ANCIENT OTr OF TTRE
*.. ora Seen* of Many Furi out Bat
He*—New Town of 6,000
Inhabitants.
Decidedly, old SIdon Is off the beaten
tourist true!;. Only the rare visitor to
ft>e Holy Lund ever tastes the distinc¬
tive flavor of l|s charm. Although the
names of Tyre and SIdon, because of
their recurrence in the Bible, and In
'literature that has borrowed Its Image
ry from Scripture, are more familiar
to the civilized world than those of
some cities of a million inhabitants,
the actual places are seldom seen by
strangers. I
These erties—or city sites, for today
,

of about 8,000 Inhabitants, although It
Was once the prize for which kings
and cqnquerors , eqptended—suggests
thoughts of the parsing of the pomp
and power of the past—“Sic transit
gloria niundi.”
Phqraolis of Egypt, kings bf Assyria
aqd Babylon and Persia and Greece
and Rome, as well as the Crusaders
and th« Moslems, all fought furious
battles and maintained Incredible
sieges for the capturf of Tyre. Al¬
though encrusted with historical as¬
sociations and literary traditions, this
once-pewerful • Tyre, which planted
Carthage and established colonies in
Bqrope, and was mistress of the Medi¬
terranean, is now a ruin with few
traces of its ancient grandeur, all hav¬
ing been submerged by sand and sea.
SIdon is unlike all the other cities
of the world. Even the East of which
it is a part has no other surviving city
to compare with it. Perhaps • the
streets are not as old as they seem;
for the city was cruelly decimated,
again and again, during the period of
the Crusades— not to speak of Its
earlier vicissitudes and glories—yet the
vaulted highways, low and narrow, im¬
press a visitor as having the flavor of
immemorial antiquity, The arched
bazars of Constantinople and Damas¬
cus, and tiie few vaulted streets of
old Jerusalem, are rot to be compared
with the covered thoroughfares of
Sidon.—William T, Ellis in Christian
Herald.

There Is a certain congressman who
has the reputation of being the neat¬
est fence straddler in the profession,
a man. who is always anxious to con¬
ciliate 1 everybody. A measure on
which there was a marked division of
opinion was about to come up.
“Will the gentleman vote for this
bill if It pomes up?” demanded a mem¬
ber, aiming a finger at the congress¬
man in question.
The latter looked from one side of
the house to the other and slowly an¬
swered : •
“I will—”
Immediately the opposition broke
into a storm of booing. As soon as
the member could make himself heard,
he continued:
“—not—”

and the speaker added hastily:

After the usual Saturday romp a
group of children gathered in the
drawing Doom for some music.
As bedtime drew near the mother
said: “Now, children, choose a hymn
to finish up with and then you must
all say good night.”
“Let's htyre ‘Ere again our Sabbath
close,’ said a little girl of seven.
“Well, I ^itok that wonld be more
