It costs but four hundred dollars a missionary. Yet of those who have been appointed for the new year--some already at work, others now on the way--there are one hundred whose support is not yet provided; and only four hundred dollars a missionary! What a glow would enter the hearts of these noble, self-denying woman, if from the Woman's Bureau word might go that the ladies of such churches have provided for you, and you, and you! Weary with the constant drain upon mind and heart, as they come in contact with the warped, barren lives of the people whom they would help, how it would refresh them to feel that because they are your missionaries you are working for, thinking of and praying for them. One hundred woman missionaries unprovided for! At the word of the Lord we put out into the deep and let down the nets. The draught is great, our nets are breaking, and we beckon unto you, our partners in the other boat to come and help us--to share in the work and the reward. * * * * * RECEIPTS FOR OCTOBER, 1888.
