Mohamet declared these were Asian , the wlfo ol 1'haroah Menopththah , thirteenth son of llamcsca II. This was the king whoso story ts told In Biodus , bofnro whom Moses ap peared anil on whom fell the plagues. Ills wlfo forsook the Egyptian faith and for this was cruelly persecuted by ber husband , Tlio Bfcoiul perfect woman , according to Mahomet hemet , was the Virgin Mary , a somewhat singular admission from such a source , al though , as la well known , Mahomet always professed admiration for the Christian re ligion. The remaining two were his own wife , Khadljah. whom he exalted as a prin cess among women. She was a widow when he married her and considerably older th.in the prophet. The fourth named was his daughter , the well beloved Fatlina. it was hardly to ba expected that lirooklyu club women would agree with this ancient esti mate , and the names propounded for tlilu honor were widely dissimilar both as to time and service. Ono girl gave ( ho Virgin Mary , Elizabeth , St. Ursula and St. Cecilia , to which those with lees icllglous bias strongly objected. Another list was Antlgono , Queen Eleanor , wife of Edward I of England ; Mine , Itolund and Martha Washington' , ublcb shows a decided preference for great his torical figures. A third member headed the list with the name of her own mother. The suggestion la made that such a discussion might prove Interesting wheti tlaja are dull. ITHEJFESTIVE BEAR.I ? { ! * P 3 [ T T Chnrnctcristlcs of Old Hriiin In Ills Haunts , Silas N. Locke , Uio.Jlptyury , Me , , bear hunter , was telling stgrlpi the otlior day , relates the Hoston GlojC ) , ( > l | "This , " said he , as 1m tnok , ' the skull from the shelf , "Is the skull of'tho largest hear 1 ever caught. "Look at his teeth and you will sco how the tusks are entirely worn off , showing that ho was a very old settler. When lying on his slilo In n natural position lie measured eight feet from his nose to the paws of his hind feet. "I do not know how much he weighed , but nil who saw him said ho was the largest bear ever seen In these parts. All his feet and legs were perfect , showing that ho had never been caught In a trap before , al though It U unusual to catch a fullgrown bear In this vicinity that shows no marks of some previous encounter with man. "I had a novel and exciting adventure In connection with the capture of this bear. About six years ago I set a bear trap , the ono I call 'Old Hcllable , ' on the mountain you see on the east sldo of the house , the place where I caught almost all my bears. "As I was busy nt that season on my farm I did not visit the trap for about a month. Then It was gone , and I was puz zled to trace It. "You understand that bear traps are not fastened , for the great animals are so strong and cunning that they would break the trap or chain or pull off a paw In the trap , or blto oft n foot , and thus escape In the first paroxysm that follows their capture. Consequently , the chain of the trap la fastened to the middle of a clog , which Is a piece of wood about three Inches In diameter and five feet long. "When caught , the bear starts off easily at first , but the clog soon begins to catch on projecting stones , bushes , stumps , trees , etc , and causes the bear to continually change his course , bowlldera him and pre vents him fronr going a long distance from the point where- the trap was set. "This trap had been set on the hard ground In the open pasture , and as there had been several rains I could not tell which direction the bear had taken. Dy crawling about the spot on my hands and knees I found , after n long Inspection of the ground , what I thought might be a faint trail , I followed this doubtful trail tea a cold spring at the edge of the bushes. "When I reached this spring I was more sure I was on the right trail , because when a bear Is caught In a trap or wounded It al ways seeks the nearest spring or brook and holds the Injured part In the water until the Inflammation Is subdued. The bank around the spring was broken down as though some heavy animal had been about the water .for some time. "Beyond the spring II found where the clog had caught on the bushes and broken them. I judged by th6 appearance of these broken bushes that the bear had been there about a week before , i Hub as they do not usually go far with the heavy trap , chain and clog , I expected1 to find him before night. | "I soon observed sqmo things that per plexed and mystified one , > The trail went between the trunks oft great trees so near ono another that the 'clotf could not pass between them. My first- thought was that the chain had slipped to ono end of the clog , as sometimes happens. "But the bioken bushes on each side showed that this had pot happened , be sides , I never know Old reliable to fall In an emergency , The oulyvay for the clog to pass between the- ' trees that I could think of was for