We issue tbe Tn hex to-day in her new and stylish spring dress, and in quarto form. We have given lar ger type, because the demands of our readers were consulted. We have changed the form of the paper, for the same reason. For some time, we have been nrged by many of our best men and liberal supporters to change to the form in which we is sue the Index to-day. Beside en deavoring to meet the wishes of our patrons the question of expense also induced the change. It is not so costly, nor so much trouble .to issue it in the present form, as formerly. Then the change gives considerably larger paper, more space for reading and also more advertising space. The reader is benefited in every way by the change and we hope all w ill be delighted. Let the Baptist of Geor gia, co-operate in building up the circulation of the Index and their denominational institutions and in terests will be benefited in like pro porton. THE COLUMBIAN CYCLOPEDIA. We have carefully examined sev eral volumes of this work and cheer fully recommend it to those who are in need of a handy and comprehen sensive reference library. It is brought down to date. As far as our examination goes, it is ac curate, reliable, and sufficiently full, in the treatment of subjects, for all ordinary purposes. The binding is good, the paper on which it is printed is of a fair quality* while the typo is clear and large enough to be easily read. The price, compared with that of works of like character, is low and brings it within reach of almost every reader. THE WORLD'S FAIR. The Columbian Society of the United States has perfected a plan by which ererytody can spend a M eek at WRICE'S rteal” Baking JUiUiaM of Borneo—4o Years the Standard, 7 . «ij' / 1 -■ - F * the Chicago Exposition under the most favorable conditions and at a reasonable exjiense which nlay be paid in weekly or monthly instal ments. They agree to furnish first-class transportation to Chicago and return, at any time after the opening of the Exposition; first-class room and meals for seven days ; six admissions; $3,- 000 accident insurance for 15 days and a copy of tbe World,s Columbian Exposition Illustrated each month from date of membership. The projectors and officers of the Society are well known railway and fraternity men and if you wish to go to the Exposition, write to the General Officers of the Society, 173 Broadway, New York, for further in formation. A Lucky Escape , Fortunato is the man or M'oman residing in a malaria-ridden locality who escapes tbe dreaded scourge. Not one in a thousand does. When the endemic is a periodical and wide spread visitation, i(|is just as com mon to sec whole communities suf fering from it as single individuals. The most vigorous constitution is not prooof against it—how much less a system feeble or disordered. As a means of protection against malaria, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is the smm medicinal agent. It will up root any form of malarial disease im planted in the systerii and even in re gions where miasmatic complaints are most malignant and deadly, such as the Isthmus of Panama, Guatemala and the tropics generally, it is justly regarded as an efficient safeguard. No less efficacious is it as a curative and preventive of chronic idigestion, liver trouble, constipation, rheuma tism kidney complaint and la grippe. Life of C. 11. Spurgeon.—We are pleased to acknowledge receipt of a beautiful copy of the Life of Chas -11. Spurgeon, by that prince of au thors, Russell 11. Conwell, and pub lished by Hubbard Brothers, Phila delphia, Pa. The book is gotten up in clear, large type, neatly printed and very attractively bound. The book gives the reader a very lively insight into the active duties of pas toral work and the many enterprises of the subject. The frontispiece is devoted to a full page portrait of the great preacher, and the volume of more than 600 pagea, is largely illus trated. If you desire the work, send ♦ 1.50 to the publishers, Messrs Hub bard Bros., 406 Race street, Phila delphia, Pa. Don’t wait till you are ready to buy a cyclopedia and then take the first that conies along. Better look before hand. The Columbian is the latest, the cheapest and pronounced by lead ing scholars the best. Samples of this most excellent work will be sent you free of charge by addressing A. 8. Jones, general southern agent, 71 Whitehall St., Atlanta, Ga. We invite especial attention to the several advertisements of the American Baptist Publication Society in this issue. Ministers, superinten dents and teachers of Sabliath school*, scalous working laymen, and pupils in the Sabbath-schools will find it to their interest to read these advertisements. Indeed every Bap tist should read them and bo profited thereby. THE CHRISTIAN INDEX: THURSDAY APRIL 7,1892. JUDGE LESTER DEAD- v Wednesday night last, Attorney General George N. Lester, died at his home near Marietta. He was a dis tinguished lawyer, jurist, soilder and statesman. He was a man much loved by the people of Georgia. He was elected Attorney General over one of the ablest lawyers in the state. He rose from poverty to a high and honored position in life, and leaves many friends to mourn his death. Au Introduction to the through car service of Wiscon sin Central Lines and northern Paci fic Railroad is unnecessary. Its ad vantages and conveniences have been fully established. It is the only route to the Pacific coast over which both Pulman Vestibuled first class and Pullman Tourist Cars are operated from Chicago via St. Paul without change. Through train leaves Chica go every day at 10:45 p. in. The tra veler via this route passes through the most picturesque, interesting and pros perous belt of country in the West ern World. There is scenery with most striking contrasts that range from the rolling prairie and the pine forest level to the wildest mountains in the world. There is a series of the noblest cities, towns and villages of every va riety and size, from the hamlet or the tiny farm, upward, tbe richest mines in the world, the greenest and most lasting pasturage; this wildest scenery on the continent; hills, canons as weird as a nightmare; hills,snows and peaks startling in the magnificence of their beauty, and a perfection of comfort in traveling that has t never been surpassed.

