BIBLE EXPLORA TIONS.
The children of Israel again “did evil
in the sight of the Lord” and he deliver
ed them into the hands of the Midian
ites, who drove them out of their cities
and towns into the dens and caves of
the mountains. And after they had
planted their grain, the Midianites came
and destroyed it all, leaving nothing for
them, or their sheep, and oxen and goats.
The people were, therefore in great
trouble and distress, and again cried un
to the Lord, who sent them another
prophet and judge, who told them of
God’s goodness to them, and of their dis
obedience to him. One day this prophet,
whose name was Gideon, was threshing
wheat by a wine press, so as to be hid
from the Midianites. Suddenly the an
gel of the Lord appeared to him and
said, “Tne Lord is with thee, thou mighty
man of valor.”
And Gideon asked him, how could the
Lord be with the people when these great
troubles had come upon them! But. the
Lord said, “Surely I will be with thee,
and thou shalt smite the Midianites as
one man.” Gideon then asked the Lord
to wait till he should go find bring him a
present, and the Lord said he would wait.
He went and brought a kid and some
unleavned bread and made a broth and
put it in a pot under an oak tree: The
angel told him to pour out the broth up
on a rock and he did so. The Lord put
forth a staff that was in his hand and
touched the broth and fire came out of
the rock and burned it up. And the an
gel disappeared. When Gideon saw that
it was an angel that had been with him
he said, "Alas, 0 Lord God, for because
I have seen an angel of the Lord, face to
face.” Then Gideon built an altar to
the Lord and named it. The same night
the Lord told him to build an altar upon
a rock at a certain place, and offer bul
locks upon it. And that he must break
down the altar of Baal and cut down the
gro.ves by it, and use the wood in burn
ing his own offerings. S > Gideon did as
he was commanded.
When the men of the city saw what
was done, and had found out who had
done it, they told the father of Gideon to
bring out his son, that he might die. The
father said, “will ye plead for Baal?” He
that will plead for him, let him be put to
death, whilst it is morning; if he be a
god, let him plead for himself, because
one hath cast down his altar.” The Mid
ianites came together with a great army
and pitched at Jezreel. But the spirit
of the Lord was with Gideon, and he
blew a trumpet and called together the
children of Israel to help fight the Mid
ianites, and sent messengers all through
the land and the people came
to him.
And Gideon asked the Lord to show
him a great sign or wonder, by which he
might know that He was with him. He
said he would put a fleece of wool on the
ground at night, and if in the morning,
the fleece should be wet with dew and
the ground around it dry, he would
know that the Lord would be with him.
He rose early in the morning and went
to the fleece and it was wet with dew so
that when he pressed it with his hands,
a bowl full of water came from it, but the
earth all around it was dry. Gideon then
said to the Lord, “be not angry with me,
but give me one more sign, let the fleece
be dry and the earth all around it wet
with dew.” “And G0d....50 that....
for it was... .upon the... .only and there
was....on all the... ..”
Then Gideon and all the people with
him rose up early and pitched by a well,
and the Midianites were on the North of
them in a valley. The Lord said to him,
the people that are with thee are too
many. For if all these should go up
against the Midianites and overcome
them, Israel would say, “mine own hand
hath saved me.” So He told Gideon to
send back all that were timid and faint
hearted-and 22,000 returned, leavingonly
10,000 wi h him. The Lord then said,
there are still too many, and he told Gid
eon to tike them down to the water and
let them drink and He would show him
who should go up with him against the
Midianites. So the Lord said, “Every
one that loppeth of the water with his
tongue, as a dog loppeth, him shalt thou
set by himself: likewise every one that
boweth down upon his knees to drink.”
Now there were only three hundred that
dipped the water with their hands, and
the Lord told him that by these alone he
would deliver the Midianites into his
hands. So Gideon vent all the rest back,
every one to his own place—that is, to
their own tents.
Next week we will learn how a great
victory was won by Gideon and his 300
men.

CORRESPONDENCE.
Bro. Boykin—As all my family take
an interest in your department of The
Index, I send the enclosed enigmas. My
daughter Fanny will also send you some.
Yours in Christ
A. M J.
We are specially gratified to receive the
above, for we know that the interest taken
by the.children in our department, will
generally and largely depend upon that
manifested by parents. Some parents we
have found who take The Index and yet
did not know that we conducted a child
ren’s department in the paper—we often
put in things intended more for parents
and teachers than for children. How
shall we secure more interest on the part
of all ? Will not some of our friends tell
us?
Dear Mr. Boykin. I sent you an enig
ma about two weeks ago, and would have
sent you some more, but have just re
covered from the measles. I will send
you one the initials of which spell. I
made up several while I was sick, but I
thought this was the best. I hope you
will come to see us this month and bring
your sciopticon with you.
All well. Write some to your little
friend Bryan.
