THERE have been many attempts to reform Hinduism from within, both on the religious and social side, but one after another the attempts end in failure. In certain sections of Hindu society strenuous efforts have been made to create a public opinion against the bane of early marriages, and one prominent reformer, Mr. Justice Telang, a judge of the High Court, Bombay, incurred no small measure of odium by the vigor with which he advocated this reform. But when the moment came for withstanding the dominating influence of Hindu tradition in his own family, the reformer succumbed and gave his child daughter of eight years in marriage. It is obvious that no reform can be trusted which does not rest on faith in God. The faith which sees God's truth and stands in his will is the only conquering force in the reformation of society. Hinduism needs not reformation but regeneration.—Missionary Record.
