VIRGIN BIRCH NOT ESSENTIAL.
Il was declared by several speske.s ;,
and applsuded by the delegates, at the
twenty-6th annual Baptist Congress, in
session in Baltimore yesterday, that be
lief in the Virgin birth Of Christ was not
essential to Christianity, Rey. DR.. j..
W. Phillips, Of Binghsmton, n. I.
said:
"The doc.rine of the virgin birth in
these times is no1essential to q true
Christian life, IS Christ, the Saviour OF
mankind, trsnscended His birth, no mat
ter ia what msuuer Hs came into the
world, and that hs should be loved for
the good that He had bestowed upon
mankind"
Rev. DR.. George A. Ferris, Of Pails-
delpbis, touched upon the fact that Mar
tin Luther considered it significant that
Christ, dnring His whole life on earth
among men, never once referred to His
! mother ss virgin. Again, be called at

Preparedness for the coming Of Christ,
While il Luke II ~, as-er ed all sas ~
readiness, sucL differences causing q
doubt among many rs to whether Mary,
the mother of Christ, was really virgin.
Prof. Fred l.. Anderson, of New ton
Center, Mass, said:
admitting that there is q disparage-
ment between Matthew and Luke, 1t
does not make null and void the fact
that Christ WAS of virgin birth. 1t must
be considered that The exact manner in
which Christ came into the world was
not known for certainty at the period
that Matthews gospel was written, and
that definite knowledge had been given
10 the world regarding our Saviour's
birth when Luke wrote bis gospel. AS
far as ia known something like five years
interyened between the writing OF the
Two gospels, aud the church has accept
ed the facts pertaining TO Mary and
Christ as related in Luke"
When Professor Andersen concluded,

that he had never seen a more queenly
| pair-Joan respondent in her girlish
strength and beauty, Theresa still in
| the ripe glory of womanhood. There
was a gentler light than before in the
elder woman's eye, and she cast an
almost deprecating glance upon Joan.
For at the first sound Of her approach
the girl had stiffened visibly, and now,
with a formal word as to the sick
mans condition and cold bow to
! Conrad, she moved away
Theresa watched her a little sadly
as she passed behind the deep curtain.
Then she sighed, and turning again to
the bedside she looked long at the
young man without speaking.

A moment later he was leaping
down again toward the shore, taking
his longest strides, and sending the
pebbles spraying out in front and on
all sides of him. He stopped and
found the body of man, tall, we'll
formed and of manly figure He was
bareheaded and stripped to his
breecheS and underwear.
Boris stopped and laid his hand
upon his heart. Yes, so much was
certain. He was not dead.
Boris took a handful of small peb-
bles and threw them up at lighted

grizzled hair blown out like a misty
aureole about his temples.

They carried the body into the great
hall, where the duchess and the old
servitor met them. There they laid
him on a table. Joan herelf lifted the
lantern and held it to his face. At
the sight the heart of the duchess
leaped wildly within her.

no more. And the lantern fell to
the floor from her nerveless hand.
1t was the White Knight of the
CORTLAND lists, the noble Prince OF
the summer parlor, the red-robed pre-
late of her marriage day, Conrad OF
CORTLAND, Prince and Cardinal, but
to her, ''he'-the only "he."
When Conrad, Cardinal-designate
of the Holy Roman church and Arch
bishop of CORTLAND, opened his eyes
/ it seemed to him that he had passed
through warning waters into the
serenity of the life beyond.

tied on the sleeping girl. She was
very young and very beautiful It

Joan, whom ne himself had married

Conrad Of CORTLAND had not been
trained a priest, yet, as was common
at that age birth and circumstance |
had made him a prince OF the Roman
church. He had been thrust into the
hierarchy solely because of his name,
To-. he had succeeded his uncle Adrian
in his posts and emoluments as a
legal heir succeeds to an undisputeG
property In due time he received his
red hat
Nevertheless, Conrad of CORTLAND
had all the warm life and imperious
impulses of a young man within his
breast. Yet he was no Borgia or Della

scarlet vestments. For with the high

the resolve to be not less, but more
faithful than those martyrs and con-
fessors of whom he read daily in his
Breviary. So this finest and most chiv-
alrous of young northern knights had
laid down the weapons of his warfare
to take up the crucifix, and now had
set out joyfully for Rome to receive
his cardinals hat on his knees as the
last and greatest gift of the vicar of
Christ
But scarcely was he clear Of the
CORTLAND shores when there had
come the storm, the shipwreck, the
wild struggle among the white and
foaming breakers-and then, won
drously emergent, like heaven after
purgatory. the quiet Of this sheltered
room and this sleeping girl, with her
white hand lying lax and delicate on

fingers, falling on the polished wood

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Uncsasing Work Keeps Us Strong
and Healthy.


All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every
three minutes. The kidneys filter
the blood. They work night and
day. When healthy they remove
about 500 grains of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part
of this impure matter is left in the
blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms-pain in the
back, headache. nervousness, hot,
dry skin, rheumatism, govt, gravel.
disorders of the eyesight and hear
ing, dizziness, irregular heart, de-
.bility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits

the filters right you will have no

81. is Poor and Not in a Position to
Care for Her Baby and Asked the
Midwife to Give II Way.

The wanderings of new born
child in this city during the past
two days has created considerable
gossip and caused the police and
the constables a lot of troubles
The first rumor to reach TIE
HERALD was to the effect that a
new born babe had been left in the
ward of the barber shop owned by
Felix Cano, next door to the
Cathedral and that he had taken
If to his home. Investigation re-
vealed the fact that a woman
named Angela de LozanO had
carried the baby to the barber
shop and asked him of he would
care for the child, as it belonged
70 a Door woman in the country
who could not provide for it.
Later, Angela de Lozano, returned
and claimed the child and said
that she would care for it herself.
She said she did not know who
the mother was, that the babe had
been given to her by midwife
and to avoid any scandal she
would be glad to care for the IN
FAINT herself. Under the circum-
stances Felix Cano returned the
babe to her and it is now in her
possession.
After a lot of work the officers
have been able to locate the moth
er of the babe. She resides IN
Brownsville and is a servant IN the
home of a prominent family The
motives of the mother in surrend-
ering the baby appear to have peen
meant for the welfare of the child
