Almost every one who has friends In mission work in India knows that one very important function of the mis sionary Is to play the part of match maker to bis Hock. Hut few If any have beard of the conditions being re versed and the Hock turning match maker for their Missionary. -That does occur, however as the letter written by n mlssloniuy who lives at Tutl corln, south India, tells: On New Year's day, lull, as 1 was prated In my little mud cottage at Tutlcorln a number of people entered the veranda and ceremoniously came Into my room, bearing trays of Hew ers, fruits, raisins and sugar, which they placed at my feet like suppliants who desire to gain the hearing of n petition. After all due ceremonial eti quette hiut been observed nnd I had indicated my willingness to hear their petition Itrother Guana Ornvluui, n prominent lawyer in Tutlcorin, began reading in Tamil an address to which the others gave strict attention. It ran like this: "Reverend Sir You have now for nearly two years bestowed great care and labor upon us. ministering to our spiritual welfare and striving for the health of our souls to such an extent that you have greatly Impaired your own physical health, and we feel" that you need soim one to care for you. since you do not car, for yourself. We fear lest your zeal in our behalf I may deprive us at once of your life l and services. Therefore, with pro ! found humility and sincere respect, wu I venture to request you to marry a good ivomaii. who will both care for 1 you mid help us." This was naturally a confusing thing I to happen, but I wi:p bound to re- spend to smh an eloquent appeal, and when the applause died awny 1 rose i and answered with considerable effort- !
