recognizes in him a brother --- the woman who has passed through the fiery furnace trusts him and is not afraid, for she knows that he understands. He, being near the Sun, knows that it shines alike on Saint and Sinner --- he feels that when God withholds his Sunbeams from his most disobedient child, then may he withhold his love from his most degraded brother or sister. Until that time comes he sees fit to love them. He does not Condemn --- he lets God exercise that prerogative, if he sees fit --- he does not feel fit to act as Judge. He believes that the Universe is conducted on sound business principles --- that God knows just what he is about and does not require any gratuitous advice from Man.

He works, and works well. He finds Joy in his work --- pleasure in the humblest tasks.

He is Simple, Loving, Kind. He is of the Elect. He is a prophecy of the Future. And he is on the increase. On the Tree of Life are many promising buds, which the Sun of the Spirit is nursing into beautiful blossoms that will yet fill the world with the delicious fragrance of Love.

There are certain people who have come into our midst silently and without announcement. They have found places waiting for them. They have come to prepare the way for their brothers and sisters who are in the womb of the future --- they are working quietly to prepare a home for their unborn brothers and sisters when they come. They are the forerunners of the Coming Race. Smiled at --- sneered at --- persecuted --- reviled --- pitied --- it matters not. God has sent them --- they have his message to deliver --that's why they are here. The world may raise its eyebrows --shrug its shoulders --- tap its forehead significantly --- but these new
