Patriarchs and Prophets,

Bay Islands

By L. O. Corwin

UTILLA.— We have been holding a number of Bible readings of late, and trying to do what we could to interest people in their salvation. We are glad to know that the Lord is blessing our efforts thus far. He has given us six new members. These were taken into the church subject to baptism. Three of these are among the largest students in our school. One is the wife of one of the wealthiest merchants of the Bay Islands. One, a young man, expects to go to Keene in a few weeks; and one young lady, twenty years old, desires to enter the work. Our school is progressing nicely. We are of good courage; not homesick in the least, and never have been.

The Belfast Sanitarium

By A. B. Olsen

IT may not be generally known among the readers of the REVIEW that a small branch sanitarium was started in Ireland early the present year. There has long been a demand for a health institution in the Emerald Isle, and our brethren and sisters in that field were very anxious to begin institutional work. Belfast is the center of our small community of Sabbath-keepers, and naturally was the place selected for the health institution.

About a year ago the first steps were taken toward the realization of a bath and treatment establishment. On returning from the autumn council of the General Conference and Mission Board, I told our friends in Ireland that the brethren in America would contribute one thousand dollars, provided they would furnish an equal amount, toward the establishment of treatment rooms in the city. The brethren eagerly accepted the proposition, and at once took the necessary measures to raise the funds. A committee was appointed last May, and they began at once to solicit donations.

While in this country, Dr. Kellogg twice visited Belfast in the interests of the new institution, giving the friends there his counsel and encouragement. He addressed two large meetings at the Y. M. C. A. hall, which were the means of stirring up a large interest in the enterprise. The Good Health has had a large circulation in Belfast from its very start, and a considerable number of Dr. Kellogg's health books have also been sold in the place. By these means an interest was awakened in health reform, and the citizens were prepared to support the institution when it was started.

The Belfast Sanitarium is located in one of the most beautiful residential parts of Belfast, a city of about three hundred and fifty thousand inhabitants. It is on the Antrim Road, a highway to the famous Cave Hill, which is visited by all strangers going to Belfast. The tram lines pass in front of the house, which is set well back from the street, and within two minutes' walk of one of the public parks. Of course the house is rented. The rent, taxes, and water rates amount to about sixty-five pounds, the rent alone is fifty pounds.

The house is a double-fronted one with three floors, and twelve good-sized rooms. The illustration on this page does not do justice to the place, but will perhaps give a fair idea of its size. On the ground floor, the room on the left is a dining-room; the one on the right a drawing- and sitting-room. Back of the drawing-room is the massage and treatment room and back of that, with a glass roof, is the bath room, which also contains the needle spray. Back of the dining-room is a large, well-lighted kitchen, with several ample pantries close at hand; and at the rear of the building is the heating apparatus, which is very simple and efficient. It supplies hot water to the bath rooms, and also steam to two or three radiators. The second floor contains three large bedrooms, a large, well-lighted medical office, a laboratory with one window at the end of the hall, a small bedroom, and a second bath room, which is nicely equipped with bath tub, spray, and massage table. The third floor contains four large, comfortable bedrooms. They are more commodious than one would judge from the photograph.

The place has been equipped from the money raised by donations. The friends in Ireland have already raised in cash about two hundred pounds, with a little more to come in; this is an average of ten dollars for each Sabbath-keeper in Ireland. So far no money has been received from America for this enterprise, but with the consent of the General Conference the International Tract Society of London has very generously advanced one hundred and sixty pounds in behalf of the donation from our American brethren. There are still some items of equipment that have not yet been secured, but like the new institution in Caterham, the Belfast Sanitarium has never incurred any debt, and those in charge of it are determined to avoid debt at all events.

Just as soon as the place was opened, patients came, and according to the last word received, they had six resident patients, which is practically their full capacity, unless they put two in every guest chamber, and that is hardly possible. Besides these, they have a considerable number of non-resident patients, citizens of the town, who come in for the treatment regularly. The success of the Belfast Sanitarium has been most gratifying from the start, and we believe that it will be the means of accomplishing much good for the spread of the work in Ireland.

The board of managers consists of Dr. J. J. Bell; Elder William Hutchinson; G. B. Replogle; J. McAvoy; J. MacCreary. Dr. Bell is the superintendent, and his sister, Miss Isabella Bell, is the matron. Other members of the staff consist of Delmer Baker, of California, and Sister Annie Wright, of London, nurses; with Brother David MacClelland and Sister Pace as assistants. Dr. Bell is a qualified physician and surgeon, both in the United Kingdom and in the United States. He completed his work in Dublin University about a year ago, and since then has been busily engaged in work.

