'We have a double reason for directing attention to "Until the Daybreak, or Birthday Mottoes for the Homeward Way." In the first place the drawing is as delicate as the designing is graceful. In the second place, as we are informed, the proceeds are to be devoted to the laudable object of endowing a cot in the Mildmay Cottage Hospital. Until the Day. break" is really a diary in blank, so it is intended to serve a useful purpose; and each page is encircled with wreaths of flowers or tendrils of foliage, while the mottoes are a felicitous selection of texts."-Times. prepaid and addressed to

SPECIAL NOTICE.

TO THE CLERGY AND OTHERS.

HOME WORDS" FOR 1885.

Edited by the Rev. CHARLES BULLOCK, B. D., Author of "The Way Home," etc.
ESPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR LOCALISATION.

100,000 FREE COPIES of the January Canvassing Number offered to the Clergy.

THE FIRST HUNDRED FREE: THE REST HALF-PRICE.

Thus the January Number, with Pastoral Address (600 Words), may be placed in every house in a parish on the following terms:

600

19s. 4 d.

As a rule, the people would gladly pay 1d. for each copy, and continue to take the Magazine. Thus, taking a parish with 1000 population, the expenditure of 5s. 14d. for 200, yielding at 1d., 16s. 8d., would probably put into circulation during twelve months 2000 copies.

1000

£1, 12s. 4 d.

**The circulation of a Localised Magazine-sure to be read, because purchased-saves the heavy cost of Tract Distribution. Moreover, the Notices of Sermons, Meetings, etc., on the Covers, will often save the cost of Bills and Circulars. Subscriptions are also often obtained through this channel.

**Specimen Copy and full particulars sent on application to Mr. CHARLES MURRAY, Home Words Office, 7 Paternoster Square, E. C. From the LORD BISHOP OF RIPON-"It is superfluous for me to say anything in praise of Home Words. Large as its circulation is, I wish that it was doubled."

The January Number will be ready almost immediately, to further Localisation in new Parishes.

OUR ALMANACKS FOR 1885

ARE NOW READY.

THE "FIRESIDE" SHEET ALMANACK,

FOR LOCALISATION.

Arranged by the Rev. CHARLES BULLOCK, B. D. formerly Rector of St. Nicholas, Worcester,

Editor of "The Fireside," etc.

Special attention is called to the Selection of Texts, which are adapted for Church Seasons. The Sunday Texts harmonise with those chosen for the week, and thus give a connected view of Scripture teaching. The selection has been again made by the Bishop of Killaloe.

The ALMANACK, LOCALISED, forms an admirable mode of Pastoral Communication for the New Year. It is readily purchased in hundreds of parishes, when sent round to the people; and when fixed to cottage and bedroom walls it answers the purpose of a tract and a text for every day in the year, never out of sight, and always conveying a "word in season.'

EARLY ORDERS.

It is most important that orders should be sent at once. The immense circulation last year rendered it very difficult to supply many of the copies before Christmas. Specimen Copy and Terms sent on application to Mr. C. MURRAY, Home Words Office, 7 Paternoster Sq., E.C.

THE "DAY OF DAYS" TABLET ALMANACK.

FOR THE STUDY, THE BOUDOIR, OR THE BEDROOM.

[The Monthly Calendar Tablets, if cut out and pierced at the top, can be hung up by a piece of ribbon for daily reference.] The Record says:-"It is the best invention of the kind we have seen. The price is only 1d."

A Specimen Copy of this unique TABLET ALMANACK will be sent on receipt of One Penny Stamp by the Manager, Home Words Office, 7 Paternoster Square, E. C.

THE NEW ANNUALS FOR 1884 ARE NOW READY.

*** No Books can possibly be so cheap as Magazine Annuals, and they are
especially adapted for HOME GIFTS and PARISH LIBRARIES.
