It̂ was as if the placid humair'streani had ' been stirred up with a gigantic .̂ tic'k. ci'oating whirlpools which jvould not be stilled. Indeed, ' tlu' seething process has only increased with the years until' now the stream threatens to.overflow its banks and embark on an orgy of wild destruction.- , hr thp old days people generally, had little comfort of b(,(iy but mtich , of, mind. Their lives were comparatively ,-;iinpie. for most there was little opportunity of travel or of ' j ising above their circumstances, and, therefore, they ]ook(,'d to the existence beyond the grave to give» them what Ilicv Jacked on earth'. . r ' ' . - . ' Science and education, but particularly the former, largely (io.slroyed this faith in religion, but had nothing to put in its pbtcc.'
