Am Appeal to ChrlfltUllRi
The most pitiful cry for bread
that ever fell from human lips or
readied human earfl comes from
famine-smitten India. Many mil
lions of human hoings are in va
rious staged of starvation, and a |
considerable proportion of these at
death's door! The greatest catas
tropho of tho closing century is
new culminating, and unless help
cq#es spoodily to India's relief, ?
vast number of human beings must

lasts?
One missionary recently wroto .
"According to tho prophecies the
^ ' famine is month by month increas
ing in severity. It bus not even
Vot readied its worst. Rain has
not yet descended on the parched
fields, therefore distress will giow
^greater daily. After the vain c?.nea
it will bo months before any food
can be harvested. As tho resources
of the people fall, the number of
Btarvlng must increase. The gov
ernment has a terrible problem to
HO|ve?tho famine is tho worst it
has ever had to grapple with."
The relief of the famir.c-slriokon
people of India is a task for the
whole world. Neither Kngland nor
any other one nation could fully
meet tho crisis. India'a only hope
is that all mankind will hear her
cry and put out a holplug hand.
The uiissiouairios are giving their
all to the people, and daily sending
ut appeals to all the charitable of
don't ?fisUMidotn aBklng for help. If
?-Hull's >id of al1 nations is needed,

M.,,?je0sp?ud to tho cry of su/lering
t is <'oiuauity.
,'p!swrFor many years Christian mis
aionaries have pointed the people
to tho Saviour, and thousands have
acceptod him. Indeed, the cause
of Christ is making wonderful pro
gress among the dense native pop
ulation of India, and now that di
?astor lias befallen them and death
is threatening them, what wonder
that thoy are hoping for help from
this country whence hail the mis- j
' sionaries who have told them again
and ngain tho beautiful story of
Jcsue-'who went about doing good,
who fed t?.o multitudes, and whose
followers in this pm^perous couu
try are walking ln 1,1(5 footsteps of j
their Master, ;daily testing their
lives by tho standard he establish
ed, and ever asking themselves,
"What woulA Jesus do?"
And shall they look in vam?|
Shall they be disappointed? Shall
wo lead them to believe that our
religion is mere profession? Shall
we ehuV up tho bowels of our com
passion end tell them that Ameri

As Dr. Klopsch went to Kit^tua
and Cuba with relief when plange
and famine were devastating those
lands, so this year lie went to India
to personally supervise the distri
; bntion of the food and money for

ald, of New York. Four cents a
" day will support a life. Two dol
v lars will keep a man, woman or
