Each sprIngtide marks a (kb u title higher than tho Ono before. Is there anything in man's higher, moral life that correspondstri nits? Can it be that while all neture is in Mlle with the infinite, singing his pralses, and finding new life, man alone Is out, of harmony? As truly as there Is a tide when life springs upward In the woods and nelcia, so truly Is there a tirth that reaches the depths of a man's life.

Golden Text: Rev. 2. 8. THE LESSON WORD STUDIES. Based on the text of tne Revised Ver- sion. Joseph in PrIson.-There is not much that is difficult to understand in the story of Jusepli ; nor is it necessary to eoler here upon a easeful analysis of tbe text, such as is found in exhaustive commentaries on the book of ConesLs. I) our present lesson there Is practically only one point concerning which a little embiguity exists. 'rids is the reference to the "vaplain ot 1110 guard," to whom Joseph was sold by the Ishinaelitish or Midianite merchantmen on their arrival in Egypt. In Gen. 37. 36, and again in 39. 1, the reference is to "Potipher, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain ,of the guard." But In 40. 3 and 4 the keeper' of the prison into whiell 'Joseph was cast tit the commatul of Poliphar is also , called "the captain or the guard," and it is not quite chnir how holly 111811 referred ts could have held the sarne or similar positions. 'rhe Hebrew title translated "blue captai:1 of the guard" means liter- elly "the chief of Me slaughterers," that is. "butchers," the court butchers al Egypt apperentlyconstituting a royal bodyguard. The Hebrew word trans- lated "ufficer" 111 the expression "ollicer of Pharaoh" (Gen. 37. 36 and 30. :1) moans in Ibis connection (court oflIcial" In the more generalized sense of Met term. The essumplion of a double nal, relive woven into one Ithat is, of com- posite authorship), im assumption highly probable on cr•ilical grounds, suggests how possibly the emblgully may have crept into tho text, but tines not assist much in getting rid of the same. Heppily the point, Is not one of impertance, 11411. does it affect In the least, thc moral arid religious teaching of the narrative. No- erbere in all literature is the over -ruling Providence that governs life and the avenging NelTIPSIS wails on sin more gt•aphicully illusnalod than in this classic narrative. Our lesson text be- gins with Joseph In' prison.
