The Mot& of admission to the House is twofold,
Ist. By election of the subscribers. Boys thus admitted
are received free, boarded, clothed, educated) and taught till
they are 11 years of age.
With the view I o secure the elettion of the thOSt deserving
cases, the Commitle harp Milli the first discouraged canvas-
sing, and they du not print any addresses of the subscribers.
The voting paptts Contain a description of each case, as care-
ful y investigated by the Committee, and with this Informa-
tion the subscribers are able to judge for themselves as tli
those most eligible for free admiecien„
This Home was opened in Ape!, 184. It Was designed to
take is the little onre Whose charact r and circumstances
disqualify the:q ftir the Orphan Asylums, and whose tender
age prtolndes their admission to the Rtfuges. Such are those
who, from neglect, are already on the road to ruin. Such ate
those who have been deserted by their nstural pretectors and
left to beecome idle wanderers: Such are those Whose
parents may have at one time or other received parish irglief,
and who are now friendless orphans. Such are those*hose
parents are breakers of the la*, tit' !tit, in ptistin, and who
train their childtcn hi the style path. Such are those whose
evil associapOnt have hfready had their painful effect, and
must lead theta to a life of crime and misery.
There are now 50 little inmates from about four years of
age to 10. There is room for nearly 102, and the Committee
would joyfully see the Home filled at once ; they only Wait
for the necessary subscriptions.
The Committee feel constrainedW
to NW for those who
cannot thus plead for themselves k and, referring to the cir-
cumstances of some who have been already admitted, they
ask—ls it right to Make a widow and her family paupers for
life because One of them (the naughty boy of the family) runs
wild in the streets and is beyond her control ? Is it kind to
tell her, because she has so large a family, that you will not
help her to put one of them into a Home. but that they must
ail go into "the house ?" Is it doing the best we can for the
Mlle destitute orphan to send him to the workhouse. Is it
doing to others as we would they should do unto us that Wheat
these little ones have unnatural parents who ttitil them iitto
the streets, or force them by ill-etreatment to "run away,"
none of us shou'd be found to care for them, to speak a kindly
word to thetn, to befriend them, to house and clothe them ?
Shall we leave them still on the doorstep, passing by on the
other side, or else exclaiming "Am I
my brother's
keeper ?"

W
e necessity for an Institution for these little ones is evi-
dent from the police statistics, which show that in London
alone, in one year, no fewer than 311 boys under 10 years of
age, have been apprehended for various offences, 79 of whom
were convicted and punished, while the bulk, 232 were dis-
charged by the magistrates with a rebuke, as being too
young to punish, though not too young to learn the beginnings
of crime. On the other hand, there are numbers who, but
for the timely help afforded by such an Institution, must
otherwise become paupers, and losing all ideas of self-reli-
ance and self-help be permanent burdens to the State.
fhe Home for Little Boys has, therefore, been established
to rescue the little ones, to save them from the prison on the
one hand, and the workhouse on the other, and to endeavour
to make them useful members of society.

The daily routine of the Ins:itution- presents all the fea-
tures of a home, a school, and a workshop. The little ones
are cared tor as children; they have their regular meals,
their suitable clothing, their hours of play and amusement,
and their singing class. They are treated as scholars ; every
morning is devoted to seho.:l work—reading, and writing,
and ciphering, and Scriptural instruction, with occasional
lessons in oljeots and other subjects. But they are also
trained to work. As they must all, and that at a very early
period in lite, earn their living by the sweat of their brow,
they are here at once taught habits of industry. So the after-
noons are occupied with various industrial occupations—
making brown paper bags for bankers, and white taper bags
for tradesmi-n, and door mats and servants' kneelers for any
who will buy them; picking the coil for the mats, mending
the c othes, drc. Some assist tile master in the garden,
digging, planting, watering, weeding, and so forth. By
degrees they are being made useful in the house, scrubbing
and sweeping, while the elder ones (lean all the boots,
knives, ote. In this way it is sought to fit them for an active
working life.
2d. By payment of ss. a week, made quarterly in advance.
All children must be under 10 years of age at the time of
admission. Those received on payment are admitted at any
time as soon as approved by the Committee,
Elections of children to be admitted free will take place as
frequently as the increase in the annual subscriptions will
admit, till the Home is full ; they will then be held periodi-
cally
Forms of application for the admission of children may be
had at the Home, slid of the Honorary Secretary,

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new descrip-
tion of ARTIFICIAL TEE T xed without springs, wires,
or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth
as not to be distinguished fro n the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This
method does not require the extraction of roots, or any pain-
ful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-
tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful
in mastication'
