Sabject: David's Trust in God, Psalm li?
Ooldea Test, Psa. li, I?Memory Verses,
!???Commea'ary on Day's Lesson.
I. The Shepherd and Hia sheep (vs. 1-4).
1. "My Shepherd." Christ is the great
Shepherd and His followers arc the sheep
As a shepherd, 1. Christ lead? thc sheep.
2. Supplies every lack. '3. Guards ami
keeps them. 4. Supports them in times of
trouble. Jehovah is often spoken of as the
Shepherd of Israel, and Israel as His flock.
The title of shepherd is also applied to
rulers, and in particular to Davin. Chris!
applies the title to Himself (John 10: 1;
compare Heb. 13: 20; 1 Pet. 2: 25). To ap
predate the force of the image it is neces'
sary to understand the difference between
the modem shepherd and the Orien tai
shepherd of olden times. In that land
there ia a strong attachment between thc
shepherd and his Bock. Equally tender re?
lations exist between the good Shepherd
and His flock. On the other hand there is
an unfathomable affection, and on thc
other a calm, unlimited confidence. "Shall
not want." The language is partly of ex?
perience in the present and partly of con?
fidence for the future. So of Israel, look?
ing back on the wanderin*; in thc wilder
ness they had lacked nothing (Dent. 2: 7).
and looking forward to thc promised land
the promise was that thev would lack
nothing (Drat. 8: 9). With Jehovah for
my shepherd and guardian, whose hand
rests on all the sources of supply, T can
lack no temporal or spiritual good. When
John Fletcher was asked by George III. if
he would accept preferment in the cburch
aa an acknowledgement for an able and
timely naper he had written on American
affairs, he returned the respectful but char?
acteristic reply, "Sire.. I want nothing but
moie grace."
2. "To lie down." Thc divine Shepherd
(rivet rest to the wearv. The wicked arc
lilied with unrest (Isa. 57: 20. 21), but
Christ promises soul rest to those who
come to Him (Matt, ll: 2840). "Green
pastures." Pastures of budding or tender
grass. The original word denotes the ten?
der shoots (Dent. 32: 2) as distinguished
from the ripe grass, which is expressed by
another word. Hence, this grass afforded
delicious and luxuriant pasture. Prom this
we see that soul satisfaction is promised
the one who follows the divine guide (Isa.
ttl ll). "Ile leadeth me." The Oriental
shepherd never drives his flock as we do,
but goes before them. Jesus never asks
us to go where He does not go, or to do or
to suffer anythb'g He has not done or suf?
fered. He is the perfect example. His
gojng before means ever better things.
"Still waters." Literally, waters of rest;
not gently flowing streams, but streams
where rest and refreshment ram* be found
(Isa. 32: 18). But others think it has ref?
erence to the quietness of the waters. In
either case the figure is most beautiful and
suggests the quiet and peacefulness with
which the soul is lilied when it enters into
communion with God.
3. "Restoreth my soul." He bringeth
back mv soul, as a sheep that had straved
(Matt. 18: 12, 13; 1 Pct. 2: 25). The word
for "restoreth" means "to return." "bring
back," or, figuratively, "convert." Of all
animals the sheep is least able to defend it?
self, either by resistance or flight; is most
given to wander away, and has the least
sagacity in finding its way back to the fold.
"Paths of righteousness." Right paths are
opposed to intricate ami unsafe ways, and
to ways of disobedience and perversity
(Psa. 125: 5). "Pot- His name's sake." To
display thc glory ot His grace, alni not on
account of any merit in mc.
4. "Shadow of death." ReiHg so near lo
death that its shadow falls over him, for
he is not far from thc substance that has
come up with the shadow. The "Valley of
the shadow of death" seems to have been
suggested bv those deep mountain gorges
through which David waa sometimes
obliged to lead his flocks, though Ali the
hazard of death from the wild beasts.
When the walks of duty lie in the midst of
dangers which fall around like shadows,
then, says the psalmist, I will fear no evil.
Such confidence .has lie in his Shepherd.
"Fear no evil." The soul fears not to en
ter the sunless gulfs of sorrow ..when as
sured of thc BU
tecting care qf
darkness of death il'but ft shadow, after
nil. The trusting soul enters the gloomy
gorge only to emerge into the brighter day
of immortality. The Christian knows that
the hand which guides us into the dark
valley will guide up throHgh it and up out
of it. "Rod and?staff." Thc emblems of
the office of thc shepherd and his protec?
tion of the sheep. The rod and staff seem
to be two names fer one instrument, which
was used to drive away wild "animals, to
direct thc sheep, and for the purpose of a
staff on which to lean. Thc shepherd
walked before his flock, ready to protect
them from assault, aud they followed
glad iv and fearlesslv wherever he led.
II. The Host and His guest (vs. 5, C). 5.
"Properest a table."- The figure ischanged.
Jehovah is now described as thc host who
bountifully entertains the psalmist at His
table, and provides him a lodging in His
own house, as Oriental monarchs enter?
tained those to whom thoy wished to show
special favor. Although thc image is
changed, yet we have substantially the
thaine ideas as those given in the earlier
portion of the psalm. "Mine enemies." Je?
hovah had prepared this banquet for David
M a mark of special honor and favor, and
this in the presence of his enemies, who
looked on, but were not invited to partake.
This was David's answer to those who in
his affliction hail said. "There ls no help
for him in God;" "Godhath forsaken him.'
"Anointest." The reference is to the an?
ointing! which were thc regular accom?
paniment of an Oriental banquet, not to
the kingly anointing for which a different
word is used. Anointing with oil was an
emblem of the baptism of thc Holy Spirit.
"Cop runneth over." Thc overflowing cup
suggests a fulness of blessing. Jehovah is
a bountiful provider and i-, able to abund?
antly satisfy.
C. "Surely." "Onb." lt. V., margin.
"Nothing but goodness and mercy shall
pursue me. What a contrast to the lot of
tin' wicked mau, pursued by the angel of
judgment (Psa. 35: fi), hunted by calam?
ity" (140: ll). "Goodness and mercy."
Goodness and mercy are tho staple viands
of the feast, and give a flavor and virtue to
all the rest. Man needs goodness to sup
my all his wamts and mercy to cancel all
his sins. "Will dwell.,: These words nre
to be understood figuratively. The psalm?
ist expected to dwell in (rod's immediate
presence forever. "Forever."' Here is a
suggestion of the closest intimacy with
God and thc ceaseless enjoyment of His fa?
vor.

