cross. The death of Christ proves that
He made the claim ffor which He was
condemned.
Now to the man who will not be-
lieve in Christ's claim Of divinity, there
are two escapes open; the 6Ist is to
attack the testimony of Christ Himself;
the second is to attack the testimony of
His apostles. and especially the evan
gelists. In the first case you must SUD-
pose that Christ innocently fell into
mistake concerning Himself, or that lie
His nature and being: in other words,
that He was fool or a knave. A fool
or knave! Then away with Him!
Why give Him a thought, why cele-
brate this Christmas day. why call
yourself Christian people? Better
Mahomet, better Buddha, the voodoism
of the African. In the second case the
accusation is taken from Christ and
put on the apostles and evangellsts.
They have invented Christ. you say,
and have palmed Him off on us. Clever
men, indeed. who could deceive for
nineteen hundred years the cleverest
nations in the world. What benefit,
pray could they get from such a deceit?
They must have expected n benefit
either here Or hereafter Here in this
life what did they get? Labor, priva-
lions, sufferings, persecution and finally
violent death. Men do not uphold a
lie at such cost. Hereafter. what
could they expect from the Just God Of
heaven whom they preached, if they
were liars to the world about Him,
and substituted man in His place.
to assign for deception practced Gy
the disciples of Christ, and we must
conclude that the knowledge and por-
trait of their Master, which they gave
to the world are the knowledge and
portrait of Himself which He gave
them. They could not have imagined
and invented Him, for the character
Of Jesus surpasses mans ideals and
mans power Of Thought. The apostles
might have imagined and portrayed
human charactefi Jewish rabbi or
prophet, but theyucould not, especially
four different writer's working indie
pendently. have created the superhu-
man, the divine Christ. The inventor

The earth has 'beeni swept since the

the people Of the East. Henry VIII

NEWS FROM IRELAND.

One evening, the sun slowly fadiug
away.
Ger lona's verge saw st. Columb-
killc pray.
Nor dared he to turn his dim eyes to
the west,
To where lay his lost and loved Isle
of the Blest.
When the stranger drew round him
to list to his voice,
AS he prayed and he preached and no
babe them rejoice
The words of salvation came straight
from soul
That the love of his country had
sworn to control.
This eve, as he prayed and the sun
In the west
Slowly sank from his sight far
beyond the waves crest,

oh, how long.

How dear, in my youth, vert thou.

ment from thee!
All, What was Deaths sting to the

When the wild waves rang my hearts

Yet ever, oh Erin, my heart is with
thee.
Beyond the death-knell and sad song
OF the sea.
Forever and ever my idol thou art,
Though pride and my crime have DOOM
ed us to part.
Forever and ever, deep down in my soul
Beyond mine, beyond mans, beyond
earth's control,
hear thy soft songs, feel the breath

Floating DER thy green meadows and
through thy green trees
The songs of thy bards and thy wild
minstres' glee.
Than ought earth ever held are far

All. Erin. my Ireland: my love and
my pride!

years among men.
Have tried to forget thee-and deemed
1t sin
To grant thee one thought Of the mind
that was given
With my VOW and thy love, to the SER
vice of Heav'n-
But l pray. oh, my Ireland. that thee
I shall see
And come to in spirit when my tired
soul is free
And over and over my heart sings
it's song.
IN THE LAND OF MY EXILE, HOW
LONG. OH, HOW LoNG?"
Thus spoke in song, St. Cohumbkille
On bleak lona's shore
There doomed his earth-life to fulfill
And to toll forevermore.
Toll on, It's said, through weary years
Among a stranger clan,
By rocky mount and woodland mere.
This great and lonely man.
IT'S strange that hearts should break
for thee,
Oh isle Of song and fame!
We search thy tale of destiny
Then freely grant thy claiml
So strangely loved! So strangely sad:
So family sweet. the notes
Of song. and tales Of minstrelsy
That thro' thy history floats.
Thy harp hangs on thy ruined walls!
Where ancient ivy clings,
The while the ghosts of sacred years
Float, breathless round it's strings.
How can it melt in joyous song,
While thou so dreary art?
The string erstwhile so brave and
strong,
1t broke-to match thy heart!

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION.
Dignitaries OF the Episcopal Church Inr

to Our Social System

Was hing ton, Oct. aS.-The bishops
and deputies of the Episcopal conven-
ton united in joint session Saturday
to consider report from joint COM
mittee on Christian education. The re-
port gave in detail the educational
work in progress indirectly through
the public schools and directly through
church schools and colleges. The pub
lie schools were referred to as worthy
institutions, necessary to our social
system The work in them could be
advanced, the report stated, by having
teachers grounded in religious prin-
ciples, thus making the public schools
an ally of the church. The need of
church colleges in the north was
pointed out, the present ones being
local, small and without resources. A
tentative plan was submitted for join
ing the Episcopal colleges in an acad-
emic conference on the theory of the
great English universities having de
tached colleges.
