From Sr. Brooks.

BRO. SMITH: I sit down to write a few lines for our paper, hoping it may do some good. It is the first time I have attempted to write for the REVIEW. I love to read the testimonies in the paper from time to time, they are so encouraging. It makes me feel as though I ought to say something for the Lord, to encourage others. I feel that it is a blessed privilege to speak for Christ. I feel thankful that he has opened my blinded eyes to read and understand his holy word, and to keep the Sabbath he has commanded us to keep. I feel sorry to see others break the Sabbath, while they call themselves Christians. It seems to be a matter of no importance to them. I feel that the time we have to stay here, is short. Let us be up and doing. Pray for me, that I may live at the foot of the cross; that I may be ready to meet Jesus when he comes. Yours in hope of the kingdom, MARY M. BROOKS. Pierce Co., Wisconsin.
