(By Rev. Andreas Bard.) Great artists are generally classified as reilists and idealists, but striotly speaking there are not two bat three distinct schools of painting. Tbe realist aims to give an exact picture of life as it appears, carefully avoiding every reflection on its character, the idealist adds to things they seem, his interpretation of what he thinks they are, beauti fying and transfiguring them in a higher light tbe caricaturist finally pictures life in its gloomi est aspects and deepens the colors of horror and disgust. Every man is a painter. His thoughts furnish the color, bis tenipermeut the brush and bis moods the background to the picture he gives of life. ' He may be a realist abstaining from any comment, merely observiug the plain fact that the rain falls on the just and on the unjust,, that life is made up of sorro and joy and thut the common path leads to the graveyard He may be a caricaturist suspecting the mean est motives in God, man and nature and harboring in his boBOiu a picture of life as a vast battlefield where accident rules aud suffering reigns supreme. Or he may be an idealist like Jesus and see beyond the lilies of the field and the foul in the air the merciful care of the Father in Heaven. Now let us suppose for argu ment's sake that none of these three methods can be absolutely proven to be correot, that eviden ces can be adduced to prove any of them and that therefor before the tribunal of logic they would have an equal claim on truth, does it not seem wiser to accept something that makes life beau tiful aud inspiring than to linger over a philosophy of despair and doubt? If history and nature fail to furnish positive proof one way or the other, is it not more satisfactory to throw the benefit 1 of the doubt toward the Gospel of good cheer thau toward the gloom of Atheism? Even if Christianity should be an illu sion, has its happy dream of a loving God, of a kindly Jesus and a future full of light not given something more helpful and inspiring than the bitter resentment of unbelief? Faith throws light into mauy a dark hour, bridges many an abyss and guides over tumultuous waves. It alone presents an Hmi Hm m4 Irtvtl With Exeruolitlnf Palm A. H. Thurnes, Mgr. Wll Cress Coal G., Buffalo, O., writes! "I have been afflicted with kidney and bladder trouble for years, pass ing gravel or atones with excruciating plna. Other medicines only gave relief. After taking FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE the result was surprising. A few doses started the brick dust, like fine stones, etc., and now I have no pain across my kidneys and t feel like a new man .
