AN IWFEBESTING LETTER _ FROM CHINA. The Epworth League Convention now in session at Warsaw gives interest to this letter. Last year at Wakarusa, where the convention was held. Dr. McCartney was present. His addresses were features of the convention. He has been in China twelve years a Medical Missionary of the Methodist Episcopal church. The awakening that has come to this people during these years has simply been marvelous. I Dr. McCartney is supported by the league of Goshen District. The chapter here contributes to this fund. Ichang, China, Nov. ’O9 Dear Friends; Our return trip to China: We left New York City Sept. 18, on the S. S Arabic of the White Star Line for London, England, where I wished to put in one month’s work in the School of Tropical Medicine. We landed in Liverpool after a very smooth and uneventful voyage of eight days. Our travelling companions were very congenial. We had the pleasure one evening of addressing the entire company on the subject of “Missions in China.” We travelled to London byway of Manchester, reaching the city two or three days before the opening of the School. The Tropical School of Medicine was opened about 10 years ago for the study of diseases peculiar to the tropics. It was from this school that the commission to study sleeping sickness went to Africa, and whose finding has resulted in untold benefit to millions. Dr. Manson, the head, was knighted by the King for his discoveries in relation to the mosquito and Malaria Fever, the first man to bring the revages of the hook-worn to the attention of the profession is also a professor in the school. These three discoveries has done more for the human race than all the discoveries of new lands within the past 500 years. The school is in connection with the Seamen’s Hospital, where seamen from all parts of the world are brought, suffering with diseases peculiar to tropical climates. In this respect it excells any other port in the world. z Six or eight missionary physicians from India and China were in the attendance and at least | of the number were from U. S.» we left London, October 23, and crossed the channel to the Hook of Holland, thence to Berlin, Warsaw, Moscow and Harbin by the mid-week International express. Russia is indeed a closed country, even much more so than China, both going in and leaving we were compelled to show our pass-ports and have our baggage examined. The Russians do not make a very favorable impression upon the traveller going through the country. The morals of the people are very bad, and the graft of the officials worse than even in America. Space forbids a description of the churches we visited, or the different sights we saw while in Russia. The most intelligent and cleanly (this last perquisite being very rare among the people) were the convicts of whom you have often heard. When we reached Irkutsk we fund the thermoneter down 20 below zero. We travelled by Russian train, which is after the European model, as far as Kwan Chen taz in Manchuria. This is as far as the Japanese reached in their March of Conquest. Here we took a Japane:e train brought from U. S., engine, Pullman and all, run in American style, the finest train in Asia, we feit proud that we were Americans, and no doubt our English friends heard the eagle scream more after 12 days on a Russian train. » We reached Pekin the capital of China 14 days from London. We spent one day there and visited the Temple of Heaven, the greatest sight in China and perhaps one of the greatest in the world. The greatest sight is the process of

— z- 11 — Christian Missions, of which our church has the largest and finest plant in the city Evangelical, Medical and Educational. The silent influence of this one mission in North China is greater than that which has gone out from the Temple of Heaven for the past 100 years. The next day we took the fast express to Han Kow, which place we reached in 36 hours from Pekin. This railroad has been built within the last 6 year and after travelling on this line even the most skeptical must admit that China is m3ving. We have now come to the end of steam navigation and in a few days we will leave here, in company with Bishop Bashford, by house boat for Chung King. The journey will take at least a month and we will not be able to reach there before Christmas. Prav for us that we may be able to help China in the great reforms that are now taking place here, that all may be done in the right way. Your brother in Him, Jas. H. McCartney, M. D. The Horse’s Prayer. To Thee, my Master, I offer my prayer: Feed me, water and care for me, and, when the day’s work is done provide me with shelter, a clean dry bed and a stall wide enough for me to lie down in comfort. Always be kind to me. Talk to me. Your voice often means as much to me as the reins. Pet me sometimes, that I may serve you the more gladly and learn to love you. Do not jerk the reins, and do hot whip me when going up hill. Never strike, beat or kick me when I do not understand what you want, but give me a chance to understand you. Watch me, and if I fail to do your bidding, see if something is not wrong with my harness or feet. Do not check me so that I cannot have the free use of my head. If you insist that I wear blinders, so that I cannot see behind me as it was intended I should, I pray you be careful that the blinders stand well out from my eyes. Do not overload me, or hitch me where water will drip on me. Keep me well shod. Examine my teeth when I do not eat, I may have an ulcerated tooth, and that, you known, is very painful. Do not tie my head in an unnatural position, or take away my best defense against flies and mosquitoes by cutting off my tail. I cannot tell you when I am thirsty, so give me clean cool water often. Save me, by all means in your power, from that fatal disease —the glanders. 1 cannot tell you in words when I am sick, so watch me, that by signs you may know my condition Give me all possible shelter from the hot sun, and put a blanket on me, not when I am working but when I am standing in the cold. Never put a frosty bit in my mouth; first warm it by holdipg it a moment in your hands. I try to carry you and your burdens without a murmur, and wait patiently for you long hours of the day or night. Without the power to choose my shoes or path, I sometimes fall on the hard pavements which I have often prayed might not be of wood but of such a nature, as to give me a safe and sure footing. Remember that I must be ready at any moment to lose my lite in your service. And finally, 0 my Master, when my useful strength is gone, do not turn me out to starve or freeze, or sell me to some crueLowner to be slowly tortured and starved to death; but do Thou, my Master, take my life in the kindest way, and your God will reward you here and hereafter. You will not consider me irreverent if I ask this in the name of Him who was born in 4 a’ stable. Amen. Water Kent Notice. All water rent is due on or before July 1, and payable to the town clerk. If not paid by that time water will be turned off. e-o-w 2-t Ons C. Butt Clerk.
