BIBLES STUDIES.
11NHILE Ahab was king of Is
~ rael, Jehosaphat succeeded

nOHILE Ahab was king of Is
~ rael, Jehosaphat succeeded
10 the throne of Judah. He had the
advantage that his parents were
cody people-a great advantage.
As suggested in our last study, the
iniquity and idolatry of Israel react
ed favorably upon Judah, just as
the drunk enness and prohigacy of
parent sometimes reacts upon his
children who perceive his folly and
learn by his mistakes. Moreover
the idolatry of Israel, which drove
it's most sanity characters of all
the tribes to judah, enriched the
the latter nation in moral tone and
character. This included all of the
priests and Levites who were still
loyal to God and to the worship
which he had established.
Encouraged thus, the young king
began a general crusade against
every idolatrous place and custom
in his kingdom. AS Ahab exceed
ed his father Omri as an eyildoer,
so Jehosaphat exceeded his father
Asa as an upholder of the Divine
Law. Indeed we remember that in
Asa's later years he became proud
and self, conscious against the Di-
vine ARRANGEMENTS.

ter's assurance 70 his followers: In
the world We shall have tribulation,
but in me We shall have peace.
But when Messiah's reign shall
begin, all this will be changed and
every wrong act and word ana
thought will receive prompt punish
ment, and every good effort will be
rewarded and encouraged. Thus
the Scriptures declare, When the
judgments righteous dealings) of
the Lord are abroad in the earth,
the inhabitants of the world will
learn righteousness. The blessed
opportunities of that time will be-
long to ali mankind except the
Church. The specially called class
of this Age have the special bless
ing of hearing ears and understand
ing hearts and a call to the heaven
ly portion-the High Calling"
Thus, my dear readers, we see
that our trials and difficulties,
rightly appreciated and accepted,
are blessings for us, because they
thus work out for US far more ex-
ceeding and eternal weight of glory
than the world will receive The
highest rewards for the world will
be revolutionary, earthly-to attain
perfect manhood. Thus we see
Gods provision in Christ to be
eternal human life for mankind in
general, and eternal life on the
spirit plane for the elect church,
and eternal death for those who,
after experiencing to the full Divi ne
mercy and opportunity, shall sin
wilfully.
JEHOSHAPHAT's ONE MISTAKE
Like others, this king, no doubt,
made many mistakes, plumbers, but
his most important mistake was in
affiliating with Ahab, king of Is
rael. There is lesson here for all
of Gods people. "Be not unequal
ly yoked together with unbeliev-
ers"-neither by marriage ties nor
by business partnerships and close
friendships. "Wh at communion
hath light with darkness?"-2 Cor.
6:14-18.
Ahab made war and invited Je-
hoshaphat to go with him. 1t was
expected to be an easy conquest,
but the Lords blessing was not
with it, as Jehos aph at later
learned, escaping barely with his
life. But his still earlier mistake
was in arranging marriage be-
tween his son and the daughter of
Ahab and Jezebel. No doubt he
considered this wise method of ul-
timately re-uniting the two king
doms-but il was worldly wisdom
foolishness-contrary to the wis
dom from above. The Lords dis
approval of Jehoshaphat's fellow
ship with Ahab was indicat ed.
The Prophet was sent to him say
ing: "Shouldst thou help the un-
cody and love them that hate the
Lord? Therefore wrath is upon
thee from before the Lord. -
Chron. 1872.

NuNes CABINS AND COSTUMES.

Two kinds of dwellings are found
among the Nungs of North Tonkin.
Sometimes, like the Thos, the Nung
builds his house upon piles. Again,
he erects it firmly upon the ground,
in the Chinese manner. The domestic
animals are sheltered under the same
roof as the family. A Nung house is,
therefore, not very agreeable place
to visit.
The furniture is exceedingly prim-
tive. The Nung reposes on a simple
sleeping mat. If he has bench or a
table it is of the toughest construc.
ton.
The Nungs live in small villages
composed of eight or ten families
They choose the sites of their ham
let's with more taste than the Thos
and there are more evidences of in
dustry about their habitations
A man of the Nung tribe is attired
much like a Chinaman. Over his
cotton trousers he wears short wide
sleeved blouse of dull indigo blue
color. This garment is collarless, ant
buttons on one sides He braids
his hair in a queue, like a Chinaman
or else rolls it up in coil like al
Annalite but, in either case, conceals
it under turban wound around the
head in an irregular fashion.

FROM A CANADIAN MISSIONARY

The diffident request of this mis-
sionary, who is working so uncomplain-
ingly in the severe climate of the far
Canadian Northwest is, assuredly, de-
serving of attention, especially now
that the winter is approaching.
"My parishioners are Indians, half
breeds and a few white people of diff
ferent nationalities, the last-named be-
ing new settlers in this region. All
are poor. My Sunday collections
amount to from two to three dollars.
With this sum have to feed myself
and the two little horses that use to
