DR.. Snowden, who is the professor Of

Theological Seminary at Pittsburch
has written here an exceptionally
scholarly, broad minded and reverent
Ireatlse on the second coming of Our
Lord. He considers the subject. Of
course, from Christian and Scriptural
point of view, but is entirely free from
blgotry or the bonds of ecclesiastical
narrowness. He appears to have
searched and studied all the available
literature of the world on the subject
IN hand and to have studied it in all
Its manifold phases. Particularly. it is
needless to say, he has searched the
scriptures and has interpreted them in
manner at once enlightened, spiritual.
reverent and tolerant of the internre''
tatlons OF others even when they yarv
from his own.
Inc great controversy of the ages
over this subject has been that between
tne pre-m llcnnial and the post-millen

s1des with eminent fairness. but in
c!lnes definitely and indeed yery nos;-
lively to the latter In doing so he
takes an optimistic view of the world
both IN present and in future. Tho

This entertaining romance of Brit

OF our Revolution has the fine merits
OF being generally very we'll written
ana OF giving what we regard as a
more than ordinarily correct notion of
the feelings and sentiments of the two
parties in that war. There is little
plot, the end being obvious from the
beginning, but the narrative is inter
esstlng and sufficiently active and expe-
dltlous. The ready-made properties Of
the drama are at times too apparent.
