Children’s Corner. B«v. 1.0. BOTKIN, But. 8. 8. Evargeli.t, Ed 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. QUESTIONS. 1.

R. J. D. ANSWERS FOR LAST WEEK. No. 1. by P. T.—“ Casteth out fear.” “ 2. Triplet, by Fanny.—Mother— Home—Heaven. QUESTIONS BY J. 1. Elijah; 2. Samuel; 3. Marah; 4. Aaron ; 5. Bobabs; 6. Samson. 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 —St. Sicholas. The Texas Tribune says: “Tue late ‘at mospherical freshness’ has brought on many cases of coughs and colds, and Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is in greater demapd than ever. Price only 25 cents. 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 ADVERTISEMENTS.
