principal weakening influence. Oil

This speech pleased the Lord be-

With the death Of Paul we return
in todays lesson to the Old Testa-
ment, and study the lives of some Of
Solomon, son of David, whose wis
dom is by-Word, even today. His
reign began we'll, but he did not al
ways do what was right.
Solomon really got the throne by
a trick Of his mothers. King David
was an old man, nearing his death,
and one of his sons, Adonijah, whose
mother was Haggith, decided to make
himself king. You remember Alb
SALON., the dissOlute son, whom David
loved so much and who was killed
when his horse ran under a tree and
his long hair caught in the branches?
Well, Adonijah was his younger
brother. You see, in those days, kings
had several wives, so naturally when
the old king was dying, there was a
great rivalry among them to place
their own sons on the throne.
Solomon's mother was Bathsheba,
and to her went Nathan, a prophet,
and told her that Adonijah had set
himself Aup as king and was feast
ing with his followers. David, the
king, knoWeth it not" he told her.
and then proceeded to direct her as
to how she should act. So she went
to the king and "made obeisance"
before him, and when he asked her
what she wanted she said she want
ed him to make Solomon his heir
to the throne. She also informed him
that Adonijah had declared himse1t
KING without him. David, knowing
about it.
Nathan Reports.
Then Nathan came in and a1so
bowed to the ground before King
David and told him the same thing,
so David, no doubt being angry at
AdonlJah, swore by all that was holy
that Solomon should succeed him.
50 Nathan and the other priests put
solomon on King David's own don
key, and led him forth into the street
and annointed him with oil from the
altar, and blew on the trumpet an
nouncing that he was king, and all
the people said, God save King
Solomon!" Someone went to Adoni-
Jah and told him the tidings, and he
and all those who had hailed him as
king were very much afraid. and
AdonlJah was so frightened that he
went and caught hold of the horns of
the altar, hoping that his life would
be spared If he were in holy place.
When Solomon heard of it he said.
IF he sheW himself a worthy man.
there shall not an hair of him fall
, TO the earth. But if wickedness shall
be found in him, he shall die" Adoni-
Jah then came down from the altar
and bowed himself before Solomon.
who said to him. GO to thine house,
Now when King David felt he was
going to die, he gave Solomon some
very good advice. "Be thou strong,
therefore, he told him, land shew
thyself a man."
"And keep the charge of the Lord
thy God, to walk in his ways, to
keep His Statutes, and His command

TOday's Economic Structure
BY Ferdinand Wiener
PART vi.
In the report of the State COM
missioner of Banks for the year
ending Dec. 81, 1887, we find a
total of 255 credit unions operat-
ing in Minnesota, an increase of
thirty unions over the 1886 report.
The total resources for 1887 were
listed at $4,514,264.56. The total
resources in 1886 were 3,467, 475.49,
so the 1887 report showed a SUBJ
stantial increase. In the year 1887,
Minnesota credit unions made loans
totaling $4,703, 076.03. In the year
of 1886, loans were made totaling
$4,203, 01916. There were 49,043
members in 1887, while in 1886,
there were 41,875 members, an in
crease of 1859 in one year.
There were $4,354.37 worth of bad
loans in 1887, which is small COM
pared to the amount of business
done. During 1886, $4,154.S7 was
charged off for bad loans, so there
was only an increase of $199.50 in
losses for having gained 1859 men,
bers during 1887. This figures
down to having lost only eight one
hundreds of one percent, so the
credit union shows itself to be real
ly a safe place for money.
The youngest credit union in
Stearns county doing business, was
organized last September at Col
legeville with 43 members. At it's
first annual meeting held lately,
there was an increase in member
ship, the figure has grown to Is.
OF the total savings of the men,
bers of $3.50, it was announced that
1925 was loaned among the men,
bers. All outstanding shares re-
ceived a dividend of three percent.
The annual meeting was well at
tended, and applications are being
continually received by others who
wish to join.
At Mora, Minnesota, the Coop
orators Credit Union was formed
April Fl, 1885. At the end of the
year, it had SO members, with as
sets of $924.55, having % borrow
ers with scoops in loans. At the
end of the fiscal year for 1886, it
was shown that the assets had in
creased to $1O,O1S.35. membership
rose to 129. For 1887, the assets
