SUNDAY SCHOOL Lesson ll.—Second Quarter, For April 11, 1915. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, I Sam. xvi, 4-13. Memory Verses, 12, 13—Golden Text, I Sam. xvi, 7—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. It is certainly restful to be in the Lauds of llim who worketh all things ' after the counsel of His own will (Eph. | i, 11) and wjho says, “I will work, and who shall let It” (hinder, or Ouru back) (Isa. xliil, 13), provided we have no will of our own in the matter. Even ] Samuel seems not to have been fully ' one with the Lord concerning Saul, for he continued to mourn for him after the Lord had rejected him, so that the Lord had to say td him, “How long j thou mourn for Shhl, seeing I ) have rejected him from reigning over j Israel?” When we can say, “Even so, Father,” “Just and true are thy ways,” because we are certain that “As for God, HisXvay is perfect” (Matt, xi, 26; Rev. xv/3; Ps. viii, 30), we have ena restful life. Then its continuance depends upon our living in the perfect will of God moment by moment. Note the messages to Samuel In verses 1-3: “I will send thee to ; Jesse. I have provided me a king. I will show thee what thou shalt do. ' Anoint unto Me him whom I name unto thee.” This left nothing for Sam- ; uel but simple obedience to Him who ! was managing. But Samuel had ah objection, “If Saul hear It he will kill me.” The Lord quieted him, and matters proceeded, and Samuel did that which the Lord spake and came to Bethlehem to meet Jesse and his sons (verses 4,5). The elders of the town seemed to regard Samuel almost as God Himself or they must have had very guilty consciences, for they trembled at his coming until assured that lie c;ime peaceably. Those who are walking with God need have no fear of a visit from a man of God nor of the coming of the Lord Himself, for it is possible so to abide that we shall not be ashamed before Him at His coming (I John 11, 28). Having called Jesse and his sous. Samuel thought that he saw in Eliab a fit successor to Saul, but the Lord told him not to look on his outward appearance (verses 6,7). When we consider Eliab’s contemptuous and uncalled for treatment of David a little later (xvii, 28) we do not wonder that the Lord refused him. for He knew what was In man (John ii, 25). Seven of Jesse’s sons passed before Samuel, all who had come to meet him, but the Lord's choice was not among them, so that Samuel had to ask, “Are here all thy children?” Then he learned that the youngest had been left at home to keep the sheep, and Samuel said, “Send and fetch him, for we will not sit down till heocome hithei*” (verses 8-11). lam interested to know how David felt that day when left at home and all the other brothers went to meet Samuel, for, knowing what we do of David, we can easily imagine that he would be more desirous to meet Samuel than any of his brothers would, even though there might be nothing especially for him in it. Some day In the kingdom we may talk with him about that particular day. I never read or write this story or think about It that I do not rejoice to see the Lord’s way in it. The young man left at home because he was seemingly of no account on this great occasion, and then all the older brothers set aside and compelled to wait till he came, and then to see Samuel take the horn of oil and anoint him in the midst of his brethren. I think I can hear Eliab say to some of his brothers as they went homeward, “The old prophet must be in his dotage.” There is nothing to it. for they did not hear the Lord say to Samuel, “Arise, anoint him, for this Is he” (verses 12, 13). The comfort I get from it is that the Lord looketh on the heart, not on the outward, appearance, and when he wants you for any work He will find you and get you there in spite of all obstacles. It is ours to keep quietly on minding our sheep, like David or Moses; thrashing our wheat, like Gideon; plowing, like Elisha; doing housework, like Mary of Nazareth; mending nets, like Peter and John, or whatever else is our regular occupation. The Spirit of the Lord came upon David, but departed from Saul because of Saul’s failure to obey (13, 14). God allows us to choose, and if we choose the evil and not the good we have no one to blame but ourselves. By the advice of Saul's servants he sought some one to quiet him when the fevil spirit \vas upon him, and they recommended David, the son of Jesse, as a cunning player on the harp, a valiant man of war, a prudent man, a comely man, and they hlso Said that the Lord was with him (verses 15-23). Being sent for, Saul loved him greatly and made him his armor bearer. How strange it all seems! God moves in a mysterious way. What a wonderful chapter! How can we refrain from saying, “Lord, take control of me and all my affairs and work out in and through me all thy good pleasure.” It would seem that Jesse was an old man at this time, and his family consisted of eight sons and two daughters (xvii, 12; I Chron. ii. 16), but David’s mother’s name is not given. The whole story is an Illustration of the truth of Epb. U 10, that ?lod has the life and service of His redeemed all planned heforehar.djind will wort it out If we will let Hi*’. See J er. i, 4-8.