some' person to take It In his hand and raise one 'thd till the long stick would go" through Uiq opening. "But I could not understand why any man should do this for the bear I had caught In my trap , that Is , If I had caught a bear and not a wild man. "In another place I saw where the clog had caught round a tree , and the bear , In struggling to escape , had walked round and round the trunk , winding the chain as ho went , as shown by the bruised bark. Bears , and In fact all kinds of animals , when fastened by chain or rope , often wind themselves In this manner. I had never known one before to get loose without as sistance. "Tho further I went the fresher the trail appeared. Toward the middle of the after noon I came to another spring , around which were bear tracks so large that I began to think I had caught the father of all bears. "I followed the trail till dark. It went north along the rough sides of the moun tain through forests that never felt the ax. I never knew a bear with trap , chain and clog to take a straight course before. "When It became too dark to see the trail I stopped for the night. As soon as the light became distinct the next mornIng - Ing I started again. "I had had no food for twenty-four hours , but I was too excited over the thought of the big bear to care much about that. "About noon of the second day I had followed the trail of the trapped bear to where a tempest had blown down many of the trees on the mountain side. By making detours I penetrated this windfall without difficulty , but I do not understand how a bear with trap , chain and clog over got through. "Very soon I came tp where a windfall had left n , small circular , cleared spot , al most surrounded by Ijcaps of fallen trees. As I followed the fresh trail through a narrow path Into this clearing place I heard the clanking of a chain. "Then from the bushes leaped the larg est bear I ever saw. With gleaming teeth nncl every appearance of being mad clear through the formidable creature came straight for me. "I wont out of that opening much quicker than I had entered. At every step I could hear the growling of the blg bear , the rat tling of the trap and the clanking of the chain. For a short distance I did the best sprinting In my life , "Then , glancing back over my shoulder , I saw that the bear , hampered as ho was , could not run so fast as I could , so I slack ened my pace. "I had no rlflo or other weapon , except n. short-Waded knife. " "When the bear found no could not catch mo ho turned and went in another direction , I followed him at a distance , BO that I could watch him part of the tithe. "The bear had gene only a short distance when the clog caught-on-a tree , and In struggling to get awayha'Wound the chain around the trunk. I supposed this fastened him securely. , " "Hut the bear , after hjHuflrst ( lurry was ever , stopped and looked nt the chain as if studying the situation , ' 'thfn' ' ho deliberately turned and walked nrou'hd he tree the other way till the chain was juu > vound from the trunk , after which ho uiovdd the clog with his paw so It would patta'J ' ) the tree. "This was the most rfciflarkablo exhibition of Intelligence In a har , Jhat over came within the range of rny ofcporlencc. "Soon after this eplsdjlt ? the bear came tea a aort of pinnacle on the jnountaln , After looking down the preolpJW'Us ' slope a mo ment the bear doubled /Himself up Into a sort of ball and went r&lfbk down , with the trap , chain and clog . , nirng and bouncing against the atones , inaldngva noise as if a loaded carriage had gono'craehlng down the side of the mountain. * 7 "I thought the bear had killed himself , but when I got where I could look down the precipice ho was not In sight , A mo ment later I caught a gljmpsp of him mov ing across a partially open place below , "At this point I gave up the chase , took a bee line for home , marking the bushes as I went , so I could find the spot again. When I reached home I found my wife bad become alarmed at my prolonged absence and aroused the neighbors , who were uearch- Ing 'for my body1 on the mountain. "The next day i started with my rifle , found and shot the bear. The Iron jaws of the trap had , worn the skin and flesh front the leg , leaving only the bono and cords , but ho bad kept the Injured leg In cold water so much that there was tie swelling or Inflammation , " Holier AViiM 4lie Mult. Between the close of the blueberry har vest and the time when the wild black berries bniuc rloo amous the fire-scarred clearings of Chick's Crossing , Maine , a > s the New York Sun , there are a few weeks of leisure , which the farmers devote to bee hunting. It. Is a season when the bees , having filled their cells with white clover honey from the second crop , take several days off and go to distant fields to look up pasturngo for the next year. As soon as the farmers know of this they are sure