This periodical is designed to be appropriate reading material for female servants.   That is, it is meant to instruct them how to be dutiful and to always obey the master and mistress of the house.

“The topic of servants’ pay was the forum for great dispute but when servants themselves got involved, the magazine dedicated to them said ‘Never change your place unless the Lord clearly shows you it will be for your soul’s good’” (Burnett, Useful Toil,  p.174).
