he was sought out by woman. whose
daughter was seriously afflicted with an
evil spirit, and others who had sore needs
which his power could supply, and who
found him In his seclusion. From the incl

practical lessons. which were elaborated
and illustrated. He said in part:

or less desire to be successful in some
thing and TO hold the respect and a6mira-
ton of their fellows. This desire is not
wicked or of sinful tendency in itself, but
the aim and purpose at which success is
directed, and The motive inspiring ambition
for admiration, determines the sin or
virtue of the ambitious act. Humility Is a
