Sure enough, there was heard a

worship of the God of Israel.
but how can he delay the build
ing of house to his God? What can
he do with all the gold and silver
which his father David gathered? And
the cedars of Lebanon groan in
their desire to find place in build
ing to David's Cod" and Hiram
sighed within him.
What is that?" he asked as at
that moment a servant interrupted his
reverie. "a messenger from King
Solomon? Show him in at once"
Eagerly Hiram waited while the
courtier entered and made his obei-
sance
Il will hear at once the message
from the son of my friend David"
Without further delay the courtier
unrolled his parchment and read:
ITO Hiram, king of Tyre: Thou
knowest how that David, my father,
could not build an house unto the
name of the Lord his God for the
wars which were about him on every
side, until the Lord put them under
the soles of his feet"
With the beginning of the reading and
the first reference to the building of
a house to the Lord Hiram's face lit
up with a glow, his eyes sparkled with
a new enthusiasm, and he exclaimed
under his breath: Blessed be the
name of the Lord this day which hath
given David a wise son over his
people"
The messenger paused and looked
UP hastily, but being reassured by the
lively interest which Hiram was TAX
ing in his reading, he continued:
Command thou now, therefore, that
they hew me cedar trees out of Leb-
anon"
"The Lord be praised! The Lord
be praised" Hiram cried fervently as
the message was completed. And
turning to his servant he hastily sum-
moned his secretaries and had in
scribed at once a message to King
Solomon, saying:
Il have considered the things which
thou sentest to me for: and will do
all thy desire concerning timber of
cedar and concerning timber of fir"
Which message when Solomon read
he thanked the Lord and took courage
in the great undertaking, saying,
gratefully:
Surely Solomon hath found
friend in the friend of David my
father"

Coffee Finally Had to Go.

The way some persons cling to cof.
fee even after they know it is doing
them harm, is a puzzler. But it is an
easy matter to give it up for good.
when Postum Food Coffee Is properly
made and used instead.
A girl writes: Mother had been
suffering with nervous headaches for
seven weary years, but kept drinking
coffee.
Zone day asked her why she did
not give up coffee as cousin Of mine
had done who had taken to Postum.
But Mother was such slave to coffee
she thought 1t would be terrible to
give it up.
Finally, one day, she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morning
while she was drinking Postum so
freely and with such relish / asked for
a taste.
"That started me on Postum and
now drink it more freely than ! did
coffee, which never comes into our
house now.
IA girl friend OF mine, one day, saw
me drinking Postum and asked II it
was coffee. ! told her It was Postum
and gave her some to take home, but
forgot to tell her how to make 1t.
'The next day she said she did not.
see how could drink Postum. found
she had made it like ordinary coffee.
So told her how to make 1t right
and gave her q cupful / made, after
boiling it fifteen minutes. She said
she never drank any coffee that tasted
as good, and now coffee is banished
from both our homes" Name given
