lieve him in great part of the burden of
the work he has carried as missionary
bishop of the dark continent. The
choice Of the conference centered on DIR.
Hartzell, and he was elected OH the
second ballot by large vote. The re-
]oicing OF the delegates and spectators
at this suspicious settlement of most
perplexing question found vent i'm en-
thusiastic applause. Led to the platform
by Bishop Andrews, he was warmly
greeted by all the bishops. One threw
his arms around his neck. The climax
was reached after the other bishops were
taking their seats, when Bishop Taylor
arose and, with patriarchal dignity
walking to the center of the platform,
clasped hands with DR.. Hartzell. No
word was spoken. None was needed.
Their eyes met, and each read the 9TH

Handkerchiefs waved, hands clapped

Lesson For the Week Beginning March Ia.
Comment by Rev. w. j. Yates, A. NJ.
Topic, Blessedness of Missionaries.

SCRIPTURE READINo.-Isa. Iii, 40.
The Bible reading describes the bless
ings brought by the messengers OF the
gospel and the happiness thus derived
from their labors rather than the good
which they receive themselves. The
story of missionary effort is full of
thrilling episodes and romance. No 9TH
or field of literature opens such treasure
as this to the gifted writer. The church
is just beginning to appreciate the fact
that heroism is not extinct How the
world thrilled at the story of Living
stones adventures in the wilds of Afri-
cal Where he wandered in trackless
wilderness there is now springing up an
empire, and cities with all the appli-
anoes Of civilization have replaced the
kraals of naked savages. Stanley's ex-
plorations opened the dark continent to
the light Of Christianity.
Every chapter should begin the study
of missions in earnest. Preparations are
we'll In hand to furnish fresh literature
on this subject. A missionary library Is
projected by our people, to be issued by
the Book Concern and placed at 80 low q
price as to be within reach of all.
II the old monthly missionary prayer
meeting is gone, why cannot its place
be taken BY monthly Sunday evening
service Of song and readings and ad-
dresses on the fresh and ever interesting
facts Of missionary intelligence? In
The Gospel In All Lands, the monthly
missionary magazine published by our
own Book Concern. will always be found
valuable suggestions for programmes
and also information for speeches and
essays Members of the League and
Sunday school and Of the various local
missionary societies could well unite in
the work.
"What Christian missions have done
for Japan" would be good topic for
one evening. Every public library has
books helpful in preparing such theme.
The leading magazines often have
illustrated articles of much value in tho
line Of mission work. These are often as
valuable as distinotively religious pub
