prophet? That word Is often used as meaning any man with new or help full message to his time; but you surely do not put the prophets you have named in the same class with the ordinary writer, teacher or preach CT today?"
 Here again the Prophet" of the Be- haists showed his rare skill at eva sion. He took up the figure of the mirror, and dwelt at great length upon that, and would not be diverted; the prophet is the man who best mirrors God. I could not get to him the sug- gestion that, after all the mirror does not reflect or impart life, heat or pow CT. Nor could I get past the inter- preter the query whether this teach ing is not great comedown for those of Buddha, with his doctrine of man being part of the divine essence; and of Jesus, who professed to give life; and who boldly declared: 'I and the Father are one;" and of Mohamet, with his stern claim to be the very voice and representative of God. h. terpreters are great convenience, when there are uncomfortable ques- tions flying around.
 What Rehaism Stands For.
 A definition of Behaism, which to an unsentimental westerner seems rather vague, is the hard thing to secure; so I asked Abbas Effendt, frankly, to give me categorical definition of the dis tinctive doctrine of Beharism, some thing with hooks to 1t, so that it will grasp the ordinary man." This he pa. tiently and kindly did.
 First Behaism believes that all men are brothers, and should so act.
 Second. Behaism believes that there should be no strife of religious creeds. All are equal. No man need change his religion when he becomes a Behaist, whether he is a Moslem, a Christian or Buddhist.
 Third. There should be no war between races or countries. There should be international brotherhood and international peace" Incident ally the retainer who had done the interpreting, later told me that Ab- bas believes that there will be a great war, and then worldwide peace. He also advocates one language and one form of writing.
 Fourth. Behaism teaches it's follow

asked Abbas Effendi concerning the number of his disciples in America, for this has been put as high as a million He himself avoids the use of the word disciples" but does not object to it's employment by others. l could not get him to give even approxi- innate figures; he contented himself with saying that he had many friends in America and that there are regular spiritual gatherings of these in Wash ington, Boston and Chicago. It is evil dently with these centers that he con ducts his correspondence, for the names frequently recurred.
 As to the number of Behaists in the world he was equally vague, but wholly Persia had told me that fully half the people in Persia are Behaists, he promptly declared that he thought this number entirely too high. Equally candid was he in saying that there are practically no Behaists in Turkey; the following is found chiefly in Persia, and then in India, America, Great Brit ain, and a scattering in other coun- tries. Quality" he remarked, lis more important than quantity; better five diamonds than hundred peb- bles" Abbas Effendi has considerable aptness in the art of illustration; this was further shown when we got on the main track of the meaning of Behaism. An AlI-inciusive Religion. All religions" said Abbas Effendi, ''are substantially the same; there Is no real difference. The difference is Turk, a Greek, Persian and an Arab, to whom a piece of money was given in common Each said in his own tongue what he wanted bought with it, and they had long and angry discus sion. Then along came a man bearing grapes-and 10, that was what they all wanted, but each had used a diff ferent name for it. So Moses, Buddha, Confucius, Christ, Mahomet, were all prophets of God They merely had different names. Each should accept the other"
 When this important point was pressed, he affirmed that all Chris. tians should accept Mohamet, as the Jews should have accepted Christ.
 Do you really mean that all relig- ions are essentially the same, and that one is as good as another? Do you include organism, and idolatry?"
 "Yes, they were all right at first, even Buddhism, which has deterior- ated, as all religions do." At this point my hosts knowledge of the ancient and so-called ethical faiths," proved so shaky that I abandoned this line of questioning.
 He got on to frmer ground by say. ing: There have been a thousand unknown prophets n the world. They were truly prophets of God but the world never recognized them."

CTS to love everybody In Persia there are Jews, Moslems, Zoroastrians. Budd- hists, Brahmins and Christians, who meet in love and concord as Behaists. It removes fanaticism from all sects."
 And l verify believe that Abbas Eff dendi practices his creed, for he is a gentle, kindly man; who, however, has no conception whatever of the high in- eXorableness of truth. Gen. Lew Wal lace's aphorism: Better law with out love, than love without law" would not appeal to him. None the less, his high, fine ideals, embodying as they do. the commonplaces of Christianity, are in consonance with the spirit of the age, and we may expect to see Be- haism grow and prosper, especially among sentimental persons. Its claim to be the final and universal religion is scarcely tenable, since it has not bones enough to stand the scalpels of the scholars.
