Text, Isa. 8. 11.
Verse I. When I would heal Is-
rael -Jehovah in mneley was willing
to forgive Israel, but his generous
purpose was fruetrated by the i'n
creat"ing iniquity of Ephraim, es the
northern nation is frequently
called, and the wickedness of Sa-
maria, the national capital. Israel
took advantage of Jehovah's icing -
suffering and kindness, interpret-
ing these as an indication of weak-
ness or disregard for the nation's
iniquity. Isaiah (28. 1) points to
drunkenness as one of Ephraim's
greatest transgressions.
Commit falsehood -Are guilty of
fraud and deceit.
The thief . . the troop of rob-
bers --Theft and robbery were com-
mon.
2, 1 remember -Despite his long-
suffering Jehovah will remember
and punish wickedness.
Beset them about -Their wrongs
constitute an impediment to them
on every side.
3. Make the king glad -The wick-
ed practices of the people have the
royal approval. The king and
princes together delight in deprav-
ity and crime.
4. All adulterers -King, princes,
and people alike.
As an oven heated -They are
consumed by their own passions.
He ceaseth-The clause introduc-
ed by these words describes the
calm between one outbreak of vio-
lence and tho next,
5. The day of our king -Sonne re-
cent national event or celebration
is referred to. We are to think
possibly of the king's coronation
day or of his birthday.
Stretched out his hand with scof-
fers -Joined in their sacrilege.
6. Made ready their heart -
Strengthened their determination
to do wrong by further carousing
and the use of stimulants until
their passion for destruction is as
a flaming fire.
7. Devour their judges -The ref-
erence of this verse is to the mur-
der of public officials and the as-
sassination of kings, practices which
had become all too common.
8. Ephraim -In the sense of Is-
rael as elsewhere.
Mixeth himself -By intermarri-
age and political alliances of every
sort.
Among the peoples -With neigh-
boring nations.
A cake not turned -Which burns
on the bottom while remaining
wholly unbaked on top. The figure
used may cover either the thought
of ruin or of folly and inconsist-
ency, or it may combine with both
these thoughts the conception of a
natiou half cultured, a society
which has developed disproportion-
ately, a religion half lived, and a
political policy that is vacillating
and half-hearted.
9. Strangers have devoured his.

strength -Foreign alliances and the
adoption of foreign habits and ccs,
toms have weakened instead of
strengthened the nation. To the
ruinous effect of these practices the
people are utterly blind. Like a
person who grows old without rea-
lizing the fact, the waning of the
nation's strength is not perceived.
10. The pride of Israel -Its vain
conceit and self -imagined excel-
lency. These bear damaging testi-
mony to Israel's apostasy.
I1. Like a silly dove -The nation's
foreign policy of seeking alliances'
with Egypt •and Assyria' was with-
out wit• or wisdom. Such policy
moreover, was contrary to the ex-
pressed will of Jehovah, who, eon -
sequently, will make if of no ef-
fect.

ign alliances shall prove an en-

clamation of sorrow and distress is
linked with the thought of folly and
'ignorance, the threat of destruc-
tion with that of traliegression and
wrong,
Spoken lies against me -Instead
of praise and thanksgiving, Jehovah
]las received falsehood and slander
at the hands of his people. The ref-
erence is probably to the complaint
against Jehovah for his lack of pro-
tection against the ills which the
people have imposed upon them-
selves by their actions.
14. Not cried unto me -Religious
observances have entirely ceased.
Howl upon their beds -In de-
spair and distress they cry out in
anguish instead of calling upon Je-
hovah for help.
15. Taught and strengthened
their arms -Such skill and strength
as the nation possesses are duce to
the instruction and help received
from Jehovah. This gift of Jeho-
vah's the ungrateful people use in
devising mischief against their di-
vine benefactor.
16. Like a deceitful bow -.--Like a
weapon that is not true or reliable.
Their princes shall fall -The judg-
ment of foreign invasion is immin-
ent.
This -The fall of the princes.
Their derision in the land of
Egypt -Their conquerors shall de-

placed confidence and foolish alli-
ances.

