Reviews of Some of the Late Books and the Current Periodicals'
Some Fanlt ttn.linff with William I). Mr. Howelis is tn me. next to Hawthorne, the prince of Am-ri .m novelists. This may not b in accord with popular opinion. nevertheless I delight above all things I titious to rend h: -:: tfii'in Laj-hnm and his girls. Harley Hubbard and his wife. Marsh and his comrades In 'The Hazard of New Fortune." and Jeff in "The Landlord of Linn s lltal" are. to me. all fascinating characters because fhey belong to that common lace life which Is my case and lot. "Similla similibus curantur." All his pictures of life and Its surroundings are wonderfully perfect. I doubt if ever the recent and present cold weather has been as well described as it is in the opening chapters of "A Modern Instance,"' where the village of Equity is painted as in the dead of winter and under sixteen inches of snow. Reading Howells's books carries me back to the far off days of my youth and brings to my Hps Thackeray's little erse. "Do. ra, fa. so. la. e. do. What la thin? Ma. fol ; the fact la That my hand ia out of practice. And my poor fiddle cracked is; And s man I let the truth out Who has almost every tooth out Cannot alng aa once he sans; When he was young as you are young. When he waa young and lutes were ntruag And love lamp in the caaement hung." While Mr. Howelis is easily th premier of our living literary American authors, yet he occasionally makes a very bad and mistaken estimate of a great book. Such a mistake Is now before me. It is his judgment upon Hawthorne's "House of the feven Gables." So as to be entirely fair, I give all he says upon this subject, copying from Volume l. Heroines of Fiction," Page 1(3. "The House of the Seven Gables." "This last, indeed," says Mr. Howelis: "I have found as nearly tiresome as I could find anything of Hawthorne's. I do not think It is censuring it unjustly to say that it seems the expansion of a short-story motive to the dimensions of a novel; and the slight narrative in which the concept is nursed with whimsical pathos to the limp end, appear sometimes to falter and alarms the sympathetic reader at otner times with the fear of an absolute lapse. The characters all lack the vitality which the author gives the people of his other books. The notion of the hapless Clifford Pincheon, who was nurtured for happiness and beauty, but was fated to such a hard and ugly doom. Is perhaps too single for the realization of a complete personality, and poor old Hepzlbah, his sister, is of scarcely more sufficient material. They move dim. forlorn wraiths before the fancy, and they bring only such proofs of their reality as hosts seen by others can supply. The careful elaboration with which they are studied seems only to render them more doubtful, and there is not much in the pretty, fresh-hearted little Phoebe Pyncheon. or her lover. Holgrave, with all his generous rebellion against the obsession of the present by the past, to render the central figures convincing. Hawthorne could not help giving form to his work, but as nearly as any work of his could b? so. 'The House of the Seven Ga&les' is straggling. There is. at any rate, no great womanly presence to pull it powerfully together, and hold it In the beautiful unity characteristic of The Blythedale Romance' and 'The 8calet Letter.' What solidarity It has is In the simple Salem circumstance of the story, where the antique Puritanic atmosphere merge? with the modern air In a complexion of perennial provinciality." Let us dwell upon this criticism a little "the characters all lack the vitality which the author gives the people of his other books." In this "all" is Include Judge Pincheon, Tncle Venner, Jim Higgins. and the rest of the outfit. In my Judgment. Judge Pincheon Is one of the most masterful sketches of character ever written by Hawthorne or any other great author. It is that of a greedy, self-seeking.- pompous, prosperous, well-placed old hypocrite. MINISTER SAYS BIBLE IS BUI A RELIGIOUS PRIMER Keynote of Unitarian Thought Is Struck in Declaration that Scripture Is Insufficient. HIGHER LIFE ESPOUSED At All Souls' t'nitarian Church the Rev. J5. E. Newbert Kave the last two sermons on "Unitaftanlsm Considered as a Thought Movement and a Religious Advance'' yesterday, "rnltarianism Is a daring optimism,'' he said. "Its thought is a growing thought. We name the name of Channing with pride, but Channing's camp fires are behind us. "We swear by no single prophet, neither acknowledge any intellectual master. We believe the latter day of man is vaster than th day of beginning. We aocept the world's acred books for what they are worth. The Bible is scarcely more than a religious primer. "It Is not a recor.I of God's dealings with our human world, but an imperfect and partial expression of the H.