battle, which has surged up on to
history's receding stairway like the
ocean tides. The humanity gospel
peers forth with a strange light in
the granduer OF the Hebrew Abram

Sanskrit Ved-law, and Names of the
STORED Helenes all give us beauti-
full glimmers of the doctrine that JUS
tice to the poor is the Righteousness
of God! The glimmer, however. is
like the pale aurora of a morn to

arc still the battle ground.
