The death of Joseph was a severe blow

in the first place, their physical condition
must be made intolerable. Tasks. bur-
dens, troubles Affections, were heaped

Triumphant Faith.

We can almost see the family working

which then grew i'm the streams of Egypt,
small boat or casket while their silent
tear fell upon. and the silent prayer was
offered that. the boat might be a protec-
ton. as the Egyptians believed the papy-
rus plant was. from the crocodiles, that
the natives worshiped. Having sealed
the basket with a mixture of sand and
pitch that made it waterproof. the brave
mother tremblingly placed the ark in the
river SO that it would be apt to attract
the attention OF the strong-willed princess.
the amazon Queen Hatshepsut. who
afterward completely gathered the reins
of power into her hands,
Miriam watched the frail bark and
waited at a safe distance for the APP
proach of the fair daughter of Pharaoh
to take her morning bath in the Nile.
Wilkinson has shown that in those days
1t was common practice for the women
in Egypt to battle in the Nile and to
share even in public life with the men,
although today in that land they are shut
up in harems. Jochebed had calculated
correctly upon the curiosity as well as
the heart of the princess. for when in re-
Spouse to her command the ark was
brought to her and opened the cry of the
beautiful child. which she readily saw
was a Hebrew babe filed her with COM
passion and determination to save it.
Miriam had watched anNiously the
scene until seeing the look of compassion
that revealed the fact that the young
princess had been touched, as every true
woman's heart IS. by the cry Of help
less baby. she tactfully made the sugges-
tion of securing from among the Hebrew
women nurse for the child.
i The subtle suggestion that the child
be cared for by a Hebrew nurse appealed
to the princess, who had determined to
save the child. although her fathers edict
had caused some broken hearted mother
to place it there. She was not deceived
by the dramatic actions. When the young
Hebrew girl quickly brought woman to
nurse 1t she could see that the Hebrew
woman standing silently before her. gaz-
ing with all the affection of love and
awaiting anxiously her decision was
without doubt the young child's mother.
If as Philo and Artapanus have pointed
out that the princess was married and
childless, although very anxious for c:,.I-
dren, then there is something personal
as well as assurance that Jochebed's faith
had triurnphed. in the orders of Pha-
and Tu:se Il for me. and l will give thee
thy vares."

that God was not only giving back to
