Those who wish to remember the AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION in their last Will and Testament, are earnestly requested to use the following FORM OF A BEQUEST. “I BEQUEATH to my executor (or executors) the sum of —— dollars in trust, to pay the same in —— days after my decease to the person who, when the same is payable, shall act as Treasurer of the ‘American Missionary Association’ of New York City, to be applied, under the direction of the Executive Committee of the Association, to its charitable uses and purposes.” The will should be attested by three witnesses [in some States three are required—in other States only two], who should write against their names, their places of residence [if in cities, their street and number]. The following form of attestation will answer for every State in the Union: “Signed, sealed, published and declared by the said [A. B.] as his last Will and Testament, in presence of us, who, at the request of the said A. B., and in his presence, and in the presence of each other, have hereunto subscribed our names as witnesses.” In some States it is required that the Will should be made at least two months before the death of the testator. * * * * * THE CONGREGATIONALIST FOR 1881.

WASHINGTON GLADDEN, and other well-known writers. “WITHOUT A HOME” Is the name of a story by Rev. E. P. ROE, running through the columns of THE CONGREGATIONALIST nine or ten months this season. More than 200,000 copies of Mr. Roe’s books have been sold, a fact which indicates the great demand there is for them. Our Sabbath-school Department for 1881 is under the charge of the Rev. A. F. SCHAUFFLER, of New York, who is known as one of the most suggestive writers and thinkers on this subject in the country. Our Children’s Department is sustained by such writers as Mr. C. C. COFFIN, ERNEST INGERSOLL (on Natural History), W. J. ROLFE, CLARA ERSKINE CLEMENT, and others equally eminent, and it will be found entertaining and instructive to all, both to young and old.
