The practical thought for us from
all this is, that we have with us men
and women who are like in mind to
the disgruntled Jews in the wilder
ness, and the Pharisees in the days
of Jesus. Such people as these as
sumo great wisdom and pretend they
have open minds to decide whether
there is truth and power in the re-
ligion of Jesus. Such as they Cannot
see the forests because there are so
many trees obstructing their view."
They themselves are the product of
christianity. Their education, their
worldly comforts, their daily life Is
such as it is, because Jesus came and
taught His gospel and yet they refuse
to believe on Him.
One is tempted to say that men call.
ing themselves intelligent who cannot
see power, vitality, the supernatural,
divinity, in the gospel of Jesus ought
to be taken to cannibal islands and
made to live there time in fear of
their lives; or dropped down in some
African jungle removed from all evil
dences of the civilization which the
gospel of Jesus has brought; or made
to live with the followers of the Koran
where hatred, love of blood and re-
venge and degradation hold sway; be
condemned to live in India, where
caste, infant marriages, gross super
stitution hold abound. Let it be re-
membered that where there is no re-
ligiOn of Jesus there are no railways,
no telephones, no care for the unfor-
tunate, no medical and surgical helps,
women held as slaves, given no more
consideration than brutes, girl chill
dren murdered or sold to lives of sin;
men and women with loathsome dis
eases go wandering about in the vii
lagos uncared for until they rot and
die; people live in terror at all times
from evil spirits who must be bribed
to withhold inflicting terrible tor
ments, all the means which science
has found for giving comfort and
health are lacking. So one might go
on naming for hours the things not
found where the bible is unknown.
1t is simply amazingly strange how
men and women in our day should
want more evidences of the truth and
divinity of the gospel of Jesus the
Christ. Such stare them in the face
during every waking hour. People like
this simply do not want to believe. 1t
is to be hoped that readers of this
column are not of this kind, and that
if some are, they will soon see how
foolish they are to pretend they are
open minded, and yet refuse to under
stand that which is as plain as the
sunlight.
In the lesson of this date Jesus tells
His disciples to beware of the hypoc.
risy of the Pharisees, who, having
eyes, see not and ears, hear not. He
rebukes them for not understanding
the power he displayed in the feeding
of the multitudes from a few loaves.
That day He gave sight to blind
man who besought aid. The great les
son to us is to appreciate what God
has done for us physically, mentally,
morally, spiritually and never to be in
the class of people asking for more
evidences of the truth of the bible,
and the divinity of Jesus Christ and
His gospel.

Would you believe it that the great

the Across India Special" from Agra
and our arrival was coincident with
that of two proud rajahs whose spe-
Gals had transported their pictures
que suits to the city of the. Dunbar.
We drew never wondering glance
from them, but they made a great hit
with us as they stalked In stately dig
nifty down the long platform in a pro-
ccfsion OF brilliant colors and fantas-
tic whiskers. But IL was not the
princely regalia of a rajah that We
had come all the thousand miles from
Bombay to see
Our carriages whirled us away to
the limits of the modern city and
then picked their way through a
street that was oriental in the high

at the top, massive and beautiful be

Musjid, one Of the three famous Mo-
gul mosques of India. The roughness
OF the red sandstone without gave no
hint OF the dazzling beauty within,
where the pavement OF its great court
and the walls that inclose IL and the
minarets that rise high against the
azure sky are all of white marble. II
seemed too beautiful to justify the

the whole beautiful city--a city that
is more than three miles In circum-
ference. At the foot of the gentle
slope on which the mosque is built
stand the embattled walls OF Shah
Jehan's great fort OF red sandstone.
Within lived the Mogul emperors in
a magnifcence beyond the most fan;

sight to look down upon the massive

the gate, recalling the Tennyson line,

Within few minutes we were

inspect the frowning walls, but TO
gaze In speechless wonderment at the
splendor OF a marble palace that the
greatest of the Mogul builders placed
here after he had adorned Agra with
the Mott mosque and the Tai Mahal
Shah Jehan's palace here in the Del
hi fort Is thought TO have been the
most wonderful palace in all that
magnificent east. 1t has not been re-
stored in its wondrous setting OF
courts and fountains and gardens, but
even military necessity has.l left to us
the chief of architectural gems.
In the center OF the great court
still stands the famous Hall OF Audi.

upor which was the wonderful Sca-
cock throne, which was carried away
by the Persians in 1899. 1t was the
eighth wonder the world. that

emeralds and diamonds and with
lifesiZed parrot carved from a single
emerald, yet IL was only a suggestion
OF the righteousness of a dynasty be-
side which all the splendor OF the
greatest durbar seems Ike tinsel.
Overlooking and almost oyerhang-
ing the Jumna river still stands in
matchless beauty the marble Diwan-i-
Khas, or Private Hall of Audience,
more splendid than the Alhambra, for
here the mosaics of flowers and birds
of brilliant plumage were not stucco

solid gold. The gems are OF course

government has made such restora
