The Lord He Served.

Judge George F. Lawton, of the
Middlesex Probate Court, told me a
story the other day of an American
minister who was spending his sab
batical year travelling abroad. Ar
irving in London, he made every
effort to get an intimate view OF the
two branches of Parliament in ses-
sion. OF course no stranger is al
lowed on the floor of the House of
Lords, but the minister not knowing
this, and with the usual amount of
American push, tried to make his way
in. There is a rule, however, that
servants of the various lords may be
admitted to speak to their masters.
Seeing the minister walking boldly in,
the doorkeeper asked:
What lord do you server"
What lord?" repeated the aston
ished American, "the Lord Jehovah!"
For a moment the doorkeeper hest
tated, and then admitted him. Turn
ing to an assistant standing near, he
said:
"He must mean one Of those poor
Scotch lairds. Boston Record.

fusei-and then It Just occurred to
her that she didn't know John Phil
FPS address. But he was in q bank,
he had told her, and the name wasn't
common one. No doubt she could
find him by inquiring.
The noise and hustle OF Forty-sec-
ond street confused her still more.
But she bravely approached tall
policeman.
Sir" she said, show can / find q
man named John Philip, Guthrie?"
The tall policeman let his vigilant
gaze rest upon her.
y. p. Guthrie, ma'am?"
Eyes. He's in a bank"
I'm n bank? So he is. ]. p.
Guthrie lives on the avenue beyond
Seventeen. Second corner, ma am.
Take an auto-bus going north"
Aunt Caroline told herself that this
j. p. Guthrie might not be her John
Philip. She suddenly realized that
New York was a great city-a city
in which names could be duplicated
many times.
She reached the second corner and
hesitated. What would she do? Per-
haps she had better see this ]. p.
Guthrie. He would know IL there
was another of the same name In
town. At least so 1t seemed to Aunt
Caroline.
There was fine looking policeman
close at hand. She turned to him.
"Yes's," he said, Al. p. Guthrie
lives on this avenue just beyond Sew
entieth. Better take an auto-bus.
Here's one now"
But she gave look at the crunch
ing and rumbling monster and shook
her gray head. She would rather
walk.
Aunt Caroline had no idea how far
1t was. And the avenue was so won
derful with its homes and churches
and the swift traffic along the road
way, that she didn't notice the dis
lance. Still, she was pretty tired
when the great park was reached and
glad when the messenger boy pointed
out the Guthrie home to her.
Aunt Caroline hesitated.
Then she went up the marble steps
bravely.
1t was beautiful four-story house
although she noted that the lot
was rather small--and Aunt Caroline
paused on the top step to look at the
richly carved doorway.
Then the door suddenly opened and
a pleasant faced man in a livery
looked at her inquiringly.

S1.00 A YEAR IN ADVANCE.
PRAGMATISM.
The New Philosophy Popular But Not
Easily Defined.

or late the world has heard much
or pragmatism- Two years ago the
name was hardly known; then It was
heralded abroad by Prof. James, of
Harvard. I'm. his popular lectures on
philosophy, and now pragmatism is
in philosophic halls and philosophic
heads are puzzling over pragmatic
doctrines.
Who are the Pramatists? What is
pragmatism? What new doctrines
does pragmatism offer? To number
the Pragmatists is an easy task, says
the Catholic Quarterly Review; to
define pragamtism is not so easy, and
still less easy is 1t to follow pragmat-
ic doctrines. Pragmatism ought to
be good thing; 1t is the new philos-
ophy, and newness and goodness are
nowadays almost synonymous.
Then it takes its name from the
Greek word pragma, which, accord
ing to James, means practical. Prag-
matism looks to the practical and in
sists on practical results. This looks
well, for the world to-day is essen
TALLY practical and demands even a
practical philosophy.
But then the new philosophy forms
a basis for the new theology, aud
this, at least for Catholics, marks it
as an object of suspicion. What is
more, pragmatism, It's supporters de-
clare, is grossly misunderstood That
looks bad, for a practical philosophy
ought to be clear and easily intelli-
gible to all.
Despite this difficulty, however,
perhaps because of 1t, pragmatism
has spread rapidly. 1t has taken root
in France, Italy, England and in our
own country. In France the move
ment is identified with modernism in
theology, and it's leaders are LIE Roy,
Bergson and Poincare.
In Italy a young band OF avowed
Pragmatists is led by Signor Giovan-
nj Papini, who is editor of their mill
liant organ, the Leonardo. The Eng
fish exponent of the new doctrines is
f. G. S. Schiller, whose Studies in
Humanism," a comparatively recent
work, is a strong plea for pragma-
tism. In America James, of Harvard,
and Dewey, of Columbia, are the lead
ers of the movement. A list of other
eminent scientists more or less SYM
pathetic with pragmatism may be
found in the preface to Studies in
Humanism."
Here are Pragmatists enough, but.
strange to say, from the mass of their
writings it is difficult to gather a
clear idea OF just what pragmatism
Is. "The Pragmatist." says Blackwell,
of Yale, ais an Elusive person. Just
when you think you have caught his
meaning you find him saying some
thing that takes 1t all back. He
brings back through the window what
he has previously turned out of the
door,"

echoed.

bank that memorable morning she
dropped into the old rocking chair