I Covell’s Little Joke I ’ t It Didn’t Turn Out the Way J; He Expected. A By WILLIAM NORRIS, JR.

Balmoral was a mining town, and all Balmoral, with the exception of Dan Betterley and his sister, thought Colonel Covell's joke a good one. The Betterleys were excepted because the joke was on l>an. -»• The joke bad sprung from a careless remark made by Rob Henders when Julie Belterley had refused to marry Howard Wetton on the ground that she did not want to leave Ben alone to keep house in bachelor discomfort. "Some oue would do Wettpn a personal favor by marrying off'Ben,” suggested Benders, and the rest of the crowd shouted with delight at the idea of the silent Benjamin marrying. “But he wouldn't know how to ask a girl.” suggested-Colonel Covell. “Some one would have to pop the question for him. By John Rogers.” he added. “I think i’ll do it for him! I’ve a maiden aunt back east who’s been crazy to get married for more years than I’ve lived Her name’s Adorn Dedrick, and she must be about sixty how*. “She’s got a little money, and she may think that he’s marrying her for that, but she’ll take him. We’ll carry along the game until we’ve proposed for him, and then we ll let Ben get the answer or else we'll bring the old lady on and let him fight it out with her;” "That would be great.' declared Headers approvingly. "Let her walk right up to him and put her arms around his neck and say ‘Darling!’ i’ll bet that will scare him into talking ” "I’ll be one to help pay the old lady’s traveling expenses on this nere excursion,” broke in Denver Bill. "What will it cost?” “Say $400.” suggested Covell as he took off his hat and threw in S2O. In a few minutes more than the needed sum had been realized, and. calling for pens and paper, Covell wrote the first letter, while the rest of the crowd looked on. Betterley was not disliked in Balmoral, but bis taciturn ways and his refusal to make one of the crowd that nightly thronged the hotel bar marked him a man apart from the rest. Hence the crowd was willing to pay for the pleasure of seeing, his amazement when his undesirable bride elect should appear. Unmindful of all postal regulations, the postmaster agreed to let Covell have the letters addressed to Dan Betterley should any come from the little New England town where Miss Adora Dedrick lived. Presently it came, a heavy letter in which Miss Dedrick expressed a willingness to correspond with a man so well recommended by Cousin Covell. “1 guess she’s forgotten you. colonel.” suggested Benders when this line was reached, but Covell merely grinned ap preciatively aud continued to read. There was little to laugh at in the letter. Indeed, more than one In the crowd wished there was some one back east who would write letters like that to him. but Covell’s vivid description of Miss Dedrlck’s overrii>e charms and the thought of what Dan would say when she arrived kept the joke alive during the correspondence that followed. Finally when Miss Dedrick wrote that she was sending her picture and the accompanying photograph proved to be that of a-comely girl scarcely out of her teens Covell rolled on the floor in his delight. “Cousin Adora was that old before they knew how to take pictures,” he insisted. “She must have begged this of a photographer.’ I thinji that It’s time to spring the joke now. We’ll send her the money to come on with and ask her t« start at once. Dan will see this picture, and when Cousin Adora comes I reckon he’ll be some surprised.” Covell laboriously indited a lengthy letter, in* which he declared Dan’s inability to wait longer for his bride and begging her to come west at on<*e. A few days later a telegram tele phoned from the railroad town to camp announced her start, and when they had learned the sense of the message the plotters allowed it to be delivered, while at the same time Miss Adora’s last letter and her picture, inclosed in the original letter were placed back in the postottice and delivered to Dau that evening, Dan received them, but said not a word the next day, and the crowd was disapi»ointed. “Wait until he sees what he draws.” reminded Covell. “He’ll go some shy ot sleep when Cousin Adora gets after him with all those letters. She’ll never believe that he didn’t-write them.” The thought cheered the disappointed ones, and even when Dan went quietly to his claim on the morrow and did not even ask the post master about the letter they chuckled as they thought of the awakening that was in store for hint. Every man in the eamp was on hand when the stage came over from Bus ton three days later. Far down the trail the driver waved his hat three times as a signal that the bride had arrived, and they were al! lined up about the front of the hotel where they could watch Ben and his sister without t>eing so near that he t>ight suspect something. i'Dere was a tense moment when the

