* Its value lies in its promise rather than in any fulfilment It displays extensive reading and foreshadows a method by which the writer's philosophy could be used in a con- structive Christian ethic ; but beyond this, as might be expected, it does not go. Dr. McGosh's last public appearance of note was at the International Congress of Education held in connec- tion with the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago in July, 1893. One of the members of that body has written that in the main he wa...s the most noted figure of the assemblage. In spite of his extreme age he ex- hibited much of his native vigor and adroitness when called on to preside, quelling the unruly, checking the eccentric, and promoting wise discussion. His own contribution was a paper on "Reality: What Place it should hold in Philosophy?" which is printed in the proceedings of the congress. The many famous men pres- ent delighted in showing deference to such a brilliant old age, and cordially paid their honors to the Christian philosopher who at eighty-two was not only a Nestor in council but also like an Ajax in battle.
