As an illustration of this, recall his satire of the religion of the home of Arthur Clenam. It was "a stern re- lIgion" he says, and adds: There was the gloomy Sunday of his childhood, when he sat scared out of his senses by a terrible tract which began bus mess with the poor child by asking him, in its title, Why he was going to perdition,' a piece of curiosity that he, in frock and drawers, was not able to satisfy. There was the intermin- able Sunday of his homage when his mother, stern of face, would sit all day behind the big Bible, as if it, of all books in the world were a fortifica- tion against sweetness of temper, nat ural affection and gentle intercourse" Mrs. Clenam was given to "ferocious devotional exercises" and on the wall of her living room there hung a pie ture of "the plaques of Egypt"

 As a young man of 22, in the preface to his first pretentious work, Pickwith Papers, he defends himself against this charge, and affirms that, it is not re- ligion that he ridicules, but its hpyo- critical pretense. That was said when he was very young man. Now, when the Mystery of Edwin Brood was in course of writing, the novel that Dick ems death left unfinished. complaint was made of his use of a scriptural phrase, for the story was being published in monthly numbers, in his reply, on the very day before he died, he wrote, When I exercise my art, one of my most con- stant and earnest endeavors Is to ex- hibt in all my good people some faint reflection of the great Master. Over and over again I claim them in express terms as the disciples of the Founder of our religion; but must admit, that, to man or woman, they all rise up and wash their faces and appear not to man to fast.

HEART TO HEART TALKS-By Edwin A. Nye

1 VISITED two farm homes
 On a table in the living room of 4 one of these homes | found several late magazines, newspapers in plenty and some good books In corner of the room was fair sized library con taining books on agriculture, history. travel and fiction.
 In the other home there was no other periodical literature save the county seat newspaper and books were scarce.
 I found what expected to find as to the character of these two homes.
 In the homes where good reading abounded there were intelligence, thrift, economy. business system, prosperity and joyous home living.
 In the other home there were bieker- ing and nagging. wastefulness. lack of good management and a woeful igno- rance concerning the progress of the world at large.
 More than that The boys and girls in the home without magazines and books found their pleas ures away from the home. Some os the pleasures were silly and some were harmful Gossip took the place of read ing. The moral tone of the home was not high.
 The difference? Books and good reading. Without books and newspapers of gem eral circulation the farmer can know

of the darkness that fell upon the homes of the Egyptians.
 The religious zeal of the famous Mrs. Jellyby, Dickens describes with over mastering humor. In her religious fer vor Mrs. Jellyby would colonize a part of Africa and to this end would give her time and attention to the distant Africans. She will send them all man ner of things, such as flannel petit coats, soap, and like things All this she would do. to the neglect of her own home. There was hardly a home in the block less tidy than hers and no children anywhere were more neg lected than the poor little Jellybys.
 Dickens was not opposed to foreign missions, I suppose; certainly nothing from his pen that l remember could so designate him. But he meant to teach "Flannel petticoats at home first; soap and sweet. clean children at home first; Mrs. Jellyby's zeal for cleanli- ness in Mrs. Je1lyby's own homo first. This is what Dickens would teach by the parable of Mrs. Jellyby. Can any one gainsay this important instruc- ton?
 Upon types of such piety Dickens used his pen, his power of irony, hu- nor, ridicule, satire and wit. Upon all pretense he poured the vitriol of his

wonder, prompts society to label it's most useful citizens Under Men?' If our ears tympans were a little finer keyed, surely we would be hearing laughter bridging the distances between Mars and us.
 Until some most necessary tooling- nstruction-smoothing of rough edges is accomplished-we can only half deserve John Burrows singing praise of life. Ours is indeed slivable, lovable planet. There is indeed still much sunlight in the world; but to the vast army of the Under Men that sunlight's friending reaches mostly in the form of reflected gleams-- of mighty crowds of men marching to labor at dawn-time and marching from labor at sunset or at nighttime. I have wondered about this. From the clamor Of mill whistles and the thrill and stir of low ceilinged shops where the ma chimes are, I have wondered if it would be better for them presently. I have wondered how life in the broad day would strike them when long and equal leisure may be had-when the message of Christ shall be finally understood.
 This am sure of: that from the ranks of labor is destined to appear the real saviors and preachers of the future.
