OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

By Editor

At Luana, Iowa, eight persons have accepted the faith under the labors of Brother John Manuel and wife.

Our new building, in which we are now comfortably housed at Mountain View, Cal., will be dedicated, with appropriate services, on the 15th and 16th of the present month.

The demand for the tract, "Appeal to Clergy," issued by our brethren in Washington, D. C., has been so great that another edition has been printed, making 390,000 so far issued.

Writing to the Pacific Union Recorder, Brother C. D. M. Williams says: "The special sets of SIGNS still sell just as well as ever. Could I put in my whole time in this way, I am confident I could sell from 500 to 1,000 sets in Utah."

Some time in May, Brother H. C. J. Wollekar and wife, now laboring in Seattle, Wash., will go to Alaska. They expect to locate for a time in Skagway or Juneau, and, in addition to special effort in the coast country, will endeavor to spread the truth in the interior by missionary correspondence. Brother Wollekar is familiar with both the English and Scandinavian languages.

In the Southern Illinois Herald, Brother J. M. Rees, president of the conference, mentions the addition of two members to the church at Oakland, and five candidates for baptism. Brother F. W. Wheeler had been laboring there. Brother Rees further reports: "Almost every place our ministers are laboring, the Lord is greatly blessing with fruit. I am greatly encouraged at the prospect of closing up our winter's work with many accessions to the truth."

From Japan, Brother F. W. Field writes as follows: "It does encourage us so much to know that the home conferences are taking hold so actively in fields beyond their own borders. How else can these countless oriental millions be reached? We hardly dare think of the great work to be done; it seems so great for the means we have to do with. If anywhere strong faith in this message is needed, it is out among the great masses that have never even heard of the true God. So every move in the home field to spread the light in the great regions beyond, is a great encouragement to the lonely toilers in these dark regions."

All who desire to be informed concerning the proceedings of the coming General Conference, to convene in Washington, D. C., May 11, can procure the same in the Review and Herald, which will publish full reports. Address, 222 N. Capitol Street, Washington, D. C. This will be the only means of procuring these reports in full. The regular price of the Review is $1.50 a year; six months, 75 cents. To subscribers for six months or over, no extra charge will be made; but, on account of the extra expense, the three months' subscriptions covering the conference proceedings, will be 50 cents. Eight pages will be added to the paper during the conference session and until the proceedings are all published. Now is the time to send in subscriptions, to insure getting this important matter.
