Parker ia Mfawe aad Minerals: 0r production of coal ia 19 was 414.isJt.ta short tone. The total produetioe of the world was over 1.OOO.tOu.M short tons. Ia the combostioa of each pound of coel about two aad one-third pounds of oxygea are takes out of our atmosphere aad three aad oae-thtrd pounds of carbonic acid are gtvea off. Take the combustioa of the Caited States product alone aad igaortns what additional supply is added by the coasamptiou of oil and as aad by the exhalation of men and animals, the quantity of carbon dioxide throwa into the atmosphere last year by the coasumptkm of coal in this country was approximately 3.M.Mt.tUU 00 pounds. What becomes of it? One of the great consumers of car bog dioxide is the forest, aad these are being used up even faster than the coal It is true that the cultivation of our farms aad the raising of our enormous crops of corn, of wheat, of hay. of vegetables, etc . provide for the eonsumption of this product of fuel combustion, but will they be able to do so if e continue to increase the production aad consumption of coal as indicaed by the chart? One scientist has told me that the corn crop of Kansas wüJ take ap as much carbon dioxide aa all th trees cut ia a year. I am aot ia a position to deny it. but I'm inclined to doubt it. Oa the other hand, leaf decay aad the oxidation of plant Hie year by year form another source of carbon dioxide which probably equals the coasamptioa of it by rrowiag vegetation, la fact, ao less aa authority than Ketvm has beea credited with the predictioa that the supply of oxygea win be ased up before the supply of carboa as represented by our coal beds aad forests. This would prodore a coaditkm that would make the earth uaiaaabltabte by maa. bus. before that time arrives, we may rest assured that maa's genius will have so subdued aad utfUzed the forces of nature that the aed for the combustion of fuel in the productioa of beat, light aad power will have passed.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL

The Senior Berear Lesson for 3uv day, September 13. DAVID MADIE KIXG OVER JUDA1I AND ISKABI. 2 Sam. 2. 1-7: 6. 1-5. GOLDEN TEXT. David wont on and grow great ("David waxed greater und greater;"), and the Lord God of hosts ("for Jehovnh, the God of. hosts") was with him. 2 Snm. fi. 10. 1. And It civ in l to Kis8 after this, that David Inquired of the Ionl. saylag, Shall I go up into any of the cities of Juilah? And the Lord aaid unto him. Go up. And Duvid said. Whither shall I so up? And he said. I nto Hebron. 2. So David weitt up thither, and bis two wives also. Ahiiuuim the Jcz reelltrss, and Abigail Xahnl s wife tho Carmelite. 3 And his tuen that were wuh him did David bring up. every man with his household: and tiny dwelt in the cities of Hebron. 4. And the men of Juduh came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judnh. And they told David, saying. That the men of Jabeshgilead were they that burled Saul. 5. And David sent messengers unto the men of Jubesbgf lead, and said unto them. Blessed be ye of the Lord, that ye have showed this kindness unto your lord, oven unto Saul, and havo buried him. C. And now the Lord show kindness and truth unto you: and I also will ruqulto you this kindness, because ye have done this thing. 7. Therefore now let your hands be strengthened, and bo ye valiant: for your master Saul is dead, and also the house of Judah have anointed mo king over them. Then came all the tribes of Israel to. David unto Hebron, and spake, saying. Behold, we are thy bone and thy Hesh. 2. Also in time past, when Saul was king over us. thou wast he that leddet out and broitghtest In Israel: and the Lord said to thee. Thou slmlt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel. 3. So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron: and king David made a lengue with thorn In Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David king over Israel. I. David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and "he reigned forty years. 5. In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: anil in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judnh. I. David Anointed King over Judah. 2 Sam. 2. 1-4. The way was now clear for David to move toward the kingship. But he did not presume to take any step without divine direction. Ho was still a vassal of King Achish at Ziklag. So he consulted the divine oracles to know whether he should re turn to his native land of Judnh. He received a posltivo answer to go to Hebron. This city was centrally located in the tribe of Judah. Its mountainous position, the fact that It was a priestly settlement, and also that It was one of the oldest cities with sacred associations, made It very desirable and suitable as a capital for tho new kingdom. David had also won the good will of its inhabitants during his period of wandering. He now had quite a large following and great pos sessions. It was quite a procession which left the territory of the Philistines to establish themselves in the neighborhood of Hebron. His marriages with Ahinoam and Abigail had won the support of the southern tribes. It was advisable that he should remain In that sectlou of the country where the sentiment was most favorable to Ulm. It was not long- after his settlement in tht towns nnd villages around Hebron that representatives of the tribe of Judah voluntarily offered him the rule over thrm and anointed him their king. He had been anointed by Samuel at the age of seventeen. This action of the prophet was doubtless well known by this time, and the purpose of It would hnve been understood by the course of events. This public ceremony was the inauguration of his reign over a limited territory. Xot much Is recorded of his activity during the Una five years of his kingship. Bat It Is clear that he was busy getting ready for further developments. II. David Extending his Influence. Vers. 5-7. He could not strike for the kingdom of Israel at this time, but he could strengthen himself so as to win the kingdom at the proper time. His Intercourse with his neighbors was conciliatory. An Illustration of his policy Is seen In his message to the inhabitants of Jabesh-gllend. They were commended for tholr honorable treatment of the hotly of Saul. Ho prayed that God may bless them for this act of kindness and gratitude. He also volunteered his services to them, when they needed protection. He encouraged them with words of cheer to bo strong and valiant in this time of pressure. He then announced to them the fact that he had been anointed king of Judah, practically Implying and artfully suggesting that they should look to him for help, ns tho successor of Saul. By making friends with tho friends of Saul, by giving no occasion for enmity, he was gradually building up a strong constituency. III. David Anointed King over all Israel. 2 Sam. 5. 1-5. After the battle of Gllbon the Philistines look possession of Xorthern Palestine. Judah nnd the southern clnns had accepted the rule of David. Little remained for the hous of Saul besides the transJordan nrovlnces. It was not till after Ahner hod ropulsed the Philistines and reorganized the northern tribes, with Ish-boshoth as king, that the Xorth and South enme Into collision with each other. A civil war was carried on for two years, during which period Aimer came over to the side of David. The assnssinntlon of Ish-bosh-oth shortly aftorward removed the last link which bound Xorthern Israel to the house of Saul. Xothlng now remained to be done but for tho Xorth to acknowledge the supremacy of David. Thev had not been renlly opposed to him. but they were loyal to Saul. Everything seemed to point toward David as the man destined for the high office. Threo reasons wore Alven by this united assembly of tho nation why David hotild bo elected king. Il was not a stranger but one of their own kinsmen
