Heb, xi, 6-0ommentary Prepared by
Rev, D. M. Stearns.
The story of Elezeklah, son of Alma,
who reigned twenty-nine years In Fe.
rusalem and who did right in the sight
of the Lord, working good and right
and truth before the Lord his God
and doing it with all lite heart, so
that there was none like him among
all the kings of Judah either before
him or after him in the matter of
trusting in the Lord God of Israel (I]
Chron. xxix, 2; xxxi, 20, 21; II icings
evil', 5), occupies eleven chapters 01
Scripture (II Kings xviif-xx; II Citron.
xxix-xxxii; Isa. xxxv i-xxxix). 1'Vhen
we consider that these kings were
spoken of as sitting on the throne of
the Lord, to be kings for the Lord thele
God (I Chron. xxix, 23; II Chron. is
S), wo see more clearly the monstrous
sin of Alai and the great contrast di
his son, whose name signifies the
strength of Jebovab and which be se
well illustrated during the greater pail
of his lite. Our lesson chapter Celle
of the great passover which he kepi
for all Israel from Dan to Beersheba,
and this feast always points us in
three directions—to thenight of the
nation's birth, to Christ our passover
crucified for us and to the rebirth of
the notion in the future when they
shall be gathered from all nations and
the passover shall be fulfilled in the
kingdom of God.
Let us look a little at the rest el
his story before we take up the day's
lesson. He began his good reign be
opening the doors of the house of the
Lord, which his wicked father had
closed up, and by cleansing the temple
of its filthiness, which occupied them
sixteen days (xxix, 3-5, 3T). He set
the priests and Levttes to work with
the inspiring and enconraglug mo:di
of rnic, 11, and, baring restored to
vessels which his father had cast
away, he made atonement for al!
Israel and had the erne worship re
stored with praises and gladness and
rejoicing (xxix, 24, 30, 36). Then thea
kept the great passover, sending invi'
tations throughout all Israel and Ju.
dale urging all to turn to the Lord
God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel and
yield themselves unto the Lord (x.m
1-9).
Although some laughed the invite
tion to scorn and mocked, there .wen
those of Asher and Manasseh and
Zebulun who humbled themselves and
game to Jerusalem to keep the feast
(xxx, 10-12). They found such joy in
keeping the feast of unleavened bread
spake to the heart of all the Levites
and the priests praising the Lord da3
by day and teaching the good know',
edge of the Lord, and 17ezekiah sc
spate to the heart of all the Levites
that the whole assembly took counsel
to keep the feast seven days more
which they did with gladness, and
there was not so great joy in Jerusa,
lem since the time of Solomon. The
praise and prayer were heard in
beaven, the habitation of leis holt•
uess (x11, 21-27). The contrast be
tween this and the sin and unbelief
and rebellion of Abaz's reign helps us
to understand just a little better the
contrast between Israel's present un
belief and suffering and the time
drawing ever nearer, when they shat
obtain joy and gladness and soreots
and sighing shall flee away (Isa. xxxv,
10; 11, 1.1).
After this great passover and time
of rejoicing there followed a cleansing
of the laud res far as possible from
fdolatr'y and idols, and the brazen sop
pent which Moses had made in the
wilderness and which Israel was now
worshiping as an idol was destroyed
(xxxi, 1; I1 Sings xviif, 4). Such. a

Washington turned to Greene,
"Know you aught of this paper?"
he demanded.
"I do, you excellency!" cried Alicia
Wendell eagerly. "I saw Burr steal u

"'Twas while, sir, and folded, fasten-

"Where did you perceive this, ma-
dam?"
"Through the shutters, after the duel
the Englishman spoke of. 1 had no
idea of its contents, sir, or we would

A disgusted look showed upon the
general's face. "And that is what you
have done?"
Silence answered him, until the wo-

"That is very likely, madam, after a
ride through darkness, when the alight

under suspicious circumstances, What

WILL MAKE YOU EAT.
The sufferer from dyspepsia and in-
digestion who has to pick and choose his
food, is the most miserable of all man-
kind.
Even the little he does eat causes such
torture, and is digested so imperfectly
that it does him little good.
What dyspeptics need is not artificial
digestion but something that will pat
their stomach right so it will manufacture
its own digestive ferments.
Burdock"Blood Bitters restores the
stomach to a normal, healthy condition
so that food no longer distresses, but is
thoroughly digested and assimilated.
Miss Ella McDonald, Charlottetown,
P.E.I., writes: "I have used Burdock
Blood Bitters, and find that few medicine»
can' give such relief in dyspepera and
stomach troubles. I wait troubled for
turce years with dyspepsia and could not
