To the Friends of the Health Reform.

We introduce to your notice our brother, M. G. Kellogg, M. D., recently from the Hygieo Therapeutic College, New York City, R. T. Trall, M. D., President. Bro. Kellogg takes the field as a lecturer on the science of human life. He will examine the sick, and give prescriptions. He is ready to receive calls from those who wish his labors.
We recommend him as a man who fears God, and one devoted to the cause of present truth and reform. We regard him as an instructive and interesting lecturer, and one qualified to advise the sick. All our churches should secure his labors.
It will be expected that in each place where he labors, the friends of health reform will contribute to his support, and the payment of his traveling expenses. Examination and prescription, $2.00. When called to a distance, his traveling expenses should be paid, also a reasonable compensation for his time and labor in treating the sick.
Let it be distinctly understood that Bro. Kellogg goes out in this work under the direction of the General Conference Committee. He engages in this work to do good, not for the pay; but he is a poor man, and if he devotes himself to doing good to others, he deserves a support. The Committee will see that this support be given. If it is not received in the form of donations and examination fees, &c., from those who have his services, it will be paid out of the Gen. Conf. funds. And let none fear that they will pay him too much. He will report to the Committee, and should there be more received than to pay him as our ministers are paid, it will be put into the Gen. Conf. fund.

We also commend to our people Dr. J. H. Ginley, of St. Charles, Saginaw Co., Mich. We think him competent to treat disease upon hygienic principles, and also to give instruction in the true methods of restoring and preserving health. See his advertisement in this paper.
