Relative to the Great Cause.
The subject for the International
Sunday-school lesson for Nov. 13, is/
“The first Christian Missionaries.” So
that the Sunday-school scholars and
teachers all over the world are now
studying about the . mighty . , , movement .
commenced at Antioch A. D. 45, when
Paul and Barnabas led the first Chris
tian Mission to the heathen. This was
a great event in the history of the world.
Most of the converts then forming the
Christian church had been heathens
and they naturally felt an interest in
their . . brethren; ... for . the , love of „ e r Christ ,. „■ .

Salvation to all who have not heard of it.
The Forgotten Promise.

men. lie had asked that rnissiooary
teachers might be sent to tell of this
wonderful religion to himself and his
people; and the promise was made that
they would soon come with the mes
sage. The old chief believed the
nroraise. Year after year he aod his
people had waked. He had lost faith

his heart was hungry for the message
of fife and peace.
lie was sure the while men, who had
the wonderful Book, would come, and
that his people would share the blessings
their religion had brought to their own
land. But the years passed, and of they
did not come. Faint memories the
blessed word he had heard lingered God in
his heart; hut the people to whom
had entrusted that treasure kept it to
themselves, and he and lus people
would soon go out into the darkness
without the fight.
His eve was growing dim with age,
but he still looked for their coming.
Surely a messenger might have been
sent.

Had the Savior also forgotten him?
