...life must at this moment be felt beyond its complexity and diversity. You must see how by one flash of vision that only in goodness and unselfishness is there the final peace, and that peace, though we come to it by many roads, is one great city of God for all. It would be all theory and speculation if there were not God-if around all our confusion and perplexity there did not rest the boundless certainty and strength and strength is faith. Therefore believe ! Therefore belief ! Belief is the rest of the partial on the perfect, of the temporary...
...body, advocates the seating of the cabinet in Congress. "Babes in the Wood" is one of Olive Thorne Miller's bird articles. Agnes Repplier writes a defence of villains in fiction. Her article bristles with literary allusions, but bears traces, as her work has of late, of "demnition grind." "God and his World" is ingeniously reviewed with columns of quotations.

No men who died peaceably in bed could expect to have their souls mount to Walhalla, the palace of happiness, where the warrior's life was so idealized as to be a continual round...
...said in brief that by the aid of excavations we are approaching a just appreciation of the Greek religion,-a religion which has supplied later religions with almost as much as the religion of Israel has. While Israel has given Christianity the idea of an all powerful and omniscient god-head, the Greek religion has contributed divine love, grace and purity. Mercy is the predominating quality of all Greek gods and goddesses, of Apollo, Aesculpius, Dionysus, and Demeter. The religion is polytheistic, but its polytheism is more monotheistic than monotheism, for each state in Greece was independent, and each...
