About Baqpipes.

The Bulgarian delegates would have
been interested if they had heard be-
fore leaving that the Prince of Wales
was learning the bagpipes. For the
pipes are the Bulgarian national in
strument as Sir Charles Eliot shows
by a striking illustration. Until late
ly, at any rate, the servants who
waited at the porte on the grand
vizier were mutes, though not, as in
former times, persons specially mutt
lated, but children born deaf and
dumb They used language of signs,
with a special gesture to describe the
representative of each nation. To in
dicate the Bulgarian agent they imi
tated a man playing on the bagpipes.
1t was not the Bulgarianes who invent
cd the pipes, however. They are
among the oldest of musical instru-
ments. An ancient gem shows Apollo
with them, and two instruments in the
Book of Daniel were almost certainly

THE COAL SITUATION.

The world war is . coal war, Coal
energy is behind the munition indus
tries, behind transportation by land
and sea, behind the gun, and behind
the man behind the gun.
AS distinguished from earlier con-
tests Of man power. this is a war OF
mechanics, of engines, of explosive
devices. of transportation, Of manu-
features.
Behind the industrial achievements
of England, France, and Germany lie
their coal resources. Being COM
paratively short of coal resources,
Germany coveted the rich deposits of
France and Belgium. Germany's coal
hunger was in great part cause
this war. Her possession of the Bel
giam and French coal fields enables
her TO prolong the war.
Behind munitions making, trans
portation, and all other military ac-
tivities lies the fuel supply. Superb
ority of coal power will end the war
successfully for those nations most
fortunate in its production and its
conservation.
The war has created a demand up
on the United States for one hundred
million extra tons of coal this year.
Although fifty million tons more coal
is being mined in the United States
this year than ever before, yet the

STRONG, BUT OLD IN YEARS
History Replete With Records of Men
Who Have Done Great Things Be-

There are some old men who are
not to be despised. Some are apt to
think that none but young men can
do much. Some, indeed, shoot up like
a rocket, and go out like one. Others
rise slowly, like fixed stars, and as
they are slow to rise they are slow to
set.

he was forty-one, and his greatest

70 THE ADVANC EMENT OF ART
Economic inquiry, Conducted Along
Scientific Lines, Means Much 20
the Human Race.

Notwithstanding the growth in re-
cent years of the work of the geologi-
cal survey along practical economic
lines, scientific work has not been
neglected, according to the annual re-
port of the director for last year. In
fact, in the survey the scientific inves'
LEGATIONS are inseparable from the
economic work, though the one or the
other may predominant in purpose ac-
cording to the needs of the particular
research in hand. In any field econo-
mic work of the highest rank is i'm
possible without full knowledge of the
scientific laws and principles pertain
ing to the subject of the work, but as
there is no application of geology
which does not involve unsolved prob
lens, some of them of the highest i'm
portance, the best knowledge available
is nevertheless relative. 1t thus fol-
lows that the broad and searching
observations which should accompany
every piece of good economic work
comprehend data that are eventually
combined in the construction of new
scientific hypothesis, some of which,
as more observations accumulate,
grow into established laws or princi-
pies that are in turn of the greatest
practical consequence. Thus the de-
tailed studies of the metalliferous de-
posits in one region or another bring
to light evidence from which to deter
mine the genesis of the ores and the
modes or conditions by their occur
renee. and the economic inquiry be-
comes more intelligent and successful
when once this new principle regard
ing the mode of an ore occurrence is
understood

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE FALL
OF JERICHO.


The capture OF Jericho in Palestine
by the British a few days ago would
seem TO add another link 10 the chain
of the fulfilling Of prophecy long age
foretold. Palestine was in possession
of the Jews or Israelites for a long
time and it is very interesting to note
how they lost possession of this rich
country.
According to the scriptures, the
Jews or Israelites were Gods chosen
people. having God for their King, and
their rulers nominally served under
Him-Psa rs: 20, II. In 2 Chron.
IS: and l Chron. 20: %, Israel is
called The Kingdom of the Lord"
Israel being Gods chosen people
and under His direct supervision,
when they sinned against the Lord, He
chastised them repeatedly, until final
ly He took away their kingdom en-
tirely and then they lost possession
of their land. In the days of Zedekiah
the last who reigned in the line of
David, the scepter of royal power was
removed
Gods decision relative to the mat
ter Is thus expressed: Thus saith
the Lord, Remove the diadem and
take of the crown; this shall not be
the same, exalt him that is low and
abase him that is high. | will over
turn, oyerturn, overturn it; and it
shall be no more, until he comes
whose right il is; and ! will give. it
him Ezek 81: &c: 27).
In fulfllment of this prophecy the
King OF Babylon came against Israel,
and their King was removed. Though
afterward restored to national exist
ence ~ Cyrus the Mede, they were
subjects and tribute payers TO the
successive emperors of Medic, Persia,
Greece and Rome, down to the final
destruction of their nationality, A. ID.
20, since which time they have been
scattered among all the nations.
Our Lord said to them, Jerusalem
shall be trodden down of the Gentiles,
until the times of the Gentiles be full
filled Luke 81: "a.
Then comes the promise of the
restoration of Israel:
I'm that day will l raise up the
tabernacle of David that is fallen, and
close up the breaches thereof; and !
will raise up his ruins and l will
build il as in the days of old. And l
will bring again the captivity of My
people of Israel, and they shall build
the waste cities and habit them; and
they shall plant vineyards and drink
the wine thereof; they shall also make
gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
And will plant them upon their land,
and they shall no more be pulled
up out of their land which l have
given them, saith the Lord, thy God"
Amos. Q: IL, IA, Is.
The fact that the Jews from all
over the world have been going to
Palestine within the last twenty-five
years, some with the intention of max
ing il their home, the Great Zionist
movement recently started in their
interest. and the capture of Jerusalem
and OF Jericho from the "Despicable''
Turk at this time. add much interest
To the current trend of events along
this line, which would seem to be in
ful6llment of the aforegoing prophecy,
Therefore, the significance of the fall
of Jericho would seem to be that it
will not be very many years before
the Jews will come into their own
and be fully re-established in the
Land of Promise where "They shah
no more be pulled up"
