such. Its members have aslgood right
to the protection of government in wor-
Shipping God in the way they choose as
any other sect. If any other denomina-
ton should attempt like encroachments
they should be as earnestly resisted.
American citizens contend that it is the
duty of the State to provide for the edu-
cation of its children, and they will fight
as Cor their life for the right of the State
to control without the interference of any
church the education the State provides.
The sure way to success is, while stead
fastly maintaining this principle, to pro-
vide SO good schools that private and
parochial schools cannot compete with
them, and to choose on school boards so
able and fair-minded persons-whatever
may be their religious affiliations-as to
maintain the superiority of the public
school system. When such persons are
nominated for this service they are called
to the most important duties to which
patriots may be summoned. 1t may be
we'll questioned whether the State ever
calls its citizens to greater opportunities
or presents weightier claims to their sac
rifice in its behalf. And we are sure they
will be slow to turn aside from these
calls unless they can justify their refusal
by the most conclusive reasons"

When life's fitful dream is over,
And all our worldly cares shall cease,
And we seek a home celestial
In land of JOY and peace;
When we reach Gods heavenly kingdom,
Where no sorrow comes to mar,
Will the angels bid us enter
Through the gates that stand aiar?
VIII our loved ones come to greet us?
Snail we meet and know them there?
VIII they welcome us with gladness
10 their home SO pure and fair?
When we've crossed the cold, dark river,
When from earth we are afar.
How the soul viii thrill with rapture
If for us the gates shall stand ajar.
VIII the Glorified Redeemer

And no earthly grief can mar
The last sleep that knows no waking.

I'VE cannot understand the anxious
lear OF some devout yet timid souls lest
the Bible should be dethroned from it's
place IN the reverence of the world - ex-
claims the New York Evangelist (Presb.).
The anxiety SO frequently expressed lest
the foundations should be destroyed in
dlcates sad want of courage, or, what is
still worse, sad want of faith. But do
we really believe thu Bible to be the Word
of God? Then it cannot be DESTROYED.
The mountains may be removed, but the
Word of the Lord abideth for ever. All
the criticisms that are made upon it ONLY
serve to bring out more distinctly its
beauty and its power. 1t may seem al
most paradox, a contradiction in terms.
to say that the occasional discovery of
inaccuracies or discrepancies strength
ems rather than weakens our faith: but il
is true, for, as our readers must have OBJ
served, these discrepancies are in almost
every case lnfinitesimal in importance.
When we reflect that the great Hebrew
and Greek scholars of Germany and
Britain and America have been at work
upon the Old and New Testament for half
century, and have literally, to use an
expressive If not very elegant phrase,
.raked it as with fine-tooth comb and
found only errors so petty as these. we
ask In amaZement: is that all % These
are, indeed, but specks of sandstone in
the marble of the Parthenon; and the
book, that has borne an investigation to
which no other was ever subjected, shines
forth, indeed, like the temple on the Aero
polls, not only with undiminished. but
with increased radiance and splendor."

MANY churchmen will breathe a sigh
of relief" says the Living Church of Chi
cago (P. E.), ''at the news of the acquittal
OF DR.. Briggs at his recent trial for heresy.
There was rumor, which had an air of
probability, that upon being convicted
and dismissed from the Presbyterian
ministry the Professor and his friends
were likely to seek admission into the
church. Aside from the question of his
views on the subject of inspiration, escha-
tology and the like, there is growing
feeling that it will not rebound to the
lasting benefit of the church to convert it
into cave of Adullam. Every expert
enced country priest knows that acces-
sions to his parish growing out of dis
sensions in some neighboring religious
society are not of the most desirable
kind, and that his work is more likely to
be hindered than advanced by an in
crease of numbers which is due, not to
conviction that the teachings of the
church are true, but to discomfort and
faction in another community"
