Importance of the Exchange Reader.

Importance OF the Exchange Reader.
The man who reads the exchanges Is
a very important man, and, let me say,
too, he is pretty highly paid man He
has to read, we will say, 5000 papers
regularly. Ali the newspapers in the
country come into the Office, and he does
not do anything else. He sits at his desk
all day, and a pile of newspapers, or,
say, cord of newspapers, is laid before
him every morning. He starts to work
and turns them over and over to see
what is in them He has to know what
it is that should be taken from them
and put into his paper. What is the in
teresting story? 1t requires Judgment to
know this. 1t requires knowledge and
experience as well as talent 1t also re-
quires sense of humor, because there
are great many things that are really
important that may not seem so at the
first glance, and the newspaper reader
has got to judge about that. He must
always be on hand and spend a great
many hours at his desk, and he is pretty
tired when he gets through with his
day task. 1t is hard duty, but he has
lots of amusement, and, as / said, he is
very well paid. So he is happy. Charles

MISSIONARY WORK.
Same Further No-;ca Ct the Chief
Missionary Societies.
BY REV .. A. oGLEsBY, SELMA, \. q.

We saw IN former communication
that all the Missionary Societies were
organized in the closing wears Of the
last, and the beginning Of the present
century, and that anything ike an or
ganlzed effort by the churches to give
the world the gospel Is just about one
hundred years old. This is the mis-
slOnary century Of the christian church
Let Us note, in general way, some Of
the results
Most readers do not like figures and
| will not burden you with them but
let the christian worker look on the
/ following and rejoice while the most
skeptical should be convinced. The
| figures given are for 1891 and are re
liable. In this year the three hun
dred and four Missionary Societies and
agencies had in the different mission
fields Of the world 1904 missionaries ;;
2445 unmarried female missionaries :;

while the number OF native. under
daily Bible instruction in mission
schools Of all kinds ls not short Of one
million. One of the most significant
of all the results, alike in itself and its
meaning for the future, Is that there
are nearly four thousand native mission
aries and pastors in the older mission
fields, like that of India, the natives
exceed the foreign ordained mission
aries In mum bers. The increase OF ma
tive communicates, alike from the con-
version of adults, the development of
the native churches goes on at a re-
marlabIe ratio. The christian com
munities, not communicants, in all the
mission fields haye reached upward of
ten millions of souls In some almost
every convert becomes \ missionary. in
one cause or another. Much greater
care Is exercised in bringing people in
to the church than IN christian cOun-
tries, hence a large per cent of them
is ready to minister for Christ They
are his witnesses.
About one hundred years ago when
Early wrote his enquiry, which was in
the beginning of Modern Missions,
there were more than four times as
many non-christians as christians
Now there are Just twice as many, and
the spiritual conquests Of the non-chrs-
tian world by the Christ OF the gospels
are going on at an almost geometucal
ratio.
