The Jananese Idea Of Hell.

One of the curious articles exhibited
at Tifany's is a scarf OF gray Canton
Grape, which psrtrays the internal
regions according to the Japanese idea.
The scarf Ia nine yards long and half a
yard wide. The first scene represents
satan on earth seeking new victims. The
arch-fiend appears as q sulphuTic, yellow
ish>green demon, with prOtrudin9 horns.
clOven feet and demoniacal expression.
Turing his victims into his net, and
plunging them into fiery depths. Thev
appear to fall into a nest of burning
scorpions, where they are tantalized bv
glimpse of their friends enioving them
selves in a lake of cool water, In the
next scene, Satan takes TIE form of an
immense dragon, with his human victims
crouching in terror st his feet. They are
mercilessly dragged into court, and the
Judge is represented as condemning them
to be tied to rocks and to have red hot
lead poured down their thToats. They
are then chased by hyenas through q field
of open knives and other sharp instru-
ments. The victims are next portrayed
as being tortured by having their limbs
sawn off and by being thrown into 8 re-
volving wheel OF FIRE. Satan next sp-
pears to be looking out for new victims
on a field of battle. Some of these
victims are made to hug red-hot stove
pipes, while Satan himself, with smile,
is tanning them. Others are swimming
in seas OF blood, surrounded by laughing
demons. Others still are seated in 3
caldron of ret-hot sulphur, having their
tongues pulled out. Some are repre-.
sented as carrying heavy burdens of coal
and throwing it into the fire to burn new
victims. His satanic majesty is next
represented as feeding his subjects with
rice, presumably to give them strength
with which to endure greater tortures.-

will say, Are We to have no word of God
no revelation? l answer, Yes; there is a
word of God-there is a revelation. The
word of God is the creation we behold; and
it is in this word, which no human inven-
ton can counterfeit or alter, that God
speaketh universally to man. 1t breaches ia
all nations and to all worlds; and this word
OF God reveals to man all that is necessary
for man to know of God. Do we want ia
contemplate His power? We see it in the
immensity of the creation. Do we want to
contemplate His wisdom? We see il in the
Interchangeable order by which the incompre
hensible whole is governed. Do we want tc
contemplate His munifoence? We see it in
the abundance with which He fills the earth
Do we want to contemplate His mercy? We
see tin His not Withholding that abundance
even from the unfaithfUl. In fine, do we
want to know what God is Search not The
book called the Scriptures, which any hu,
man hand might make, but the Scripture:
called the Creation"
