Truth is Immortal.

Truth never dies. It is immutable and unchang-
ing the Deity. 1t is the only foundation
which to build. Founded upon this rock, the surg
ing pillows of revolution powerless to destroy.
Amid the c0ntending elements Of political and relig.
ious combatants, where the carried to the
blade and where the blade is dripping to the hlt in
crimson gore, whatever of truth exists with either
contending party, will survive the confusion and the
carnage of the battle hour. Silent, modestly but
| steadily it moves right on. If crushed amid the de-
| bris of human passion and cupidity it rises again
brighter and stronger for the baptism of blood.
few hours private interview with j. n. the phil
osopher of modern times, has suggested some
thoughts the beauty and power of truth, and the
position of the true philosopher and dispenser of
truth The Immortal j. N occupies unenviable
position far as the wisdom and philosophy of the
present political and religious organizations of tbs
world concerned. He eschews all external show
Money is Of little Importance to him. He requests
and receives free pass from point to paint and
speaks the truth lie it from his stand poi TT
without Partially, and without reserve. He is no
respector of persons. He is alike at home in the
South and at the North, and to both he breaches
charity for the other and with the scalpe Of truth
he makes broad and deep gashes into the diseased
condition of modern society and political Government.
Modest and unassuming child, in his social rea-
tions, he towers up in gigantic proportions he
folds the philosophy of TRUTH in its proud univer sal
cosmopolitan character. He is not appreciated by
the masses who have not arrived at his standpoint
Of interior development. Like blazing meteror he
passes through and electres the morbid conditions
of society, and prepares the way for more just and
equipoised condition OF tue elements of mentality.
The ages Of the shadowy past have revealed embodi
ments OF philosophy that were secuted prosecuted,
drenched with hemlock nailed to the cross. The
sacrfcia fires OF their martyrdom consumed the veil
THAT obscured their spiritual perception of truth,
that they after time enrolled their names upon the
scroll of the immortal gods step by step truth
cends the mount of final and perfect transfguraon.
As humanity rises above its primatve conditions o!

not comprehe nded by the wisdom of that age.
