After starting for his work the j other morning Taylor happened to think of something he had forgotten and returned to the house to get it. While walking about the kitchen he heard a great racket upstairs. Considerably alarmed he called: “What in the world is the matter, Mary? Has anything happened?” There was a moment’s silence, then his wife replied: “Oh, is that you?” “Yes, who did you think it was?” “I heard some one walking about down there and I thought it was a burglar.” “But the noise—” “I was making a lot of noise so that he would think there was a man in the house.” Accommodating. “Stop—hey, stop,” yelled an excited looking farmer, running toward the road as we passed in our car. My friend put on the brakes and ran back to give first aid, when the farmer turned and beckoned frantically to a little boy who came from the house to the road and then close to the car “Look it over,” said his father as the boy walked all around us. “this running machine is called an auto.” “All right,” said the boy at last. “I saw enough of it,” and we were allowed to proceed.—Exchange.

Experiments have proved it entirely practicable to deliver belated transatlantic mail steamers at sea by airplanes. The ship may have taken Its departure several hours previously, yet the flying machine, with a speed of 100 miles or more an hour, can easily catch up with it and put the mail aboard. A plane of the “flying boat” type is used for this purpose, and the waterproof mail bag is held in a chute on the side of the hull. The aviator flies over rhe ship and the rigging entangles a long line dropped from the plane that has grapple tails on its end. This line is attached to the mail bag, which, when the grapple tails catch, is jerked out of its chute, falling into the sea. It is then an easy matter to haul the mail bag aboard, while the steamer continues its uninterrupted voyage. Out of Luck. Upon my return from calling one afternoon I ran into my mother’s. My sister opened the door for me, and without looking into the living room, I blurted out: “Gee, I had the best luck! Four of them were not at home!" When I went in there sat the four playing cards with my mother. My embarrassing moment has lasted ever since that day.—Chicago Tribune.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SJNWSOIOOL Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D„ Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright, 1920, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR JULY 4 DAVID IN CAMP AND COURT. LESSON TEXT—I Sain. 17:1-18:16. GOLDEN TEXT—David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the Lord was witli him.—l Sam. 18:14. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL—I Sam. 19: 1-17; Ephes. 6:10-20. PRIMARY TOPlC—David and the Giant. JUNIOR TOPIC — The Shepherd Boy Conquers a Giant. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Fighting tlie Good Eight. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC Overthrowing Modern Goliaths. I. David in Camp (I Samuel, 17). IS hile the armies stood eyeing each other for battle the I‘hllistiues, having a warrior among them of great strength, sought to decide the war by a combat between two selected champions. The ngtiou whose ehumpion was slain was to be subject to the other. ! 1. The champions (vv. 4-37). (1) Goliath of the* Philistines (vv. 4-11). Note his characteristics; (a) He was a giant (v. 4). Saul made no attempt to meet this giant. Even Jonathan, who had distinguished himself at Mlchmash (I Sam. 14), seems to have lacked in courage, (b) He was filled with conceit. His size, his panoply of war and his strength caused him to believe that no evil could befall him. (c) He was boastful. Likely his reputation reminded them of a former experience when Samson, Israel’s giant, wrought such great mischief among them, (d) He was defiant. He openly defied the army of Israel—the people of the Most High, (e) He was scornful. He treated the Israelites with the utmost contempt. (2) David the Israelite (vv. 13-37). In the providence of God, David was sent to the camp at a time to hear the boasting of this proud and contemptible Philistine. His throe eldest brothers were in the army and his father sent him with some provisions for t'hem as well as for the captain. While talking with his brothers Goliath made his appearance. The sight of Israel's cowardice and lack of zeal for God prompted David to offer his service. He was not a blind enthusiast who disregarded the use of means, but was careful to use means, and most particular as to what they should be. He put aside the untried armor of Saul, knowing that God's will for him was to use by faith that which he had thought insignificant. 2. The battle (vv. 38-48). When Goliath beheld David coming up against him he cursed him by his gods Dagon, Baal and Astarte, showing that it was not merely a battle between David and Goliath, but between the true God and false gods. David hastened to meet Goliath. A rom his sling smote Goliath an<r -,yjt to the earth upon his face. David went forth in the name of the Lord of Hosts that all the earth might know that there was a" God in Israel. 3. The victory (vv. 49-58). Goliath was killed and the Philistine army routed. This victory is a prophecy of a greater one when the devil, the defiant enemy of God, shall be broken and his army put to flight. 11. David in Court (18:1-16). 1. Saul jealous of David (vv. 1-9). David went unto battle with Goliath out of zeal for God and true religion, not for personal glory; but it turned out as always, that because he made God first, God honored him. “Him that honoreth me. I will honor.” Upon David's return from the pursuit of the Philistines he was met by a triumphal chorus of women from all the cities of Israel, shouting pniises unto "him for his victory over their enemies. This was too much for Saul. This was but the occasion which fanned into a flame the passion which lingered in Saul’s bosom. 2. Saul tries to kill David (vv. 10, 11). This is an example of the awful tragedy which may result if we harbor envy and jealousy. Saul had prepared a place in his heart for this evil spirit to dwell. When one gives himself up to the indulgence of his baser passions the devil finds a place in his heart to dwell. 3. David's wise conduct (vv. 12-16). Because Saul recognized that God had departed from him and that David must increase while he must decrease, hb tried to get rid of David. He sent him from him and made him captain over his army. His envy even assumed a role of cunning and he offered his daughter to David as a reward for bravery in battle. Not that he cared for David, but that the Philistines might kill him instead of doing it with his own hands ( f. 17). In spite of all this. David acts discreetly. He wins the favor of the people and is loved by the Lord. Despite Saul's intrigues David went from success to success. He was going upward while Saul was going downward. The issue in both cases was the result of a personal choice. The Conqueror. He who looks with unafraid eyes on life. He who walks patiently and with cheerful heart the unknown path, seeking with steadfast gaze the invisible goal. He who is not overborne by the past nor overawed by the future but takes the utmost from the present. He । who is neither conquered by defeat nor defeated by victory, but lives in time for eternity. He who knows that men may kill the body that is al! they can do. and commits himself unreservedly to the enterprise of God.— Rev. Percy T. Olton. Mourning for Sin. It Is one thing to mourn for sin because it exposes us to hell, ami another to mourn for it because it is an infinite evil: one thing to mourn for ’t because it is injurious to ourselves, ami another to mourn for it because it I is wrong and offensive to God. It is | one thing to be terrified; another, to be humbled. —G Spring. j

