The GOODNESS OF GoD IN PROVIDING FooD FOR HIS

providence is the variety of means which he puts at
command in the different parts of the world. In every
region find plants suited to the soil and climate and
adapted for the and advantage of the inhabitants
and may generally discover some circumstances at
tending them which render those native productions of
peculiar value to the people who possess them
In Lapland and Norway the reindeer that most use

sustenance OF the inhabitants They drink the milk,
they eat the flesh, they make clothing of the skn and

But what would become of the reindeer there not

herds are supported-the reindeer moss? No vegeta

many miles together the surface of the sterile soil is

moss or hchen, springs up and hourishes. Here the
reindeer pastured and whatever may be the depth

metaphysical and religious Never was
there more favorable opportunity for th ose
wishing to investigate spiritual matters.
They can here learn that mystery is Il

"COme, now let US reason together" Why
this fear of prejudice? Truth alone is sacred
