this fanciful and cruel tale may De a cer- tain type of history. but such history was forged in hell; every word of it. must have dropped from the quill of Beelzebub himself.
 What think you of God who would soil lis majesty by receiving tile Devil as an honor q guest?
 What think you of God who would conspire with such a guest, and nse lis omnipotent power to juggle with the in- tegrity of so worthy man as Job.
 The white slavers of our great sodoms and Gomorrohs, who were never known to pause at any crime; who leer in ghouI- ish glee over the pleadings and tears of innocent girlhood, are angels of purity compared to such d character as Satin, and yet we are asked to believe. that a 1ov1ng and nercltuI creator, first made welcome guest Of this unspeakable friend and then by pre-arrangement turned him loose amidst charming family of fine girls and boys, and gave him carte blanche to work his hel1ish purposes up Oil them.
 It's horrible! too horrible for contem- platiou! If you must have fiction my boy of that ancient day, go to your pagan mythology, there you will find fables 3 thousand times more uplifting and beau tiful---fables that do lot insult your in- te1ligence; that do not exact the blight tug curse of faith in their divine inspir- at;on,
 So we end the third lesson.