the comb Is heavier and sweeter than It will bo again , and proceed to rlflo all the nests they can find. By a coincidence the bears , too , find themselves without an occupation at this time , so they frequently come In contact with the farmers strolling through the woods upon the same errand as them selves , and several shrewd old bears annu ally lay down their lives In an Indiscreet effort to get at the honey stubs ahead of their human competitors. Two bears have died In Hancock county this year because they loved honey not wisely but too well ; and Hill Ilemlck find Con Archer , two hooppolo hunters of note , believed they had made plans to kill the third one. though subsequent events did not confirm their too sanguine opinion. The hunters were out for bees In full force through the foggy weather that prevailed early in August. They used all the ap proved methods of lining the bees to their nests , and hunted faithfully , but did not get more than fifty pounds of marketable honey In four days. They were weary and hungry and aching from many bee stings when on Thursday night 1)111 ) drew a geometrical metrical flgura In the mud and proved that the last ten bees ho had lined had all gene to the same tree , n crooked pine stub on the sldo of the Whale's Back , which was two miles away. Con , who did not understand Kuclld very well , was for waiting until mornIng - Ing and making the attack by daylight , but Hill reasoned him out of the notion. They found the tree soon after sundown. It was nearly as big and fully as ugly to look at as Hunker Hill monument , and up some twenty feet from the ground was a knothole - hole surrounded by a fringe of bees that had come outsldo to enjoy the evening. After the men had kindled a rousing flro of plno knots and resinous woods the tree was felled , and whllo the exasperated bees were dashing Into the blaze and dying by thousands the hunters took out as much honey as they could carry and went home , leaving the fallen trunk , which still held a hundred weight or more ot good honey , to Ho out in the woods , with no protection but the owls and foxes. The men made n costly mistake. They knew It ns soon ns they returned next morning and examined the tree. A bear had entered the cavity , and. In addition to eatlns a e p'l lot of honey , had broken up and mixed the remaining comb with bits of rottea wood. So the whole lot would have to bo strained before It wns sold. Whllo Hill was saying llbelous things abut the bear Con hunted about the place for tracks. There were plenty of queer- looking prints In the moss and fresh earth , most of which looked as If they had been made with a cnnt dog or the sharp end of a largo cano. Alongside of these were In dentations of some kind ot foot that seemed to bo shod with a cigar box ; and right among them all were a few common bear tracks. As a composite animal of thta character had never come under their observation before the hunters sent off for Jack Qllpatrick , who knows all about wood land monstrosities of every kind. When Jack arrived , twenty-four hours later , he said the tracks belonged to Ida , the maimed and three-legged tame bear that had run Sway from Babcock , of Bradley , more than a year ago. With Jack's aid they laid a deep plot to catch Ida. Of course , traps , deadfalls , spring guns and such devices as are used to destroy common bears were useless In this case. To get Ida they must discard the natural and try something that appealed to the spiritual sldo of her being. Archer had just what they wanted. He had a. frolic some Jersey bull , which , after a gay season in the highway , during which tlmo ho had tipped over and spoiled two bicycles as good as new , and forced the school ma'am to abandon traveling , was now n dishonored prisoner Insldo of a barbed wire fence In a back field. If Ida could bo tempted or coaxed to enter the yard they were sure the bull would attend to whatever might fol low. A section of the bco log , still contaln- lm ) a good lot of honey , was hauled to the up-hill sldo of tbo yard. Then , while Archer beguiled the bull with a red under shirt tied to the end of a short pole. Bill and Jack made the trap. lifting the splned wires up , they thrust ono end of the log Into the yard and left It poised so that a few pounds weight upon the lower end would causj It to tilt over and fall in with the bull. Great daubs of comb honey were then scattered oven the hills In lines which centered In the bull yard , after which the thiee hunters went away to catch more bees. Though two days and three beautiful nights passed the bull still pawed In his yard for new enemies to conquer , and Ida still hold aloof among the hills. Jack was sure she was near by , because he had noticed that the outer ends of the radiating lines of honey had been taken up and the circle was closing In rapidly. To his mind the bear was as good as caught