must be sustained, and its circulation
increased to 2,500. Will you help in
tiiis matter? Send the name, or
names, immediately, to the Editor
of the Lutheran Kirekenfreund, Rich
mond, Indiana.—Lutheran Observer.
The above practical iiaragraph
commends itself to every mind as
the way to kill or build up a proper.
Many ministers labor under the
erroneous idea that to circulate a
church paper in their charge, it is
necessary that the editor, or an
agent, visit his people.
Bnt we speak that we know, when
we say this is by no means essential.
Our experience, from the day we
entered upon the ministerial work to
the present, confirms our convic
tions that the pastor himself can do
the work more thoroughly and sue-;
cessfully than editor or agent. And
that yon may have some idea of
the truth of what we say, pardon us
for briefly giving yon a little of our
exjierience.
It was a firm conviction that bad
laid hold of our mintl when we
entered the ministry, that the cburcli
paper was a great auxiliary to our
success. We therefore set to work
to introduce the Lutheran Obserrcr,
tlrcn tlm organ of our Church, into
all the families of our charge not
receiving it. As a result, we more
than doubled its circulation in a
short time. We were pursuing the
same course in our second field of
labor till the war, and the warlike
attitude of the Obsercer against tint
South compiled ns to cease our
efforts to increase its circulation.
Then, not as a military, but. ecclesi
astical necessity, the Southern Ijtt-
theran was issued in Charleston, and
a call was made for patronage. In
its first number it was estimated
that if one-eighth of the actual mem-
•bership of the Lutheran Church in
the South would support that paper,
it would succeed.
W/B took the first number into the
pulpit and presented its claims, and
then, by a systematic visiting through
our entire charge, secured one-fourth
of our membership as snbsribers.
When the Evangelical Lutheran ap
peared, we introduced it into every
family in our Church actually able
to take##.
Such, bHfefly, is a history of our
work and success in this department
of church, enterprise. And what
we did, can be done by every
pastor who has the affection ami
Confidence of his people to an extent
tie justify him to remain with them.
It only requires a like courae to be
followed by like results.
And now that, at reducetl rates, we
have started out into a new year of
existence for the Lutheran Visitor,
will not its friends, not only among
the ministry, but uniong the laity also,
exert themselves to extend ita firm
hit ion, and thus both insure its per
manency and enlarge its sphere of
influence t
Get subscribers for six months or
twelve,, as you may find it beat, but
see that subscribers are secured.
Could we leave our fields of labor and
travel through the length und breadth
of the Church as editors, we know
that we could soon swell our list of
patrons to quite a resi>eetablc num
ber. But this, as pastors, we can
no more do than can any other
pastor, nor is it, as we have seen,
necessary. Only let the pastors and
friends of the pais?’ at large take
hold of the mutter with a seal com
mensurate to its importance, and the
work will go on. But do not wait;
now is the time to act. Get p-rsons
to sultserilte, so ns to Itegin with the
new volume. When you read this,
do not sigh, and say, “Well, some
time, when 1 eau make it convenient,
I will see what I can do," hut arise
and go to work, und you will relieve
us Of all anxiety, ami have {lie ap
probation of your own conscience.
Let erery subscriber determine to
do all lie or she can to send us one
netr subscriber, and we will have a
number that will put the success of
the piper beyond the ]>ossibility of
failure. And this is entirely practi
cable. Some may lie unable to send
ns one new name, bnt many others
can send us from one to ttcenty, by
suitable exertion.
As editors, we lalwr hard to give
you a muuir in every way worthy of
the Church. How fur we succeed is
not for ns to say. One thing we ret*
say, that according to the ability
God liatli given us, we are lalniriiig
to give the Church a paper of which
siie need not be ashamed, ami which
will be iui efficient co-worker with
pastors in building up Christ's king-
dom in their midst.
Will you not then gladly come to
onr help, ami render efficient service
in the tray of securing new jmtron

We had a notion to print this item
with capital letters, for it is aiming
ns Lutlmrairifehin unexampled evi
dence of tlm m-ll-deserved apprecia
tion of tlie lulMirs of a faithful minis
ter. Not that we have not many
devoted pastors, who are instant in
season and out of season, who having
devoted years and ex|s-mled tlmir
means in the preparation for tlm
ministry, are now hilsiring faithfully
afid self-denyingly for the welfare of
souls, bnt we lmve not many congre
gations who' love, ami who think
enough of their iniuistcr to induce
them to snppirt him liberally*, to say
nothing of making provisions for his
wife and children after he is gone.
Yet it is one of the trials of tlm
inister, to feel that his strength is
departing, that his days are hut few,
and that when 1m gts-s to his rest, he
must leav e the wife, w ho has endured,
toiled, prayed anti labored with him,
who cheered ami comforted him often
when his heart was heavy and Ins
spirit cast down, and the childn

ised to provide, nor does lie fail, but
how doe* He ilo it ? By raising tip
helpers! He is the husband of the
widow, the father of the fatherless ;
and He puts it iu the hearts of His
stewards to administer unto them.
But though we know and believe
this, wc know too that ministers
often suffer from anxiety for their
beloved. Tis natural; it is human ;
it is a feeling implanted within us,
and it is the duty of every Christian
man to provide—especially for those
of his own house. “If any provide not,
he hath denied the faith, und is worse
than au infidel.” 1 Tim. v: 8.
How cheering, lioxv relieving to
the minister to have the assurance
that his family will not be loft en
tirely dependent. What a load it
removes from his heart. It renews
bis strength, it inspires new life in
his ministrations; it enlarges his
affections tor those who show by
deed how’ well they love him.
Brother Hawkins’ p-ople have
done well. They already have the

of not having forgotten, nor neglected
him who labors among them in word

still greater reward in store for them.
