At the Lord's command, Llfijah •hows himself to Alia!), When Klijah was last seen by Ahab, he atiummeinl that rain would,only tie Riven by his word (17:1), In connection with the Prophet’s appearing before, the kiug, rain was promised. ■L Ahab’S question—"Art thou lie that tfoubleth Israel?" (v. 17), Ahnb’s aim was to intimidate Elijah—to awe him into submission, , 2. Elijah’s answer ( y . 18). He de* nied the charge and boldly declared that the calamity w li had befallen, the nation was caused by the Idolatry of Ahab and his family. It, Elijah'* Challenge (Vv. 19-24), - l, The people assembled (vv, 19, 20). The king convened the people at the urgent request of Elijah. 2, Elijah’s ringing call to decision (vv. 21-24), (1) The question asked —Who Is your (Sod, Baal or the Cord? (v. 21), Many of the people had not wholly forsaken God. They attempted to worship both God and Baal. Many, today are halting between two opin- Ions; they are halting between self and God—sin and holiness—mammon and God. But the question must be settled sooner or later. In fact, the decision id being made every day. (2) The silence ,of the people (v., 21), This may have been because of fear of the king or Ighorance, for many were of the opinion that to be re­ ligious was the only thing necessary, irrespective of the being worshiped. (3) The method of decision (w. 22-24), Two sacrifices were to be provided, one to be offered to Baal, the other to God, The gdjd who answered .by fire was to he the God, The people con­ sented that this was a. fair test. “ III. The Test Applied (Vv, 25-39). 1. The offering by the'prophets of Baal (vv. 25-20). Elijah gave a fair test, even, placed the advantage on the Other side. He gave the prophets of Baal the first opportunity to prove to the people as to whether Baal was a real god, Elijah tgunted them, and they more earnestly cried to BaftI, but no answer came. 2. The offering by Elijah (vv, 30-39). (1) The people Invited near (v. SO), His object was for them, to see the entire proceedings In order to fully grasp this genuineness of the test. (2) The altar repaired (w. 30*32). Be­ fore therd can be the power of God manifested, the altuf must be repaired. Elijah took twelve atones, represent­ ing the “united nation. God Is one. and Hla people Is one. (8) The offer­ ing on the altar (vv, 38-35). After the bullock was In place, he had four bar­ rels of water .three times emptied upon the sacrifices and the wobd so as to fill the trench about the. altar. So ■ure was Elijah that God’s power was sufficient, that he heaped difficulty upon difficulty. (4) Elijah’s player (w . 36-37). (a) It was based upou covenants (v. 30). The foundation upou which all real prayer rests is covenant relationship, (b) Its object was God’s exaltation (v. 30). Elijah was jealous for God’s glory—his supreme desir* Was to honor and magnify the Lord. The only thing that he asked for himself was to be known ns God’s servant, (c) It was for the salvation of the people (v. 37), His heart yearned after Israel. He was most desirous that they should come to know God, (5) The result (vv. 38, 39). (a) The.flre of the Lord fell nnd consumed not only the sacrifice, but the wood, stones and dust, even lick­ ing np the water In the trench, (b) The people fell on tlieir faces and con­ fessed that the Lord was the God.

Agent for Condensation Nuisance Ended. The cnjidensatlon upon cold water Ipipes which are exposed is nn aunoy- jance irhlch Das bw;n experienced In a great many -Industrial plnnte and some domestic establishments. The condensation has been practically ellrn- 1Inated by a well-known water company by a method of treating the pipes with a coating of paint and a layer of ground or pulverized cork. Only on very damp days is there a slight con­ densation since the pipes have been given this treatment. The pipe is first^ painted with ordinary paint and then a coat of special cork cemcni paint Is applied. Before the cement, paint dries a layer of dry granutated cork Is applied-by hand to. the wet paint Another coat of cement paint is put on top of the granulated cork and a final coat of ordinary paint Is used to give the finished pipe any de­ sired color. Difficult Bartering. • No European lias ever been able to*! meet in tlieir own dwelling places the Kukubuhns, a shy yet ferocious tribe; of New Guinea. . Other tribes of the countrj, while they linv-e a great fear of the Kuknhuhus, manage to do a NbnrteHng trade with them,. They, bring salt, earthenware, dried fish, etc., iiml deposit them In a certain Ind’cated place. They then retire for n . few hours, being-notified to do so by a cu­ rious cry from the distance. The mountain dwellers then descend to view the goods offered for exchange if they want them they put down other goods, such as skins, feathers am) other jnngle produce, next to those ar­ ticles wanted by them. Then they re­ tire In turn? and when the way seems clenr the coast dwellers approach ngaln. If the latter? rre satisfied with What- Is offered lp exchange they take the goods put down by the mountain people and go away, if nut satisfied they retire with empty hands. . Let Truth Dictate . 1 Critics, like the rest of mankind, arg, very frequently misled by Interest , . . It lias* been advanced by Ad­ dison as one of the .characteristics of a true critic, that he points out bean- ties. rather than faults. But It Is rather natural, to a man of learning and genius to apply himself chiefly, to the .study of writers who have more beauties than faults to be displayed; for the duty of. criticism Is neither to depreciate, nor dignify by partial rep­ resentations, hut to hold out thought of reason, whatever It may discover; nnd to promulgate thd determinations of truth, whatever she shall dictate.— Samuel Johnson, In the Rambler.

The title "woman” Is’ of military origin, and til** yeomen were so styled because, besides tile weapons flit for close engagement, they fought with arrow’s and the bow, which was made of "yew,” a tree that has more re­ pelling force aftd elasticity than any other.
