=SABBATH READING.=

SEEING that all Sunday magazines and most religious
weeklies have much secular matter, especially
advertisements, I have thought that there was an
obvious want of a weekly paper composed of matter of
a high order of excellence and interest, and wholly
suitable for perusal on the Sabbath-day. Such a paper
is SABBATH READING. Every number contains a first-class
sermon, which may be read in meetings where there is no
preaching, or at home by persons necessarily detained
from church; also much excellent selected matter, some of
which is specially adapted for children.

SABBATH READING is a handsome small eight-page paper,
suitable in appearance for the parlor table, and suitable
for binding at the end of the year or half year. It is
sent post-paid to any address for 50 cents a year, and
stops when the subscription expires. A club of five will
be supplied for a year for two dollars.

This paper, which makes a most acceptable tractate for
distribution in prisons, poor-houses, asylums, ships,
etc., or in visitation from house to house, is sent
post-paid to any part of the continent at the rate of a
dollar per 100 copies.

the best Commentaries of the Puritans.

Dr. Thomas, of _The Homilist_, says: “We most cordially
advise our ministerial readers to enrich their libraries
with this magnificent and wondrously cheap edition of the
works of the Puritan Divines.”

Philippians, and Cartwright on Colossians. 3d. King on

=HOW TO OBTAIN THE MISSIONARY.=

Enclose Fifty Cents for your subscription (or One Dollar
for two years, or for yourself and some friend), to H. W.
Hubbard, Esq., Assistant Treasurer, 56 Reade Street, New
York.

If a Life Member or Pastor or S. S. Superintendent of a
contributing church, or an annual contributor of $5 or
more to the A. M. A., order it sent to you on that ground.

Keep us informed of your changes of address, etc.

=HOW TO READ THE MISSIONARY.=

In these busy days few people read anything all through;
but you can do better than to open at random, read a page
and lay aside. 1. Read the Editorial paragraphs for the
latest aspects of our work. 2. Read the titles of longer
Editorials and Contributions to see if they contain
anything you want. 3. Read through at least the one which
attracts you most. 4. The General Notes furnish a summary
of facts, opinions, legislation, discussion, and progress
concerning the three races of our cares, such as you will
not find elsewhere. 5. Glance over headings of Letters
from the Field, and you will be sure to find something
you will want to know more about.

=HOW TO CIRCULATE THE MISSIONARY.=

Mark something which interests you in it, and lend it to
your neighbor.

Read or refer to a fact gleaned from it in your Prayer
Meeting or Monthly Concert.

Secure subscriptions for it in your church or community.
We will send you a list of present subscribers in your
town to work from, if you request it.

=HOW TO PRESERVE THE MISSIONARY.=

It is often useful for reference. The December Number
contains minutes of the Annual Meeting. The February
Number has our list of workers. Friends from contributing
Churches come to the office for information, which, nine
times out of ten, is pointed out to them in a recent
MISSIONARY.

To preserve and bind them, punch two holes near the back
and three inches from top and bottom, through which put
a string and tie behind; open and add as the monthly
numbers come to you. This makes a simple, cheap, flexible
and effective binding, and is not patented.

ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT.

We invite special attention to this department, of which
our low rates and large circulation make its pages
specially valuable. Our readers are among the best in the
country, having an established character for integrity
and thrift that constitutes them valued customers in all
departments of business.

To Advertisers using display type and cuts, who are
accustomed to the “RULES” of the best Newspapers,
requiring “DOUBLE RATES” for these “LUXURIES,” our wide
pages, fine paper, and superior printing, with =no extra
charge for cuts=, are advantages readily appreciated,
and which add greatly to the appearance and effect of
business announcements.

Gratified with the substantial success of this
department, we solicit orders from all who have
unexceptionable wares to advertise.

Advertisements must be received by the TENTH of the
month, in order to secure insertion in the following
number. All communications in relation to advertising
should be addressed to

J. H. DENISON, Adv’g Agent,
56 Reade Street, New York.

☛ =Our friends who are interested in the Advertising
Department of the “American Missionary” can aid us in
this respect by mentioning, when ordering goods, that
they saw them advertised in our Magazine.=
