BIBLE EXPLORA TIONS.
After the death of Joshua, (he people
asked the Lord, “who ehall go up for us
against the Canaanites, to fight against
them?” And the Lord told them that
Judah should go up with them and that
He would deliver the land into his hand.
Judah asked his brother Simon to join
him, and with their united force? they
fought the Canaanites and Perinites and
slew them and took the land from them.
But all the other tribes did not drive out
the heathen nations that were left in
their portions of land given to them.
The Lord sent an angel to tell the people
that they hnd not done as he hau com
manded them. Instead of driving out
the wicked nations and destroying their
idols that they had let them alone and
made leagues witn them, and married
among them. And he told them that
he would not now be with them to help
them drive out the people. That he
would let them remain among them, to
be “thorns in their sides and their gods
should be a snare unto them.” This
meant that they would cause the chil
dren of Israel to have a great deal of
trouble.
There is one expression that we find
very often repeated in reading the his
tory of Israel. ‘‘The people did evil in
the sight ®f the Lord.” Though God
had been so good to them and had so
often helped them, and fought their bat
tles for them, yet they Would strangely
forget all Ips goodness, and “do evil’’
over and over again. They would do the
very thing that the Lord told them not
to do. The one thing which the Lord
hated above all else was idolatry, and
over and over again told them not to
worship the idols of the heathen, yet
they would do it, and thus bring down
terrible punishment upon themselves.
When the angel appeared to them and
told them of their disobedience they
seemed very sorry and wept bitterly and
promised to obey God, and yet in a little
while they would do just as wickedly as
ever. VVe wonder how they could be so
thoughtless and wicked, but the people
of this day are very much like the chil
dren of Israel. God is very good to us,
and often helps us out of our troubles,
but we soon forget bis goodness and sin
against him over and over again. The
people continued to do so wickedly that
the Lord sold them into the hands of the
King of Mesopotamia and they served
him eight years.
But when they cried earnestly unto
the Lord for help, be sent them a deliv
erer, Othniel, the younger brother of
Caleb.
He was the first of what where called
the judges of Israel. The Spirit of the
Lord was with Othniel, and delivered
the king of Mesopotamia into his hand.
And the land then had rest for forty
years. But when Othniel died, the peo
ple again “did evil in the eight of the
Lord." And the Lord permitted the
king of Moab to conquer the children of
Israel, and they served him eighteen
years. But when the people cried unto
the Lord, be sent them another deliver
er, Ebud, a left-handed man, who was
the second judge of Israel. The children
of Israel sent a present to thekingofMoab
byEhud. When he went to carry it, he
hid a dagger under his raiment upon
his right thigh. After he had given the
king the present, he told the king he had
a secret message for him. The king sent
out all his servants, and when they were
left alone, Ehud drew out his dagger and
thrust in the king and killed him, and
fled away. He went to the mountain of
Ephraim and blew a trumpet, and the
children of Israel came to him. He told
them to follow him, for the Lord bad de
livered the Moabites into their hands.
They then went down to the fords of the
Jordan and slew ten thousand Moabites,
all men cf valor. God thus again saved
Israel and the land had rest for eighty
years.

We will send Julia and Battey a pres

A SI OR Y FOR TBE~LIITLE~BOYS
AND GIRLS.
BY CHARLIE.
There lived in the village of Oakville,
a wealthy man by the name of Newel,
and but for one thing he would have
been happy; his wife was not a Christian.
They had an oniy child, a little girl of
seven summers, whose name was Olie.
she was very bright, loving, and sweet
tempered, the joy and idol of her parent’s
hearts. Mr. Newel was Superintendent
of the Sunday school at Oakville, and Jit
tie Olie loved dearly to go with her fath
er every Sunday. One Sunday after they
had returned from the S. S. her’father
was singing about Jesus, when Olie
looked up into his Lee and said:
“Father, what makes you sing and
talk about Jesus so much, you never see
Him?”
Mr. Newel took her up on his lap and
told her of the Savior’s love. The little
pet, with thoughtful looks, asked her
father to please carry her to Jesus, she
wanted to love Him too. This was
enough, the father caught her up in bis
arms, pressed a kiss on her brow, and
exclaimed! “Bless the Lord, oh! my
soul.”
