Olden Days.
For a long time Alexandria was the
only medical center Of the world, and
the physician Galen, born about 40
A. D., had to journey from Rome 70
the African city even to see skeleton.
He sent his students to the German
battlehelds to dissect the bodies of the
national enemies, while he himself used
apes as most resembling human beings.
Human dissection was revived In Bo-
logna in the fourteenth century, where
Madonna Manzollna later was profess

first women doctors, If not the very
first. Leonardo da Vinci. painter OF
"The Last Supper" was a great anat-
omist, but dissection had fallen into
disuse when Vesalius finally revived

century.

The four grades Of society among the
Hindoos are the Brahmans, or sacer-
dotal class, who are said at the mo-
ment Of creation to have issued from
the mouth of Brahma; the Kshatrya,
or Chuttsee, or military class, sprung
from the arm of Brahma; the Vaisya,
or Bats, or mercantile class. from the
thigh Of Brahma, and Sudras, or 500
ders, or servile class. from the foot OF
Brahma. The business Of the Sudras
Is to serve the three superior classes,
more especially the Brahmans. Their
condition is never to be improved, they
are not to accumulate property and
are unable by any means to approach
the dignity of the higher classes. These
divisions are hereditary, impossible

Marks birthplace OF Foreign Mission
Work In This Country.

MANY a visitor to Williams college is
taken to the birthplace of American
foreign missions, marked by a unique
monument in little park near the col
lege grounds.
For once in the history Of the world a
prayer meeting is commemorated by
monument In Mission park In VIII
Jamestown stands shaft which was
dedicated on Sunday, July %, 1857, to
the memory Of Ave students Of Will
liams college who met at the close OF
one sultry summer day in the year
1903 to hold a prayer lSeeting, as was
their custom. They were overtaken by
a sudden shower Of rain and were COM
PEELED to seek the friendly shelter af-
forded them by a neighborlng hay
stack.
The group Of young evangelists who
were present at the prayer meeting on
that particular occasion consisted OF
Samuel ]. Mills, James Richards. Fran
els L. Robbins. Harvey Loomis and
Byram Green.
Sheltered from the rain by the hay
stack. they continued amid the conflict
OF the elements their devotional exer-
cIses and discussed religious topics OF
deep interest to themselves. While the
storm ragged Mills communicated to his
fellows the plan of executing a great
life work. It was nothing less than
mission to some heather Ian and the
ultimate evangelizatlon of the world.
They communicated their plan to
such Of their fellow students as they
believed would sympathize with them
and organized the Society of Brethren,
a secret society, which had for It's OBJ
iect the establishment oStoreign mis-
sions.
The result Of the prayer meeting was
the organization in Bradford, Mass, In
1910 Of the American board Of COM
missIoners for foreign missions From
this start grew the great society Of the
American board, which has distributed
millions Of dollars. Since the Arst
meeting Of FIVE persons its corporate
and honorary members have increased
to over 10000.
Years after the students had formed
their great scheme Of evangelization
the spot where they held the prayer
meeting was marked by cedar stake.
This led to the purchase Of Mission
park By the alumni Of Williams col
| lege and In 1867 to the erection and
dedication of what is now known as
Haystack monument. The cedar stake
monument became marble through
Harvey Rice of Cleveland, who de-
signed and at his own expense reared
the prayer meeting site marker.
The monument stands on the iden-
teal spot where the haystack stood. It
is a strictly Berkshire county produc-
ton, composed Of Berkshire marble,
quarried at Afford and wrought In the
workshops of the Berkshire Marble
company. Its height is twelve feet, Its
shaft, cap and base square polished, Its
color a silver blue.-New York Tribune.
