The teeth of rats and mice have no
roots. As the animal wears them
down by gnawing-which prevents
them from becoming too long-they

Not what I think, but what I feel is

thinking and reasoning will eternally

self -sufficiency and self-fsolation, If

by intellectual effort means strain. fric-
tion, mechanic pressure from environ

to grow by feeling means the spon-
taneous response to universal law, as
the growth of a plant or an animal: the

growth, power. intelligence.
Intellect contracts and hardens from
outer pressure, feeling softens and ex-

out of the depth of feeling has sprung
every concept of science. philosophy
and religion worthy Of application to

Relations Of God and Man.
From the Nautilus.

In studying the Bible 1t becomes in
creasingly apparent that the relations
between God and man are not constant
or fixed, but are subject to gradual
read1ustment. In tho earlier chapters
the ideal held out is for man to fear"
God Later he learns to trust. to .
limited extent, this Higher Life.
Eventually this grudging faith Is turned
to love, which recognizes God as the
Father, constantly giving Himself. az
Life and Wisdom. to His children; And
beyond this comes that fruition OF
growth which constitutes real unity:
man is merged with God. and comes to
realize that IT and the Father are one.
COD never changes, but Our under
standing Of Him does change. And It 10
