Further Proofs Of Divine Favor Asked
by Gideon.
AS fresh evidence that he was doing
the Divine will. Gideon requested of
the Lord that n wool fleece laid out all
night might be thoroughly wet with
dew. while the ground about 1t might
he dry. The Lord granted the proof
Then Gideon reversed the test. and
asked that the ground might be wet
with deS and the fleece be dry. This
also was granted.
But 1t would not be proper for us
to make similar tests. We have the
Scriptures--records of Gods favor aud
of the Lord Jesus. The Lord would
have us walk by faith in the lessons
already taught, and not by sights and
signs Of our own times.

lsraeI's Unfaithfulness.
When we remember the Divine
promise to defend Israel and to pro
tect their interests, which were al.
earthly. we should also remember that
this protection was dependent. upon
their maintenance Of heart-loyalty and
faithfulness to God. The Lord had
assured them in advance that if they
wandered into idolatry lie would
bring upon them various adversities-
their enemies should reap their crops
etc. Thus we may know the answer
to Gideon's question. The Israeitcs
had not been faithful to their Cove
nant. made with God through their
Mediator Moses at Mt. Sinai.
A proof Of this unfaithfulness is
found in our lesson. Gideon's father
was caretaker Of the groves Of Baa
and Ashtaroth. Their images were
apparently OH his property. Thes,
groves were large posts, significant OF
hnnnr aranta1 thn ipnnDa Tor
was the secret of Israel's subsection
to the Midianites.
Gideon's Great Courage Manifested.
The night following. the Lord made
a further revelation to Gideon. in
structing him TO destroy the idols upon
the property. to overthrow the altar
Of Baal and to build an altar to Jeho
yah, to kill one Of his fathers bullocks
and TO make Herewith burnt offer
ing unto the Lord, using for the pur
pose the wooden pole. or groove"
which formerly did honor to Baal
The work was accomplished i'm the
night; for his father, his brethren and
the villagers would have stoutly re
sisted. had they known of the work
Gideon was very courageous when
he knew that he had been called Of
the Lord.
Conviction that our work Is of Di
vine authority Is a power in any heart.
This is part of the lack today-lack of
faith in God and failure to recognize
a mission that is of God. Much OF the
preaching. praying and good endeavors
are, therefore, journalistic. From such

ELGIN, Tex, Feb. 23.--Firm IN the
conviction that dream she had q
few nights ago was Vision from
heaven telling her she must not
marry, but that she should consecrate
her life to the saving Of souls, Miss
Ethel Bell Sowell, of this town, is
about to enter Baylor university, a
Baptist institution at Waco, to pre-.
pare for mission work in foreign
fields.
II was the night before the day set
for her wedding that Miss Sowell had
the remarkable dream, and 1t was be
fore the assembled crowd Of relatives
and friends in the Baptist church
here, gathered to witness the cere
mony that was to make her the wife
|of Ernest Byars, that Miss Sowell an
nounced in trembling words her de
cision not to marry.
Last night had dream" she
said, $50 clear II was like vision
and am not going to marry.
|dreamt that It would be terrible
mistake to listen to what the selfish
heart in me has been wanting. ! was
told by a voice that went through
and through me that my life must bt
given to bringing light to the ignoran,
and the darkened. Oh! l. know Goo
spoke to me. He calls me to the
missionary field. will not marry
and | am going at once to school tG

make Christians Of those who do no,

In front of her sat her affianced
Ernest Byars, who. when he realized
the meaning of the girls words
bowed his boyish head In grief She
looked at him and for the momen
Iwavered. apparently, In her determin
alton. She repeated In low voice
"I cannot marry--now."
Later. Mr. Byars said he woult
study for the ministry. He has no
given up hope OF winning Miss So
