ELDER W. W. PRESCOTT, who recently connected with the work in Great Britain, says in Field Tidings: "It is with much satisfaction that I join the workers in Britain in their efforts to extend the knowledge of the blessed truth of the Gospel, and I come with the confidence that as the Lord has guided me to this field, so he will prosper his work in my hands to hisown glory. 'For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.'"

These little ones need clothing badly, some of them coming in rags and shoeless."
THE report of Dr. Riley, in the Review of the 11th inst., says: "At the present writing every helper in the Colorado Sanitarium, from call-boy to physician, is kept busy caring for the household of guests and patients. . . . There is no spot on earth where all forms of diseases of the lungs and the digestive system can be so well treated as at the Colorado Sanitarium, at Boulder, Colo."
