Eternal life—Literally, the life of the ages. The expression "eter- nal life" was familiar to the Jews before Christ eamo, as is shown in the apocryphal hook of Enoch (15. 44). But the lawyer, like the rich young man who asked Jesus the same question, had an erroneous view of eternal life and its rela- tion to this life, Jesus and his fol- lowers referred to it as a spiritual condition, the divine life in the soul.

Its crew may decide to aban- don it and take to the boats, but if they neglect to open the peacocks on their departure their ship may float for many a long day, Tho erratic movements of some der- elicts are almost uncanny. Not so very long .a new Norwegian sailing ship, the Grown, left Nova Scotia for a South American port. It was laden with timber, and while still to the North Atlantic Ocean was overtaken by a terrible storm, which dismasted and left it a battered wreck. The crew, realizing- It was useless to remain on board, abandoned it and took to the boats, Dover to be heard of again, but their ship, although it vanished completely for no less than three months, was sighted at the end of this time on the edge of the Sar- gasso Sea, a good seven hundred miles from where disaster overtook it, Soon aftsrwnrds it was elghtod off Bermuda, bot then disappeared again, and may still bo drifting about tiro ocean. Another sailing ship was abandoned off Cape May. The crew endeavored to destroy it by fire on their depar- ture, but, although 1t blazed furiously, the sodden, water-logged cargo Avea- tually extinguished the flumes. A few weeks later the hulk was off the English coast and it was thought it would be dashed to pieces on the shore, but, altering its course, it pro- ceeded to the southward along the French coast and was next seen near the Azores. Having got thus far, it proceeded to cross the Atlantic, and after covering fully six thousand miles in its wanderings, finally drifted ashore near Panama, Derelicts are sometimes salved and bring in a large sum la salvage money to the crews of the ships who tow them into port.
