CHINA AND CHRISTIANITY.
[TO THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR." J
SIR,—To those who have had pleasure in reading your admirable article on " China and Christianity " in last week's Spectator, and would like to add to their knowledge of mission work in the Far East, I beg to recommend to their notice a book of psychological and historic interest published some months ago by Oliphant, Anderson, and Ferrier, of Edin- burgh, and called " The Heathen Heart: an Account of Mission Life in Formosa." The writer is Mr. Campbell Moodie, a missionary in the island, and of the United Free Church in Scotland. It is a book admirably calculated to free the mind of the over-sentimental of cant, and to stimulate the interest of all those who have hitherto been content to withhold everything from foreign missions save a tolerant criticism.—I am, Sir, &c., HELEN B. STEPHEN. 5 Blythswood Square, Glasgow.
