A HOPEFUL OUTLOOK.

Some parts of the American Mission ary Association, especially as that work concerns the education and training of the colored people of the South, will make the subject for the missionary meeting at the Congregational church, Sunday evening, February 3. Of the magnificent work accomplished by this Christian organizati on a worker at Flor ence, Ala, we'll says: "The American Missionary Association has been doing the work of the Good Sam artan all these years. Slavery left the colored mGn, who had been beaten and robbed for 200 years, weak and sick and sore. The American Missionary Association came and took this man up and said, Here is man whom God has given us to save. He is our brother and here is our opportunity So they gathered physicians from your homes in New England all over the North to go and deal with that man and give him doses that he might be healed. They sent word back to the North that the man had disease that had been eating into his system for 250 years, but that the case was hopeful one." Just how much hope there is in the case the speak CTS will try to show at this Sunday evening missionary meeting, February 3. The hour for the meeting is 7.30, and most hearty invitation is given to all interested in this cause.
