pEsroILING MEMS SOULS.
Another route that Satin in his sctire
travels is apt to take Is for the despciliDR
of the peoples souls. 1t does not pay hiu
merely to destroy the b-dies Of men and
women. Thoee bodies would soon be & NJ
anyhow; but great tIeasuns are involved
in this Satanic excursion. On this route
he meets a man who is aroused by some
thing he has sen in tie B BILE ard Sa'sn

is an imposition; it has been deludlpg the
world for centurie'; do rot let 1t dtlude

Koran Of the Mohammedan or the Shssta
of the Hin6oo, or the Zsnda-Ves'a Of the
Persian"
And so with spite and an acuteness
aud q velocity that have been gaining for
six thousa and years, he ranges up and down

ANTHEM FOR REQUIEM.
But. blessed be to God. may substitute
