(Continued from 6th Page V
ond, or southern, peak. The apex
of the crest has been hollowed out
in an oval shape, and around this
are the foundations of a wall com*
posed of large and well-hewn
stones. To the south of this is
the ruin of a rectangular building
about 36 feet long and 33 feet
wide, with the entrance on the
east side. On the northeast is a
cavern hewn in the rock, about 30
feet in diameter and about 8 feet
high. At the entrance are the
bases of two columns. The oval
enclosures are doubtless one of
the high places so often mentioned
in the Bible (see Deut. 12,2, 3; I
Kgs. 14:23; 2 Kgs. 16:4; 17:10* 11;
Jer. 3:6; etc.). Here the worship
of Baal was in all probability car
ried on; and from this altar the
mountain received; one of its
names—wiz., .that of Baal-Hermon
(Jod. 3:3; T ehWm^ .-get)}; The
building , to th6 sotith of it is of
much later date, and ,is probably
that ol a teipple mentioned by
Jerome as standing on the summit
of Hermon. This.,’Sheikh Moun
tain’ of Syria, as . its Arabic name,
Jebel fcsh-Sheikh ['Mountain the
Chief,’ or‘the Mountain" of the
Old White-Headed Man'], So aptly
describes it, is mentioned frequent
ly in the Bible, and under several
different names. The first allu
sion to it occurs in Deut. 3:8,9;
from which passage we learn that
the Sidonians called it Sirion and
the Amorites Shenir, both of
which words signified ‘Breastpiate’
and were doubtless suggested by
its shinining, glittering surface.
The title Shenir, or Seuir, occurs
again in I Chron. 5:23; Sg. of $ol.
4:8; and Ezek. 27:5. In Deut. 4:48
and Psa. 133:3, it is called Sion,
'the Lifted-Up.’ Elsewhere it is
spoken of by its best-known name
of Hermon; see Deut. 4:41; Josh.
11:17; 13:3; **sa. 89:12; 133:3. etc.
This grand snow-clad mountain
top was the natural landmark of
all Israel. It was to the ancient
people of God the symbol of Di
vine ^majesty, glory, beneficence,
and love, as well as of human wor
ship, adoration, and praise. But
that which makes Hermon of the
greatest interest to the Chris
tian is that on its slopes occur
red, most probably, that mystic
event which is known as ‘The
Transfiguration of our Lord.’
Prom the context of the accounts
as given in the Gospels—see
Matt. 19:13; Mk. 8:27; Lk. 9;i8
it seems in the highest degree
probable that ‘the exceeding high
mountain’ was in the immediate
neighbourhood of Caesarea Philip
pi, the modern Bonias; in which
case it could have been none other
than Hermon itself.And no theatre
could have been more sublime or
appropriate for so transcendentally
mysterious and supernatural
scene—Matt. 17:1-8; Mk. 9:2-8;
Lk. 9^8-36”. Hermon is elevated
a little above 9,000 feet, while the
Lebanon range rises to 11,000 feet;
but Hermon in shape and position
is far more conspicuous, and with
out doubt the most commanding
mountain throughout the Holy
Land’s length and oreadth.

Kidney trouble has

child urinates too often, if the urine scalds

age when it should he able to control the

culty is kidney . trouble, and the first
Step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to. a diseased condition of
the kidneys and bladder and not to a

Some Whste Waters Are Charge*
With Megle ar Mlraralona Power.
Though there are hundreds of wells
supposed to possess mngienl power
scattered nil over England, the general
public is ignorant of their locality or
the romantic st.oriea connected with
each one. There may he a possible ex
ception In. the well of St. ICeyne, In
Cornwall, for Southey has made It fa
mous lu a witty little poem. The mag
1c of Its waters is such that the hus
band or wife who drinks first from It
after leaving the altar will have the
upper hand over the mute for their
Joint lives. The bride of whom Southey
tells its did not wait, till after the mar
riage ceremony to pay a visit, to the
well, but took the precaution of taking
a bottle with her to the church.
Another well, In Monmouthshire,
which has a peculiar fascination for
the unmarried maidens la known la
the ‘Virtuous well." For generations
the maidens of that locality have ac
credited It with marvelous powers lu
forecasting their futures. They have
only to drop a pebble into Its water
and count the resultant bubbles, for
each bubble represents a month of
walling for the day which will make
them* brides, in order to propitiate
the penlus which presides over the well
,lt is necessary to decorate the bram
bles which shade It with hits of white
cloth,
JThen there are the so called holy
wells which have many medicinal vir
tues. Such a one Is St. Winifred’s, at
Holywell, which Is accredited with
cures that are almost miraculous. The
legend of Its origin is n very pretty
one. It Is snid thnt. twelve centuries
ago St, Winifred, the winsome daugh
ter of a Welsh chief, was wooed by
Prince Caradoc, n prince of ill repute.
She declined his persistent advances,
and at last tie killed her In a fit of
rage. From the spot on which St.
Winifred’s lifeblood fell then* gualied
forth a strewn of crystal water which
has worked miracles In her name for
so many centuries.
Practically all the Ills to which the
flesh Is heir can be cured by one or an
other of these wells. St. Nlunn’s, lu
Cornwall, is said to restore lunatics to
sanity, but the patient must, bo Im-
merei*d In the water and held there nu-
tll the Incutli has nearly left his body.
I’hls seems a heroic measure, lint even
this Is not so severe ns the treatment,
which must, he endured tf a madman Is
to be cured at Llandegla well, lu
Wales, for after the victim Is nearly
drowned be In trussed like a fowl and
laid under Die communion table of the
neighboring church for the night.