April 7th 2m Please note the appeal of Dr. J. G. Gibson, our able and faithful cor responding Secretary. The Index will cheerfully comply with the sug gestion made by him and give the space asked for. We set apart two departments—one the Home Board Department, and the other the State Board Department. Brethren of the Boards, the Index is your servant. We trust our readers will under stand that this issue had to be set up in new type entirely, from beginning to end. In addition we moved from the old office to our present place 57| •South Broad St. Besides these we have had a very large amount of new advertising to come in the past M’eck. We will come out all right next is sue. The Columbian Cyclopedia con tains the standard matter of other cyclopedias revised to date. It is the only cyclopedia that pronounces all words and contains an Una bridged Dictionary, ft is very cheap and terms easy, 82 volumes. Send for sample to A. S. Jones, Southern Agent, 71 Whitehal St., Atlanta, Ga. We commend to the readers of the Index our good Baptist brethren, Messrs. Lumpkin, Cole and Stewart. They carry a large and select stock of clothing and gents furnishing goods. This firm has gradually built up a nice trade, but they deserve a larger patronage. When you are in need of anything in their line read their advertisement and call on them. Among the many new attractive advertisements in this issue of the Index is that of Shorter College. This splendid college for young la dies is doing an admirable work under the direction of President Bat tie and Prof. Ivy W. Duggan. We commend them and Shorter College to nil parents having daughters to educate. ROME BUSINESS UNIVERSITY, ROME, GA. Among those business colleges of the South that have won the confi dence and patronage of the thinking people, the Rome Business Universi ty stands prominently in the front rank. At this college a thorough business course is given, and young men are thoroughly fitted to fill the highest positions which require a business education. We present to our readers the above, in the interest of those who wish to attend a first-class business college that is reasonable in its charges, and where good board can be had as cheaply as in any city in the Union. A diploma from this col lege is a sure passport in getting a lucrative situation.—Southern Trade Review. The pastors, superintendents and teachers of Sabbath-schools of the South M ill find an advertisement of the periodicals published under the auspices of the Sunday-school Board of the Southern Baptist Convention, elsewhere in the Index. We com mend these publications for their neat typographical appearance and real worth, as to their literary and re ligious merit. Dr. Frost, as the Secretary of the Board, is doing all in his power to make them indispen sable to every school. It will lie of interest to the ladies to read the article headed “The Womans Mis sionary Societies.” We invite the attention of our readers to the interesting advertise ment of Griggs’ German Philosophi cal Classics for English readers and students.

THE REASONS » for the success of this Book are numer ous, but the principal ones are 1 Because it is pre-eminently a book foe • Baptist churches. 1U BUM | are well known in the, denomination. They were aided in selecting hymn* suitable for Baptist Congregations by a large committee of leading pastors and laymen—Representing every sec tion of our country. Because the arrangement of the tunes presents a choice of two tunes to nearly every hymn—the upper part of the page containing the old English and German melodics, while the lowor part is devoted to the modern ana more familiar music of our own times. 3 Because the excellent arrangement of _ the indices, and the strong and service. able binding, excellent printing and fine paper, enables us to present *THB BAFITST HYMNAL” as an almost per fect hymn book. Rev. W. R. L. Smith, D. D. Pastor of First Baptist church Nashville, Tenn said: "I have used several hymnbooks in the last twelve years, and have found none so satisfac tory as the Baptist Hymnal. We have recent ly introduced it into our churches, to the spec ial gratification of choir and congregation. 1 believe it has no equal among Baptist hymn ana tune books. PRICES.