already. Once insldo the yaid she could not get out through the wires of the ten-stranded fence oven If she had no foe to conquer , and when ho heard Archer tell what the bull hod done ho laughed In anticipation. The weekly paper containing an account of Bryan's re ception in New York came by mall and was read and discussed before the men thought of going to the yard again. Even then they would not have visited the place If they had not been afraid that the warm weather would spoil the bear's meat and make it unfit to cat. All three were going down to skin Ida , as they expressed it , tarly ono morning , and were more than half way to the back field when a boy cumo hurrying up and told Archer that his bull was dead in the yard. "Dead bull , Is it , eh ? " laughed Archer , assured that the boy had seen the remains of Ida. "Suro thnro wasn't two on 'em ono llvo and t'other dead ain't you , sonny ? " The boy was not only certain about It , but ho offered to bet 2 cents and a fishhook that he was right , which made such an Im pression upon the hunters that they quick ened tholr walk to a trot. Three minutes later they learned that the boy's eyes had not played him false , The bull had. died from disemboweling and from a variety of other mortal Injuries such as only a rall- roail claim adjuster can namo. He lay upon a mass of uprooted sorts and splintered 'rails that showed that the bear had gona in through the hollow log as the mon had planned for her to do , and that the jog had tipped up according to the prearranged schedule. In fact , the whole program had been carried out as well as anybody could desire until Ida had found herself face to face with tlio bull. Just how the bull happened to dlo and Just why Ida escaped nobody could tell , Two or three tufts of black bear's hair clinging to the wire barbs show where and how sha got away , A line of deep dents In the green sward , like the tracks of a boy who IB walk ing on stilts , are evidence enough to show which way Ida went. Beyond this all Is con jecture ; and somewhere In tha woods , a long ways beyond conjecture. Is Ida , di gesting her OJ'jner of bull beef and honey , A Ilnltlc llli Hum. Talk about running onto a soft thing old Nathan Knauff of Shrewsbury township , I > a. , struck it rich the other day , Nathan Is a bee hunter and ginseng root gatherer , relates the Philadelphia Times. Some sea sons ho picks up qulto a snug Hum digging ginseng , but his greatest hold is on wild honey. Ho has followed this business so long that he knows every hollow tree along Muncy and LoyuUock creeks , hut with all his knowledge lie found himself outwitted In one particular case. And ttrango an It may seem , It was a black bear that solved the mystery and made old Nato'a eyes bulge with wonderment. HP lives alone In a rutlo hut on tbo North mountain , having as his companion a ponderous < derous Newfoundland dog turned Bruno. The two are great chums. Nato lias another pet , too , ono that never got very familiar , because be U kept chained to t stake a rod or two from the home , Thid pet Is a 3 year-old black bear. Nate cuught the "critter" two years ago In a steel trpp that ho had set for a lyux. Ho 'nun fed bruin a great deal of honey In his raining of him , and It U probably a jscoiJ tblnc Hut he did cultivate a tnslo for this sweetmeat , for ho put his knowledge of the stuff to mighty good usa a week or two ago , according to Nate. "I've bin gatherln' honey nigh onto thirty years , " said the old man , "an1 I rutlter though thct I'd lamed 'bout every Hi hi * thar wus to know 'bout the business. Hut durn my plcturs of thar wusn't suthln' hepponei' ' t'other day thet knocked me clear ort'n mj bearing fcr a time , Ye see , I've bin turnln' over an' over In my mln' fcr well oulo five years the question whether lhar wus bees In a certain locality up near the summit o' the mountain yander , I'd sec the bees a flyln' up thar every season , thick an * fast , an' by the number as seemed to bo at worli 1 know'd as how thar must bo an all-ftrcO big swarm hived somowhar. Uvcry summer nn' fall I'd watch 'em , an * every summer an' fall I'd try my durndest to locate thrt tree. I know as how It must bo In a thick wood somewhar near1 the top o' the mountain , fer as soon as I'd git 'cross the divide I'd find the durn bees a 'werkln * back t'other rt'rcc- tlon. Waal , sir , I spent day artcr day a lookln' fer thet tree , but c'd'l find her no how , an' durn mo cf the thing didn't begin to worry mo to think thet 1 c'dn't run ber down , "Wool , this summer the pesky bees wus as hard at work ns ever an' I made up my mln' I'd find their roostln' place or bust n tryln * . I moseyed up 'long the sldo o' the mountain ono day durln' the airly part o' June , kcepln' a sharp lookout fer a tree thet I thought the bees might work In. When 1 got up to a high ledge o * rocks I kinder thought I heerd a buzzln' soun' 's though bees wuz workln' somowhar In the neigh borhood , an' durn me cf I didn't think 1 got a whiff of honey , but this , a course , wuz only 'maglnatlon. 