children, are not under the permanent

This is the meaning of temples. This
is the gladness that has built affairs of
worship. Religion is the perpetual
servant of the race, because she knows
no limit to the possibilities of progress.
1 have been speaking of religion in
its widest sense as part of the uni
be remembered that all religions have
much in common. Indeed, their like
nesSeS are greater than their differ
ences. There are three great sub
and immortality. They differ in form
from the crudest notions of the Afri-
can savages to the highest contempla-
tons of the philosophic mystic, but
race. Then there are. two objective
ideas-sin and reconciliation. These
are also part of the common posses
sion of the race. These five convic-
tons are. the native quarries out of
which Bibles are written, and tenn
pies and affairs are erected.
The spiritual achievements of men
lead them to give higher expressions
to these fundamental conceptions
which are. part of their birthright as
children of God. AS Caesar demanded I
the treasures of Rome by the right of I
his conouests in Gaul, so men by vir-
tue of their past victories demand the
developments of religion. But every
secular. age is an age of transition.
Men cannot live by skepticism, or ma
terfalism, or positivism. The critical
is essentially the destructive era Men
have lived and achieved only in virtue
of their beliefs. This has been the
secret of the sweetness and richness
of life. So we can confidently predict
that the time of sloth and ignorance
and indifferentism must pass away,
and out of the decay of the old affairs
men will make room for, nobler and
finer forms of faith, and so they that
erred in spirit shall come to under
standing, and they that murmured

the Isolation of Music Mr.. Pratt
stated in the course of his paper that
music had never been fully recog-
nized, and that it had been isolated
from literature and the other arts
In manner which tended to en-
feeble it. He believed that there
was no argument in favor of fur
ther development of literature that
could not be brought to bear with
equal force with regard to music,
ana he thought we had arrived at an
age when people considered some
thing was needed beside a study of
those subjects which have so long
heId a place in our educational
schemes. The growth with regard
to music was more noticeable in the
lower than the higher schools, where
1t is still treated as a special sub
Ject, and thereby isolated. Progress

A. H. Candy, manager and partner
of Francis Wilson, has returned from
a trip abroad, and is at present busy
getting ready the production of the
opera by Sir Arthur Sullivan and Mr..
Burnand, THE Chieftain." This is
not an entirely new opera. 1t was Civ
en- about ten years ago at ST. Georges
hall in London by Mr.. and Mrs. Ger
man Reid in the form of a short OPP
eretta, which took only thirty min
utcs to perform. Its original name was
"Contrabandista. The authors have
used the central idea of the operetta
and have built it UP into a two-act
opera. Nearly all the old music was
discarded with the exception of two
or three songs. The opera was pro-
duced at the Savoy theater, in Londc1i.
