THE WINGHAM TIMES, SEPTEMBER, 13 1906 Letter to the Members o- Young People's Societies in the Presby- tery of Maitland. Fsr,Low Womms—Early in the year when reports were being sent in to me from the different Societies, several sug- gested that as convener I should send out a letter such as this. The sugges- tion I take np as an experiment. It is very easy to write to people when all is going well between the people written to and the writer. The report I was able to send to the Assembly's and Synod's conveners was a very satisfactory one, and elioited o oreplimentary remarks from both at As- sembly and Synod respectively. The re• port showed that we have 20 Societies or Bible Classes, from whom we received help — a very large proportion of the Presbytery. Our total membership was reported as 878, of whom M2 were young men And 530 young women, It is most gratifying also to know that 617 were members of the church it, le our privilege to serve. It is interesting to note that almost all the Societies take a part in the support of the missionary work we have undertaken as a Presbyterial. Our Home Mission field is till Moyle and Creston B. 0., from whom from year to year we hear varying reporte. Our good friend, Rev. C. MoDiarmid, has left the field, so our next report will be froth a stranger. Let me give you some gleanings from Mr MoDiarmid's last letter. He told us that the little mission had fallen upon evil days, for diphtheria had appeared in several cases and two cases had proven fatal. This meant for a time the closing .of the services, and when they re -opened people were slow to come back. Eight families moved away, which loss was severely felt ; but most of all Mr MoDiarmid lamented the drowning of a fine young cbristian man from Ontario. This young man was not afraid to stand out boldly for Christ. Mr. McDiarmid says, "We cannot un- derstand why God removes one who is so much needed, but we believe that He has a wise purpose. Perhaps some one who hears the story will take up the standard that has fallen from his hand; ot, his confession of Christ here may lead many to ask, 'Do I stand where I • am because I am untried, or, do I so love Christ that I would openly serve Him even if I stood alone?' " May it be so there and here. Yea, Young People we are doing well to keep this mission field open though it may seem "the day of small thinge." We work in conjunction with that young soldier of Jesus Christ, but we belonged to the commissariat, and he to the fighting lino. Mr McDiarmid tells an interesting story of a $5.00 bill. He got it from a boy of eleven who lives too far away from church or Sunday school to attend either. The boy had what he called a " missionary hen " which his mother fed free of charge. the boy olaimed that she was a Presbyterian hen because she made such a good record. She laid $1.00 worth of eggs, and raised $4 00 worth of chickens and would have done better only that British Columbia hawks do not recognize the claims of the church. Mr McDiarmid adds, "the missionary in- stinct does not belong exclusively to any particular breed of hens, it belongs to the heart of the owner." What do you think he means? Sometimes we have thought it might be well to change our Home Mission field, but surely We shall stand by this needy place, and be cheered to think that along with the regular work done, and it is bard work too, we have heard of two such splendid worker e as these. Then I must tell you something about our Foreign Mission work, for we are supporting a native preacher in India and one in China,each of which costs$50. These men cannot write in, our language, so we do not hear from them direct, bnt we do not support them to write letters to ns, but to preach the Gospel to their countrymen. The Rev. R. 1'. MoKay, D. D., has kindly given me several letters from .which I might glean what natives preachers do. In studying these letters I find that there is a likeli- hood of there being a large increase in the number of available native preachers, as a result of the great revivalthat has been going on, especially in India. It should he very interesting for ns as young people to know that this great work began among the young. Rev. R. A. King, of Indere, says in bis letter that the boys from Rasalpura were out camping for a Week, !studying the Bible as usual, and after the camping was over the power of the Truth appeared maui- festing itself in an intense concern about sin and forgiveness. The same spirit broke out among the girls of the board. ing school. Jnst fancy young people re- maining to pray after a meeting had been dismissed ; fanest young people con- ducting meetings without a leader for 3 houre. Should not this earnestness abroad stir us np at home? It is maul to ask, "Will it last?" Of course many will "yield to temptation," but a more important question for us is"Shall we not help those who are faithful. Shall wo not help some other yonng man with the preaching gift to declare salvation to• his perishing countymen." In China the work accomplished by native preachers is ever increasing. la Rev. J, Goforth's field which is called Changte Fn field this is very evident. The extent of that field is about equal to the counties of Beilex, Kent, tlgin, ABSOLUTE SECURITY, Cenu Ina Carter's Little Liver Pills. Must Bear Signature of Seo rac..shiilia Wrapper Below.

