Suggestive Questions the Sunday School Lesson by
The Reverend DIR. Linscott for the
international Newspaper Bible Study Club

true humility always mark of great
ness?
Verses So Solomon's chief desire
was To have wisdom to properly admin
lister the trust committed to him; what
should be our chief desire?
No matter how grave our response
bllities, or difficult our position, is il
absolutely sure that God will give us in
answer to our prayer, the necessary
wisdom and facilities to successfully
administer our trust?
Should all men in positions of public
trust, feel their insufllciency and call
upon God as Solomon?
Verses l0-12.-Why did Solomon's
request please God?
Does God today answer every true or
wise prayer, as he did this prayer of
SolOmons?
Would not all public, and private,
sin and folly be prevented, if men only
relied upon God?
What is some of the evidence, that
God gave Solomon great wisdom?
Verse 13-If our prayers are for
goodness, and not greatness, to be of
oclflCc anu uOI W uc SeINeu, may we
depend that God will give us every
other necessary thing, without our
askingy (See Math. vi: 3l-34) This
question must be answered in writing
by members of the club
Will every true Christian have all
the riches and honor that are good for
him?
Verse l4.-Were Gods promises in
this case conditional upon obedience
and are they so conditioned IN every
case?
Verse 15.-Does communion with
God always make us strong and brave
and generous?

Solomon Dedicates the Temple
| Kings viii.

peeemher 9Th. 1903.

Solomon Chooses WISDOM Kings
iii:4-l5.
Golden Textile fear of the Lord
is the beginning of wisdom. ix:lO.
Verse 4.-What is the chief depend
ence alike of king and a citizen?
What was the chief object of sacri-
fees in those days? Was il to appease
God, or to develop a spirit of giving TO
God: and did they have any idea that
it prehgured the death of Jesus?
What are the chief benefits to the
givers, of money given to the church,
TO missions and to the poor?
Which is the richer man and the one
who has lived TO most purpose, he who
dies leaving no estate, but having Civ
en- to Gods cause $4,000 during his
life, or one who dies leaving an estate
of $4,000 and having given away prac-
tically nothing during life?
Verse 5.-Are such visions or dreams
as Solomon had, unusual in these days
of spiritually minded people?
How could Solomon distinguish this
dream from an ordinary dream?
Does God still give his children a
choice as to what they would like, or
does he choose for them?
If God does not choose for his chill
dren, does he influence them in their
choice, and what is the difference in
the two supposed methods?
Verse 5.-What help is it to us, to be
able to praise God for the lives of our
fathers and mothers?
Do you think it probable that our
fathers and mothers, on the other side,
look back and see their sons and daugh-
tiers here, and take pleasure in their
prosperity?
Verse 7.-Should we, like Solomon,
recognize the hand of God in putting
us into our present positions?
Are great men ever boastful, and is

Concerning "chris.ian Names"

May one interject a gentle protest
against the use of the phrase Chris
tian name" In this connection? The
Romans said praenomen, the French
say prenom, and we have used the
word "forename" for the last 1855
years. 1t is as incorrect to speak of
the Christian name of Jew, for ex-
ample, as it would be hopeless to ex
pect a Christmas card from a Jewish
rabbi. Again, the middle nane of n
Roman was his gentle name-that of
his gems. On the surface, what a pref
ty confusion of ideas It would have
been to have spoken Of the name as at
once gentle and Christian!-Iondon

Where Eat Is Beauty.

In Tunis when man wants to take
another wife he picks out girl and
then carries to her father n pair of
bracelets and a pair of anklets from
one of the other ladies of his house
hold. The bracelets and anklets are
slipped on the young woman, and Sow

tening. She must fatten until she
completely fills the four ornaments or
otherwise the man has right to re-

Satisfied with the Date.
Apparently, however, April 14th is
a satisfactory date to the candidates.
Some of them in City Council who are
sure Of reelection wanted the primary
at an earlier day. but the element
which is trying to break in desired a
little more time for campaigning.
Also, the ward heelers wanted a little
more beer. They cannot expect key
contributions from tho Mayor or Judge
Richardson as those leaders Of tenn
perance are not inclined to set forth
to qucnch the thirst Of the bibulous
voters.
In business circles particularly the
action OF tho committee is very gem
orally Endorsed, inasmuch as tho argu-
ment used against tile early primary
was that quick action would deter the
better class Of men from entering the
race. Even though there is a demand
for hish-class candidates, there Is little
assurance that they will get into the

unless the standard is raised there will
be few changes in the two. branches
