Tbe mind goes back over the time that htt interven ed tince the fir it Christum, and we marvel at the change tbat has been wrought. Before this event, man bad no hope of a life beyond the tomb. All appcrtaiuiug to the fu ture of the soul was terribly uncer tain. Many problems of science had bvon solved by tho learued, but the great question t Where goes tho soul sftur it loavos tho body, L-afSod the sagos and philosophers of aiti quity. It was not until the cotuiog of Him, who noarly nineteen centur ies ago la on his mothor'a brent in a manger in Hethlehem, that 'life and immortality were brought to light" What was unanswerablo by a Plato and a Socrates was solved by tbe son of tbe carpenter. Wbatau iutluenco this wonderful character has exortod on mankind.
