Baptist church on Sunday afternoon. {The servics was conducted by Rev, {J. 8.

The higher critics of the Bible and {of religion were strongly condemned {by Miss Pankhurst. She termed thair criticism "lower chiticism," because {it was based upon the scholarship of | {the eighteenth century, which has | {been shown by present day scholar- | ship to be full of error. "For in- | stances, knowledge that was held as [truth in the eighteenth century is to- {day found by modern scientific dis- {covery to have been erroneous.

MANIFESTATION OF CHRIST Sermon In St. George's Cathe dral by the Bishop of Ontario. The Bishop of Ontario, who was the preacher in St. George's cathe- dral on Sunday morning, spoke on the Epiphany, or the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles. His text was St. John xiv.,, 22: "Lord, how Is it that Thou will manifest Thy- self to us and not unto the world." At Treguier, in Brittany, his skull | is kept in a golden shrine, but his tomb is outside of the church at Mindhy, 4 meighboring village. Brittany is famed for her religious festivals. This province has kept! alve all of her traditions and cust- oms since the dawn of Christianity. | They have come down to the present day with little change. Through the Arch They Go. The first followers of Christ had hoped for the re-establishment of the kingdom of Israel. They had looked for the manifestation of worldly power, but it was a king- dom of love that Christ had come to found. His desire was to rulc over the hearts of man and by them to establish His kingdom upon earth. His answer was that the dfs- ciples were to manifest His king- dom in their lives. "If a man loye Me he will do My works; and My Father will love him and Wao will come unto him, and make out abode with him." That was the ideal dis- cipleship in individual lives. During the late war, and indcel to/day, men, and not only unbeliev- ers, but humble followers of Christ, ask the question, "Why does not God manifest His power and ena allthis strife and misery?" If we think a moment we will remeber that one of our Lord's temptations in the wilderness was just that, to accept "the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them," by turning aside from His purpose and avoid- ing the way of the cross. : But a great demonstration of His power was not God's way of estab- lishing His kingdom on earth; it was to come slowly, love working all the time like the leaven in the parab'e. turning men's hearts to their heay- enly Father; unosténtatiously-- "the kingdom of God cometh not with observation." and To the traveler, there could be no | more delightful time to visit Brit- | tany than when the festival, known | as "Pardons," takes place at Mihiny. The # is crowded. = The | streets are filled with people from far and near, who are making a pil- grimage to the tomb of St. Ives Hel- oury, . They all go to the churchyard where this simple tomb without an inscription is the object of their pil- grimage, Here they wait In Mhe--nrich and poor, old and young, aristocrats ani peasants--each with some hope in his or her heart, firmily believing it will be realized on this day of "Par- dons." They believe that if they crawl through the arch of this tomb on their irands and knees they will gain strength from the contact with the ground where the saint lies buried. Through the arch they go--the pic- turesque peasants, en in their white flowi: ps. in the jaunty jackets, Smart people from the cities, and swaggering soldiers brush against & fisherman fresh from the sea or a smub provincial merchant. They arise from the earth with mud on their , but with the light of h their eyes and com- fort and imspiration in their souls.
