Infallible wisdom. guided Sam- uel and Saul in their meeting, prepar- atory to kingly rule in Israel. Saul's appointment was of God, and the pur- pose of it was the deliverance of his people. Samuel found much that was geed in Saul, reverence for his father, diligence in business, modesty and humility. He was warm-hearted, dignified and sincere. He exhibited no vanity upon his elevation. His conduct gave mon Ise of a bright fu- ture. The true purpose of life was unfolded to Saul by Samuel. Every- thing was calculated to impress on Saul that his elevation to the royal dignity was not simply good fortune, but he and the people must see the hand of God in it. T. R. A. Leesoe X.

Kish, of the tribe Of Benjamin, was "a mighty man of power," and he had a son who was "a choice young man," He was a head taller than the rest of the people. If Israel desired a powerful man as king, then eurely Saul would meet their de- mands. It was o. pecaliar train of pro- vidences that brought Saul to Sam- uel's notice.

Israel's demand for a king was made in a, constitutional manner and came before Samuel with all the weight of a formal decision on the Drift of the representatives of the eation. We can Scarcely imagine the feelings of Sam- uel as he lidard their desire express- ed. The tide of popular feeling did not swerve him, but be was deeply wound- ed by Israel's evident aversion to God's time and ways. Their proceed- ings were premature and hasty and conducted without reference to the will or God. Israel's wish to have a king to lead them out to battle be- trayed a thirst for war and distrust of the Lord's power. to defend them. Decline in the theocratic belief and life was ever the one sign of weak- ness in the Hebrew commonwealth. Muchof his life -work seemed to Seth- uel to be *Wasted unless the form of government under which" he had brought the land • to prosperity con- tinued. The Jewish nation coeld not appreciate Samuel. His intense and consistent godliness was not popular kniong then, Their moral status was unworthy 01 the free government God had given them. Samuel's strong, pure character towered in magnificent stib- limity above the gale, selfish age in which he lived. When his ungrate- ful country called hint to resign: his of- fice as judge after long years of hon- orable and acceptable service, and to yield his authority to another, Sam- uel did not resent or complain, His condtict sets before es the wisdom of timely concession, the nobility of self-renunciation.

Tells mouth's ,Mon.tiell Phanmaceu- tied Journal =tains the following editorial proteatinv against tb.e Do- minion Government's plan of raising tuxes for the sale of patent medicines. The exttole Is well wortb: perusal: Two very Important meetings have just taken place in Montreal - the Wholesale Drug Association of Canada and the Proprietary Trade Associa- tion of Canada. These meetings were both held for the purpose of consider- ing the war taxes proposed, and which very seriously ,affect both the manu- facturers of meditine and perfumes and the traffic of the distributors - the wholesale druggists. A general meeting or the retail druggists has ,been called and will take place this week. A reconsideration has been asked of the Government and a depu- tation will present the views of the trades interested at an early date. The objections to the new measure, of taxation as voiced in these meet- ings with unanimity are several lit number. The tax proposed, it was shown amounted to from 15 to 40 per cent. on the usual •trede selling prices. The tax being imposed on the price of sale at retail to the public represented on that basis of calculation from 10 per cent. to 20 per cent. No other business or industry was taxed to any such extent, and many itaporta.nt lines would actually face ruin if the Meas- ure was persisted in by the Govern- ment.. Instead of yielding for the war a large amount the prohibitory nature of the tax would defeat the object sought and ruin prosperous and legitimate business enterprise in manufacturing. The Minister of Finance will be ap- proached on the basis, of asking inves- tigation in detail, it being clainied that the treatment of the manufacturers and dealers as well, in the branch af- fected, is unfair and unjust. The goods involved, it can be shown 'cannot stand any such charge, and also have al- ready been taxed for the same pur- pose In respect to all the crude mater- ial eniployed tit manufaeturing and producing same.
