Text: “He entered into a ship, and sat
in thr sea; -dud the whole multitude was
by the sea on the Mark iv M 1.
Jt is Monday morning in our Palestine ex
periences, and the sky is a blue Galilee above,
as in the boat we sail the blue Galilee be
neath. It is thirteen miles long and six miles
wide, but the atmosphere is so clear it seems
as if I could cast a stone from beach to beach.
The lake looks as though it had been let
down on silver pulleys from the heavens and
were a section of the sea of glass that St.
John describes as a part of the celestial land
scape. Lake Galilee is a depression of six
hundred feet in which the river Jordan
widens and tarries a little, for the river Jor
dan comes in at its north side and departs
from its south side, so this lake has its cradle
and its grave.
its white satin cradle is among the snows
of Mount Hermon where the Jordan starts,
and its sepulchre is the Dead Sea into which
the Jordan empties. Lake Como of Itaty.
Lake Geneva or Switzerland, Lake Lomond
of Scotland, Lake Winnipesaukeeof America
are larger, but Lake Galilee is the greatest
diamond that ever dropped from the finger
of the clouds, and whether encamped on its
banks as we were yesterday and worship
ing at its crystal altars or wading into its
waves, which make an ordinary bath solemn
as a baptism, or now putting out upon its
sparkling surface in a boat, it is something
to talk about and pray about and sing about
until the lips with which we now describe
it can neither talk nor pray nor sing.
As sometimes a beautiful child in a neigh
borhood has a half dozen pet names, and some
of the neighbors call her by one name and
others by another, so this pet lake of the
planet has a profusion of names. Ask the
Arab as he jjjoes by what this sheet of water
is, and he will call it Tabariyeh. Ask Moses
x>l the Old Testament, and lie calls it Sea of
Chinnereth. Ask Matthew', and he calls it
Sea of Galilee. Ask Luke, and he calls it Sea
of Gennesaret. Ask John, and he calls it Sea
of Tiberias. Ask Josephus and Eusebius,
and they have other names ready. But to me
it appears a child of the sky, a star of the
hills, a rhapsody of the mountains, the bap
tismal bowl of the world’s temple, the smi.e
of the great God. Many kinds of fish are
found in these waters, every kind of tree upon
its bank, from those that grow in the torrid
zone to those in the frigid, from the plain to
the cedar.
Of the two hundred and thirty Avar ships
Josephus manoevred on these waters—for
Josephus was a warrior as well as a historian
—there remains not one piece of a hulk, or
one patch of a canvas, or one splinter of an
oar. But to return to America we never
will until we have had a sail upon this inland
sea. Not from a wharf, but from a beach
covered with black and white pebbles, avg go
on board a boat of about ten or twelve tons,
to be propelled partly by sail and partly by
oar. The mast leans so far forw’ard that it
seems about to fall, but avo find it was pur
posely so built, and the rope through a pulley
manages to hoist and let down the sail. It is
a rough boat, and as far as possible removed
from a Venetian gondola or a sportsman’s
yacht. With a common suav and hammer
and ax many of you could make a better one.
Pour barefooted Arabs, instead of sitting
down to their oars, stand, as they always do
in roAving. and pull away from shore. 1 in
sist on helping, for there is nothing more ex
hilarating to me than rowing, but £ soon
have enough of the clumsy oars and the awk
ward attempt at wielding them Avhile in
standing posture.
We put our overcoats and shawls on a
small deck in the stern of the boat, the very
kind of a deck where Christ lay on a fisher
man’s coat when of old a tempest pounced
upon the fishing smack of the affrighted dis
ciples. Ospreys and wild ducks and king
fishers fly overhead or dip their Avings into
the lake, mistaking it for fragment of
fallen sky. Can it bo that those Bible stories
about sudden storms on this lake are true?
Is it possible that a sea of such seeming
placidity of temper could ever rise and rage
at the heavens? It does not seem as if this
happy family of elements could have over
had a falling out, and the water strike at the
clouds and the clouds strike at the water.
Pull away, oarsmen! On our right bank
are the hot sulphur baths, so hot they are
scalding, and the w aters must cool off a long
while before hand or foot can endure their
temperature. \ oloanoes have been boiling
these waters for centuries. Four springs
roll their resources into two great swimming
reservoirs. King Herod her© tried to bathe
