Land of Promise (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 become so prevalent that it is not uncom mon for .1 child to be born afflicted with weak kidtievs. If the child urinates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an age when it should he able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet ting, dependupoti it, thecause of thediffi- 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 habit as most people suppose.

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.
