From Gerald MRssey's Lecture on
the Devil.

II is pitiable for you to pray to God
for His kingdom to come on earth when
you are doing all you can to prevent it.
You were sent here to work for that pur-
pose, aud the reason It cannot come IS
because you stand IN ths way, merely
standing and praying With folded hands.
The orthodox are responsible for helping
the devil; their false beliefs have been
utterly opposed TO progress. Is Chris
tianity Christs likeness2 Instead OF
that it is but bastard Judaism. II is
the apotheosis Of self,each man heping to
save bis cowardly self by the sacrifice
Of another. Christians get rich by
grinding other people down, and then
hope 70 be saved by another sacrifice
made hundred years ago. You build
comfortable houses for broken down
paupers 10 die in, but you leave them to
come 10 this condition, breeding this
disease which you treat 50 generously.
Surely no human being has been
so much misinterpreted as Jesus Christ.
He came not TO preach a sermon, not TO
vritn a novel, but TO live lite, a HE

selectmen conceived the idea that gilt

the proposition in town-meeting, 1t occa-

PERSISTENCE OF EARLY IMPRESSIONS IN
OLD AGE.-The impairment of the memo
ry in old age commonly shows itself in
regard to new impressions those of the
earlier period of life not only remaining in
full distlnctness, but even it would seem
increasing in vividness, from the fact that
the eye is not distracted from attending to
them by the continued influx of impress
sions produced by passing events. Tn
extraordinary persistence Of early impress
sons, when the mind seems almost to have
ceased to register new ones, is in remark
able accordance with law of nutrition |
have formerly referred to. 1t is when the
brain is growing that the direction of its
structure can be most strongly and per-
slstently given to 1t. Thus the habits OF
thought come to be formed, and those nerve
tracks laid down which las the physiologist
believesl constitute the mechanism of asso-
citation, by the time that the brain has
reached its maturity and the nutrition of
the organ continues to keep up the same
mechanism in accordance with the demands
upon its activity, SO long as it is being

period of vigorous manhood. the brain, like
the muscles, may be taking on some ad-
dItlonal growth, either as a whole or in
special parts new tissue being developed
and kept up by the nutritive process, in
accordance with the modes OF action tC
which the organ is trained. And in this
way store OF " impressions or 81 traces
is accumulated, which may be brought
within the "sphere of consciousness
whenever the right suggesting-strings are
touched But as the nutritlve activity
dlminishes, the waste" becomes more
rapid than the renovation; and it would
seem that while Ito use commercial an
alogy) the " old-established houses " keep
their ground, those later firms, whose bass
is less secure, are the first to crumble away
the nutrltive activity, which yet sufice'
to maintain the original structure, moi
being capable of keeping the subsequen
additions to it in working order. Thi.
earlier degeneration of later formed struct
ures is general fact perfectly familiar t,