1 gced and hawed an' tip-toed aroun' , a squlntln' au' a pct'Klu' Into the trees , but I c'dn't see hide nor hair o' the bees , though the more I listened the more sartln I wuz thel I heerd bees. "Waal , sir , I nosed aroun' thnr to nigh onto dusk , an' then I jlst hit on a plan thet never struck mo afore. I dctarmlned to go hum an' the next inornln * bring out Jack , the bar , and see If ho couldn't help solve the riddle. Yo see , I knows as how bars are mighty fond of honey , an1 Jack , especially , fer I'd fed the black devil lots of honey right along. Next mornln' 1 loosened Jack's chain an' takln' Hruno , tbo dog. too , wo all started fcr the top of the mountain. 'Twasn't more nor two miles from my place to the cliff whar I'd heerd the bees , so thet Insldo of on hour wo war on the groun1. 'Twas 'long about 10 o'clock when wo got thar. The sun wins shlnln' hot , an' durn mo cf the mlmito I sot foot on thot cliff ot rocks. I didn't hear bees ng'ln. An' Jack , ye orter a socd him. llo wuz as restless as a kitten , a prlckln' up hla ears an' a Riilffln' the air like as If ho smelled suthln' ho'd llko to hov. I knowed right off when the bar kcrrled on In this fashion thet I'd struck the right trail an' I Jlst tuk the chain and collar oft'ii tbo critter and turned him loose. I calkerlated on how I'd run the risk of loosln' the bar to find thet bco tree , fer I wuz nigh onto glttln' narvous over the dnrn thing. "Waal , sir , the funny part of the thing wuz when I let Jlr. Jack looao ho went nosln' 'long over the rocks slid of lookln' 'round the trees as I expected to see him do , an' I thought the durn fool didn't know as much 'bout flndln' the honey as I did. Hut thnr's whar I wuz fooled , fcr Insldo of five minutes the secret was solved. Jack rum maged down along the rocks , n cllmbln' over the edge of the cliff an' droppln' under a ledge like whar thar was a place nicely sheltered by a hangln' rock. Ho wimi't In thar no minute until I heerd an all-flrcd buzzln' sound an' the next Instant thar wuz a reg'Iar cloud of beeo a swarmln' out from under thet rock. Then I knows as how Jack bad found the bees. The dog nruno knowed It too , fer ho poked his tall between his legs and scooted clown thet mountain fer home. "Purty soon Mr. Jack cum a rollln' , turn- blln' out'n thot hole , a rubbln' his eyes , Thar wuz a perfect swarm of hees arter him , an' as ho med straight fcr me , I concluded I'd 'Journ fer n spell till the bees got bark to that roost. It didn't take Jack long to git the pesky bees brushed off in the bushes , an' when I cum lo examine him I foun' honey on his forcpaws , where he'd poked 'em Into the comb. Thot's what stirred up the bees so all-fired lively. "Waal , the long an' short of the hull thing wuz I went back the next day an' recon- noltered. 1 found thet the bees wuz workln' awteen the ledge of rocks through a rather Bmall openln' . When I stooped down an' looked up through the ciovlce I could see great walls of honeycomb plastered ag'ln the dry sides of the rock. I burned a lot of sulphur an' smoked the bees to death , then when the coast wuz clear I went to work a harvesting my find. I got nigh onto two bar rels of honey from thet rock , an' the purtl- cst , sweetest honey ye ever set eyes on. Waal , sir , I treated Jack , the bar , to a good squar meal of honey when I got hum , fer If It hedn't been fer him I guess I'd never found the pesky Bees' hangout. " FOUOIIT AT MIXDY'S LA.\K. Veteran WIio Six-lit Tnt'iity Yearn LooKInir for a 1'eiiHliiii. All of the soldiers of the war of the revo lution have marched over the brow of the hill of time Into the valley of the shadow. There are yet nine widows of revolutionary soldiers on the pension rolls. Nearly all of the soldiers of the war of 1812 have passed away , but there arc a few survivors yet in the land of the living. Every year a full brigade of the Grand Army of the Republic marches away from tlmo Into eternity. Ono of the survivors of the war of 1S12 , slnco deceased , was In Washington not long ago , relates the Philadelphia Times , seeking a pension to cover a period of twenty years , when ho was supposed to bo dead. Ills lieutenant reported him In the list of dead and missing after the hattlo of Lundy's Lane , and twenty years elapsed before he established the fact that ho was alive , and secured a pension. His name was John Mtnchell. Ho said : "When I enlisted In the Now York Volun teers I was n years old , and now I am 92. I enlisted In May , 1811 , In the six montlm' volunteers. I came from ICIngsbury , Wash ington county , N. Y , , and I was mus tered In at a camp at the mouth of the Gonesseo river. Colonel Hugh Dobbin , who uamo from near Geneva , was the colonel of our regiment , and bis son was