-btews" thought of God. The Hebrew and Persian and Indian mind had no preparation that made It fit to peak for God or for man. Modern man go wider acld for his information, yet he M but beginning to gather and classify his material. Truth in its hnal form must wait to be wrought out by a genius whose moral tature we arc able to outline. SAYS MAX IS HOODWINKED. "Shall this type of thought, so open and free, so progressiv.. s receptive. o inclusive, so nobly reverent, fall as a means to the higher life? Has it food for the soul? Does It breathe a hope, and can it inspire a great and triumph. int faith? Evidently some ouls would starve on such a diet. I think of a man so long hoodwinked that his weak eyes turn from the light. Or a r an Is tired of thinking and creeps into the shadow of mysticism. Or a man refuses to look upon ths world as it is. He asks an unreal iewpoint He likes th false perspective. He demands colored Klasse. "Now, UnitarianiHm will not appeal to these types. It has n shadow of mysticism. It has no quackery, neither does it practice hypnotism Is God so set with mete and bound, ami is man so pour in intellect" I sometimes look back over the last twenty years, and 'tis then I am tempted to say that in that time I have seen God as thr- gh n glass darkly, and I have seen hlti face to face. DID NOT BELIEVE IN DEITY. "For once I thought I believed in God. But that day came after a long conflict, when, the old idols all down. I could say that I nev r believed In God until now now when I cannot And Him nor lose Him. I thought, too, that T believed in Jesus. I was ent to Him for personal salvation, but no one told me to sit at the feet of the Man to learn of Him.

The judgo stands at the top of the social ladder In his county and täte; in fact, he is on the point of being nominated Governor of Massachusetts. Yet he is the real criminal who, to shield his guilty self, has sacrificed the good name and manhood as well as th liberty of his COUfltfl Clifford, whom, after his release from prison, he is again seeking to draw into his toils, but is debated by the courage of the poor Hepxihah and the little Phor he. Nothing in all of Hawthorn- 's books is more masterly than his description of Judge Pincheon's repulse by these two women. Hawthorne
I was also an artist in deaths, but his de scription of the death or the judge by a stroke of apoplexy and his sitting in his chair for eight and forty hours afterward Is, In my judgment, the finest one of Its kind in all literature. And th n Howells's juogm-nt upon Phoebe, to-wit. "there is not much in bar," is all wrong; so rr.ueh so as to lead to a doubt whether his memory when he wrote these words was noi In fault. Nothing in this sweet, fresh, bricrht little Yankee girl, who converted the gloomy death-smitten old house of the seven gables into a cheerful home, found in It a good husband and put new life Into Hepzibah and Clifford. There was never a greater literary mistake than this false estimate of this sweet girl and several other great characters of the book. On the comical side, Fncle Venner and Jim Higgins. the venerable old man and the gingerbread cannibal boy of five years bear the unmistakable mark of genius. Genius is the power to glorify the commonplace, as, for example, to take an old pauper like I'ncle Venner and put In his mouth auch earthly wisdbm and quaint sayings as Hawthorne does Is one of the very highest accomplishments. It is like Wordsworth or Burns making- immortal poetry out of beggars, peddlers, old sheep, dogs and what not. Another trouble with Howells's later style, which Is growing upon him. is his unclearness and his Inordinate ambition to make a new grammar and a new dictionary. In his literary criticisms and his later books his sentences grow more and more involved the tail often runs away from the head so that he begins a passage, as Kmerson puts It. "with a broad, beautiful highway and ends in a squirrel track, which runs up a tree." This habit so grows upon him that his "Easy Chairs." as they appear from month to month in Harper's Monthly, are growing to be harder and harder to read. For one, I do not object to a reasonable amount of psychology In my novels, but when page after page is devoted to his or her hair-splitting upon motives for small actions, or when the heroine refuses her lover because It would otherwise Interfere with her metaphysics, the thing becomes disagreeable. Then our unquestionably great author seems to be ambitious to make a new dictionary. In the first Installment of