The Rev. Dr. Arthur Judson Brown, of New York, who discusses The War and our Devoted Missionaries in The Mission- ary Review of the World (April), has this
to say:
"It seems to us that for all the mission- aries in Korea to be withdrawn at this
time would be calamitoue. The property abandoned would probably be looted, not destroyed. Even in America aban

doned buildings are apt to suffer from thieves, and in such a country as Korea it is probable that little would be left. Moreover, the missionary is 'urgently neciled for unfeguarding the interests of the work and for moral effect upon the Koroans. As we are going on with our work, it is desirable to avoid, if possible, a demoralizing interregnum.
•Consider, too, the lot of the poor Kore. ans. Neithor Russians nor Japanese are apt to concern themselves particularly about the unhappy people who are between the upper and the nether millstones of con- tending armies, while at such a time lawless and turbulent men are almost certain to find their opportunity. Even in Christian America, when a destructive fire was raging in Baltimore, thieves and scoundrels took such advantage of the general panic that the police were unable to cope with the situation, and strong military force had to be called out. What, then,
is to be expected in such a country aa Kores in time of war? Those poor Korcans in this hour of nood will look to the Pro- testant missionary as to their only friend and counsellor, and if he leaves them, they will be scattered abroad as sheep having no shepherd. Now is the time for the missionary ministry in Korea. To leave the field to the politician, the soldier, and the trader would be to dishonor Christ, to fail to utilize an unprecedented opportunity, to abandon the helpless nativo Christians in their hour of sore need, and to prejudice missionary influence at home and abroad for a gonoration.*

They dance so hard that the trees, men and mountains seem to be leaping in unison with them and the elements seem to be lissolving. The ignorant on-looker is tempted to join in the intoxicating dance. Dr. McGill says that the local 'Dowie' approached him and waved over his head some paper on which were written in red certain meaningless characters, apparently trying to hypnotize him. We fancy he was not a very docile subject.

between the written down value of the Guiding Star and Morning Star, and the price at which they were sold. This might appear at first sight as profit, but in reality it represents (at least to a large extent) the accumulated savings of previous years which have been written off the boate and which were consequently of greater value than they appeared in the books: The Daily Telegraph, which also and in view of this it is proposed deals with the question, says:
