W\ i;| ) Time.—B. C. 1114. forty years to the Inauguration of Saul as king in 107.1 (or twenty years from B. C. 1114 to 1005). Place: Samuel’s home as judge was at Hamah, four miles northwest of Je rusalem. Samuel was now about 52 years old nnd recognized as a prophet throughout Irrael. He had been judge of Israel since the death of Eli, twenty years be fore, making circuits to several places for the purpose of administering Jus tice. Samson was a judge further to the southwest during most of these twenty years, dying in the ruins of the Philistine temple at Gaza about two years before the time of this lesson. To day’s lesson includes 1 Samuel vll: 5-15. 5. And Samuel said, Gather all Is rael to Mizpeh, and 1 will pray for you unto the Lord. G. And they gathered together to Mizpeh. and drew water, and poured It out before the Lord, and fasted on that day, and said there. Wo have sinned against the Lord. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpeh. 7. And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gath ered together to Mizpeh, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines. 8. And thp children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto the Lord our God for us, that he will save us'out of the hand of the Philistines. 8. And Samuel took a suckling lamb and offered it for a burnt offering wholly unto the Lord: and Samuel Altar for Burnt Offerings.) cried unto the Lord for Israel; and the Lord heal'd him. 10. And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel: but tho Lord thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, ami discomfited them; and they were smit ten before Israel. 11. And the men of Israel went out of Mizpeh and pursued the Philistines, aud smote them, until they came under Beth-car. 12. Then Samuel took a stone aud set It between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, say ing, Hitherto hath the Lord helped as. 13. So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more into the coast of Israel: and the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel. 14. And the cities which the Philis tines had taken from Israel were re rtored to Israel, from Ekron even unto Gath; and the coasts thereof did Israel deliver out of the hands of the Philis tines. Ann there was peace between Israel and the Amorites. 15. And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life. Explanatory; 5. Gather all Israel to Mizpeh. A hill near Samuel's home at Ram&h. There must be a unification of the natioii by religious worship. 7. The Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together. The lords naturally regarded a national as sembly of their vassals as a preliminary step toward revolt. Tho lords of the Philistines. This implied a united in vasion of tho five great dukedoms of Gaza, Askelou. Ashdod, Ekron. and Gnth (vi: ll»-17). Went up against Is rael. They would nip the rebellion in the bud. The children of Israel * * ■> were afraid. They were probably poorly armed. They had not come prepared for war. They were unorganized, with a new and untried leader. 8. Cease not to cry unto the Lord. The people began now to believe in God and in prayer. 9. Offered It for a burnt offer ing. Not with his own hand, but by the priests under his direction. 10. The Lord thundered. Thus tho deliv erance was plainly from God. in answer to prajer; and thus it showed his ap proval of the new religious feelings, his readiness to forgive, his public recog nition of Samuel as judge.

A Corr<*K|M>(Hl«'nt Oiv« a l.ot of KPMnni rf Wlilch Not All Are Itraamiiibt**. l i ra the Westminster Gazette. A correspondent, whose sex we de cline to divulge, sends us the follow ing twenty-one answers to the above Question. “Why 1 Hate Woman:” 1. Because she stabs me in the eye with her parasol, offers no apology and looks as if I did it. 2. Because she pushes for a place in trains and omnibuses and. being in. never makes any room for any other people. 3. Because, in public, her prnille is audible and unceasing, and includes tin biographies and eharnc:< ristlcs of all her friends by name. I. Because she discusses frocks with her sister opposite, and describes fab rics and fixings as if at her dress maker's. 5. Because she climbs to ihe tops of omnibuses, to descend from which demands grace and decency G. Because she thinks the only way to make an omnibus stop is to prod the. driver, if she cannot reach the con ductor. 7. Because, being of that class for which omnibuses are not, she spoils her coachman and ruins her horses bv her ignorant, or inconsiderate use of them. 8. Because, being of any class, she loves a "remnant day” and dotes on bargains. 1 9. Because she displays her bag. loses her handkerchief and carries her; purse in her band. 10. Because she recites, plays vio lins and rides on bicycles. 11. Because she reads accounts of weddings and lists of presents in la-1 dies’ newspapers. 12. Because she walks three In a row upon the pavement and expects every one else to make way for her. 13. Because she worships priests and deacons, as well as illustrious per sons and cavalry officers. 14. Because she is "fluent but not lucid,” and more concerned about thet number of her facts than the truth of them. 15 Because, in nine cases out of ten.! she can neither sew, nor read aloud nor make tea. IC. Because she is always writing letters and wanting me and others to! answer them. 17. Because she is the slave of fash ion: and that not only in clothes, but in art. music, manners, religion, flow ers. jewelry, language and furniture. Ik. because she does not value any thing simply because it is "good'’ ifol- a fashion set in tin* days before woman existed), but because it is “worn.” or "done,” or even "talked about.” 