a progressive occupation and enlishten- ment of his inner life by the spirit of the Lord.
 It matters Iittis whether this divine cui- ture of the young king was mediate or irn- mediate. Samuel may have been his men tor. as he was saufs. The Bethlehemite lad may have made frequent piigrimages to Ramah; or. like Saul. he may have taken a course in one of the divinity schools. These mediate methods are in no way in- imical to the immediate influence of the Spirit of the Lord which came upon David at the time of his anointing-from that day forward.
 However that may be. when the hour of coronation came. the kingiy office was matched by kingiy character. The mani fold and imperative exactions of an office which has no exact parallel in history. wero met by a versatile character devei- oped and inured to meet those exactions. David could both compose battie-hymns for his army and in person lead to battle He could make law and administer IL He could maintain the equilibrium between the reciuse and the man of affairs With q master hand he changed the whole face of Hebrew history.
 samuers anointing of David was the last official act--the golden climax of long. useful. and honorable career.

To-day, however, as civilization is

z Good Roads. =


In answer TO inquiries from the
United States. Consul General Robert
p. Skinner, OF Marseilles, furnishes
the following information relative to
the effect of wayside trees on French
roads:
ut is proposed to plant trees
along the roadsides of New York
State in order To keep the moisture
in the road and prevent ravelling.
and the question has been raised
whether or not the roots OF such
trees may spread out underneath the
road surface and eventually create
great damage in severe climate
where there are extremes OF heat and
cold. While French roads are not
always bordered with shade trees.
they are so very frequently. and my
information Is that the trees are
planted not only for furnishing shade.
but in order to protect the roads
themselves against the effects OF ex-
cessive heat and drouth. 1t Is be-
lieved that the long, dry summer sea-
son is much more inimical to roads
than severe cold. The chief oficer In
charge OF the public roads In Mar
settles Is of the opinion that. on the
whole, New York roads would be
benefited IL bordered with trees. sug-
gesting, however. that only such
should be planted as have vertically
descending roots.

Had seen the Light,

One of our popular New England
lecturers tells this 9musing story:
A street boy of diminutiye stature
was try.2g to sell some very young
kittens to passers-by. One day he
accosted the late Rev. Phillips Brooks,
asking him to purchase, and recon-
mending them as good Episcopalian
kittens. Dr. Brooks laughingly re-
fused, thinking them too small TO
be taken from their mother. A few
days later a Presbyterian minister who
had witnessed this episode was asked
by the same boy TO buy the same kit

that they were faithful Presbyterians.

week that they were Episcopal kit.

"Yessir.' replied the boy quickly,

then, sir."-Everybody's.

BORAX IN THE DAIRY.
a Matter Of Profitable Interest to the
Farmer and Dairyman.

The problem OF keeping sweet all
the utentils used in connection with
milk and cream selling, and butter
making. has been a serious one with
the farmer.
He has come TO realize fully that
the slightest taint or hint of staleness
left in can, tin or churn may ruin
a whole output; that the taint which
Is left is ia the form OF bacteria
which grow and multiply in milk o.
butter, producing disastrous results.
The farmer has learned that hot
water won't rinse away the greasy
residue in dairy utensils.
He has learned that soap leaves a
residue OF its own which Is, IL any,
thing. worse than the milk or cream
residue, and it is little wonder that
there has been a constant clamor for
a dairy cleanser and sweetener tina.
will meet modern requirements.
A few OF the largest creamery es-
tablishments have called experts into
consultation on this problem and have
with this scientific aid hit upon a
product of nature which exactly fills
the bill-borax.
Scientists have long known borax
as cleanser, a sweeteEer and an
antiseptic destroyer of bacteria and
germ growths. Destroys all that s
harmful and promotes and preserves
freshness, sweetness and purity, re-
heving the dairyman and dairy house
wife of drudgery and of needless
work and worry.
It's cheapness and value should gre
1t first place in the necessities OF
every dairy.
The cows udder is kept In a clean,
healthy and smooth con iition by
washing 1t with borax and water, a
tablespoonful of borax to two quarts
OF water.
This prevents roughness and sore
ness or cracking teats, which make
milking time a dread to the COW and
a worry to the mixer.
The modern cleanser OF all dairy
utensils consists of-one tablespoon
full of borax to every quart OF water
needed. Remember tablespoonful
equals four teaspoonfuls.
Be sure that you get pure borax.
To be sure, you must get "20 Mule
