Broad Flash of Light. A broad flash of light was thrown on the dark places of the world at the morning session of the Laymen's Missionary con- vention held in the First Methodist church. Five men, who have spent many years in India, Korea, Turkey, Africa and China came successively to the platform. In glowing words they painted conditions from the optimistic standpoint of Christianity, at the same time outlining the grand op- portunities now opened and awaiting selzure by the proper means. These mis- slonarles only hinted at heroisms In- cidental to the work of themselves and their devoted colleagues; but they pictured at length the persistent faithfulness, the un- selfish devotion of their humble helpers; and they gave thrilling glimpses of the glorlous spirit of sacrifice exhibited in scores of cases. Storles of danger, suffering, death— these were told In impressive fashion. And over against them were plctured the brighter aspects of missionary lite and the reasons for the hopefulness Inspiring high endeayor. The underlying spirit of the gathering was typified when Rev. Rockwell Clancey, North India missionary, who was to pre- side, knelt down behind the reading desk and silently prayed before assuming the {duties entrusted to him. Throughout the morning, too, he called for moments of silent prayer for the countries spoken of by the men making the addresses. Ap- plause was forbidden, to save every mo- ment of time, but there were violations of the rule several times when the speakers touched the hearts of thelr hearers. Bible Korean Public Text Book. One of the most notable of these in- stances came when Rev. George Heber Jones told how the Holy Bible has been made a text book in the public schools of Korea. Rev. J. Aberly, from the South India fleld, told the story of the beginning of mission work In India and traced its de- cline in the eighteenth century because of lack of support from home. Then he re- counted the difficulty of starting the work over again and how It took most of the years of the nineteenth century to win a million converts to Christianity in Indfa. “Indla 15 & land of contrasts,” said the speaker. *“We have twenty languages, each spoken by a million people, -and we have 17 different languages and dialects to deal with in the field. They still reap thelr grain with a sickle, and haul with ox carts, although we also have the automobile. In India we have the proud Brahmin, who was a philosopher when our forefathers were savages; and below him we have various classes, down to the most lgnorant and stupid people in the world." He told of the recent awakening of the Asiatics and thelr declaration of the equality of men, predicting that when the | Asiatics get together on such a plattorm |the white men will have great difficulty in maintaining his superfority in many things. “As & matter of political expedi- ency, therefore, it should be our greatest ambition to Christianize those nations. As their declaration is & result of the leaven of Christianity, we must look to our col- leges In their midst to’traln them and to our hospitals to win their hearts. Rev. George Heber Jones sald India would make thirty Koreas in extent and | in population. “‘Probably In the next twenty | years,” he sald, “Korea will become & | Christian nation, in name, at least.” Glad Tidings from Korea. The Koreans are open to religlous ap- proach and respond readily to religious | teaching. When the first service of the Lord's supper was held in Korea there were | seven people present. Now there are 230,000 bellovers In Christ. Weo have averaged | one convert an hour for every hour put in the work for several years; we have established two churches & week, and last year one church a day was formed; now the outlook 1s simply marvelous. We should easily reach 1,000,000 Korean aduits and make converts of them, through native workers, in 1910, There {s such an enthus- tasm in Korea for the gospel of Jesus Christ that thers is no other enthusiasm In the world to compars with ft except the American enthusiasm for base ball. The ticket of admission for the new con- vert to the church in Korea is another #oul brought to the living fount. The na- tive converts ralsed last year out of their poverty $135,000 for the support of their churches. They will mortgage (heir own homes, and have done it repeatedly! to clear thelr churches of debt.” He told of the Introduction of modern educational methods by the missionaries, working with the native authorities. “Ana out of 2,000 schools in the kingdom 1,400 are Christian schools, maintalned by the Christian church. Tells of Adana Massacre. John B, Merrill told the story of ad- vancement in Turkey, and in between he ve realistic detalls of the massacres at Adana. He sald the direct intervention of God himself seemed to have been the means of saving thousands of Christian lives. He traced the rise of the young Turkey party, the granting of a constitu- tion and gloried In the freedom that has now come to the land. ““The great opportunity now open in TUr- key,” sald Mr. Merrill, “ia in the hands of the Amerioan laymen. They can take it by prayer, advocacy and cash. There Is a new spirit everywhere. The Adana massa- ore was the turning point. There are now 50,000 Protestant Christians in Turkey, who gave $171,000 last year for church work; and they do not lay down on us.” Message from Africa. The message from Africa was borne by Rev. A, F. Hensey, and he was a most eloquent and convincing messenger. He opened by the statement there are 15,000,000 people in Africa who have never been in touch with the gospel of Jesus Christ, and then showed the audience some African money, twists of brass wire resembling hairpins. *“The first plece of this money he gets is put aside fos the work of God by the con- vert, and they support many missions out of their pittance of 3 cents a day wages. The first tenth of all thelr possessions goes to God.” The African story was {llustrated by many striking word pictures of surpassing consecration exhibited by native converts, who have themselves become missionaries, Dr. M. D. Eubank, a medical mission- ary of long service In China, gave the dele- gates many a thrill and brought plentiful smiles by his earnestness, his wit and his quaint philosophy, all shot through with the solidest kind of common sense. Indeed, the work of Dr. Eubank and his helpers 