THE BRITISH ARMY.
A Frenchman Thinks Highly of the
Infantry and Artillery.
A writer in the Excelsior, of Par-
is, who was present at the British
Army manoeuvres. writes as 'fol-
lows :-';The infantry is perfect and
well trained, and the soldiers show
constant good spirits and astonish-
ing good vigor. ` The artillery is
splendidly horsed, but my attention
was particularly attracted by •the
cavalry. I Dan affirm that, should
the necessity arise, the British cav-
alrymen would show themselves the
worthy rivals of their sires, who
earned for the/me/yes such brilliant
fame on the fields' of Waterloo and
Balaclava. This is particularly in-
teresting for us Frenchmen. The
Excelsior justly pointed out a
month ago that the landing of a Bri-
tish army on the Continent would
prove but a slender assistance to
us. What are, after all, I60,000 men
by the side of the three millions at
least which' the two belligerents
would put into the field? But what.
fiat•not been pointed out sufficiently
is the interest whieh we should have
in seeing the British cavalry.disem-
barked. as soon as possible. Ger-
many- has 30 regiments of cavalry
more than France. The British
cavalry would therefore restore the
balance,"
Turning to the high command the
French critic was les fat erahle,
"That," he said,•"nuneals tit -mo to
be the British Army '+. •^^'' point,
andit is passing through the same
phase as ours. We also showed at
the start many hesitations in our
army corps manoeuvres, and after
that in our army manoeuvres. The
British are doing the same. They
are now only jest beginning to tack-
le, the tactics of opposing armies;
anti perfection cannot be obtained
straightaway. Bet what mast be
borne in mind is that hand wank is
being done across' the Channel, and
that the utmost is being' 'got out of
s weapon that is difficult to handle.
The troops are well equipped, the
armament is excellent, and the ser-
vices carefully organised. The Pri-
bish army is by no means a negligi-
ble quantity."

