'Instead he prayed to God: "Haar, otne God; for we ere despised, at turn their reproach upon their own, head, ad give them for a prey in the land of eapeivity." Nehemiah was as David when his enemiessought to do him harm. He said: "But I as a deaf num, heard not; for in thee, 0 Lord, do hope; thou wilt hear 0 Lord my God." (Ps. 38:18-15). "So built we the wall, and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof; for all the people had a mind to work." The enemies watched the work and when they saw that it progressed they compered to go forward and put a stop to it. This had its effect on the workers but Nehemiah encourag- ed himself and them by his trust in God; "Remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your eons and your daugh- ters, your wives, and your houses." Thus they came to realize that all they held dear was at stake and it roused them to return to their work and do valiantly. Nehemiah not only prayed, but planned. "From that time forth, half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of them held both the spears, the shields and the bows." Most likely he arranged an exchange between workers and watchers at regular hours and thus they which 'builded on the wall, and they that bore burdens were equally em- ployed in both, for verse seventeen cannot be understood literally, for the work would require the use of both hands. Nehemiah had a trumpeter always by his side and thus an alarm could be sounded upon the first intimation of danger. The workmen were em- ployed on different sections of the wall but were to congregate at one place in case of defence against the attack of the enemy. Thus they co- operated working and watching from dawn till dark. It could not but suc- ceed when overseer and workmen made it the one business of the day. 8 wire fence Luc pez Rod, Cash 3arbed Wire, 4 pt. x 6 in.; 80 -rod Gee, A0 Eflis A It IN WARE, PLUMBENG SSc per Nod, Cash spools g3075 Sam, IFURNACE WORK SUNDAY AFTERNOON (By Isabel Hamilton, Goderich, Ont.)

Nehemiah was the cup bearer to the king of Persia and afterwards gov- ernor of Judea for twelve years. Hearing that the temple was built, but the walls of Jerusalem still brok- en down, and the gates in ruins, he begged the king to send him to re- build them, "and the king granted me, according to the good hand of my God upon me." When he reached Jer- usalem he rested for three days and then in the night time he "viewed the walls of Jerusalem which were brok- en down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire." Having satis- fied himself as to the work that need- ed to be done, he approached the rulers, the priests, the nobles and the people and said: "Come and let us •build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach." They replied: "Let us rise up and build." From the very beginning they were opposed in this good work by their neighbors the Samaritans w h o thought that while the city was un - walled they could enter it and pos sess themselves of it when they 4 lOWERS117 TIMMER.

At the d&onteerce o a Mlle Wee; tboeght to he 0,11ve but can dales er examination it was folend to Tee' dead and a photogeaph of it was oles tained. It was a large bull, complete- ly tuskless and had apparently been dead for three or four d ys. The ear - mass was not sufficiently decomposed for vultures, hyenas or crocodiles to get through the hide. ut a number of crocodiles were in the river close to the bank waiting until their game was "hung" long enough to be edible. No bullet wounds were visible and it is not likely he was shot since he had no tusks). Sir William thinks that very few people have ever seen in Africa a large bull elephant, re- cently dead, without sign of external violence and Peter Pearson, an old elephant shooter who was present, said that this was his only experi- ence of the kind. The death of a young elephant from natural causes is rare. They prob- ably live for about 100 years in a wild state in Africa and if the total is as low as 200,000 there should be 2,000 dead elephants lying about in Africa every year. If there is any considerable mortality from disease the number must be much greater. It may be thought that the disappear- ance of the remains of elephants is to be explained on the same grounds as the disappearance of those of other animals, but the skull and larger bones of the elephant take a long time to disappear; they are much too large and hard to be eaten by hyenas. The bones would become visible after the burning of the grass if the ele- phant died in the open, while if he died in the forest the remains would be found near the elephant tracks, the extent and width of which must be seen to be believed. ISir William's theory is that ele- phants generally die in the water, in deep rivers, streams or swamps. The papyrus swamps of the Nile and of eastern equatorial Africa are so large and the papyrus so high that the dead bodies are never seen. In gen- eral, the old elephant, or the wound- ed elephant, goes to the water every day. As his age and enfeeblement increase the day comes when he is unable to pull himself out of the deep, muddy bottom and quietly dies there. Under the circumstances the skull and ivory tusks might remain in a fairly good state of preservation for a very long period. It is quite possible that the stories of elephant cemeteries are due to the drying up of some swamp to which elephants have resorted and in which they have died for many years. The story of the old, dead elephant seen by Sir William, was probably as follows: Elephants, like men, may be presumed to go on doing the things they have been accustomed to do un- til they suddenly find out that their hearts, or their lungs, or whatever it may be, will not steed it any longer. The elephant, as he has no doctor to advise him on the subject, probably does not realize that his heart is not quite capable of standing the exertion he has been accustomed to put it to for the last 100 years. To this ani- mal it may have seemed easy to cross the Nile where be did, but the effort of getting himself through the mud- dy bottom, and then making the last effort of hoisting himself up about six feet to get from the bottom of the shallow water on to the bank proved to be too much for him and he collapsed and peacefully died. Probably he had no idea that he was in the least likely to die, or even that he was ill. He seemed dignified even in death and I thought of the words, "Nothing is here for tears." Sir William's theory receives some confirmation from "Aloysius Horn," where the trader was told by a West Coast native that old elephants al- ways had a favorite ogey or spring of clear, cool water generally in a grove. "The old ivory, green and col- ored ivory, was always dug up around these places near a spring and was five years before, had many of them. Thompson tells that in crossing the mountains by way of the defiles of the Saskatchewan river in 1807 his party were obliged to kill several horses for food, and that they found the meat of the wild horses less tooth- some than that of the tame ones, the fat of the former being the more oily. In an unpublished manuscript Thompson says the wild horses all came from animals brought to the continent by the Spaniards. The stock thus originated bred very fast as the mares have a foal every year. There were several herds in places along the mountains, especially on the west side. The herd on the pine hills of Mount Nelson came, he said, from tame horses that had strayed away from the camps of explorers. For the greater part of two summers he hunted wild horses, captured several and tamed them. When he first came among them, they were in small groups of five to seven, in some eas- es all mares, in other cases including a stallion. He tells about running wild horses down and hobbling them, of breaking the captives to the bit and saddle and using them to ride down other -wild horses. When he was at Kootenay House, which he built in 1808, at the head- waters of the Columbia river, he hunted wild horses with the Kootenay Indians. He says in his narrative: "I have often hunted and taken them. It is a wild rough -riding business and requires bold sure-footed horses. For the wild horses are regardless of danger. They descene the steep sides of hills with as much readiness as racing over the finest ground. They appear to be more headlong than the deer. A dull mere pack horse was missing. With a man I went to look for him and found him among a doz- en wild horses. When we approached, this dull horse took to himself all the gestures of the wild horses, his nos- trils distended, his mane and tail straight out. We dashed into the herd and flogged him out. An Indian (half- breed) hasinow eighteen of these wild horses, which he has caught and tam- ed." WORLD MISSIONS It has, perhaps, been truly said that China can blame much of her recent troubles to the foreigner within her doors. He has come in with his ideals of freedom and of liberty. The preaching of the gospel of the King- dom of Jesus Christ has undoubt- edly a large influence in changing the old order of things. The coming of the foreign business man with his more honest business methods is also having its effect in turning things topsy turvy in the process of ma -wing a new China. Although reform is on the way, there is still much of strife among those who are now in control. The old ways of graft have not been forgotten. Favoritism to friends and relatives persists. Selfishness and greed still protrude themselves into public life. And what is the cure for their weaknesses and .wrongs? We feel that it lies in the introduction of the principles, not of Sun Yet Sen but those contained in the preaching of Christ when He trod the roads through the cities and villages of Palestone.—From the Henan Messen- ger. always full-grown ivory, while he could not remenaber finding any small scrivellos or female ivory in these ogeys.

