which none Of the Egyptian wise
men could interpret With apollo
gies for his neglect. the bullet told
the king the dream experiences Of the
baker and himself In prison. and of
the wonderful young men who had
correctly interpreted their dreams.
During those two years. Joseph
doubtless waited longingly for some
adjustment Of his case. We doubt
not. that instead of growing faint in
respect to faith in God, he all the
more earnestly laid hold upon the
Lord, realizing that his experiences
must be for good And so they we're.
When Joseph was thirty years old,
Pharaoh sent for him to interpret the
dreams.
PharaOh's Dreams Interpreted.
Pharaoh related his dreams. In
the first he saw seven fine cattle, and
little later, seven very lean cattle,
which ate up the fat ones. but looked
no better In the second dream he
law a fine stalk of corn spring up,
bearing sefen full ears. and then
another stalk with seven withered
ears The latter swallowed up the
! former, bu. looked none the better
Joseph quickly interpreted the
dreams First, however, he dis
tinctly declared that the interpreta-
ton came from God. The two
dreams, he said, unitedly foreshad-
owed seven years of great plenty in
Egypt. followed by seven years Of IA
mine. which would consume the sur
plus o fthe plentiful years. He then
suggested that an agent be appointed
to buuy up all surplus grain of the
seven years of plenty. and store II
for use during the seven years OF
famine.
Pharaoh quickly acceded, and ap-
pointed Joseph himself to the position,
Thus Joseph suddenly stepped into a
place Of highest authority. next to
Pharaoh. In the greatest empire OF
those days. Can we doubt that Gods
hand was In the matter? We may feel
equallf sure that the lessons of Jo-
sepeh's adversely we're preparations
for his subsequent experiences as
Pharaoh's mouthpiece, throughout the
kingdom.
We recall the lesson of week ago
that Josephs experiences we're ty-
pical of those OF Jesus and the
Church The Bible assures us that
the graces of humility and patience
are related to love and loyalty. St
Paul reminds US of this when he de-
clares, "If ye be without chastise-

are called.
The Value of Adyersity.
Jacobs special love for Joseph
manifested itself in favortism, and
quite possibly he would have spoiled
his son, had not Divine Providence
taken him out OF his fathers control.
Many fathers. especially the rich,
have made similar mistakes. Hence
the sons of the rich are not always
a credit to their fathers
Our Heavenly Father makes no
such mistakes. His people are assuur-
ed that trials and difficulties mark
their relationship to God and His
loving care over them. This prov
idential caree is restricted THE
Lord knoweth them that are His"
His special dealings are with His
consecrated people-those who have
entered into covenant relationship
with Him To those alone belongs
tn promise that "all things work to-
gether for good to them that love God
] 10 them who are the called according
to His purpose"
Joseph belonged to this line which
was in covenant relationship With
God. This accounts for Gods dealing
with him rather than with young
men of other families than Abraham's.
The Israelites passed through many
] ftstr Of haiF 20
Gods people. Many Of these they
might have escaped, had they not
come into covenant relationship with
God But then they would have es-
capped certain blessings also. And
Gods blessings always outweigh the
adyersities which prepare for them.
Jewish and Christian Elections.
The Bible declares that the Jews,
and subsequently the Christians. are

AFFECTED, YET A COMFORTER
Genesis 40, i1-May 4.
"GOd giveth grace to the humble."-l
Peter $50.

"UOO gwen EIdCt W Nht hun"iN'
Peter 5;5.
Joseph may well be designated the
model young man of Old Testament
times. There is a distinction to be
made, however. in that he lived be-
fore the time of spirit-begetting, and
hence was merely a natural man not
a Christian. He had inherited a strong
faith in the God of Abraham, who had
promised that ultimately blessing
should come to all people through
acobs posterity. Joseph, who was OF
that family. reverenced God and sought
to live nobly. Whatsoever he did was
with a view to winning Gods ap-
proval.
Josephs faithfulness was rewarded
by his advancement to the highest
position in his masters house-that OF
steward But just at the height Of his
prosperity, calamity came. His mas
ter's wife, angered by his steadfast-
ness TO principle, falsely accused him,
and he was cast into prison, charged
with a henious crime. Yet all the
while, he was innocent, but only God
and himself knew It. The Adversary
had made circumstantial evidence so
strong that Joseph's guilt was not
questioned AS Shakespeare says,
Hell hath no fury like a woman
scorned."
Dreams of Butler and Baker.
Joseph had been in prison for years,
probably forgotten. and might have
continued there indefinitely, had not
something occurred which brought his
case to official notice. When he was
twenty-eight years old, two high Of
ficials were thrust into prison be-
cause the Pharaoh had taken offense
at their conduct One was Pharaoh e
secretary and butler the other was
head Of his culinary department
Joseph, who had become general
overseer of the prison because OF his
faithfulness and intelligence rendered
sympathy to these men. When he
learned that they we're troubled be-
cause of impressive dreams, he volun-
teered interpretations He told the
butler that within three days he would
be restored to favor, but informed the
baker that within the same time he
would be executed. Then, mindful oi
his own case, Joseph besought the
butler. who mhe had encouraged anC
befriended, to bring il before the pro
per authorities. that he might If pos
sible be released.
But alas! The bullet forgot al
about his prisoner friend for two
years. Then the subject was brough
to his attention by Pharaohs' dream
