HOPE FOR THE RACE.
Minister (sadly): ‘ I’m afraid that the Mongolian will never absolutely give up his gods and allow himself to rest permanently within the sheepfold of the beneficent influences of a Christian civilization. ’
Stockbroker (a member of the minister’s flock): ‘ Oh, come off! Here’s a Chinaman eloped from Sydney with another Chinaman’s wife, the pair taking with them £lOO belonging to the deserted husband.’ M. : ‘ Is that so ?’
S. : ‘lt is indeed.’ M. : * Then there is hope for the race yet.’
