The meeting of the Bible Society,1
which was held. Oast week was well
attended, A very interesting address
by Rev. Mr. Smith, a returned this-
ciouary from China, was given. He
said that some people were saying °y
that the Bible was getting played out.
The Bible Society is now. printing the
Bible in over eight hundred languages
and dialects, twenty millions of
copies of the •Scripture every year.
It does not look as if it was getting
played out. The -views that Mr. Smith
showed of interesting places in China
were especially fine. He said that a
portion of Scripture Is given to every
immigrant in his owls language when
he lands on our shores,

Vend.

by that time what is
needed."

to take orders over.
He knows the value of
