xxi, 9, "There is none like that; give

David fled from his' 'Pursuers. - The
world runs very fast when it is chas-
ing a good man. 'Ite country is try-
ing to -cat .h David and to slay him.
David goe into the honse of a priest
and asks iim for a sWord or spear
with whi h to defend himself.The-
priest, no - being accustomed to use
'deadly we pons, tells Pavid that' he
cannot su ply him, but suddenly the
priest thins of an old sword that
had been parefully Wrapped up and
laid a.way±the very sword that Go-
liath formerly used—and he takes
down that sword, and while he is un-
wrapping 1he sharp, glittering, mem-
orable bla e it flashes -upon David's -
mind -th t this is .the very sword
that was used against himself when
he was in the fight witGoliath, and
David carilhardly keep is. hand off it
until the -Priest has un ound it. Da-
vid stretches out his hand toward
that old Sword and saYs, "There is -
none like that; .give it ine.ls In other
words, "I !want in my ovhe hand the
sword - which. -has been Used against •
me and a ainst the cause Of God."
So it. , : as ...given MM. Well, my
friends, •th t is not the fleet or the
last sword once used by giant - and
Philistine -niquity which is to come
into the possession of Jesus Christ
,and of his glorious church. I want,
as vell as Oted may helP me, to show
you that many a weapon which has
been used against.. the armies of God
is yet to be captured' and used on
our . side, nd I •oaly imitate David
when 1 st etch out. myl hand toward
that blade of the PhiliStine and cry,
"There a none like hat; give it
13121 remark first that ti -is is true in
-
regard to all scientifiq exploration.
You know that. the fir t discoveries -
in a.strono ny and geology and .ehro-
nology we e- used to battle Christian-
ity. Worldly .philosophy -came out
of its laboratory and out cif, its ob-
servatory and said, "Now, we will
prove by the very structure of the
earth and , by.. the.. anoveneent of the
heavenly b dies that tl e Bible is a
lie and that Christianity as we have
it among ieri is a positive imposi-
tion." : Good men trembled, The
telescope, he Leyden jars,. the elec-
tric batter ea, all in the hands . of
the Philistines. But one day Chris-
tianity{ looking ' about for some
weapon! with -which to defend itself,
happened to, see the. vety- old sword
that these , atheistic Pliilietiries had
been • using against the truth and
cried out, "There is 'none like that;
give it mei" And Copernicus and
Galilei and Kepler and Tsaac• Newton
and Hershel and 0. E. Mitchell
came- forth, .and told the world that
in their ransacking of the' earth and
heavens they had found overwhelm-
ing presence of the, God whom we
Worship, and this old Bible began to.
shake - 'itself from the Koran and
Shaster and Zenciavesta, with which
it .had been covered up and lay on
the desk of the seholar and in the
laboratory of the chemist and in the
lap of the Christian unharmed and
• unanswered, _while the tower of the
, midnight ;heavens struck a silvery.
, chime in its praise. ' , '
Worldly philosophy- said: "Matter
is eternal. , .The- world always was.
God did not make if." ' Christian
Philosophy plunges its crowbar into t
rocks . and finds that the world was
gradually made,- and if gradually
made there must have -been some
point at which the process started.
Then who' started it? And so that
objection was overcome, and . in the
first three words of the 13i1Se we find
that Moses stated a ningnificent
truth when, he said, "lel the begin-
ning.' -
Worldly philosophy said: "Your
Bible is a. most inaccurate book. All
that etory 2 in the Old Testament,
again and again told, about -the
army of the locusts—it is' preposter-
ous. There is nothing in the com-
ing of the locusts like an army. An
army. walks; -locusts fly': An army
goes in order and procession, locusts
without ord.er." "Wait-,-' said Chris-
tian philosophy, and ;n 18.0-8 - in the
southwestern part of • this country
Christian. men went out to examine
the marchof the locusts.There are
men right before Inc who must have
noticed in that very part of the
country the coining up of the locusts
like an army, and it was found that
all the newspapers unWittingly spoke .
of t hem - as - an army' . SI' hee? They
seem t o have a c 0211111all der . They
march like a host. They halt like
a host. No arrow ever , went in
straighter flight than .the - lociists
come, not even turning aside for the
wind. If the wind rises, the locusts
drop and then rise again after it
has gone down, takifig the. same line
of march, not. varying a fodt. The
old Bible is ,right every time avhen it
speaks df lochsts coming 'like in
army; worldly philosophy wrong.'
Worldly philosophy, said, "All that
story about the light 'turnedeaS clay .
to the seal' is simply an absurdity."
Old time worldly philosophy said,
"The light. comes' straight." • Chris-
tian phitoeophy says, "Wait, a little
while," and itgees on and makes e
discoveries and finds -that the atemos--
phere curves -and bends 1 he rayof
light around the earth, , literally "as
the clay to the seal." .The 'Bible

wrong - again. . "Ah. says worldly
philosophy, "all that allusion n .
Job about the fotiedations. of •
earth is simply an -absurdity. 'Whife.
wast thou,' <--• says Cod, 'when 1 s t
the foundations of the earth?' rrjje
earth has no foundation." Christain
philosophy collies and finds that the
word as translated "foundations".
may be better translated "sockets,"
So now see how it :will read if it is
translated right, "Where wast thou /
when I set the sockets of the earth?"

