Mr. Wilbur Vaughan has discov-
cred a new and effective method of

1t Is a singular fact that Sarah Is the
only woman whose age Is mentioned lin

except that she was the wife Of Abra-
ham, comcly to look upon, somewhat

that she was also the mother Of Isanc.

into one sentence, but 1t really expands
into a great deal when we follow ont all
( the facts. 5s g

gerous for Abraham. Her conduct to-
wards Hagnr. showed her temper AMI
moral qualities, and her motherhood OF
Isaac made her the mother Of all be-
