***TO<*d that the old globe
on the brink of hell,
rolls impotently on.
SSi: Imndred years before the
oC Christ we find Jeremiah
ia * desivairing mood, and advis-
tas: his people to gird them-
fires with sackcloth and “lament
howl.” Yet the barbarians
whom he so greatly feared were
(iMlly licked and little of Jere-
i’s prophecy came to pass.
And we might take a cue
from this first of the saints
when things ’seem all awry.
Though Jeremiah lamented and
howled with his brethren he
did not quite reach the point
that he believed all was lost.
He hired himself a newspaper
man named Baruch and had
him write some pamphlets set
ting forth the old sage's ideas
about what should be done.
These were read to the peo
ple and we must believe had
some effect in righting things.
Finally we find him saying that
the throne of the Lord 're-
maineth from generation to
generation." Things were look
ing up again! The world would
not pass away after all; not
yet. Not until another prophet
took up the howling.
Such a one we find giving voice
to the sorry state of things al
most a hundred years ago. This
from Harper’s Weekly of 1857:
Anxiety Comes Of Age
“It Is a gloomy moment in his
tory. Not for many years—not
the lifetime of most men who
-'there - been so
much grave and deep apprehen
sion; never has the future seem
ed too incalculable as at this
time. In France the political
caldron seethes and bubbles with
uncertainty; Russia hangs as
usual like a cloud, dark and silent
upon the horizon of Europe;
while all the energies, resources
and influences of the British
Empbe are sorely tried, and are
yet TO be tried more sorely in
coping with the vast and disturb
ed relations in China.
Of our own troubles (in U.
8.) no man can see the end.
They are fortunately as yet
commercial; and if we are only
to lose money, and by painful
poverty be taught wisdom—
the wisdom of honor, of faith
of sympathy and of charity—
no man need seriously despair.
And yet the very haste to be
rich which is the occassion of
this wide-spread calamity, has
also tended to destroy the moral
forees with which we are to
resist and subdue the calam
ity."
And now w'e have the Russians
in our hair, and the Chinks, and
assorted cattle the world over.
But this does not mean that
there will not be a brighter day.
The prophets of doom can be as
today as they were 2600
ago, or 100 years ago.
