NJ Stenning, in The Spectator
She does not come on summer days.
or on those nights when moonlight fills
The garden with slimmernng maze:
and in the time OF 6af0diis
Far. far apart from me she stays
But when on stormy nights I go
Down shadowy lawns. by whispering woods,
She PAGES with me to and fro,
And takes a thousand varying moods,
AS winds that know not whence they blow
I hear the rustic OF her dress.
light kiss fails upon my hair
She seems so near turn to bless
Her company,-but darkness there
Holds mockinS depths of emptiness.
Anon she murmurs: Il am nigh,
oh dearest listen, ! am near"
hear the light step fitting by.
And borne upon the wind hear.
hOh dearest dearest, IL is T.!
All. God! For just one moments space
To hold her To my heart again
Down. down the woodland paths race.
NV arms outstretChed to her;-the rain
Falls like soft tears upon my face.
Rut always out Of reach the cry
comes sobbing back among the trees,
"Oh dearest, dearest. IL is L.
And through the thunder ~ the seas,
oh dearest listen, l am nigh
Stin stn she leads .ne on apace.
And still / follow. calling her,
Irutfl through wen known meadow WAYS
And down dark avenues OF III.
She leads me to the Peaceful Place.
There. sheltered from the storms that rave
without the ancient guardian wall.
lie those who hear nor wind nor wave
And there she leaves me, though fall
To bitter weeping by her grave.

The message of Christianity. as Sir Oliver
Lodge interprets it, has both spiritual and prac-
tical elements. the worship of God as SPIRIT
and the service Of man brother but its
essential force is in its conception OF human
God. of Goo not only immanent in the uni
verse hut actually incarnate in it and revealed
in the Incarnation. At some length the author
criticises what ne calls the orthodox doctrine
of the Atonement. which maintains that GoL
cannot forgive sin until He has exacted an ace
duate penalty somewhere He admits that this
does embody kind of truth, since penalty must
follcw every inharnlonous action, but the treat
ment of the subject is hardly informing or clari-
flying on so central dogma as this, to which
all the altars give witness it would seem i'm

has a bow of recognition for John Macleod
Campberl's statement in regard to the Atone
ment but to illustrate his case against "ortno-
doxy" he pitches a few hymns and a couple
of essays in 'Lux Mundi.' We are left without
question however. that throughout these pages
the single aim is to conserve the spiritual values
while putting all things to the test OF moral
utility. From beginning to end Of the Weishty

OF Avery Nelson was seriously in

SELF CONTROL

The greatest battle of lite have
ben fought unheralded, for those
silent struggles for seli-mastery
are the strata on which each in
dividual must build his future life
structure. These include the con-
troll OF ones emotions.
Sell-indulgence weakens tn g
moral fabric just as self-control
strengthens it. Every time q bat
tie is lost in this conflict, the
moral nature ls the loser and re,
sistance grows weaker.
Seli-control broadens the pros
pective and increases the faculty
OF appreciating ousside influence
Hedged about bv selfish impnls-
es, the mind is dwarfed and the
reason enevated-but when a
firm CONTROL is gained, the great
barrier OF self-consciousness in
broken down, and the world be.
comes the field OF the mind.
The apostle to the Gentiles un.
derstood the value OF self-control
y hen he wrote to the church at
Corinth OF excepting under h 6
body, and bringing it into sub.
lection" Had he not learned this
lessen, the world would never
have been blessed with the in
spired words. Controlling t h e
human element. he was better a.
ble to direct his life and thought

the wise political prognosticator
has closed down for repairs,
while he waits developments with
in the Democratic fold.
The reports which reach here
from New York indicate great
and pernicious activity on the
part of ofWilliam Randolph Hearst
who seems set in his determine
ton to do everything to prevent
a Democratic victory, although
his special animus is against Mr..
Bryan who, he. claims, repudia-
ted him four years ago. Hearst
still cherishes an oyerweaning
ambition to be President and as
he has no hobby but politirs and
an unlimited purse with which to
further his ambitions he is q fac
tor to be reckoned with. His pres
ent aim is to make Mr., Bryan,
or any other regular Democratic
nominee, run third in Massachu-
sets, Illinois and New York and
while there seems to be little like
lihood that he will accomplish
his end, it is feared he may play
havoc with the Democratic vote
in these states.
In the Republican camp every
thing Is moving toward unanim-
ity and harmony. Wild eyed pol
iticians who a few short weeks
ago were breathing anathema
against Secretary Taft are now
covertly working for him with
but a single purpose, the accom-
plishment OF Republican success.
The President has successfully
used his slogan, "1f you don't
take Taft you will get me" and
the interest which have all ..along
opposed Taft and favored Can
non, or Hughes or Foraker, are
now so thoroughly: frightened
that they welcome the nomina-
tion of Taft as the lesser evil.
