Note of Explanation.

By James White

APPARENTLY, we have been neglectful of many things, but we have not been able to do all that seemed very necessary for us to do. We have attended to those things which seemed to us most necessary to be done, and the rest we have had to leave undone. We often find important letters, which have been in our possession a long time, hardly read. The simple reason for this is, a want of time to give all such matters proper attention. We are doing all we can—more than we should.

We are always glad to hear from our friends by letter; but suggest that it is best to write to the point, as briefly as consistent. And we think we never had more interest in the Health Institute than at the present time. We bear no responsibilities in that direction, simply for want of time. None need to address us on matters pertaining to that institution.
