TOO ACCURATE A PICTURE
Colored Mans Interest in Science Proved to Be Good Deal
 Personal.

A colored man, having heard of the wonderful powers of the X-ray, called on a scientist one day for more particulars and said:
 Say, boss, they tell me there is a machine that will enable one man to look right froo another man."
 q believe there is something of that kind" said the scientist.
 Then" said the negro, Eff I done had chicken for supper would they be able to see it?'
 No doubt they could,' assured his friend.
 Well, here's what I done come to ax yuh." said the colored man, look ing worried, "do you suppose they could get good enough likeness of de chicken to enable de ownah to recog- nize him?"

Very Bio Handkerchief.

MT. Frederick Vile. the author of that much-discussed book, Men Around the Kaiser" tells some excel lent stories about a number of we'll known Germans.
 Dr. Paul Ehrlich, the famous scien- tist, had a habit in his younger days, says MT Vile of collecting any pieces of old linen he found about the house with which to clean his scientific in struments, his microscopic slides, and so on. Cast-off shirts and old hand kerchiefs were his specialties, and he used to stuff them all into his capaci- ous pockets so as to have them handy whenever he required them.
 At a public lecture one hot day Dr. Ehrlich perspired freely, and wanting to mop his brow, he put his hand into the nearest pocket and grasped what he thought to be handkerchief. He tugged and tugged, and it came out and came out until he had exposed to the full view of his astonished au- dience a complete nightgown belong ing to his wife.-Pearson Weekly.

Then He Pulled Him Out

Chancellor David Lloyd-George, one of the best known figures in England, tells this story at his own expense: "A man saved some one from drown ing and was given a public testimoni- al. When, after the mayor had sung the mans praises, he was called upon to reply, he said: Really, I have done nothing to deserve this reward l saw the man struggling in the water. and as no one else was near by l saw he would be drowned if I didn't save him. So I jumped in, swan to him turned him over to see that it wasn't Lloyd-George, and then pulled him out"

Obedience tc ,-aW.

The conditions laid upon Joshua were: f1) Confidence due to this prom ise of the presence of Jehovah (v. 5) The personal pronoun T" is used seven times in these nine verses as though God would make confidence doubly assured But confidence alone was not enough, hence the necessity of courage" (v. 0. Strength is due to confidence and Quietness, Isa 90; 15. but courage is the active principle which is the evidence of our strength and courage. Conquest was not alone conditioned upon courage (v. @, but also upon the sure foundation of the word and oath of Jehovah But strength and courage are maintained by obedience to law whether it be physical, civil or spiritual, hence the words of verse ', the possession of this land depended upon absolute un- flinching, inyariable adherence and ob- seryance of the law, which Moses my servant commanded" There is in these last words the suggestion that Moses had best served and led Is- rael because he was the close per scnal servant of Jehovah. This thought must undoubtedly have remained vivid and potent factor governing the life of Joshua in the conduct of his newly appointed office.

Confidence and Authority.

But Jehovah never leaves his own (v. 5, Matt. 28;20 nor does he leave man to blind fate or fortuitous cir cumstances. Therefore we read in verse s the counsel of Jehovah as to the method whereby Joshua and Is- rael may prosper" (v. D or according to the margin do wisely" viz, they shall mediate upon the books of the law. This verse is enough for the entire class session. The leader, be he preacher or teacher who has any doubt about the word of God. or stands dumb before the empty tomb had better seek new vocation for he is the apostle of a dying, disinte- grating class or church and a decad- ent faith. The origin of man, the mystery of life, the destiny of the soul, demands the voice of confidence and authority not of uncertainty and doubt. True prosperity and wisdom are conditioned upon our taking the word of God as the man of our coun- sel the light of our path, our daily meditation The definite result of such a course is set before Joshua and in addition he was promised the mpanionship (v. g of Jehovah every step of the way. It is interesting in this connection to remember that Joshua was associated with Moses in the first experience of war in the his tory of this young nation.
 Conclusion. The greatest lesson be- fore us at this time is that of contnu- and important as Moses has been dur ing his 40 years of leadership, yet he was not necessary. The instrument of divine deliverance, direction and discipline, yea, the voice of God to Is- rael, the receiver of their complaints and of their confessions, yet now he has been removed. What a tremen- dous blank he must have left. Yet Israel is to go forward, there is to be no halting in its progress. God had been training men for 40 years, one of whose faith failed not at the sight of the giants, one who had fellowship with the old and is now to face the new. We recall the words of John Wesley. inscribed upon his memo rial tablet in Westminster abbey God buries his workmen, but carries on his work" Each individual in the long succession of leaders has his ap- pointed task, and as he is loyal com pletes that task thereby preparing the way for new leader. The abiding principles that condition each mans success are loyalty to the past, and implicit, obedient following of God along the new pathway as Joshua said, "Ye have not passed( this way before"

 Now it came to pass (v D. Things do not happen in the kingdom of God, they come to pass" This world, na- tions, families or individuals were not set in motion by creator who has gone off neglectful of his creatures, nor has he left them to blind fate or intiexible law. Attention IS also drawn to the time, after the death of Moses"
 The call was clear and unquestion- ed for the Lord "spake.' Our high est responsibility is to that call which comes from the highest source of au- thority. This call came in the time of great need, Israel is without a lead CT. Then follow the first words of Jehovah to this newly chosen leader (v ? and which constitute his charge, Moses my servant is dead, now, therefore arise" This suggests a prayerful attitude on the part of Joshua, but in no way is it to be con- strued that Moses was a hindrance eO AIlo IOI W al U IlldI ClI Ol lIG peOpIc Ol God. Rather, that Moses work was completed and on the basis of his work an advance~ was to be made. Moses brought Israel under g gov ernment of God, he nationalized Is- raeL Joshua is called to conquest. Verse three reveals the scope and the assurance of success in this new era, and notice, it is based upon Gods word, "as I said unto Moses" This charge is two-fold, Gods covenant on the one hand, and the conditions or terms of the agreement on the other hand. Verse four tells of the bound aries of this new kingdom. It is sad to remember that several hundred years elapsed before the time when under David, Israel approximated these borders With tAe:n !n this ad- vance was to be Jehovah's presence even as he had accompanied Moses.
