Rev. John Phalen, Ph.B., Brooklyn,
W.S., writes“l»>r about three years I
have been troubled with severe, .dis-*

when warning uphill.
<[On my last charge, in the town of
Guysboro, we hud a number of heavy
hills, and on coming up the hill from
(Commercial Street, to my house, a
distance of about one hundred and fifty
yards, I frequently had to stop, five or
Isix times, to get my breath, and ease
toff the awful distressed feeling. I saw
your advertisement for

took cloven boxes. They certainly
helped me, and for over a year I was not
much distressed. I am not taking them
now, and can get along very well, ex

We do not advice buying any stocks

is no question but that stock prices
are tco high from a standpoint of earn

—Which is merely another way of say

much larger reaction than we have
thus far witnessed before the invest
ment buyer can actually get his j

The man who buys stocks to-day
should be fully aware that he is pay

“Isn’t there a saturation point for

II. THE CHOSEN QF THE LORD, 6-13.
Introduction—Early in his reign
Saul found himself in deadly conflict
with the Philistines. These ancient
neighbors and enemies of Israel hall
been. for some years, while Samuel
was judge, disposed to keep the peace.
Now they became more aggressive,
They appear to have occupied Qibeah,
maintaining a fortified camp there,
and holding the neighboring country
in subjection (10:5, Revised Version
L.’ )• This was Saul’s own home
town and a conflict was unavoidable.
His brave and energetic son, Jon
athan, made an attack on this Philis
tine post (ch. 13: 3-4, Geba-Gibeah),
and the Hebrews were called to war.
The Philistines quickly responded to
the challenge and came up into Saul’s,
territory with a great army. For the
story of this war and its results see
chs, 3 and 14. The history tells us
that the war continued “all the days
of Saul,” and that Saul established
and maintained a small but effective
and disciplined standing army, chs.
13:2; 14:52.
The causes oi the breach between
Saul and Samuel are not difficult to
discover. In the first place Saul was
quite evidently not of a religious turn
of mind, When we first meet him we
note the fact that he knows nothing
of sq famous a prophet as Samuel, al
though his servant, who accompanied
him, knows him vey well, 9:5-10. It
is a matter of surprise to his friends
that he should have been found on one
occasion in a company of - prophets,
and “It became a proverb, Is Saul also
among the prophets?” While, no
doubt, profoundly influenced, and for,
a time changed, by the interest which
Samuel took in him and the remark
able experience of being called and
consecrated to the kingship (10:5-
12), this influence soon passed and
unde the stress of'war his old jealous
and1 imperious nature reasserted
itself. The'stories told in chapters 13
and 15 show plainly how he chafed
under the restraint put upon him by
Samuel, who assumed the right as
God’s prophet to bring him messages
and commandments from God. To
Samuel the divine kingship was still
supreme, and the earthly king but
God’s viceregent. Samuel set himself
to maintain the theocracy, and when
he saw that Saul cared little for the
things for which he cared much, he ■'
declared that God had rejected him
from being king. In contrast to Saul,
David proved to be the man after
God’s own heart. There is no doubt
that Samuel, true prophet of God,
trusted and beloved bv the people,
wise and far-seeing with the experi
ence of many ,-yearS of power and
responsibility, would have added great
strength to Saul’s kingdom had Saul
been wise enough to retain his coun
sel and his friendship. It is pathetic
to see how. in after years, when Sam
uel was- dead, he bitterly regretted
and vainly sough the counsel which
he now rejected.
I. SAMUEL’S VISjT TO BETHLEHEM, 1-5;
The breach between Samuel and
Saul at Gilgal seems to have been
final (see chap. 15). “Samuel came
no more to see Saul until the day of
his death.” They met again but once
and that when Saul went to Ramiah
to call them to account for some fault
or crime of which they had boon
guilty, and they feared that this visit
might be for the same purpose. Sam
uel invites them to the sacrificial
feast,
II. THE CHOSEN OF THE LOUD, 643.
It was, no doubt, in the privacy of
Jesse's house that Samuel met his
sons, The first of these, Eliab, must
have been a young man of fine ap
pearance, fbr Samuel said to himself,
“Surely this is the chosen one.” But
he had learned wisdom from the fail
ure of Saul, and no longer put his
trust in outward appearance. Thus
the inward voice admonished him, i
‘‘For the Lord seeth not as man
seeth; for man looketh on the outward
appearance, but the Lord looketh on
the. heart.”
At last the youngest was brought
in from the field, where he kept the
sheep. His red hair and fair skin1
were accounted marks of unusual
beauty. He was “of . a beautiful coun
tenance and goodly to look to.” H4-
was chosen, and to him also came the
spirit of the Lord, giving new direc
tion and new and purified’ ambition.
And so it was said of him long after
wards that the Lord1,
Chose David also his servant,
And took him from the sheepfolds,
To feed Jacob his people, and Israel
his inheritance.
’ So he fed them according to the in
tegrity of his heart;
And guided them by the skilifulness
oi his hands. Ps, 78:70-72.
