of the small hotel where he was stopping
to attend divine service at the local
church and listen to the sermon of q eel
ebrated eastern brother who was to
occupy the pulpit The little church
was crowded with country folk, all
anxious to hear the popular preacher,
and the latter evidently thought it
good chance to awe the people with his
erudition. Accordingly he employed all
of the polysyllabic words he could think
of in his discourse, and his congregation
was at loss to know what he was get
ting at. It put the travelling man to
thinking hard, too. Finally, wishing to
impress his hearers with the omnipo-
tence of their Maker, the clergyman
said solemnly: "God made me;" and
then, after an impressive pause. he add
ed: "and he made daisy" And the
travelling man nudged the landlord and
whispered: ''That'sa good betting point.

The doctor has this to say about tradition,
history and fact before beginning the real
work of the book:
"Are the places that ] see in Palestine
and Syria and the Mediterranean isles the
genuine places of Christly, patriarchal
and apostolic association? Many of them
are not, and many of them are. We have
no sympathy with the bedwaring of
tradition. There are traditions contra
dicted by their absurdity, but If for
several generations a sensible tradition
goes on in regard to events connected with
certain places, / am as certain of the locali-
ties as though pen and document had fixed
them. Indeed, sometimes tradition is more
to be depended on than written commune
cation. A writer may, for bad purposes,
misrepresent, misconstrue, misstate; but
reasonable traditions concerning places
connected with great events are apt to be
true. | have no more doubt concerning
the place on which Christ was crucified
or in which Christ was buried than / have
about the fact that our Lord was slain and
intombed. But suppose traditions contra
dict each otherf Then try them, test them,
compare them as you do documents. It is
no more difficult to separate traditions
true and false, than apocryphal books from
inspired books. Do not use the word tra~
dition as a synonym for delusion. There
is surplus of Christian infidels travelling
the Holy Land Who are from scalp to heel
surcharged with unbeliefs. A tradition
may be as much divinely inspired as a
book The scenery of Palestine is inter
Joined, intertwisted, interlocked with the
Scriptural occurrences The learned Rit-
ter, who has never been charged with any
weakness of incredulity, writes: No one
can trace without joy and wonder the veri-
fication which geography pays to the his
tory of the Holy Land

conditions, viz: The people are to or

ply for one or more thousand dollars
for irrigation purposes, to be expend-
ed as per act of cons ress; no person
shall have over $4,000 until all ap-
plicants for employment shall have
had at least one months work; no
more than one dollar per day shall
be paid until after April /, 1891, after
which no eXhOrbitant wages are to be
paid, and the money obtained from