He then kneeled and asked the Savior
to make his dear child one of his lambs.
He prayed, too, for his wife. Oh, if she
would only love Jesus, his cup of happi
ness would be running over, but alas!
she turned away from all entreaties. Af
ter this, there’ seemed a chord that
bound Olie more closely to her father
than ever, and she was never weary in
asking questions.
On the following day Olie went to her
mother, twined her little arms around
her neck and said:
“Mother, 1 love you, but I love Jesus
better, wont you love Him too? Oh, I
do love Him, and if I could see Him, I
Would put my arms around his neck and
kiss Him.’’
‘‘Olie, don’t talk so, you don’t know
what you are saying,” replied the mother.
Christmas day, following Olie’s conver
sion, was spent by Mr. Newel and Olie,
visiting the sick and poor, and making
glad many hearts. Mrs. Newel was left
alone most of the day, and her mind
dwelt upon the seeming happiness of
those Christians who were actively en
gaged in working for Jesus. More than
once did she exclaim, ‘‘Oh! that I knew
the way to attain this happiness."
After tea a boy came for Mr. Newel in
great haste, a friend wished to see him
about something urgent. The night was
very cold, and on his way back was
caught in a snow storm. Next morning
he was too sick to leave his bed. The
doctor eameand pronounced him dan
gerously ill. Several days passed In
which he ravedin wild delirium. Often
would he pray for his wife and child.
All this time Olie was unnoticed. Her
mother was too buay nursing her father
to give her much attention, and even if
she had not have been, she could not
have filled the fathers place, for she nev
er talked of the Savior. Oh, how Olie
longed for her father’s recovery. Once
after vainly trying to make him talk to
her, she said to her mother:
"I am going to tell Jesus, and ask Him
to let father know us again.”
Not long after lie opened his eves and
called for Olie. With what joy did she
run to him, exclaiming as she went, “I
knew Jesus would hear me!” The father
took her little hands in his and said:
“Olie, father must leave you now; I
?;oingto my home, but when I am gone,
ather’s little darling must shine for Je
sus." Turning to his wife he said: “Oh,
shall I see your face no more? Why not
give your heart to Jesus now?
Ob, the sorrow that filled every heart
when Mr. Newel was put in his ecffln.
Little Olie ran to him crying with all the
agony of her heart, “My fatherl my
father, what shall I do without you? The
father’s words to Olie made a lasting im-
pression on her heart. Wonder what
I lather meant by saying I must shine for
Jesus! I wonder if reading the Bible to
the old, getting up 8. 8. scholars, and do
ing everything good is shining?
Olie did shine too. she was a little sun
beam sca’teringseeds of kindness wher
ever she went. This verse was a great
favorite with her.
“So I’ll follow in thy fontsteps,
With my bund f ut hold in thine,
When thon make-t up thy Jewels,
Let thy little child bhin’e.
Two years have passed since Mr. Newel
died, and mother sad, impressive, but
beautiful scene has visited that home.
Olie is near to death. The little lamp has
nearly gone out.
"Oh, God, spare my only child!’’
The agony of that mother’s heart can
not be imagined only by those who have
had to passthrough a similiar trial. She
would try to pray, but God seemed very
far oil. Olie is sleeping, and from the
smiles that float over her beautiful face,
we know what is going on within. Sud
denly th* eyelids parted and she said to
her mother:
• “I have been dreaming, and oh, what
a sweet dream I did have-I’ve been
talking with father, and he told me that
I would soon come. Dear mother get
right down on your knees, and give your
beait to God, so when I go to heaven I
can tell father that you love our Jesus.”
By some irresistable impulse, she fell
on her kneesand prayed as she never
prayed before. She rose rejoicing in a
crucified Redeemer. Little vlie’s woik
was ended, and the happy spirit flew
away to heaven, there to shine on forev
er.
Now, my little readers, I want all of
you to give your hearts to Jesus, and to
shine for him as did little Olie.
None for work need wander far,
Little dee< s most useful arc,
