New Yohk, Juno G. Tho Uov. R.
Ilebor Nowton, D. D rector of All
Bonis' church, Now York city, Is at the
present moment ono of tho best talked
nbout clergymen in tho United Stilts.
Tho action of his clerical brethren in
asking Bishop Henry 0. Potter, of tho
dloceso of Now York, to npioint a com
mitteo of clergymen to examine tho or
thodoxy of Dr. Nowton, has drnwn tho
attention of Episcopalians to him in n
mnnncr and to mi extent which nro umaz
ing, nono tho less so because tho book on
which tho charges rest was published
four years ago.
To his friends and thoso whoagreo
with him Dr. Nowton is a man threat
ened with persecution from that element
inherent in overy church tho clement
which dreads chango of any kind before
all things. It is natural, under tho cir
cumstances, that they should regard tho
movement with somo bitterness, and
should donounco thoso who linvo taken
part in it as wilfully trj Ing to injure n
good man from envy or other unworthy
motives. To them tho freedom of dis
cussion and tho right of privato judg
ment aro very dear, and what thoy bo
lievo to bo an attack on thoso in the per
son of ono who has douo much to bring
that which is now in religious thought
before his hearers thoy strongly con
demn. To his opponents and thoso who dis
agree with him Dr. Nowton is a man
who, in his publishod utterances, has do
nied dogmas which they beliovo neces
sary to tho llfo of tho Protestant Episco
pal church. Thoy look on him as doubly
dangerous in that ho is making theso al
leged attacks from within, and thoy cry
aloud that ho whom thoy boliovo to bo n
traitor should bo thrown without tho
wall of tho camp. They declare that in
theso days tho church is threatened by
many enemies, and that it is tho duty o(
her children to defend her.
Tho truth of tho matter may bo found
somewhere between theso extremes, but
in order to understand it it is necessary tc
examino tho man Hobcr Nowton apart
from the doctor of divinity. To begin
with, ho is and always has been far more
of a preacher than a parish priest. His
intellectual faculties dominate his prac
tical sympathies; ho is moro at home in
tho polemical work of his calling thai)
in tho details of his parish labor. In all
ages and in all denominations thero have
been theso mon, and to them tho world
owes tho discoveries, tho definitions, the
elaborato arguments, tho great systems
of theology. A refinement of this clasi
of mind has produced the casuists.

As n student Dr. Nowton has great
gifts. Ho is possessed of n marvelout
memory, ho has read exhaustively and
ho has accumulated great stores of learn
ing. But ho is a man who lacks mental
perspective. If n subject appeals to hiic
it is with a forco and in n manner thai
excludes nil other subjects for tho tinu
being. Ho bends all tho power of hit
mind to that one thing, nnd ho follows it
out to tho logical end unflinchingly. He
does not seo that other things, wero ho tc
reflect on them, might alter tho conclu
sions to which ho has arrived. Wero lie
steering a ship ho would calculate the
direction of tho wind nnd fix his helm
ho would forget tho currents which
might prevent his nrrival at his destina
tion. Tho illustration Is not good, but il
will sorvo.
It may not bo denied that many of the
old beliefs, at ono timo part nnd pare el
of tho churches, aro not held to be no
cessary by many men today. This move
ment among men has gathered .strength
during tho present century. It wni
recognized by tho bishops of tho Protest
ant Episcopal church when they de
clared tho Apostles' creed and thoNicene
creed to contain nil dogma necessary. It
is making itself felt among tho Presby
terians in tho demand for a revision ol
the Westminster Confession. Thero is c
cry abroad among thu peoplo for mot
liberty in belief, it is contended, thai
conditions may modify that which we
must havo faith in. Tills movement,
rightly understood, is but tho postulate
of tho evolution in government, in cus
toms, in all else that affects society.
Tho effect of snch a movement on such
a man as Dr. Nowton might havo been
foreseen. Ho has taken hold of It, am1
has carried it on beyond tho point where
many men will follow. Ho 1ms not been
restrained by memories of tho past; he
has been unablo to seo that tho church
to which ho belongs rests on that, and
derives from It her right to hor present.
Dr. Nowton suffers. Ho is a deeply
religious man, aud ono who feels acutely
being criticised and misunderstood.
Thero is probably In his mind no difficult
whatever In reconciling hiB strongest
utterances with tho creeds; ho Is unublo
to understand how such difficulty may
present itself to others. Like others who
havo preceded him in this most unhappy
of all lots, that of tho path finder, tho
maker of tho way, ho Is a man who has
tho courage of his convictions, and ho
will fight for what ho believes to bo thu
truth. His request that a committee bo
appointed showed ho was ready and
eager for the fray. But for all that he
is destinod to Buffer much before the
emoko of battle has cleared away, and
it may be for thu time his opinions will
bo condemned. Ai.ritr.ri B.vi.cn.

Huw to Say "No."
It is strange how fow peoplo thero nro
who havo tho courago to say No, and
mean it A man may bo great in many
things, but when thu occasion arises
when Ids bettor intellect teaches him ho
should say No, ho weakens, nnd wo more
often hear him say, "1 don't think so,"
or somo such indefinite semi-ncgatlve.
It is much easier to say Yes this flatters
or pleases. But ovon if a decisive No
displeases your hearers It is much better;
moro honest aud moro manly to use tho
direct negative when you beliovo It
should be used. Many a life has been
made unhappy by tho indecision which
follows an ndvico where tho counselor
was too weak to say No.

How to Drink Milk.
Now milk does not agree with every
body. Doctors rocoiutnond an admix
ture of limo water and various other
things to rondor It acceptable to weak
stomachs. But all of theso plans aro in
judicious. No matter how weak a
stomach may Iw, milk can bu taken
without unpleasant result and with Im
punity by adhering to the followiug
directions. Sip it, aud mix tho milk
with tho saliva of tin mouth lsfforo
swallowing. This will causo it to rapid
ly aud easily assimilate with tho acids
of tho stomach.
