Easy Proof.

By Editor

A MAN in Missouri sends us five pages of manuscript in which he "proves," to his own satisfaction, no doubt, that the Sunday is the true seventh day of the fourth commandment. And how does he arrive at this conclusion? Simply by calling Friday the fifth day of the week. This might do if a man had power to change the nature of a thing by calling it by another name. Friday is the sixth day of the week, and Sunday is the first, no matter what people call them. Saturday is also the seventh day of the week, and "the seventh day is the Sabbath." Calling it by a name that does not belong to it, will not change the fact.
