LESSO 4•••• IZRNATIONAL LESSON, NOV. 20. Tex of the Lesson, Isa. O. Golden Text, Ism. is 16, 17. Ottr lesson Is called "Isalah's Mes- sage to Judah," MIME Is WI right as to the last two words, for it is indeed a message to Judah aral not to all Israel, and it is a message to Judah awl not to the churele This is the primary truth, but ive must not forget that there are lessons here Per believers at oil times, 13ut then, we must notice that it is not Iseiah's message, but the MOS - sage of the Lord through Ills ser- vant Isaiah. "Neer, 0 beaveas, and give ear, 0 earth, for the Lord bath spoken!" (Verso 2.) This is. the truth to be emoliasieell. "The mighty God, even the Lord, bath spoken" (Ps. 1., 1). God bath spoken un- to us by His Son (1161.1. 1., 1, 2). This is the great fact of the Bible, and surely it becomes His creatures to hear. but that is the very thing they refuse to do as He says, "I have 'nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me" (verse 2). He says that the dumb brutes such as the ox and the asS have more re- gard for their owners than His peo- ple have for Him In jer, viii., 7, He .says that the bird$ seem to have More intelligence than His people, When on earth in the days of His as He wept over Jerusa- lem: Ile said, "If thou hadst known the things which belong to thy peace, but now they are hid feam thine eyes". (Lillie xix., 41, 42): "They have forsaken the Lord, they have. Prevolsed the Drily One "of Israel in- to anger, they are gone away back- ward ,(veree 4), was true of thetn 111 'the days of Isaiah and Jeremiah And also when our Lord was on'. earth, for He had to Call them hypocrites and a generation of viper's, and .fin- allY to tell them that their house Would be 'desolate till His 'return (Matt, xxiii). Om' lesson says that iodivideally and nationally they were sick - and telSound from head to foot, their country desolate and :overthrown by strangers; and that but for a very • snail remnant of godly gees in their • midst they would be like Sodum end Gomorrah. Then He ealls them Sod- om and .Gomorrah and says that He cannot tolerate their sacrifices and their feasts; that they weary HIM With them (verses 11-15). From this and similar language elsewhere in the prophets have boldly affirmed that the Loi7I never instituted sac- rifice, but. such :do not know What they say, nor • do they understand, Gen. iii., 21, the first of all sacrifices and :by the hands of the Lord Him - SCM . • When He Was on earth in human -form the feasts Of the Lord which He liad ordained had 'become Mere •feaSts of the jeWs; all :foriM and cavemcmy to be seen Of men (3datt. Vt., xxiii.; 1-8). This: sort of thing lie hates to -day as /mud/ as T -Ie, did Chen, for He 'desires worship` 'only fr,om such as Worship Him ji tjt and in *truth. So Jdati-ilt, 23, 24, may not bo for. us. to: judger, but a very little • con-, fferation will lead one to think it, possible that there may be hureli to -day a Very Shriller of affairs to that described by 'plrit through Isaiah. All we need say is that whatever in the form of worship is not from a redeemed soul n the power of the Spirit and in he name Of the Lord Jesus cannot be worship at all. The precious blood of Christ, the great Saerffille. is the only foundation, the Holy Spirit the only power and the word of God the only revelation •by Which • NVO can know God and wor- ship Him. He who would worship Gad must first be clean; hence 'Wash you; make 7ou clean" (verso 16), and how this is to be done is plainly set forth 'bah in Genesis and IteVela- tion and all the way through. Noth- ing can cleanse from sin but the blood, 4"rhe life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that waken an atone - merit for the soul" (Lev. xvii, 11). The doings of verses 16 and 17 fol- low the cleansing. There elm be no acceptable doing till we are cleans- ed, for "they that are in the flesh cannot please God" Mora. viii. 8). How, • then, is the cleansing ao. complisheda God roust do it. When will He do it? COMO, zlow; how thoroughly will Ile do it! The sins as scarlet shall be white as snow and the crimson like wool, for the blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth from a.11 sin, so that it is remembered no tnore, "1, even I, am He that, blot- teth out thy transgressions for My own sake and 'will not remember thy sins" (Isa. 25). The van- ity of all our effects to cleanse our- selves is set forth in Jer, ii, but God does it instantly and thorough- ly. Then follows the secret of all acceptable service, for where there is it redeemed soul who is willing and obedient God will work in that one both to will and to do of His good pleasure (Phil. ii. 18), and such an one can know the power and com- fort of these words, "Lord, Thou wilt ordain peace for us; for Thou also hast wrought all our works in us." "Striving according to His working, which worketh in me mightily." "Working in you that which is well pleasing in His sight" (Isa. xxvi, 12; Col. i, 26; Heb. xiii, 20, 21). All rebelling against God's will and God's way (and there is a lot of it on the part of His people) only causes sorrow to themselves and brings no glory to God, but com- pels elim to chasten them for their good. It is the privilege of every child of God to 'enjoy perfect peace and to bear much fruit 1,0 the glory of God, but it can on1;y be in • and by a willing and obedient people, for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it, and His word is for ever settled in heaven (verse 20 : Ps. xix. 89). be te The money paid ter the recovery of deserters is recovered from the of- fender's pay.

Burley Soup.—Only beef stock is required in making a first-rate bar- ley soup, if the grain is allowed to steep in it for some time before cooking.

Another inmortant consideration is that the warship 'would be it kind of dry dock for each of the boats, and thus they could have any mech- anical defects set right at once on the high sea. Needless to say, such a course is not possible with the pre- sent type of steam -propelled torpedo boat. Repots work is difficult to accomplish without returning,to part and much time is lost thereby, and the vessel is rendered non -effective for a considerable time. It has to battle unaided with every kind of weather, and those who have any knowledge of the life on board a torpedo boat during a, gale will agree that our sailors will be saved many hardships if they had torpedo boats which could be slung on board it "warship in time of stress, 11, WIRE GUN A.

Professor Dexter, of the University of Illinois, has been investigating the effects of weather upon morals, and ends that the desire to fight rises with the thermometer, but stops at 85 deg., and declines after that as the mercury rises. Assault cases are, therefore, commoner in summer than in winter, • Drunisen- rtess, however, lessens with sum- mer than in 'winter. Drunkenuess, however, lessens with summer ,and increases with the coming of cold. Suicides are at it minimum on bright days with it high barometer, , and increase as the wind rises. ALL GOOD THINGS must win upon their merits. The International Dictionary has won a greater distinction upon its merits and is in more general use than any other work of its kind in the English language, A. 1E. Sayer,.
