EXTRACTS FROM CORRESPONDENCE.

My husband has not been in the truth until this winter. He has now kept the Sabbath about three months. He will receive baptism soon. I praise the Lord for His goodness and mercy toward us all.
I do love the REVIEW, and take much comfort in reading it, especially the Woman’s page. I would like to ask the prayers of the sisters for my husband, who is still an unbeliever.
In answer to your request, I will send my REVIEW to any one who you think will be benefited by receiving it. The REVIEW is dear to us. It is the only teacher we have. I have been watching the requests for prayer for others, and have been praying for them, too. I wish the sisters would pray for my father, who is an old soldier, kind and good to his family, and not prejudiced against the truth, but does not realize the necessity of obedience.
Within the last year I have moved from my old home to this new country, as it seemed best to do so. There are none of our faith near me, and I am indeed thankful that I can have the Bible and our good papers and books, so that I can still keep in touch with our people. The country is thinly settled, and we are so far from the post-office that we do not get mail more than once a week, sometimes not as often as that. I live entirely alone, but have a married son living near. There is no school near, so I am teaching his two stepchildren, aged fifteen and seventeen years respectively. We are using “Christ’s Object Lessons” as our reading book, and enjoy it very much.
