BIBLE EXPLORATIONS.'
After the defeat of Ai, the children of
Israel were very much disheartened and
discouraged. The Lord appeared to
Joshua and told him not to be afraid,
but to take all the people and go up
against Ai again; and that he should
overcome the city and take all captive as
he had done at Jericho.
So Joshua rose up early in the morn
ing, with the elders of Israel, and pitched
his camp on the north side of the city of
Ai. He took about five thousand men
and sent them on the west side of the
city. The king of Ai then came out with
his army to fight Joshua, but he was ut
terly defeated; the king was taken cap
tive ; all the people were put to death,
and the city was burned with fire. The
king of Ai was hanged on a tree, where
his body remained till after sundown.
Joshua then commanded them.to take
his body down from the tree and cast it
at the entering of the gate of the city and
threw upon it a great heap of stones.
Now, when all the kings in Canaan
heard of what the people of Israel had
done at Jericho and Ai, they were great
ly alarmed, and determined to band
themselves together to fight against Josh
ua and Israel. But a people called the
Gibeonites were afraid to fight against
Israel, and tried to save themselves in
another way ; they played a trick upon
Joshua. A number of them came to him
dressed in old worn-out garments, with
old sacks upon their asses, and wine bot
tles, old and rent, and bound up; and
the bread which they brought with them
was dry and moldy, as though it had been
cooked a long time.
They said to Joshua, “We are come
from a far country, make a league with
us, for we are thy servants.” Joshua
made peace with them, and let them live,
and the princes of a congregation swear
unto them.
After three days Joshua found out be
had been deceived. They were not from
a far country, but from near by. But
since the league had been made, and the
princes had sworn to spare their lives,
they said, "We will make them hewers
of wood and drawers of water for ail the
congregation of the children of Israel.’’
Ana Joshua called them up and said unto
them: “Wherefore have ye beguiled us,
saying, *We are very far from you,’ when
ye dwell among us ? Now, therefore, ye
are cursed, and there shall none of you
be freed from being bondmen, and bear
ers of wood and drawers of water for the
house oi God.” And they told Joshua
they had deceived him because they were
afraid of him, and because the Lord had
commanded all the inhabitants of the
land to be destroyed ; therefore we have
done this thing, but we are in thy hand,
do with us whatever seems good to thee.

CORRESPONDENCE.
Dear Mr. Boykin : I send answers to
Bible questions and “M.’s” enigmas and
questions to-day. Hope they are correct.
Respectfully,
Lucy S.
P. S. —I answered the other enigma by
D. P., but I learn it has been sent in anil
will not send it.
Answers received and are correct, and
we take pleasure in adding Miss Lucy’s
name to our list of explorers. We hope
she will be benefited by joining us, and
be as great a help to us as one other from
the same place.
We hope all our explorers had a pleas
ant Christmas and a happy New Year.
Our Christmas was spent in a very quiet
way with our little Belle, in Alabama.
She was made very happy by the recep
tion of several nice presents, among them
a pretty little doll, and ever so many
dresses, etc., from her thoughtful and
kind friend, Bessie R., of Montevallo.
We pity the little girls who have no doll
to play with, but pity more the parents
who cannot, or will not, give them to
their little daughters.
We have two letters all the way from
Winona, Miss., from Alberta J. C, and
Emma M. G., both containing full an
swers to questions, and correct solu
tions of enigmas. We heartily welcome
them to our band of explorers, and
hope they will continue to be diligent
students with us. Two things would
have pleased us: 1. That they had
told us something about themselves.
2. That they had not sent their letters
to the care of The Index. We must
continue to make that request. Sup
pose Alberta and Emma send us a nice
enigma. They are not hard to make
with the help of Bible names and con
cordance. We now have explorers in
at least three States, and would be glad
to have them from every state where
The Index goes.
To Julia and Bat-tey.—All your an
swers are right except the 20th, they
are not only correct, but neatly and
nicely written—(that mistake was the
printers, not ours.) If all the answers
are as good as those sent, B. will very
likely get the prize. Is not J. trying
too? But Alberta and Emma will also
get a prize, if they continue as they
have begun. We want to see which
will do the best. All of you must be
careful about writing and spelling.
Do you understand?
