A HINT.

A MISSIONARY of experience gives this suggestive hint, which is worthy of note:—
"Let me say to those who may be looking forward to work in India, make sure before sailing that you can give a reason for the hope that is in you. That reason will be in demand when you work among Hindus.
"Both the study of apostolic Christianity and religions of India will be of use in understanding better the nature of the problems which must be met on the mission field. Especially has the study of the early conflict of Christianity and paganism in the Roman Empire thrown light on the modern conflict in India. Both by the similarities and the differences of these two conflicts, are one's anticipations of immediate success sobered, while one's faith in the ultimate triumph grows more firm and abiding."
