 To the conquering hero, said Rev. Mfr. McNally. the world gives laurel crown but to the Saviour Of mankind a crown of thorns, They thought they had consigned Christ to ignominy when he was placed in the tomb, but down through the centuries the power of Christ has gone on increasingly vic torious.
 Christ has conquered the world be- cause the spirit of man has dominated and conquered form and ritual There is ever a tendency to crystalline reHg ion into ritual. losing the spirit Of religion God is a spirit and man must worship Him in spirit if he worships Him truly. The man who counts in the world is the man whose spirit has been transformed by the spirit of Jesus Christ.

LITERARY TREASURES.
Great Finds" Hidden Away in Mu-

From LONDON I1t-bltS.
Hidden away in national museums and
libraries, and zealously guarded, are q
J number Of priceless manuscripts ana
books which, but for a fortunate chance'
might have been lost to the world. Ine
chief treasure Of a museum at st. PETERS
burg is the oldest known Greek manu-
script Of the New Testament, which was
about to be burnt by the monks OF
Syrian monastery, when. by a lucky
chance, one Of the priests. struck with
the antiquity of the manuscript. inter-
fered in time to save what had been
thought to be valueless.
The incident reminds one that the
Magma Charta, which is carefully guard
ed in a glass case In the British Museum.
was saved from destruction by Sir ROBERT
Cotton, who, 50 the story goes, one DAY
had entered his tailors shop precisely al
the moment when the knight of the sc:s-
sors was about to cut up for patterns the
ancient-looking document with Its many
imposing seals attached. Although Sir
Robert did not at first recognize the value
Of the document he judged 1t was some
thing of historic interest. and purchased
it from the tailor for few sh.lllngs.
After passing through the hands of var1-
Gus generations of his family it at last
found resting place in the BRUSH
Museum.
An interesting story, too. is attached to
a valuable Greek manuscript which came
to the Bishop of Uganto in a startling
way. It was wrapped round fish and
brought into the bishops presence: BY
the merest chance he examined 1t, and
found it to be part of 3 treatise thought

fish had been bought just in time to save
