GEORGE MULLER AND HIS WORK.
THIS English "exponent of faith and prayer," whose fame has for years been international, is now about to bring his visit to this country to a close. Among other facts of his wonderful experience recently embodied in a sermon preached in New York, were the following: " For fifty years and six months I have obtained through the Lord all the temporal necessaries for myself and my family, without having been obliged to ask any human being for assistance. I have been able to found 107 schools, the annual cost of maintaining which is $100,000. In these schools, by God's help, 9,500 pupils have been converted. I have been able, through God, to distribute 600,000 copies of the Bible in all parts of the world. In the last forty years I have sent 73,000,000 books to all parts of the globe to believers and to unbelievers. God has enabled me to build five orphan asylums, which are so large that they contain in all about 500 rooms. These cost $600,000, but I had $25,000 more than I needed. We accommodate in these 2,050 children, and have 108 assistants. The annual expense of running these asylums is $220,-000. All my assistants I get through God's instrumentality. 140 missionaries have been aided and sent forth to work, and 5,947 orphans have been sent out to occupy honest if not honorable positions in society. My unfailing remedy for all misfortunes has been prayer and faith. I beseech you, therefore, not to be discouraged, but to continue your work, whatever it may be, believing implicitly that your prayers will be granted if you have fulfilled the necessary conditions."
