PentecOst-the Pentecost is the
historic beginning of the Christian
Church, Before that crisis the Church
was an ideal, prophecy. Jesus in his
earthly ministry furnished the Rock for
it's basis; he established its ordinances;
he appointed and ordained it's first mem
bers and apostles. BUTT was not until
the baptism of the Holy Spirit came
upon the Church that the ideal became
visibly real, and the prophecy found
manifest ulfilment.-Then the wait
ing Christian Church blossomed into
power and beauty. Even as the orchard.
buds are prepared and preserved for the
May biossoming, so had the Church. by
the personal ministry of jesus, been pre-
pared for the Gift of Power, the Mani
festation of the Father, the Adoption OF
the Holy Spirit, which it received sud
denly and emphatically, fifty days after
Christs resurrection. Then into the
waiting body of the Church, as into the
body of the first Adam, was breathed
the Breath of Gods Life.-Pente-
cost is thus forever memorable as the
historic beginning of the Christian
Church.

The Builders of the Pyramids.

A personal inspection of the pyramids
of Egypt, made by quarry owner, who
spent some time recently on the Nile,
has led him to the conclusion that the
old Egyptians we're better builders than
those of the present day. He states that
there are blocks of the stone in the pyra-
mids which weigh three or four times as
much as the obelisk on the Embark
ment. He saw stone whose estimated
weight was eight hundred and eighty
tons. But then the builders of the pyra
mids counted human labor lightly.
they had great masses of subjects upon
whom to draw, and most of their work
was done by sheer manual labor and
force. There are stones in the pyra-
mids, thirty feet in length. which tit so
closely together that penknife may be
run over the surface without discover
