and again the nation had committed
the folly of going after strange gods.
The drear monotony of her backslid-
ing had nevertheless not shaken the
steadfast devotion of the Friend who
"loveth at all times"
This was Hosea's message to his
time, and to ours. OF God, in His
Son, it is written Having loved His
own, He loved them to the end" The
record is written beyond obliteration
that His mercy is from everlasting
to everlasting" AS the good shepherd
seeks the wandering sheep, so God
yearns over His erring people. Often
Israel forsook Jehovah, but Jehovah
never forsook Israel. Hear the heart

the cords of a man, with bands of

SPEAKING OF BIG FISH

The largest fish ever caught was q
whale shark taken last year off the
coast of Florida. 1t occupied an i'm
portant place among the fish exhibits
at the San Francisco Exposition.
This giant weighed over 10000
pounds when caught. 1t is forty-five
feet long and a full grown man could
stand upright in it's stomach. The
mouth of this whale shark is over
three feet wide and forty-five inches
deep. 1t has several thousand teeth.
The skin is three inches thick and has
no scales.
The monster was captured after a
fight lasting forty hours. A hun
dred and fifty bullets and five whale
harpoons were required to kill the big

The Faithless Wife
No bitterer experience can come
to a man than that which befell
Hosea. His wife was faithless; yet
he remained faithful. The earlier
chapters of the Book of Hosea tell
the tremendous story. We should
read in it's tragic light the fiippant
tales of marital infidelity which are
daily aired in our divorce courts. In
some circles all sense of the helm
BUSINESS of adultery has been lost.
The Book of Hosea reveals it as it is.
Dean Stanley has, with great deli
cacy, recounted the life tragedy of
Hosea:
I'm his own personal history,
he shared in the misery brought
on his country by the profiigancy
of the age. In early youth he
had been united in marriage with
. a woman who had fallen into the
vices which, surrounded her. He
had loved her with a tender love-
She had borne to him two sons
and a daughter; she had thenide-
serted him, wandered from her
home, fallen again into wild Ii
centiousness, and had been car
ried off as a slave. From this
wretched state, with all the ten
derness of his nature, he bought
her and gave her one more
chance of recovery by living with
him, though apart. In his own
grief for his own great calamity
the greatest that can befall
tender human soul he was
taught to feel for the Divine
grief over the lost opportunities
of the nation, once so full of
hone"
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-12-10

The folly of Hosea's wife seems
equal to her sin. Nobody has ever
succeeded in proving that wicked
ness is wise. Every neighborhood
wonders afresh over each new eX-
perience of the boy who plays the
prodigal. 1t is the mystery of folly,
why a young man should desert the
full table of his fathers house for
the husks of a far country. Pru-
dence, sagacity. self-interest, all must
be flung to the winds before boys and
girls can turn their backs on inno-
cency and peace and pure love, and
seek the painted limitations of lifes
good things beyond the pale Of right
eousness and law
There is never a sinner who has
sinned greatly who would not say
with his dying breath that he had
been a fool. There is never man
would advise his son to do the same.
The pleasures of sin are apples of
Sodom' turning to ashes in the
mouth. With all fhis misery, Hosea's
life was happier than that of the
faithless wife who had broken his
heart. Would that there were words
of sagacity to make clear TO youth
that, at their best, the pleasures of
sin are "for a season." There is a
way which seemeth right unto man;
but the end thereof are the ways of
DEATH"
A Nation rs Prodigal
"Out of all the bitterness of his
own woe Hosea extracted comfort for
his nation. He had learned in his
own great and furnace purified soul
the possibility of forgiveness, and of
the love that never 9aileth. In that
crucible he saw alirrored the supreme
truth of the love of God. So he
prophesied to Israel in the figure of
his own sorrow; for Israel had been
