The Godegiveu tvistioni which had foreseen the year tit femlee and bag Made provision for the teaine was equally manifest in dis- pensing the supply. In the wide- spread, desolation began the fulfil- mentment of pliophetic destiny for the chosen people, and the training ot tnelividuals merged into the develop - Meat of a Dation. For twenty-two years Joseph's brethren had been ex - mitt from special trial and their sin had slept, but now the time ot awakening had come. God had pers ranted and counteracted the will, but though thoir designs had been over- ruled, the actors were not exonerated. The severe coroduct of Joseph toward theta was facessary tor their moral discipline. A reconciliatiou too eas- ily granted woula hate begotten a light estimate of their own drong- do. neg. In the b.our of their own dis- trees they recalled the pleadings of their borther who "is net,' "We are verily guilty concerning our brother ....he besought us and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us." joeeph's 'love for his breathren was as wise as it was noble and undeserved. Behind an austere eountenance he clieriehed a tender and Yearning spirit. He Was dealtng with Men who had proved themselves `wholly untrustworthy; and he had 'aced to prove both themselves and • thelr declarations. Far-reaching in- terests depended upon the mutual re- latioe.slaps, and it war only at the point ef hopelessness in the thicken- ing circumetancee about them that they could understand either them- selves or lam, When their quickened consciences and humbled. hearts pre- paerd them to receive forgiveness, it 'was readily bestowed, The strength of forgiveness is expreesed in with- holding -its manifestations until the needful discipline is .secured. The hiding of God's prtiednce often pre- pares the way for fuller revelation and closer fellowship. II. Forgiveitess nestowed.

In the present case further trial would have beeo cruel and use- less. • Their soreow for the past was .sincere and overwhelming. They were prepared to *accept and appre- ciate forgiveness.

The French Representatives Still Unknown. Paris, Cable. -The Inter -Allied Con- terence will reassemble on December 16 or 17. :The meetings will be at the Foreign Office in the Quai d'Orsay and not at Versailles. David Lloyd George, the British Premier, and A. J. Balfour, the Foreign Minister, expect to' come here at that time to meet President Wilson and attend the conference-, but the elections in Great Britain may not permit them to remain. more titan two or three days. The opening of the Peace Congress is set for the first week In januanY. The first meetings will be for the ac- tual framing of the preliminaries of peace with the representatives of the enemy powers who will be present. T -he names of the French delegates to the Peace ,Con,gresa have not as yet been announced., but it is understood they will be three members of the Government, and possibly a faurth member. The British delegates will be Premier Lloyd •George, Foreign Seeretary Balfour, Chancellor of the Exehequer Andrew Bonar Law, George Nicol' Barnes, labor member of the War 'Cabinet, and a fifth delegate not yet selected. It is anticipated that the peace deliberations will last about four menthe, and, unless unforeseen olaatacles arise, that final action will be reached toward early past of May. viffiriTED— Fenn:: re xyJANTED-0001‹ AND 1-101.13EMAID,• .vv modern home and equipment, mini- mum wages, thirety and twenty-five pet Month respectively, references required.

A practical application of modern science is the discovery and wide use of a method of treating the bite Of poisonous snakes, batted upon prin- ciples Which were dieclosed by bac- teriological experiment. If a horse be injected with small quantities, of the venom of a serpent tinder proper conditions he will gradually develop In his blood certain antidotes for the poison, and subsequently, by drawing the blood from these animals and sep- arating the serum, there is obtained material, which can be used practic- ally as a Means of preventing death which ordinarily, follows tlx bite ot poisonous snakes. This principle was discovered mime years ago, --but at first could be applied ouly to the venom of serpents of the old world, and not to the rattlesnake group, which is characteristic of the new world. More recently, however, methods of applying the prineiple to the ,rattlesnake poison have been ob- tained, so now a serum is manufactur- ed protecting against the bite of the rattlesnake group. The material pre- pared in this way, it is said, can be kept for years, and it is now usual to have a quantity of these materials on hand for emergencies in the regions or the world *where the bites of venomous snakes are more or less common. The principle concerned is identical with that of the preparation and use of diphtherial antitoxiie For- tunately it proves that the venom of many snakes is so sinallar that the same serum may serve as an anti- dote to a large number of kinds of poisonous serpents. The serums that are now prepared are some of them what are known as polyvalent serums, which means that they have been made by inoculating the horse with the poisons of several different kinds of serpents, resulting in a serum whites will prove an antidote fortalmoet any type of snake bite.-Springtield Re- publican.
