. The Child's Suggestion.

Although there was a confederacy
that united Samaria and Syria against
the common foe, the latter country
frequently made forays into the for
mer's territory. One OF the captives
that Saaman had secured and carried
home as trophy of war was a young
1sraelitish maiden. She was turned
over to his wife as a personal attend
ant When she noticed the great grief
that was caused by this incurable dis
ease. laying hands upon the eminent
soldier of Benhadad II. she suggested
that the prophet in her native land had
power to cure Naaman.
Filled with the true missionary spirit,
recalling that at the very tap root of
her faith was Gods love not merely for
Israel. but the world. the young slave
uttered the word that was to be the
key of her masters salvation as well as
cure. In all probability she was one
who had been instructed by the prophet
and was familiar with the miraculous
deeds that testified to his appointme mt
as the successor of Elijah She saw an
opportunity to testify for her God, and
she did her duty as we ought, for in
every position we have the privilege
given to US to point some one to the
Savior of men.
Recognizing the incurab1eness of the
disease that would soon UNIT him for
his work, by gradually wrecking both
his body and mind. leaving him hope
less and helpless. Naaman's mind was
open to any suggestion of relief that
might come to him.
BY his inattention to the maiden's
message he turned to his sovereign for
assistance, Benhadad II was anxious to
retain the valuable services of hi,
great general, so he dispatched Naaman
loaded with valuable presents. to Jeho-
ram. King of Samaria, requesting tina,
the latter would cure Benhadad's noted
servant Jehoran, who was dependen,
upon the Syrian king for his power
was f1lIed with CONSERVATION because
he feared that Benhadad was seeking
TO pick a quarrel with him by asking
him to perform an impossible. task
since Gel oalS could cure . lepef.
