AIM AND WORK.

To preach the Gospel to the poor. It originated in a sympathy with

the almost friendless slaves. Since Emancipation it has devoted its

main efforts to preparing the FREEDMEN for their duties as citizens

and Christians in America, and as missionaries in Africa. As

closely related to this, it seeks to benefit the caste-persecuted

CHINESE in America, and to co-operate with the Government in its

humane and Christian policy toward the INDIANS.

STATISTICS FOR 1882.

CHURCHES: _In the South_—In District of Columbia, 1; Virginia, 1;

North Carolina, 9; South Carolina, 2; Georgia, 14; Kentucky, 7;

pupils of our schools, estimated at 150,000. Indians under the care

of the Association, 13,000.

WANTS.

1. A steady INCREASE of regular income to keep pace with the

growing work. This increase can only be reached by _regular_ and

_larger_ contributions from the churches, the feeble as well as the

strong.

2. ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS for our higher educational institutions, to

accommodate the increasing numbers of students; MEETING HOUSES for

the new churches we are organizing; MORE MINISTERS, cultured and

pious, for these churches.

3. HELP FOR YOUNG MEN, to be educated as minsters here and

missionaries to Africa—a pressing want.

HORSFORD’S

ACID PHOSPHATE.

(LIQUID.)

FOR DYSPEPSIA, MENTAL AND PHYSICAL

EXHAUSTION, NERVOUSNESS,

DIMINISHED VITALITY, URINARY

DIFFICULTIES, ETC.

PREPARED ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTION OF

Prof. E. N. Horsford, of Cambridge, Mass.

There seems to be no difference of opinion in high medical

authority of the value of phosphoric acid, and no preparation has

ever been offered to the public which seems to so happily meet the

general want as this.

It is not nauseous, but agreeable to the taste.

No danger can attend its use.

Its action will harmonize with such stimulants as are necessary to

take.

It makes a delicious drink with water and sugar only.

Prices reasonable. Pamphlet giving further particulars mailed free

on application.

MANUFACTURED BY THE

RUMFORD CHEMICAL WORKS,

Providence, R.I.,
