M.

C. where they were the object i a rea: aeai or curiosity. While there Mr. II. J.

Baiber used them for the subject of an impromi.u talk on India.

Barber stated that if lie had not caused a deeper interest in least one lesson in geography he had failed in his object; and if the books In the library that treated of Indi were not in greater demand, for a time at least it would be a regret to him.

The speaker said: Bishop Ninde, while visiting some missionaries iear Calcutta, saw an old Brahman priest who was intently readinsr, i blshP's surprise was reading "Pilgrim's Progress."
