Text, -the meth 7, "Rest in tbe Lord and
wait patiently for Him." Seeing gulp the
Lard, Elijah was strung and fearless, but
wben he saw Jezebel and ber anger he
wa$ weak indeed and fled for hie life.

Here is a ram tbe very opposite ot Elijah ,

no man save Jesus only.
Leneen V11. -Tho Shuziamito's Son (II
Kings iv, 25-37). Uohlen Text, Pa. 1r,
22, "east thy burden upon the Lord, and
Ho than sustain thee." The boy restored
to hie :mother front the dead would be
much more to her than if she had never
lost bin*. God, who gave her this son,
would be more to bera/so. She now know
the joy not only of the gift of a son, butt of
the rostoretIon of a son from the dead. 011,

Leesen ITIII.-Naarrian Healed (II
Kings v, 1-10. Golden Text, Jon avid
14, "Heal me, 0 Lord, and I shall be
healed; save me and I shall be saved."
All tho greatness and honor and might of
Nauman was marred by tbe fact that he
was a leper. All tbe greatness of earth is
marred by sin, and there is only ono who
can deliver, the God of Israel, Ierael's
Messiah, tbe Son of God, our Lord Jesus
Christ. As a little child was the means of
&reining N'atunan to the healer, so may
every boy and girl who knows Christ di-
rect others to Him.
Leeson IX.-Elisha at Dothan (II Kings
vi, ege). Golden Text, Ps. xxxiv, 7, "The
angel of the Lord eneautpeth rountl about
them that fear Him and delivereth them."
When people take counsel with each other
againet God or against His servants, they
are sorely blinded and deluded by the
devil, Our Gad sees and knows everything
and has all power and can do everything
(Ps. =xis; Job xlii, 2; Math. xxviii,
20). Let us ever rejoice in His presence
and power and in the ministry of angels
and gladly serve Rini without care or fear.
Lesson X. -The Death of Elisba (II
Kings xiii, 14-25), Golden Text, Ps.
15, "Precious in the sight of the Lord is
the death of His saints," Though Elisha
bad a double portion of the Spirit, yet he
was perraitted to die, while Elijah was
taken without dying. Either way 14 1. a
gain. They do rest from their labors, and
their works do follow them. Tbe bow and
arrow incident suggests that limitations
In the service of God come from us rather
than from God. The coming to life of the
dead man makes us think of the power of
His resurrection who died for us.
Lussox XL -Sinful Indulgence (Amos
vi, 1-8). Golden Text, Isa. xxviii, 7, "They
also have erred through wine and through
strong drink are out of the way." Ease
and self indulgence are not becoming in a
child of God, for "even Christ pleased not
Himself." It is our privilege to have
quietness and peace and rest, but these
only in order to serve Him wbo said, "My
Father worketh hitherto, and I work," and
"I must be about my Father's business."
We are soldiers and chosen to please Him
who bath called us to be His soldiers (II
ii, 8, 4).
Lesson XIL-Captivity of the Ten
Tribes (II Kings xvil, 9.13). Golden Text,
I Cl3rOn. xxviii, 9, "If thou seek Him, He
will be found of thee, but if thou forsake
IIina He will oast thee off forever." Every
word of God is true and shall be literally
fulfilled. The Lord testified against Israel
and their sins, warned them of the results,
earnestly and lovingly eetreated them to
return to Hire, that lie might forgive and
boal and bless them ; but they would not
bear. Therefore He did unto them as He
Ltd said (II Kings x vie 23). "Every one
of us must give /lenient of himself to
God" (Rom. xiv, 12). Our works will be
approved and rewarded or rejected, and
we suffer loss (I Con iii, 14, 15). Are we
living ea if we believed itt as will have
