A LAYMAN'S CONFESSION OF FAITH.

AS other men have creeds, so l have mine;
| keep the holy faith in God, in man,
And in the angels ministrant between.
| hold to one true church of all true souls;
Whose churchly seal is neither bread, nor wine.
Nor laying on of hands, nor holy oil,
But only the amounting of Gods grace.
/ hate all kings, and caste, and rank of birth;
For all the sons of men are sons of God;
Nor limps a beggar but is nobly born;
Nor wears a slave a yoke, nor car a crown,
That makes him less or more than just a man.
| love my country and her righteous cause;
So dare | not keep silent of her sin;
And after Freedom may her bells ring Peace!
! love one woman with a holy fire,
Whom | revere as priestess of my house;
| stand in wondering awe before my babes
Till they rebuke me to a nobler life.
| keep a faithful friendship with my friend,
Whom Loyalty | serve before myself;
| lock my lips too close to speak a lie;
| wash my hands too white to touch a bribe;
| owe no man a debt | cannot pay
Except the love that men should always owe.
Withal, each day, before the blessed heaven,
| open wide the chambers of my soul,
And pray the Holy Ghost to come in.
Thus reads the fair confession of my faith,
So crossed with contradictions by my life
That now may God forgive the written lie!
Yet still, by help of Him who helpeth men,
| face two worlds, and fear not life nor death!
o Father! lead me by thy hand! Amen.
Theodore Tilton: 1868.

Greatest News Reporter in America Also Is Greatest
Little "Reverter- to- Type" in the World-For-
gets That He's Journalist and Works
Like Newspaper Man.
By GARDNER MACK.

When the late Charles Darwin COM
pressed the tender roots Of the human
family tree between the pages OF his
'.Origin Of Species" he also noted that
nature had carefully knotted q string
to said species In the form OF the
theory of reversion to type. which 1t
could pull at any stage in the progress
Of civilization 1t saw nt. According
to this theory the creation of primi-
tive conditions by any force whatso-
ever. might cause not only the veneer
of culture and refinement OF Its own
age to peel from the basic structure
OF the specimen affected. but by some
sort Of spiritual erosion eat away
few of the layers with which former
ages had incrusted 1t.
All Of which would have been a hne
collection Of language for Sammy Good
friend to pass out over tho footlights
when he introduces Irwin 8. Cobb. news
reporter, to his audiences II he had
thought Of It. because Irwin 8. Cobb
Is the finest example Of the absolute
reversion to type that has been ex-
hibited before the. public.
It will be carefully noted that Cobb
Is designated news reporter" and
not a .'newspaper reporter" In the pre-
ceding paragraph. And 1t is upon this
nice little distinction that the whole
purport Of this scientific analysis hangs.
