Photograph is in a book with a description beneath ; printed description: "(Jonah, iv:11.)--'And should not I spare Nineveh,
that great city, wherein are more than six score thousand persons that can not discern between their right hand and their
left hand; and also much cattle.' Here we have the truth plainly taught that God was interested in, and planned for the welfare
of cities outside of the domain of the promised land. From the fact that He specially raised up the Jewish race to teach the
great truths of His nature and kingdom, many have thought He left cities among the heathen nations to themselves. But we learn
from the Scriptures that God's oversight encompassed all peoples and cities. The above picture, 'A Candy Seller' in Beyrout,
was taken in a city built up outside the limits of Palestine. This city, however, is destined to be a Christian city, for
already, through the influence of missionary work, many of its inhabitants are Christians."
