Aa Unitarians, we are trying to enlarge our views of life and of religion In proportion to our enlarged kuowledge of the place which that life uccuplri. We cherish therefore certain eternal principles which we may hold to sud build upon without fear that any change or revelation will overthrow or undermine. For Instance, we believe in mathematic. We acknowledge the utility uf mathematics, and we believe the science is based on certain verities certain truths that do not require any proof berause the human mind ia satisfied with their bare statement. We know that Euclid announced many of the absolute laws that govern mathematics. Euclid did not create those law and so we do not believe them imply for the sake of Euclid. He founj them here, and hr announced them, and w believe in them because the human mind would not be consistent with itself if It denied them. Things that are equal to the same thing are equal to each other" and all the other axioms ere and absolute truths, and If one were to them he would diselose a mental weakness which would exclude nim from the study and the uses of mathematics. We may say the same of music. There you have your octave. You cannot transcend It, you cannot evade it, you cannot deny it, upon it and the laws of rythm ail good music must Outside of theM laws one depend. has only a noise end a discord. We do not believe In music for Haydn's sake nor for Bache Mke, nor for the Mke of any other man who hss seen and announced the eternal laws without which no genuine music can be produced. We believe In those laws because It is a necessity of our nature to believe the human ear and the human mind, which receives the report transmitted to It by the human ear, are shocked if thne laws are not obeyed. They will not endure the lie of lnhannony. The same Is true of chemistry. Chemistry must assume the existence of certain Irreducible elements. And those elements will combine under certain conditions Is obedience ta certain changeless laws, with e promptness and a precision which never falls. And If it were otherwise human life would have no poaslblllty of continuance. Now we do not believe In those marvelous laws of chemistry for the sake of the great scion tuts who have revealed them.

A. Olsen, Grocer, 2259 Washington Ave. Rev. Lewis G. Wilson, before an appreciative audience la K. of P. hail, last Sunday evening, spoke on The Future of Liberal Christianity, and he said: Before we can consider with any practical assurance the future of lib eral Christianity tM- average thoughtful miud would like u be convinced that religion itself is bound to have any future at all. We all know that there are many books written, maga-xin- e articles prepared and addresses made to sliow that religion itself is little else than the survival uf the superstitions and fears of antiquity. If. however, religion Itself Is some thing that la coeval with human nature, in the same sense that memory gnd au Helps t ion and self consciousness are; If It must exist In the unit sense that in the body, the heart and the brain and the lungs must exist In order thst the body may have a future, then we may proceed to discuss some particular Interpretation of religion, like the liberal Christian Interpretation of it. In a very general way religion la regarded from two opposite points of view. A large majority of Christians think of religion as something which lies outside of human nature, towards which human nature is essentially antagonistic. It Is something which is to be secured from without by means of certain ceremonies or rites tit sacraments or public professions. Take, for Instance, the great sacerdotal establishments. Their teaching is that religion lias been deposited within these establishments, and that through thi-i- r functionaries and prieats it la distributed In various way to individuals The man who lies at death's door, fur instance, may send for hia priest who will administer the sacrament which assures to him all the benefits of religion. A large part of the Protestant, world Is taught that religion is something which the Individual la to get. Careful examinations of the conditions among the Ignorant colored people of the South go to show that among them religion 1 thought of as something physiological. That Is, during their revivals, when a person feels certain senMtions like the tingling of the nervei of the hack, or the nervous thrill and excitement attending the sense of fright or ecstacy, he exclalma that he has "got religion." Throughout rvangelicitl orthodoxy, with greater or leaser degrees of refinement, the sa me general view of religion is sustained. Religion la regarded as a commodity, which . one must secure. g If it were foreign to human nature itself, a unit of insurance against fatal Ills of sin and error - d .

It la Indeed the most Important energy in human jiature with which we have to deal, for It very largely determines the character and effectiveness of all human affairs. This general vew has taken possession of many thoughtful minds, especially within .recent years since the theory of evolution has been announced. When the human mind came to It became also conscious of that which wsa other than self. In the course of time It realized that within Itself there waa the eternal ense of right and wrong, guiding and commanding it. Then In the course of human experience the sense of mystery was gradually developed, and so the little human soul found itself WITH OLD HARNESS to adjnat Itself to external compelled a ninaa-aconditions on the one hand and the may cause more the r,0"B injnriee and somo-I- . ever present sense of God on the oth rt th ,r tte results Aa er, and nut of this situation have deJ ftn responsible, but veloped all the great marvels of the spiritual life, and we find today ' that religion has gathered force and auThe kind we sH have thority within from which humanity NO WEAK could not.

Co. the forces paramount of the spiritual life should be wisely controlled and applied to the welfare of society. In order that anything may seem permanently worth while It must be approved by the human conscience, it must be divinely true. It must be religions! If these forces are not controlled by a. the knowledge we can acquire and all the careful scientific experience we can bring to bear upon them, we must either sliow them to languish and disappear, or they will make humanity ridiculous in Its own eyes. Aa they have done In the past and as they are doing In the present, when not wisely directed, they will breed a race of dancing dervishes.
