As antique runners passed from hand to hand the sacred torch, so the generations transmit to the generations which succeed them all that they have of light and knowledge, leaving them as a heritage the care of continuing . the divine work of enfranchisement and of helping to dissipate the shadows of ignorance. Little by iittle these clouds are vanquished and disappear, and the touch of intelligence flames the more radiantly in the midst of the travailing masses. But all of a sudden a veil covers the torch—something surges up which seems like the darkness of another age. One feels that in a corner of this civilization monstrous things have place. Here they burn a woman accused of sercery ; there in Suabia a tribunal condemns to four days of imprisonment @ laborer who had disinterred the corpse of an infant He wanted to make brace‘lets of its finger nails, which, according to a belief held iu that country, constitute a sovereign remedy against colic.

As antique runners passed from hand to hand the sacred torch, so the generations transmit to the generations which succeed them all that they have of light and knowledge, leaving them as a heritage the care of continuing . the divine work of enfranchisement and of helping to dissipate the shadows of ignorance. Little by iittle these clouds are vanquished and disappear, and the touch of intelligence flames the more radiantly in the midst of the travailing masses. But all of a sudden a veil covers the torch—something surges up which seems like the darkness of another age. One feels that in a corner of this civilization monstrous things have place. Here they burn a woman accused of sercery ; there in Suabia a tribunal condemns to four days of imprisonment @ laborer who had disinterred the corpse of an infant He wanted to make brace‘lets of its finger nails, which, according to a belief held iu that country, constitute a sovereign remedy against colic. And all the steries of vampires, o: elfs, return to the mind with” all th: victims they have made and are makin; still.’ : It seems in reading such things tha; the ‘‘power of shadows’’ is still impenetrable to all that science has done and that, as I have said, the effort is vain.— Figaro.
