The Land of Goshen. —.—

The field of Sir Garnet Wolseley s opera

tions is the celebrated Land of Goshen The site of Rameses, says the London News, is not a settled pomt; that was where the Israelites started from in the Exodus; the first march was at Succoth, the word means “tents,” so it was probably only a camping ground. Etham on the edge of the wilderness,or the desert; hence two marches brought them out of the black land of Khem, and into the sandy region, Pihahi roth, the next journey was between Migdol and the over against Baab Zephon. The maps given in Bibles generally place these names along the line from near Cairo to Suez, which will correspond with the Haj route of the present day, and the pil grims, when they start from Cairo to cross the desert, as they go in a body, bear many characteristics which suggest a resemblance to the account in Scripture of the Exodus As these pilgrims pass by this line, there is no reason against the supposition that the Hebrews went by it; but a bester ac- quaintance with the geography of Egypt has led to other theories, and a much more likely route has been found to the north of the Haj road. This is by the Wadi Tomlet or Tumeylat, which passes east from Zagazig by Tel-el-Kebir toward Ismailia. A distance of aboat fifty miles on this line would have brought them to the Red Sea, which is supposed to have then extended up to the Bitter Lakes, which were undoubtedly at some former period a part of the Red Sea, and an old branch of the Nile is supposed to have, at one time, flowed through this valley; parts of it are yet green; trees can grow, and there is still water found in it, so that it was a line to be preferred to that of of the Haj route M. de Lesseps, who is familiar with Egypt, and particularly with this valley, as the Sweet Water Canal flows through it, came to the conclusion that this was the route followed at the Exodus.

Working Clothes. |

Men and women are obliged to labour ; they must dress according to their work, and that is a2 it should be. Men are not expected to milk cows in a mauve-colour- ed summer suit, French kid boots, and a ‘‘pancake hat.” Oh, no! Neither is he expected to sit down at table in the same clothing he has worn in the stable, thereby making himself offensive to all lovers of cleanliness, and setting an example his sons will be quite apt to follew.

Neither would we have the wife and mother look like a harlequin on dress parade. If she have dirty work to do, she can Wear a neat print dress, have a large apron which is easily removed, and it costs but a trifle to pat a white linen collar around the neck, and a ruffle or cuffs in the sleeves, and these trifling additions brighten a plain face, and make the wearer much more presentable and attractive. ‘The woman who heeds little details in dress will never be under the humiliating neces- sity of making worse than useless excuses when expected surprised by strangers, for she is atways dressed for company. Is not mother prettier, looks younger, and really seems more agreeable when tidily dressed than when she looks as if robed for a beggar’s masquerade ?

There are many young women entering their life-long partnership, and we would earnestly urge upon them the necessity of giving attention to this important matter. Observe all the little courtesies and delicate attentions so precious during the days of courtship, and never permit them to be laid aside because he for whom they were practised is now a daily companion, whe shares her aims in life, and should share her burdens instead of ignoring them.

Artesian Wells in Agriculture.

Artesian wells are being brought into

common use by agriculturists in the western portions of the States. In San Francisco the success of artesian wells has been almost universal, and the advantages they afford upon the arid plains of New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada cannot be estimated. A correspondent of the San Francisco (all says:—‘* Where were formerly barren plains and desert, there are now the finest alfalfa fields, orchards, vineyards and wheat. Each one of these wells throws from 200, - 000 to 1,000,000 and 1,500,000 gallons of Water daily. One of the best and largest flows is on the ranch of J. Russell, of Oak- land, which has a flow of 1,250,000 gallons daily.” In Nevada, for example, these wells are essential. There is not a river or navigable stream in the entire State: and, as is indicated above, water is the thing most needed. Without it nothing can be made to grow. Yet, strange to say, some uninformed Canadians are induced to leave the fine fields and flowing streams of Ontario for such a barren waste.
