Too hare seen some costly and beau tiful churches, especially If you liave 1 traveled in Europe, Yen may perhaps lave gauged the religions devotion of a given sect by tbo money it baa lav ished on lta temple, and If this is your standard do you know who are the moat devout religionists in the world? The Greek church in Russia and the ' Roman cburcb In Italy reveal great de-1 vorion, but their piety, measured by the above standard. 1s trivial when compared to that of the Sikhs, disciples of Knnak Shah, in the Punjab, now British India. At Amritsar, about thir ty miles from Lahore, where Edwin Lord Weeks painted bis wonderful ori ental pictures, there Is a Sikh temple that is without a peer in the Christian world. It was built when the politico religious organization waa at the pin nacle of its power and ail the wealth and splendid decorative feeling of the orient were at the disposal of the buliden. ' The temple itself, which was at one time served by COO priests, Is sixty feet long and a boot half that width. It la surrounded by a deep depression, which la ealied the "Fount of Immortality The bridge leading across this to the entrance of the temple proper is floor ed by plates of engraved silver, each twelve feet square. The bridge ta Il luminated by gold lamps on marble pedestals. The walls of the temple are marble, lnlnld by marvelous mosa ics. The roof is composed of three gilded domes, surrounded by small golden cupolas, and the doors are of solid sliver. All this Is but a setting for the most costly and ornate alrar in the world.
