The Rev. Dr. Rusell H. Conwell, in an address on "The New View of the Christian Life" at a meeting in Boston, is reported by the Boston Herald to have said,—

Prepare yourself for heaven, was the teaching twenty-five years ago. Jesus never prayed that any one might go to heaven, but that heaven might come on earth. The change that has come in this respect is one of the most remarkable in the history of human thought. We have come to the belief that there is something to be done in this world.

We are learning now that God's great purpose on this earth is to develop the earth and make perfect manhood and womanhood. The time is coming when man will be perfectly healthy, his mind will be perfectly clear, his moral character absolutely pure. The time is coming when woman shall be as beautiful as the angels, in health, in thought, in life, in character.
