The Color Of Ada m and Eva

II was an American clergyman who
held the theory that Adam and Eve
we're black people. His idea was that
when man appeared on the earth the
whole climate Of the globe was as hot as
nowadays in mid Africa. and so our first
parents were necessarily as dark as ne
groes. When the ages rolled on and the
northern climate became colder, man
took to wearing clothes and dwelling
under shelter, with the result that his
skin was bleached and he became q
white being. while the negro In the tor.
~ sope kept his original color.

long-spun-out romance fell into my
hands while travelling, and l thought
I'd beguile an hour or SO in reading
a chapter here and there.
But less than an hour was sufficient
70 excite such profound disgust at the
book that caught my youthful fancy,
that I tossed it aside with contempt
How q grown-up person with any lit

Is past my apprehension. 1t Is vile
story, vilely told. In contrast TO this
could not help but think Of my read
ing Of The Antiquary' for the second
time after the lapse Of 80 years. The
grace Of its telling and the charm OF It's
characters were even stronger than in
those early days. The product OF the
master appeals to all generations, and
the time will never come when such
beautiful stories as The Antiquary'
will not count their readers by tho tsns

tories thousands of heartfelt testi-
monials of gratitude" from those bene-
fitted and cured, in all parts of the world.

late. Simply write T. A. Slocum, M. G..
