troubles.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
In the largest sense Of the word Chris
tianity. as far as it rests on the principle
I of the Golden Rule and the command to
| love ones neighbor as one'S self, has thus
far been the only thing that has made
modern life worth living, and on it rests
the only hope of a humane and successful
solution OF all the great problems that
still vex modern society. Modern legal
equity, social Justice, family affection,
public and private generosity charity
and philanthropy were never so potential
with the world as they are to-day, and
their spirit runs straight back to these
fundamental ethics of the founder of the
Christian faith. 1t is true that society
may seem to realize the Golden Rule in
practice sometimes but slowly and inn
perfectly, but if we compare the practical
humanity of France, England or the
United States with what it was century
ago. we snail see that not only the Golden
| Kule has been actually adopted and real
| lied to considerable extent in the gov
ernment of modern life, bur even that
! higher lift of the Christian ideal OF love TO
ones neighbor.
Springfield Republican
The brotherhood of man was never so
much a fact as to-day. The interests OF
the whole world were never so mutual,
the value of international friendship
never SO highly appreciated. The idea
that society is unit, a body of mem bers
whereof if one member suffers all suffer
together, was never so firmly grasped as
| now. Men never before have seen so
plainly that they must to some degree
love their neighbor as themselves if they
would secure their own good. Whether
| it will or no society is moving in the line
of this idea, which short-sighted students
pronounce impracticable, and which has
never been so truly and grandly stated as
in the Sermon on the Mount. In all ages
| individuals have tested this ideal of liv-
ing. and found it not only practicable, but
! joyous. and there were probably never so
many Christians of this truest type, of all
names and creeds, as now, and the simple
| process of increasing their number is the
sure way in which the morality of the
| Sermon on the Mount will be justified.

UNIVERSITY EXTENSION LECTURES

Next Tuesday evening at Grace-Street
Rantist church Professor +. w. Boat

n course Of six lectures on "French LIle-
rature in the Seventeenth Century This

sion lectures offered by the local chapter
OF Richmond College alumni, ana VIII
doubtless be largely attended. NO perioa
In the varied and brilliant literature OF
Fronce could fail to be attractive and In
ten,stlne. but the classic period. the age
of Louis XIV. surpasses all others IN
beauty and magnificence. The Sun
King" OF himself, would have made his
reign memorable, but the dramas Of Cor
nellie. Racine, and Moliere. the essays
of Pascal and La Rochefoucaud. and the
sermons OF Bossuet and Bourdaloue have
made IL glorious.
The topics OF Professor 8oatwIight's
lectures indicate that he will direct the
atteation OF his auditors mainly 10 the
great dramatists, but will also discuss the
leading writers OF classic prose. The
syllabus. which is the largest and fullest
yet published in Richmond, indicates that
the first lecture will be an Introduction
to French language, life and literature
previous 10 tUt Seventeenth century.
An interesting part OF this lecture will
be an account of the developm ent OF
Romance tongues from the Latin, ard the
peculiarties which affected the growth
of French. The second lecture will dis
cuss the great Corneille. and incidentally
explain the origin OF the French academy
and its rapid rise under Richelieu. The
topics OF the other lectures are as fol-
lows: 3. Racine and His Critic: 4.
"Molere" ;. THE Great Pulpit Orators" T;
6. Some Prose Writers and a Poet"
This course of lectures offers exceptional
advantages. not only TO those admirers
OF Frerch literature who have not had
time 10 become intimately acquainted
with the greatest authors. but especially
to studer0s OF French now In schools
where the literature Of France Is not
taught. Several teachers have already in
dicated a desire to bring all the men,
bers OF their senior classes. and others
may decide TO do likewise. The generous
terms to teachers and pupils favor such
an arrangement.