off the results of his excesses, and Pliny and
Josephus describe the spurtings out of these
volcanic heats, and Joshua and Moses knew
about them, and this moment long lines of
pu^nmk fboni-rtlh parts of the earth are
waiting for their turn to step into the
steaming restoratives.
Let the boat, as far as possible and not run
aground, hug the western shore of the lake
that we may see the city of Tiberias,, once a
great capita), of the architecture of which a
few mosaics and fallen pillars and pedestals,
and here and there a broken and shattered
frieze remain, mightily suggestive of the
time when Herod Antipas had a palace here
and reigned with an opulence and pomp and
cruelty and abomination that paralyzes the
finders of the historian Avhen ho comes to
write it and the fingers of the painter when
he attempts to transfer it to canvas. I sup
pose he was one of tho worst men that ever
lived. And what a contrast of character
comes at every moment to the thoughtful
traveler iu Palestine, whether he walks the
leaeb of this lake or saiis as we now do these
Side by side are the two great characters
of this Jake region, Jesus and Herod An-
tipas. And did any age produce any such
antipodes, any such antitheses, any such
opposites? Kindness and cruelty, holiness
and filth, generosity an 1 meanness, self-
sacrifice and selfishness, the supernal and the
infernal, midnoon and midnight. The father
of this Herod Anti pas w’as a genius at assas
sination. He could manufacture more rea
sons for putting people out of this life than
any man in all history. He sends for
Hvrcauus to come from Babylon to Jeru
salem to be made high priest, and slays him.
He has his brother-in-law while in bathing
with him drowned by tho king’s attendants.
He slays his wife and his wife^s mother and
two of his sons and his uncle, and filled a
volume of atrocities, the last chapter of
which was the massacre of all the babies at
Bethlfehem.
W ith such a father as Herod the Great you
are not surprised that this Herod Antipas,
whose palace stood on the banks of this lake
we now sail, w as a combination of Avolf, rep
tile and hyena, while the Christ who walked
yonder banks and sailed these waters Avas so
^ood that almost every rood of this scenery
is associated with some Avise word or some
kindly deed, and all literature and all art
and all earth and all heaven are put to the
utmost effort in trying to express how grand
and glorious and lovely He was and is and is
to be. The Christ!y and Herodic characters
as different as the two lakes we visit, and not
far apart Galilee and the Dead Sea; the one
flower banked and the other bituminous and
blasted, the one hovered over by the mercy of
Christ, the other blasted by the wrath of
God; the one full of finny tribes sporting in
the clear depths, the other forever lifeless-
the waters of the one sweet and pleasant to
the taste, the other bitter and sharp and
disgusting. Awful Dead Heal Glorious
Gennesaret.
We will not attempt to cross the eastern
side of this lake, as I had thought to do, for
those regions are inhabited by a thieving and
murderoiiK race, and one must go thorough
ly armed, and as I never shot any one and
have no ambition to be shot, X said: “Let us
stay by the western shore.” But we look
over to the hills of Gadara.on the other side,
down which t wo thousand swine after being
possessed by the devil ran into the lake, and
bringing down on Christ for permitting it
the wrath of all the stock raisers of that
country because of this ruining of the pork
business. You see that Satan is a spirit oi
bad taste. Why did be not say: “Let me go
into those birds, whole flocks of which (It*
over Galilee*'” No; that would have been
too high. “Why not let me go into the sheen
which wander over these hills"’ No; that
would have been too gentle. “Rather let
me go into these swine. 1 want to be with
the denizens of the mire. 1 want to associate
with the inhabitanti of tie tilth. Great is
modi X prefer bristles to wings. I would
rather root than fly. I like snout better than
wing.”
Infidelity scofl’s at the idea that those swine
should have run into the lake. Hut it was
quite natural that uuder the heat and burn,
ing of that demoniac possession they would
rtart for the water to get cooled off. ' Would
that all the swine thus possessed had plunged
to the same drowning, for this day tho
descend.IIts of some of those porcine
craaturee retain the demons, and as the
devils were cast out of man into them they
now afflict the human race with the devils
of scrofula, that comes from eating the uu

