Some Dangers the missionaries
are Subject to.
(From Thomas McCloy, Canton,
China ] The quarter has been a
busy one. When in Cantonjpreach
ed as usual in missionary chapel
and assisted at the Union Hospital
Mude one trip to Wuchaw and had
a class with the memberi for a
week. The opportunities for street
preaching were good, One man
was baptized.
Part of November and December
made a journey .to Shek long and
and Tsing Chow stations. At
Shek Tong had excellent meet
ings ; seven men applied for bap
tism and five were accepted.
From Shek Tong toTsengChow
it is ten days journey by water, so
I decided to try a trip over the
mountains, By going about thirty
miles a day we were able to do it
iu three days, but the roud is very
mouutaneous aud infested by rob
bers. One day we saw the fresh
blood on the road and other evi
dence of the robbers work. At one
place could be seen the headless
body of a robber covered with
leaves. The preacher who was
with us is sure that one man went
ahead of us to gother sufficient
robbers to attack us, but the Lord
protected us and brought us
through in safety, though I hardly
think r will risk that road again.
From Bro. G. F, Hajnbleton.
Japan : In some sections we have
had persecutions. At Sapucala a
mob of infuriated Catholics broke
into our house of worship and
knocked the lamps from their
places with stones, drove the peo
ple out of the house, tore down the
pulpit and destroyed all the sea's,
breaking out all the windows,
leaving the house a ruin, 1 hey
were prevented from murdering
our native evangelist, Brother
Barbosa, bv a resolute merchant,
who wrs Bro, Barbosa’s J'riend.
The Lord has always a means for
defending his own. We do not
fear persecutions, but indifference.
The town is deeply stirred. I
baptized eight there the.next week.
The following is from the Bap
tist missionary Magazine: Ho
■Chiang Kuzi was seized by the
•Boxers and beaten to compel him
to tell where the missionarys had
gone. He said he had rather die
than betray his friends, the mis
sionaries. He was beaten with
1,03 stripes, and then with his
body nearly reduced to a pulp he
was shackled and thrown into
prison, where he died.
Chan Chi Ching was taken, his
Bible opeaed 'before him, and he
was asked to forswear Christianity
He said he could not do so. Then
he vvas beaten several times, and
ach time implored not to be so
foolish as to throw away his life.
Remaining immovable, he was
thrown into the tire and burned
alive.
Chav Ilsin Mao was threatened
bv the Boxers Said, come what
may I shall’ stay, and if need be,
testify that the fear of God is bet
ter than lif*. He was first, beaten,
then bound, and then his head
placed below the blade of a straw
cutter. Now recant- said his op
pressors, feeling sure he would ask
for mercy. lam not afraid to die,
said he, be quick in your dispatch
of me, that is all I ask, and they
took his body and minced it.
throwing the flesh into the fire.
These were Chinese Christians.
Surely brethren will not say that
Chinese Christians are rice Chris
tians and will not hold out faith
ful. They are more consecrated
than our people. Pray for them,
brethren.

The Sunday School Teacher.
F. T. WILLIAMS,
The Sunday school teacher is a
mighty factor in preparing the
minds of the pupils for the recep
tion of the gospel. In doing his
work he must take into considera
tion all the difficulties he will meet
and sek the best means possible
to meet them.
He is a workman with Christ
the master workman as his guide.
Christ never did consider himself
alone, He said “I must be about
mv fathers business” and he al
ways wosked on the positive side,
never on the negative. Healways
appeared in good attitude, and
lead an ideal life, which should be
two great fundamentals of 'he
fThis
is the trade
mark which
is found on
every bottle
of the genuine
Scott’s Emulsion
the standard Cod Liver
Oil preparation of the
world. Nothing equals
it to build up the weak
and wasted bodies of
young and old.

