George Muller's Orphanages.

In 1884, when Mr. Muller began his
work, there were no orphanages in
England. Between April, 1886, and
May 26, 1897, the orphan houses had
provided for 9,S44 children, and for
their maintenance and for the build
ings nearly million of money (f964, :
764) had been given. In April, 1886.
Mr.. Muller opened large rented house
in Wilson street, Bristol, for the re-
ception of thirty orphans; in Novem-
vember, 1886, he opened second house
in Wilson street for the reception of
36 orphans in 1887 third house for
80 orphans; and in 1S43 a fourth house
for 80 orphans. There were now 126
orphans and IL helpers or teachers and
matrons. In 1S49, as no houses were
to be had suitable for orphans, he open
ed the first orphan house on Ashley
Down, which he had built for 800 chill
dren; in November, 1857, he opened a
second orphan house, built and fitted
up for 400 children; in March, 1862, a
third house for 450 children; in 1868 a
fourth house for 450 orphans; and in
1869 a fifth house for 45O orphans.
Thus he had accommodation for 1850
orphans and 112 helpers. The term Of
residence at Ashley Down has aver
aged between eight and nine years, but
some girls admitted as infants have
remained under the sheltering roof over
seventeen years. Between April, 1885,
and May 26, 1897, 9,S44 orphans had
passed through or were then residing
in the Muller orphanages. Let US see
how the orphanage came into exist
ence which waste become SO gigantic
and conspicuous an illustration Of the
potency of the prayer of faith. George
Muller had long relied upon answers
to prayer for his financial needs before
the orphanage was started. He found
that the results of relying on prayer as
compared with the regular income
which he had given UP were encourag-
ing For every secured pound which
he had sacrificed he received two or
three by the way of prayer. From the
purely financial point of view he had
gained money, hands down, by trust
ing the Lord for his own needs. Hence,
before he made the experiment about
the orphanage, he had put his principle
to a preliminary test extending over
nearly six years. Again and again his
last penny had been spent, and he had
not had a sixpenny-piece in hand with
which to meet the anticipated visit of
the tax collector. But time after time
the money always turned up before it
was wanted. In the year 1885, for in
stance, f5, sent from a distance of
eighty miles, arrived just before the
collector called for the taxes. George
Muller was always able to meet every
call upon him. He never got into debt
