Books at Work.

Bro. Smith: The books that I have received from the Office are at work among my neighbors, and I feel to praise God for the good they, through Christ, are doing for them. There are now six Sabbath-keepers in this neighborhood, and others are inclining to the truth. My prayer is that the present truth may spread more and more.

Brethren, will you pray for us here in this wilderness of sin? I cannot tell you how it rejoiced my heart when I heard my neighbor say, I keep the commandments of God, and am trying to keep the faith of Jesus.

Brethren, I am trying to walk in the narrow way to life. My mind, my thoughts, my affections, are fixed on heaven, a future home where the saints will dwell forever with Christ. I am glad to hear through the Review from the scattered ones, in some places one, some places two, and some more. Let us hold fast the commandments of God, that we at last may have a right to the tree of life. Rev. xxii, 14.

I think if a messenger could come this way there might be much good done. James Jones. Duran, Pippin Co., Wis.
