PENNY BOXES.

By William C. White

We mean boxes to hold the pennies that are brought as offerings to the Sabbath-school. Every secretary should be provided with some kind of a box to receive the little offerings. Small schools that are held in private houses can be easily provided for by taking a wooden collar box and cutting a hole in the top of sufficient size to receive a silver quarter. This should be set in some convenient place where each one coming in can quietly deposit his mite.

But every Sabbath-school held in a meeting-house should have something more substantial, and to meet this want we have prepared a neat brown tin safe to be fastened by screws upon the wall near the door so that each one entering can easily reach it. Large churches should have two of these, one being placed on each side of the entrance. Each box is furnished with a padlock which securely holds the cover.

These we can furnish to State Associations by freight or express for $10 per dozen. Single box by mail, post-paid, $1. W. C. W.