1s all based on that winning element. “For years China was a seemingly hope- less fleld,” sald Dr. Eubank, and then he outlined the progress made by periods of years, until today there are 9,000 Christian rs scattered all over China. By means of Christian schools, hospitals, dl pensarles, preaching, prayer and practic work a leaven of education and knowl- edge has been set at work that is having a tremendous influence on the lite of the nation. Christian homes are belng estab- lished by native converts, and a spirit of omulation to learn, to know, to go ahead, is abroad among the Chinese people wher- ever the missonaries have been abls to be- gin thelr work. “Today we have 65,000 Chinese boys and girls In our schools,” sald Dr. Eubank, “and there is a door standing wide open, offering wondertul opportunity. The question is: ‘Will you enter that door? " Our Relation to the Problem. Rev. C. C. Rollit of Minnesota, depart- mental secretary of the Episcopal church, discussed “Our Relation to the Problem.' He traced the usefulness of the commissary department of an army, showing the soldlers in ancient or modern times would not amount to anything if deprjvéd of their commissary supplies. Then he applied the lesson. “We cannot all be missionarl said Dr. Rollit,"and only a certaln few are fitted to be missionaries, but in another way we can all be missionaries. We have heard the men from the firing line, who have been bearing the brunt of the battle. Now, what's our responsibility? We must be faithful, energetic members of the com- missary’ department. In that way we can share the responsibility, and It we do, we will 8180 share in the blessing. FIGURES TO MEASURE NATIONS Chart Used by Dr. Eubank Tells a Great Story. Measurement of nations by figures of men, presented on a chart at the First Methodist church, made some folks open thelr eyes when Dr. M. D. Eubank of China pointed out Its significance. The doctor has a delightful hint of a southern burr on his tongue, and he had the whole roomful smiling continually as he characterized the figures representing each nation on the chart. Most of the natlons appear very small, “mere boys” as the doctor put it. He aliuded to Uncle Sam as the “half-grown boy with the plug hat on, who thinks he 1s some pumpkins,” and worked along up to Russia, which is shown as a bulky, be- whiskered, brigand looking glant. But over at the end is a glant—China. The figure standing for the Celestial empire simply dwarfs all the rest, as a thing alone in size. Mr. Chinaman has a smirk on his mug as large as most of the other nations. His plgtall is bigger than several shoe- string congressional districts in the United States, and his vellow button hat would smother several of the figures on the chart with him. The chart was effective In impressing those who gazed at it with some of the difficulties missionaries meet in trying to cover a whole nation with a small force and a susplolously thin commissary de- partment behind them. THAT INSPIRE rs Bearing Slogans of Mission Hang In the Church. Scattered about the front of the gallery of the First Methodist church, where the laymen's missionary delegates are meeting, are banners bearing striking mottoes. Some of them are: “Life {s most worth living to him whose work {s most worth while." “A man may give without loving, but he cannot love without giving." “Ye that are men, now serve Him." “Not how much of my money will I glve to God, but how much of God's money will I keep for myself." These are but a few, still they are typlcal of the sentiment governing and Inspiring the men in attendance. They are ready to give more and more as they catch the tremendous significance of the work thelr money is to be used in.

We are beginning to realize the scdpe of ‘he commercial automoblle, It is opening W the country. Suburban real estate is seing developed in & marvelous manner. farms in the vieinlty of citles Wwhich brought from $30 to $40 an acre a few years ago are now divided into villa plots and bring twenty-five times their original value. The automobile is populating the mountain tops; it s taking travelers to every attractive nature spot. It is making roadhouses of summer resrorts. The farmer, through his famillarity with the gasoline engine, has been quick to see the possibilities of the automobile. He. ls putting it to untold uses. If & threshing machine breaks down, the hands are de- layed but & few hours while the broken part is whisked thirty miles to a repair shop. City concerns which have extensive territory to cover are rapldly adopting the automobile. Horses are rendered worse than useless by blizzards and heavy slush, but the automobile delivery trucks have demonstrated that they are capable of weathering conditions which no horse driver would attempt to master. The auto- mobile relleves the horse of the misery of slippery, hard pavements, the drudgery of hot streets and the cruelty of drivers. The motor ambulance brings first aid to the injured. A complete emergency fire de- partment—ladders, chemicals and hose— comes to your asgistance swiftly and surely aboard a single, self-propelled con- veyance. Public safety has been greatly increased at the time of riot or mob by the almost instant transportation of large numbers of police to the scene of trouble. The motoreycle will probably solve the question of policing our cities. This was how the auromovile aided & business. In the same storm perlod at Worcester, an automobile coal truck helped keep people from suffering discomfort by The road conditions were miserable—snow, slush, ice. The truck, with its six-ton load, kept going con- stantly. An officlal of the coal company sald: “If the work could have been done by horses it would have taken five double teams to displace the automoblle.” When the heat wave was at its height last sum- mer a hot place was Washington, D. C. A wholesale paper company found it neces- sary to deliver goods to suburbs of the capital, Georgetown, Tenallytown and Chevy Chase. Under cool weather condi- tions, with a first-class horse, that would have been a day's work. The car made the trip, all deliveries, and was back at the store in less than three hours. As for the financial end—and that is the part the business man s most Interested in—the president of the paper company declares that the car is saving him §76 a month, A laundry man of Orange, N.