ipporling presence and pro
! the good Shepherd. The
The Hen.
This game can bo played by any
number of persons;, who sit in a row.
Tho leader, who is at the end, says
to bis neighbor, "I have a ben," and
each in turn must repeat the words
to his icare :t neighbor. When they
have reached the farther end of the
line the player at that end asks cf
the one next him, 'Has she feathers?"
And when this question bas traveled
back to the leader, he returns the an?
swer. "She bas feathers." Then fol?
low in like manner tho questions and
answers, "Can she wall-.?" "?he can
walk." "How does she walk?" "Wig
Sledy-waggledy, wiggkdy-waggledy."
As each player says this he imitates
the walk of a chicken with bis hands.
"Can she crow?" "She can crow"
"How does she crow?" (Eacti then
imitates the crowing of a rooster.)
Tho object of this game is to keep
from laughing* which is usually diffi?
cult. Any one who laughs or makes
a mistake in repeating the questions
and a.iswers must pay a forfeit.
Celery and Lettuce Farm.
Orange Farm station, four miles
BO'Jth of Goshen, N. Y., has the largest
celery and lettuce patches in the state
Tho celery pctch covers twenty-sis
acros and j* lilied with straight rows
some ot* them a quarter of a mile loug
Tho lettuce bed comprises twelve
acres.
COMMERCIAL REYIEW.
General Trade Conditions.
R. G. Dun & Co.'s "Weekly Review
of Trade" says: Industrial activity
lias increased somewhat, many plants
resuming and others preparing to re?
open. Several pending labor contro?
versies have reached amicable adjust?
ment adding to the aggregate of wage
earners employed. On the other hand,
strikes are ordered and some mills will
be closed by lack of new business, while
thc struggle for control of the copper
properties bas thrown thousands out
of work. While there is evidence ol
a setback in thc steel industry and
some hesitation in textiles at the East,
tiie general tenor of these roports is
encouraging for a continuance of pros?
perity, particularly in the sections
where agriculture is Ihe chief occupa?
tion.
Failures ibis Wi eic were 253 in the
United States, against 233 last year,
and 15 in Canada, against 22 a year
ago.
Bradstreet's says: Thc movement of
the crops lias been freer Northwest,
West and South and interior collec?
tions have improved. Eastern jobbers
in turn note a more cheerful tone to
trade. Wheat, including flour, exports
for thc week ending October 29 aggre?
gate 4.097,873 bushels, against 4,265,080
last week. 5,907,620 this week last year,
6.672,888 in 1901 and 3,612,421 in 1900.
Com exports for thc week aggregate
1,392,214 bushels, against 1,809.885 last
week, 152,205 a year ago, 606,159 in
1901 and 620,110 in 1900.