And the gaso- line -driven mechanism that is chas- ing the domesticated horse off the road is adding its mighty force to the odds against the wild horse in the struggle for existence. The untamed but not untamable horses that gallop over their wide free spaces in our far western plains and hills were per- haps never highly valued by the set- tlers as a reserve from which to re- cruit their stables. But large use has been made of wild horses captur- ed and trained for farm work. Many of these animals have been shipped to eastern Canada and put into service on the roads and on farms here. But the day is past, apparently, for mar- keting them here now. Mustangs, bronchos and Indian ponies command little sale here to -day. In Western Canada wild horses have been pressed out of the farm - power and transportation economy by the automobile and by the consequent lowness of price at which horses bred on the farm can be had. They are now regarded as cumberers of the sell, consuming food that should go to the building up of cattle herds. So the wild horses are doomed. They are being killed off in large numbers. In this country their carcases are not in demand as food for human beings. But the meat is not to go to waste on that account. It has been found that horse -flesh is a palatable and nourishing food for foxes, which are being bred for their fur in many ranches in this country. The fox ranching business has been developed to surprisingly large proportions. So the wild horses, having ceased to be of such potential value as beasts of burden, are being slain to provide food for the foxes that are now be- ing bred in many ranches, and which are to be slain in their turn in order that their valuable skins may be mar- keted. In the "Narrative of his Explora- tions in Western America 1784-1812," David Thompson refers again and a- gain to the horses used by some of the Indian teibes west and east of our section of the Rocky Mountains. According to the account he got from an old Regan chief, there were no horses on the east side of our Rocky Mountainuntil about 1780, when his tribe won some bout the &ogre Imo diose, who were on the Teed aide, the Snake Indians being urs and having plenty of homee.

TO KEEP THE DRAIN IN KITC1110EN CLEAN Always flush the drain thoroughly with clean, hot, soapy water and bor ax after washing the dishes. Regu- lar use of a drain -cleaning powder is a preventive against drain troubles. •Occasionally give the drain a thor- ough treatment as follows: Pour a gallon of boiling water down the drain to warm the pipe and then follow it at once with a cup of coal oil. This emulsifies the grease in the drain. In five or ten minutes pour down the drain another gallon of boiling water to carry away the emulsified grease. Much trouble with kitchen drains could be avoided by treatment of this kind and by elim- inating as far as possible grease from dishwater. arc WHAT TO \Tis MEAT With roast pork, serve apple sauce.

Yet it is seldom that a dead elephant is seen whose death cannot be accounted for shooting or some obvious accident. Haw and where then do African ele- phants generally die of disease or old • age?
