The American Missionary — Volume 33, No. 12, December 1879
Various
Congregational churches -- Missions -- Periodicals; Home missions -- Periodicals
Commenced with January, 1872, and is near the completion of its
eighth year. It at present issues 54,000 weekly, which go to
subscribers all over the Union. Its issues from the beginning
have been over twenty millions of copies, each containing a
great variety of very interesting matter, namely: News of the
day, Prices Current, Financial Report, Spirit of the New York
Daily Press, Home Department (consisting chiefly of Letters
from Ladies), with a column of letters from children; General
Correspondence from all parts of the country, much of it valuable
for intending colonists; Departments for Agriculture, Temperance,
Sabbath-School, Religious Reading, including Daily Report of
Fulton Street Prayer-meeting; Serial and other Stories. It gives
more reading matter than any other religious weekly, and has
probably fully 300,000 readers, as many copies serve more than
one family. It has drawn forth unsolicited commendation from
thousands of readers, many of whom pronounce it the best paper
for the family and the country they ever saw. The price is $1.50
a year; clubs of five will be supplied for $6 a year, the papers
being addressed separately and postpaid.
SABBATH READING.
This small, neat eight-page weekly paper is filled with the
choicest reading matter suitable for the Sabbath day, among which
is one first-class sermon in each number. The matter in this
paper is all different from what appears in the WEEKLY WITNESS.
It has no news or advertisements, editorials or communications,
but is just a choice selection of good, religious, temperance
matter, suited for all classes and all regions, and specially
suited for distribution as a most acceptable tract. Price one
cent per copy, or 50 cents per annum. Ten copies (520) to one
address for a year, postpaid, for $4; or 100 copies for $35. This
is found to be an excellent weekly for the more advanced classes
in Sabbath-schools.
All the above terms are cash in advance, and the papers stop when
subscription expires unless previously renewed. Sample copies of
any or all of them will be sent free if applied for by postal
card or otherwise.
The above publications will be sent on approbation for a month
to any address for: DAILY WITNESS, 25 cents; WEEKLY WITNESS, 10
cents; SABBATH READING, 5 cents, or sample copies free.
