What shall Be Done?

By L. Bartholomew

DEAR BRETHREN: Did you notice that piece from Dr. H. S. Lay, in No. 5 of present Vol. of the Review, headed, What shall be done? Suffer me to ask you to read it again. And may God forbid that means shall be wanted to fully carry out the Health-Reform movement. It is too good a cause to lack for means. I was at the Institute four days, and can truly say that it never has been extolled too highly. It was cheering to see the sick recovering so rapidly, and wearing such happy, buoyant faces. I was loth to leave the place. I think there are one thousand persons who can spare twenty-five dollars each, and take one share, just as well as not. I cannot; but still I will be one of one thousand to raise the $25,000.

Yours for the Health Reform. L. BARTHOLOMEW.
