. Describing tho Bishops at - the Lambeth Conference, a London paper writes: "There were somo with faces like a sacrament. To look upon theni was to feel assured of tho possibiblity of an unseen world. Others there were, IcUu and ascetic, with thin-ljrvoed, tight-cloEod moutlis, and faces of fanatics. You might torture them, yoit felt, hut nover move them by a hair'sbreadth from their purpose. Somo hnd tho faces of statesmen, clear-cut and determined; somo wero rugged and careworn, as if they had taken life hardly; somo enigmatic or neutral,. and a few who did not look tho part, who might, in a crowd, have been taken for any-' thing but bishops. Two native bishops, Bishop Oluwolo of Lagos, and Bishop Dornakal, of Southern India, arrested tho eye. Their coal-black faces showed up strongly, making pallid the countenances of their companions.'.'
