"The 'voice of one. saying, Cry." -- That 14, "Proclaim." This is a celes- itial voice, the voice of an angel, per- haps the voice of the Lord hliniselt, "And one said,' What shall I cry?"— This q testion is perhaps Isaiah's; it Golden Text.—As one whom his Mo- ther ther cortforteth; so will I' Comfort you:=Isa: 66; 13. THE LESSON IN. ITS SETTING. .1 ime'.-About B.C. '700; those• who ascribe this chapter to "the second Isaiah" date it between 13.C. 550 and B.C. 500, 1?lace,—Accorcliril to common be- lief, this chapter was written.in. Jen*: Salem; according, to the belief of iiiany modern critics, in Babylonia. PARDON AND HAPPINESS. "Comfort, ye,' comfort ye my peo- ple, saith God."—Nothing is more characteristic of Gad than a counsel of comfort. God would not only have us His living people, His pre- served people, but He would have us. be His happy people too. He will not only give them bread, but He will give them honey too. "Speak ye comfortably to Jerusa- lt m." -Those who believe this cha ter written during the exile are forced to regard "Jerusalem" here as "an ideal representation of the people, but surely the simple, unforced in- terpretation would regard the pro- phet to be speaking of the populace of an inhabitated city. "And cry un- to her, that her warfare is accomplish- ed." --"Warfare" primarily means the. term of military service; then it came to mean, as here, a period of hardship, such, as Jerusalem was pass- ing through in the time of Isaiah. "That her iniquity is pardoned, that she bathreceived of ,Jehovah's hand double for all her sins."—"lt was the ordinary rule under the Law that `fur all manner of trespass' a man con- demned by the Nudges should pay double," SERVICE AND HAPPINESS. "The voice of one that crieth."- The voice of some' celestialbeing, the herald of the almighty. "Prepare ye in the wilderness the tvay of Jeho- vah." -"The wilderness" is the wild region, unsettled places lacking a highway. God is coming to visit His people, the King 'of Kings is return- ing to His throne in Jerusalem, pre- pare His way :for Him! "Make level. in the desert a highway for our God." —The world is full of places which are not ready for , God. Worldliness i is rampant, .sin is. Mountain high, in- justice is a wide morass, social con- ditions and individual hearts need to be reformed. "Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the uneven shall be glade level, and the rough places a plain," —The mountains of Bourbon mon- archy are brought low. The valleys of: common humanity are exalted. Napoleon, masses straight' in the des- ert a highway, not for God immed iaiely, \but .for the common people, ! God's favorite~ This is sttpern ttura]- ism, and the Hebrew prophets saw it from afar. " "And the glory of Jehovah shall be revealed'—'Che Lord's "glory' is His visible presence, manifested usually by fire or a dazzling light:' "And all flesh shall see it together."—"All flesh is all nnanl ind; Isaiah rise' above the typical Jewish exclusive- ness and reaches forward toward the universality of Christianity; "For the month of Jehovah hath spoken it."— 'Thereforc`it is fixed, unalterable,, de- termined and sure, This majestic "ea.- pression if ;found only in Isaiah, and is, 'found in all parts of the !look.

DAVEY'S STORE WROXETER. is so understood by the Greek and Latin translations;which have "and I said." Then follows the first voice again, telling the prophet what he is to proclaim: "All flesh is grass,. and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower in the field."—All mankind are perishing, the prophet is bidden. to remind the people. Nothing 'en- dures. The beauty; strength, wisdom >rass of nnetn are as transitory as the t> , "which to -day is, and on the morrow is cast into the oven." We all' do fade as a flower." No argument is needed to prove this; any .tliouglitful child. has observed it, And nations perish as well as individuals; the mightiest empires now sleep beneath the (hist of time. "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth, because the breath of Jeho- vah blo\weth upon it."—Man dies, but his life on earth is only for. the for- mation of the eternal life; andii all its fair and precious things that are passing away from. it, as it passes away itself, are but the withering, of the petals around the fruit that is set- ting and ripening for immortality, "Surely the people is grass."—Th;.; Spirit of God, like the wind, gaunt pass over the field of our souls, and cause otir beauty to be as a fading flower. He Must so convince 'us of sib, and so reveal ourselves to our - Selves, that we shall see that thee, :flesh profiteth nothing. "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth; but the word of our God shall stand forever."— Here is the Christian's permanence and assur- ance: he rests secure in the word of God. And by the word we mean the Word, the recorded word,' the Bible, That Book, •the Word of our God, shall stand forever. Through what fire and water and blood it has pass ed!` No other book has ever been so hated by bad men, and so abused by good men. It has been' put under the ban of eXcommunication, has been 'criticized and ridiculed and burnt. GOD AND HAPPINESS. . "0 thou that tellest good tidings to Zion."—Zion is Jerusalem, and the good tidings are the news of the coin- ing Lord. The herald of the good tidings is the prophet Himself, who is hearing the command of the heav- enly voice. "Get thee up on a high mountain. —So as 'to see the approa- ching Sovereign as early as possible; and so that the shout of. His coming May carry as far as possible: "0 thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusa- lem, lift up thy voice with strength." —Speak out boldly and' loudly, so that all may'. hear --a good ward for all public speakers. "Lift it up, be not afraid,"—Some may ridicule you or threaten you, but fear them riot, for you are in the service of the King. "Say unto the cities of Judah, Behold, your God."— Commentators who teach that this prophecy was written during the exile are discreet- ly silent with reference to the "cities of Judah." `:Has the city a special need of this message', `Behold your God'? Can the thought of God save New York, and London, Paris and Chicago, Peking and San Francisco? 'rhe vision of Patel saved many a city of Asia Minor. The vision of Luther saved :Etirope, The vision of Wesley saved England. AndChrist was the• centre of` that saving vision. Each off.us 'can help to build the city in righteousness by practising the gos- pel of Goa incarnate," "Behold, the Lord Jehovah. will Come as a mighty one," -"'Che Lord Jehovah" is another phrase charac- teristic of Isaiah, and found in both portions of his Book God's power is mentioned' before His graciousncs;;, because irf. the desperate citen nt stances of the Jews:they needed d: fence against :their enenricsl first of ait "And his arm will rule .for him," --Thus God's face; His name, and His hand are taken apart from 1 -lis entire Manifestation as embodying .Elis' personality itt varying respect;.

Express which left Montreal at 6.15 p.ni: on March 22nd. The Express roared into St. Felic- ien at 7.30 the next morning and the big '746 pound range in its crate was swiftly transferred to a seaplane that lay waiting for its precious cargo. Two hours later the seaplane with 'the much expected range landed on a lake near the aline, 350 miles north of Si. Felicien.. It was promptly un- loaded from the plane, set up in the cook -house, and the hungry mining crew had their noonday meal cooked on this range!
