"Theor,as, theories" he said, with
a wave of his hand. Theories and

Looking out at the white beach
and the sunlit blue sea, he shook his

Toy dubbed together, bought the
manuscript, and burned it with
great secrecy, solemnly circulating:

EVOLUTION IN THE CHURCH.

The English church Of the twcnti-
eth century is far more humane,
more merciful, more enlightened,
more wise, than the church of the
fifteenth century. Looking back
one cannot fail TO sec the enormous
progress that has been made. Even
in our own day the church has out
grown many things. 1t no longer
hurls hell fire at us, for instance.
and it has long ceased to count