bUl of fare which God in the Imok of
Leviticus gave to the human race, and our

ous German Dr. Koch may go on with
good work of killing parasite*! in the

Its diet, and goes hack to the divine regula
tion at the beginning, the human race will
continue to be possessed of the devils of
microbe and parasite. Hut 1 did not mean
to cross over to the eastern side of Lake
GaWat even iu discussion.
Pull away, ye Arab oarsmen! And we
come along the shore near by which stan l
great precipices of brown and red and gray
limestone crowned by basalt, iu the sides of
which are vast caverns,sometimes the hiding
E lace of bandits, and sometimes the home ot
onest shepherds, and sometimes the dwell
ing place of pigeons and vultures and eagles
During one of Herod’s wars his enemies hid
in these mountain caverns and the sides were
too steep for Herod’s army to descend, and
the attempt to climb in the face of armed
men would have oaUed down extermination.
So Herod had great cages of wood, iron-
bound, made and filled them with soldiers and
let them down from the top of the precipices
until they gave signal that they were level
Avith the caverns, and then from these cages
they stepped out to the mouth of tho caverns,
and having set enough grass and wood on
fire to fill the caverns with smoke and stran
gulation, the hidden people Avould come
forth to die; and if not coming forth volun
j tardy Herod's men would pull them out with
long iron hooks, and Josephus says that one
lather, rather than submit to the attacking
army flung his Avife and seven children down
the precipice and then leaped after them to
I his own ueatb.
Now, ye Arab oarsmen, row on with swift
er stroke, for we want before noon to land
at Capernaum, the three years’ home o
Jesus. But before arrival there we are to
have a new experience. ' The lake that had
been a smooth surface begins to break up in
to roughness. The air, Avhicb all the morn
ing made our sail almost useless, suddenly
takes hold of our boat with a grip astonish
ing. and our poor craft begins to roll ami
pitch and tumble, and in five minutes we
pass from a calm to violence. The contour
of thislake among the hills is an invitation to
hurricanes. I u«ed to wonder why it Avas
that on so limited a sheet of water a be-
stormed boat in Christ’s time did not nut
i
back to shore when a hurricane was coming.
1 wonder no more.
On that lake an atmospheric fury gives no
warniug, and the change we suav in five
minutes made me feel that the boat in which
Christ sailed may have been skilfully man
aged when the tempest struck it and the wild ;
importunate erv Avent up, “Lord save as or
Aveperish!” I liai all along that morning
been reading from the Ncav Testament tho
story of occurrences on and around that lake.
But our Bible was closed now, and it was as
much as we could do to hold fast and wish
for the laud. If the Avind and the waves had
continued to increase iu violence the follo*.v
ing fifteen minutes in the same ratio as in the
first five, and we had been still at their mercy,
our bones would have been bleaching in the
bottom of Lake Gennesaret instead of our
being here to tell the story.
But the same power that '-escued the fish
ermen of old to-day safely lauded our party.

Here at Capernaum, the Arabs having in
their arms carried us ashore to the only
place where our Lord ever had a pastorate,
and we stepped amid the ruins of the church
Avhere He preached again and again and
again—the synagogue whose rich sculptur
ing lay there, not as when others see it in
springtime covered with weeds and loath
some with reptiles, but in that December
weather completely uncovered to our agi
tated and intense gaze? On one stone of that
synagogue is the sculpturing of a pot of
manna, an artistic commemoration of the
time Avhen the Israelites were fed by manna
in the wilderness, and to w hich sculpturing
no doubt Christ pointed upward while He
was preaching that sermon on this very spot
in which He said: “Not as our fathersnid eat
manna and are dead; he that cateth of this
bread shall live forever.” Wonderful Ca
pernaum ! Scene of more miracles than any
place in all the earth! Blind eyes kindling
with the morning. Withered arms made to
pulsate. Lepers blooming into health. The
dead girl reanimated.
These Arab tents which on this December
clay 1 find in Palestine disappear, and I see
Capernaum as it Avas when Jesus Avas pastor
of the church here. Look at that wealthy
home, the architecture, the marble front,
the upholstery, the slaves in uniform at the
doorway, it is the residence of a courtier of
Herod, probably Chuza by name, his wife
Joanna, a Christian disciple. But something
is the matter. The slaves are iu great ex
citement, and the courtier living there runs
down the front steps and takes a horse and
puts him at full run across the country. The
boy of that nobleman is dying of typhoid
fever. All the doctors have failed to give
relief. But about five miles up the country,
at Cana, there is a divine doctor, Jesus by
name, and the agonized father has gone tor
Him, and with what earnestness those can
understand who have had a dying child in
the house. This courtier cries to Christ,
“Come down ere my child die!”
While the father is absent , and at 1 o’clock
in the afternoon, the people watching the
dying; boy see a change in the countenance,
and Joanna, the mother, on one side of his
couch, says: “Why, this darling is getting
well; the fever has broken. Nee theprespira-
tion on his forehead. Did any of you give
him any new kind of medicine?” “No,” is
the answer. The boy turns on his pillow,
his delirium gone, and asks for something to
eat and says: “Where's father?’ Oh, he has
gone up to Cana to get a young doctor of
about thirty-one years of age. But no doctor
is needed now in this house at Capernaum.
The people look at the sun dial to see what
time it is, and see it is just past noon and 1
o’clock. Then they .stare out and meet the
returning father and as soon as they come
within speaking distance they shout at the
top of their voices: “Your boy is getting
well.” “Is it possible?” says the father,
“When did the change for the better take
place?” “One o'clock” is the answer. “Why,”
says the courtier, “that is just the hour that
Jesus said to me ‘i’hy son liveth.’ One
o’clock.
As they gather at the evening meal Avbat

