TOWER OF BABEL.
Traditions as to the Height of the Fa-
nous Structure.

Traditions as to the Height of the Fa-
nous Structure.
The actual height at which the last
stone of that famous structure, the
tower of Babel. rested cannot, on ac-
count of the remoteness of the times
at which it is said to have existed,
ever become more than matter of
merest conjecture. Herodotus, who
lived about LOO years after that
great spiral way TO heaven" is said
to have been attempted, says that he
saw at Babylon a structure consisting
of eight towers raised one above an
other, each seventy-tive feet in height,
but whether this ruin was the re-
mains of the tower of Babel it was
even then impossible TO ascertain. He
rodotus, usually minutely exact in his
writing, leaves US in ignorance as to
how the upper level of each of these
seventy-fve foot towers was reached
from the level below.
AS might be expected, even in ira
dition, wide difference OF opinion ex
lists as to the height of the tower. Most
Srientalists maintain that God did not
put stop to the work until the tower
had reached a height of 10000 faith
oms, or about twelve miles. In Cey-
lonese tradition it is said to have been
as high as 10000 elephants, each
standing one above the other. st.
Jerome asserts on the authority of
persons who had examined the ruins
that it did not reach a height exceed
ing four miles. Other statements are
still more ravagant.-London Sat
urday Review.

Happy Events.


A teacher in one of the public schools
of Vienna in order to test the ability
of her junior class-girls eight to nine
years old-in composition writing gave
each little miss a subject to be dis
cussed lat once without consultation
and without help of any kind" The
articles were found to be so interest
ing and amusing that they have been
collected for publication. One article
on My Three Happiest Days" is nota-
BILE in the unique collection. In well
chosen words and clearly rounded SEN
tences the little girl says that, being
lost in the woods. having to run away
from a fire which broke out in their
house and watching q little boat as
the wind tossed it on the waves and
finally smashed it, were the most hap
py events" that she could think Of
Another in describing "fairyland" said
that it must be place where 'every-
thing is as it is here except that the
lakes should be frozen half across at
all times of the year so that we could
take swim and jump out and skate"

A Gloomy African Pool.

There is a large, deep and mysteri-
Gus pool in the valley of the upper
Kafue river, northwestern Rhodesia.
This wonderful pool lies in fiat coun-
try, and one comes to it quite sudden
ly, its banks being concealed by dense
forest. There is a small native village
near the pool, and the inhabitants
refuse to drink the water or use it for
any purpose whatever. TO sit beside
this still, pellucid pool of unknown
depth, surrounded by precipitous walls
in the heart of the tropical forest,
would induce feeling of awe in the
breast of even the most civilized man.