his new novel, entitled "Royal Sangbrith." Just begun In the North American Review, on Page 148, I find this passage: "Jessamy silhouetted her little head and jimp figure to the young man on the threshold." Jimp is a word In Webster's dictionary and Is defined as neat, handsome, elegant. Why. Is it not the worst kind of affectation to use the barbarous word "Jimp" instead of using the above wellknown words as given by a standard dictionary? Again, in his notice of Frank Norrls. deceased, and his books, published a few months ago in the North American Review, he uses among others the following words of his own coinage, "martyry." "epicallty." "continentality," but fortunately draws the line at the word "logicality." which he did not use, as It was not called for. Again, he prints in the same sentence I "Hker," "likest." the comparative and sur ; perlative of "like." While Webster's dictionary contains these words, yet. as a matter of fact, they are never heard in a conversation and to use them is sheer affectation. To be like Shakspeare. Mr. Howelis is constantly coining a verb out of a noun. For example, out of "background" he makes the word "backgrounded." In a chapter In this same book that I have quoted from we find the word "typiflc." and again "modernest" and so on to the end of the chapter. These, however, are only files In Mr. Howells's pot of ointment, and we should be very foolish to reject the soothing lotion when we can so easily pick out and throw away the unseemly insects. No one pays more cheerful tribute to the general merits of our American literary premier than I do. As he grows older he grows kindlier in his estimate of authors and their works. OF SONGS WAS E TO David's Soul, According to the Rev. Mr. Smith, Mirrored His People's Sentiment. WAS A HUMANITARIAN "Joy and Judgment" was the Rev. J. Cumming Smith's theme yesterday morning at the Tabernacle Presbyterian Church. "It is one of the original qualities of the Bible," he said, "that it is a matchmaker and marries words usually set opposite or even irreconcilable. Inspiration widens words so that they develop. The narrowness expands out to them and a universal mind harmonizes them In one friendly unity. David brooded even unto pain and sickness of heart over the inequalities and the scandalous iniquities of the world. A great soul cannot be private and build a high wall around its own case and to all disquieting facts it cannot put up a sign at the gates 'I am private ground; all trespassers in the guise of sorrows and problems will be prosecuted by law.' IDEALIST HAD SHORT COMINGS. "David appropriated public calamities. Like all idealists, however, he forgot the fact of evolution in actual conditions. Sucn an ethical ideal cannot be realized quickly any more than an express train can leave New York and arrive at San Francisco in an hour or two hours. "Idealists for peace are downcast because in this advanced period war should be possible and Russia and Japan are bracing for a contest with Christian nations looking on In doubt. But there are no absolutely Christian nations as yet. There are no perfect conditions as yet. We an far in advance of our forefathers who would a. soon shoot a man on the other side as kill a bear. Nevertheless the ideal of peace, the tribunal of brain and fellowship is only : ' orialising. While on the way to that glorious ultimatum when Krupp gurs will stand in a museum of fossils, we must simply work our ideals, but make the bail out of the worst. MUST Sl'FFEK TO SUCCEED. "Now what is the object of penalty? Grant that God has ordained a universe of law and evolution, that there is no looseness or lottery or chance anywhere, that nun must pay the price sooner or later, granted all this, wc ak. What is the end Gad has in mind? We answer with David that judgment is a gradual process by which things attain tinal equity and every man's outward condition squares with his personal rectitude. Therefore penalty is not an end in itself. "The keystone of theology is a love that works out righteousness. It is the motive of ultimate restoration that compels and comforts the omnipotent. "To dream of PMTfl torment without some repentance or rectification f chat al ter which the torment achieves further ou is simply to bankrupt the divine government and drive all faith over the precipice. The genius of punishment is remedial. It is the scourge of a father and not of a despot. Believe in God as Christ pictured His chaiai t.r and you must believe that our world now so blind and self-ruiu-ing must return to obedience, avail ü it reluire millions oi aeons of bittern .-s to bring about that ultimate life of hol;uesj everywhere."

