Titus took Jerusalem, Bare cocheleas was its conqueror; it fell in turn to 'Julius Serverus, Heraclius, Omar, the Charezmians, Godfrey, Saladin and Frederick Since the Christian era began the Jews have never taken it, but Jew, Pagan,*Chris- tian and Mohamtnedan has each had his term of triumph. As a writer in the New York Sun observes: "Were all the ancient cemeteries with which the city is surrounded emptied of their bones it would be difficult to tell whether lew or Pagan, Christian or Mohammedan would predominate in the various assemblages of races, creeds and peoples."

One always associates heai her with Scotla.nd, and it is one of the -chief glories of that land of eolorz; but heather, or ling, is an evergreen shrub which. grows all over Northern Europe, certain ifecies even being found in Africa, where it reaelves the height of ha,rge bushes. The Scotch are so fond of their heather thitt they have taken it with them wen they have removed to distant shores; probably this is why it is to -day found on certain portioam of the At- lantic coast- fromNewfoundlandto New jereey.. In Scotland the blossoming of the heather is looked forward to as a great annual event. The masses of lilac rose bloom spread over wide Christianity.

The ground floor usually accommodates the pigs, which no ' How many perished by the eword or from hunger and dieease in this mem- orable siege is uncettain,but the /111111- ber was probably well over half a mil- lion. Josephus says that through one of the city gates more than 115,000 bodies passed to their shallow graves without the wills. The spread of Christianity gave eriore importance to the city of Jerusalem, and in the time of' Constantine the discovery of the Holy Sepulchre and the -erection of the church of the Anastasia helped to make it a great centre for many mil- lions besides the Jews. Pilgrnnages began, and from th e Most di -dant part of Europe devout Men and wo- men journeyed to Jerusalem to kiss the sacred soil and meditate before its holy -shrines; The early fathers of the Church feared that the reverence in which the city was held would result in idolatry and many of them rebuked the pilgrimages. Their fuhninations were without effect, however, and in- ereasing throngs continued to visit Jerusalem,until arrested by the armies Of the Persian king, nom, who cap- tured the city in 611, when 90,000 Christians were slain. Eighteen yes later Reraclius re- took Jerusalem, but eight years after- wards the Moslems laicteiege and be- came the -masters of the place., In 1076 Jerusalem opened her gates to the Seljukian Turks, and then the world learned of the hundreds of thousands of Chrstians who had been murdered or taken captive in the years when the Moslems had occupied the city, but had guaranteed certain rights to pilgrims. Then it was that the idea spread through Europe of a great Chrstian army wresting the city forever from the Moslems, and Peter the Hermit roamed over Europe preaching the Crusade. Despite the early. opposition of Rome'Peter so roused the Christian world that final- ly Pope Urban gave his blessing to the mission, promising remission of sins to all who undertook it. Six million crusaders, it is estimat- ed,- took the field, and after incredible hardshps and bloodiest fightign they captured Jerusalem. In their hour of triumph the committed atrocities that have hardly been duplicated be- tween the and the present war. Hun- dreds of thousands, if not indeed mil - Ions of Christians and Moslems feel in the First Crusade. Although the city itself remained in Christian hands -another Crusade was thought neces- 1 sary a few years later in order to clear . the intervening roads of Moslems. This I was - a failure. Then followed the pathetic Children's Crusade, inspired by the romantie notion that only in- nocent children could aceom lish the conquest of the Holy Land.