We neglected to say that the first
answer to P. T’s. enigma was sent by
Mrs. M. No explorer is more prompt
than she.
Who will send us some new and
striking enigma’s and puzzles? We
offer the following prizes: For the best
set of three Bible Enigmas or Puzzles,
a copy of the Gallery of Baptist minis
ters on rollers. For the next best, a
copy without rollers. If the parties
desire it, we will send in place of the
Gallery, a valuable book, or a beautiful
chromo. The enigmas must be sent
by the loth of January, next. Don’t
send any to the care of The Index, as
they may not be received in time to be
examined.
Since the above was written we have
received the following from B. M. 8., a
little boy 11 years of age.
A wicked man, who his brother killed
dead.
A king from whom Joseph, with Je
sus fled.
A woman who once gave drink at a
well.
A bold archer, who in Poran did
dwell.
A King who was tall, but not meek
or mild.
A man who well knew the Scriptures
from a child.
A great law giver most faithful and
good.
A high priest that helped all that he
could.
Who does what bad he can, not all he
would.
The initials give what was intended
to be the celebration of a wonderful
event.
WJSC4.T THE CHOIR SANG ABOUTTHE
NE W BONNET.
A foolish little maiden bought a foolish little
bonnet,
With a ribbon, and a feather, and a bit of lace
upon it;
And that ibe other maidens of the little town
might know it,
She thought she’d go to meeting the next Sunday
Just to show it.
But though the little bonnet was scarce larger
than a dime,
The getting of it settled proved to be a work of
time;
Sowhen ’twas fairy tied, all the bells had stop
ped their ringing,
And when she came to meeting, sure enough,
the folks were singing.
So this foolish little maiden stood and waited at
the door;
And she shook her ruffles out behind, and smoo
thed them down before.
“Hallelajah, hallelujah i” sang the choir above
her head—
" Hardly knew yon! hardly knew you!” were
the words she thought they said.
This made the little maiden feel so very, very
cross.
That she gave her little mouth a twist, her little
head a toss:
For she thought the very hymn they sang was all
about her bonnet,
With the iibbon, and the feather, and the bit of
lace upon it.
And she would not wait to listen to the*sermon
or the prayer,
But pattered down the silent street, and hurried
up the stair,
Till she reached her little bureau, and in a hand
box on it
Had bidden safe from critic's eyeher foolish little
bonnet.
Which proves my little maidens, that each of
you will find
In every Sabbath service but an echo of your
mind:
And the little head that’s filled with silly little
airs,
Will never get a blessing from sermon or from
prayers.
—Christian Leader

BY M. L.
Yes, children, the old year has gone,
and as some say, “The wee small new
year is coming in on the lap of hoary
headed winter.”
It al ways seems to us who live up North
as though it was just right to have the
new year begin the first of January, be
cause it is so, perhaps. But there is ail
especial fitness about it, even though it
may not have been noticed by the one
who arranged it so.
The year begins when all nature is
locked In snow and ice. Soon every
thing thaws and the plants grow, and
bloom and bear fruit, and then frost
comes and the year ends just as It be
gins,—all snow and frost.
The year did not always begin at this
time. In olden times their were only
ten months in the year, and the year
began about the beginning of spring.
But the Romans, those people who made
so many changes in the customs of the
world, made a new calendar, and added
two months to the year, making twelve
in all.
One of these new months was called
January, in honor of Janus, a heathen
god who was supposed to preside over all
doors and gates, and who they very na
turally supposed would have something
to do with the opening of the year.
This month was not considered the
first month by every one for a good
many years. The old inhabitants of
England used to call it "wolf-month,”
because the wolves were fiercer in this
month than at any other time of the
year. Then its name was changed to
Acfler Yule, that is, after Christmas,
and at last as they grew more civilized
and began to adopt the customs of other
countries, they called this month by the
name by which it is still known-
“Janueer,
Freeze the pot upon the fire.”
Profitable Patients.
The most wonderful and marvelous suc
cess in cases where persons are sick or
wasting away from a condition of misera
bleness, that no one knows what ails them,
(profitable patients for doctors), is obtained
by the use of Hop Bitters. They begin to
cure from the first dose and keep it up until
perfect health and strength is restored.
Whoever is afflicted in this way need not
suffer when they can get Hop Bitters. —Cin-