I'ortrnitn of tlio BiS-tlSS. There is scarcely a more prolific reminiscent and historical writer in Kngland today than Justin McCarthy. His abundant store of impressions and experiences, without dependence upon the contemporary records of others is remarkable. He knew all the prominent men and women of the sixties and was familiarly associated with many of them. In those days Palmerston and Lord John Russell were still rivals or colleagues. Brougham and Lyndhurst were still showing off their different styles of oratory in the Houe of Lords. Gladstone had begun his most splendid financial triumphs; t'obden had accomplished a grat commercial treaty with France, and Bright was the foremost democratic orator in the Commons. Disraeli. Bulwer, Tennyson, Dickens. Carlyle. John Stuart Mill. Mat Use, Landseer. Alboni. Grisi. Lablache, Kran, Mathews. Helen Faucet were names familiar in various fields. Thackeray and Macaulay were passing away, while Browning had not yet become the fashion, and only by men and women of intellect was he recognized as a great poet. In fashion the sixties was the period of the reign of crinoline, that grotesque article of feminine costume which defied ridicule and caricature, which furnished subject for accounts of "crinoline accidents" such as a hre catching the distended drapery that would have delighted the heart of the more modern newspaper reporter and yellow journal artist. The sacrifices that were made to this prevailing fashion wculd have done the sufferers immortal L ii. r if they" had been made for the sake of religious or political principles. The delineations of men and manners as made hv Mr. McCarthy bring before the mind of the reader this great period as few books can do. Resides a keen perception and a rich experience. Mr. McCarthy has brought to his work a genial, sympathetic spirit, and a pleasant and political style. Harper & Brothers, New York. Amttrn-llnnKarian Life. The Austrians possess many excellent qualities, but they are. above all. a pleasureloving people. A book on Austrian life "Au3tro-Hungarian Life in Town and Country" must necessarily bo pleasant reading, if the writer has any literary talent whatever. There are many striking contrasts between the fiery and impetuous Mazzars, the more dreaming and imaginative Slavonic peoples, and the Germanic Austrians. who have regarded themselves as the Imperial race, whose language, religion and customs were destined to replace those of the "inferior" nationalities. All, however, have the passion for pleasure, and to the foreigner they all are frank and open-hearted. Austria Is still comparatively poor, and it is the home life of the landed proprietors of small fortunes, the Baueres. and of the laboring peasantry that one will find the normal features of Austrian character. The Austrian noble is not remarkable for business capacity. He is typically reckless and incapable of taking life seriously. There Is more public and private lassez-falre spirit in Austria than In any surrounding country. The Austrians, however, are devoid of the false shame that leads Russian officials to adopt expedients to convey the impression that their wealth and social importance are far greater than in reality. Though the pleasures of the nobility are expensive, money alone does not secure an entre into the society of the landed aristocracy. Th? noble houses are thrown open to literary men and artists, quite irrespective of their fortunes. The author makes aN good picture of his large subject, and shows, besides the social and political features of AustroHungarlan life, the close analogy between the life of the people and the physical characteristics of the country. The vast Alpine regions, majestic rivers, mountain torrents and boundless forests have their counterpart in the thrilling and romantic RELIGIOUS VIEWS Of A NOTED RUSSIAN PRAISED Tolstoi, Last Survivor of Illustrious Three, Has Advocate in the Rev. Lewis Brown. SIMPLICITY HIS CREED One of the best sermons that has yet been delivered by the Rev. Lewis Brown, pastor of St. Paul's Church, was delivered yesterday morning on "The Christian Doctrine of Forgiveness." In introducing his subject he said that several years ago there were three noted personages in the world con spicuous both for mentai vigor and attain- ' ment Glad tone, Li Hung Chang and Tolstoi. Of these tl ree, only the last remains. Dr. Brown said I hat though Tolstoi has a world-wide repute as a statesman and a reformer he is perhaps more marked as an exponent of the Christian religion. "In his famous volume, 'My Religion.' said the pastor, "he reduces Christianity to a single emanation namely, forgiveness of injuries. He believes that the text, 'Love your enemies,' exemplified absolutely, would conquer tbe entire world for Christ. He contends that the reason for the lack of spirituality and the feebleness of the church's progress can be found right here failure to honor this initial law of the 'Sermon on the Mount.' "It is well to scan such a declaration in the light of modern opinion. What is the trouble with religion to-day absence of real preaching or of vital discipleship? The