Isaiah, in my tezt, i1timased the shsre

emotion roll more easily that way than
in straight liaes. SIX Thousand years
ago God fang this world cut oE his T;gct
hand, but be did not throw il cut Ia q
straight line, but cur7iliRe:r, WITH a
leash Of love holding il so SIS to bring
it back again. The world started IRON
his hand pure and Edenic. It has bean
rolling on through regiors OF moral .ce
and 6!stempsr. Row long it will roll
God only knows, bat i Will in due time
make complete circuit snd come bsck
to the place where il started, the hard
oiGod, pure and Edenic.
The history Of the world goes in s
ciIcle. Why IS it that the shipping II
our day is improving 60 rapidly? A
scientific shipbuildeE says IS because
men are initiating IN some respects
what the small wits deri6e, the Old
model Of Noah's ark, not as We see it il
old time pictures. but as it really Was
according to the account given. Gres:
ships have We now, but where is the
ship on the sea today that could out
ride deluge in which the heaven anG
the earth were wrecked, landing 81 tie
passengers in safeay-tWo Of esch kind
Of living creatures, hundreds Of thous-
ands Of pieces.
Pomology will go on with its achieve
ments until sitter ms2y centuries the
world Will have piums anu pears equal

the Downipgs ard Mitohells Of the
world have done their best in tie far
future the art Of gardening will core

the makers of coloyea glass go ca m
proving, they may II sore centuries be
sble 70 make something equal to the
cast window Of YORK wir'suer, which
was built in the yeEr 1890. We are
six centuries behind those sctIsts. but
the world must keep OF toiliIg Until i
shall make the connlste circuit ard
coma up to the skill OF tbose viry men.
If the world continues TO improve II
masonry, We shall have after swhiie,
perhaps after the advance Of centuries,
mortar equal to that which l sagin ths
wall Ct an exhumed English .ci'y built
in the time Of the Remsas, 500 years
ago. that mortar today IS good as the
day in which it was made, having out
lasted the brick sad stone. ! say sfier
hundreds OF years masonry may advance
to that point.
If the world stands long erougo, w
