In the October Century there is an arti-

Bismarck feelings toward the United

he could not but sympathiZe with his fell

were partly and in many cases entirely
deserted by their inhabitants. Labor be-
coming scarce and dear; American and
English agricultural machinery forced on
unwilling buyers who fretted under the
compulsory use of what they could not
easily manipulate: prices of farm prod
ucts no longer assured by the demands of
a home market, but subjected to the
fluctuations of a world market in which
the United States is the controlling
dealer-all these things gave him pain
and anxiety. He suffered too. along

To the Editor of The Times:
In the matter of decrease of religion,
bewailed by the Rev. Dr. De Costa, al
low me to say that, while there is de-
crease in attachment to dogma and in
speculation about things of which so
many are unknown, and not few abso-
lutely unknowable, still, there is increase
in matters of benevolence and humani-
ty. Practical religion in a vast number
of forms and in vast number of ways
was never greater. Never. perhaps. was
there so much personal kindness; to love
God supremely, and our neighbor as our
selves; this do, and we shall know the
eternal life. There is not so great cause
to lament as some may say: and more to
rejoice than some think. Let us count up
the good side of the column.
