One thing cannot fail to Impress every visitor to Bethlehem, and, in deed, to the Holy Land generally, who is imbued with true Christian faith and a proper Bense of the sanctity of the location and of the events that have transpired there, and that is the more than remarkable correspondence between the things and placeB shov/n us today as having been associated with the life and work of the Saviour and other events that enter into the structure of our religious faith and the descriptions and accounts of them, as furnished us in the pages of the Holy Scriptures. They agree with them in every respect and it is im possible, after carefully considering and comparing them, to doubt their Identity, so exactly are they in accord with the Bible narrative. The work In the fields, the arrange ment of the buildings, the very arti cles of diet and clothing of ancient days are plainly recognizable in the doings and surroundings of today. In deed, where modern methods have not become obtrusive the manners and customs of the people remain much the same as in the days of the pres ence on earth of the Saviour. Be tween the descriptions given in the Bible of localities, climatic and geo graphical conditions, distanc J, etc., of these times and those of today there ls hardly any discrepancy. Even a skeptic, considering this remarkable accord of circumstances with the Biblical narrative, cannot but be con vinced of its veracity; to the believer it comes as a wonderful conviction, a satisfactory corroboration or en couragement to see things as those who described them so graphically saw them so long ago.-Columbian Magazine.
