Royal Exile Sermon on Christ as an Imperial Exile
Dr. Talmage delivers a Sunday morning sermon in Washington on April 19 about Jesus as an exile from heaven to earth. He portrays Christ as an imperial exile and a missionary ship to humanity, stressing homesickness, hostility on earth, and the ultimate return home after suffering for mankind. The talk blends biblical examples with global exiles and ends with a devotional of hopeful gates ajar imagery.

Sacred running oxen of Ceylon dwarf cattle breed
Among Ceylon's domesticated animals scientists note the sacred running oxen. These dwarfs rarely exceed thirty inches in height, with one kept since 1891 about 22 inches tall and weighing 109 pounds. They are used for fast trips and light loads, four can pull a two wheeled cart with a 200 pound load for sixty to seventy miles a day, and they have run 100 miles in a day and night without food or water. Origin remains unknown, present in Buddhist regions for over a millennium.
