CHRISTIANS IN THEORY:-A rich Ghina. man living on the Russian-Chinese frontier, near Blagovestchensk, found a new-born baby in the street.

Everyone asserted that it was a scandal that the police should give a Christian child to 2 heathen to rear. The police, in reply, published again a notice inviting some Christian to adopt the infant. But not one of the in- dignant "Christians" came forward, and so the baby remains with the "heathen."
