KOREA has a type of vital piety which reminds us of primitive Christianity. It is no uncommon sight to see men and women walking ten and twelve miles to a religious service. I have seen Christians on a rainy day, when the rain would be pouring down, and the water running in the streets, take off their shoes and socks, and covering their delicate horsehair hats with an oil-paper cover, and their shoulders with an oil-paper cape, wade through the streets on their way to the house of God. Men tithing their scanty means, and women taking off their jewelry and contributing it to help the poor, and extend the Gospel; men, like Paul, preaching the Gospel, and working at their trade to support themselves and families; women selling needles and trinkets in order to get into families otherwise barred to the preaching of the Gospel, and the general Christian conversation at home, on the street, in business, and everywhere at all times, evidence the devotion and religious activity of these young Christians of the once “Hermit Nation.”—Missionary Review.
