' The memory of the desolation of Zlon and the knowl edge that the nation, was subject to. a foreign tyrant is responsible for Us pro duction.

The thought had cqnne to this singer that Qod was yet the' re warder of them that JlHsently.sfchlra. The oause of the Jew was not forgotten. There was really ;,. no need for this despondency even in Babylon. The same Ood lived and loved, It was their business to hope In Ood. A great hope and confidence In Ood would quicken and Invigorate them and give teem a vision to discern even disguised bless ings. ': V.V:.

If. asked as to the state of our health we, reply much , as did , Neal's Mr. Trepld': 'A great deal worse than I was, thankee; most dead, I'm obliged to you I'm always worse than I was, and I don't think I was ever any better. Tut going off boto of these days Tight after my grandfather, dying of nothing In particular, but of everything in gen eral. That's what finishes our folks.' . "I think fit is Holmes In the 'Auto crat' who writes, 'I took more than was good for me. While I was suffering from It, I write some sadly desDondlnr . ooems. and . a theological essay which took a. very melancholy view of creation.' The bad liver has played havoo with both our literature and our theology. Shakespeare, had times when he doubted his ability as a dramatist. Raphael sorrowed because he had no genius as an artist and yet he has painted a picture well, nigh lm- inortal. : :. "Iook at the case , . of , Elijah the prophet. He stood Vefore the king, a messenger of the most .high. He seemed to be without fear. On Carmel with all the priests of Baal before him he was not afraid. He stands like a : giant In that storm of wrath and hatred which swept about him; Hear his sar casm as he taunts, these priests and ridicules the claims' of their gods. He does not hesitate to denounce people and authorities when he sees the wrong, See him before the kingt Listen to his denunciation- of Israel's anointed-- Hear thf terrible sentence be pronounces against him,' The scene changes. The dueen threatens him and he flees like a coward Into the wilderness. He calls on Ood to taker his life. He wants to die. No man ever had such a triumph as did Elijah on Carmel and few men ever experienced the gloom' that wrapped the soul of the prophet when he erled out for death. 1 ! STo Defease Against Helaaonoly.

It does not concern one section on'y or deal with a provincial problem., it is a splendidly told tale of American life in this day and for this generation. In showing how James Stuart finds out, what are really the best gifts of life,' Mr.,' Dixon has told a story of realism and truth. For the woman of his story it is a struggle between love and the desire of luxury, for the man ; it is that bitter conflict between the ' temptation of unlimited wealth and oower and the allurements of an old affection which spells moral surrender. .
