"But broken pitchers bearing light -
Yet Gideon's host triumphant sang;'
And through the stillness of the camp
Their shouts of victory rang.
"A shipwreck, and but broken spars,
All tossed upon an angry main;
Yet one of them enabled Paul
Melitas' coast to gain.
"A broken body on the cross,
A wound. whence blood and water
flow;
That every fettered child of sin
Might full deliverance know.
"And in that feast of memory
The broken bread, the poured, out
wine,
In silent manner speak to us
About the l ve divine.
"How dear to God are broken things,
What power in his hand they gain.;
Then trust him with your shattered

And bodies•,eked � pain."

Lesson Title -Gideon and the Three
Hundred..
Lesson Passage -Judges 7:1-25.^
Golden Text-Eph. 6:1o. !'
In the preceding chapter we read
that Israel did evil in the sight of the
Lord and he delivered them into the.
hand of Midian. They came upon.
them in such numbers that. sinful
Israel had not spirit enough to resist
and took refuge in dens and caves.
For seven years, year after year, did
the Midianites, as bands of robbers
make inroads upon the country,car-
rying off coin, sheep and oxen, until
at last in despair of succor from Baal
Israel cried unto the Lord. Then the
Lord sent a prophet who reminded
them of the great things God had
done for them in the past, and told
them these present calamities` had
fallen upon them because they had
not obeyed God's voice. We are not
told what effect the preaching of this
prophet had upon the people but im-
mediately after we have the calling
of Gideon to take upon himself the
command of their forces against the
Midianites, ' An angel appeared to
him when he was busy threshing
corn and said to hiin: "Thy Lord
is with thee, thou mighty man of
valor; go in this thy might, and
thou shalt save Israel from the hands
of the Midianites! have not I sent
thee?" In today's lesson we have.
the carrying out of that great com-
mission. We are told that the spirit
of the Lord carne upon Gideon and
he sent messengers throughout the
country and the people flocked to his
command, conning ; even from the
more distanttribes whose land as yet
had not been devastated by the foe,
until his army numbered thirty-two
thousand. Now, being sure of .God's I
presence with him, Gideon lost no)
time in setting his army in., the best I
possible position. He pitched near
a famous well, that there might be no
lack of water for his troops, and up-
'on high ground overlooking the en.

erny in the valley. But before any
attack was made he again heard the
voice of the Lord saying that the
army was too strong, even though
small in comparison to that of the
enemy. God would leave them no
chance for boasting afterwards, -so
'he reduced their. numbers by two
tests. He ordered ,Gideon to pro-
claim in the ears of the people 'say-
ing, Whosoever is fearful and afraid
let him' return and depart from Mount
Gilead . This reduced the army to
ten thousand.
He again said to Gideon the people
are yet too many, bring them down,
unto. the water, and I will • try them
for thee there. It is still the -custom
in that land for the natives to use -
both modes of drinking described here
Some go down on their knees, and;,
',bending forward, put their lips to
'the water; others merely stoop and,
lap up a few. handfuls. Those that
1 did the latter -in Gideon's army were
but three hundred and God said un-
to Gideon, By the three hundred men
that lapped will I save you, and de
!liver the Midianites into thine hand.
All the rest went back to their tents.,
He must go forward and fight' by
faith or not at all.
In the night time the. Lot•d again
spake to Gideon telling him to take
one man and go down into the camp
' of the enemy and spy out the sifu-
ation. The sight was appalling, for
the men lay along in, the valleyas
grasshoppers for multitude and. the
camels 'were without number. It.
was, however, not what he saw 'nit`
what he heard that heartened him.
Heoverheard two soldiers talking.

Gideon recognized. the, hand of God

z ruhim to that. spot, and he
worshipped and, them, set off to his
own men and called.them into action.
He made them take harmless 'imple-
ments in their hands, -trumpets and
pitchers with lamps inside. He then
instructed them to watch and do as
he did. That mighty; host, that had
at different tunes for seven years ter-
rorized the Israelites was now to be
routed and. ruined by, terror. Gideon
divided his company hit° three sec-
