THE MASTERS HERR? +?
A Tie 'sophist Who Says This
Is the Period for Elder
Brothers Aid.
At the Last Quarter Of Every Century
There Is an Effort to Promote
Things Spiritual.

Of unusual interest in this revival OF
Iheosophical thought was the lecture of
Miss Anne Bryce on "The Masters of
Wisdom" given before the San Francisco
Theosophical Society last night at the
Academy OF Sciences hall. Specially note
worthy to the lay mind was the sugges-
ton that this period in the course of the
centuries is peculiarly ripe for special aid
from the mysterious ''elder brothers" of
mankind. In this connection Miss Bryce
said:
Like all else in ma ture it is easier for the
masters 10 help mankind at certain periods
tnan at others. We are told that the lodge
always takes advantage of the last quarter of
every century to bring about the realization
OF things spiritual In place OF the dense mate
rial. AS we know that seeds planted at certain
seasons OF the year yield a far richer harvest
than at other times, SO the thought waves
sent out by the masters at the end of the ce n
tury bring about greater results and lift up
many souls to the point where they caa as
sist In carrying the spiritual truths through
the material age of the next century.
MOI only have we been helped during these
lasi twenty years on account of il being the
end OF the 1OO-year cycle, but it is also the end
OF 2oOo-year cyele-the first 5000 years of
the kan iuga, the black or iron age. The
eycies closing together has been q wonderful
opportunity Tor the world to take a step for
ward into the knowledge of the real or inner
man. Many nave taken and are taking this
step. The world is looking for more light.
They are restless-not content with what thev
were taught i'll chiidhoods days
We believe that many of the masters have
reached the point where they are no longer
obliged TO incarnate, but who voluntariiv
take hysicai dy with all its limitationsl
Tor the sole purpose OF helping us. What an
example for us to follow! What a privilege
to work for and with these unselish souisi
And we firmly believe that all men who are
striving TO lead pure and unselfsh life and
assist in forming the nucleus of the universal
brotherhood OF humanity for which the Theo
sophica Society was founded are surely work
ing for and assisted by these our elder
brothers-our brothers still, though lar in ad.
vance of us, and they only represent that
which is possible for you and me 10 become if
we but work unselfshly for ourselves. Then
we, too will have become perft cted man, a
wise one, master. Let US strive and ever
keep striving.

New Works. Greatest Scene.

New York's famous thoroughfare,
Broadway, has been the scene Of some
wonderful events. But the one scene
which still stands as the most remark
able, in point of enthusiasm, is Louis
Kossuth's famous ride up Broadway, in
1851. Kossuth had already seen and
passed through crowd of 100000 people
in his triumphal ride up the great thor
oughfare. The eliminating moment,
however, occurred when the great Hun
garian patriot reached the corner OF
Broadway and Ann street. The sight
that burst upon him staggered him for
the moment. In the open square directly
before him was massed together a quar-
ter of million of people, and when1his
vast concourse broke into a united cheer
Kossuth was fairly bewildersd. No
man saw this great event so we'll and
advantageousIy as did Parke Goodwin,
the veteran New York editor and KOS
suths closest friend in America. Mr..
Goodwin was with Kossuth, and for the
first time he will now tell the story Of
the marvellous event in the February
Ladies' Home Journal. The actual scene
at Ann street will also be shown in a pic
ture by De Thulstrup, showing Kossuth
in the carriage as the great scene burst
upon him.

in the house Of John Howard Payne
you almost expect to see an ancient
Egyptian stalk around the corner & and
Cheop's sacred pussy cat In hero
glyphic attitude oiiillsthe hearth. How
quaint how quaintsit is! Didn't hear
little Cinderella's laugh and see those g!
dear little plump hands clapped together
with Joy? And is that glow flooding
window and wall the silver ether that
floats around the fairy and dissolves,
slowly, in revolving, radiant rainbow,
into colors that the fairy takes and stars
in the blue of her eyes and the frank,
fresh cherry of her lips?
Really it is all so unreal that it frets
you to be told that that is a Revolution
airy musket hanging over the old, old
fireplace. You mistook it for a club that
those grand old Bible fellows brandished
when they went down into Egypt and
had a fight How pert and new 1776 is!
1t is sorrowful to think that after he
closed the latch of his old sweet home
and heard for the last time the clink of
the closing door and went out to face
the world, John Howard Payne had no
home.

war, and two long letters written from
the field by Grant himself and never be-
fore published. It will be fully illus
