This writer believes in infinite possibili-
ties Of evolution for the human soul. which
yet depend upon principles as simple as
those OF the transmission and refraction OF
light. He holds that man. BY bringing
himself into right relations with God
tina: is, by caring rather for the things
OF the soul than for material welfare or
the opinions OF others-may gain tfat
divine wisdom which reveals pure truth.
But, as q man must cast on cloth
ing ere ne night the sea- so the
seeker after truth must civest nimseit
OF all hindering personal desires and pre-
objections; he must nx mis- gaze upon the
end in view, and int must be outside sen;
