The REV. THos. j. LATHRoP discours-
es of DIR. Dodge's Purpose of God'under
the symbolism of evolution; and in doing
30 remarks that the word evolution"
does not, as he remembers, occur in the
book. This fact is a new title to public
regard. No word ie so overworked as
this same evolution. Every writer who
has any load to carry packs it on the
back of the theory of evolution. The
term is taken out of its original meaning
in science and made to do duty every
where. We have the evolution of art
and business in general. and OF each
particular industry and enterprise.
Fashion, amusement, book. keeping. FIVE
o'clock teas, neck-ties, orders of wor-
ship, advertisements. bicycles. visiting
cards, journalism, vivisection, the boss
and the crank. each and all are daily
described as in process Of evolution.
That an author should, in such circum-
stances, write treatise on theology and
get along without recourse to the favo-
rite term. must be set down as signal
triumph of self-restraint.
In the sharp competition between
publishing houses there is temptation
to men whose position gives their work
certain commercial value, to rush into
authorship, particularly in the line of
textbooks. 1t is in this way, we must
believe, that President Andrews of
Brown University was persuaded into
writing a history of the United States.
There was no call for the work, except
the call OF the publisher who wished
history to put into the market in com.
petition with several others. President
Andrews, as the event proves, had few
qualifications for such a task. He is a
master neither of good English style
nor of American historical literature.
The work he has produced is in no sense
up to the demands of the theme. II he
employed Sophomore to write out the
history, and write in the eloquent pas
sages," he should have edited the work
himself. But plainly it was not edited.
Even President Andrews admirers are
forced to damn his work with faint
praise.
We rise to remark to our esteemed
contemporary, the New York Evening
Post. that the supercilious tone in which
it permits its "young man" to speak ha-
bitually Of "even the religious edi.
tore" subtracts some pennyweights from
the value Of the endorsement it occasion

ONE of the most prolific as we'll as one
of the most versatile authors of the pres
ent day is Mrs. M. o. w. Oliphant. AS
novelist, an historian and biographical
writer, she has been distinct and a
positive success. Her novels have been
a recognized feature of the best English
literature for many years and their popu-
larity has not diminished. Although
Mrs. Oliphant is not master of plot
construction. her novels contain very
biographical writing that Mrs. Oliph-
ants literary gifts appear at their best.
The biographies of ST. Francis of Assist
and of Count Charles de Montalembert
are striking examples of her sympathetic
penetration attaining happiest results in
the delineation of characters in which
religious fervor rose high and strong.
Mrs. Oliphant has gained high praise
from critics for "The Literary History of
England in the End of the Eighteenth
and Beginning of the Nineteenth Cen
tury."
In some of her latest novels Mrs. Oil
pnant has given freer rein to her un-
derlying mysticism. "a Little Pilgrim
in the Unseen is fantastic story of a
happy spirit content to roam in her new
world. "Old Lady Mary" is specula-
tive study of spirit who desires to come
back to earth to right wrong once
done, and who finds that after she has
come back she cannot communicate with
beings still in this life. Neither of these
is equal in strength or fascination to
1.-THE Beleagured City, which tells of the
invasion of an old French town by the
countless souls of all its departed citi-
zens. and the expulsion of the living.
The volume of work turned out by
Mrs. Oliphant is remarkable. Scarcely
a year has passed since she began to
write without a three volume novel
coming from her overfowirg mind, be-
sides continuous lesser contributions to
periodical literature. She edited Black
woods Foreign Classics for English
Readers" and herself contributed vol.
umes on Dante and Cervantes. A list of
her novels--of which she has written
more than forty--can scarcely be given
here. Her first work of fiction was
called Passages in the Life of Mrs.
Margaret Maitland. of Sunnyside." and
was published before she was twenty
one years old Its success encouraged
her to write more and the result has
been to secure for her high reputation
wherever English is read for nicely of
detail in narrative. keen delineation of
country life aud character, especially
among Scots, an exquisite sense of hu-
NOR.
Mrs. Oliphant is a Londoner, to borrow
Mr. Bowker's phrase, only as the Queen
is.r for she lives at Windsor, near the
castle. Her maiden name was Margaret
Oliphant Wilson. and she was born at
Wallyford. near Musselburgh, in Midlo.
THAN, in 1923. The high. even quality
OF her work is perhaps more remarkable
than her tireless industry, in view of
the fact that she has worked steadily
through great SORROWS brayely borne
ard heavy responsibilities cheerfully ac.
cepted, which, il known. would make her
dearer than before TO those who know
her only through her books"

THE HOMECOMING
BY MISS FRANCES CHENEY.