pulpit is not lacking so manifestly as the pews. It is this every-dai" world that needs conversion, yet how caK it be conquered save through the very mode which anciently brought heathendom to the feet of Christ? "The call is individual. Each one must find his personal goal. As he makes of all the issues of life a reflection of the pacific spirit, he shall testify of Christ. Pity and mercy stand side by side in eternal concord. To overlook faults and condone sins is angelic work indeed. Blessed are those who check the outbursts of passion j.nd teach human lips the evangel of undvlng love. If to 'err is human, then to forgive is divine.' " WORLDLY AID UX SOUGHT IN CHRISTI AX SCIHXCE Spirit Is Held to Be Distinct from Matter by Indianapolis Cong relation. The congregation of the First Church of Christ (Scientist) held their meeting in the Propylaeum yesterday. The subject was "Spirit." The meeting was begun by selections from their text-book. "Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures." byMrs. Mary Baker G. BMMbjT. These selections bear on the subject and bring out the spirit import of the scriptural selections pertaining to the sermon. Th lesson as reaid from the text-book W! : "To-day vc live in a spiritual umv. rse. controlled and governed by spirit. Jih! is spirit and J-sus said, 'God is a spirit, and they tha worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth.' " Throughout Mm sermon selections were read from the Bible and from the text-book. Particular attention ,t- paid to the passage: "I am God. and th- re is a none beside me." synonymous with the statement in Christian M09i "Spirit is the only substance. It is a false supposition that there is real substance Hatter. All that art correctly know of spirit comes from God. Mutter can aftord you no aid." It whs held that universal thought Is drifting to a spiritual cause as the foundation of all fact may be seen in the discarding of time-honored theories and dethroning of matter in explanation of all phenomena of materialistic living.

Oat of a Flea r-tle-Lia. This is one of the unique book? of the year. It is divided Into three parts one. a clear and concise li.ttory of the Louisiana Territory from the time of its discovery down to the date of the purchase; another, the story of creating and constructing a world's fair, the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, told by four voung people who become connected with the enterprise, and closing wüh a description of what may be seen withm the gates of the fair on its completion; thf last, biographical sketches of the most important men and women connected with the exposition. The book v;is written by Claude EL Wetmore in the offices of the exposition company and on board the monitor Arkansas while it was voyaging up the Mississippi to participate in the ceremonies incident to the dedication of grounds and buildings of the exposition. The volume was edited by the secretary of the exposition company. W. A. Wilde Company, Boston. In Old EKjpt. H Pereira Mendes takes the father of Moses, who was called Amram. and makes him the hero of this juvenile story. The intent is to show that two such excellent people as Amram and Jocheved, his wife, could not help having such a noble-hearted and God-fearing son as Moses, and that all who follow their example will be good boys and girls, good men and women. The moral is not so plainly drawn as to be obtrusive, however. The Egypt of great cities, prosperous industries, drilled armies and navies, magnificent temples and monstrous structures forms the background of a story of real people who have been written about many times, but never in a style more inviting to children. Frederick A. Stokes Company. New York. Current Periodicals. Jack London begins, in the February number of Wilshire's Magazine, a new and striking sociological study. "The Tramp." The editor contributes a review of Alfred Russell W allace's new book, "Man's Place In the Universe." The death of Herbert Spencer serves to introduce a discussion of the synthetic philosophy with particular reference to its treatment of socialism. The World's Work for February is overflowing with good material and illustrations. Chief among the articles are "The Work of Augustus Saint-Gaudens," "Lumbering byMachinery" and "The Work of a WirelessTelegraphy Man." Mr. B. T. Galloway, of the Department of Agriculture, tells of the profits of garden and orchard, when a scientific method of horticulture is followed, and he offers a concrete example of success in such a venture by a friend who took up a worn out farm near Washington. D. C, and made it a valuable and profitable property. Country Life in America continues to be the best magazine of its kind in the country, with illustrations that are triumphs of half-tone work. The first of a series of, articles on horseback riding appears in the February number. Lovers of Thoreau will be Interested In a description of his Massachusetts homes, especially his hut on Waiden pond. Rose growing under glass is fully described; the story of the acquirement and improvement of a large ranch In California is well told (this