A Bulgarian family of immigrants and a two-pound case of aged limburger cheese caused a near panic among the first-class passengers and stopped the Ploneer limited train at Red Wing, Minn. A family of sixteen, father mother and fourteen children, ranging in age from an infant to & boy 17, was seated among other passengers in the single day coach at- tached to the train. After a good night's sleep the children were awakened when the Red Wing harp orchestra members nolsily boarded the train at Kellogg. The children at once began crying for some- thing to eat. The kindly father, in an ef- fort to relieve the pangs of hunger, pulled out his jackknife and cut into the che This was spread liberally on brown bread and passed out to the children. The odor of the cheese awakened the men and one by one they took refuge in the vestibule. The women breathed through their muffs and, first taking it as a joke on the male passengers, chuckled behind their furs; but it soon became serious and they, too, fled to the smoking compartment. In Red Wing the windows and doors of | the car were thrown wide open in the hope ot relleving the situation and a delay of five minutes was the result. The conductor stated it was the worst experience he had ever had with a family of immigrants. It was the only thing they had for breakfast and he could not deprive them of their first meal of the day.—St. Paul Dispatch, VIOLET GLASSES AID THE EYES Remarkable Claim Ma. for Win- dow Glass Tinted by th A discovery of great value to those whose sight has been impaired by work- ing under artificial light has been made in Philadelphia. It was learned that ame- thyst-tinted lenses mada from window pane glass taken from houses In Walnut street would cure blindness caused by working on bright metals and under artificial light. This glass s simply ordinary window panes that have been in use for more than seventy-five years. In that times it has been turned an amethyst tint by the direct rays of the sun. Philadelphia eye specialists are optimis- tic in their contentions for the glass, which is termed by the oculists and opticlans the Philadelphla glass. Some of the most widely known physicians in the city are using it In thelr dally practice, and say that it has proved wonderfully effec- tive, and that the eye disorders that it will relieve and cure are many. Although the first announcement of the good re- sults from the use of this glass was made only about six months ago, it has recelved widespread attention, and Philadelphia physicians who were among the first to give it a trying out have recelved letters from other doctors In all parts of the globe asking for samples of the glass with which to experiment. Houses in Walnut street that were erected In the early part of the last cen- tury are being examined closely by enter- prising opticlans. Many & stald Philidel phia family who have lived In the same house for several generations have besd l surprised recently by offers to put new close examination it was learned the win- glass In their windows fres of cost. Upon dow panes that the seemingly charitable persons wanted to replace had the precious amethyst tint. Among the Philadelphia oculists that have been working with the amethyst tinted lenses is Dr. L. Webster Fox, pro- fessor of ophthalmology in the Medico- Chirurgical college, and an oculist of wide repute. Dr. Fox has been able to cure many cases of temporary loss of sight and badly strained eyes when the amethyst tint was ocorporated with correcting lenses. He has been particularly successful in the case of printers, typewriters, students, and newspape men, all of whom are required to apply the eyes closely under artificial fl- lumination. After wearing the violet glass, the patient, as a rule, refuses to go back to the colorless glass, wearing the other indetinitely.

Philadelphian Recovers Lost Con- sclence and Repents of His Robbertes, The spectacle of a millionaire telling his hearers that he made his millions by rob- bing the people, that all monopolists do, but that he had begun to recover his con- sclence and was going to devote his wealth to fighting the system which made it pos- sible, was the unique entertainment pro- vided by the City club of Chicago at its luncheon last Wednesday. The speaker was Joseph Fels of Philadelphia, head of a naphtha soap company bearing his name. He said he was a disciple of Henry George and would always remain a “single taxer,” “We can't get rich in a lifetime nowa- days,* Mr. Fels sald, “under the present system of things, unless we do o by rob- bing the people.

TASTED GOOD_AND FELT GOOD What Happened to An Army Otficer Who Whispered Will You “Join Met” Brigadier General Clarence Edwards, chief of the bureau of Insular affairs, and intimate friend of President Taft, is one of the most popular men in public life in Washington. When General Fdwards was at Hot Springs, Va., soie of the natives introduced him to a very excellent drink, the principal ingredient of which was champagne. The general sampled it and found it to his lik- ing. He told a newspaper correspondent about it and proposed that they try it. The invitation was intended only for that particular correspondent, but, being an un- seifish sort of & person, he wished to let his friends in on the sampling proposition. “Edwards Is going to introduce me to a new kind of drink,” he informed his fellow workers. “We are now on the way to the bar.
