ious pedagogy, blackboard work, and manual
work
In 1905 at the international Sunday school
convention it was decided that missionary
instruction be made part of the regular
supplementary work in every school unless
otherwise provided for" To this end great
quantity of literature is prepared for distri-
button among Sunday school students. A
special missionary library of seventy-seven
volumes has been prepared, dealing with mis-
Asia, and the Pacific islands. Lesson leaflets
are used, prepared and graded for each de-
partment in the Sunday school.
Ten different leaflets on Burma. ten on AS
SAM India, eight for China, eleven for Japan.
eight for Africa, ten for the Philippine Islands,
the American Baptist Missionary Union alone.
Sets of maps and charts prepared to go
with the lessons, and pictures illustrating the
country, people customs, religion and mis-
sion work latter the style of the Perry pic
lures used so largely in schools to illustrate
the art and history of the world) dis
tributed among the classes.
Enlareing the Worlds Work
THE fifth worlds Sunday school convention
was held in Rome last summer, where it
was decided that the convention should be
known hereafter as the Worlds Sunday School
Association, and also that This association
shall hold conventions and gather informa-
ton concerning the condition of Sunday
schools throughout the world, by correspond
ence, visitation, and other methods"
The International Sunday School Associa-
ton of INSTRUMENTATION Work stands for
the cooperation of all Christian churches;
for the international system of uniform les
sons, now used in all parts of the world by
more than twenty millions of people; for
T teaching; for the best in architecture, equip
, management, and Bible instruction; for
1ding to ALL no matter how old or young

THE American Sunday school is on the
march Great changes have taken place
recently in its organization and methods, and
more are to follow. The Sunday school is a
big institution. There are 64,S7I of them in
the United States, with $4,000 teachers and
$500 ,6s3 pupils. The statistics UP to the
present time have not been compiled with
reference to age; but the next record will be
valuable as a more accurate means of COM
parison than can be had now.
The Sunday school in its origin was in some
sense an attempt to solve the problem of child
labor. Robert Raikes, printer and editor of
Gloucester, England. who is usually called the
founder of the Sunday school, began his work
among the children employed in the pin fac
tories of Gloucester. Before this he attempted
to do something for the reformation of the
prisoners in Gloucester jail; but finally he came
to the conclusion which other men in other
branches of social reform have reached since
then, that the place to begin was with the
children themselves.
Since that time the Sunday school has
gained steadily in popularity and in numbers.
The recent changes. which reflect to certain
degree the new notions in regard to children,
are in the direction of new and better methods
of teaching

Normal Work for Teachers

MORE attention is being paid to the training
A'A and preparation of those who freely give
their services to teach classes in the Sunday
school Many of these volunteer workers have
no time to devote to special preparation for the
work and of course the international associa-
ton cannot demand preparation from volun-
teer workers. Meanwhile the work of train
ing the volunteer teachers is rapidly extend
ing. Normal classes have been started in
almost every State. In the last international
report 3,6s2 such classes and 2,o7s graduates
were reported. The training course inc
the study of the Bible as history of Gods
lation to man; the Bible school as an institt

Deafness Cannot Be cur.d

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube -
infiamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed. Deafness is the result.
and unless the inflammation can be TAX
en- out INT this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is no
thing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.
