siei; after with
Jehovah, was miraculously sup-
plied, Then came•Isra,ells war with
Amakk, •familiar to Bible readers
principally because of the incident
on the inbuntaan top in which Aaron
and Hui: supported the hands ot
Moses while he prayed, for Israel's
victory. Not long afterward, Jeth-
ro, the .priest of Mellen, lVfoies's
father -in -raw, • visited the camp of
Israel in the wilderness, giving
• Moses wise counsel concerning the
way in whidh he might'bestadmin-
ister the important affairs of his
difficult office (chapter la). Our
lesson passage takes up the thread
of the story immediately following
the departure of Jethro.
Verse' 1. In the third month -
According to Execl. 12. 1, 2, the de-
parture of Israel' froin Egypt was
commemorated by the inaugura-
tion of a new calendar: "This
month shall be unto you the begin-
ning of months; it shall be the first
month of the year to you." -But
the first month of the Jewish calen-
dar corrasponded approximately
to our month of April, which would
fix the time ol the year for the
events of our lesson as naideumraer.
The same day -Three months to
a day after their depaeture out of
Egypt.
Wilderness of Sinai -The unhab-
ited district in the immediate vicin-
ity of the mountain. Sinai itself
is asually identified with Hoiash,
and located near the a,oethern point
of the penineula between the Gulfs
of Suez and Akabah,
Rephitlim--Sornewhero in the vi-
cinity of Sinai, perhaps just north-
west of the mountain itself.
3. Moses went up unto' God -
Went up the mountain to be alone
in meditation and prayer.
The house of Jacob -Jacob's de-
scendants, the Israelites.
1...Bare you on eagles' wings -A
beanbifnl figure illustrating solici-
tude of Jehovah for his people. The
habits of the parent eagle were not
unfamiliar to the desert pilgrims.
This king of 'birds is said to hover
round and beneath its young when
these make their' first attempts to
fly, ever ready to• support them on
expanded wing when they become
exhausted. • '
Brought you unto myself -Sepa-
rated yon from other peoples wor-
shipping other gads.
5, 6. My covenant -From this
time forward Israel's relationship
to Jehovah is to be a peceullar
covenant relationship. Israel be-
comes Jehovah's own possession, a
kingdom of priests and a holy na-
tion. "And strangers shall stand
and feed your flocks, and foreign-
ers 6141 be your plowmen and
vine-drgssers. But ye shall be nam-
ed the.Priests of Jehovah" (Isa.
61. 5, ch.
Versea to 15 inclusive record
the preparations made by Moses
and the people for the' further
manifeStatien of Jehovah's will to-
ward them, in harmony with Jeho-
vah's announcement to Moses.

to the people discernible between
the peals of thunder.

hension.

How to Remove Speck From Eye.
The quiekest and safest way of
. .
removing a partacle from the eye is
described by Hugh Wrigley, Of
Philadelphia, in•a letter to Popular
Mechanies.- He says that when
working art an emery wheel a spec
of steel flew into his eye where-
upon a fellow workman felt along
the lapels of his coat until he found
a protruding horsehair. This he
milled forth and' formed it into a
loop by folding it double. The eye-
lid was- eurned back over a pepell ;
the speck of steel was found and re-
moved by drawing the loap-of horse-
hair/over it. This' is painless and
cannot injure the mos€ sensitive'

would pledge011raeliOeS, as ;did our
fathers with a whole hearted en-
thusiasm; to "hate them, 0 Gad,
that hate thee" -to "hate them
with a perfect hatred." Gentleness,
kindness, faith, meekness, temper-
ance, pewee, toleration, good will;
love --these are the watchwords of
prasent day religion, and any at-
tempt to revive the bigotries -and
rigors which were characteristc of
former da,ys certainly wonld be re-
garded as a reversion to an out-
grown and .outworn barbarism.
Tha-t all of this development away
from hatred and into love is in gen-
eral benefident I have no doubt.
"Peace on the Earth"
is certainly destined to be the
crowning achievement of religion,
and he cannot be regarded as a
friend of his kind'evho would lift so
much as bit little finger to stay the
universal reign of "good will among

me at least it iS something of a re -
Hee, as 1 flounder about in "the
mush of concession" in which I find
myself immersed in these days to
return now and then to the blood
an,c1 iron of former times when men
hated as passionately as they lay -
ed. -Why should we not hate now,
as hey did then, ell vice and crime
and sin? Why should we not gill
hate war and poverty and disease'?
Why should we not still hate "with
a perfect hatred" everything that
is meant in our text by the fearful
word "evil"1 Where is there a

