In reply to query diagram OF
three-horse evener is given, the idea
being for two horses to walk In the
road and one on the outside.
In the first place, If two horses are
to work on one side Of the tongue
there will be some side draft to be
equalized, hence there must be some
way of doing this SO that each horse
will be drawing his proportionate
snare of the load. The accompanying
cut illustrates the appearance OF the
evener, a portion of the tongue and
axle of the wagon viewed from be-
meath. H is the axle. B Is block
of wood fastened under the hole

THE. WORD PARADISE.
10 Earliest Meaning Was an Enclosed
Pleasure Ground.

Pressure GROUND.
The earliGAt meaning Of the word
paradise appears to have been wall
ed In pleasure ground. In the Hebrew
It was "perdes." In the Persian fer.
dus.' and from one or other of these
the Greeks appear to have derived the
word "paradeisos." from which We get
our own word. We also know that the
ancient inonarchs of Chnldea and Az.
syria and also Of Egypt constructed
vast Enclosures Of forest lnnd for the
preservation Of wild animals kept for
hunting PURPOSES. and these were also
called paradiSes Thus the historical
meaning of the word comes TO this: A
space protected from all ins'ursiOn
from the outer world. In which those
who were privileged to enter were
able to indulge in such pleasures AZ
pleased the fancy.
1t IL easy to see the translation from
the material to the spiritual mean. ng.
paradise In the latter sense meaning
the place Of the elect or chosen This
Is strikingly borne out by the fact that
the fav6rite battlrcry Of the Mosieins.
whose firm belief II IL that those who
die fighting 20 straight to heaven. was
always Flight, Fight Paradise! Par
adise" And the strong probability IL
that they got the word from the Per
sian campaigns Of the eighth century,
The use of the word In it's present
form in the New Testament Is OF
Greek origin and its description as
applied to the garden Of Eden is prob
ably of Hebrew origin. dating from
the period of the captivity.
