What a Tract Has Done.

A TORN Gospel of Mark, given in Orissa to a man who could not read, was one of the most important links in the chain through which the church at Khunditiur was formed, which has been in existence some forty years, and from which some of the best Orissa preachers have come. A tract, the "True Refuge," received at Chittagong, led to the formation of the church at Comillah, in eastern Bengal. This same tract has led many others to Christ. Tract distribution lay at the foundation of the great work in Backergunge. The "Jewel Mine of Salvation," and other tracts, have been wonderfully blessed in Orissa. A Gospel and tract given on a tour in Assam to a Garo man led to his conversion, and eventually to the commencement of that promising work of the American Baptists in the Garo Hills, where there are now a thousand church members or more.—Selected.
