liberal Christians The strength of the
great preachers has always been in
generating the conviction that they
spoke from nights above the world, and
that their message was from God, and
+ that the power that had rightful au-
thority over men, that was attested by
miracles, spoke to men through their
lips This much, at least, is certain;
the human SOUL demands a, deeper solu-
ton of the problems of existence, of sin
and suffering, of character and destiny
and providence, than can be found IN

AT least two of our Congregational
divines have been criticised of late, -
says the 'Congregationalist" of Bos-
ton, for discourses dealing with GER
tain great novels, but the adverse COM
ment comes in the main from persons
outside the congregations listening to
the sermons. We should think that a
minister, whose chief aim was to
preach the Gospel, might be trusted to
make use of whatever material would
further that end. More and more the
story appears to be the form of dis
course which appeals to the multitude
and which is often the vehicle of truths
that would never otherwise be grasped
No man of sense would devote fifty, or
even twenty-five Sunday evenings dur
ing the year to sermons of this char
acter, but an occasional sympathetic
discussion of story of the first order
by q minister well versed in general
literature and skillful in discerning its
relations to life is as legitimate and
may be as fruitful as expository or
doctrinal, or any other kind of preach
ing"
