One fact thrusts itself in our faces as soon as we ask this question this great increase of wealth is visible mainly, after all, in Christian lands. We said that the world is growing rich, but it is our world the world with which we are brought into closest political and commer cial relations — oi which this is true; it is not true of the teeming populations of Africa, save of those tribes that have received Christianity; of them it is true. It is not true of China, nor of India, nor of Persia, nor of Turkey to any great extent.