BERANGER'S HEART TOO KIND Great French Poet Continually Preyed On by a Host of Ingrates Who Plucked Him. Interesting anecdotes are told of the great French poet, Beranger, who died In 1857. The poet was as poor as he was generous. All he had he gave away, and when there was nothing left he sent the beggars who haunted his house to call on his numerous friends. One of the characteristics of this unfortunate benefactor who was always surrounded by a host of Ingrates, was his tolerant spirit. Since there was no ante-chamber in his modest home, the beggars who knew the house stayed outside on the staircase; It was impossible to see him without finding a half-dozen of them on the stairs.There they used to wait like ravens for the small change, old clothes, and sometimes new clothes, that Lisette was the first to distribute to them. When friends remonstrated with Beranger for giving away things he need- | ed to people whom he did not know, , Lisette would answer: “Oh, now, Beranger will just write another song—the lazy fellow 1" Got Her Revenge, All Right. “Gentlemen of the jury,” the eml- j nent counsel wound up his eloquent oration. “I leave the rest to you.

As men, you would scorn to insult a woman—or llltreat one—to say aught which is unbecoming or unmannerly to one of the gentler sex—” He paused, with an angry glance at the back of the court, where there was a sudden disturbance. Then he shrank back as a stern-looking woman faced him coldly. “And only this morning,” she said loudly, “that man called me a meddlesome old cat I” She was his mother-in-law.—Rebo-both Sunday Herald.

DIDN’T WAIT TO BE ASKED Elsie's Little Scheme to Test Sweetheart’s Fidelity Could Hardly Be Called a Success. Elsie, about to be married, decided at the last moment to test her sweetheart ; so, going to her friend, Maude, the prettiest girl she knew, she said to her, although she knew it was a great risk: “I’ll arrange for Fred to take you out tonight—a walk on the beach In the moonlight, supper, and all that sort of thing—and I want you. In order to put his fidelity to the proof, to ask him for a kiss.” Maude laughed, blushed, and as- | sented. The plot was carried out. The next day Elsie visited her friend, and said, anxiously: “Well, Maude, did you ask him?" “No, Elsie, dear.” “No! Why not?” “I didn’t get a chance; he asked me first” A Big Drive. “I wonder this rotten club doesn’t drive you to matrimony.” “My dear sir, matrimony drove me to this club.” —I’an. Tenancy.

One Friend Less. One of my most embarrassing moments came soon after I was married, when I met an old acquaintance and begged to know why she had never yet been to call upon me. Rather coldly she replied: “I did not know that you wished me to, as I received no announcement of your marriage.” Rather horrified and embarrassed to think she had been forgotten when the list® were made up, I lost my head and blurted out: “Oh, but you know we only sent those to our friends.” Naturally after that I had one friend lesav ! —Chicago Tribune.
