THE AUXILIARY LEAGUE。
1。Of persons who； without necessarily endorsing or approving of every single method used by thee Salvation Army； are sufficiently in sympathy with its great work of reclaiming drunkards； rescuing the fallenin a word； saving the lostas to give it their PRAYERS； INFLUENCE； AND MONEY。
2。Of persons who； although seeing eye to eye with the Army； yet are unable to join it； owing to being actively engaged in the work of their own denominations； or by reason of bad health or other infirmities； which forbid their taking any active part in Christian work。 Persons are enrolled either as Subscribing or Collecting Auxiliaries。
The League comprises persons of influence and position； members of nearly all denominations； and many ministers。
PAMPHLETS。Auxiliaries will always be supplied gratis with copies of our Annual Report and Balance Sheet and other pamphlets for distribution on application to Headquarters。 Some of our Auxiliaries have materially helped us in this way by distributing our literature at the seaside and elsewhere； and by making arrangements for the regular supply of waiting rooms； hydropathics； and hotels； thus helping to dispel the prejudice under which many persons unacquainted with the Army are found to labour。
〃All The World〃 posted free regularly each month to Auxiliaries。

THE SALVATION ARMY： A SKETCH。
BY AN OFFICER OF SEVENTEEN YEARS' STANDING。 What is the Salvation Army？
It is an Organisation existing to effect a radical revolution in the spiritual condition of the enormous majority of the people of all lands。 Its aim is to produce a change not only in the opinions； feelings； and principles of these vast populations； but to alter the whole course of their lives； so that instead of spending their time in frivolity and pleasure…seeking； if not in the grossest forms of vice； they shall spend it in the service of their generation and in the worship of God。 So far it has mainly operated in professedly Christian countries； where the overwhelming majority of the people have ceased； publicly； at any rate； to worship Jesus Christ； or to submit themselves in any way to His authority。 To what extent has the Army succeeded？
Its flag is now flying in 34 countries or colonies； where under the leadership of nearly 10；000 men and women； whose lives are entirely given up to the work； it is holding some 49；800 religious meetings every week； attended by millions of persons； who ten years ago would have laughed at the idea of praying。
And these operations are but the means for further extension； as will be seen； especially when it is remembered that the Army has its 27 weekly newspapers； of which no less than 31；000；000 copies are sold in the streets； public houses； and popular resorts of the godless majority。 From its； ranks it is therefore certain that an eve