Great care and economy have been used in selecting the outfit for the institution, but everything is substantial and neat, and both the public and private rooms are exceedingly attractive. No matter where one goes in the institution, everything is clean and neat. The bath room, although not very large, is almost ideal in its equipment and arrangement, with a glass, glazed roof, which makes it very light, and gives an air of cheerfulness to everything. At one corner is a Russian bath room, which is provided with a marble slab. There is an excellent white enamel full-bath tub, a sitz bath of the same material, and a steam boiler for the fomentation cloths. The nickel-plate combined needle spray, shower, and douche apparatus was made at the Battle Creek Sanitarium, and is one of the attractions of the place.

Belfast is one of the most enterprising cities of the United Kingdom, and in the

opinion of many, more nearly resembles an American city than any other place. It is nicely located at the head of Belfast Loch, and is noted the world over for its shipyards. Here the famous “Celtic,” “Cedric,” and “Oceanic” were built, and only a few weeks ago the keel for a still larger vessel was laid at the leading shipyard. This vessel, when completed, will be the largest in the world, while the “Cedric,” which was recently put into commission, is now the largest vessel afloat. The surroundings of Belfast are beautiful, especially in the direction of the Cave Hill, an illustration of which is shown on page 19. The road is the one that passes the sanitarium, and leads out directly to the famous caves, of which there are several. The highest part of the hill is called McCarr's Point, and is more than a thousand feet above the sea level.

The Belfast Sanitarium bids fair to become a splendid success, and I trust it will be the means of accomplishing a vast amount of good in the cause of true reform. Similar health institutions ought to be started in some of the other large towns and cities of Ireland. There is no better means of reaching the masses of the people than through genuine medical missionary work. May God bless this work, and bless all the workers who have so nobly given their lives to follow in the footsteps of the Master.

Ceylon

By Anna Orr

COLOMBO.— The first of November I came south with a young lady who accepted the truth not long ago, and who had been canvassing and doing Bible work. We traveled toward Madras, stopping at different stations en route. The Lord blessed our efforts for the books and papers in every place.

At Hyderabad, the most oriental city I have seen in India, we were invited to a Mahratta dinner. The father and mother of the family were Christians. There was present a strange mixture of nationalities,—an Australian missionary, two English missionaries, an ex-Mohammedan, a converted Jewess, Bengalis, Mahrattas, and one American missionary. After dinner we had hymns in Mahratta, Bengali, and English. The dinner was served in native style. We sat down on mats, and had large plantain leaves for plates. This was my first experience in eating rice with my fingers, but I managed it fairly well. They had compassion when the pudding came, and brought us some spoons. I tasted a certain green, pretty-looking mixture on my plate. I paid dear for my experience. My mouth was on fire, and nature refused to pass over the outrage without giving expression in some way to the fact that my mucous membrane had been abused. The tears flowed freely.

After leaving Hyderabad, we came to Madras, where we remained over a month, and then came to Colombo, stopping at different stations en route, crossing over to Ceylon the 13th of January. We expect to finish in another week, and will soon go up the mountains to Nawaraeliya. Here we shall have a breath of cold weather. This is the warmest month in Ceylon, and it is very hot; but it is wonderful how the Lord has helped us to endure the heat. We go out about eight in the morning, and usually work till noon, and then go home to dinner, and go out again from three to four P. M. The Cingalese are an interesting and progressive people. Many of the men read and speak English. We have here Burghers (a mixture of Dutch and native) and Cingalese. Many of the Cingalese homes do not look like native homes, as they use furniture quite generally. But I have learned to recognize them, usually by a certain arrangement of the furniture. They seem to be more progressive than the people of India, with the exception of the Parsees. They are largely Buddhists.

Ceylon is a charming place. What I have seen of it calls to mind those lines,—

“What though the spicy breezes Blow soft o’er Ceylon’s isle; Though every prospect pleases, And only man is vile; In vain with lavish kindness The gifts of God are strewn; The heathen in his blindness, Bows down to wood and stone.”

The Lord has not only favored us with success in selling books and getting orders for the papers, but he has turned the hearts of strangers to show us unusual favors. We are both happy in the work, and thankful for a part in it. I do not mean that there are no shadows and trials, but out of even these the Lord brings blessings. We expect to go back up the west coast of India to Bangalore, and on to Bombay. If all goes well, we shall reach Bombay about the first of June, and canvass that city during the rainy season. It will not be difficult to canvass during the monsoons, as so many of the people live in blocks. One can find a morning’s work in some of those buildings. We are sadly in need of more canvassers. Some one ought to be canvassing at Bombay now. The subscriptions are running out, and we can not go there before June. I never before had such a love for the canvassing work. I would like to remain in it until the Lord comes. We have some most interesting experiences. ANNA ORR.