home at Capernaum! The mother, Joanna,

The mightiest agency in the universe is
prayer, and it turns even the Almighty. It
decides the destinies of individuals, families
and nations. During our sad civil war a
gentleman was a guest at the White House
iu Washington, and he gives this incident.
He says; “I had been snending three weeks
m the White House with Mr. Lincoln as his
guest. One night—it was just after the bat
tle ot Bull Run —l was restless and could not
sleep. 1 was repeating the part which I was
to take hi a public performance. The hour
was past midnight. Indeed, it was coming
neartothedav.ii when I heard Ion* tones
proceeding from a private room where the
President slept. The door was partly open.
I instinctively* walked in, and there I saw a
sight which 1 shall never forget. It Wa. the
President kneeling before an open Bibl *.
“The light was turned low iu I lie room.
His back w as turned toward me. For a mo
ment 1 was silent as 1 stood looking in
amazement and wonder. Then he cried out
in tones so pitiful and sorrowful; ‘Uii.Thoti
Hod that heard Solomon in the night when
he prayed for wisdom, hear me! I cannot
lead this people. I cannot guide the affairs of
this nation without Thv help. I am poor and
weak aud sinful. Oh. God, who didst heag
Solomon when he cridd for wislom, hear me
and save the nation!’” You seewedon t need
to go back to Bible times for evidence that
prayer is heard aud answered.
But some one may say that Christ at Oa
; ernaum healed that courtier's child, yet
would not have done it for one iu humble
ife. Why, in that very Capernaum He did
the same thing for a dying slave belonging

only one city of any size ou its beach, and
both the western aud eastern shores are a
solitude, broken only by the rounds coming
from the mud hovels of the degraded. M hy
did not Christ begin at Babylon the mighty,
at Athens the learned, at Cairo the histone,

triumphant? If Christ was going to save
the world, why not go where the world’s
people dwell? Would a man wishing to

tinent, pass his time amid the fishing huts on
the shores of Newfoundland?' 1
My friend^ Galilee was the hub ot the
wheel of civilization and art, and the canter
of a population that staggers realization. On
the shore' of the lake we sail to-day stood
nine great cities—Scythopolis, Taricb,
Hippos, Gamala, Cboraziu, Capernaum,
Hnthsaida, Magoala, Tiberias—and many
villages, the smallest of which had 15,000 in-
habitants, according to Josephus, and reach-
ing from the beach hack into the country in
alldirections. Palaces, temples, coliseunins,
gymnasiums, amphitheatres, towers, gardens
terraced on the hillsides, fountains bewilder
ing with sunlight, baths upon whose mosaic
floors kings trod; while this lake, from where
the Jordan enters it to where the Jordan
leaves it, was beautiful with all styles of

