men paroled at Appomattox Court
house, and since, upon the same terms
given TO Lee, cannot be tried for treason
so long as they preserve the terms OF
their parole. The action OF Judge I'm

injurious effect, and I would ask that he

INGERSOLL STILL DENuUNCING

That monumental iconoclast. Colonel
Robert q. lngelsol delivered what he
called IL Thanksgiving Sermon at
Chicago on Thanksgiving day, says
Lcslie's Weekly. He denounced
the church, and asked what it had done
Turing the last 1900 years. He made
the amazing declaration that it had de-
Stroyed, as far as it could. the best lit
erature of the world. and that it was an
enemy of art and literature. LII this is
the history of Christianity as Mr.. lnger-
soil reads it. he deserves to he pitied.
In stead ofd%estroying literature and art.
the church has preserved them. The
finest memorials of art and literature.
and the best examples of both. are pre-
served by the Christian church. aud
are found in countries where the
Oh r;stian religion is recognized. What
would we have had of these without
Christianity? What would barbarism
have saved of art or literature? If Col
onel Ingersoll will give us something
in place of that which he seeks to de-
stroy-that which is the hope. the COM
fort, and refuge of the civilized world
we shall listen with greater patience
to what he has to say. 1t iseasy to de-
stroy-it is not SO easy to build up.

this season of the year is Christmas:
Christmas festivities. Christmas le-
gends, customs, symbols. The leading
article of the December number of De-
morest's tells the story of "Christmas
Chimes all over the World" The sto-
ry is told from the standpoint of hu-
man interest, and it is illustrated with
eleven fine pictures of the homes of
the most famous bells.
The opinions of five we'll known New
York clergymen OH the authenticity
and value of tho Newly Discovered
Sayings of Jesus" form IL symposium of
far reaching interest to the Christian
world. Photographs of these clergy
men are also given in November De-

Christmas Ladies' Home journal.

The Christmas Ladies' Home Jour
nal opens with a page of pictures of
beautiful children, selected from thous-
ands of portraits. The children's holt
day greeting is u pleasing introduction
to the excellent articles pertaining to
the great festal season. One of these
Interestingly describes Christmas in
the palace at Potsdam, telling how the
German emperor and empress and the
royal children celebrate the day. There
are also two admirable short stories,
"Christmas at The Hollyhocks,'" and
"Christmas ut the Trimbles'."
A feature that will arouse widespread
interest is the first letters of a series
giving 1.-THE Inner Experiences of a
Cabinet Members Wife," They pre-
sent an inside view of Washington po-
litical and social life. as has never be-
fore been done in any magazine. The
letters will occasion much surprise. A
reading of the first installment makes
obvious the reason for withholding the
writer's name.
Practical articles on Christmas tell
of suitable things to make forgifts. and
detail games. amusements, etc. Mrs.
Rorer, in addition to her cooking les
son, has an instructive article on can.

of the illustrations is striking. and in
