THE BETTER WAY.

The day is done,
 It's sun is set; Lord, teach US to
 Forget, forget. Nor backward look To the crimson glow A rainbow dips
 To the eastward ho! Perchance we erred, But vain regret Will not redeem
 Let us forget. With every sigh
 We weaker grow, So forward let
 Us smiling go. Though low the clouds And black as jet, Tomorrow's sun
 May gid them yet. Dead lies the past, Mark well the spot  Then let it be

II Quiet Welcome GiUefs by Press to
Ne1o Chancellor.

Berlin, July 15.-Prince and Princess Won Bulow
will leave the Chancelors palace In Berlin at the
end OF the week The Liberal newspapers gen
orally greet Dr. Bethmann-Hollweg syrnpa-
thetically but without enthusiasm. The "Vossische
Zeitung" says: For the first time man has
taken up the Chancellorship who hitherto has
been principally engaged in internal affairs At
any rate, the change does not indicate a step
toward conservatism"
The Conservative newspapers give the new Cham
cellor fairly welcome, regarding the ap-
pointment the end of the system Of coalitions.
The ''Deutsche Tageszeitung" says: The new
Chancellor's career leads to the hope of the sue
cessfu continuation of the imperial policy sound
national lines"
The Cologne "Volks Zeitung' says: The Cen
trists show healthy mistrust of the new Chan
csIlor the party will await his acts and judge ac-
cordngly.''
Dispatches from provincial centres report that
the newspapers greet Dr. Bethmann-H -Hollweg
earnest desirous of doing tine right
thing. Most of the papers, however, adopt wait

The result is that the majority Of the ship declara

FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY.
Suggestions Made as Result of
Lambeth Conference Plan.

New Haven. July H.-The last Lambeth confer
OF the bishops OF the Anglican Communion
adopted resolution suggesting that meetings OF
clergy and laymen OF different Christian bodies be
held in order 10 promote Christian unity
In accordance with this suggestion. the gen
eraI conference Of the Congregational churches Of
ConnestIcut. held I'm November. Il committee was
appointed. consisting of tho Rev. Dr. Newman
Smyth' pastor emeritus OF the Centre CHURCH
here; Chief Justice Simeon e. Baldwin. of the
Supreme Court of Connecticut. and Frederick w.
Green. OF Hartford to carry out the suggestion Of
the conference. This committee met IN May, with
Bishop Brewster. of the Episcopal Diocese Of Con-
necticut; the Rev. Drs. Francis. OF Hartford and
William r. Goodwin. and w NJ. Grosvenor. OF
New York. representatives Of the Protestant
Episcopal Church.
AS the result Of exchange OF views. the COM
mttee has prepared a suggestion to certain
methods, which interrogatively stated fol-
lows;
First-Mght not an agreement be reached In con-
formty with the constitution OF the Episcopal
Church by episcopal recognition In other congrega-
tions of such freedom of worship might be con-
genial and habitual among them?
Second-As to church membership. the suggestion
80 made that confirmation be not included among
matters essential to church unity:
Third-Mght not the office and functions OF the
episcopate be adopted in other Christian churches
as an organ Of their fellowship
Fourth-As to autonomy or self government or IN
dtvidual churches-rnight not working agreelIleht
be practical by the recognition the one hand OF
the selt-governing power OF Individual churches,
and. the other hand, general advisory functions
and some degree of episcopal direction?
FNth-As to ordinaton-the suggestion is made
that the thing to be considered is what would be
regular according TO the existing episcopal ORDER
whether additional authorization to the sacra-
whether similar and enlarged authority could be
conferred upon the ministers of the different bodies
