Like dumb and driven brutes they stood, looking with silence upon the passing of the king's son. He walked before them, men-at-arms before hint, men-at-arms behind him, and his glance never fell or faltered, At his side the lady walked, supported by his Orin; her :dlogk swept chose a- bout her; iter lips • were white, rind her eyes were black with a horrible fear, but the king's son knew no fear_,.: no, not even when the herse'of the third bridge clanged behind then; 00 even when the Inen-at-atrnss fell back in the courtyard; not even when the 111;11 with the toreh slut the jailer with the keys appeared at the postern door, The mss with the torch went first because the passage was: dark, and the water trickling on the walls had wet the floor In places, 'rhe king's son half carted. the lady, who was faint with terror.

Then the door opened luta) they all four walked within, It, was a long, low chanbber, with barrel. vaulting of greatt hewn blocks above. Four small barred windows were set so high that none might ever attain then, and besides the door of entrance there was another door, equally small and lose and heavy. The place had been made ready for their conning; clean straw was heaped in the corner, and fresh bread and water were set beside it, The king's son looked carelessly on the straw and the bread and water. Then he looked coldly on the two nen; but his eyes became otherwise when they fell on the lady leaning atanistatm t The torch -bearer and the jailer turn- ed and went out.

There are three kinds of piles—itching, bleeding and protruding. The itching, burning sensations usually in- crease at night, and the misery which many people en- dure is beyond description. The bleeding is sometimes so profuse as to cause death. Protruding piles are most dreaded because it is commonly believed that a surgical operation is the only means of cure. If you will road the letters Quoted in the daily press there 'will be little chance for scepticism as to the cer- tainty of Dr. Chase's Ointment as a euro for every form of piles. Or, better still, ask your friends about it, for Dr. Chase's Ointment is recognized among doctors and druggists as well as by the public generally as the only real cure for this wretched disease, Dr. Chase's Ointment, 60o a box, all dealers, or Edmanson, Dates & Co., Ltd., Toronto.

So little courage," he murmured fondly, "so little strength to bear a few !card weeks: Canst forget the mark of the crown in our hands so easily? How can prison walls endure for us? Take hope, sweetheart But she only trembled and hid her face yet closer to his throat. "Smile thou must," he continued; "if not for thine own self, smile thou must for me. While we bide here thou must take the place for me of hawk and hound, of helm and harrying; needs must thou smile then." He drew a little back and held her a little off, so that her wet eves and sweet, quivering mouth were discover- ed to his gaze. She looked at hint and smiled so faintly that it rippled her face like a passing shadow; then he folded her close to his heart again. Night came to the dungeon an hour b,efpre it came to the world, and dawn cane an hour hater, With the coating of the second dawn, the jailer entered and drew a line on the earth door from side to side of the place.

The king's son sat on the straw and watched the laying of the stones; the lady, lying witting his ares, watched, too, Her eyes were again black with a wild and terrible fear, "Tell Inc what ye build there," asked the king's son, ' But they answered not, "It is a avall to lie between your heart and mine," the lady wailed, "As they lay each stone I fell its weight upon my souls' The king's son kissed her mouth still. "On the hillside below," he said to the men, "there stands a tree hung thi.ck: Ye know whereof ! speak. When i walk free your hones shall hang there with the rest, an ye tell me nut what you build." 'The men worked on, but remained silent, The lady wept afresh and more bit,! terly, ' Listen," said the king' son, "He who has the power to punrgh has other power, too. Each shall be a knight in my' service and lord it/in lands of his own, an ye answer Inc.'' Then the men opened their mouths and showed him that they were muti- lated—tongueless, That night the wall rose higher; the next day it rose higher vet. it was one Hueter in width and without a door. The two on the straw watched its!s building in silence. but at night they talked until sleep overpowered then. The fourth night the wall stretched its cold strength between them, and the king's sae, standing with his face pressed hard against it, knew that she whom he had loved sobbed comfortless beyond his reach. It was the autumn then, and the winter was Jong and cold :old dark. The straw on 14 floor grew titin as the damp on the walls grew thick. He who slept or, the straw had little to cheer hint and much to bow his bray- ery. Beyond the wall be night not know, and the thou gltt was agony. Each piercing night, each dal& and gloomy day, his heart was freshly riven with anguish. Sometimes he could hear sounds in the world without, but they' were ;as naught to his ears. He ewaved ate whisper from the silence that lay sir close t l lain, The spring cone on apace, :uta made his hour; of light into days., In the still night he could divine the sound of birds in the lvortti beyond, Then summer was abroad in the land and tis turning had a sunbeam which Ira" a tett' minutes tri each pay cattle in and rested by the king's son, ile watched its glory,' ;old prayed that an- other even brighter was entering be- ! c'l'od the dividing wall, Then there was a noise—au is red- ing noise—in the hall, ,and the locks on his door were rattled and jarred nit inpalience.