INSPIRATION FOR SEkVtGE
Faith Will Remove Many Obstacles, Evep Suppcs-
edly Insuperable Mountains.
•
Faith is a favorite word with
Jesus. He used it a good deal, and
He not only used the word, but. ,He
possessed an immense amount of it.
His power came largely through His
faith. Ho believed in himself thor-
oughly and in His Father absolute-
ly. He never hesitates, he never
doubts; His faith is supreme and
sublime. '
Humanity is weak on account of
the lack of faith,' Jesus complained
of the lack of faith in His disciples;
He could and would' complain of the
same lack in His Church . to -day.
His followers in general lack faith.
They are weak-kneed on account of
the lack of faith. What might"hot
be accomplished if the men and wo-
men in the churches only had some
of the Master's faith!, You would
no longer hear expressions so often
heard like this one, "You cannot do
this or that," or "You cannot re-
move this or that evil, and so cover
it up."
That is the saying of the doubter,
of the pagan,
Not of the Real Christian.
True Christianity is all conquering,
it knows no "I cannot" or "You
cannot." The effects of faith are
wonderful, stupendous, The man
or woman of real faith is practical-
ly omnipotent.
Real success is doing things
against odds and difficulties, and
the greater the obstacles overcome
the greater the success.
The Church as a whole, I say, is
weak to -day on account of the.lack
of faith. It may sing :--
"Faith,
-"Faith, faith is the victory,
O glorious victory, that overcomes
the world."
but it really does not know what an
all conquering, overcoming faith Is.
It knows it only by hearsay.
Dorset make faith eomething mys-
terious: It is not. It is simply be-
lief in yourself, in your work, in
God's work, in Ohrist's purpose to
establish the Kingdom of God on
earth, in Ohrist and in God home
self, Our strength is 16 proper -
tion to our faith. To the true and
complete faith nothing is ianpoy-
sible, because it reflects the ale
mightiness of God. The power of
faith simply cannot be measured,
but there are many "religious'
people who do not realise tide,
They may have much "religion,''•
but no faith. They may Mato
Much Creed, But Ns Faith.
They do not really ead a reively
trust God.
When there fa no sap in the tree
the leaves and branches and twigs
must wither. Faith is the. cap in
human activity.
• The great question wits as all is
not, How many things do we be-
lieve ? but, How firm and how much
faith have we? How mush belief
in ourselves, our work, God's
work, our leader, Christ, and our
Gad?
Faith is the great inspiration for
service. The man or woman of faith
is the man or woman of action. Ho
or she has within a fountain of en -
orgy. Have we thie living, real
faith? If we haven't, let ns by alt
means get it and get it quickly.. It
will enable us as individuals and as
a church to do great things, things
that cannot be accomplished with-
out it.
God help us all to acquire this
faith and be real followers of the
Jesuswho was full of such faith
and who ever rebuked those who
lacked this great source of power
in accomplishing grand results. -
Rev. William Milton Hess
RESULT OF MOTOR 1VRECR.
Death of Prince Restored His Fam-
ily to Hereditary Rights.
Curiously enough, the recent
death of a German prince in an
automobile accident seems likely to
lead to the restoration of his family
to hereditary rights of which it has
long been deprived. It is an addi-
tionally interesting fact that if the
principle of male succession only
had obtained in England, as it does
in many European countries, the
dead prince would have been the
heir apparent to the throne of the
British Empire.
When the King of Denmark died
last May, his nephew, Prince
George, eldest son of the Duke of
Cumberland, left his father's home
in Gmunden, Austria, in his own
automobile, to attend the funeral
in Copenhagen. He was accom-
panied by a servant and a machin-
ist. Near Friesack, on the Berlin -
Hamburg road, the prince lost con-
trol of the car, and it ran into a
tree, The occupants were thrown
out, the servant broke his neck and
the prince crushed his skull. A
funeral service was held in the vil-
lage church at Nackel the next af-
ternoon, at which two sons of the
German Emperor were present.
Ten days later, Prince Ernest,
brother of Prince George, and now
heir to the Duke of Cumberland,
called on the Kaiser, and thanked
him for his kindness at the time of
Ms brother's death. This is the
first interchange of friendly rely -
tions between the royal houses of
Prussia and Hanover since Prussia
absorbed Hanover, in 1866.
The title of the Duke 'of Cumber-
land to the throne of Hanover goes
back to George P., who was Elec-
tor of Hanover when he became the
King of Great Britain in 1714. Tho
Georges.continued to rule Hanover
by a regent, or statthalter. In 1814
the European powers allowed the
Elector of Hanover to call himself
king, George IV. and William IV.
•were, therefore, kings of Hanover
as well as of the United Kingdom.
When William died without an
heir, his niece, Victoria, succeeded
to the British throne, but the Salic
law prevailed in Hanover, and no'.
woman might rule over the little
German .state. So the Duke of
Cumberland, Victoria's 'uncle, be-
came King of Hanover, and the
crowns of'Ifenover and Great Bri-
tarn were separated, after having
1,e ve-1•• o t, r,. ache hundred and,
Affairs went smoothly for the new
king and his successor until the
struggle between Prussia and Au-
stria for leadership among the Gee
man states grew acute. Hanover-
sided
anoversided with Austria, in spite of the
request of Prussia that it remain
neutral. A Prussian army invaded
Hanover, expelled .the king, and se-
questrated his. property,
When William, Duke of 'Brune -
wick, died in 1884, without - chil-
dren, the Duke of Cumberland, as
Ins nearest heir, succeeded to his
titles and estates, But the influ-
ence of Prussia was strong enough
to prevent him from reigning in
Brunswick.. ' For the last; twenty-
seven years Brunswick Imo been
ruled by a regent.
The present Duke of Cumberland
promised some time ago to respect
the German constitution, but as he
did not promise to renounce his
claim to Hanover, Prussia remained
implacable. However, the income
from the family estates in Han-
over is now being turned over to.
the Cumberland family,
The courtesy of the Kaiser, on the
death of Prince George, and its ac-
knowledgment by the and
to the
Duke of Cumberland, marks an-
other stage in the reconciliation. In
a few months, or years, it is likely
that a descendant of that George
III., against whom his American
colonies rebelled, will be ruling
over that Brunswick, ono of whose
dukes leased his soldiers to King
George to assist in putting dawn
the American revolt.
General Booth's Walking Wok.
The walking stick of General.
Booth used on the last walk he ever
took has a little history of lbs own.
At a meeting in Paris some time
ago a notorious Russian anarchist
VMS converted by the General's elo-
quence, and scion after the latter's
return to England he received from
his convert a piece of etring, with
the request that a knot :eight be
tied in it to show the length of the
walking stick the General usually
carried. The string was lcntsbted as
oordingly and returned to Paris
and a little later this stick mowed