the adjutant. I carried an old-fashioned flint-lock musket and cartridge box , and when on the march bad a knapsack on which the letters 'S. N. Y. ' were painted. Wo went' from tbo camp an the Oenenseo river to Canada , and had i number of llttlo skirmishes before the battle of Lundy's La no took place. Wo took a number of prisoners , 1 remember DUO poor British fellow whoso arm was so badly broken that It had to bo cut off , Ho was afterward In the hospital at Williams- vlllo with mo. When he was permitted to go out to walk ho did not like to go , 'be cause , ' ho said , 'tho people will abuse mo for wearing u red coat , ' I told him I would go with him , BO I used to walk with him. Ho had worked In England at the trade of stocking loom maker. WAS A HOT FIGHT. "There was no largo army at the batte | of Lundy's Lane , but It was a hot fight , I was In the rear rank. I remember when I first fired tbo man In front of mo wm HO cluse that my gun struck his blioulclcr ami was pointing In the air. The lieutenant came tome mo and asked mo what I fired In the air for , ind I showed him , The British were oil ris ing ground. They were formed In thn-c ranks and wo In two ranks. They would stand while a few shots were fired at them , and then run llko a flock of sheep. I could hear their cartridge boxes go 'flap-Hup' as they ran , Then they would form and fire again. It was dark then. I remember hear ing an olllccr shout : 'Ceaso firing ; you are firing on your own men ! ' Our lieutenant said ; 'It Is not so ; It is the British ; let us go at them , ' Then wo fired , and away they went again. Wo kept this up until wo came to level ground. I think we were within eight rods of them. When they fired we could sro their faces In the flash. Hy Ibis flash and tha moonlight I could see the cross-belt of a man In front of me , ami , say ing to myself : 'I think I'll get you before you get me , ' I filed , aiming right at the point on his breast where the belts crossed Hut I never Haw what happened , I was blinded by my own flro for a few inoiiu-nts and when preparing to reload my musket I was struck by a bullet. My musket fell , ami the lieutenant picked It up. I said : 'Let me have my musket ; I will he them ( Us ; I nln't hurt. ' He said : 'See. here. Mlnihell , you will blued to death' M want my nins- kel , ' I aald ; 'I don't want to be disarmed l > y the red-coals. ' 'Never mind the musket , ' he said ; 'Undo Sam will take rare of that. ' WAS IT A IMtKSI'NTIMliNT ? "So 1 retreated , " he continued. "When [ had cone a little nay a ball whizzed by lay head , and I laid tu myself : 'They mean to kill anyet. . ' I wrnt back lo an old UOUHO that was Used AS ft hospital and lhe.ro the surgeon made a push In iny arm And ex tracted the ball , which had struck the bono and did not go through. It hail flattened out , so that It was An Inch and a quarter wide. It seemed to have been split before It was fired. o It would open and spread out. I remember the watchword for that night. H wns 'Where are they ? ' Some people believe In presentiments. 1 don't know anything about them , but there Is a , curious thing connected with my wound. The evening before the battle. I WAS talklm : with my comrades about being wounded. I remember snylng that I did not want to bo hit at all , but if I had to bo woutuled , and hnil my choice , 1 would rather have the ball right there , and 1 put my finger on the tl muscle of the left arm. I thought I would 4 ] rather be hit there , as n wound there would 3f not disable my right arm and hand. Well , the next day the ball struck AS near where I put my linger on my nun as could be. "That night after the silicon got the bail out 1 went to the enmp. In the morning I got Into a wagon to rlilo to Kort Krlo. I wns fthnken lip so In the wagon nnd the pain In my arm wns so great I couldn't stnnd It. So t told the driver to let mo out. nnd I tramped sixteen miles. Tor most of the way 1 was bnrefootcxl.

'Though ye have lien among the pots yet shall yo bo as the wings of a dove , covered with silver and her feathers with yellow gold. ' "Kor seventy years the ark of the cove nant had lain away In the forest city of Klrjath Jcarlm , on the Phllllstluo border , The hour had come for Israel to recover her treasure ) and set It In Jerusalem with God's blessing and in national Joy , and Israel should come forth llko the doves at night fall on tbo strong wings of faith and la power and beauty.

' "Faith Is democratic , dees not ask to know your social set or sco the house you llvo In , or know the books you read before It endows with power and beauty. Only 'Glvo Mo thy heart' Is the challenge of the cross , and though you are prostrate nmld the rub bish of social and moral disorders and counted as ono of earth's unfortunate ones , God will lift up thy head and endow with n new set of affections the hour you believe in Jesus and his shed blood.
