it at 360° F from three to six hours; and when prepared in this way, it is easily digested and nourishing. Many of the Battle Creek products are already predigested so that they are readily assimilated.
Protose, made of the gluten of wheat and peanuts, is a substitute for meat. It is easily digested, easy of assimilation, and nutritious; and when properly prepared, you can eat enormous quantities without ill effects.
One of the most admirable dinners I ever ate was at Dr. Kellogg’s, where no meat was served, the cooking being done with vegetable and nut oils instead of lards and greases.
Such testimony as this given before a meeting of physicians by one who stands at the head of a leading medical institution is worthy of note. It shows that right principles concerning diet and health are finding a recognition among a class of thinkers who formerly gave little attention to them. Every one of us who have had the privilege of knowing the principles of hygienic reform for years ought, by walking in the light, to become a living testimony to the truthfulness of Dr. Wathen’s remarks. So may it be.

Dr. J. E. Caldwell Joins Graysville Sanitarium

DR. J. E. CALDWELL, who has spent eight years as a worker in the islands of the Pacific and Australasia, has accepted an invitation to connect with the sanitarium now in process of erection at Graysville, Tenn. Brother Caldwell will go to his new field of labor at once.

Brother Wakeham’s Journey to Egypt

A LETTER from Brother W. H. Wakeham announces the safe arrival of himself and family in London after a very pleasant voyage. After a stay of one week in London they expected to leave for Hamburg, Germany, and then to go on to Egypt about the middle of this month.

Death of Elder G. W. Colcord

MANY of our readers will learn with sincere regret of the death of Elder G. W. Colcord, which occurred on Sabbath, October 4, after an illness of less than a week. Brother Colcord has been a stanch believer and faithful worker in this message for many years, and he will be greatly missed by those associated with him in the work. A more complete notice of his sickness and death will appear later.

Tract Circulation in Trinidad

BRETHREN W. G. KNEELAND and Geo. F. Enoch are meeting with encouraging success in the circulation of the tracts recently published by them in their work on the island of Trinidad. We have received sample copies of a tract just issued by them dealing with the alcohol and tobacco evil. The first edition of this tract is ten thousand, and a second edition is likely to be needed. Brother Enoch writes that “scarcely any of the Volcano and Coronation tracts are left on our shelves.”

An Old Fable for English-Speaking Adventists

In Iowa, where our brethren are taking hold in earnest of the work of circulating our special issues of the Scandinavian papers, B. E. Fullmer writes in the Workers’ Bulletin an appeal that we all should read and act upon. We quote:—
The story is told of two unfortunate travelers, both of whom were infirm and helpless. One was blind, and so could not see the road, while the other was lame, and could not walk. In their extremity, the lame man mounted the shoulders of him who was blind, and, directing his steps, both arrived safely at their destination.
Now for the lesson: In the past our Scandinavian brethren have been very faithful in aiding in the English work. They are now putting forth a definite effort to reach their own people by means of the special number of their papers to be issued early in October. Now is the time for us to help them in return for their loyalty to us. We have been hampered in the past because we could not speak their language, and so it was useless for us to go to these people. Now these papers can speak, but unfortunately they cannot walk. Then, brethren, can we not do as did the two men in the fable? If we will do the walking, the papers will do the talking; and by the combined effort many homes may be reached that otherwise would never hear of present truth. I appeal to our English-speaking members throughout the State to aid in putting these papers into the homes of their Scandinavian friends and neighbors. With a little effort a large number may be used in a way, that will bring a blessing to both the giver and the receiver.
