In Formosa there are sixty-two
iowfl8 and villages, in each of which
here are one, or more than one, Chris
tian Church.
Greenland, with its population of
10 000 is almost entirely unrisrauzKi
by the Moravian, L itheran and Dan
ish missionaries.
Aa English Mission in India has
won a notable convert, a famous
scbalar, who has traveled even to
Ttit)et to preach Hindooism. He at
tributes hi3 conversion to the Bible
alone.
Munich, Bavaria, 100 years ago,
had but three known Protestants.
Ndw, the Prote.-tant community is so
numerous that four churches hardly
accommodate the worshippers.
When the missionaries first went to
Uganda, sixteen years ago, there was
no written language. Now 10,000 of the
population are able to read their lan
guage. Bishop Morley of (Tinneveilj) In
dia, when cn a confirmation tour little
more th3n a year ago, confirmed
among others, at Vageikulam, a woman
who, in one year afterwards, was the
means of the conversion - of twelve
people, including her husband, who
was also confirmed.
The A j mere District, Northwest

then drove 200 more to Edmonton. A
A trader accompanied him from the
far Njrth; a dog train of four dogs
carried their luggage and provisions.
The time consumed was from February
1st to March 27th.

and the Institute in Mexico City had
H3 students fifty boarding scholars
and ninety-three day scholars. The
printing press sent forth over ten mil
lion pages of evangelical literature
during the year.
There were in India, in 1891, about
tvo and a half millions of Christians.
01 these, two and a quarter millions
ere natives of India, and one quarter
Million were Europeans and Eurasianp.

How To Live.
The great problem is, after all, How
shall one grow in sympathy and ten
derness and generosity and considera
tion? How shall he fed on high
thoughts and noble aims? How shall
he be swift to discern and to avail him
self of those opportunities for useful
ness to others which are the best chan
nels of his own growth? How shall he
hold clear and close relation with the
divine one?
"Be one of the conquerors?" said
Balzac. ' Tne universe belongs to him
who wills and loves and prays; but he
must will, ho must love, he must pray ! '
In a word, he must possess wisdom,
force, and faith V Lillian Whiting.
Practical Christianity.
Some would have us think that fewer
eyes are looking upward in reverent
gratitude than in other days. But,
however this may be, I feel sure that
more eyes are looking around in lov
ing desire to help the needy than at
any previous epoch. And the happiest
thought of all is these eyes are young,
oos3rvant, and unwearied. To en
deavor along Christian lines to increase
the sum of human happiness seems to
me to be not only the greatest, but the
most evangelical thing in the world.
To begin to do is an end of contro
versy. The severed body of Christ
comes back to unity the moment it
ceases to preach and begins to prac
tice. Frances E. Willard.
A Governing God.
When things get beyond your con
trol, when you face an unknown fu
ture, and when trying conditions
confront you, remember that there
is a governing tfoa m israei, ana
that it is His to bring light out of dark
ness, j :y out of sorrow, and hope out
of sorrow, and hope out of desp-ur.
Be patient and acquiescent. L t the
Ruler of the Universe and the Lord of
the Individual manage tff urs in His
own way and at H -sown time Neither
grow weary nor become too anticipa
tive. R A upon a covenant keeping
God your cares, taking His dispensa
tions as they come, and multiplying
sorrow neither by distrust nor by fore
boding. God unravels the future day
by day, hour by hour, and moment by
moment, accompanying the distribu
tion with His supporting and sanctify
ing grace. The Presbyterian.
Kept.
Walking in slippery, doubtful, per
plexing places with blind eyes and
faltering feet, how much we need a wise
and watchful keeper.
Myself I cannot save,
Myself I cannot keep,
But strength in Thee I surely have,
Whose eyelids never sleep."
God's promises to keep are emphatic
and unconditional to His own people
who put themselves without reserve
into His care. "Who is he that will
harm you, if ye be followers of that
which is good?" We have no promise
that we shall be kept if we voluntarily
place ourselves in the way of tempta
tion or danger.
Accidents happen (to use human
modes of speech) to the children of
Gxl as well as to those who do not
love and trust Him. They suffer pain ;
they fail and break their bones; they
contract disease, and thieves despoil
them of their property. How, then,
are they ,4kept?" Certainly not from
the outward manifestation of the evil,
yet in a higher sense they are truly
kept by the power of God; in the midst
of all, from any real hurt or harm. It
would be useless to attempt an expla
nation of such experience to any who
does not know it for themselves.
Such a Gjspel is "foolishess" to them.
But to these who are in the secret it is
"both the power of Gjd and the wis
dom of God:" David, divinely inspired,
knew its meaning when he wrote,
"Because thou hast made the
Most High thy habitation, there shall
no evil befall thee, neither shall any
plague come nigh thy dwelling." God
reveals Himself as the keeper of His
people under many suggestive and
beautiful figures : as a home, a sanctu
a-y, the keeper of a choice "garden, a
fortress, a protector stronger than
hills or mountains. Believe, "He
that keepeth Israel shall neither slum
ber nor sleep;" "The Lord shall pre
serve thy going out and thy coming in
from this time forth, and e veil for ev
ermore.
Young lady, the Lord would think
more of you if you would help mother
more with the house keeping, and give
less time to reading trashy novels or
running around over the community
with other idle girls, who ought to be
helping ther mothers. Some fellow
J will want you for a wife by the time
I you can fit yourself to be one.
