ENDED THE BIBLE READING.
Beginner Resented Wife's Enjoyment
Of His Mistake.

A Kansas City man, who had fol-
lowed stock quotations, football scores
and a form sheets more closely
than he had religious and literary mat
tiers, recently was persuaded by his
wife to read aloud each evening from
the Old Testament to improve the
knowledge of both on Biblical matters.
The man became interested in the
story of the scriptures and read aloud
several evenings with great gusto and
pleasure. One night as he was swing
ing along he read: "And they horse
whipped the beasts"
Hold on!" exclaimed his wife.
what was that?"
They horsewhipped the beasts he
repeated, and continued reading. His
wife got up from her sewing, crossed
the room, looked over his shoulder and
read:
"'They worshiped the beasts
There" she said, II knew the word
horsewhipped was not in the Bible.
He! He!"
The man closed the Bible with q
snap, clasped the snap, and that con-
cluded the readings for all time.

His Rat Trap.

Omaha has a youngster who IL an
amateur electrician, and who has a
very ingenious way of killing rats.
The prying rodent is caught in an or
binary trap, the bottom Of which is
covered with tin. The Omaha boy
has a small dynamo of his own manu-
facture and one wire connecting with
the dynamo is fastened to the tin lin
ing of the trap and another is thrust
into the prisoners cell. The well
known propensity Of a Gagged rat to
do battle asserts itself, and he seizes
the wire between his teeth. In so do
ing he makes the mistake of his life.
The circuit is complete, his jaws close
on the wire with q death grip, and
without a squeak, and almost without
a CULVER, he passes into a state where
he will bother mankind no more.

"The fellow who lives next door,"

"Oh, to keep an eye or 'im," replied
the boy cautiously.

confident answer.

THE STORY.

and as he spoke the gate keeper thrust
back the two women who sought en-
trance to the palace. With a look of
pain and disappointment they skunk
back into the shadow of the gateway,
and watched with envious eyes the
groups of people passing to and fro
through the gate. Their garb pro-
claimed them as belonging to the
poorer class, and the certain condi-
tons of dress and bearing indicated
plainly their character and the ques-
tionable manner of their life, and had
not the gate keeper been busy with
the constant stream of people passing
in and out of the palace grounds
he might have been curious to
know what could have brought them
thither. And while they made no fur

opens. and king and leaders from all

which that animal is subject.
All his remedies are the result OF
experiments made to a life or re-

ing his profession.

SERMoNETTE.

ANA tney reared thS kH'gI
for they saw that the wisdom
of God was in him, to do judy
ment."-The surest pathway to
power over the hearts of men is
that which runs parallel to the
Divine will and purpose.
Power over men which finds
its source in God is first pure,
next unselfish, and lastly up
lifting.
There Is power of men over
men and there is power from
God owe men.
The first finds its source in
human ambition; the second
comes from union with God.
There is no grander privilege
or greater responsibility than
that of power over ones fell
lows, If the source and inspira-
ton of such power rests In God.
Solomon because of his natu-
raj gifts, the resources at his
command and the station which
he occupied had great power
over men, a power which he
might have used wholly for self
ish ends.
But into the devout heart OF
the young king there came
realization of a higher power to
which even a king must bow,
and In a sublime spirit of mod
esty and genuine humility he
puts a true estimate on the linn
itations of human attainments
and abilities, and sees in the
unlimited resources of God the
complement of all human en-
deavor.
Men in power are feared by
the people, either for the evil or
the good which they may do. II
evil, then a fear inspired by dis
trust and a sense of injustice.
If good, then a fear born Of an
appreciation of that righteous
ness and justice which operates
to the benefit and blessing of
all alike.
AS in the days of Solomon, SO
is it true to-day, that men are
quick to recognize the qualities
of genuine goodness In those
who are an authority.
And notice, it is the simple,
common Incidents of life which
reveal the true qualities of a
man. Have you not often won
dered why so ordinary an Incl
dent was chosen by the inspired
writer of the book to prove the
wisdom Of Solomon? There
must have been a multitude of
incidents more striking and
more profound, but out of all,
this story of the two harlots
and their offspring is chosen.
And yet what did it reveal to
the people as perhaps no other
incident could have done? First
Of all, that wisdom born of God
is not SO high or Sc mighty as
to be above the commonest
things of life, o SO exclusive
as to shut out the weakest and
meanest and lowest of Gods
creatures from share in his
righteousness and justice. And
in the next place, that wisdom
from God goes deeper than mere
external evidence, touching the
very ~mainsprings of life, and re-
vealing what the deceitfuI heart
is striving to cover up. Truly,
the "foolishness of God Is wiser
than men; and the weakness of
God is stronger than men,"
