VERAClTY OF THE BIBLE
After a Visit to the Holy Land Even
Skeptic Must Be Con-
WINGED.

One thing cannot fail TO impress
every visitor TO Bethlehem, and, in
deed, to the Holy Land generally, who
is imbued with true Christian faith
and a proper sense of the sanctity
Of the location and of the events that
have t%ranspircd there, and that Is the
more than remarkable correspondence
between the things and places shown
us today as having been associated
with the life and work of the Saviour
and other events that enter into the
structure of our religious faith and
the descriptions and accounts of them,
as furnished us in the pages OF the
Holy Scriptures. They agree with
them in every respect and 1t Is i'm
possible, after carefully considering
and comparing them, to doubt their
identity, so exactly are they In accord
with the Bible narrative.
The work in the fields, the arrange
ment Of tho buildings, the very arti-
cles Of diet and clothing of ancient
days are plainly recognizable in the
doings and surroundings OF today. In
deed, where modern methods have not
become obtrusive the amer and
customs of the people remain much
the same as in the days Of the pres
ence on earth of the Saviour. Be
tween the descriptions given In the
Bible Of localities, climatic and geo
graphical conditions, distances. etc.
of these times and those Of today
there Is hardly any discrepancy. Even
a skeptic, considering this remarkable
accord of circumstances with the
Biblical narrative, cannot but be con-
WINGED of its veracity; to the believer
it I'M as a wonderful conviction,
a satisfactory confederation or en-
enlargement to see things as those
who described them so graphically
saw them so long ago,-Columbian
Magazine.

On Sunday morning. Oct. 9Th, at
10 a. m. the soul of our only daugh-
ter and child, Mamie, took flight
from this tenement Of earthly be-
ing. to the great beyond from
whence none return.
Although an invalid for some
time. she was such a source of JOY
and pleasure to us. On! how we
miss her, but it was God S will that
she should 60 and hence we are re-
signed. for The Lord giveth and
taketh; blessed be the name Of the
Lord. When the moisture of
death began to manifest itself, and
feeling that the end was nigh. she
sweetly whispered to her loved
parents and friends, Do not weep
for me for / already hear the ceIes-

hands bidding me welcome to
dwell with Christ forevermore.
