THE INTERNAL REGIONS.
How They Are Depicted In Buddhism
and Islamfsm.

How They Are Depicted In Buddhism
and IsIamism.
The Internal regions of Buddhism
are horrible. They comprise great
hell and 1916 lesser bells. In these
bells, according to the sculptures of
the Buddhist temples, men are ground
to powder and their dust turned into
ants and fieas and spiders. They are
pestled in Il mortar. The hungry eat
redhot iron balls. The thirsty drink
molten iron.
Islamism says of the internal re-
gions: They who believe not shall
have garments of fire fitted for them.
Boiling water shall be poured on their
heads and on their skins, and they
shall be beaten with maces of IRON"
In the Scandinavian mythology, the
mythology of Odin and Thor, we are
told that lin NaStrond there is a vast
and direful structure, with doors that
face the north 1t is formed entirely
of the backs Of serpents, Waited to-
gether like wickerwOrk. But the ser
penis heads are turned toward the in
side of the hall, and they continually
send forth floods of venom, i'll which
wade all those who commit murder or
forswear themselves"
In the past Christian clergymen
loved to describe hell. The present
tendency, however, is to avoid discus
sion of this place-to dwell upon the
gentler and more lovely side of Chris
tianity-EXchangc

NapOIeOn'S Outrider.

Wernet, NapoleOns Outrider, once
saved his emperor's life. 1t was after
the abdication of Fontainebleau and
when Wernet drove Napoleon away
from the palace that he received from
a peasant information Of plot to fire
on the coach as it passed through the
forest. The outrider, representing that
there was an obstruction on the road,
persuaded the emperor to leave the
coach and ride around in another direc-
ton, while he brought the carriage as
best he could to meet him. This was
done, and Wernet encountered furious
fusillade, which, however, left him I'M
scathed, as it was directed not at the
box, but at the interior of the empty
vehicle. Wernet lived to be outrider to
