An APPEAL TO EVERY ONE.


Dear President General: I wonder IL you will al

ask the assistance Of the members in case which
has touched my sympathies very deeply. reIer
10 a young man who has broken down IN his study
for the ministry. Just the point when he was
ready to enter upon life which promised unusual
usefulness for he was remarkably gifted and
wholly Consecrated TO the work he had chosen
He had educated himself under circumstances Of
exceptional difficulty. doing even manual labor to
pay his expenses. The result was that he over
taxed himself almost fatally and for over a year
ne has been a helpless invalid. from paralysis. an
afflicton which he has borne with the most oeauu-
full patience and sweetness. He has now recovered
partially. but further progress is impossible with

ing an outlay Of several hundred dollars. If he
can get this treatment the doctors assure him OF
perfect health al the end of six months. II it Is
not applied at once the complaint viii become in

the money he possessed. and has relatives or
friends who can help him. he is face to face