19. Because il' she is "nice,” she is sure to be conventional: and If she is not conventional, she is generally nor "nice.” 20. Because if you tell her a secret, she passes it on at once to other friends —"I don’t mind telling you, dear, but it mustn’t go any further.” 21. Because she is often careless as to food, and thinks cheapness the first requisite in wine. An Oltl-Tlme New Woiuxn, Women who pride themselves to-ffty upon their all around ability and knowledge of everything must sit in humility before the accomplishments recorded of Mrs. Hannah Woolley, who, u governess in the reign of Charles 11., was moved to w’rite "A Guide to the Fe male Sex." In the volume her own ed ucation was thus summarised: "The things I pretend greatest skill in are ail works wrought with a needle, all transparent works, shell work, moss work, also cutting of prints, and adorn ing rooms or cabinets or stands with them, all kinds of bougie works upon wyres, all manner of i?retry tojs. rocks made w ith shells or in sweets, frames for looking glasses, feathers of erewel for the corners of beds, preserving all kinds of sweetmeats, wet or dry, set ting out. of banquets, making of salves, oyntment.s, waters, cordials, healing any wounds not desperately dangerous, knowledge in discerning the symptoms of most diseases, and giving such rem edies as are fit; all manner of cookery, writing and arithmetic, washing black or white sarsenets, making sweet pow ders for the hair or to lay among linen. * N'or was this all. Mrs. Woolley knew Freioh aud Italian and Larin, which she counseled her sex to study, "since it may hence appear, ladies, that you have no Pygmean souls, but as capable of gigautick growth as your male op ponents.” Klrtu-* Druv* HU b>v« Away. George Wohlstadt, an Importer and dealer in birds in New York City, ha* just be»*u made the defendant in a suit for breach of promise. The plaintiff is Miss Etta Wagner, a member of the Ixmdo'. Gaiety Girls company. which is now playing in the wear. She asks for $20,000 damages, claiming that Wolilstodt’K refusal to keep his prom ise to marry her has caused her to ’ suffer great distress of mind and body,” and has otherwise damaged her to that extent. The change in Wohl st aril's feelings is suit' to have been brought about by his receiving a legacy of $50,000 from his father, who died In Germany. A Terrll>l« I'oaiiihility. Tim question of the expediency of disbanding the militia company was being agitated one town-meeting day in a certain hamlet not a thousand miles from boston. The tavern-keeper, t. most pompous individual, who had courteously preserved silence during several noisy harangues, threw a final terrible bomb into the camp of the iconoclasts by the solemn interroga tory, delivered in his most impressive manner: “Gentlemen, lot im ai.l. you this: Win;f could v.c t o without mi): Ha in ca-*- t»r . . .;. k • THE DRUG CLERK’S STOrt/ He Talk* of Heartache* ant!

"Barham 1 ran do uothing better,” he began, "tuau to tell you the ‘•ecret of my good health, it is a story that 1 have told to many, recently, and it resulted In good in each case, it may be worth your while to listen to it. To begin with, 1 was not always strong and robust, as i am now. Long hours of work and hard study had left me in a wretched condition. Friahtful lingering headaches found me n ready vic tim, and at times 1 was so nervous that the dropping of a pin would cause me to give a violent sturt, and then I would be seized with a tit of trembling that was, to put it mildly, exceedingly bothersome. Well, 1 began to doctor myself. Now I flutter myself that I Enow something of medicine; but with all my knowledge. I could find nothing that would cure those terrible headache* or put an end to my extreme nervousness. When 1 picked up a bottle my hand would shake as though 1 had the chills, and if it was a powder that 1 was handling 1 stood a good chance of sprint ling it all over these black trou«ors. Things went from bad to worse, end 1 soon realized that a man of iny physical condition bad lietter not attempt to mix any medicine. " ‘Try a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,’ said I)r. Burkhardt, one day; and as you know the doctor’s advice is always worth following, 1 got the Pink Pills and began to tukethein. Would you believe it! Before 1 had taken the contents of one !>ox my headache began to give me a day oil occa sionally. anu soon it left me entirely. How aliout my nervousness ' Well, the pills put an end to that with almost startling ab ruptness. You see 1 know enough aliout tbe business to appreciate the importance of following the prescribing physician's directions, and by paving strict attention to those given by Dr. Williams with each box of his Pink Pills, 1 was soon another fellow. Look at me now! A picture of health, oh? Well, that is what Dr. Will iam*’ l ink Pills will do for a man, or .* woman either. See, I cun hold a gJa.-s of water out now without spilling a drop, but 1 couldn't do that two months ago and— " What is it ma’am?” he asked us a neatly dressed woman caiue-up to the counter. "A box of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” "Yes, ma'am, fifty cents please. Thank you.” "These Pmk Pills are great things,” said Mr. Maier as he turned to the reporter again, and the latter, after ail he had heard, thought so too. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are for sale by all druggists, or may be bad by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine t ’oiupany. Schenectady, N. Y., for 111 cents per box, or six boxes for 12.50.

