In the J-ihtiary Woman's Home Companion Charles E. Jifferstn, pas tor of the Broadway Tabtrnacle(New York City, writes ah interesting war article in which he comments as lol lows on the question as to whether this war proves Cnris'i&nity a failure: "If someone snys that the .claims of the Church have all beea shatter ed, the reply is that the Church makes no claim except on conditions that must be met. It promues nu victories except to hearts that sur render. It predicts no paradises un til men have in them the mind of Jesus. Christianity is an invitation. If the invitation is not accepted, it can do no mighty wirks. Christian ity is a revtlation of the heart of God. If men refuse to become like him, the world remains in darkness. There is no failure then in the Chris tian religion. Ihe failure lies with tno men who refuse to receive' it. If Europe had been Christian this war would never have been. The agony of Europe gives new point of the question: 'How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation?' It illUB' trates the meaning of Cbridt's figure of the man who was foolieh enough to build upon the Band. It pours a blazing light around the Apostle's great declaration: There is none other Dame under he wen given among men, whereby we must bo taved.'

He is a man ad mirably equipped for the position to which he aspires, as he is a long and well trained jurist, of exceptional men ta1 ity, fearlessly honest in his convictions, and with an experience varied and extensive in its nature. "Nature has been, most kind to this man, having engrafted into him a high order of intellect, a person ality of irresistible magnetism and an energetic desire to do things. He has always been a working Democrat, a leader at all times in his party's councils, and by reason of the character of the man and the ability he possesses, if elevated to the position of judge of the court of appeals of this commonwealth, would at once take front rank among those occupying that important posi tion in Kentucky, and reflect credit not only upon himself, but upon the constituency which wisely placed him there."
