David would destroy him. Such was
his fear OF David that when he was
brought before the king he fell down
in humble submission, likened himself
to dog and plead that his life should
be spared. To the joy Of the young
man David spoke kindly to him, issued
an order that henceforth he should be
part OF the kings household, eat at
his table and further, that the estates
of Saul should be held in trust for the
benefit Of the young man. It is re-
corded of Mephibosheth that he was
lame. It appears that when a babe
he was let fall from the arms of his
nurse end his feet We're so injured that
he was never able to walk.
Not only the Bible record of many
kings, but the history In general
shows that in so many cases men who
have arisen to leadership have forgot
ten the good intentions of their youth.
the friends who have helped them into
affluence and power and made their
position possible. 1T is therefore
worthy of much commentator when
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1920-08-04

a man in a position Of great power
does remember his friends Of his youth
and those who have helped along the
ladder of his ambition. It Is often
said that many men when reaching
the top Of that ladder take good pains
that it is removed so that others can
not follow quickly after. We even find
that men and women forget their par
ents when they arrive at positions Of
power and wealth, and nothing could
be more ungrateful and ungenerous
than such, a course of action. 1t costs
little in money and nothing in position
to treat handsomely the friends who
have been with one in the days OF
adversely and obscurity. 1t is the
'Christ-nature in the heart which is an
inspiration to deeds Of kindness and
shelpfulness to those who have not had
the best Of fortune in securing wealth
and prominence, as the world reckons
such. .

ARE YOU ON HIS NOTE?

Washington, July 31.--Listing some
Of the items included in the promissory
note Of the democratic party, the re-
publican publicity association, through
its president, Hon. Jonathan Bourne,
Jr., issues the following:
"'The platform of the democratic
party is promissory note, says Gov:
Cox. i shall see that it Is paid In full,
every dollar end every cent. Which
means that, If elected president, Mr..
Cox will exact from the American peo-
pie payment in full for all the ex-
cesses Of democratic misrule included
in that platform. Before the public Is
called upon to write an endorsement OF
that note in November, 1t is well that
the full extent of the proposed obliga-
ton be made known. Here are some
of the items included in the total:
q. Acceptance Of all the obligations
of sthea league OF nations covenant,

Aug. s. Elements of Strength in
Davids Character. 2 Sam 8, ID. ~
\ Sam. 7-3. 2 Sam. 8, II.
Those who have kept in touch with
the lessons Of the lest few weeks are
knowing that David and Jonathan
were great friends. Jonathan was the
( son Of the reigning king, Saul and
would naturally have been against
David who was coming into great pop
ularity before the people and seemed
destined in time to wrest the throne
from the house of Saul This would,
Z OF course, take Jonathan out OF his
succession to the kingship. Despite
the fact that selfishness would have
dictated that David be treated as an
enemy, Jonathan took him to his
heart, helped him to escape the wrath
or Saul. In the last meeting Of the
young men they entered into blood
covenant that they would be faithful
to each other forever. In our lesson to-
day we will see how David kept the
vow made when he was but lad.
In our last lesson, we learned that
David was king over the twelve tribes
Of Israel. 1t would appear that being
q warrior he had defeated his heather
firmly fixed upon the throne. The rec
ord which is given in 2 Sam. 8:15, de-
\ clares that David executed justice
and righteousness unto all his people"
Knowing his record from boyhood up,
one would expect he would act in this
way. In our lesson of last Sunday we
saw how David put religious worship
to the front and brought the ark to
Jerusalem. In the lesson verses of to-
day David spoke to Nathan, the
\ prophet, calling attention to the fact
that while the king was living in sub
stantial and beautiful home, the ark of
the Lord was kept in a place made up
Of curtains. From this thought of
David sprang the idea Of building a
great temple for religious worship in
Jerusalem. Through Nathan God told
David that he, being a man Of blood
and war, would not be allowed to build
the temple but that it should be COM
3 pleted by his successor who should be
4 his son.
Students of history will know that
= It was the custom Of kings who dis
placed others to entirely eradicate from
the land all persons who could by any
possibility claim to be direct descend
ants Of the deposed king. Had there
been dissatisfaction with David the
people could well have turned to one
OF Saul's grandsons to become their
leader in rebellion. For this reason
David is to be praised for remember
ing his friendship vow to Jonathan
and making diligent search for his
children, who might have survived him.
The record shows that David remem-
bering his VOW took measures to find
son of Jonathan. Such one was
located In Mephibosheth, young man
who had kept in hiding for fear that

WHERE BOARD IS NOW CHEAP
Girls in the Mission Schools In China Pay Only SIS Year for
 Their Meals.

It Is refreshing in these days of high prices to learn that somewhere 1t la possible to get ones daily bread and it's accompanlments at low figure. The place is China-Tengschow, in the province of Shantung. There, in the mission school, girl may have three meals day for SIS year.
 The menu sounds strange to the school girl of the western world, but to the Chinese student 1t is highly sat isfactory. Steamed corn bread and raw turnlps that have been kept in brine and then chopped quite fine com pose the regulation breakfast almost all the year. For dinner there is usu- ally millet cooked dry like rice, and some hot vegetable. Twice week the vegetable is cooked with fat pork in- stead of In bean oil as usual. Supper is the same as breakfast. Perhaps half a dozen times year, however, they celebrate with more luxurious fare.-- Christian Science Monitor.

BUTTONS FROM OUR RIVERS
Pearl MusseI Fisheries Are Flourish ing and Very Interesting
 Industry.

It should be remembered that in ad- dition to their food value fishes are necessary in our rivers if we are to perpetuate the pearl button industry of the country, which employs some twenty thousand people and yields a product valued at more than $5,OOO,- 900.
 When the young mussels, which are of microscopic size, are thrown off from the brood pouches of their par ents at the proper season, the larvai mussels slowly drift to the bottom and perish in a few days time unless they come in contact with a passing fish of suitable kind and succeed in mak- ing attachment. Once this attach ment is made. the tissue of the fish grows over the little mussel until 1t has undergone remarkable change of form and structure; then 1t drops from the fish to commence It's inde- pendent life at the bottom of the stream or lake.
 It is a further fact that the young of particular kinds of mussels require the gills of particular kinds of fishes as nurseries. The black bass is host for several sorts of mussels, while the kipjack. a kind of herring, is the only known host for the best of all mussefs. As this last mentioned fish is far from being abundant in American riv- CTS, it is plain that much care should be exercised in it's maintenance.
 The mussel fishery that supplies the fresh water pearl button industry IS actively conducted in at least twenty states in the Mississippi rived basin. the raw production of shells now has a value of about s1,o0000O. The fresh

-.arrf pcarI puIIOn Is now rvcVgnizeU as among the cheapest durable but tons that can be procured. The mus sel beds have been rapidly depleted. chiefly because the fishermen in past years would retain only the very best shells and discard as culls all shells that were of an inferior grade.
 Necessary action in the way of gev- ernment legislation to protect the mussel fisheries has been so long de- layed that this unique and rather important industry is now sure to ex- perience considerable difficulty in per petuating itself.-Floyd w. ParsonA in the Saturday Evening Post.