The savagery of savages is as noth ing to the savagery of some creatures who are brought up in civilized com munities and call themselves civilised also. We have few records of In dians or Zulus wantonly destroying pictures or books or statuary unless they thought them "bad medicine" and held devils. Yet, how far could one of our city thugs and loafers be trusted in the presence of a work of art or a thing of beauty? It seems to be a sort of instinct with him to throw a stone whenever lie sees flowers or ornaments,' or 10 pull out. a knife and hack at them, or to upset or scratch or injure them. In a certain blind and brute way per haps his conduct gives him a flatter ing sense of power. He cannot make anything useful or beautiful himself, but he can destroy It. Tbe only way to cure these vandals appears to be either to educate them early or drown them. Drowning is the least expen sive. but there is a public prejudice against it. so for a few centuries wo must expect to see our public buildings defaced, our metal work bent and scratched, our plate glass broken, our street lights shattered, our pictures jabbed with canes and umbrellas, our mirrors marked with initials carved by diamond rings, our rugs and carpets and wood work spat upon, our walls scribbled with names, our streets inado depositories of tilth and our books torn and dog-eared: for it takes a long time to cure a vandal vandalism. One needs to begin with his father. There is so close a relation between the wan tonness of the destroyer and the dark er deeds of the criminal that perhaps we are justifb d in keeping a suspicious watch on any man, w oman or child who will destroy plants, books and pictures or throw' stones at helpless animals. The excessive aggression that mutilates and makes ugly w ill trespass on others’ enjoyments, rights and properties with but little more development. This Is seen particularly in the case of bur glars. These fellows, not content with stripping a house of all they can get. not infrequently destroy what they cannot carry away. They burn papers, tear paintings from their frames, smash furniture, break glass aud other w iso act like incarnate fiends. It might not be a bad idea in case of the cap ture of these men to impose sentences graded to accord with the amount of damage they had worked. It would make others of their tribe a little more considerate—perhaps. On general principles these wanton destroyers should go to prison, anyway.—Ex LOVINC TOO LATE. A Couiikioti Enough Story Portray* a Pal belie Moral. Not long ago I met a young lady in poverty whom 1 had previously known in wealth, and this was, in substance, the story she told me: "Father died suddenly in Washington, aud the pro fessional skill through which he had coined money for us died with him. I am not weeping because we are poor. I am broken-hearted because none of us saw that he was dying. Was it not pitiful that he should thiuk it best not to tell any of us that he was sick? And l, his petted daughter, though I knew he was taking opium to soothe his great pain, was so absorbed by my lovers, my games and my dresses, that I just hoped it would all come right. If I could only remember that even once I had pitied his suffering or felt anxious about his life. 1 might bear his loss better!” * 0 • The story is common enough. Many a father, year after year, goes in and out of his home carrying the burden and doing the labor of life, while those wliotn he tenderly loves hold with but cureless hands all of honor and gold he wins by toil and pain. Then some (lay his head and hands can work no more! And the hearts that have not learned the great lesson of unselfish love whle love was their teacher must now begin their sad duty when love has left them alone forever. Duma* and the llngn. Dumas, tho elder, had a dog as Yios pitabie as his master, aud the dog once invited twelve others to Moute Cristo, Dumas’ palace, named after his fam ous novel. Dumas’ factotum in chief wished to drive off the whole pack. “Michael,” said the great romancer, “I have a social position to sustain. It entails a fixed amount of trouble aud expense. You say that 1 have thirteen doj;s and that they are eating me out of house and home. Thirteen! What an unlucky number!’’ •'Monsieur— lf you will permit- -there is but one thing left to do. I must drive them all away." ‘"Never. Michael!” replied Dumas. "Never! Go at once and llud me a four teenth dog!” I meriui; a Graver Crime. Mrs. Outertown: ‘‘That Ylr.