Middlesex and Lambtou, but the popula- tion is much tlie same as we have in older Ontario. The Missionary's work there seems to attract great crowds of the young. It was in 1894 that a foot• hold was gotten at Changte Fa and al- ready the baptised members and catechu- mens exceed six hundred. Among these there are 39 native workers who attend- ed the idolatrous fairs and preached as much of the gospel as they knew, 31 of them were self-supportin'g. There is a Mr. Hu whom Mr. Goforth warmly praises. At his own expense be remain- ed 13 days at the fair, even pawning his overcoat that he might continue longer declaring the gospel. Mr. Goforth adds, "Such preachers shall be irresistible, with men so filled with the Spirit of Jesus the field is full of promise." Let us not delay it by any lack of interest. In concluding this letter let • me say that Dr. E. D. McLaren, General Se- cretary of Home Missions, has sent his thanks for our past support of Moyie and Creston, and Dr. R. P. McKay for our support of two native preachers in the Foreign field. I should also like to to draw your attention to a new book shortly to be published by the Young People's Committee called, "Missionary Pathfinders," the price of which, we ex- pect will be 35c. We hope to hear that it will prove useful in every society. Yours sincerely, J. JHASTXE, Convener of,Y. P. S. in Presbytery. -eaTessratitims • 11t1. iTkr0a1:r100SN7ilL0N:sTiyFE:E ,ots.r I.

Limited, Niagara Falls, Ont. THE SOLDIER OF FORTUNE Years ago, in Guelph, a ragged man knocked at the door of a little home in the Royal City. He was destitnte—not exactly a tramp, rather a soldier of for- tune, a fortune that had need him roughly. It was in the dead of winter, and, look- ing down, the man who opened the door observed that the caller had shoes that were full of holes. His pay was not more than $1.25 a day and ho had not as yet stored away any of this world's goods for the rainy day. He asked the chap in, and gave him a pair of boots which, if not nobby, were yet whole. The soldier of fortune was able to se- cure employment in Guelph. 1s days grew brighter. • His luck changed. He saved enough money piling lumber to purchase a decent suit of clothes, and kept on saving. He was advanced from the lumber yard to the works. He still kept on saving, and as his dol. lars increased he invested in small houses. Twenty-five years later this soldier of fortune had no lees than five small homes which were all rented, bringing him a fair income. He kept plugging away as hard as eyer. We will call him Brown for short, but that is not his name. Brown was a reticent fellow and said nothing of the past, but it was evident that he was a man of considerable cul- ture, an Englishman of gentle birth. However, he was a man of integrity, and they took him for what he was worth. Meanwhile the man who opened the door kept etxuggling on. His family was large and growing. He had had consider- able sickness and was one of the unskill. ed unfortunates that you see everywhere ; it took every oopper to make ends meet. The man who opened the door hadn't much 'schooling, and, realizing the hard- ship, he was educating his children and denying himself. Well, to cut this story short, the erst- while soldier of fortune passed out one day—out into the unknown—and before he died he sent for the man who had given htm the boots and told him he wished to speak to him alone with the doctor. "My friend," he said, "I trio going to give my property to you. My relatives do not know that I ani alive, nor do I oare." Then he recalled the incident of the boots years and years ago. Not long since the man who gave the boots went over the river to join his ben- efactor. Tho houses still stand in Guelph, and I have seen them often. Charles F.
