DIVINE JUDGMENT.

THE GLORY OF THE LORD.-Our Les
son closes with the declaration "And the
glory of the LORD appeared in the tent of
m Getting unto all the children of Israel" The
glory of GoD was the bright symbol of his
presence in the Tabernacle, and the illumin-
ated cloud by which they had been guided in
their journey from Egypt, and which had ap
peared in awful splendor upon Mt. Sinai:-
the Sheckinah. To recognize the presence
and providence of GoD was TO see this. The
faithless Israelites were made to see the
presence and power of GoD who appeared in
symbol in the Tabernacle, his symbolic dwell
ling place in the midst of his people, in
which was the Ark, the symbolic throne of
his power as their KING. Some manifesto
ton of his power to affllot his rebellious PEG
pie may have appeared in the camp of Israel.
We are told that the spies who brought the
evil report of the land they explored, which
caused the people to rebel, died by the
plague before the LORD" except Joshua and
Caleb, -hterally by stroke before JEHo-
YAH" (37). A stroke of lightning from a
cloud which appeared at the Tabernacle may
have killed the spies. Destructive lightning
ia said to have been of frequent occurrence
in that region. The sudden death of the
spies may have been interpreted by Moses
as a manifestation of the purpose of COP to
destroy the people who refused to obey his
commands to go up and possess the Prom
ised Land"
THE RETRIBUTI0N OF UNBELIEF.-Be-
cause of the unwillingness of the people to
go forward into the land inhabited by nu-
merous and warlike tribes, whose power they
feared, Notwithstanding the Divine promise,
they were doomed to wander in the wilder
ness forty years, until the generation of the
fathers had died and another more valiant
generation had grown up to take their places
in the army of Israel (2S-34). They feared
they might die by the sword in Canaan; they
were doomed to die in the wilderness and
J never to see the land flowing with milk and

honey which GoD has promised for an inner
itance to his faithful people. They feared
their children would become slaves in Ca
naan, as they had been in Egypt; but they
were permitted to possess 1t as the inherit
ance of their unfaithful fathers. 49," says
the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews
Golden Text "we see that they could not
enter in because of unbelief." Unbelief dis
qualities for the Kingdom of Heaven. There
is a tendency to doubt "the evidence of
things not SEEM" even rather than to "hope
for what we see MOTTO fear the worst
rather than trust in the promise of good,
which ia the mission of Chris tianity to cor
rect. The unbelieving are condemned to
spiritual darkness. Only the believing and
faithful have courage to overcome the evils
that beset them in life, and to enter into the
rest of COP. COP is greater than the unbe-
lief of man, and no unbelief can finally de-
feat his purpose to give to his children the
eternal Life promised in the Gospel of JESUS
CHRIST, no more than the unbelief of the Is
raelites could successfully defeat his purpose
to give the Promised Land to his people.
The prize now within reach was thus
snatched from their leader and themselves,
for the issue of such cowardice could not be
doubtful It was clear that a multitude SO
craven and so tickle could not be launched
against warlike tribes, and hence nothing re-
manned but to continue in the wilderness.
Born in slavery, with none of the manhood
of free men, they we're evidently unit for SO
great task, nor was it less necessity than
terrible punishment when their leader an
nounced that they must wander outside the
Land of Promise till new and more valiant
race had risen in their place. The spies had
been forty days on their journey, and for
each day the host should pass a year in the
wilderness. Only Joshua and Caleb, the
two who had shown themselves stout hearted
and faithful, were to enter Canaan.-Geikte,
'sHours with the Bible"
We may we'll believe that at last all sinners
aud unbelievers shall be brought, through the
overriding mercy of the Almighty Father to
the fold of CHRIST, the heavenly Canaan
But while they sin, or doubt of COP or Inn,
mortality and Infinite Love, they are not
there. 'sThey cannot enter in because of un-
belief.n--G. L. Demarest, d. ID.

A BoUNTIFUn HARVEST.

The crop reports from our Western and
Northwestern States and Territories indicate
that this years harvest will be one of unusu-
al profit to the farmer. Especially is this
true of Iowa, Minnesota, Dakota and Ne
braska, the crop indications for all of which
are more bushels to the acre and more and
better grain to the bushel than ever before
There is no better season for testing the merit
of an agricultural region than this; the crops
are standing in the field. shock or stack, and
the investigator can get at the facts by ocu-
lar demonstration.
To encourage intelligent investigation of
the wonderful agricultural regions penetrated
by its lines, the Chicago &4Northwestern Rail
way has arranged for series OF bi-weekly
Harvest Excursions to points in Iowa, Da-
kota, Minnesota, Nebraska aud Wyoming,
to be run during the months of August, Sep
TENDER and October, for which tickets will
be sold at one fare for the round trip, or one
half the usual rates. The conditions are ex-
tremely liberal, allowing thirty days for re-
turn and permitting stop-oyer at different
points. These excursions will afford rare
opportunities to investigate the claims made
for these wonderfully productive regions, to
locate claim on 100 acres o. government
free land, to buy quarter section or more
of the cheap railroad lands, to invest in town
property, to "spy out" the multifarious min
eral deposits of the Black Hills, or to make a
trip for health and pleasure. Write to E. p.
Wilson, General Passenger Agent Chicago
& Northwestern Railway, Chicago, ILL.,, for
detailed information, and it will be furnished
promptly and free of charge.

oArARRH, CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND HAY

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious. or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites in
the lining membrane of the nose and eusta-
chan tubes. Microscopic research, however,
has proved this to be fact, and the result is
that simple remedy has been formulated
whereby catarrh, catarrhal deafness and hay
fever are permanently cured in from one to
three simple applications made By the patient
at home. A pamphlet explaining this new
treatment is sent free on receipt OF stamp,
by A. Fl. Dixon & Son, S03 West King street,
Toronto, Canada.

A PROMINENT MERCHANT IN TROUBLE.

PROMINENT MERCHANT IN TROUBLE.
Old Moneybags mopes in his Office all day,
As snappish and CROSS as bear;
The clerks know enough to keep out of his
way,
Lest the merchant should grumble and
swear.
Even Tabby, the cat, is in fear of cuff,
Or kick, If she ventures too near;
They all know the master is apt to be rough
And his freaks unexpected and queer.
What makes the old fellow 80 surly and
grim,
And behave so conf )undedly mean9
There's certainly something the matter with
him
Is it stomach, or liver or spleen?
We've guessed this liver is sluggish and
bad,
His blood ID disordered and foul.
It's enough TO make any one hopelessly mad
And greet his best friend with gTowl.
The world wide remedy, DIR. Pieroe's
Golden Medical Discovery, will correct a
disordered liver and purify the blood, tone
your system and build up your flesh and
strength.

Obituary.

That silent reaper whose name is
Death, has again entered our home
and taken a loved one from US to the
other shore.
After lingering illness, at the resi-
dence of her mother, at Hamilton Sta
ton, Rush County, Indiana, MAGGIE
w. HANSON, departed this life in her
431 year. All that medical skill, Low.
ing hearts and willing hands could do,
was done, but Death true to his mis-.
sion, marched steadily onward and on
the 18th of March her soul returned
90 God who gave It.. Gifted with
more than ordinary intellect, we also
have reason TO believe, that the best OF
all knowledge, THAT which maketh
wise unto salvation" formed a goodly
part. Her church relations were with
the United Presbyterian Church. Flu.
neral services were held at the house.
by Rev. j. Il. Hutchinson. after which
the body was laid to rest in the ceme-