Ixxxv, 10, 111, Golden Text, Ps. cxxvl, S—Corrtmera• tary Prepared by Rev, p. M. Stearns, We have' been speaking itl recent lessons of some of God's great circles in connection with the heavenly orbs of ITIS universe and the great truths o4 His word, Coming to the Psalms, in which we shallhave at least two les- sons this quarter, we find the sante thing. But in all, Scripture too Lord God of Israel, the Lord Jesus Christ, is ever the center. Ho is the perfect man of Ps. i,in contrast to the wick- ed icked one of the same Psalm, but each In- cludes those who are theirs. Ho is the one so greatly to be praised in Ps. oL Ills kingdom of Ps. ii is the sante as that of Ps. exlix. These Psalms are Israel's fivefold response to the five books of the Inw, each book corm - spending in some measure to each book or the Pentateuch. The ending or the first Lour books of realms are xli, lxxil, lxcxix, evi, and are easily noted by the double "Amen" of the first three and the "Amen, hallelujah!" of the fourth. Cbrist is no doubt in all the Psalms, as Ile Is h1 all the Scriptures, according to (lis owe. testi- mony ht Lulea xxiv, 27, 44. His suffer- ings and Itis- glory are everywhere set Forth, and the setting up of His king- dom, with Israel as tate center, at His coming in glory to judge and to reign. The present age of gathering the church from all the natlous is a mys- tery first revealed to Pahl, according to Mph. Hi, 1-0; Rom, xvi, 25-27; Col. i, 20, 27, but everywhere in all the book there aro heart messages for ov. ery individual believer, whether Jew or gentile, David and Asaph and Moses nail perhaps others whom God inspired to write the Psalms saw, as did the prophets, that future, on to the coming of the kingdom, by the holy Spirit w'ho spoke fo them and through them. They nut only foresaw the near but utso the taxon' fulfillments of the purposes of God, the restoration from Babylon and the still future restora- tion from all nations where they are still scattered. Both or the Psalms of our lesson maty easily cover both events and give ns warty a glad word for our own hearts. Understanding that the thanksgiving and rejoicing are primarily that of Israel, let us as be- lievers appropriero all we can. The nation shall be reborn suddenly and the iniquity of their land removed in one day, when they shall look upon their Messina and receive Hlm as their God at His coming in glory (Ina. xxv, 8, 9; lxvi, 5.13; 'Lech, Ill, S, 9). It is impossible to burs teal lasting joy apart from the forgiveness of sins, for untll that becomes our experience the wrath of God is still upon us )(ixxxv, 1-3; John itl, 801, 11 is the privilege of every believer to proelaim to others the forgiveness of sins through Jesus florist because of His finished work (Acts x111, 33, 30; and by John 1, 12, and 1 John it, 12, any one can sec bow to become n (Mild or God and know their ::ins roe:elven, Then enn we sing the Son;' of Israel lifter they shall have received Him and nwke even now the words or Isa, xli our very own. .11' we are out matte Mad by slide assurances as that Cie will never remember aur alae. amt tint is are even now delivered trout the a'ruih to comp Lisa, eliti, 2.1; 1 Thea, I, 1o. it mast be been 1100 we fail to believe what he says, tor joy ruin peeve come by believing Mom. as', 13). !I' the etre in ('hri:'t we, cooter pray the w•ni'ds of Ixxxv, 4-7, 1lth"nah us Christ11018 WO teed 1110'7 c•entiunnlly and sal- 1111 tal- 55 11 the wl'rI,l, the tlexlt and Ihr dct'i1, t, i.fle w'? tynit 1'.Ir the sal• yahoo to h? revealed at Ills appear..
