THE STORY.
<<vITITHIN five days."

k&vET IL HIN I'VE udyS!
w Judith repeated the words over
and over again to herself, and with
each repetition the terror of the stu
alton grew upou her.
the great king Nebuchadnezzar, had
many months before surrounded the
city of Bethulia, and had cut off food
supplies and water, until now the city
is in sore straits, and at last the gov
ernor and officials had given their
word that if relief did not come with
in five days the gates of the city would
be opened and they would go forth
to become a spoil and a prey to Holo-
fernes and his army.
Within five days!"
May" exclaimed Judith, her dainty
sandaled foot coming with a sudden
emphasis to the ground. May, it
must not be-"
Then calling her maid she directed
that Ozias, Chabris and Chants, the
men in authority in the city, be sum-
moned to her presence. And with no
little wonder on their part they
obeyed, for the beauty and virtue of
Judith were known to all in the city,
and her influence was great, not only
among the poor to whom she minis
tered, but among the rich and power
full as well. Something over three
years before her husband had been
suddenly stricken while overseeing his
workmen during barley harvest, and
from that time she had not ceased
to mourn for him, and delighted to
use the gold and silver and the rich
estates which he had left her for
the blessing of those about her, for
she was a devout woman and sought
with all her heart to serve the Lord
her God. So when this report had
reached her ears that the governor of
the city had agreed to surrender the
city to the enemy she lifted her heart
to God in prayer, knowing that he
could deliver. And When Ozias, Cha
bris and Charms appeared before her
she said:
"Who are we that have tempted God
this day, and stand instead of God
among tne children of men? And now
try the Lord Almighty, but We shall
never Know anything. For We cannot
find the depth of the heart of man,
neither can We perceive the things
thai he th5nketh. Then how can We
search out God, that hath made all
these thinge, and know his mind, or
comprehend his purpose? Nay, my

Make known His Loving Kindness

Make Known His Loving Kindness.
When God as blessed us in any
way, we should say SO. It is ingrati-
tude not to do it. Yet there are many
people for whom the Lord has done
great things who never say a word in
praise of His goodness to them. We
may say that God does not mind, that
He does not care for praise, for the
re~cognitions Of earth. He is SO glori-
GUS and hears continually the praise
Of heaven. But He does car for the
gratitude even Of a little child. Let
no heart keep its love unspoken
