China in the Missionary Review

The Missionary Review of the World for February contains some interesting and valuable articles on the present conditions in China. Rev. D. MacGillivray, of Shanghai, writes a clear statement of “China’s Present Relation to the Opium Traffic.” Rev. Thomas Windsor describes graphically the causes and oppression of “Domestic Slavery in China,” whereby thousands of girls and women are kept in bondage, are ill-treated, and are made to do menial tasks. Two other striking contributions are on “The Progress of Christianity in China” during the past century, and one giving a translation of “A Chinese Official View of Christian Missions.” This last is a most remarkable statement, and shows a complete change of attitude of the leaders of China toward the Christian religion. All these articles are well worth reading. Published monthly by Funk & Wagnalls Company, 44-60 East Twenty-third Street, New York; $2.50 a year.
