Fifty years ago" said Earl Cairns
at meeting of the Church Missionary
Society, ''if a man had been ship
wrecked on some of the islands of tho
Pacific, he would have been killed,
cooked and eaten; whereas if man
were shipwrecked there now he would
receive a Christian hospitality. Miss
Gordon Cumming, who is not mis-
sionary, and who did not write for the
purpose of crying up missions, de.
clared that while in 1885 the people OF
Feiee were cannibals, there are now
400 churches and 1,400 schools there.
Lady Brassey writes that anybody who
wants to see the last traces of heathen-
ism in Japan had better so soon, as
they are rapidly giving place to Christi
anity."
Ex-Secretary Robson told the fol-
lowing story the other day about a
pale stone which he wears in his watch
chain: 1T was worn by my grand
father long before was born, and one
day while surveying in the woods on
the old property around Oxford he
lost it. Forty years afterwards my
father, then q young man, was APP
pointed the administrator OF the Jacob
Kale estate in Warren county, N. j.
Among the assets he found this stone;
he recognized it, and upon investiga-
ton found that ten years previously it
had been found by Mr.. Kale in the
woods where my grandfather had lost
it. 1t had lain there for thirty years.
1t isn't worth much, but it would take
good deal of money to buy it."
Mr.. Thomas G. Appleton, of Boston,
says: 81 suppose you are familiar with
the story OF Mr.. Phillips marriageP
How q gentleman asked Mr.. Sumner
to act as escort to a young lady who
was going to the convention at Albany,
and Mr. Sumner, being unable to 60,
resigned in favor of Mr.. Phillips.
How Mr.. Phillips acted as her escort,
and lost his heart to her before he got
back. How he called upon her often
in this city, but was not admitted,
| owing to her feeble health, but finally
he almost broke his way TO her, and
offered his hand. She said she would
never marry man unless he would
swear eternal enmity to slavery. But
it was not necessary for Mr. Phillips to
take that oath, he had already sworn
it in his heart. So they were married,
and the story of loving devotion and
perfect sympathy is as much matter
Of public knowledge as such sacred
subject should be.

purely vegetable compound of certain roots,
