THE
CARPENTER ORGANS.
On page (192) will be found a rich and beautiful illustration of one of the world-famous Carpenter Organs. The secret of success in my business lies in personal supervision of the details of that business. The superlative excellence of the Carpenter Action is due to the vigilant personal oversight of the inventor. The sweetness and evenness of tone, combined with the durable and massive elegance of external finish in these organs, recommend then to all lovers of music. At the Worcester works (the largest Action Manufactory in the world) more than 100 different styles are made, ranging in price from $20 to $2,000. The moral and religious influence of a sweet-toned organ in a family is incalculable. The subdued harmonies and mellow persuasiveness of organ-music tranquilize and elevate the whole nature.
When through storied windows bright Falls the dim religious light, Enhuing all the air with Iris sweet, Then with mellow thunder deep Let the ocean-throated organ speak; Let its rolling billows sweep Through our souls with might, with might! ’Tis not the voice of puny man That issues from these Pipes of Pan, Nor yet some yearning spirit of the air— Rather we seem to hear from out the skies, Now low, now loud, through opened gates of Paradise, The deep-toned viol, and the golden trumpet’s blare, And far hosannas from the innumerable caravan!

N.Y. WITNESS.
☞ There will be many important events occurring during the coming year that you will not know about unless you take the Witness. Do you know now, for instance, that a sober and Christian young man, a private soldier of the U.S. Army, has been thrown into prison and subjected to great privations and indignities by his superior officers—treated worse than the miserable wretch Guiteau—for writing a letter to the Witness—a letter which is of great importance to all young men and all parents? There are many things published in the Witness that other papers dare not print, for fear of offending some rich and powerful corporation, and so losing their patronage.
The price of the WITNESS is $1.50 a year, post-paid; club price, five for $6.00. Sample copy sent free.
Ministers, Missionaries, Evangelists of all Denominations, and Teachers can have the WITNESS for One Dollar a year.

“LIBRARY ORGAN.” Containing the Celebrated Carpenter Organ Action. Something Entirely New! The Æsthetic Taste Gratified! This is only one of one hundred different styles of organs.
This effective and beautiful design in the modern Queen Anne Style is intended to meet the demands of those desiring an instrument of special elegance, and in harmony with the fittings and furnishings of the Study or Library Room, combining as it does, in a substantial and tasteful manner, the Organ, the Library cases, and the cabinet for bric-a-brac and articles of virtu.
It is well adapted to find favor in homes of culture and refinement, and will be championed by the music lover and connoisseur.
The composition is one of well balanced proportions, chaste subordination of ornamentation, and of artistic arrangement in constructive details, imparting to the design a rich simplicity and substantial worth.
This beautiful organ contains the Celebrated Carpenter Organ Action. The action is to an Organ what the works are to a watch. The merits of the Carpenter Organ were fully proved on page 158 of the Youth’s Companion of April 20, to which special attention is directed.
A beautiful 100-page Catalogue, the finest of its kind ever published, is now ready and will be sent free to all applying for it.
Nearly all reliable dealers sell the Carpenter Organs, but if any do not have them to show you, write to us for a Catalogue and information where you can see them. Do not buy any Organ until you have examined “The Carpenter.” In writing for a Catalogue always state that you saw this advertisement in the American Missionary Magazine.

THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION.
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. It has also a mission in Africa.

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 ministers here and missionaries to Africa—a pressing want.
Before sending boxes, always correspond with the nearest A. M. A. office as directed on second page cover.
THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY.
We are anxious to put the American Missionary on a paying basis. We intend to make it worth its price, and we ask our patrons to aid us:
1. More of our readers can take pains to send us either the moderate subscription price (50 cents), or $1.00, naming a friend to whom we may send a second copy.
2. A special friend in each church can secure subscribers at club-rates (12 copies for $5 or 25 copies for $10).
3. Business men can benefit themselves by advertising in a periodical that has a circulation of 20,000 copies monthly and that goes to many of the best men and families in the land. Will not our friends aid us to make this plan a success?
We nevertheless renew the offer hitherto made, that the Missionary will be sent gratuitously, if desired, to the Missionaries of the Association; to Life Members; to all Clergymen who take up collections for the Association; to Superintendents of Sabbath-schools; to College Libraries; to Theological Seminaries; to Societies of Inquiry on Missions; and to every donor who does not prefer to take it as a subscriber, and contributes in a year not less than five dollars.
Subscriptions and advertisements should be sent to H. W. Hubbard, Treasurer, 56 Reade street, New York, N.Y.