being the notable article of the number); and minute directional are given how to grow grapes in winter. "The Common Lot." the serial story by Robert Herrick, now running in the Atlantic Monthly, treats of a young architect with high ideals practicing his profession with a commercial firm in Chicago. The editors of the Atlantic have intimated that Mr. Herrick's plot has a singularly fatalistic foreshadowing in the recent terrible catastrophe at the Iroquois Theater, in Chicago. While not wishing to forestall the course of the story, they intimate that its climax, written several months ago, turns CHURCH URGED TO MAKE USE OF A HIDDEN POWER Inherent Possibilities of Great Men Are Applied to Spiritual Things by the Minister. AMBITION IS PRAISED "Life's Latent Forces" was the subject of the Rev. Frank O. Beck's sermon yesterday morning at the Mapleton M. E. Church. He said. In discussing Inherent possibilities of life: "It is God's method to endow. He placed man in matter before He could get man from matter. Evolution testifies to involution. The nugget of coal, vegetable germ and little child are 'the hiding of His power.' Mr. Edison declares that when we realize the latent possibilities of a scuttle of coal we will have a power that will drive an express train from New York to Philadelphia. The 'king of the forest' is but the realization of the latent force of the vegetable germ; the oak is but the fullness of the acorn. The child is the embryo man, and all its progress is an unfolding like that of the vegetable bud. NEW VERSION OF DOCTRINE. "It is a secret which every intelligent man learns very early that beyond the selfrealized is a higher self that it is always possible to realize. It is the Christian version of the heathen philosopher, Heraclitus, doctrine of 'becoming.' Every child contains within himself the elements of every line of labor. In him is the embryo artist, farmer, soldier, trader. But the power to realize these ends is latent, and his manhood will register the use or the lack of use to which he has put these germinal capabilities. "To his generation Keats was but a liveryman's son, Lincoln was but a rail splitter, and Christ was merely 'the carpenter's son.' But Keats was more than 'some mute, inglorious Milton.' and Lincoln more than 'some Cromwell, gu Hless of his country's blood,' and Christ was more than 'Joseph's son.' The world could not invoice their capabilities. We are not able ourselves to survey in advance the route we will take through life. No one thought Helen Kellar capable of doing or of becoming anything. She states in that wonderful story of her life how she regarded the world as a sealed book, and what Joy of soul came to her a.s she began to realize her hidden resources. "Scarcely any one realizes their normal possibilities. The average Christian is entirely too meek. Wolsey's words have had a baneful influence upon us all: 'Cromwell, I charge thee, tling away ambition; by that sin fell the angels.' "Ambition is not a vice; It is a virtue. It is the truest living to get all the energies of one's being drawn out in conquering intensity upon a single object. Do not overwork the principle of humility. There is already too much of good-natured complacency in our churches. Peter urged the church forward, Paul wants them 'to abound.' 'to stir up the gift of God which is in them.' " SOURCE OF SIX IS THE HUMAN HEART "Christ's Doctrine of Sin'' was the subject of the sermon delivered by Dr. Joshua Stanstield yesterday morning at the Meridian-street Church. He held that ail sin in the world comes from the voluntary actions and thoughts of man. but that he was abetted to a great extent In his wrongdoings by the training he receives. He quoted from an Knglish author, who said that the institutions of the time were bad and in a great measure accountable for the evil that was prevalent. Bad institutions were some of the sources of sin. He insisted that man t-ansgreased against the divine laws by naiure. "It is high time." he said, "that we learn to discriminate between the occasions and the canse of wrong." Dr. Stansfield concluded by pointing to the remedy for all evil that exists In the human heart. He pictured Christ standing ready at all times to receive sin-stricken man and relieve him of his burden.
upon a tragical fire, the result of the failure of builders to follow the hero's architectural specifications a failure winked at by him for commercial reasons. This is a striking evidence of the truth-telling and, as it were, prophetic power of fiction. The Century Magazine for Februaryopens with an entertaining article by Albert Bigelow Paine on "Brlc-a-Brac Auctions In New York." Ernest Seton Thompson contributes a paper railed "Fable and Wood Myth." the purpose of which at least is likely to be misleading to young readers. There is another installment of the delight-

John Burroughs corrects some of the Ideas afioat concerning wild and domestic animals ideas that have been encouraged by certain self-styled naturalists. Mr. Burroughs has no false sentimentality concerning animals, and his views have the flavor of common str.e. Roger S. Tracy. M.

