Nov. Mar. June. Sept. Dec. MISSING PAPERS. The mails are very uncertain, and many papers which are started to subscribers never reach them. If you miss a number, don’t cen sure the publisher, and don’t remain silent, but report the loss to him and an other will be mailed.. Persons who do without the papers they have paid for, and complain of the publisher, do injus tice to all concerned. IMPORTANT. If “Subscription ex pires with this issue” is printed here in red ink, please remit for renewal at once. Don't wait for an agent to visit you.

This is the only business method which is just to both publisher and subscriber. We are sure Woman’s Work will be a bless ing in your home. Don't let it stop. Be careful to give name as we have it on our list. For instance, if we have mailed the paper to Mrs. Jno. Smith, it will cause confusion for her to renew as Mrs. Julia Smith.

The contents make it a welcome visitor to the wealth iest and most learned, the price places it within the reach of all classes. It should be worth ten times its cost in any family. The only restriction on elub raisers is that each one must send fifty cents for a year’s subscription, unless already taking Wo man’s Work. Persons in small places have sent us clubs of ten to fifty names. You can do as well; in fact, there is no limit to what effort can accomplish. Send your subscription and ask for copies to be used in canvassing. THEY ALWAYS PLEASE. Dear Woman’s Work: The berry-bowl was received safely. It is lovely—well worth working for.

YOU May be reading Woman’s Work for the first time; if so, we hope you will subscribe at once, as we feel sure that it must please you. Think of such a magazine for only 50 cents a year.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. “While thousands at His bidding speed And post o’er land and ocean without rest, They also serve, who only stand and wait.” It is well known that Robert Raikes, of London, was the founder of Sunday Schools—the centenary of which was cele brated a few years ago. Many thousands are now engaged in the great work, and with the growth of the same, there has been an equally marvellous improvement in the moral and religious condition of the world. It may be possible that more good is done by the simple lessons—given in the Sunday Schools —than by learned dis courses from the pulpit. The Sunday School movement has given birth to Bible Societies and Young Men’s Christian As sociations. The idea of a Bible Society was suggested by a Welsh Sunday School teacher, who found some difficulty in ob taining. a supply of Bibles for his pupils. The founder of the Young Men’s Christian Association of London, having observed that many boys on growing into manhood, quit the Sunday School, fell into vicious ways, and were lost, thought that as a means of saving them, a Society would be beneficial. More than three hundred years ago, a body of Romish priests made a great fire in Earl Street, London, and burned every Bible that could be found, after which they congratulated themselves that, at last, the Bible was destroyed. To-day, on the very spot where this fire was built, stands the great building of the British and Foreign Bible Society where the Bi ble is printed in one hundred and seventy languages. Rose Heath.