Sunday School Teacher.
And the teacher must remember
that he has a task, but it is a task
worth while. The sdf trained
teacher feels the consciousness of
the great work he has to accom
plish. He realizes that his mis
sion is: Ist To win souls to Christ,
2nd to train souls for Christ.
Doubtless a great many teachers
do not give the proper time to the
study of the leßson, but above all
he must feel the responsibility of
what he is doing. He should
never become d’seouraged if he
does not see results in his early
work. Let him remember that
all conquerors in life have to fail.
The Sunday school teacher must
t_ke an interest in his work aud
by continued faithful effort he will
come out more than conquerored-
Some teachers live untrained in
full view of the school house which
by every yard work would equip
and qualify them for the duties
that confront them.
The self trained teacher has a
purpose working steadily to a des
tined end. It takes time for him
to develope himself and be his best.
His speculative doubts mav be
dispelled by prayer and his healthy
exercise in the Christian life.
In this age there is something
always “new” in some Sunday
schools, something that will at
tract, But nothing will take the
place of the Bible. The people
will be satisfied with nothing else,
however helpful and instructive
the “attractions” may seem to be
therefore the teacher needs to be a
devoted Bible student.
The self trained teacher is con
stantly using all means possible to
bring his class to a high standard
and he is never satisfied wtth a
definite number on his roll. Michael
Angelo walking through the
streets of Venice with a friend
stopped and with a stick raked the
dirt off a stone. His friend inquir-
ed his reason for that, whereupon
he replied that there was an augel
in the stone, He had the stone
sent to bis workshop and the great
sculptor carved a beautiful figure
®f the rough stone. The Sunday
schoo l teachers are face to face
with the problem that around them
may be someone who might be
trained and made a mighty insttu
ment for Christ, so he seeks after
them and is not content until he
has everyone within his reach a
pupil in the Sunday school.
Love reigns supreme in the
heart of the selt trained teacher
for his class, lie gives them the
best in him, and is ever zealous of
doing the greatest amount of good
possible. The difficulties he faces
which no inquiry can remove will
meet und.er the pervent heat of
his passion for God.
Let it be the home in mind that
the teacher oftoday cannot be
made, he has got to be grown. The
lowly Nazarine spent 30 years of
his life preparing for his w T ork aud
the Sunday school teacher of to
day needs preparation and training
for his work. Let him train him
self, and I would not have anyone
who undertakes the work of the
Sunday school teacher for a mo
ment to fail to realize his respon
sibility and take the words of the
great Apostle into his life. ‘-Study
to shew thyself approved unto
God a worthy workman which
needeth not to be ashamed rightly
dividing the word of truth.

Visit Your Schools.
You hear a great deal about our
schools, talk much about
think some about them, aud per
adventure wonder not a little more
about them than if they were in
China. How many heads of fam
ilies, parents, business men, men
of minds, ever cross the threshold
of the school room? How many
ever offer a word of encourage
ment to teacher or scholar and let
them know by your presence, at
least occasionally, In the school
room that you are an interested
party, really des'rous that they
should prosper, and that you have
their best welfare at heart? llow
many have personally recognized
the head of the school, he who has
the training of the mind and the
building of and establishing the
character of your boy or girl? How
many have kindly counseled and
advised with him, showing you
are with him in the great work,
wishing him well, and cheering
with a “God speed. How few.
methinks. can answer in the affirm
ative, aud yet you often hea* - of
the school and feel that it is not
what it should be, and what you
wish it was. Will it help it to be
constantly finding faults, contin
ually growling and denouncing it
with almost every breath? and
when some trivial or eveu gtave
mistake is made will it better mat
ters to pompously parade the same
before the public.
Things are not often just as we
would like t" have them, and sur
rounding circumstances not always
as we imagine or hear they are,
and very often if we knew the
exact condition and state of affairs
our minds and opinions would be
the reverse to what they were
without a knowledge of facts.
Now this is merely offered as a
hint, and while we presume many
will read it, it is hoped some will
think about it, and at least a few
be induced to act upon it ad visit
our school at leait occasionally.
