ds-rd- Mr. Leafs standpoint is that the-international position _ of the Pound Sterling will be seriously challenged if Germany. as a result ‘oi the. adoption of the Dawes re- _rt",is placed on a gold basis and rigidly kept to it for exchange es. He says that the possibil- ities of a combination between the dollar and the gold mark, between the credit resources of the United- States on the one hand and German enterpriseand world commerce on the other, form a prospect which cannot be regarded without anxiety so ioug/‘as the pound is depreciated in the exchange markets of the world. Ali the more so because Ger- many is to be stimulated to an en~ onmous expansion of exports. “The

ed out of world finance between the two great gold currencies. the dollar and the mark, in self-defen- ce we should be forced on to a gold basis for the pound, wilether we wished or not." Therefore in his

Portrait . ' 0f Th6 Christ

(By Dominion New service) LONDON July lL-ln ‘mo Aflbl engaged in 61881118 s cellar or well in the city of Antioch came upon some underground chambers. Among the debris was found em- bedded certain treasure, which comprised six or seven complete obiecta in silver and innumerable s'iver frsgrsments. Among these relics were a. plain silver chalice of very early mediaeval date, some silver book covers, two crosses, and a remarkable and unique ail- ver chalice. This last has been named the Great Chalice of Anti- och. ln Paris the oxldisation was removed from it by Alfred Andre. in i914, on the eve of the Battle of the Marne, the chalice was re- moved for safety from Paris. and in the following year it was shown to Dr. Gustavus A. Eisen, who sf- ter a study of the chalice was led to the conclusion that it is a Chris- t‘sn relic of the first century, and that its sculptures are the earliest known portraits of Christ and some of the Apostles. . Dr. Eisen places the exact date of the relic between 60 and ‘i0 A. D. lie is convinced that the p01‘- traits are authentic and actual, and were made at a time when most of the personsges represented were yet alive. According to Dr. Eisen's identification there are two por- traits of Christ, one showing Him in youtb and the other after the ilesurrection. The latter is utter- ly unlike any of the conventional portraits or those conceived by the great masters. ‘He is shown en- throned, in front view, with head slightly inclined to the left but writb gaze directed straight forward. He is vested in a toga, falling in nat- ural folds, and has His arms thrown wide apart. The figure is slender and delicate, and the face is possessed of the most arresting individuality, The hair is smooth and without locks. To quote Dr. Eisen, “it ‘is wonderful face, such as no artist has ever been able do create from imagination." It has a broad forehead, penetrating eyes, but most noticeable of all is the sweet expression of the mouth, which is at once smiling and serio- ous.

The task of identifying the fig- ures occupied several years. These of Christ and St Peter were com- paratively easy. The first clue to the others was found in that of St Luke, on account of the suggestion of ‘intelligence and learning. 8t. Mark is shown with features rough and rustic, and characteristically Jewish. The representation of him with a water-jar, and with the bodily form developed by water- carryng, is extremely interesting, ‘in view of the traditions that St. ‘Mark was a water-carrier in ‘his ,ycutb. The figure of St. Peter cor- responds to the tradition portraits in most particulars. St. John shows a remarkable resemblance to the portraits of Cardinal Newman. 8t. James is portrayed as a man of mystic thought, gentleness and much sweetness. St. Mathew at- tracts attention by his unusual dignity and the regularity of the radiating folds of his dress. His features are Semitic of higher class, with short upper lip and small mouth set high up near the nose. On his arm is a phylactery. St. Paul is also remarkably digni- fled, with a bearing of authority and power.

St. James the Less has a face very alive, expressing feeling, emo- tion, sereuity and Judgment, coup- led with unusual beauty of form. St. Jude was least easy to identify. St. Andrew is represented as a powerful man of imposing physi- que. Christ, as a youth, is shown with the scroll of the New Law in his hand. ' The workmanship of the chalice, is exquisite. It stands 7% inches high. and consists of an ovoid

or even weeks, is a contingency which must not be overlooked.

Hopeful trade outlook.

The more all-round hopeful feel- ing with regard to trade in general. both home and export, still continu- es. albeit improvement is compara- tively siow and in some connec- tions is retarded by the approach- ing holiday season, while labor con- ditions are still rather chaotic. The difficulties in this respect with re» gird‘ to teh coal industry, however have been settled and peace is as» sured for at least the next twelve months. Exactly what effect this will ultimately have upon coal pric- es is somewhat of a problem. sincc the settlement which provides higher wages for the operatives, will certainly entail the compulsory closing of a number of the poorer grade mines which are not in a po- aition, to meet the new scslelof wag

Many large Southern Contin- ental contracts, which are in the of. fins are timing eagerly competed for and there are also some large in- quiries for the Scandinavian coun- tries.

is known to have been generally superceded at the end of the first century.

Dr. Eisen suggests that the chai- ice may have been one of the ves- sels hidden by Tbsodoritus, who was martyred for concealing from Julian the Apostate some object of great importance among the trea- sure oi the Basilica of Constantine in Antioch.

But what strikes the imagination even more than the consideration oi the chalice itself‘ and the thought that it depicts Christ as He actually was, is the further suggestion made by Dr. Eisen res- pecting the inner cup contained in the chalice. This inner cup is of crude workmanship, without de- coration and not of fine metal, and the question naturally arises, Why should so crude on object he guard- cd with such care, in such a splen- did hoider—-tbe finest that human art could procure? Dr. Eisen ans- wers that question by suggesting not only that the inner cup is n most precious relic, but that it is indeed the Holy Gra-ii itself, the ‘cup which Christ used at the Last Supper at the institution of the Sacrament of Holy Communion. Certainly it is difficult, if the gen- uincness of the chalice be allowed, to account for the presentation in such manner, intact and unaltered, "of a vessel so imperfect, crude, and intrinsically vnlneiess, , by assuming that the maker of the chalice believed the inner cup, for which it serves as a reliquary to have been, in souls way or other, a precious relic of the person of Christ and His Apostles, too sac- .rcd to he altered, too precious, per- haps, to he even used.
