uncle, who was not pleased with the
boys wandering habits. He was put
with surveyor, and while travelling
about became interested in the position
of the soils and rocks, and in surveying
about the coal mines and stone quarries
he had opportunity to further observe
the strata. He began classification of
the sandstones, marts, clays, sands,
chalks, and decided that each represented
a distinct epoch in the history of the
earth. He talked his belief so constantly
that he became known as Strata Smith"
He pursued his studies for twenty years
and prepared the first geological map
of England and Wales at pecuniary cost
and privation. The London Geological
society, in 1881, awarded him a medal 'in
consideration of his being a great original
discoverer in English geology, and es-

Famous Books

THE GREATEST THING IN THE
WORLD.
This story takes both theme and title
from I Cor. xiii, wherein Or. W love is
declared to be the greatest OF the three
Christian graces.
The author treats love as the supreme
good; and following st. Paul, contracts
it favorbly with eloquence, prophecy,
sacrifice and martyrdom. Then follows
the analysis: 1T is like light. Paul
passes this thing, love, through the
magnificent prism of his inspired intel
lect, and it comes out on the other side
broken up into it's elements"
THE spectrum of love has nine in~
gredients:
Patience-'Love suffereth long"
Kindness-tAnd is kind"
Generosity-"Jove envieth not"
Humility-"Love vounteth not itself, is
not puffed up
Courtesy-'Doth not behave itself un~
seemly."
Unselfshness -"seeketh not her own"
Good Temper-'Is not easily provoke
ed"
Guilelessness-"Th inketh no evil
Sincerity" Rcjoiceth not in iniquitys
hut rejoiceth in the truth
The author then declares that love
comes by induction-by contact with God;
that it is an effective love becau~e IIe
first loved u.s."
The closing chapter dwells upon the
lasting character of love Il. Cor. xiii, s.,
and asserts its absolute supremacy
What religion is, what God is who
