OF. Any New" American western
town can show similar structures.
Thcy are "clinker' built two-story af-
fairs unpretentious as to outward ap-
pearance.
But 1t is their history that counts.
These buildings always have possess
ed more or less interest to American
visitors. as they were erected during
the first year Of the American war
OF independence. AS specimens OF
early London building work they pos
sess an interest in themselves. After
the great London fire OF 1866, large
number Of wooden buildings were
erected in various parts of London and
though these particular ones did not
come into existence until hundred
years afterwards they were regarded
in their day as among the most impos-
ing edifices of their kind.
Historically. the buildings possess
interest as having been the temporary
abiding place OF the famous engineer.
Isambard Kingdom Brunei. who built
the first tunnel under the Thames,
and also planned We famous Clifton
suspension bridge which won him
fame in the engineering world. Brunel
also was the designer of the Great
E..stern, the largest ship ever built,
and of the first propeller ship to cross
the Atlantic. 1t is said that he lived
in these houses during the years Of the
greatest engineering activity.
The district in which these houses
stand Is not now considered select"
one. but, in the early days, several
prominent London city merchants re-
sided there; and In this neighborhood
also lived numerous famous actors and
actresses, Ga-rick, Mrs. Siddons and
Sheridan at one time lived on the
south side of the river and even In
the earlier days Shakespeare's thea
ter-the GIobe-of whicE the poet held
the majority Of shares-stood In the
neighborhood Of Blackfriars bridge.

And when he (Achier) came
and saw the head Of Holofernes,
and perceived all that the God
OF Israel had done, he believed
In God greatly and was joined

Did you never observe that he
who really works the works Of
God is lost In the shadows Of
the AImighty's presence.
While we may be conscious Of
the human instrument which
has become the willing channel
through which God has poured
his power and has wrought
nightly among men, still there
is the larger, more blessed
thought that II Is God who has
wrought.
The head on the wall is not
the symbol of the woman's pow

God as manifested In the weak

Achier, the captain of all the
forces OF the Ammonities, had
been summoned before Holofer-
mes, the captain Of the Assyrian
forces which had come and laid
siege to 6cthulia, and In answer
to questions Of the great gener-
al he had given history of the
Jewish people and how God had
worked nightly In their behalf.

Difficulties il, Book OF Judith There
are two conflicting statements as to the
original language OF the book Origen
speaks of IL. together with Tobit as mot
existing in Hebrew even among the
Apocrypha." In the Hebrew collection,
while Jerome, on the other hand, says
that Among the Hebrews the Book OF
Judith being written in the ChaI-
dean language is reckoned among the
histories" There can be little doubt
that the book was written in Palestine In
the national dialect (Syro-C Chaldaic). The
text exists at present In two distinct re-
tensions, the Greek followed by the
Syriac). and the Latin. The former evil
IDENTIFY is the truer representative OF tho
original, and II seems certain that the
,E,atin was derived, in the main, from the
Greek BY a series 6f successive altera-
tons. The Latin text contains many
curious errors. At present 1t is impos-
slble to determine the authentic text.
The existence OF these various recensions
OF the book is proof OF its popularity
and wide circulation; but the external ev-
idence OF its use is very scanty. The
first reference to its contents occurs in
Glenn. Rom, and II is quoted with marked
respect by Origen, Hilary and Lucifer.
Jerome speaks OF It as "reckoned among
tte sacred Scriptures BY the Synod Of
Nice" 1t has been wrongly inserted In

sharp and clear on the early morning

eager effort to obey.
The little group stood within the

admitted Judith and her maid who
five days before had gone forth tai
king their lives In their hands that
they might serve the city they loved.
And that their efforts had not been
in vain was evident from the ghast-
ly trophy which one of the group held
In his hand.
Hang 1t upon the wall" Judith
had said as she had passed on and
after the first thrill OF excitement
had subsided and the ruler and princes
Of the city had regained some.
whnt Of their composure, Ozias had
bethought himself of Achier. the
Ammonite chief whom H0lofernes had
consigned to the city to as,ait death
when the city should be taken BY his
soldiers, and had commanded that he
be brought.
"At last the hour has conle.7 NUT