Hatred anti Love
are more nearly related than, we
sometimes think in this •easy-going
age. It is cloolbtful if any ma,n can
really love the true, the bea,utifut
aeed the good who does not at the
same time hate "with a perfect hat-
red" the _false, the ugly and the •-
had. William Watson is right when
he says in his great poem on '
here Burns:- _
"To him the powers that formed
him brave,
Yet weak to brew's the fatal wa,vee
Thc mighty gift of Hatred gave-
, A gift above
All other gifts benefic, save
The gift of Love."
I venture to lift my voice, there-
fore, in thiS age of honeyed ease,
for a, revival of hatred. Not a hat- e
red of persons or classes or nationa
or races! Never a hatred directed
at any individual or group of in-
,cliviclualei But a hatred that hall
purge like a fire -cleanse like a,
flood -break up the hardened crust
of vested wrong and hoary injustice
-
like an earthquake 1 There is need
for a hatred of this kind to -day, ex-
actly as there was in the days of
Amos, that the crooked may be
made straight and the rough places
plain -that the way of the Lord may,
speedily be prepared, And the ac-
cepta,ble year of the Lord farthwith

Holmes.
CHANCES FAVOR FUGITIVE
Deportation of Thaw Directly to New York Con.•
• sidered Very Unlikely
A deepatch from Ottawa says:
The last instruction& issued from
the immigration Department to the
officers in Sherbrooke afford a
gleam of hope for Thaw, inasmuch
as the officers are not directed spe-
cifically to deport Thaw at the New
York State :boundary, The inertia -
thine are to carry out the -regula-
tions in regard to Thaw, as they
wouhrhe carried out- ia regard to
any other man. That leaves the
officials free to send Thaw back the
way he came, the usual course, if
they see fit. The view of the immi-
gration authorities *teems to be that
while Thaw is entitled to no. favors,•
at the same time they are not call-
ed npon lo go Out of their -Way to
prejudice his chances. It is be-
lieved hero that Thaw in accord-
ance with the instructions to 'carry
out the law" will re-enter the
United States at or near the point
of ,,his entry into Canada, and is in
no danger of being taken to the*
New York State line,
Jerome to Act for State.
A despatch from Albany,
says 1 William Travers Jerome,
formerly district attorney of New
York City, was appointed by
Attorney -General Carmody on Fri-
day a special Deputy Attorney -
General, Mr, Jerome was specially
designated to represent the •state
in procuring the return of Harry
K. Thaw to New York's jurisdic-
tion. He was selected because of
his entire familiarity .with the Thaia
case gained in the two murder
trials and as special ,counsel in sev-
eral attempts of Thaw to establish
his sanity by legal prooedure.
It is not, the present intention to
send Mr. Jerome to Canada, whore
Deputy Attorney -General Kennedy
is directing the state's case, but to
employ his services in proeuring the/
extradition of Thaw feora any state
to which he may be deported from
Canada.
HOW PLANTS LURE INSECTS.
Eat, Living Things Almost as Thor-
oughly As Do Animals.
Among the strangest of all na-
ture's products are the insect -eat-
ing, or carnivorous, plants. They
actually catch, eat, a,nd digest vari-
ous insects by a process pra,ctically
as thorough as that of the animals.
The so-calded Venus "fly -trap" or
"vegetable butcher' " is one of the
most remarkable ofthese, It grews
In a wild date in the forests of
North Oarolina., where it creeps
along the ground, presenting thous-
ands of gaping mouths, into which
the unsuspecting fly or insect is lur-
ed and imprisoned. - ,
The leaves of this plant consist of
two valves, shaped like clam shells,
which, when closed, form a trap.
The ends of the leaves are baited
with a sweet jniee which attracts
the insect. The leaves are covered
with minute hairs, which corres-
pond very closely to the arrange-
ments of the nervous system in ani-
mals. On the edge of the leaves
are 1010:1 of long, line teeth.
When the unsuspecting insect has
been hared to the leaf by the at-
tractive juice he steps upon one
of the microscopic hairs, and,,pres-
to I the two valves shut with
• snap, keeping Mr. Fly secere..
Still more curious are certain
plants 'in Borneo which distill
liquors for the purpose of luring
their v,ictinis. Many of these. are
Miniature grog shops. In their
leaves are little pitohors, which are
filled with hard alcoholic liquors.
Each of the pitchers has a tight -fit-
ting cover which keeps the deev and
ritin from diluting the liquor. No
scroniesvs have yet seeceeded au an-
alyzing the liqUors with any aids -
factory eColts, bat it 10 evident
that :they are of different' kinds,
since different speeies 05, the plants
ettract different inseets.
Theonest wonderful tif all these
litnier-dietilling plants 'are those
which attract,sluge and fregs, Those
attraeting slugs hei>e ridge,s 00 the
leaves that guide the gnest to the
taproohny deep dOWn in the flower.
The doors, however, swing inwiird,
and there is tie', retracing of
steps, Rows et little beei.h bhe
interior of the leaves remove all
possibility of escape.
In the plants that catch frogs
there is a sharp thorn near the pit-
cher on which the frog is impaled
and thus held fast.
The most unique of all the pro-
ductions of nature is the plant pop-
ularly known as the "goose plant.''
It is a native of Guatemala, and re-
ceives its name &veal the hurl, which
has the shape of a goose floating
along the water with its neck
