DR.. Lyman Abbott Tells Students That
Iheoionu Is Mot RELIGION.


"The Bible is not a book of theology.
and theology is not religion" declared
DR.. Lyman Abbott in a lecture before
the students of the Chicago Theological
Seminary. Religion is the life of God
in the soul of man." he continued,
while theology is what men think a.
bout the life of God in the soul of man.
What the layman comes to church for
is religion. not theology. Men come
to church and get the philosophy of
religion, and go away hungry DIR.
Abbott urged the students TO divorce
creeds except when they are means
to the end. Don't try to make Con-
gregationalists, Presbyterians, Baptists
or Catholics, but try TO make men," he
said. Il am glad the pulpit has lost
its power; glad the cloth has lost its
power, but the living presentation of
Gods word can never lose its full
force"
MRS. EDDY'S POSITION DEFINED.
In the March number of the North
American Review, Mr.. w. ID. McCrack-
an replies to the articles by Marx
Twain lately published in the same
magazine. In those articles the sin
cerity of the rank and file of the fol-
lowers of Mrs. Eddy was not question:
ed, but that of Mrs. Eddy was. On this
point Mr. McCrackan says: If the sim
cerity of Christian Scientists at large
is not questioned. why should that of
Mrs. Eddy be challenged, thru whom
has come to them what they UNDER
stand of Christian Science? The bond
of love and gratitude between Mrs.
Eddy and the multitudes who have been
healed, reformed and comforted by her
spiritual Interpretation of the Script
ures, grows more secure and real as
time goes on If any individuals, lack
ing proper understanding of her
teachings, have thought too much OF
her human personality, they have
either long since corrected this fault or
their own overwhelming sense of per-
sonality has been revealed to them as
a god to be abandoned. Mrs. Eddy's
life motive springs from her discovery.
The two can not be separated, any
more than Christian Scientists can be
seduced by any sophistries. from ae-
knowledging their Indebtedness to one
whom God has chosen in this age to
make known this good news to them.
In reply to Mr.. Clemens charge that
Mrs. Eddy claimed a special divine
commission, Mr.. McCrackan quotes
from an article by Mrs. Eddy in the
Christian Science Sentinel: Il have not

COUNTRY PREACHERS.

Now that the public has recognized
and allowed the claim of the rural
teachers to pay more nearly equal to
their deserts, it might with justice take
up the case of the country minister
A glance at the conference reports
showing salaries paid to the preacher
at the cross roads church will bring
the conviction that as class the
country minister is as lily paid as the
rural teacher. The apparent stinginess
of the stipend granted in some cases
is almost beyond belief. A section
hand would refuse it.
Like the rural teacher the country
preachers work is the hardest of his
class. He does the pioneer work. The
outskirts are his legitimate field. His
work lies among small and struggling
CONGREGATIONS. He breaches in the
school house and starves to add his
mite to the building of place to wor-
ship in. He pleads for his denomina-
tional college and begs mistakenly for
missionary funds and from his starva-
ton salary wrings the means to con-
tribute to these good works quite as
much as his most liberal parishioner.

Governor Richard Yates. of Illinois

denomination at the hands of the re-
publican party. His opponents in the
Rubernatorial race, however, are
among some OF the strongest men in
the party, although none of them ap-
pear to have as large following as
the governor. Richard Yates is a
very young man to be governor OF as
great state as Illinois, and although
the political convictions of this paper
is independent. we cannot but admire
the manner in which he has opposed
the dictatorial policy of the daily
press of Chicago. When Judge
Yates was elected the Chicago dailies
Immediately assumed the self.ap-
pointed task of selecting his appoint
ees for him. But the governor soon
gave them to understand that he
would make his own appointments,
and from that time they have fought
him and pursued him with venom
that is disgrace to the newspaper
profession. The people over the state

the facts that it is questionable
whether the governor has lost any
