MEANING (Verses II and 12).-Then
came the explanation OF the vision
The angel who had been the guide In
all that had transpired the Hand of
the Lord, as he is called (verse u, be-
came the interpreter to the prophet.
The bones were the whole house OF
Israel" The figure was very appro-
pirate. 1t indicated the decay and
dissolution of the nation, a dead ma
tion in fact, cast out into the valley,
not even worthy of burial. The dis
jointed fragments of a great people
were the only remains. Their hope
was gone, and they were cut off from
fellowship from God and participa-
tion in the worlds work But as
these bones had lived, so Israel shall
live. They shall come out Of their
graves. they shall be brought again
to their own country. Ezekiel is di-
rected to proclaim this truth. What
he had seen was intended to prepare
him for such proclamation. He could
with the utmost confidence go among
the people and assure them by the
vision and the words of the angels,
and so he could awaken their faith in
God.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1899-08-12

KNOWLEDGE (Nerses 13 and 10
Ezekiel was directed to go to his people
with more than a prediction. He is
appointed also to instruct them, and
the very words are put into his lips
by which this shall be done. This is
a rare occurrence. Generally the
prophets and apostles used their own
language, but when the message was
delicate and highly important they
were required 20 repeat precisely what
had been delivered G. Peter i:2D. SO
here in the plainest possible mannnr
the prophet is told to inform Israel of
the change that should be wrought
in their minds when that came to pass
which had besp foretold The nation
would know that God had done it. They
had been slow to understand His do
ings. Notwithstanding His marvellous
interpretations they had forgotten and
turned away to follow idols. Now,
having gone down to the very depths
of ruin, when they are brought up they
will be cured of idolatry because con-
WINGED that their God only saved them.
All this became history. After their
return from Babylon the Jews ceased
to serve the gods of the heather.

Italy. The grand weekly problem for
 Italians is, then, to select their num- bers. There is "Libro dei Sogni," or Book of Dr-ams, that assigns a number for every possible event. As, of course, , the numbers in the "Libro dei Sogni'' are as likely to turn up as any others, an occasional win is scored, and thus absurd credulity in the matter is fos- tered. An authentic instance of this happened quite recently in Florence. An event had taken place of which all Tus- cany was speaking
 | A German student, coming home from the theater, was crossing one of the principal squares in Florence toward midnight, when he was addressed by a rnysterious-looking yelled lady, carrying a baby. Stating that she had dropped her purse, she prayed him to hold the baby while she searched for it. The student complied, and the lady, pretend ing to be looking about, soon disap- peared in the darkness, and has never been heard of So much public atten- tion was directed to the circumstance that the Nazione, Florentine newspa- per, published list of numbers from the "Libro dei Sogni'' for the next weeks lottery as follows: "A yelled lady, 56; lady accompanied by child, 66, and the age of the child, 3 years" Wonder full to relate, the three numbers came up in Rome no doubt gaining 'terno" for many of the Nazione's readers New York Sun.

THE POPE's GREEN OLD AGE.

It is safe to say even of the very few who have arrived at the advanced life
 of the distinguished patient that none
 can show a better record of self-preser-
 yation against the inevitable changes
 that attend declining years. His con-
 dition is simply one of normal old age
 in it's general and consistent progress
 iveness toward the final destiny that awaits all. The process of dissolution in
 his case is so well balanced with the
 regulated requirements of the compo- nent parts of his organism that there is manifestly no weak point that can at present determine a breakdown in any particular vital center. All the symp- toms point toward general repression of energy throughout the entire body rather than to a crippling of any spe- cial part.
 The organic dispositions that associate themselves with the decline of life are in strict accordance with the purposes of nature in harmonizing her means to her ends. Thus, as has been often said, timely senility is not strictly a disease, but an evolution toward easy death It is the gradual dropping of the curtain when the last good night must be said.
 The time when this comes must nec- essarily vary with the manner of life of the individual. If the fuel is burned wastefully in early life there will be less for fire at the end. Disease, dissl- patton and bad heredity also strike the balance early. It is the question how soon, how rapidly and how unequally the senie signals in the shape of fbrinous deposit show themselves in the different important organs. When once begun this crippling process is al- ways progressive. Under one cireum- stance man may be old at forty and young at seventy. The punishment al- ways fits the crime, and nature, cruel as she may seem in the beginning, is in the end always just. The green old age of his holiness carries with it the evidence of a well ordered life, against which there can never be any refutirg New York Herald.
