Excerpt from Under Cotton Canvas: The Onward's Last Voyage God's work.* Philanthropic people overlook such prosaic matters as the most hopeless misery, squalor, ignorance and heathenism in the by-streets of our own great Cities, and search for a more interesting chance to show their humanity among anarchists and nihilists in Siberian convict-settlements, their charity among the warm and well-fed tribes of Africa, and their love of imparting knowledge and teaching Christianity among the cunning nativesof the Far East. In these circum stances it appears' hopeless to write anything merely bowing every-day life, of' any kind whatever, in the hope of getting a reader.
