She is simply changing her grip. The religion of this centurywill be more practical, more real. It will deal with the days of the weekas well as with the Sabbath. It will be as patent in the marts of trade asin the walls of a cathedral, for a man's religion is his working hypothesisof life, not of life in some future world, but of life right here to-day, the only day we have in which to build a life. It will not look backwardexclusively to "a dead fact stranded on the shore of the oblivious yea...rs, "nor will its rewards be found alone in the life to come. The world of to-day will not be a "vale of tears" through which sinful men are to walkunhappily toward final reward. It will be a world of light and color andjoy, a world in which each of us may have a noble though a humblepart, --the work of the "holy life of action. " It will find religion in loveand wisdom and virtue, not in bloodless asceticism, philosophicaldisputation, the maintenance of withered creeds, the cultivation offruitless emotion, or the recrudescence of forms from which the life hasgone out.
