THE STORY.

MOT only had the religious life Of
~ King David been quickened by the
bringing of the ark to Jerusalem but
that of the whole nation as well, and
the king found new delight and pur.
pose in the performance of his relig-
ious devotions as he came to realize
how the people looked to him as ex-
ample and leader. and were pleased
to follow him in q closer observance
Oi the Mosaic law.
The sad tragedy connected with
bringing up the ark had stirred the
nation profoundly, and the depression
which had followed gave place later
to more profound reverence for God,
for David had corrected his own mis-
apprehensions regarding the incident
and had completed the task OF bring

placing it within the holy of holies in
the tabernacle. Thus he had reassured
the people.

joyful procession that danced before

its journey And what a new mean.

had come as we have said, revival in
the heart of the king as well as in the
hearts Of his people, so that the obli

faithfully performed by all the people
the king taking delight in leading the
people in this respect.
One day after King David had been

The News Bureau understands that N. L. Amster is preparing to bring out another copper property.
 It Is located in Montana, 70 miles north of Butte. Before purchasing it MT. Amster. had it examined by three of the leading mining engineers. and they all reported favorably.
 MT. Amster is not In favor of large capitalizations. He does not believe in making his money on the promo ton end, but in the appreciation in the stock. The new property will have but 8o,000 shares outstanding. and what stock is sold will be put out at s5 per share. with no commis- sion to anybody. This will pay for the property, expenses in connecuon with it's requirement, and place $1OO,- 900 cash in the treasury.
 There will be no public offering of the stock, but we understand that, unsolicited, Mir Amster has already received applications for considerably more stock than be cares 10 sell
