promote and encourage supreme rever
ence. Christ-like humility, good citizen
ship and pure morality, we should clear.
ly understand the means whereby the
assistance of this much to be desired
agent may be secured. AS the purpose
of the Sunday school is chiefly the relig-
ious instruction of children, selection
of characteristic and typical men and
women from the various Bible epochs of
history forms an inestimable nucleus
around which to build.
For example let us take the man
Moses as a center. Now through the
power of concentration and the law of
association. the child becomes deeply
interested in all the events from the
time he was found in the bullrushes I'M
til his mysterious burial, which time
covers vast amount of Bible history.
And so the Christ-child taken as neu.
cleus, will be means of bringing child
rem to experience the pleasures OF Bible
conversation, and religious and M raj in
terests, without q consciousness of the
study of dry Bible facts.
These are few of the many charac-
ters, the ingenious teacher may bring
before his little flock and judicious ef-
fort in this will soon bring about great
revival in Sunday school work and in
crease greatly the number of Bible stu
dents.
Thus we might go on presenting
means and methods for securing greater
interest in Sunday. school work, but
enough has been said to cause the
thoughtful mind to halt and cons der
before making use of our children as
mere machines to grind out tasteless
to still more tasteless questions.
These efforts and these alone will re-
move the giants from our pathway and
leave clear and unobstructed line Ct
march toward the goal of our highest
aspirations, which is. the unalloyed holt
ness and happiness OF the entire human
family.

built by David's son. In lesson V we
learned of David's remembering his
promise to his friend Jonathan. and con-
ferring Sauls estate on Jonathan's son
Mephibosheth, and giving him place
also at the royal table.
In lesson vi we learned of Joab and
Abishai defeating the allied Ammonites
and Syrians; again OF the whole army OF
the great Syrian conqueror Hadarezer
being defeated by the army of Israel
under David, In Lesson VII we learned
Of David's falling into grievous sin, and
by Nathan being brought to repentance.
of his making public confession, while
he warns others of the terrors of sin and
bids the righteous rejoice. In Lesson
VIII we learned how Absalom, the heir
apparent, entered into conspiracy and
turned the hearts of the people against
David, and under pretence OF going to
sacrifice, went to Hebron with two hun.
dred unsuspecting citizens, to organize
his rebellion. In Lesson TX we saw
David in Mahanaim, after he had fled
from Jerusalem, watching for news from
the battle against Absalom, and how he
bewailed the death of Absalom. In
Lesson x we learned that David con-
fessed to Solomon, who had become his
associate in the government, that it had
been his cherished desire to build tenn
pie to Jehovah in Jerusalem. and that
he had been kept from fulfilling his de.
sire; he now, after offering his own con
tribution, charged Solomon to do the
work. In Lesson XI we had specimen
Of David's psalms. wherein he gave
grateful praise to God as the source Of
all his victories. In Lesson XII we had
a passage from Proverbs intoxicating
various duties in practical morality, es.
peciaily the duty of temperance.
