OLD MOTHERS.

i love old mothers-mothers with
white hair,
And kindly eyes and lips grown softly
sweet,
With murmured blessings over sleep
ing babes.
There is something in their quiet
grace
That speaks the calm of Sabbath aft
ernoons;
A knowledge in their deep, unfaltering
eyes
That far outreaches all philosophy.
Time, with caressing touch. about
them weaves
The silver-threaded fairy-shaw1 of age.
While all the echoes of forgotten
songs ~
Seem joined to lend sweetness to
their speech.
Old mothers--as they pass with slow
timed step

A New Theory.

A generation ago John Fiske, in one
OF his luminous essays, pointed out
that necessary effect of the Coperni-
can theory of the universe was to
make the earth and it's inhabitants
seem so small and insignificant as to
be quite unimportant in the scheme
of things and to transfer the center of
gravity of mans interest to Guns and
worlds far more vast and far more i'm
portant than ours. While the Copper
nican theory may logically seem to
have required this result, what has
happened is quite different. Mans at
tention and interest have been in
creasingly turned to himself, his i'm
mediate surroundings, and his instant
occupation. Having come to feel him
self quite superior to all that has gone
before, and being without faith in any
thing that lies beyond, he has tended
to become an extreme egotist. The
natural result has been to measure
the universe in terms of himself and
his present satisfactions. His own
emotions and his own appetites, being
present and immediate, take prece-
dence in the shaping of conduct and
of policy over any body of principles
built up by the experience of others.
The wisdom, the justice, the morality
of an act or policy are then tested
solely by its immediate results, and
these results are increasingly meas
ured in terms of the material and emo
tional satisfactions of the moment.
In a world so constituted and so
motived unrest, dissatisfaction, and
disorder are necessity. Set free a
work each for the accomplishment Of
it's own immediate material satisfac-
tions, and nothing but unrest, dissat-
isfaction and disorder is possible.

st. Paul on Mars Hill.

There is no man, there is no peo-
pie, without God. That God may
be a visible idol, carved of wood or
stone, to which sacrifice is offered in
the forest, in the temple, or in the
market place; or it may be an invisi-
BILE idol, fashioned in mans own
image and worshipped ardently at his
own personal shrine. Somewhere in
the universe there Is that in which
each individual has firm faith, and on
which he places steady reliance. The
fool who says in his heart, There is
no Cod" really means there is no God
but himself. His supreme egotism,
