CHAPTER >fINE ' riitST MISlsIONART REPORTS JThe first two reports were made up to February 1st the next lou , to June 24th. but, Since the year' 1820, our balance sheet was noi made, up until the Slst of December. The amounts for these years were as follows: 1814, amount of income to February 1st, £6,8*0.2.5. 1815, amount of Income to February 1st., £9,55414.4%. ► 1816, amount of Income to June 24th., £ 12,565.Q.9%. 1817, amount ot tycomi 24th.. £ 19,933.7.T»4V' 1818, amount of ifcorac 24th., £20,599.17.7^. 1819, amount of income to June 2«th., £25,087.9.8. ' 1820, amount of income to December 31st £37,211.15.9. . ' The number of our missionaries at the conference ol?1821 was one hundred and thirty-two; and our missionary membership, 28,699. The early missionary reports contain a mass of interesting matter, at which we need not bc surprised, when we know that they are the production of, the giai t mind of Richard Watson, a man who seemed to scan the world at a glance, and jthdroughly to. understand its state and its wants; who e talcirt. thc tact, and thc necessities of every missionary in ihe Held; whose pulpifcoratory, unsurpassed in a century, "was always employed on behalf of mis- ; whose pen emies to silence; whose theologica productions will continue to benefit mankind to tht latest'period of time; greater effect toward the eman-l cipation of slaves in the West| steward, to the Indies, than any other man. in!tiie missionaries.

The circular bears the signature of "Charles Atmore, Chairman." The substance of this circular engaged the attention of the brethren in Newfoundland for -some years before they could agree: as to the scale of allowance, they would request the committee to make. for their district. Brother John Walsh took an active part in this matter. He carefully ascertained the expenses of e&ch circuit in the district; calculated what clothes each brother would quire; and, making allowances for miscellaneous and incidental expenses, he drew up a scale of a - and presented It at the | district of 1822, -which, being sanctioned by the missionary com-j mittee, formed the scale of allow- •hich, with some trifling a -I teration, has been observed to present Time. Beside1 the above circular, the {"secretaries were accustomed, a few days after the close of conference-, to send'J'an annual circular" to each missionary, giving, •lew ot the proceed- j ings of the conference, the state i of the connection, the state of the different funds, with instructions! to the missionaries on partJculai topics, and other inormation oil great value and importance to the missionaries at that time, es] neither .the "Wesleyan" nor'the "Watchman" then existed; and! particularly were these circulars] valued in the distant, stations of] til's mission, where, for six months of the year, we never saw a newspaper or received a letter. The substance of these jpirculars was, in the year 1832, pift in the form of a small volume, ailed "An Appendix to the General Instruc-i lions of the Missionary Committee,] for the private use of the Missionaries." From thjs little volume we shall matte orfe extract because it will always be of import-] ance to the'right working of our; itinerancy. The heading is, "Solitary Stations": "Several of the. districts, and| especially'those in British North; America and Newfoundland, are divided almost entirely in solitary stations, in consequence of which j many circuits are unavoidably in- j trusted to the superintendence oil young men, witK little experience in.'the discipline of Methodism, to the great detriment of the so-1 cieties, and to the hinderance of the work of God.

Sole Agents x Good food in sufficient quantities, providing the diet is well balanced, is all most people need to keep tisttn m good health; but this is not always possible. "Some hare meat and cannot eat, and some can't cat that want it" as the poet says. Again, many' are unable at all seasons to obtain a balanced diet, and unless the appetite is good, no diet is acceptable or likely to be indulged in to the extent that is necessary to build strength, and particularly reserve strength. That is why doctors down through the age* hare suggested a good tonic when the appetite fails. How often have you beard the doctor say "AH that you need is a good tome"? That may be all you need—but that's a lot!

Sole Agents x Good food in sufficient quantities, providing the diet is well balanced, is all most people need to keep tisttn m good health; but this is not always possible.
