Noah,u Ark.

It was on Nov. 16, B. c. 234s, that
Noah and the animals came out Of the
ark, according to Archbishop Ussher's
chronology. Several experts have cal
culated that they had enjoyed ample
accommodation in the ark. Sir Walter
Raleigh computed that there were
eighty-nine distinct species Of beasts
to be provided for. or, lest any should
be omitted, a hundred several kinds"
He allowed that one elephant would
want as much space as four beeves and
one lion as two wolves. and found that
there was room for 81, or, say, 120
beeves. 80 sheep and GA wolves, which
sufficed One story or room would hold
these, another their meat, a third the
birds and their food, and still there was
space for Noah and his family.

chamber would be altogether out of
order, but there is a pleasant fiction
that it is a purely private arrangement
to be made at the discretion Of those
concerned. This is true enough to a

but pairing on any great party division

member who desires to pair at such q

done safely through the whips and not
