"Is .tl'i_cre any theory. philos- ophy, or creed," says our author. “is there any system ror culture. any formulated method able to meet and satisfy each separate item of this agitated pool of hu- man life? /-By which they may be guided.‘ by which hope. by which look forward? Not a mere illusion of the craving heart- something real. as real as the solid walls of fact against which,‘ like drifted seaweed. they ‘are dashed; something to give each separate personality i sunshine and ll. flower in its own existence now: something to shepe this mlilion-‘handed labor to an end and outcome that will leave more sunshine and more flowers to those who must succeed? Some- thins real now. and not in the spirit-land.‘ in this hour now,as I stand and th sun burns.
