YOUTH'S INSTRUCTOR.

By Editor

WE have just issued the second number of this little sheet. Being from home on our Eastern tour, we were unable to publish a number for September. We now intend to issue it regularly each month, and, with the blessing of God, to make it instructive, interesting and a blessing to the youth. Such a paper is much needed. For want of such instruction as should be given in such a sheet, many of the children of Sabbath-keepers are very ignorant of the present truth plainly taught in the scriptures.
We are thankful for the interest taken in this little paper by a portion of our brethren. About 500 copies have been subscribed for. But we print 1,400 copies of each number, which leaves about 900 on hand. These are lying idle, and at the same time many of the children of Sabbath-keepers are deprived of the means of instruction.
Now we call upon you, dear readers, to do your duty in this matter. This little paper must be circulated. We intend to do our whole duty in making it what it should be, and we depend on you to aid us, by sending the names and address of those who wish to receive it.
It is very necessary to subscribe for THE INSTRUCTOR immediately, that the Sabbath school lessons may be learned as they are published. Brethren, let these remaining 900 copies be called for. If it is not convenient to send the money now, send it when convenient. If any of you feel that you are not able to pay, do not let this prevent you from sending for the INSTRUCTOR. It will be our greatest pleasure to send it free to the worthy poor. Our present list, if all should pay, will nearly half support the paper. We hope however, our list will be doubled before No. 3 shall be published.
We recommend to all who have not established Sabbath schools, to do so at once. Let some one in each place send for as many copies as are needed, and send the means when they can collect it. Brethren and sisters, do not let this opportunity of doing good pass, without improving it. Let this little messenger go to these dear, precious youth who may be benefited by it.
