OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

SEVEN members were recently added to the church at Muncie, Indiana.

PASTOR C. N. MARTIN reports fifteen conversions to the truth at Chico, Cal.

PASTOR H. F. COURTER is about to organize a church in Inyo County, Cal.

THREE members were recently added to the church at Johnstown, Penn.

THE church at Reading, Penn., was dedicated in connection with the quarterly meeting, January 5, 6.

FIFTY-THREE persons are taking the course of instruction being given by Pastors Santee and Loughborough at the Bible school in Healdsburg, Cal.

PASTOR WM. WOODFORD writes us that nine persons were baptized and a church of twenty-seven members was organized at Juniata, Alabama, on December 9.

BROTHER W. R. BURROW tells of eight who have been converted under his labors in the vicinity of Paris, Tenn. He says that the work is still going on, and that others are interested.

PASTOR J. M. FREEMAN writes from Basutoland that the Spirit of the Lord is at work upon the hearts of the poor heathen there. At a recent Sabbath meeting twenty expressed a desire to become Christians.

SISTER MARTHA L. LINDEMOOD, of Dehesa, Cal., writes us of the wonderful goodness of the Lord in miraculously healing her from disease when all hope seemed past and preserving her to assist her husband in caring for their family.

SISTER S. R. GUTHRIE is having good success in selling the SIGNS OF THE TIMES in Reno, Nevada. She has sold as high as fifty-seven copies in four hours. And when we think of the mighty truths that the SIGNS is seeking to give to the world, should not hundreds of our friends everywhere be stirred to do a like work.

BROTHER H. J. SCHNEPPER reports a good interest and some accessions to the faith in a country neighborhood near Goble, Oregon. It is a German community, and when he began work there, beer-drinking and dancing were the principal pastimes. But some are leaving off their beer, and the dance is not so popular as it was.

Helping Hand Magazine.—A special feature in the February issue of the Helping Hand magazine will be the Prisoners' Department. In addition to the usual select pabulum devoted to the welfare of prisoners, the magazine will contain an interesting report of the session devoted to a discussion on State prisons and charities, held at Oakland on January 5.