The General Meeting in Scotland

By John Oscar Corliss

This meeting convened in Glasgow, April 1, and continued five days. It was not so large a gathering as the annual meeting in Ireland, but I think just as important. There are only about sixty believers in Scotland, but there is a good prospect for a much larger number before the close of the present year, providing the plans made at the annual meeting do not fail.

Inasmuch as the division of the British field was effected less than one year ago, this was the first annual convocation of Scotch believers in the third angel's message. Of course some were not well acquainted with conference methods, but when matters were understood, the business moved off expeditiously. Credentials were granted to W. A. Westworth, and ministerial licenses were voted to D. P. Miller, E. Aplin, R. M. Lamie, J. Netherey, and Miss Mary Lamie.

The choice for chairman of the mission board for the coming year fell on W. A. Westworth, with W. B. Scott for secretary, and E. Aplin for treasurer. The associate members of the board chosen were W. B. Scott, E. Aplin, R. M. Lamie, and C. Dyer.

Some gratifying facts were brought out concerning the canvassing work. The mission has ten canvassers, who average in sales £3 10s., or $17, a week the entire year. One man told me that for seven years he had supported his family, which now consists of six members, by canvassing. Of course all the agents do not do so well, but taking them all together, the average is as before stated.

I can not forbear mentioning a remarkable praise service enjoyed in that meeting. After a discourse on the Sabbath by Elder Olsen, the meeting was given to the congregation, when those in attendance followed one another in quick succession, testifying to the preciousness of the Lord to them in their Christian experience. It was a feast to me, because it was so much like meetings I had attended in other parts of the world, and it clearly testified to the uniform value of God's blessing to the believer. The good results of this meeting can not fail to be manifest in the labors to follow it, in the Scotch Mission field. J. O. CORLISS.

Tobago

By W. G. Kneeland; I. H. Mathews

THIS island is twenty-six miles long and seven and one-half miles wide, and contains one hundred fourteen and one-half square miles. It is situated in 11° 9' north latitude and 60° 43' west longitude, and is eighteen miles from Trinidad, to which it is politically connected. Its surface is rough and mountainous, and only a small portion is cultivated, although the soil is fertile. For the first one hundred and fifty years after its discovery and settlement, Tobago's history is full of tales of bloody conflicts and disastrous wars between the Dutch, French, and English. After varying successes and failures, the English gained full control in 1793, which they still maintain. Its many ruined forts and decaying buildings speak of prosperous times, disappointed hopes, and the vanity of earthly things.

Formerly sugar was the principal export, but low prices brought financial trouble, and most of the estates are abandoned or turned into stock farms. Cocoa and coffee partly supply the demand of the people. Other products could be profitably raised.

Missionary operations were begun here by the Church of England in 1781, by the Moravians in 1789, followed by the Wesleyans in 1810. A good quantity of our literature has been sold by our agents. Here where so many battles have been fought for worldly honor and power, we have entered in the name of the Prince of peace to sound the last message of mercy to a dying world. If faithful, we expect to have sheaves for the heavenly garner from this island.

West Coast, Africa

By D. U. Hale

CAPE COAST CASTLE, GOLD COAST.—I am once more landed safely on the Gold Coast of West Africa. I am heartily glad I am here. The natives who knew me before, gave us a very hearty welcome. I hope to accomplish more in a much shorter time than I did before when here. One thing is evident, and that is that I must get away from the coast with my family, if we expect to be of value to the cause of present truth.

I wish you success in all your attempts to send the gospel into all places. Hasten it, for I do not want to stay here too long; yet I hope to remain till Jesus comes. D. U. HALE.

Work for the Master

By Ellen G. White

WITH every age God's plan deepens and broadens. His people are to adjust their movements to his progressive plan. They are to move forward with the force of Omnipotence, because they move in harmony with the divine purpose. They are to seize every opportunity to bless the world lying in darkness.

OUR church members should show greater devotion. They should labor with greater zeal for the promulgation of the last message of mercy. Now is the time for all to work. Now is the time to separate from every species of self-indulgence. Those who are engaged in the Lord's service are to labor unselfishly, pressing together in Christian unity. They are to love as brethren; they are to be kind and courteous; their influence is to be a savor of life unto life.

MANY young men and women now engaged in secular labor will feel impressed to give themselves to the service of God. Some will feel a desire to enter the canvassing field, and will become able evangelists. Let these be given opportunity to obtain an education for the work of God.

THOSE who are impressed to enter the work, whether in the home field or in the regions beyond, are to go forward in the name of the Lord. If they depend on God for grace and strength, they will succeed. At the beginning their work may be small, but if they follow the Lord's plans, it will enlarge. God lives. He will work for the unselfish, self-sacrificing laborer, whoever or wherever he may be.

