The Science OF Making
Money.

A man who can make money in legiti-
mate business enterprises in times like
these. surely has his methods reduced to
a science. and yet strange to say millions
of dollars are lying Idle at the present
moment awaiting Investments and as
soon as the feeling of confidence becomes

that we are on the eve of a general re-
vival of business enterprises. which is
always reflected in the stock market, as
the securities dealt in on the exchanges
are bound to reap the benefits of a revival
of business which has for Il long period
remained Stagnant.
Investments made in certain stocks at
proper times show large and sometimes
enormous profits from u comparatively
small beginning. provided the purchase of
the same is made understandingly and
based on actual facts as regards their
true worth. 1t does not follow because Il
stock is low lat 1t is cheap. 1t may be
dear at any price. but If yon can get at
the actual facts an opinion can be
formed. and an investment made that will
prove very profitable in the end. This

readjustment of the ancient dogmas
to the new thought, or the revived
thought of the earlier ages.
We again note the Importance of
remembering this fact. We should
not be ca rried away by the idea that
every new statement. is a change
which carries with il the reliEquish-
ment of the old doctrines. Language
may mask ideas, but when the mask
is removed, the old idea will be seen
in its original form. In theology, in
recent years, many astute theologi-
ans are simply playing the game OF
"Old Friends With New Faces" 1t
is for this reason, among others, that
the Universalist Church, with its
we'll defined and harmonious system
of doctrines, definitely opposed to
the basal principles of the old ortho-
doxy, is still needed in the world,
and will continue its work, DIR. Ly-
man Abbott's advice to the contrar Y

Philena G. Stevens, also of Maine, and
she survives him, together with two sons,
Edwin Augustus and Alaric Bertrand.
Edwin, the elder son, is instructor of his
tory at Tufts, and also connected with
several historical societies. The younger
son is member of the present senior
class at the same institution.
Mr.. Start was not as widely known in
the West as in the East where be had
lived during the many years of his min
istry. but he will be remembered in Chi
cago and vicinity from his brief resi-
dence in this city, when associated with
DR.. Hanson in the publication of 1.-The
New Covenant" The business ven-
ture did not prove satisfactory,
and he returned to Boston. where
he afterwards engaged in the SER
vice Of the Massachusetts Convention
as Secretary. He was frequently mem
Der OF the Massachusetts delegation in
the sessions of the General Convention,
and became quite we'll known to our
Western clergy. and the attendants upon
the annual sessions of our general body.
The West will share with the East the
sorrow caused by his sudden taking off.
The funeral services of Bro. Start we're
held in the chapel of Tufts College on
Saturday. President Capen and Pro-
lessor W. r. Shipman we're the off :iat-
ing clergymen.

should make such issues. Ii it is
sharp play, it is foolish as we'll.
Now, how does it appear for DR..
Abbott to assume this position re-
garding church which has produced
some of the great preachers OF the
age, and really has led the van in
Scriptural Interpretation as accepted
by the advanced Christian thought
and culture? Is it not quite for
ward step for one man declare that
this body has finish I'd its work, and,
therefore, it would be we'll for it
to become defuuct at once? We
are reminded of old Horace, where he
speaks of the mountains quaking
and 10, a little mouse is born!
All this proves, with many other
things, that the Univer5alist Church
has not yet done its greatest work;
if it has broken the backbone of end
less punishment, it has a deal to do
in removing the rubbish of the doc
trine of the humiliation of the
wicked, making men feel that there is
no way of escaping their deserved
punishment, and that God is the All
Father, and, therefore, must have de-
signed the rescue of every soul and is
to work for that end, and that when
the famous preacher becomes more
evolved according to the doctrine of
evolution, he will declare with clear
ness for this grandest of all truths and
will join hands with it's advocates, in
stead of suggesting their assimila
ton. S. H. MoC.

was called to fill. He WAS an industrious
pastor, and the several parishes commit
ted to his care prospered under his min
istry. 1t may be said of him most truly
that. "he was good man and full of
the Holy Ghost and of faith" and
through his fundamentally during the
years of his ministry many people were
added to the church. He has filed pas
torates in various places in the West, but
his main work was done in Wisconsin,
where. with M. G. Todd, A. Q. Barry, E..
Garfield. H. d. L. Webster and others of
the pioneers of the past. he made Uni
versalism known and respected through
out the commonwealth. Churches wei Q
built under his ministry in several parts
of the State; the last one at Wausau,
where he had a pastorate for several
years. We must leave to the writer Of
more extended obituary, which will
soon appear. the record of his extended
ministry. We simply announce his
death this week, and hope soon to pub
lish an adequate tribute to his memory
from the pen of one of his older friends.
Up to the time of going to press, we
have not received any word as to the
funeral services of our departed brother.
We infer that they we're held at Fort
Atkinson on Sunday. and that the re-
mains will rest in the village cemetery.
Fro. Rogers lived for many years in Fort
Atkinson. and was instrumental in the
foundation of the Universalist parish
