nature and sources of salvation. 1.-The
old idea Of Jesus" he said "was not so
much his life and example, as his suffer

his life. He is a source of salvation by
virtue of his revelation of the possibili-
ties of humanity. He saves by the truth
he taught. by the life he lived. Saliva
ton is manhood, womanhood, carried to
its best estate"
The Portland (Mich.) Review of Nov.

moval to Eagle, says: "Mr. Goodell has
been pastor of the Portland church for
the past five years, and during that time
has proven himself a conscientious,
earnest AID faithful minister of the
Gospel. By practicing in his daily life
the Christian principles he taught from
the pulpit he has won the esteem and
good will of our people, who will regret
to learn of his resignation. Rev. and
Mrs. Goodell and their daughter will
leave us with the best wishes of many
friends"

JAMES II. SWAN, OF CHICAGO.

If anything better can happen to one,
in respect to ones locality, than being
born and brought up in New England, it
is being born in New England and trans
planted early to some favorable portion
Of the West. James H. Swan, the sub
iect of this too brief sketch, owes his
nativity and his boyhood to Connecticut;
for the rest Of him he is indebted largely
to Illinois. He was born at Had6am, on
the 23d of November. 1924. From 1924
to 1894 we count seventy years. and forty
of these, more or less, Mr.. Swan has
spent in Chicago, where he now resides

THE drift to Episcopal Unitarian
ism" is something not entirely new, but
it is attracting attention among the dig
nitaries of the Episcopal Church. Bish-
OPP Gillespie is evidently aware of the
existence of such drift and says vehe-
mently. addressing his Episcopal con-
stituency. Speak out boldly and say
what is the attitude of the Church with
regard to this heresy and schism at our
affairs" If there is such thing as
episcopal Unitarianisn" it would be
we'll to have it unveiled The Unitari-
anism that can swallow the prayer book
and digest the thirty nine articles is en-
titled to high rank as an example of the
illogical assimilation. We hope Bishop
Gillespie will succeed in unwilling all
such Unitarian Episcopalians. They
should be hunted down and hunted out.

1T is evident from the London ad
dress that Mr.. Stead considers that Chi
cago has no exclusive claim to signal
wicke1ness and that his own London
stands in full as much need of his hu-
manitarian campaign as our Western
metropolis. One formula in the address
was admirable. He advocated 1.-The
union of all who love for the service
of all who suffer" On this platform
Christians of every name may meet
and work for the redemption of Lon
don and Chicago and all mankind.
Mr.. Stead embarked that there we're

IellglOn is Impossible; therefore there
can be no record of such a religion.
A miracle, an event not to be &C
counted for on natural grounds, can
not be; therefore there can be no
trustworthy record of such an event.
These two prepossessions or preaffir-
nations divide the critics and deter
mine their criticism. One school
goes to the record to find there a
supernatural account of supernatu-
raj religion and criticises the record
in the interest of this theory. If the
facts of the record do not seem to
sustain this theory, they must be
made to sustain it.
The other school goes to the re-
cord persuaded that there can be no
trustworthy account of a supernatu-
raj religion and if the facts of the re-
cord do not seem to sustain this the
DRY, they must be made to sustain
it; if the record seems to give an ac-
count of such a religion, it must be
rejected or criticism must make it
tell different story. In very much
of what is known as the Higher Crit
cism, whoeverreads between the line,
can see more or less distinct traces of
one or the other of these theories
and before criticism can claim to be
science, or receive tie unquestioned
confidence of thoughtful people, she
must purge herself of both of these

Speaking roughly, quart Of oys-
ters contains on the average about
the same quantity of actual nutritive
substance as a quart Of milk or IL
pound Of very lean beef or a pound
and half of fresh Goldfish or two
thirds of pound of bread. But
while the weight Of actual nutri-
ment in the different quantities of
food material named is very nearly
the same, the quality is widely diff
ferent. That of the very lean meat
or Goldfish consists mostly of what
are called in chemical language pro-
tein compounds, or flesh formers"
the substances which make blood,
muscle, tendon, bone, brain and
other heterogeneous tissues. That Of
the bread contains but little of these
and consists chiefly of starch, with r
little fat and other compounds,
which serve the body as fuel and
supply 1t with heat and muscular
power. The nutritive substance Of
oysters contains considerable of both
the flesh forming and the more es-
pecially heat and force giving ingre-
dents Oysters come nearer to milk
than almost any other common food

with material to build up its parts,
repair its wastes and furnish it with

nearly the same. Exchange.

1t is now found that in the art OF
etching photographs on glass very
satisfactory result may be secured by
covering the surface with a solution
of gum made sensitive with bichro-
mate of potash and printing the same
under a negative After the image
has in this manner been produced, it
is busted over with minimum or red
lead, and tho red picture which is
thus obtained is fixed and burned ac-
cording to the usual process. The
easily soluble red glass which comes
from this method is treated with
strong sulphuric acid, when a white
matte design Is produced, and the pic
ture appears by transmitted light us

line by German artists are described

Tho Evil Effects Of Ms'ticntIng Paper H.
= Illustrated yan Old Story.
In the time of Charles XII Of Swe-
den the private secretary of Count
Goertz, then minister to England,
was strongly addicted to the habit of
chewing paper. Goertz had made
the young mans acquaintance on
Journey to Courland. He was the
son Of landed proprietor named
Buehren. Count Goertz took him to
Stockholm and gave him place in
the cabinet. At first the young Sec
rotary chewed only white paper, but
soon acquired liking for paper even
that had l,een written ON.
A peace treaty had been formulat-
ed between Russia and Sweden,
which the members of the assembly
forced Charles MI to accept The
basis of the latter was a treaty
which both states had agreed upon
with regard to Finland. The origi-
nal of this treaty was given by Count
Goeltz to his young secretary. When
it was called for by the assembly, it
could nowhere be found. The as
sembly believed that it had been
destroyed by Goertz in order to over
throw the peace policy and give
Charles XII a chance to 60 to war.
Goertz was arrested, when his score
tary came forward and confessed
having masticated tho document.
He was tried and sentenced to death.
The king would gladly have pardoned
him had he dared in the face OF the
angry assembly, but he gave him an
opportunity to fee from the country.
Buchren went to Courland with
letter of recommendation to the duke
from Minister Goertz. The latter, be-
lieving that his severe punishment
had entirely cured him OF the bad
habit of chewing up documents, APP
pointed the young man secretary to
his superintendent When the duke,
who was very eXtravagant in his ex-
penditures, was notified by his su-
perintendent of the hopeless condi-
ton of his finances, he asked for a
statement of his affairs, and the
young secretary was intrusted with
all the bills, etc, to make up the
statement. He again succumbed to
his evil habit and chewed up one Of
the most important receipts among
the dukes papers. In his despair he
sought mercy at tho hands Of the
beautiful duchess, Anna 1vanovna,
the niece of Peter the Great, and she
intcrccled for him with the duko.-
