Surely no one can understantiingly answer
the question, .'achere is it best to send mission
aries !" without firstduly considering the COM
parative population of the places in question,
and the comparative facilities for imparfiAg
Christian knowledge to that population. On

lions of vo,,r race are PROSTATE AZ uour feet.
