S-COmment by Rev. 5. III. Doyle.
Topic.-Great men of the Bible. What
Elijah teaches us.-II Kings H. 1-12;
Matt. XII, IA; Jas. v, II, IS.
Elijah the prophet was a native Of
Tishbeh, in Gilead. His parentage and
early history are unknown, nor have
we any systematic account of the life
of Elijah such as we have Of Joseph,
Moses and David. "He bursts upon
our view without previous notice and
disappears by a miracle" His life and
character were noted for their bold
ness and ruggedness. God used him
nightly in the reign of the wicked
sternness of character that should
adorn his people in the midst of pc
RODS of great moral decline among the
people of the world.
1. Elijah's translation I'll Kings ii,
1-12). Elijah was one of the two men
in the worlds history who have passed
from this life without tasting death,
God translated Enoch and Elijah alone
, of the worlds inhabitants, and Elijah
had the further great honor of appear
ing with Moses upon the mount at the
time of the TRANSPORTATION of Christ,
But while God does not remove His
people generally In any miraculous
way He does remove from them the
fear of death, which amounts prac
tically to the same blessing. When we
can say with the psalmist, Yea.
though / walk in the valley Of the
shadow Of death, / will fear no evil
for Thou art with me; Thy rod and
Thy staff they comfort me- we are
equally blessed with Elijah. Death.
the greatest enemy of mankind, has
been overcome by Christ. He burst
the bonds of death asunder and gives
His people freedom from its fear and
dread
g Elijah and John the Baptist
Matt XII, 14. OF John the Baptist
Jesus said, IF you will receive it this
is Elijah which was for to come"
John, however, was not Elijah rein
carnated, and we find here no support
for the reincarnation doctrine or the
false claims of such men as Dowie.
John resembled Elijah in life and char
acter. His age was similar, morally
and spiritually, to that of the prophet,
and God used his stern boldness to
call His people to repentance. Our
own age is not without some tendencies
toward the effeminate Injuries and
easy morality of those of Elijah and
John, and we may do well, therefore,
to cultivate the stern qualities that
they possessed.
3. Elijah's faith GAS. v, IT, 49,. By
faith, through prayer, Elijah control
led the rain for three years and a
half! He prayed that it might not rain
and 1t rained not He prayed for rain
and ''the heaven gave rain and the
earth brought forth her fruit" Yet he
was but "a man, subject to like pas
sions as we are" He was nothing,
but his faith was strong in God, who
is everything. The prayer of faith"
still prevails, for God is 'the same
yesterday, today and forever" There
fore let us take advantage of the
blessings and privileges vouchsafed to
us upon the conditions of faith and
prayer.

SINGS ITS DEATH SONG.
A Peculiar Bird Found In the Jun-
giles of south America.

giles of south America.
There is a queer bird in the jungles
Of northern South America which is
called the 'paujf' by4 the natives, but
is known to science as the galeated
curasson. 1t is chiefly remarkable be-
cause it sings its own death song.
1t does not really sing, but makes a
deep humming noise which sounds
very much like the Spanish words "El
muertO esta aqui' (the corpse lies here.
at is while uttering this lugubrious
chant" said a South American travel
err, shat the 'paujp usually meets its
death, for the hunter can then easily
track It to its retreat, and 1t falls a
victim, as the Indians say, to its own
death song"
II the 'paujf' gets suspicious it i'm
mediately ceases humming, and that is
sure indication to the hunter that
the bird has seen him or scents dan
ger. In such case the only thing for
the sportsman to do is to remain per-
fectly still. The bird may become re
assured after waiting awhile and again
begin to call, ''The corpse lies here" 1t
can then be cautiously approached and
killed.
If 1t is only wounded the "pauji' usu-
ally escapes, though it cannot fly much
better than the ordinary domestic
fowl. 1t is very fleet of foot and will
outrun the hunter until it is lost in the
dense underground Of the jungle.
In the mating season the male .'pauji''
is the most pugnacious of birds and
will fight its own kind whenever 1t
meets them. Often the fight ends in
the humiliation of both combatants.

HOW to Cure stinrs.

All sorts of stings, whether from
wasps, bees, hornets or bumblebees,
should be sucked to remove as much
poison as possible; then have slice of
acid fruit, apple, tomato or peach, or a
crushed berry or grape, either ripe or
green, bound lightly to the wound. If
the pain is very severe after a minute
take off the fruit, wash the sting in
warm water and battle it well in alco-
hol; then wet folded linen rag in eli
Their alcohol or vinegar and bind on the
sting. If neither alcohol, vinegar nor
fruit of any sort is at hand try bruis-
ed plantain leaf. Change the applica-
ton, whatever it is, every ten minutes
until the pain subsidies.

HOW to Keep Them clean ard Econ

Once a week is often enough to wash
the refrigerator if ordinary care is Civ
en- to the articles stored in it, says the
New York Herald. Take everything
from the interior, put the shelves i'll a
large dishpan and wash in hot soap
suds in which a pinch of soda has been
dissolved. Rinse with cold water, wipe
perfectly dry and put outdoors in the
sun to dry for an hour. Wash the sides
of the refrigerator in the same way,
using a flexible wire~for the drain pipe
and skewers for the corners and
grooves; also pour warm water in the
waste pipe to remove the slime that ac-
cumulates from the ice.
In getting ice 1t is a matter of econ
omy to put in as large piece as posi-
BILE at first in order that the refrigera-
tor may become thoroughly cooled;
then keep full, or nearly SO, as a small
quantity of ice will melt much faster

than Is needed on account of it's melt
ing so much more rapidly. Covers and
doors should always be kept tightly
closed. Food must never be placed in
the refrigerator until thoroughly cooled
as it occasions moisture. Neither should
food be kept in the refrigerator with
out ice and with cover and doors closed
Chemicals of every kind must be kept
out of the icebox, and all hooks should
be heavily timed.
| Ice should always be washed and laid
carefully in the icebox, not thrown in
Most housekeepers contend from their
own experience that ice wrapped In a
thick coating of newspapers lasts lon
ger than when left uncovered, but the
manufacturers say that prevents the
free circulation of cold air. The infer
ence is plain. If the saving in the ice
bill is the main object to be achieved

! weather, there is danger of the food

she has simplified matters by covering
