place of this river was the fascination and
defeat of expmlitionI-I without number.

Not many years ego Bayard Taylor, our
great American traveler. wrote. “Since
Columbus first looked upon San Salvador,
the earth has but one emotion of triumph
left for her bestownl, and that she reserves
for him who shall first drink from the
fountui no of the White Silo under the snow
fields of KillmnINjnro." But the discovery
of the sources of the Nile by most peoplt
was considered an impossibility The ma

stopped all the expeditions for ages.

An intelligent hours said to Sir Samuel
W. Baker IIIIIl wife as they were on their
wny to accomplish that in which other:
had failed: “Give up the mad scheme of
the Nile source. How would it be possible
for a lady young and delicate to endure
what would kill the strongest man? Give
it up." But the work went on‘until Spoke
and Grunt and Baker found the two lakes
which are the source of what was called
the White Nile. and baptized these two
lakes with the names of Victoria and Al-
bert. These two lakes. filled by great rain-
falls and by accumulated snows from the
mountains, pour their waters, laden with
agricultural wmltll such on bleeeea no other
river, on down over the cataracts, on be
tween frowning mountains. on between

thousand miles and through a continent.

But the White Nile would do little fo.
Egypt if this were all. It would'keepite
banks and Egypt would remain a desert.
But from AlIyIIsinia there comes what is
called the Blue Nile, which, though dry or
nearly Iiry half the year, under tremendous
rains about the middle of June rises to
great momentum, and this Blue Nile
dashes with sudden influx into'the White
Nile. which in consequence rises thirty
feet and their combined waters inundnte
Egypt. with a rich soil which drops on all
the fields and gardens as it is conducted
by ditches and sluicee and canals every
whither.

The greatest damage that ever came to
Egypt come by the drying up of the RiveI
Nile. and the greath blessing by its
healthful and abundant flow. The famine
in Joseph's time came fromthe lack of squ
ilcient inundation from the Nile. I'ot
enough Nile is drought; too much Nile in
freahet and plague. The rivers of the earth
arethe mothers of its prosperity. if by
some convulsion of nature the Mississippi
should betaken from North America. or
the Amazon from South America. or the
Danube from Europe, or the Yenluei from
Asia—what hemispheric calamity! Still.
there ere other rivers that. could fertilize
and save that: countries.

Our own continent is gulchcd. is rib
boned,is glorified by innumerable water
courses. lint Egypt has only one great
rlver.end that is harnessed to draw all
the prosperitlee of malms in acreage semi-
lniiulte. What happens to the Nile. hep.
pens to Egypt. The Nilometer was to me
very suggestive an we went up and down
its damp stone steps and saw the pillar
marked with notches telling just how
high or low are the waters of the Nile.
When the Nile is rising four crlen every
morning run through the city announe
ing how many feet the riverhae risen—
tcn feet. fifteen feet, twenty feet. twenty-
four feet—and when the right height of
water is reached the gates of the canals
are flung open and the liquid and refresh
in; benediction is pronounced on all the
land.

As we start where the Nile empties into
the Mediterranean see. we behold awonI
devful fulfillment of prophecy. The Nile
in very ancient times used to have seven
months. An the great river approached
the no it entered the sea at seven different
pieces. lesioh prophesied, “l'helnrdshall
utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian
ass and shall smite it in the seven streams."
The fact is they are all destroyed but two,
