THE WISCONSIN CAMP-MEETING.

This meeting will be held, as appointed, at Madison, June 11–17, on the same ground as last year. We urgently invite all our brethren and sisters to avail themselves of this opportunity to receive a special blessing from God. Come, and bring your children and unconverted friends with you. Be willing to make some sacrifice. Come with the burden of the truth and the salvation of precious souls on your heart. Come to earnestly seek the blessing of God for yourself and others, and we shall see the salvation of God.

Efficient help will be rendered from abroad. Bro. and Sister White and Bro. Littlejohn will be here. We want all tents pitched as soon as the 11th, as far as possible, so that meetings may begin that evening, and go on, uninterrupted. We request those who have family or church tents to send them on in advance, so that we can get them in time. We will pitch them, without charge, and have them ready for you to take possession of when you come. Send them to N. M. Jordon, Madison, Wis.

Committee.

Those going to the camp-meeting at Madison by the way of either division of the C. M. & St. P. R. R., will pay full fare going (not the round trip), and on the ground they will receive a certificate which will entitle them to return at one-fifth fare. G. C. Tenney, for Com.

MINNESOTA CAMP-MEETING.

The Minnesota camp-meeting will be held June 18–24, at Lake Calhoun, near Cedar Lake Station, at the junction of the St. Louis and Minneapolis R. R. with the St. Paul and Pacific R. R. three miles west from Minneapolis.

We have succeeded in getting reduced fare on the following railroads. Those living on the St. Louis and Minneapolis R. R. will pay full fare to the meeting, and have return ticket free. Those on the St. Paul and Pacific will pay full fare to the meeting and ⅕ fare back. The branch road which runs through St. Cloud, Sauk Center, and Alexandria, also the Milwaukee and St. Paul on all its divisions, give us the same rates. Those who live on the Sioux City R. R. must pay three cents per mile the round trip from Laverne Station, Mankato, and Le Sueur, to Merimen Junction, where they will change to the St. Louis and Minneapolis R. R. Those who go to Minneapolis will there take the St. Louis and Minneapolis R. R. for Cedar Lake Station. The campground is about 40 rods from the Junction. H. Grant.
