Fixed principles of truth are the only safeguard for youth.

It is a religious duty for those who cook to learn how to prepare food in different ways, hygienically, for the table, so that it may be eaten with enjoyment.

Those who use tobacco, tea and coffee should lay these idols aside, and put their cost into the treasury of the Lord.

In these letters which I write, in the testimonies I bear, I am presenting to you that which the Lord has presented to me. I do not write one article in the paper expressing merely my own ideas. They are what God has opened before me in vision--the precious rays of light shining from the throne.

And when the blessing is pronounced on those who have honored God by keeping His Sabbath holy, there is a mighty shout of victory.