From one of these naval encounters so many
the dead floated to the beach they could
nut soon enough be entombed, and a playun
was threatened. Twelve hundred soldiers
(•reaping from these vessels of war were one
day massacred in the amphitheatre at Tibe

continuous city encircling Lake Galilee was
the metropolis of our planet. It was to the
very heart of the world that Jesus came to
soothe its sorrows, aud pardou its sins, and
heal its sick, and emancipate its enslaved an!
reanimate its dead.
And let the church and the world take the
suggestion. While the lolitary places are
not to be neglected, wo must strike for the

for Christ. Evangelize all the earth except

The Dogs of Syria.
Mrs. Burton gives some curious facts
about dog life in Syria and other East
ern countries. Dogs exist there by hun
dreds and thousands, without owners
or care, and are a kind of community
by themselvers. Each one belongs to a
particular quarter of the city, and is not
allowed to live elsewhere. She treated
them kindly and fed them, while tho
inhabitants beat and stoned them, and
in gratitude they undertook to escort her
and defend her from harm. When she
went out to walk a dog always met her,
as if appointed by tho whole community,
accompanied her to the border of bis
boundary, and passed her over to one be
longing to that quarter, who did the
same thing in his turn. Each dog
wagged his tail as if bidding good-by
when his work was done. She says also
she has often in the quiet night heard a
dog come barking from the foot of the
mountains. Meeting the dogs on tho
border of the village, there would bo a
quiet for a few minutes, then a general
barking in concert; then one dog would
start for the middle of the village, with
a similar result there; then a single dog
again for the further side of the village,
followed by a general barking there.
“Whatever the canine news is,” she says,
“in about twenty minutes it is passed
round to all the dogs in Damascus.’’

A Railroad Cat
People havo heard of railroad dogs
that were travelers, but few ever heard
of a railroad cat. Dryden, however,
possesses a railroad cat. The cat is
hardly a year old, is owned at the Dry
den roller mills and is of the male per
suasion. He has several times made the
trip up to Caseville and back over the
Pontiac, Oxford and Northern Road, al
ways going with the freight train, but
riding in the coach. The train goes up
oue day and back the next. Sometimes
pussy stops off at Imlay City if the freight
hands have much work to do. He is on
hand the next day, however, when the
train comes along and jumps on and rides
home.—New York Tribune.
Talking of patent medicines
—you know the old prejudice.
And the doctors—some of
them are between you and us.
They would like you to think
that what’s cured thousands
won’t cure you. You’d be
lieve in patent medicines if
they didn’t profess to cure
everything—and so, between
the experiments of doctors,
and the experiments of patent
medicines that are sold only
because there’s money in the
“ stuff, ” you lose faith in every
thing.
And, you can’t always tell
the prescription that cures by
what you read in the papers.
So, perhaps, there’s no better
way to sell a remedy, than to
tell the truth about it, and
take the risk of its doing just
what it professes to do.
That’s what the World’s
Dispensary Medical Associa
tion, of Buffalo, N. Y., does
with
Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery,
Favorite Prescription,
Pleasant Pellets, and
Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy.
If they don’t do what their
makers say they’ll do — you
get your money back.

Queen Victoria'* First Lore.
The name of the late Lord Ellen
borough was, says the New York Bun,
In hu youth associated with that ol
Queen, then Princess, Victoria. It was
-a matter of common rumor that the two
young people were devoted to each
other, and that the youthful Queen in
sisted that she should choose him as hei
consort. But reasons of state prevailed
over love, and young Ellenborough was
given a commission in tho army, and
went to India, where he distinguished
himself. His romantic love affair led to
the writing of a ballad, which used tabs
sung in the drawing rooms of Great
Britain, the first verse of which was as
follows:
I’ll hang my harp on a willow trot,
I’ll on to tha wars again;
A peaceful homo has no charms for me,
The battlefield no pain;
Tho lady I lovo will soon be a bride,
With a diadem on her brow.
O why did she flatter my boyish pride?
Sbes going to leave me now.
in the Speakership Race.
The Hon. Benton McMillin, of ' I'enncR
see, who will have the solid backing oi
the Cougressiaoal delegation from that
State for the Speakership of the House of
Representatives, has had a romantic career.
He was born and educated in Kentucky,
l worked his passage into Tennessee on a
log raft, settled in a backwoods town,
twenty miles away from a railroad, prac
ticed law there, prospered, and now rep
resents a horny-handed, hard-fisted aud
primitive community of mountaineers,
who count him as one of themselves and
think him one of the best and ables men
in the country. Should he be elected
i Speaker, the Nashville Banner says, the
| hardy mountaineers would kiudle bonfires
; on the mountain tops and spend a mouth
i in rude festivities over the honor accorded
to themselves.
