armies is to US no more than idle cloud

Judges, iii, Is: "The Lord raised

Ehud was a rsler in Israel. He was

about the tribe of Benjamin., to which
he belonged, there were in 1t seven
hundred le~ft-handed men; and yet, so
dextrous had they all become in the
use of the left hand that the Bible says
they could sling stones at a hair
breadth and not miss.
Well, there was a king by the name
of Eglon, who was an oppressor of Is
rael. He imposed upon them a most
outrageous tax. Ehud, the man of
whom I first spoke, had a divine COM
mission to destroy that oppressor. He
came, pretending that he was going to
pay the tax, and asked to see King
Eglon He was told he was in the
summer house, the place to which the
king retired when it was too hot to sit
in the palace. h summer house was
a place surrounded by flowers, and
trees. and s%pringing fountains, and

On the back Of the mirror are seen
birds, flowers, dragons and mythology

When looked at directly, the real
mirror reflects the object in front of it
just the same as an ordinary mirror
does, but when a bright light is re-
hected from it's highly polished surface
on to a screen there is at once depicted
on the screen a bright-lined image of a
dark ground, representing the raised
designs on the back OF the mirror.
