the harvest of disloyalty he had been sowing was ready to be reaped.
 Devid Is pleased at the signs of re- ligious fervor in his wayward son. The fathers heart, ingenious and devout, beats fast as he hears the proposition of the young prince to go to holy He bron, and pay the vow he had made to God in the days of his exile He will not put a straw in his way. On the contrary. he dismisses him with his benediction.
 The last touch of strategy on the part of Absalom Is to associate with himself 200 of the chiefs of Church and State in his pilgrimage to the shrine of the patriarchs. He will add. whether they intend it or not. the prestige of their names to his cause. Comuromised already, the probability Is strong they will cast their fortunes with the revolt.
 By means of a cordon of trumpeters, skillfully posted, Absalcm's corona tion Is telegraphed in a single day throughout every tribe of the nation. It is a coup de- main a master stroke of policy. Multitudes flock to the standard of the idolized rebel. The con- spiracy has undoubted elements of strength. But its greatest acquisition Is in the person of Ahithophel David's Prime Minister and confidential coun- Sellor-a cunning ana experienced prince of statecraft.

A son at war with his father! Pitt full sight! Alas! not uncommon. If every boy whose purpose runs counter to his fathers pious ambition concern ing him was to literally take up arms, 1t would look as if the days of civil war had come again.
 David's sorrowful retreat is emble- matic of Jesus Via Doloroso. "DavId's light is described with a minuteness to which we have no parallel in the history of 8 single day, except that of which this was the type, when the son of David, betrayed by his own familiar friend, went out by the same path, bearing his reproach.'
 If Absalom is the incarnation of ilial ingratitude, David certainly stands for culpable parental negligence. the treatment of his children. He was lax and indulgent. The consequences. distressing and disastrous. should be noted in every parents handbook.
 The incidents of the retreat arc in- dexes of character. It may be difficult for us to decide whether David was absolutely candid In his attempted and apparently generous dismissal of Ittai. or was only testing his loyalty. There can be no doubt, however, of the fidel- ity of this foreigner. His fervent att testation reminds us of Ruth's to Naomi. The faithfuIness of this alien | Is in striking contrast with the infdel- lty of the son.
 Dsvid's faith and resignation shine resplendent in the incident of the ark. He will not repeat Saurs shameful ex- posture of the nations sacred palladium. Memorable are his words to Zadok: Carry back the ark of God into the city. If shall find favor in the eyes of the Lord, He will bring me again, and shew me both it and His habita- tion. But if He thus say, I have no de- light in thee, beh old, here am I: let Him do to me as seemeth good unto Him."

 Many interested persons. including DsAntors from ali parts of the county were present at the exhibition. Only one man was used to operate the big machine. and only one side of 1t was operated The suction nozzle on the machine picked cotton and picked 1t eAean, leaving the bare stalk stand ang in ths ground. The exmoition continued for more than two hours and much cotton was picked, although t was not the intention of the operators to make a record as 10 the amount of cotton gathered from the held. Various tools were tried on the machine. which took vp much of the time This was done hs give those present an Idea of the Vgorktngg of the machine
 Another point in favor the cot Son picker was the fact tha lt picked Florodora cotton. which Is regaroed as the hardest cotton to pick in 6outhern neldA This cotton sticks k the boIla, but 1t failed to stick Shere whea the cotton picking ma chine came in contact wlth II. tt S-as simply sucked out of the bolls Ss clean as the human hand could Soiek il.
