The Famine in India.
Story of a Returned
Missionary.

The Rev. w. b. Boggs Of the
Baptist mission at Secunderabad,
India, addressing the Baptist Minis
terI Conference in New York re-
Gently, spoke of the work of the mis-
siOn, and also gave details about the
famine in India. 1t was two months
ago that he left there, he said, but
even st that time he saw enough to
justify all that he has since read as
to the great destitution and suffer
ing.
He himself was stationed emily on
the edge of the famine district, but
on his was home he passed Though
some of the scorst sections. In some
eases the government had gathered
as many ~ $4,000 persons into one
camp. The plague and cholera had
attacked these camps, and sometimes
the people died faster than they
could be buried. He repeated the
advice Of many other returned mis-
sionaries to send relief in the form
Of money, which, he suggested, might
be cabled to the local missionary
boards. Two cents a day, he said,
would keep native alive in India
The merchants are importing grain
all the time, and money eabled will
afford the quickest relief.

Of the United States take and rsqui-
re in constantly increasing quantities.
The importation of raw materials fer
use in manufacturing has increased
steadily and now forms more than
one third Of our total imports, and
the large proportion Of this comes
from the tropics. OF india rubbs-
alone the imports Of the ten months
amount to more than 427 100000;
of fibrss, to 100000, 900; of unma-

ton, over$7, 900, 900; Of gums, more
than $5, ,OO0;000 while cabinet woods,
dyewoods, indigo and ivory also
aggregate several millions.
Of the constantly increasing pro-
portion ofimports of foodstuffs, sugar
of course is first, and of that, the
proportion which comes from the
tropics is vastly greater in the past
year than in Immediately preceding
years, the Dutch East Indies, which
lie just alongside Of TIE Philippines,
being now our largest single source
OF supply for sugar. For the ten
months the importations Of sugar
are more than eighty million dollars;
those of coffee nearly fifty milliens;
tea, nearly ten millions; tobacco,
six teen millions; tropical fruits and
nuts, fifteen millions; cocoa and
chocolate, five millions and such
other articles as spices, rice, olive
oil ETC., add leveraI millions to the
total.

The United States
and Latin America.
Has the Monroe Doctrine lost
its vigor.

Press reports from Mexico and
South America contain many indi-
cations that there il a feeling of ap.
prehensiOn among the Latin Ameri-
can Republics as to the future policy
Of the United States. Until recent,
ly there has existed in South Amer
lea 3 general feeling of security, at
least SO far as any menace Of foreign
interference was concerned, because
Of the general belief that the Monroe
Doctrine was one of the established
institutions of the United States
qOhich that country would always
uphold, and under it guarantee to
these republics Independence and
self government.
Now, however, what appears to
them the changed attitude of the
United States since the close Of the
Spanish-American War seemed to
have become the cause Of some
uneasiness in Political and govern.
mental circles.
In recent issue of the MeSican
Herald, published in the City Of
Mexico, and journal OF wide circu.
lation aud influence iu Latin Amer.
lea, this feeling has been given sx-
preston.
This paper seems especially con
cerned as to the policy to be pursued
with reference to Cuba.
In an editorial on this subject. it,
says:
stIt is undeniable that since the
United States fought with Spain
and remained with Porto Rico and
the Philippines as annexed posses
sions, and with Cuba held in tutsla
ge. sentiment Of apprehension re-
gardiug the future policy Of the
ssOolossus of the North,n has come
to be general throughout Latin: Anne
RIGA. Should Cuba be given over to
the Cuban PEOPLE, the United States
90 fulhlling the solemn pledge of
Congress, Latin Americans will re
gard with very different than present
feelings the great republic which for
three. quarters Of a century has been
their eremplar and their sole assur-
ance OF the perpetuity of republican
institutions in the New Torldr
In the opinion Of the "Herald" it
would be an act Of wise statesman
ship on the part Of the United States
to make some definits announcement
IF policy which would rsassurs the
people Of South America and quiet
tho apprehension which it believes
now exists. TO this end it SUI gesis
that Congress Should adopt resolu.
ton committing the United States
to policy Of maintaining the terri:-
orial integrity Dot only Of Mexico,
but Of the Central and South Ams-
rican countries.

The noted author Ian Maclaren
very truly said. I'VE live on three
levels-the physical, where we eat and
drink; the intellectual. where we read
and think; the spiritual. where we
pray and love. and it goes without
saying that the third is the highest.
with the rarest air and the widest
vision"
The important questions for each one
Of us are: To which do give the most
attention? In which am l most inter
ested? With the activities of which
Am most absorbed? The answer
which our lives are giving day by day
will determine our erernal welfare
