If you will send us one new name with the money, and as many more as you can, and all the other good things you can think of, we will try to be satisfied. I I The C hristian H erald wishes all its readers a merry Clvistmas. As there will be no paper next week, with this number the C hris tian H erald completes its twelfth volume. We desired to take charge of the H erald long enough before the new year for the people to learn of the change and to form some idea al>out what it will be in the future. This is now our third numlier, and we feel sure that sufficient has been said to indicate to the brethren in a general way the future course of the H erald . As admitted by all, so far as we know, who understand the situa tion, its prospects are now brighter Than ever before. The paper has been wonderfully built up during the last year, and hence, comes into our hands in good shape for the coming work.

F. M. Rains.” The italics are ours. It occurs to us that this is another innovation. We first had the new invention, “'the pastor,” about which the Bible Bro. R. B. Neal, of Lewisville, knows nothing. Then we had the ^y7 has perance paper called the Worker, toral charge,” and now it turns out and the first number is on our ta that we have the “ pastorial care.” ble.
