aad happiness that k

the kxatloa of the place which k
woven into the majestic llnea of
MIKoa in hk pictures of the crea
tion aad the tragedy of the garden.
Nevertheless, the strength of human
interest to the facta of human origin
makes the location of the Garden of
Eden one of the fasdaatlag pursuits
of the agea. Aa there k no known
spot upon the face of the earth that
corresponds with the features attrib
uted to the location of Eden, and as,
even admitting the validity of the
Bishop Ussher chronology, there haa
ekpsed suMcIeat time for the utter
transformation of the physical as
pects of Eden aa described ia Geaesis.
the hunt for the actual Eden seems
hopeless.
The cradle of the race undoubtedly
Ilea somewhere In the east aad. ac
cepting the Indo-European theory of
race Identity of the Caucasian races,
it would seem as though the approx
imate birthplace of this branch of the
human family could be placed. Bat
ethnologkta are themselves astound
ed as they endeavor to track the path
of humaalty and to trace the breakup
of the race lato Its many branches,
through the evidence of language and
other enduring records. They are
nonplused and cannot arrive at a
common agreement excepting that,
after research has reached to the
farthest limit the borderland of civ
ilization appears to be brought little
nearer. '
Nevertheless there is no tradition
among the nations so entrandng as
that of Eden. Hardly a natloa of the
andent east but that retains the story
among ita folklore. But the tradition
haa traveled westward aad has spread
over the whole world. Evea the
Sandwich islanders, the people of the
Pamirs, and it k even said the Eski
mos, have traditions of Edea not dis
similar from the story of Genesis. The
records of the Aztecs disclose the
story of the serpeat delineated unmis
takably In the picture language of
that andent people. But while the
valley of Mexico has the credit of be

the location of Eden, on the other

for the honor, it being claimed that
Edea was wiped out by the advance
of the Ice sheet during the glacial
ages. South and Central America,
Mexico, the Sahara desert, the
jungles of the dark continent almost
every tropical country haa its de
feaders in this respect
The point of these claims usually
rests upon evidence of the existence
of a race earlier than any of which
history has knowledge. But as these
andent stocks are scattered through
out the globe, this appears to prove
nothing. But tradition, world-wide,
enshrines the Garden of Eden among
the beliefs of widely dissimilar peo
ples, and this fact Itself indicates the
early identity of the races of man
kind. The Mexican tradition, relating
as it does to tills continent, has es
pecial laterest This assumes there
was a race of human beings on this
continent many thousands of years
ago, and this Is to some extent con
finned by discoveries along the Pa
cific coast of South America. Traces
of a race and a civilization have been
discovered there, which go far back
of recorded time. It also seems that
hi some way or other there was land
connection between America and the
east This appears to be given some
plausibility by explorations of the
oceans. There are reasons for believ
