ceeded it. What has been sown will be
reaped, and thus, by reviewing the time
that is gone, we may attain to some de gree
OF knowledge of that which is yet to
come. As the farmer, through his sue

MEMBERS II. L. CT am not member
OF your club put | have read the excellent
letters written for the page with much
interest.
The subject that I am going to write
upon is why Do Boys Leave the Farm. "
Chief among the reasons is to try and
make life more easy. They think work
ing from daylight till dark is not the way
to enjoy life. They read in the papers of
fortunes amaesed in a few years. They
see only the bright side of city life and
read of only the successful man. OF the
countless number who make a failure
they see nothing. The way to keep
boys on the farm is being discussed by
men at our County farmers institute, and
they differ widely in their plans. But it
is better for some boys, and the country,
too, that they left the farm for they have
become shining lights in the country.
Among them may be mentioned our illus
triOus senator, ID. w. Voorhees,. This
champion of the peoples rights and foe to
monopolistic combinations was raised on
a farm. There are other men who have
assembled to the top round of the ladder
who began lie on farm. But neverthe-
less boys, do not be too hasty in making
the change, stay on the farm until you are
needed elsewhere. "SoH FILLER"

TEXT AND NOTES FOR FEBRUARY 8.
The Covetousness OF Ahab-voiees From
Naboth's vineyard-Commsnta and
Explanations of the Lesson
Review Exercise.

Cings xii. And it came to pass
after these things that NsbOth the Jezreel-
lite, had vineyard which was in Jezreel,
hard by the palace of Ahab, king of Sama-
ria.
2. And Ahab spske unto Naboth. say
ing, Give methy vineyard that may have
it for a garden OF herbs, because it is near
unto my house and / will give thee for
it a better vineyard than it; or, ii it seem
good TO thee l will give thee the worth of
il in money.
8. And Naboth said to Ahab, The Lord
forbid it me, that | should give the inner
itance of my fathers unto thee.
(. And Ahab came into his house
heavy and displeased because of the word
which Naboth the Jezreelite, had spoken
to him; for he had said, / will not give
thee the inheritance OF my fathers. And
he laid him down upon his bed and
turned away his face and would eat no
bread.
5. But Jezebel, his wife. came TO hi
and said unto him. why is thy spirit so
sad that thou eatest no bread?
6. And he said unto her, because I
spake unto Nsboth the Jezreelite, and
said unto him. give me thy vineyard for
money: or else, if il please thee, / will
give thee another vineyard for it, and he
answered, l will not give thee my vine
yard.
Z. And Jezebel. his wife. said unto him,
dOst thou now govern the kingdom of
Israel? Arise, and eat bread, and let
thine heart be merry; Twill give thee the
vineyard of NabOth the Jezreelite.
s. 30 she wrote letters in Ahab's name,
and sealed them with his seal, and sent
the letters unto the elders and to the
mobiles that were in his city, (a) dwelling
with Naboth.
9. And she wrote in the letters, saying,
proclaim fast, and set NaOoth on high
among the people.
10. And set two men. sons Of Belial,
before him d. to bear witness against
him, saying, thou didst (c) blsspheme
God and the king. And then carry him
out, and stone him, that he may die.
II. And the men of bis CITY, even the
elders and the mobiles who (dl were the
inhabitants in bis city, did a. JeZebei had
sent unto them, and as it Was written in
the letters which she had sent unto them.
II. They proclaimed a fast and set Ma
both on hi h among the people.
Is. And (e) there came in two men
children OF Belial. and sat before him;
and the men of Belial Witnessed against
him, even against Naboth, in the pres
ence of the people, saying. Naboth did (c)
blaspheme God and the king. Then they
carried him forth out of the city, and
stoned him with stones that he died.
IA. Then they sent TO Jezebel saying,
Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
Is. And it came to pass, when Jezebel
heard that Naboth was stoned, and was
dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise.
take possession of the vineyard of Naboth
the Jezreelite, which he refused TO give
thee for money: for Naboth is not alive,
but dead.
It, And it came 20 pass, when Ahab
heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab
rose up to go down to the vineyard OF
Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession
of il.

An AIliterntiye ExploIt.

My DEAR III. l.. c. FRIENDs-During
the sleety weather of last week an
eccentric, extemporaneous and exag-
gerated example of excruciating but ex-
hilirating exercise was exhibited with an
excessive and exorable execration OF
evaporation by an expert and exper-
fenced expounder of expletory exclama-
tions. An exceedingly excitable exquisite
was exploring an excellent and exemplary
city when the icy sidewalk caused him
to execute an extremely and exclusive
excursion on his nasal extremities. With
extravagent and excited EXPLANATIONS he
expeditely and expertly exerted his ex-
iguous extremities and expeditiously ex-
changed the horizontal for the perpen-
dicular position. With an exasperated ex-
preston and midst the excessive and ex-
ultant EXPLANATIONS of the exhaustless
and exuberant boot-black fiend he made
his exit. ''roM JAY"
