student in college, boarded with the
mother of the writer, and we often went
fishing for trout in what is now known as
Nall brook. At that thne the students
called it Hawthorne's brook. He was
rather reserved in planner, and had but
taw associates, When in college, he was
not over 5 feet 8 inches in height. It was
the custom at that time for the students,
when they met President Allen to raise

8. "Daniel purposed in bis heart that
he would not defile himself." The verso
selected for the golden text does not always
seem to reach the heart of the lesson. but
in this ease I think it does. Daniel may
truly be saki to leave been a man of holy
purposes and desires. In chapter x, 11,
19, he is called a nnan greatly beloved, and
the margin - says a man of desires, In
chapter ix, 3, he says, "eI set my face unto
the Lord God, to seek by prayer and sup-
plications. with fasting:and sackcloth and
ashes." He purposed at all cost to know
the God of Israel and live only for Him.
•a -Now God had brought Daniel into
favor and tender love with the prince of
the eluluelts." It is most profitable to
note in this; propheey and in all Scripture
the working of God. and to yield ourselves
fully to Him that He may work in us is
the st't•ret of the beat possible Christian
life, In verse 2 it is said that the Lord
gave Jehoiakint and the holy vessels into
the hand of the king of Babylon, and in
verse 17 God rave Daniel and his friends
knowledge and skill in all learning and
wisdom. We learned last quarter in John's
gospel that all circumstances are intended
to give God an opportunity to be glorified
tJohu ix, 3; xi, 4),
10. "And the mince of the eunuchs said
unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king,"
The fear of man bringeth a snare, but
whose trusteth in the Lord happy is he.
The prince feared near, for he slid not
know God. Daniel knew God and feared
no man. We may hope that through
Daniel the prince came to know the God
of Daniel. Unless through us those who
know not God are learning to know Him,
tall* testimony is not as good as it tuight
be.
11, le. •`Prove thy servants, I beseech
thee, ten days, and let them give us pulse
to eat and water to drink." The blessing
of the Lord upon very plain food will do
more for our health than the richest food
without Ills blessing. Man doth not live
by bread alone, but by every ward of God

dences Our Lord saki that Ilis works

although there may be no sin in eating
meat or drinking; wine, yet to cause an-
other to stumble by doing either, or by at-
tending the opera or the theater, indulge
mg in the dance or the card table, is
wrong hefore ( led t Rom. xiv, 21). The
child of Nod does not need the things of
this world to ,ati.fy his soul. He becomes
abundantly satisfied with. Him who is al-
together lovely
15. "Fairer and fatter in flesh than all
the children.' This was the condition
of Daniel and his friends at the end of ten
days as compared with the others who
t
were chosen n with them to stand in the
king's palate It was manifest in their
case that the blessing of the Lord made
rich even in the matter of flesh and blood
(Prov. x, 2e) The eyes of the Lord run
to and fro throughout the whole earth to
show Himself strong on behalf of those
whose hearts are whole toward Him (II
Chron. xvi, 9).
10. "Thus Melzar took away the portion
of their meat and the wine that they should
drink and gave then. pulse." And some
would say that they were altogether too
narrow minded. and should have eaten
what was set before therm, asking no ques-
tions, but it was to honor the God of Is-
rael that they did it. Some Christians are
now considered very odd indeed because
they have adopted as a life motto "What
would Jesus do?"
17 " As for these four children, God gave
them knowledge and skill in all learning
and wisdom, and Daniel had understand-
ing in all visions and dreams," Why he
should have the latter we shall see as wo
go on. In a strange laud, where the true
God was not known, they desired to make
Him known by their lives and testimony,
and God honored them by giving them
that which would most glorify Him. Wher-
ever He sees a heart willing to be wholly
His He will see to it that the heart is filled
with Himself and with His Spirit for His
service. He knows all the circumstances
in which we will ever be placed, and Ho
will not fail to meet all our need that He
may be glorified (Phil. is, 19). The first
"behold" in the Bible is in connection
with giving, and rod said, "Behold, I have
given" (Gen. i, 229).
18, 19. "Among them all was found
none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and
Azariah; therefore stood they before the
king." As they had excelled before in
body, so now they excelled in learning and
wisdom, and it was all the Lord's doing,
because they trusted in Him and desired
to glorify Hint While outwardly they
stood before the king of Babylon they
could truly say with Elijah, "The Lord
God of Israel liveth before whom I stand'
(I Kings xvii, 1), and with Paul, "God
whose I am and whom I serve" (Acts
xxvii, 23). They stood before the king of
Babylon in the name of the Lord God of
Israel, believing that therefore they were
there.
20. "Ten tines better than all the lna-
giciaus and astrologers that were in all
his realm." Thus the king of Babylon
found them upon examination, because
their wisdom was of God. The wisdom of
this world is a vain thing and wholly un-
able to understand the things of God..
That is one of the great truths taught re-
peatedly in this book, and perhaps is one
reasou why the religious wisdom of this
world in certain so called higher critics
would, if it could, set aside this book,
as well as some others. But it is written,
"Forever, 0 Lord, thy word is settled in
heaven" (Ps. oxix, 89), so that not only is
Daniel there, but his book too.
21 "And Daniel continued even unto
the first year. of King Cyrus." Thus ho
lived all through the 70 years of the cap-
tivity, and we find him also in the third
year of Cyrus and in the first year of
Darius the Mede (Dan. x, 1; xi, 1) Not
only did he live, but he continued a faith-
ful witness for God. Patient continuance
in well doing (Rom,. ii, 7) is a good evi-
dence of growth in grace. Our Lord said,
"If ye continue in my word, then are ye
My disciples indeed" (John rill, 31).
Excavation at Babylon.
German savants are busy with plans
tor the excavation of Babylon. Layard,
the discoverer of Nineveh, was the first to
really do anything in the way of excavat-
ing. The Germans are determined that
their work shall be thorough. It will be
costly and take five years. The excavators

