We teach the poor exclusively : have a claim on
those who value education. Our foundress, Nano
Nagle, being the first in 1769 to dare to educate
by means of her schools, the long-neglected Irish
child. In our Dublin Convent the first Srs. of
Mercy were formed to Religious life. Many of our
immediate pupils are valued members of Religious
Houses in the states as well as in the old country.
By aiding us you enable us to fit our poor ones to
be useful to you and a credit to Faith and Country
in our midst where the future of so many of them
lies:
In return for your alms, you rank among our
Benefactors, for whose well-being special daily
prayers are offered and two monthly Communions
while the Convent lasts. The Holy Sacrifice every
day next May and June, and deceased relatives in¬
cluded. Do not refuse please. I have had only
two replies to nearly 400 appeals sent out since
Autumn last.
Excuse and believe me to remain,
Sir,
faithfully yours,
Sr. M. Ignatius O'Connell.

A MODERN COLOSSUS,
The Colossus of Rhodes must take a back seat.
Bartholdi's Statue of "Liberty Enlightening the
World" is a revelation. New York is to be envied.
And in some smaller degree we may be envied:
We have just been presented with a superb picture.
26x36, by the Travelers Ins. Co., of Hartford, Conn.
giving a capital representation of the majestic im¬
age.
The Leavenworth (Kansas) Visitor has come un¬
der the individual control of Mr. Johnson. It is
the recognized organ of Catholicity in Kansas, also
of the Immigration Society. We see by its late is-
sue a list of what is represented to be very desira¬
ble farms, cheap, and on easy terms. Here is where
the surplus population of our cities should settle.
The want of sufficient accommodation for their
increased business has compelled
The Singer Sewing Ma¬
chine Co.
to move to the spacious store and ware-rooms, 591
Fulton st., near Flatbush av.
Why is the "SINGER" so much sought
after ? Answer.— THIRTY-FIVE YEARS'
TRIAL before an enlightened public has domon¬
strated its worth. Hence the demand !
