The fact that the Arabian has a 1 ' ' level croup and possesses two less 'ver'tebrae in his tail than other, breeds, may account for the dis tingnished tail carriage.

Undoubtedly John means by these. words that Christ first, in point of time, existed be. ' fore John the 1#antist; that he :was, in other words, none other than the 'Eternal Son qf God. Christ identified \ "And knew him not; but that. he Should be made manifest' to Israel, for this cause ,came I bap- tizing in water. And- John bare witness, saying, I have beheld'the Spirit descending as, a dove out of • heaven; • and 'it- abode upon him:" This whole incident is very parallel to the transfiguration. In both, Christ is miraculously glori- fied previous to setting ' out' to suffer; in both a voice from heaven bears witness to Tim. • Christ's Mission "And ,i knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize in water, he said unto me, upon whoreso. ever thous It see the, spirit des- cending, and abiding upon ' him, the same is he that bautizeth in the Holy Spirit: And I have seen, and have borne witness that this is the Son of God."

How shall' we become 'fishers of men'? Not by our own clever - nese or skill. If 'we want to be successful . fishers of Men, we must go to Jesus Christ for the necessary, ''qualifications. The question -is ...; often asked why Christ,' for the most part chose fishermen, . and not men in political power, , or great .scholars. For. one thing' these men 'were not ,'bound by the traditions "of Judaea, and the .Pharisees who s' dominated there; for .another thing, they were men of robust health' and rugged nature, who would be able to endure the great est hardships in their preaching ministry.
