familiar faces look down upon us

made for soldiers orphans proves
the patriotism, as the care of the
blind shows the benevolence Of the
inhabitants of the land Of Pennsyl-
vanla, and as we see the work Of the
blind and the orphaned, we feel that
it is better to sustain schools than
alms-houses and prisons. The Sab-
bath School department is not over
looked. All that can be done to
send Scriptural truth through the
eye to the heart is suggested by
blackboard lesson and object teach
