Seven years in Ceylon: stories of mission life . catechists and Bible-women; that theattendance at church and Sabbath-school isincreasing; that moonlight, village, and Sab-bath afternoon meetings are so largely attended ?All the educated men and women, and theolder children in the schools, are ashamed ofthe ceremonies connected with the Sivite worship and the great festivals, and do notparticipate in them. All through the villages there are men and women who do notrub ashes or visit heathen temples, and many of these in their hearts wor^hip the trueGod and try to serve Him, but, like Nicodeinus, they fear to confess Him frequently such persons boldly confess on their death-beds that they are Christians,and we trust many names not enrolled on our church books will be found in the Lambs Book of Life. We rejoice and thank God for all this, and yet. with you, we are not satisned, butwe long with almost a painful earnestness for more to come to Christ.
