POOL KNOWN AS MOSES WELL
Is Believed to Be That Mentioned in
the Bible in Connection With
Great Law GiVer.

In the Egyptian desert, about ten
miles east of Suez, is situated a pic
turesque pool known rs Moses well"
This is believed to be the we'll men
toned in the Bible, where Moses, at
the bidding of the Lord, cast branch
into the bitter waters, and they were
sweetened. Set in a deep grove of
date-palms and pomegranate trees, the
we'll is a dark, calm, mysterious look
ing pool, faithfully rejecting the
palms which fringe it's edges. The
scene at sunrise, when the first rays
strike the still water, is exquisite be-
yOnd description.
Attempts to identify various nat
ural beauties and locations with men,
tons or descriptions as given in the
Bible have always been difficult, owing
to the fact that the records of the
rulers of Egypt at the time Of the cap
tivity of the Jews were destroyed by
rulers that came into power immedi-
ately afterward. The motive was
jealousy, and a determination to wipe
from the minds of the people any re-
gretS for rulers gone.

to a certain section of the country,
where he was careful to do as the peo-
pie did, and to conform with social
usages as he found them.
At the table the venerable host
poured coffee into a saucer. But the

made the host angry. ''Why don't you