THE SUN'S MAKE-UP
Deme Popular Notions C lag the
Earth's Orb of Light Correcteet--Fact.
About Other Greater Suns,
Hitherto an absolutely mistaken
notion seems, to have been accepted
regarding the make-up of the sun, which
has been supposed to be a homogeneous
body in density throughout. As a matter
of foot, while its material is lighter than
our own atmosphere on its surface, the
interior is very much denser than the
heaviest known substances that go to
compose the earth. In fact, the solar orb
near its center is about three times as
dense as mercury. .As for the feature of
the sun, we may suppose that for a
while, after cooling, it will become habit-
able by living forms. animal and vege-
table; but these are not likely to be de-
veloped highly or to endure for any
length of time. inasmuch as the mighty
globe will have no external source of
heat to depend upon.
Sirius, as I have said, is a bine star.
Beta, in the beak of the constellation of
the Swan, is a double sun, one of its
members being pale yellow and the other
deep blue. The fiery -reel sun of Scorpio
is linked with another one that is small
and green. These double stars are tree
cosmic twins, and occasionally triplets
appear!
Castor, in Gemini, is a pair of suns,
each of which is larger than our orb of
day, and it is believed that the greater
of the two revolves around a third gigan-
tic and invisible body,the presone
of
which is su.gested by the swaying move -
meets of the mighty luminary in ques-
tion.
Algol, the so-called Demon Star, bas
such a body revolving around it, shut-
ting of Its light so as to make it glare
and fade at alternate intervals. Imyself,
as I bane already said, have discovered a
dozen great stars that are almost blaok,
shining merely by reflected light from
neighboring suns, What worlds they
must be, to be sure, and haw strange the
forms of life whioh may be Imagined to
inhabit them!
Alcyone, 1,000 times as big as our sun,
is in the constellation Lyra, toward
which the whole of our own solar sys-
tem is moving. It may even be conceived
as possible that our sun eventually will
become a satellite of Vega's. But Arctu-
rus, the king of suns, gives 6,000 times
as much light as our sun—a statement
which becomes hnpressive when it is
considered that our solar orb would "cut
up" into 1,130,000 pieces, each one as
large as the earth on which we live. If,
by the way, the sun were a solid block
of anthracite coal, ignited in pure oxy-
gen, it would burn out in 1,760 years.
ri'be atmosphere of the sun is supposed
to be 5,000 miles deep, being composed of
various gases and vapors of metals, As
observed through h the telescope.
its sur-
face
r -
face is covered with minute white forms
apparently floating in an ocean of greyish
fluid. These are clouds, composed not of
water, but chiefly of carbon.
Just as the electrician uses carbon for
producing the brightest of artificial
lights, so the sun employs the same
agent in the manufacture of its trans-
eondant light and heat. The sun -clouds
are made up of drops of liquid carbon
which have a radiance vastly exceeding
the glow of the filament in an eleotrio
lamp.
When, as a famous astronomer says,
we remember that the entire surface of
the huge luminary is coated with these
olouds, evory particle of which is thus
intensely luminous. wo need no longer
wonder let the dazzling brightness which,
even across the awful gulf of 93,000,000
miles, produces for us the inconceivable
glory of daylight.
The greatest and most important in-
vention to bo made in the next century
will be a machine for storing the beat
of the sun and transforming it into elec-
tricity or some other form suitable for
ready employment. This heat, which is
now permitted to go to waste, will be
applied to the running of enills, the
warming of ]louses, and every other pur-
pose for which energy is utilized. It is
worth mentioning in this connection
that every square yard of the sun's sur-
face emits an amount of heat equal to
that of a blast furnace consuming one
ton of coal every ten minutes. The heat
given out by the solar globe in one second
would raise 195,000,000 cubic miles of
ice-cold water to boiling point, and of
tnis heat the earth receives only one -
2 000,000,000th part.—Prof. T. J. J. See

Useful Eloquence.
At the Oxford Assizes recently a man
was placed in the dock on the charge of
having stolen a horse.
The case for the prosecution seemed to
leave no doubt on the minds of those
present that a conviction would be sure
to follow. However. it transpired that a
very clever counsel had been engaged for
the defense, and the construction he put
upon the case, together with his eloquent
pleading, had such an effect on the jury
that they brought in a verdict of "not
guilty," and the prisoner was according-
ly acquitted. After he bad left the pre-
cincts of the court he was accosted by a
"pal" thus:
"Now, look 'ere, Bill, it's all over
now, and I should like to know the
truth. Did you really steal that beam?"
"Well," says Bill, "I don't mina tell-

Unequalled—Mr. Thos. Brant, Tyend-
inaga, Ont., writes:—"I have to thank
you for recommending Dr. Thomas'
Eclectric Oil for bleeding piles. I was
troubled with them for nearly fifteen
years, and tried almost everything I
could hear or think of. Some of them
would give me temporary relief, but none
would effect a cure. I have now been
free from the distressing complaint for
nearly eighteeu months. I hope you will
continue to recommend it."
London's record of deaths by violence

average of the preceding ten years.