veiled figure descended from the interior of the stage, but a murmur of dlsapi>ointuieut followed when it was seen that a heavy automobile veil was impenetrable. Dan came forward, and the arrival turned to him. He led her up to his sister, aud the three climbed into the Betterley buckboard and were off to Dan’s shack before the camp fairly realized that it was being robbed of its’ fun. "ft's going to be curious when she takes off that there veil,” said Headers, with a sigh, “but it’s darned mean that we can’t declare in on the deal. 1 sort of feel that I’ve been cheated.” "Same here.” chimed another voice, and. though Covell urged that there still would be plenty of fun. he was decidedly unpopular for the moment. In an effort to change the humor of the crowd he invited them over to the Brindle Pup. and they were still having drinks at his expense when Dan Betterley strode in aud drew Covell to oue side. “Look here.” he said quietly, but with a ring of determination in his voice. "Dora has been asking for ‘Cousin Co-, veil.’ aud 1 suppose that means you. if it dues you are at the bottom of this trick. 1 want to know what it all means." “it was a sort of joke.” explained Coveil, who did not appear to be greatly enjoying the “joke.” “Some of the boys thought that you ought to be married, so’s Julie could marry Howard Wetton. and I remembered that 1 had a Cousin Adora back east who’s been wanting to be married.for the last fifty years, so 1 thought I’d make the whole lot of you happy and”— "And you did the writing," concluded Dan. "From what Dora says I gather that there were a number of letters 1 never saw. 1 want them.” From the saloon safe Covell extracted the package of letters and silently turned them over to Betterley. “1 suppose you know what the punishment is for illegal use of the mails?” he asked, raising his voice. “The first hint from any oue that reaches my wife's ears to the effect that she was the victim of a rotten practical joke will bring a postal inspector here who will see that you get what’s coming to you!” “Your wife!” gasped Covell. “Yob don't mean to say that you’re going to marry that mummy!’’ “Doesn’t the fact that yon are still alive argue that?” asked Betterley. "The joke appears to do on you, Covell. 1 fell in love with her photograph just as Dora did with mine, and 1 was well content to make the match you so amiably planned.” “She looks like that photograph?” asked Covell gaspingly. “It doesn’t half do her justice.” declared Betterley fondly. “The Adora Dedrick that you have been corresponding with became Mrs. Henry Sprague some ten years ago. This Adora is her niece, her brother’s child, pametl after her. She was the only Miss Adora Dedrick, and she received the letters. * She wants to see her cousin, and if you dare hint anything when you come up i’ll”— "You won’t have to.” said Covell humbly. “I’ve acted like a hound puppy. Dan. You needn’t be afraid. I’m only too glad the joke's been switched." “Same here,” said Betterley, more contentedly. "You felloivs come up tonight. There’s going to be a double wedding, for now Julia can marry Wetton. You’re a pretty good joker, colonel!” “I ain’t no joker.” declared Covell, with more emphasis than grammar. “I’m one of them pretty pink Cupids that they have on valentines- and I'm rather good at the job too.” The Lance In Warfare. The German authorities obviously believe in the lance. The uhlan regiments are carrying.it, and their battle equipment is certainly formidable, for in addition to the lance they have a carbine and a saber, which is slung on the saddle. The trend of military opinion is to regard cavalry merely as mounted infantry. Ironing Edges of Collars. A man in Faris has invented an iron for the edges of collars, it makes them perfectly smooth, thus preventing them from scratching or chafing the skin, it consists of a small rod with a groove near one end. through which the edge of the collar is passed.—New York World.

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT. Massage For Bruises. Massage is useful iu treating bruises, particularly the severe contusions due to external violence. The rubbing should be done with a stroking movement, using the fingers or the palm, and always directed from the center of the contusion. In this way great relief will often be obtained in a few minutes. The massaging should be done twice a day and should not be con tinned for more than fifteen minutes at a sitting. In massaging sprains the rubbing should be directed toward the joint, not away from it. In such conditions the time of the application may be lengthened to half an hour, and a greater amount of pressure exerted than in cases of siinple contusion. The parts directly over the joint, however, be handled gently, as otherwise more harm than good may be done.

Croxone is the most wonderful remedy yet devised for the cure of such troubles because it removes the cause. It is entirely different from all other remedies. It soaks right into the kidneys, through the walls and linings; cleans out the clogged up pores; neutralizes and dissolves the poisonous uric acid, and makes the kidneys filter and sift from the blood alt the poisonous waste matter that clog the system and cause such troubles. It matters not how long you have suffered, how old you are, or what you have used, the very principle of Croxone is such, that it is practically impossible to take it into the human system without results. There is nothing else on earth like it. If you suffer with pains in your back, and sides, or have any signs of kidney, bladder trouble, or rheumatism, such as puffy swellings, under the eyes or in the feet and ankles, if you are nervous, tired, and run down, or bothered with sleep disturbing urinary disorders, Croxone will quickly relieve your misery."
