A young Indian who came to the mission to be cured of the "drink habit." He is a Christian now.

THERE is power in the gospel of Christ to save those who have sunken to the lowest depths. This is illustrated in an article by Elder B. L. Anderson, published in the Asiatic Division Mission News. He says this of two persons who have been attending his meetings: “Among those who have passed in their names and have attended the Bible classes were two persons whose characters might be called in question when we consider the business in which they were engaged. The one is a man whose business it is to collect the governmental revenue from the brothels, and the other is a woman who has been buying young girls and renting them out for immoral purposes. The revenue collector has faithfully attended the meetings for Bible studies, and become intensely interested in the gospel, and gives evidence of becoming a Christian. As the woman has listened to the preaching of the word and continued the study of the Bible, a new life has sprung up in her soul, and she sees the wonderful truth of God and recognizes the error of her ways, and has declared that the business in which she has been engaged must cease, and that henceforth she will live a different life.”
