"The International City"

Situated in the southern part of the Tartar city of Peking, just inside the great Tartar wall, is what is known as Legation Quarters. Assembled here are soldiers, sailors, and marines, representing the following nations: United States, Great Britain, Germany, France, Austria, Belgium, Italy, Japan, Holland, and Russia.
These men are brought together many times in parades, games, and pleasures, and I know if you could see them at any of these times you would be willing to do all you could for them. Perhaps your son is among the number, or perchance your brother or a friend is one of them. But aside from personal considerations, you all believe in the soon coming of our blessed Redeemer. Any one wishing to help these men will kindly send literature in any of the above tongues to the writer, who is one of them.
F. E. DARLING. United States Legation Guard, Peking, China.
