"The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie
down with the kid; * * * and a little child shall lead them. They

be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the
sea."--_Isaiah 11:6-9._
The next day Paulus with his two visitors walked about the city. He
described and explained the many deeply interesting scenes, and answered
the numerous questions directed to him. The foreigners did not fail to
note the wonderful advances made in the arts and sciences and their
practical application to everyday affairs. They had thought their own
country not behind in improvements, but here their own were far
surpassed.

Paulus. "You will be pleased with the children."
"This is an improvement on electricity," said their director, as seated
in an elegant car, they were carried through the city without noise or
jostle.
