we have come to understand more iuiiJ
in recent years the conditions in the
history of the northern kingdom that
called forth, with the swiftness of the
summers lightning, the prophet OF
Judgment from his highland home on
the east side of the Jordan, bordering
the desert.
We saw in our study at the time of
the division of the nation that the dis
ruption appeared to be the only way
open to preserve the worship of Je-
hovah.
We have studied the apostasy and de-
cline of the faith IN Israel, SO that we
are not surprised to learn that in the
northern kingdom there have been eight
different kings and four changes in the
dynasties-
Ahab, the son of Omri, who has been
called the David of Israel, because of
his ability, being the last of the house
of Omri, as we will see i'll our future
studies, was on the throne of Israel.
In Judah, where the influence of reli-
eion was stronger. there was no change
of dynasty, and four kings had exer-
cised executive power during the same
period that eight had ruled in the
north. where the decline in religious
life had been fearful

Martha Holton looked away from her
hollyhocks and murmured stiffly. How
do you do?' to the tall. thin, homely
young man who swung past. Then she
hastily turded back to the tall. gaudy
rows of blossoms. She had never for
given Jad Hemmers for that caustic
remark made eight years before
"Marthas just like hollyhock, high
and unbending and gauey." Her mother
had told her. laughing at the compli-
ment. Martha hadn't told her that it
was not a compliment, but the reverse.
Her mother even then was on the bed
from which she never arose. and she
lay there five years more-tve years
that Martha spent in loving care. not
realizing till they were over that she
was tWenty-nine and too tired to bend
to the little light things that pass for
social observances. AS for the Saudi
ness, that was gone. At the time of
that unkind remark she had been adj

Israel's Decline.

Ahab had formed an alliance with the
kingdom of Sidon by his marriage with
Jezebel. the daughter of the king
She introduced Baal worship into
Israel; that presented a real danger to
the worship of Jehovah.
Ahab professed to remain loyal to
Jehovah, the God of Israel, and gave
TO each of his children a name that re-
vealed his desire to be worshiper of
Jehovah The insidious danger that the
queen by her efforts for the promuIga-
ton of the worship of Baal introduced
into the nations life was due to the
similarity of the ceremonial forms of wor-
ship of the two faiths. Baal was pre-
eminently the god of agriculture. while
Jehovah was Associated with the no.
madic life of the desert" Baalism was
the antithesis of the morals taught by
the religious followers of Jehovah 1t
gave the greatest license to it's devo-
tees 1t was attractive to the Semetcs
of the day. and soon Israel had lapsed
into the sins it had been created to
avoid.
Politically. socially and religiously
Israel had become like the other ma
tons The rapid advance of Baalism
was due TO the influence of Jezebel,
who had appointed prophets to over
turn the affairs scattered throughout
the land for the worship of Jehovah
and introduce the worship of Baal. She
backed up her efforts by a religious
persecution (the first recorded in his
tory that caused the natives to waver
and threatened the extinction OF the
worship of Jehovah.
1t was in such an hour that Elijah
abruptly appeared upon the arena OF
she history of Israel.

No Women Preach in Norway.

From the London Chronicle.
Norway is the most democratic coun-
try in Europe, yet women are not al
lowed to preach there. Three years
ago Miss Anna H. Shaw, the pastor of
the Methodist Church at East Denton.
Mass, was a delegate to the women's
international convention, held at Chris
tiania On her way to the convention
she visited England. Holland, Germany,
Denmark and Sweden, delivering SER
mons in each of these countries. When
Miss Shaw was announced to preach
in Christiania the authorities prohibit
ed her on the ground that Norwegian
law makes women Ineligible for Office
in the army, the navy or the church.
and the decision on appeal went against
her.