GOD does not ask his servants to show their devotion to him by burying themselves in monasteries or by going on long pilgrimages. It is not necessary to do this in order to show a willingness to deny self. It is by working for those for whom Christ died that we show true love for him. By humiliation, suffering, and death Christ purchased the salvation of human beings. Those who love him will think how he laid aside his glory, and came to this earth to live the life of the poorest, suffering often from hunger. “Foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests,” he said; “but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.”

TO each human being God has assigned a work. Abraham was called to go forth from his home, a light-bearer to the heathen. And without questioning, he obeyed. “He went out, not knowing whither he went.” So to-day Christ's servants are to go where he calls, trusting him to guide them and give them success.

GOD'S people are to feel a noble, generous sympathy for every line of work carried on in the great harvest field. By their baptismal vows they are pledged to make earnest, self-denying efforts to promote, in the hardest parts of the field, the work of soul-saving. God has placed on every believer the responsibility of striving to rescue the helpless.

TO those who profess to believe in him, God says, “Go forth to all parts of the world, and diffuse the light of my truth, that men and women may be led to Christ.” Let us awake to our duty. Let us do all that we can to help forward the Lord's work. Let superficial excuses be blown to the winds of heaven. No longer grieve the Spirit of God by delaying. Forget not the words, “We are laborers together with God.” Co-operate with the angels sent down from the heavenly courts to minister to those who shall be heirs of salvation.

TIME is passing; the end is near. While you are unconsecrated, golden opportunities for helping souls to see Jesus as he is—full of grace and truth—are passing by, never to return. That which you have not done as a devoted Christian in the past, you can not now do. But through the grace of Christ you may redeem the time by redoubling your efforts. Let your interest in the souls for whom Christ has died deepen and broaden. Inquire not, “What shall this man do?” for then Christ would say to you, as he said to Peter, “What is that to thee?” Keep your own soul in the love of the truth, and work with untiring endeavor to win souls to the Saviour.

EARNEST, self-sacrificing workers are needed, workers who will go to God, and with strong crying and tears plead for the precious souls who are going to ruin. There can be no harvest without seed-sowing, no result without effort.

THE work is fast closing up, and on every side wickedness is increasing. We have but a short time in which to work. Let us awake from spiritual slumber, and consecrate all that we have and are to the Lord. His Spirit will abide with true missionaries, furnishing them with power for service. God is an overflowing fountain of strength. The gospel is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes. When this power is utilized, it will be found to be more than sufficient to meet the power of the enemy.—Mrs. E. G. White, in Southern Watchman.

California Laborers Abroad

By J. O. Corliss

I HAVE just returned home from London and Birmingham. At London I met those of the California laborers who are there pursuing their preparation for the fields “beyond.” The Brethren Bond are studying Spanish, with the promise of success. Their teacher in this language gives good reports of their work from time to time. Brother Marchus is also studying with a view to working outside of the English tongue. Brother Delmer Baker is doing good work, both in school and in the canvassing field.

A letter just received from Brother C. T. Everson states that he is making preparations for the prosecution of vigorous work in Rome. He has already secured a house in which to live, at 79 Via Napoli, at which place he would be glad to hear from his friends. He says that he likes Rome and its people, and is pleased in every way with his chosen field of labor. We shall look for early reports of success from him and his lady workers. I have heard nothing from Brother Gauterau since he left England for France. It may be that something will be at hand from him by the time of my next report.

Elder Ballenger reports that Brother Halladay is doing good work in Wales. Brother D. A. Parsons reports from Hull that he has all the cottage work he can do, and that he has a large and growing congregation each Sunday night. He looks for a harvest of souls from his effort in that place. Brother McCord seems to be having some success in Birmingham. Seven persons were baptized by him last Sabbath, the fruit of earlier work by Elder Haughey, which has been followed up and matured through the labor of Brother McCord.

The British Union Conference Council which I attended in London suggested that I spend the rest of the month of March in Belfast, Ireland, to assist Brother Hutchinson and his workers in that field. Immediately following the general meeting in Ireland, which will be held the last week of March, I have been invited to attend the general meeting for Scotland, to be held in Glasgow the first week in April. Then, if present plans hold, I expect to remove my family to Leicester, and make preparations for a summer's tent campaign in that place, which has a population of over 211,000.

The work in which I am now to engage is the first I have been permitted to do for six weeks, on account of an accident which confined me to my room. I am now recovering strength slowly, and hope to be able soon to do my usual amount of work.

As near as I can learn, all the California workers are contented in their new field. For my own part, I feel as much at home here as in the States. I see no reason why this is not an excellent field in which to labor for souls.—J. O. Corliss, in Pacific Union Recorder.