AS when happy household band,
Who from a narrow house has come
To enter in the loveliness
And sunshine Of brighter home;
Rejoice with happy, thankful hearts
And pray that love may glorify
The stately home that rises fair
Beneath smiling sunny sky;
So we. with voices glad and free,
And swelling, happy hearts have come
To consecrate with JOY and praise
The beauty of our dear new home.
What memories cluster round hearth
Where life meets love and Joy and pain,
With little children's laughter sweet,
As merry, jubilant refrain!
Within our sacred temple walls
The larger brotherhood will find
The balm of rest for weary feet,
The gift of light for eyes once blind.
Here pain will bring its throbbing woe,
Here Joy will lift smiling face,
And sunshine from the Fathers
throne
Will linger round the holy place.
II in the busy whirl of life
The strong, glad hearts of hopeful youth
Forget their lofty dreams of God,
Their visions of a stainless truth;
Here. touched by everything love
A light will shine on storm and stress
Their hearts will learn this sweetest
word.
The noblest souls have lived to bless.
From sacred music's melting tone,
From lofty words Of praise and prayer,
From Christian faith and hope and
love.
Young hearts will learn to conquer care.
And as the gracious harmony
And beauty of our temple bright
Awake the love of loveliness,
The yearning for divine light;
Before our longing eyes will rise

derived from Roman law has given
rise to the governmental theory of
atonement. The dualism of the re-
ligion of the Persians is seen in the
doctrine of personal devil as taught
by the Evangelical churches. The
teaching of the Christian church that
hell is local underground habita-
tion for lost souls is of heather orig
in. A careful study of ethnic relig-
ions will show the student of compar-
ative theology that Christianity has
absorbed much truth, and some error
from the older religions. Christian
ity is superior to all other religions in
that perfect adaptation to the nature
and wants of man which is destined to
make it universal. Through its mis-
sions it is now reaching nearly all the
nations of the earth, and is revealing
it's power to educate and improve, to
elevate and save all the races with
which it has come into permanent
contact. tits destined to be the uni
versal religion.
1t is superior to all other religions
in the fact that it is more progressive.
1t is the only progressive religion.
All the ethnic religions are station
ary, and SO is the civilization of the
peoples which they control. The
nations under their influence stand
still. They do not stimulate man to
make intellectual, moral, social, com
mercial and scientific progress.
Christianity is progressive. The
only progressive nations are Christian
nations. There is no standing still
under the influence of Protestant
Christianity. 1t is superior to all
other religions in the fact that it is
the only religion that fits man for a
pure form of civil and religious lib
erty. The Christian nations are
largely free and they are the only
free nations. Under all other religions
governments are despoticj under the
influence of Christianity they are free.
Even where they are monarchical in
form they are largely free in fact.
Republicanism and Democracy live
and grow nowhere else on Gods
green earth today only in Christian
nations and among Christian people.
Christianity is the friend of freedom,
the Christian church is fountain of
liberty.
1t is superior TO all of the ethnic
religions in the fact that its influence
is more favorable to the study and
development of science. The only
truly scientific nations of the world
today are Christians. The inductive
sciences had their origin in Christian
countries and under Christian influ-
ences. The only people that success
fully cultivate the sciences today are
Christian people. Christian missions
have done more to advance scientific
knowledge than any other one insti-
tuition. No other organization on our
| globe has done so much to foster
science as the Christian church-no
other organization has given as much
money to endow schools of literature
and science, art and morals.
