To-day is a time of ro-| mance to her people for they hae | discovered that a great world lies be-| yond the mists of the great Pacific, and new enterprises undreamed of} before have been opened up. As old| Kugland and Spain met on the seas; of the old world, Japan and Russia | had met in the east. The 'tuestion | of religion, too, is present in the | east and Japan js called upon tol choose Letween Buddaism and Shin- toism, The people are 'Plas tie and | * susceptible to influence--it is an age of receptivity. The nation's rise is not | due to accident but to a quality of in- ate greatness.

Not the prayer that seeks for personal gratification nor the prayer that invokes the aid of the Almighty when events cast a fateful shadow in thoughtless lives are needed now, but the pensive re- flection on the mercy of God and of his wonderful gifts to his children is necessary to sustain unbappy man- kind. The inhabitants of the earth must bow at the footstool of the Omnipotent in a spirit of humility, even as @did David 'when in great distress he cried out with unflinch- ing faith, "O my God, I ery in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. But thou art holy." Sych an invocation from a faithful and believing soul must be typical of the prayers of the multitude if the wordd is to receive the fruits of sal- vation. GIVEN A FAREWELL.
