Supporting the Health Institute
By W. F. Hoor
BRO. W. F. HOOR writes from Compton C. E. I find a great change in myself both physically and mentally since I commenced to live healthfully. And I feel to respond to the call that is now being made for means; but my power is limited. Brethren and sisters let us come up to this great work. Time is short. Shall there be an Institution at Battle Creek that will not be able to accommodate all the sick that want to go there? The means I believe will be raised, but let us do it immediately. When there is to be a new rail-road built, people are willing to take shares because it is going to benefit the country. And they will, if the road is profitable, get fair returns from their stock in the road. The shares in the Institute I believe will draw good interest. Besides, every individual that lives out the Hygienic principles will be benefited, whether old or young, in summer and winter, in climates cold or in climates torrid. Were I never to receive any thing from the means I invest I feel fully paid for what the Reform has done for me. Although I am seven hundred miles from Battle Creek, yet what I have learned from the little work entitled, How to Live, and the Health Reformer I esteem very highly, so much so that all I possess or ever will in this world, would not half pay for the blessing of the Health Reform.