If B’s. enigma was received, it was some
how misplaced—we put in this week the
one just received -we hope Bryan is en
tirely well now. We will try to see our
Albany friends this month—we love to
go there and are always glad to greet
Bryan.
We are in receipt of a letter from our
beloved friend and brother R. T. A., that
touched our heart to its innermost core.
After writing us some sweet words of
loving sympathy in view of our afflictions
he says: “I do not know that they are
of any worth, yet I have concluded to
enclose a SIO.OO bill to my good brother
as an humble contribution to his mission.
Take it and place it to the credit of the
Mill Baptist church. Hoping you much
comfort in your high and noble mission
and wishing you much success and hap
piness, I remain as ever
Yours sincerely R. T. A.”
In spite of our efforts the tears would
gather in the eyes as we read the above,
and our heart said, “God bless our noble
brother,” of whom we have more than
once said, “His worth is only equalled
by his modesty.” We wish our good
f iend could know how much sunshine
he has put in our sad soul I
Dear Mr. B. We send you answers
to questions and enigmas, with a new
explorer, Charlie 8. our brother. He is
a little older, we guess, thanmostof your
e iplorers; but is very much interested in
the lessons and wants to join. We hope
his age will not make much difference as
he is not so verg old, after all.
Hope our answers are correct.
J. and B.
We receive “Charlie” cheerfully.
None of us ever get too old to learn. We
have some explorers over 70 years of age!
Is Charlie so old as that ? If he is, our
studies will make him feel young!
Answers are all right.
We have now finished our work in the
Fr endihip Association and havehad so ne
pleasant meetings considering the very
cold and rainy weather. We return thanks
to all the brethren and friends who help
ed us—especially to Bro. and sister M.,
who kept us so long and treated us so
well.
ALMONDS AND VIOLETS.
“Dear mamma,” said a little girl to
her mother, as they were walking to
gether in the garden, “why do you
have so few of those beautiful double
almonds in the garden? You have
hardly a bed where there is not a tuft
of violets, and they are so much plain
er! What can be the reason?”
“My dear child,” said the mother,
“gather me a bunch of each ; then I
will tell you why I prefer the humble
violets.”
The little girl ran off, and soon re
turned with a fine bunch of the beauti
ful almonds and a few violets.
“Smell them, my love,” said her
mother, and try which is the sweet
er.”
The child smelled again and again,
and could scarcely believe herself that
the lovely almond had no scent, while
the plain violet had a delightful odor.
“Well, my child, which is the sweet
er?”
“O dear, mother! it is the little
violet!”
“Well, now you know, my child, why
I prefer the plain violet to the beauti
ful almond. Beauty without fragrance
in flowers is, in my opinion something
like beauty without gentleness and
good-temper in little girls. When any
of those girls who speak without reflec
tion may say to you, ‘What charming
blue eyes! What beautiful curls!
What a fine complexion!’ without
knowing whether you have any good
qualities, and without thinking of
your defe its and failings, which every*
body is born with, remember then, my
little girl, the almond blossom ; and
remember, also when your affectionate
mother may ne t be here to tell you,
that beauty without gentleness and
good temper is worthless.” — S. S.
Standard.
■A LITTLE GOOSE.
While I’m in the ones icau frolic all the day;
I can laugh, I can jump, and run about arid
play,
But when I’m iu the tens, I must get up with
the lark.
And sew, and read, and practice from early
morn till dark.
When I’m in the twenties, I’ll be like Bister
Joe,
I’ll wear the sweetest dresses (and, may be, have
a beau I)
I’ll go to ballsand parties, and wear my hair up
high,
And not a girl in all the town shall be as gay
as I.
When I'm in the thirties, I’ll be just like mam
ma;
And, may be, I'll be married to a splendid big
papa-
111 cook, and bake, and mend, and mind, and
grow |i little fat—
But mother is so sweet and nice, I’ll not object
to that.
Ohl what tomes after thirty? The forties! Mercy,
my!
When I grow as old as forty, I think I’ll have to
die.
But like enough the world won’t last until we
see that day;—
It’s so very, very, very, very, very, far awayl

The Popular Demand.
So great has been the popular demand for
the celebrated remedy, Kidney-Wort, that it
is having an immense sale from Maine to
California. Some have found it inconven
ient to prepare it from the dry compound.
For such the proprietors now prepare it in
liquid form. This can be procured at the
druggists. It has precisely the same effect as
the dry, but is very concentrated so that the
dose is much smaller. —Lowell Mail.
Maine News.
Hop Bitters, which are advertised in our
columns, are a sure cure for ague, biliousness
and kidney complaints. Those who use
them say they cannot be too highly recom
mended. Those afflicted should give them
a fair trial, and will become thereby enthu
siastic in the praise of their curative quali
ties. —Portland Argus
