and undisturbed tranquility is a great world of life so inaccessible to us that so Jar we have only explored its merest fringe and only learned its existence from an occasional glimpse of a few of denizens of that unexplored and mysterious realm In fact until the British Government Sent- out the on its three and a half years voyage of scientific exploration our knowledge of the depths of the ocean was mere conjecture But since the discovery of that new world we know that it supports a teeming life and that organisms of many forms and varieties live and thrive on its sunless vales and hills and drear slopes and chasms But though the suns rays never penetrate those nethermost of the mighty yet bounteous Na ture has compensated for it by pro viding many of the dwellers of those dark regions perhaps all with a boss or lantern or even in Home cases with an ever- shining skin illuminating the waters aronnd and enabling them their prey the principal denizens those nether depths arc the great uncouth creatures which at intervals have ascended to the upper seas and from time to time have Wen observed by numerous witnesses whose testimony however it has faHi the fashion to ridicule and treat with incredulity though the actual specimen cast up recently on the Australian shores should settle the Question once for all- But an of carnage must exist Sown in dark abysses For those giant octopus those mighty sinuous serpents and per haps other great misshapen forms which mortal man has never seen require very hecatombs of vic tims for their dally food What a and ghastly scene must be pre sented by the den of for instance a horde of those mighty calamars such as those which have occasionally been thrown up on the South American coast Here a gigantic bleareyed monster bringing a young whale to the den for the food of its young tearing the struggling animal to pieces with Its great horny beak Or here the lair of a number of mon strous- viciouslookiiig snakes which could swallow a whole whale for a meal Or here perhaps a deadly between one of those gruesome monsters and a huge and colossal octopus the victor devouring the vanquished But although these things must be yet the contemplation of that which must always be taking place In those abysmal depths is not agree able and it Is fortunate that it hidden from our sight But a time will come when the whole vast circle of creation throughout the spheres will be within our range with all the beauties and all the radiance and of the But only those who serve and obey their and who have accepted their Redeemer as their Saviour will these high privileges The rest shut out of It all It pays to advertise In the Era a mm As Reeyi for Day Monday Dont Miss the Concert Ball in Sutton i Monday Jan Canadas
