The king mentioned in the first verso bad reigned ilfty-two years in Jerusalem, and it is recorded of him that he did right in the sight of the Lord. He was marvelously helped till he was strong. But when he was strong his heart was lifted up to his destruction, for be transgressed against the Lord his God and died a leper (11 (hron. axe'', 3, 4, 15, 10, 21.). ire was also called Azalea'. Thus: kluge as well as all others come and go, for there is none abiding, nor hero have we any continuing city (I Chro1. xxix. i5; Hob. xiif, 14). Isaiah did what we should ail do, and always do, look up and see a king wbo never dies, and n throne that cum not be moved, of which it is written, •'Thy throne, 0 God, is forever and civet; a Scepter of righteousness is the sweeter of Thy kingdom" (Ps. xlv, a; Deb. i, 8), 1 like to read in Beek. i, ell --2S, of the throne and the glory of it and the man upon it, for ile 1s the same one whom Isaiah saw, the one of whom we have been learning for the past six months (John Mi, 41). There is no other wee, for us in this world of :flange nod ' trouble than to do as Stephen did—look up steadfastly into Ireareu and see the glory o1' (.sod and hems. ms. .\s hzelac4 saw the cherubim ;11 connection trill) the throne, so Iwileh saw the seraphim, and it may tots that they /ire the mole living. ones rci,resonting some p l.:1, m of the re- deemed as i:n;ruin; noes and es hold in Ills lined. Tile my of each Is virtually the same. "Holy, holy, holy is the Lewd of hoe::" (verse 3 and Bev. tv, 1), and nowhere chat do we find the thrice holy In a sentries. But see L's. eels, 3, u, 0. They s,'eal: of the whole earth being full of ills glory (verse 3 and Lev. v, 13), so 11 is a vision of the future, as were the cherubim in the garden or Eden. Isaiah saw the tem- ple tilled with glory. end so it was at the dedication of beth tabertiacle and temple, When Isaiah thus saw the Octet' er the Lord, the hip the Lo'r] of hosts, it caused him to see :iireself as wholly 8021880 and 00(118.2 tit rse 5). Job and Daniel were affected in the same way (Job sill, 5, f;; frau. 5, 7, 8), and we may he sure that if we have any good opinion of ourselves left we have not yet seen the 1;i0 as we might sue .13]m. See else Itotu, vii, 18, the soul cry of one who bus seen t.8e beauty of the Lord. We are not as right with Him as we might be unless we think so much of Him that we think nothing of ourselves. There is a very helpful suggestion in the face and feet covered wings or verse 2, The face indicates what we are, the feet suggest our walk or what we do, but we must not think of what we are or what we do, only of what 110 is and Tae• does (Gal. ii, 20; I Cor. xv, 10). The power to fly is in the two. wings of commit and trust of Ps. xxa-vii, 5, The altar and taking away of iniquity and sin of verses 0, 7, sug- gest the one only way by which sin cue be taken away, the sacrifice of Calvary, of which the brazen altar and its sacrifices were typical. It takes but a moment for Elim to take away our stns by virtue of His great sacrifice of Himself once for all. So shall 11 bo with Israel as a nation when they shall see Him coming in Itis glory (Zech. 111, 0, I. c.), and thea shall they be Itis messengers to all nations, a11t1 matey nations shall be joined to the Lord In that day (Zech. II, 10.12), wbether it be a nation or a man, only there ems be no service for God lentil sins erre forgiven, but when we know flits blessedness, ac- eordtng to Ps. xxxki, 1, 2, we should be gladly willing to tell other's. After the prophet knew that he was cleansed then he beard the voice of the Lord 8033115, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Note the "I" and "us," the one Lov- ing and True God and the three par- sons 'in the Godhead, and learn from Rom, vitt, 25, 81, 34, that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are each and all for every one whom they send, and they will not fail to work and to watch ever their own word, which will surely accomplish their pleasure, and the faitirfut messenger sball be unto God a sweet savior' of Christ fn them that are saved and in them that perish (II Cor. 11, 15, 10), whether hearts and ears and eyes nre closed against the message or opened to hear and see and receive it If the love of Christ tonstraine us We cannot but say, "Here am I; seed mei" And then, Whatever may be the immediate result, eve 011011 rest to this—that Ile cannot fail nor be discouraged and in His time the kingdom will surely come, It is otu's to be fulthfula Genie rtt Cetdoni Redd cR18i1gtor ock . 6 safe, relict/go a•sylt,titn p medic108, $old in three flo.

A cough is an early symptom of pneu- monia. It is at first frequent and hacking, r,nd is accotnpanied with a little tough, colorless expectoration, which soon, however, becomes more copious and of a rusty red color, the lungs be- come congested and the bronchial tube filled with phlegm making it hard for the sufferer to breathe. Males arc more com- monly attacked than females, and a previous attack seems to give a special liability to another. On the first sign of a cold or cough you should get a bottle of Dr, Wood's Nor- way Pitt Syrup and thus prevent the cold from developing into some serious lung trouble, Mrs. E. Charles, North Toronto, Ont., writes: l'Two years ago my husbaud had a very bad attack of pneumonia, and the doctors said he was gelling consumption. A friend came in to see me and told me to get Dr, Wood's Norway Pine Syrup. I got three bottles, and they seemed to quite clear his Chest of the ilsiegm, and now he is fine and well. I shall never be without it in the house as it is a very vuluable medicine.'' Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup is put up in a yellow Wrapper; three pine trees the trade mark ; price 25c. and 50e, The genuine is manufactured only by Tint T.

There, will be volunteers then just as there are now. There is really no disgrace attached to those who are affected by the system, A gang of men meet on the highway every year to put in their statute labor. They have been drafted for the purpose, but den not feel humflieted on that account, if this line Of work was carried on under the voluntary system some would be public-spirited enough to do their duty but more would shrink, There is complusion in almost everything under the sun, 120mplusion In the payment of taxes and in educa- tion, it does not naturally follow, be- cause of one or the other, that if left to tine freedom of their own wills all men would dodge their taxes or avoid the trouble and expense of keeping their children at school. The Man who serves as a Juror Or wiineiss in court does not feel laumilated in his own es- timation because he has been brought there by legal process, which he could not+afford to ignore.

NOTES OF THE WEEK The action of the Dominion Govern- ment by order -in -council in suspending betting on race tracks for the dura- tion of the war, is a step which has been well received by public opinion. For a long time there has been agi. tation for this measure by religious and public bodies throughout the coun- try, focuoai:ig in the attitude of the Liberal Putty in. the Ontario legisla- ture which tn:'.,ie it one of their main policies this lust 812551011.

It is suggested that committees of busi- ness men be appointed and assigned to certain definite problems develop- ing from each of these viewpoints, There are some interesting sug- gestions in the memorandum in con- nection with some of the subjects to be studied. Per instance, in connec- tion with the appointment of a com- mittee on credit information and the extension of banking facilities abroad it is suggested that a compar- ative arrangement might be arrived at among a number of the larger Ca- nadian banking institutions, brought about through the Canadian Bank- ers' Association, The idea is that a joint banking institution he organ- ized, under some such designation as Associated Banks of Canada, to the stock of which individual banks might subscribe. This institution would then open up places in the more attractive foreign market cen- tres. It is also suggested that a com- mittee might be appointed to draft plans toward providing special edu- cation and training for prospective commercial representatives of Cana- dian firms in friendly export mar- kets. University courses are suggest- ed, The memorandum also contains comprehnsive questions, which it is aimed to place in the hands of boards of Trade organizations and commit- tees throughout the country.
