How to Overcome.

Did you ever notice that when some of
the strongest men in the Bible failed
they almost always failed on the strong
est point of their character? Elijah was
noted for his boldness, and Jezebel
scared him out of his wits. Moses was
renowned for his meekness, humility,
and gentleness; yet he became angry and
killed that Egyptian; he was angry, and
said, "Muet l bring water out of this
rock, ye rebels?" God kept him out of
the Promised Land because he lost his
temper. II you think you are meek, it
is good sign that you are not. Peter
was one of the boldest of all the disci-
pies, but when one little maid looked at
him and said, you are one of his dis
ciples,' he began to curse and to swear,
and to say that he was not, and down he
fell. John and James were noted for
their meekness and gentleness, and yet
they wanted to call fire down from
heaven to consume a town in Samaria.
Do you not see that man is complete
failure away from God? But he that is
in you is greater than he that is in the
world. When Jesus Christ on the cross
said, ut is finished" it was the shout of
a Conqueror. He had fought and over.
come the world. and if l have not, it is
the height of madness for me to under
take to overcome.-D. L. Moody.

be photographed, in which connec.
ton 1t was for long time thought that
her name was Jean Ingelow," which she
candidly signed to her work, was a nom
de plume and many people were set by
the ears to discover the real identity of
the author. in many cases it taking them
longer than IL she really had in the first
place signed pseudonym.
In her youth it was said that the poet.
ess was not regarded as a infant phe.
nomenon and that nothing was espec.
tally noticeable about her except her
wandering off along the coast, where she
loved to sit in lonliness and watch the
sea.
AT her death Miss Ingelow was II
years old and was living in little cot.
tage at Kensington. where, with her
brother, who had remained a bachelor
all his life, she passed her days sur
rounded by the beautiful greenery-
screened gardens attached to the lodge
and in which, it was said, it was her
greatest pleasure to roam. The conser-
vatory is said to be as large again as the
little cottage, and her favorite amuse.
ment was to wander through the sweet.
scented aisles of this and watch her
little pet birds at play.
OF late years she has passed from
public mind and not many recalled the
sensation her early work created.

JEAN INGELOW is NO MORE.

London, July 20.-Miss Jean Ingelow.
the distinguished poet and novelist.
died in London last night. She was in
her 77th year.
Jean Ingelow was more widely known
as a poet than as q novelist. Her first
work appeared in 1853 and Immediately
created furore in the literary world.
being ranked by many critics of the day
above Longfellow's and Tennyson's
work.
She was a matured woman at the time,
being above 33 years old, and it was
noted that all her poems had quaint,
tender note of sadness in them, which
Immediately raised the belief that she
had been disappointed in love in her
youth. However. whether the tender
passion ever held sway within her heart
was never known and by some was never
believed. They explained that it was
not love which dictated the strain Of
sadness found throughout her work, but
the many years of her childhood spent
in the quiet. Unconditional life Of the
Boston home off the Lincolnshire coast.
A ballad. which was published early in
her career and which fascinated the
literati of the time with its bizarre meter
and gentle tactful impulsiveness of de-
scription, was High Tide OFF the Coast
OF Lincolnshire" And this sounded the
keynote to her character.
In 1887 she published second volume
of poems. after which they came at ir-
regular periods. but always were sought
for with avidity by publishers. Miss
Ingelow was regarded as the peer of Mrs.
Browning. her fame resting alone upon
her poems. Her work as a novelist at
tracted not so much attention, despite
the fact that the publication of her first
novel, "Off the Skellige," was eagerly
awaited.
During later years her verse was kept

Sequel to "Our Liberal Movement"

erts Bros 1897.

Sequel to "Our Liberal Movement"
By Joseph Henry Allen. Boston, Rob-
erts Bros. 1897.
We have here sequel to a former book;
it contains first, a revised, and then, men,
orabilia of 1.-The Liberal Movement" 1t
is the work of one of its most loyal and
consistent veterans, glancing over the
field of many hard fought battle, from
which almost all the comrades of his own
generation have departed. 1t is unspeak-
ably beautiful and pathetic to see this
brave heart, and true eye, looking after
the great men who have left few success
sors, lovingly and fearlessly dwelling on
the traits of character by which even
strangers may compel these prophets to
rise and be seen as they really were.
The field is reviewed at an hour when it
is difficult to tell whether the issue is VIC
tory or defeat. Yet there is no evading
the facts neither are there investives of
despair or prophecies of evil. Liberal
ism is not as light of heart as it was fifty
years ago - ''How heavy and quick the
shadows fall ON that fair vision!" says
our author.
We account ourselves happy who saw
that rare group of men, of which Mr..
Allen is by no means the least-either in
character or service.
But as we go from name to name-Clarke
Eliot, King, Weiss, Knapp, Hill, Wilson,
rockingham, we note that they and others
mentioned elsewhere had all that charm
and skill in courtesy, that high mind and
large heart, peculiar to the Christian
gentlemen.
They and their work were alike the
consequence of Christianity. They learned
to love truth, freedom and moral courage
at Christ's cross and in Christ's church.
Christianity made them the men they
were before German influences" or lib
eral ideas" had challenged its supersti-
tions, and false story and mistaken dogma.
This is penult chapter of the Liberal
Movement. "The Sequel" will tell us if
the Liberal Movement produces such men
as these; if under its auspices the church.
es are as faithful, as christlike, as con-
secrated to high and holy ideals and enter
prises.
The final appeal is not to history, not to
truth of statement, not to numbers. but
to ''fruit," and the fruit of all such move
ments is men and women. Here are the
men who were born of the Christian
church! They were great, fearless, low
ing, beloved. If they had not been nur-
tured as they were, but left to grow up
INTENDED and unframed, although within
church walls, we had had no liberal move
ment such as this book describes. 1t is
their offspring. wisdom is justified of
her children. - The question is, what share
wisdom had in its paternity. 1.-THE Sequel'
will show, 'for by their fruit shall ye
know them" r. A. GRIFFIN.

together in the future world on terms
of the purest fraternal equality.
These, then, are important points
wherein the rich and poor and all
other classes of men must meet to-
gether before the Lord. And they
certainly ought to be duly and care
fully considered, and exert their own
natural influence in presenting just
view of all the distinctions among
mankind appertaining to the present
existence. They should teach us to
form just and correct estimate of
our condition, our merits and our
privileges here upon earth, and to
rely, with suitable gratitude and
confidence and resignation, upon the
wisdom, the power and the munifi-
csnce of the supreme creator. They
should teach us humility in our feel
ings and our department, and admon-
ish us to avoid the vanity and the
allurements of mere useless artificial
distinctions. While we may lauda-
bly, aim at distinguished excellence
in wisdom and virtue, we should still
remember that with all our attain
ments, we can merit none of the rich
spiritual blessings which God freely
and equally bestows upon all men.
May our hearts be instructed and
comforted with the solemn truth that
the rich and the poor meet together
and the Lord is the maker of them
all