Literally emith means smiter—i. e., one
who smites or hen:liners. And in old
days when every bit of metal, copper,
, 1 iron, silver, gold or brass, had to be
pounded and hamtnered by mighty
strokes into armor, tools, plate, utensils
1 end implements, there was need of
many stuithers. These smithers, or
smiths, were not men of brawn alone;
they had to possess the• ready brain and
skill to sharpen alike an implement, re-
- pair an armor or shoe a horse. Theirs
was an honest and lucrative trade, and
every road, street, and hamlet had its
smiths. Not only were there many
• smiths, but different branches of smith-
ery abounded, and thus -numerous com-
pounds and derivations of Smith came
into existence. Among these are Smith-
er, Smithkins, Smithson, Arrasmith, Ar-

Strangest of all these perhaps is, Few -
smith. Sometimes, to distinguish several
Smiths in one street or hamlet, =a Chris-
tian name was incorporated with the
usual name. Thus came Into usage
Smithpeer, Hillsmith, Helensmitle and
Aaronsmith.
Incidentally it may- be mentioned that
other languages have their Smiths. Ger-
mans have numberless Schmitz and
Schmidtz, the French have Le Fevres,
the Spaniards Gunsulus, the Russian
Smithtowskies and the Irish have Gavan
and Gowan, each meaning Smith, and
McGavan and McGowan, meaning the
son of a smith.

ousa d years ago the Hebrew,

tines. Then ar se perhaps the strangest
hardship ver i posed upon a subject na-
tion by a onqu ring one. The Scripturea
themselve tell he story in these graphic
words:
"Now here was no smith found
throughou all he land of Israel, for the
Philistine said, Lest the Hebrews make
them swotds or spears; but all the Israel -
item went do to the Philistines to
sharpen e ery «an his coulter, and his

Thus th Beb ews were obliged to trav-
el from 10 to '00 miles to find a smith,
a hardshi that is quite inconceivable to-
day, whe th country swarms with
them. If there had never been any ar-

queer Trees at Niagara.
Persons visiting Niagara falls in sum-
mer often have their attention attracted
to the queer shapes' taken on by the
trees which grow immediately around the
great cataract. A trio of sturdy old
trunks which must be &Vary bit of 50
eears old, and yet are graced with a tuft
of foliage which seems to belong to a sap-
ling of a few summers, stand near -the
American falls.
A visit to the falls in winter will ex-
plain the reason for the grotesque ap-
pearence of the trees. The mist thrown
UI) by the falling water settles on tho
trees in such quantities that they often
assume the appearance of icebergs strand-
ed high a ad dry on the banks. As the
weight of the lee increases the weaker
boughs break away under the burden,
and 'after a very cold season the tree
einerget.4 from its plating of ice shorn en-
tirely of its branches. .The trunk alone
stands, and when touched by spring's
warm breath it shoots out into a very
close and compact bunch of leaves, whieh
looks ridiculous on the top of such a
neavy piece of timber.

"TIere is a storyof a little girl, the
daughter of a loyal phyeician of credit
and re 110 W11," says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. "She is a le iets child of 0 and
has been much petted a her admiring -
friends. Perhaps this has spoiled her a
little, but she is so sweet and entertain:
ing that visitors can't keep their. hands
off her.
"One of these vieltora a new neighbor,
made a call on the little maid's mother,
and it wasn't but a few moments before
the little maid was on her lap.
"In the chatter which followed the
woman made some allusion to the' little
one's grandmother.
" 'Why, didn't you know?' cried the
child. .
"'Know what, dear?' said the visitor:
"'Why,' answered the child, 'grandma
is dead, and grandpa is dead, and Aunt
Jane is dead, and most all of papa's pa-
tients are dead tool' "
Philanthropy.
"How You must enjoy being a philana
thropistl" said the sprightly young wom-
an.
"I don't quite understand you," replied
the man of earnest manners.
"It must be such a pleasure to feel
that you have plenty of money and can
always be doing good."
"Yes; but the only difficulty is that one
can't always be sure whether he is doing
good or being done good."
Standing In Rim Own Light.
"I'll never give you up, MisiPerkina--
never."
"That's it, Mr. Hopkins; I'd be afraid
to marry such a determined, obstinate
man as you are."
