deeply impressed with his responsi-

keep a careful watch on his prison-

Was Troubled With
Nervous Prostration.
Many people although they know. of
nervous prostration do not know what
the symptoms are. The principal ones
are, a feeling of fright when in crowded
places, a dread of being alone, fear of
being itt a confined place, a horror of
society, a dread of things failing from
above, fright at travelling on railroad
trains, and disturbed and restless, un-

dreams.

ONE OF AIRMAN'S DANGERS

British Aviators Do Not Cluroge

Near %whine.
In the course of a recent talk
about aviation in the war, with a
eorrespondent, an officer of the,
British Flying Corps, now home on
"short leave," referred to -the dif-
ficulties and hardships that airmen
have to overcome. Some idea • of
the disoomforb endured from cold
ait this time of ,the year, despite
leather clothes and woollen hel-
mets, he remarked, may be gather-
ed tram the fact that if the, air '8

scene in whieh each small road and
cart track resembles another.
- The Uses of the nicroplaue
may be divided roughly under four
heads: The strategical reconnais-
sance, the tactical reconnaissance,
the directing" of artillery and the
dropping of bombs on the army.
The strategical reconnaissance
has for its object a complete survey
over and beyond the enemy's lines
'to remark any movement of troops
or guns that is taking place and to
note railway trains and supply col-
umns and many other details of in-
estimable value' to the general staff.
The tactiead reconnaissance cov-
ers a smaller area,, and in greater
detail. The exact position of
enemy trenches and guns . is noted
and marked on the map for the in-
Tormation of•' both infantry and ar-
tillery..
The direction of artillery fire is,
perhaps, the most interesting of
any task allotted to the airmen.
The aviators, having made arrange-
ments with ehe eommander of &bat-
tery, rise to a considerable' height,
from which they can observe. the
burst of the shells o.ntlie enemy's
Positions. ,,They glen signal cor-

the British guns by means of firing
colored lights. Extremely suecess-
ful results have been obtained by
this co-operation of gun and aero-
plane.
Bomeb dropping- is a duty that
sometimes falls to the members of
the flying corps, but obviously it is
only now and again that they can
obtaia a, euitable target. The ac-
curate drouning of bombs into a
trench or on other small objects is
quite impossible'.
When the machine has "got its
height" it crosses the enemy's lines
and, at once becomes the target for
furious gun and rifle fire. The Ger-
mans ,possees a great number of
anti-aircraft guns firing shrapnel
shell.
The "Archibald" Gun.
It is these guns that have 'been
named "Archibald" by the Royal
Flying Corps. "Archibald" is very
energetic and often fires as many
as fifty or sixty shells ad an aero -
please on one reconnaissance. Ow-
ing to the noise of the engine, the
airmen, perhaps luckily for them,
cannot hear the whistle of the shell
as it comes toward there. They are,
however, fully. avsare of "Archi-
bald," for again and again above
the roar of the motot comes the
,
wiokedIteissea.dithe shrapnel bullets
atter the shell has burst as they
shoot past the machine'missing it
by a few .feet or even by inches,
Frequently a bullet or a piece of
shell will tear a hole in one of the
planes. The airmen, however, pay
but little attention. The observer
goes on taking notes, and now and
again the pilot looks around to see
exadtly where ‘`Archibald" . is
bursting.
Should th ahTL came unpleas-
antly close for live or six times in

At the feast of the tabernacle the
high priest used to draw water from
the fountain of Siloam in a golden
vessel and pour it over the sacri-
fices, The feast of the tabernacle
lasted. from the. fifteenth to tlee
ttiienty-second of the month of
Tisri, The name "water -gate,"
given to one'of the gates of Jerusa-
lem, is supposed. to have been
aamed from this custom,' In 2 Sam.
23. 16 we find David pouring out
water to the Lord; although he was
famishing he would not drink the
water. Fasting was enjoined on
the day of atonement, according to
the law of Moses. ,The day of atone-
ment was on the tenth ef the Month
of Tisri. . That Samuel should have
observed these two feasts as pre-
paratory to his intercession with
Jehovah is indicative of his deep
concern over the seriousness of the
situation. ••
7. The lords of the Philistines
went up against Israel. -This means
that the whole strength of the Phil-
istines was called upon,just as
kings and emperors to -day will go
to the front in order to encourage
their soldiers, so the lords of the
Philistines thought it necessary to
be in the midst of the battle in order
that the full fightingestrength and
determination of the soldiers could
be secured. •
8, The children of Israel said to
Samuel, Cease not to cry unto Je-
hovah our God for us, that he -will
save us out'af the hand of the Phil-
istines. -The Israelites' fear of the
Philistines was increaskl when they,
89AV that the lords of the Philis-
tines were taking part in the battle.
9. Samuel took a sucking lamb. -
The very beet offering was for the
intercesecery pra,yer. As to the, law
of leap -It -offerings, see Lev. 1. 10-13,
• 10. But Jehovah thundered with
a great thun,clpr on that day. --In-
stances of thunder, rain, hail,
thick fog, and other natural phe-
nomena are frequently recorded in
history. Because of such an event,
,„victory has rested with one or the
other side.
11. Beth -car. -This piece was on a
hill close to the Philistine territory,
which would indicate that the Phil-
istones were driven back into their
own land.
12. Samuel took a ttone, and set
it between Mizpah and Shen-lelii-

Jerusalem is only five miles further

philistines were subdued,
and they came no more within the
border of Israel. -As Canaan was
subdued by Israel (see judg. 4. 23,
24).
The hand of Jehovah was against
the Philistines all the days of _Sam-
uel. -"All the days" means all the
days of his government, as Samuel' s
power ceased when Saul became
king. ' • ,
14. Ilhe cities which the Philis-
tines had taken from Israel were.
restored .to Israel. -Samuel con-
quered the Philistines mit .cinly itt
driving them from the borders of
Israel,. but by earrying the war into
their owe country and taking from
the Philistines the ,cities which had
been taken by them from Israel.
There was peace between Israel
and the Antorites.--The Israelites
and the Amorites made' common
cause against the Philistines...
15, Judged Israel all the days of
