Excerpt from Bible TragediesAT the suggestion of certain of my people who listened to these simple Sun day evening sermons and thought them worthy of a wider congregation I have committed them to the types, difiidently, yet with the earnest hope of diminishing, at least by one, the tragedies which fill a Father's heart with sorrow and a beautiful world with gloom.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and cl...

Excerpt from Desert, Pinnacle, and MountainBy pride the angels fell, says a great voice. It is not clear, however, What pride would mean to an angel, or what would be the pathology of such a malady, or the prognosis either. Therefore the angels may keep on falling, or may sturdily hold their shining seats forever, so far as practical bearing upon our lives is concerned.

Excerpt from Men Who Missed the TrailBut the Morgue contains notables only. You could not expect a newspaper to be interested in all the clerks and mechanics of a community.

People thronged the streets, and nudged one another excitedly, and said "There he goes - the man who sank the Spanish fleet." So he did, ...

Excerpt from Desert, Pinnacle, and Mountain I have heard this passage inter preted in such fashion as to spoil it - for me. It is representative of course. The three temptations, de scribed here, epitomize all tempta tions. But this record is not akin to a problem play or a problem novel, arranged by the author so as to point his moral It is record of the moral strain and anguish of a Man who, because he was man, from crown to foot, is repres...
