Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Blessed Be Egypt: A Quarterly Paper
The revenue of the country has risen from in 1898, to in 1904, albeit the system of taxation bears very lightly on the people. All this shows that the country is advancing in material and moral prosperity.
Turn we now to the Christian aspect. What is being done to bring the Gospel of Light and Love before the people? Though debarred by reasons of policy (into the pros and cons of which it is not our purpose to enter), from allowing full free dom to the Christian Missionary to evangelize among the Mos lems of the Northern zone, these restrictions have been so far modified in Khartoum and Omdurman, as to permit of the establishing of Mission Schools, and of the sale of Bibles. An account of the work, carried on in those towns will be found in the Autumn Number of this Magazine, under the heading, c.m.s. Work in the Soudan. Unfortunately, the Medical Mission work is at a standstill for want of a qualified doctor.
