be studied as a whole. The parts are inter dependent and shed much light upon each other. The shilly -shally browsing in the Bible practiced by many readers cannot possibly afford any coherent appreciation of the book The reading of so many chapters con- secutively or of so many verses and the reading of the Bible in the regular order is all of very doubtful value. Valuable beyond all estimation as it is, even the instruction from the pub- pit Is open to the objection that it lacks continuity and occurs only at long intervals. Of course, as stated the preached word is indispensable and is the source of spiritual life, but it is not systematic study of the va ried and many sided subject matter of the Bible. At most it can touch only slight section of the Bible
 ATTRACTIVE LITERATURE
 Viewed from the standpoint of mere literature, from the standpoint of ex- pression, or it's form and grace the Bible may be made wonderfully attractive. It is not dictionary; 1t Is not a grammar; it is not set paper. formal and dry, for a Sunday school convention. It both

Persia Exports Opium

Rotterdam, Netherlands, July 2e.-The prohibition of the import of opium in China has been responsible for big ex- pension in Persias trade with the Dutch East Indies. According to the report for 1915, drawn up by the Persian consul at Rotterdam that country's exports to the Dutch colonies in 1913-14 increased about skiold. viz: from some s1s5, 600 to H,1S6.00o. Persian opium is now exported in the Netherlands East Indies, being thence re-exported to Formosa, making up practically the whole of the total fig- ure mentioned.

This monstrous perversion of language can be easily matched with that of other so-called students of the Bible.
 Especially should great caution be em- ployed in the full interpretation of this splendid pictorial language.
 picture. an analogy however apt. will not always serve as a basis for heard preachers base a whole system of theology upon the strained expansion of figure of speech, upon allegory.
 By all means should pregnant passages of scripture be committed to memory. In the very act of memory there is a discriminating analysis of the meaning not to be learned from the books or teacher.
 Further the ability to make a pointed quotation from the Bible has saved many a soul, and more than one said. Get thee behind me, Satan" Still another advantage of having the Bible by heart lies in the opportunity the possession of 1t affords one for sudden flashes of in- sight into the meaning at moments of meditation and prayer.
 To get the most abiding results from the Bible, make the student study the Bible itself. Good aids are desirable, but nothing supplies the place of the Book. To be able to place a passage is great help in remembering it. This study of the original leads also to in- dependence of opinion.
 The higher criticism is not a bug-bear to tremble at. But foolish and un- learned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife, The Bible it should be remembered is neither a geology nor an astronomy. It is man g spiritual chart. Grant that God made the universe, 'the words that silent swing through the deeps of space and glorious inmate man." and what matters the process of making?
 THE POWER OF GOD
 Above all other considerations must we ever teach the Bible as the power of God under salvation. We must teach it prayerfully and meekly, as well as thoughtfully and critically. We must study it to see what is in it; to believe it. and not to pick it to pieces. It is a word without life unless breathed upon by the quickening power of the Holy Spirit. "He shall glorify me-" says the Lord of the Holy Spirit flor he shall take of mine and declare it unto you" Only with the aid of this gracious power hat the Bible the savor of life, it is a refining flame. Only with this spirit it is profitable for doctrine, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. Only by this precious influence can come the two factors that are indispensable to all profitable Bible study, on the one hand the earnest, jealous teacher who is keenly alive to the responsibility and high privilege of working for God s