On ra grey winter ornings, when the fog clung to the trees and spread over the stunted shrubberies, the peasant viild would, stand inside its open (.Vo,or threshing the beans with a great unwieldy Sall. In the say, hard by, the pigs grunted. Bert* the door the fowls gossiped. In the sum- mer the scene was much the same, except for the absence of the grey- ness and fog and the increased size of the pigs and fowls. A monoton- ous contentment held the plaee until one day, when the sun blazed down on the plains and the barges on the canal basked in the heat, word came to the peasant wife that an was not well with her country. That was the . beginning of the chano. The barn was desolate dur- eng the early autumn months after that August day. The peasant was . safe in France When the -new oe- capanth arrived hurriedly, and settled in. the cottage. And soon all the _cottages round about were filled, and still ne ,iimpants arrived. .... One n 'eelthou- the- fields fay - e -e oe brown ben th the harvest moon, a dozen itbnieless stragglers stopped before the door where the peasant wife used to flail her beans. Their journey had been long and tortuous. Through clumps of forest, over ploughed fields, across streams, and past solemn rows of barge k which everywhere dot the canals in Fland- ers, came thts strange human proces- sion, their eyes wide in. wonderment at the sights which met them. They walked with difficulty, for their long, black skirts trailed heavily in the iiodden fields'. One of them had seen 8-3 winters, She could not walk, and had not walked for many mouths. Her journey was made in a wheel- barrow, which the others in turn trundled. This was part of a colony of nuns whose' convent near Bruges had to be abandoned when the enemy marched' into Beigitim. Their first glimpse' of the world outside their sacred walls was -when their own eountryinen were brought to Bruges wounded. They were 'obliged to pass by the convent, and many received their first dressings from the hands of the black -robed sisters. Others, too, on their way to battle, stopped at th.e convent walls and turned he through the gate to receive refreshment. Some four or five hundred came, every day, for weeks, and were look- ed after by the nineteen nuns -for, although peosperous, the colony was email. • The nineteen left their home to- gether the night they started out to find a, new lodging in the part of the country where the enemy had not 'Yet penetrated. - Seven became separ- ated, and wanderdd ,aimlessly about the fonds. They never reached the small corner which has been kept free from the Qerman heel, and are now eoinewirtare within the area from which no *VS comes. These were the twelve refugees who -paused before the barn * door. They occupied the barn for many wean' months. For a bed, they had the bare loft, with a thin layer of straw; for a coverlet, a strip of car- pet from their chapel. The govern- ment allowed each 30 centimes a day for the purchase of such _ food as could be purchased. It was mainly potatoes. Their neighbors were mostly refugees like themselves, and could give them but little help. But they managed to exist through the first winter months, even the old Marie, who was carried in the wheel- barrow. Those mouths brought more unaccustomed sight- to their eyes. For that part of Flanders, theueh not actually invaded, was within range of. the enemy's guns and with- in the airman's radius. The barn escaped both bore's and aliens, though -the fields round about were ploughed with theta. In the sprieg the nuns were diseeveerd by an Eng- lishwoman who motored up and soon afterwards established a depot a stone's throw away. . In the big subterranean living room of their new home the nuns ehaped flowers: there is a white heather, but the commonest shades vary from pink tp purple. In August the moors land hillsides seem spread with a purple carpet, Aside from being a thing of beauty, the heather has been put to many uses by the Scotch people. The longest stems :rum been made sky the housewives into brooms, the s'hort- er into brushes, and _sometimes the little shoots are Woven into baskets. Oftentimes the cling heather, weth the peat in. which its roots are em- bedded, is burned for fuel and cook- ing. In early days the huts of the Scotdb. Highlanders, known as "sealinge," were roughly made of heathee stems, held together by peat and made into a. kind of mortar by dry grass and straw. The Highland- ers also considered a bed of heather the most coraforta.ble mattress known. Several varieties of heather yield excellen': honey, aad, during the blossoming season, many hives of bees aree4ought to the moors. , There a.170 420 different kinds of heather; seven of them are tound in the British Isles, a few being met with in Ireland only.

'Here his farming ambitions end. ,. At Old Unttall, 200 mileS from the east coast, In Rhodesia, is a flourishing agricultural college that is putting some new ideas of farm- ing into his irresponsible head. Under the old regime, husband and wife go Into the fteld, carrying the crudest kind of native hoe. They spend several 'days in. the back- breaking toil reittuired to turn up the land. This done, the farmer sows a small gran like millet into the rows dug with his little hoe, and here and there throughout Ate field, about five paces apart, he plants two or tliFee grains of corn:- With whole tone of fertilizer available, he never thinks of enriching the soil. He sees that the white min gets vastly more grain than he does from apiece of land exactly the same size, and his own diminutioa 'vegetables seem smaller than ever to him when he seee the white man's harvest, but It 'needed' the agrieultural college at Old Pintail to make him see how easily he can, get the same results on his own little garden patch. The work at the college is con- ducted by the Methodist Episcopal mission, and conelists of simple in.- struetion in farming and intensive gardening and -a course in Pnimal husbandry, including the judging of .stock for market purposes and know- ledge of simple diseases common to animals in tropical, countries.