The World To-day for February contains a discussion and collection of views of the Iroquois Theater tragedy. Among the contents of this number are; "The Conquest of the American Dtsert." by Day Allen Willey; "Tue Architecture of the Louisiana Purchase reposition." by Edward Hale Brush: "Motor Speeding. " the New American Sport." by K. Ralph Estep; "Publishing as a Business Career.' by George P. Brett, president of the Macmillan Company: "American Caricature and Public Opinion." by Ingram A.

Cope, and "Municipal Progress in Germany," by Frederick Stymets Lamb. The Book Lover, hitherto issued bimonthly, will appear every month hereafter, the January number beginning the new series. This magazine has been a delight to readers of bookish tales because of ,the variety and really literary character of its contents. In its new form It has changed somewhat in size and general appearanceit promises to keep the same standard. The appearance In the new monthly, however, of an illustrated chapter on the subject of the stage, prominent as a regular feature. Is likely to be somewhat disconcerting to former admirers of the periodical. The 10-cent magazines supply all the pictures of actresses they care for. In the number are the opening chapters of a literary serial. "The Predestination of Van." which is out of the ordinary. It deals with facts real persons, places, publishers and incidents. The author's name will not be revealed. The International Studio for February (John Lane) opens with, an article on the paintings and etchings of Sir Charles Holroyd by A. L. Baldry. with a number of beautiful reproductions in color and black ! and white, both of the artist's figure draw- ' ing, etching and landscape painting. Mr. ; w. K. West writes of the recent works of W. Reynolds-Stephens. The article is ac companied by beautiful illustrations of interior decorative designs, panels, sculpture and statuary designs by this gifted artist.

MISRULE OP ANCIENTS DISCUSSEDFROM PULPIT Minister Draws Parallel Between Times of Hebrew Rulers and of President Roosevelt. DEITY IS FOUNDATION Taking conditions centuries old and drawing a parallel to latter-day civic and moral problems, the Rev. Dr. Albert Hurlstonc, of Roberts Park M. E. Church, last night discoursed on the country's civic conditions. He said that In Isaiah's time corruption existed in a similar form to the "graft" and misrule of to-day. His entire sermon was a plea for reform. "The prophet Isaiah is one of the most interesting and masterly writers of Hebrew literature," he said. "His writings are in many respects relevant to our day. He exposed without fear the sins of men high in authority. "But they also have erred through wine, and though strong drink are out of the way, the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in Judgment. Therefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people. Because ye have said, 'We have made a covenant with death.' "Therefore, thus saith the Lord: 'And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell sha not stand.' CIVIC MISRULE OPPOSED. "Isaiah makes a strong plea for civic righteousness. The social corruption of his time was most distressing. It was the constant doctrine of the Hebrew prophets that when a people did not like to retain God in their knowledge, and construe the science of life into a science of indulgence, character rapidly declined. "Recently one of Europe's greatest experts on construction and building said, when his opinion was asked in regard to the fall of the Campanile: 'In my opinion, the whole of Venice is doomed to destruction. The foundation on which the city is built has deteriorated; the piles are becoming rotten and decayed, and can no longer support the immense weight above.' "How futile are the efforts of men to keep the superstructure intact when the laws ' of nature have been disregarded in the foundation. "God is the master builder. He is also the great builder of life. There has been a deep-seated yearning in man's heart to see God. When Philip said: 'Show us the Father and it SUffloetfc us,' he was only giving expression to the desire of universal man to see God. Jesus said: 'He that hath seen me hath seen the Father!' Here is something tangible. Something to grasp, a person about whom our affections can twine. Here is one who can sympathize with us. FOUNDATION IS CHRIST. "Christ is the foundation of our faith in the Bible. The testimony of Jesus la the spirit of prophecy. The Scriptures testify of me." said Jesus. 'Because I live ye shall live also,' He said to His followers. One demonstration is sufficient. When men say. how are the dead raised up and with what body do they come, we point them to the risen Christ. He is the pledge of our resurrection. Herbert Spencer said: 'Perfect correspondence would be perfect life.' Uninterrupted correspondence with a perfect environment Is eternal life, according to science. 'This is life eternal.' said Christ, thet they may know Thee and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent.' "Romanist. Quaker. Baptist, Presbyterian. Episcopalian. Methodist, all exclaim. We lov Him because He rtrst loved us ' Tried by time, persecution, sorrow, temptation, death tried, but true and sure. His truth shall stand when rolling years shall cease to move."