"CALLCD" ON STRAIGHT FLUSH.
And Gen. Gobin Had No Use for Such
a Poker Player.
C.en. Gobin, thc commander of tho
Pennsylvania National Guard, showed
his con tom pt for poor poker playing
in a striking manner during the recent
coal strike, when he was at Wilkes?
barre in charge of tbe state's military
forces.
One night a poker game was on be?
tween several Philadelphia newspaper
men, one of whom was a young fellow
on whom they wished to play a joke.
Finally, in a spirit of fun, "stacked"
hands were dealt, so that three of the
players, among whom was the young
fellow, got straight hushes of equal
value. After the betting passed around
twice, tbe young fellow "called," and
then, when bc saw the cards, anxious
ly questioned as to which flush won
on color.
The next morning (he young fellow
went to see the General for somo
nows, but the story of the poker game
had got there before him. When the
young fellow's name was cent in ha
heard Gen Gobin roar from Inside.

A Good Quesa
Her dearest friend har! dropp^l i"
for a call, and she staightway put cut
a five-pound box of expensive canch/.
"Oh!" cried the friend, "have yoi*
been squandering money like that?'
"I didn't squander it,' was the repla.
"It was a present to me."
"A present," repeated the friend.
"Let's see! Who's been here lately?
Any of your girlhood friends?"
"No."
"Sometimes a family friend, passing
through-"
"Not the case this time."
"Mrs. Baxter felt very grateftil to
you for-"
"She didn't send it."
"There was that friend of your hus?
band that visited herc-"
"It didn't come from him."
"Oh, I know now. You woo it on a
bet."
"Wrong again."
"lias any old friend disappointed you
at dinner? Sometimes they try to
square things-"
"No."
"Well, I give it up."
"Try guessing the most unlikely per?
son iii thc world, considering that it's
live pounds nf the most expensive
candy and not a little 50-ccnt box."
"Your husband?"
"Right."
"Heavens! He must have been dp

When England Will Be Coal Hungry
England has just been informed hy?
the royal commission on coal supply
that she may expect a coal famine in
the year 1945?which is not so far off
when you come to think of it.
Thc coal in the "tight little island"
will not be by any picans exhausted in
1945. but all of it which lies at a leas
depth than 2000 feet will have been
taken from the earth and burned up.
lt is estimated that all of England's
coal will have been transformed into
heat and smoke by the end of a period
of from -',50' to 300 years. After that
time, if coal is still to be used as fuel,
it will have to bc brought from the
United States or China. Nobodv
knows bow large thc coal deposits of
China really are, but they arc known
to bc immense.
The royal commission estimates that
even il the exportation of coal from
England should bc prohibited by law,
it would only delay thc using up of
the natural coal supply for about fifty
years beyond the time when the sup?
ply will be exhausted anyway.
However, 2_0 years is a jong look
ahead, and sonic other fuel may appear
by that time which will make the burn?
ing ol coal as old-fashioned as the
burning ot" wood is now.
The Coldest Known Liquid
Liquid hydrogen is by far the coldest
liquid known at the present time. At
ordinary atmosphere pressure it boil
at ?422 degrees Fahrenheit, and re?
duction of the prc>surc by an air pump
brings thc temperature down to ?432
degrees, at which thc liquid becomes
a solid, resembling frozen foam. Ac?
cording to Prof. Dewar, to whom the
credit i?, due of having liquefied hydro?
gen in 1808, thc liquid is a colorless,
transparent body, and i- the lightest
liquid known to exist, its density be?
ing only one-fourteenth that of water;
the lightest liquid previously known
was liquid marsh gas. which is fix
times heavier. The only solid which
has so small density as to float upon
its surface is a piece of pith wood.

MARSHALL FUD JUft MANAGER
Cu^ed of Catarrln of Kidneys by
pe=ru=na,
HON. JuHX T. SHEAHAN, OF CHICAGO.
Hon. John T. Sheahan, who has been for seventeen years manager of Marshall
Field & Co.'fl wholesale warehouse, and is corporal 2d Regiment Infantry, I. N. G.,
writes the following letter from 3733 Indiana avenue, Fiat Six, Chicago, 111.:
l'eruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio.
Gentlemen?" hast summer 1 caught a cold xo'iich seemed to settle In
my kidneys and affected them badly. 1 tried a couple of kidney remedies
largely advertised, but they did not help me any. One of my foremen
told me of the great help he had received in using Perms* in a similar
cxse, and 1 at once procured ??mc.
"It was Indeed a blessing to me, as lam on my feet a large part of thc
day, and trouble suet as 1 had affected mc seriously, but four bottles of
Peruna cured meentlndii and 1 would not bs without it for three months'
salary."?JOHN T. SHEAHAN1.

The Fatal Tip
The guest in thc restaurant?he was
from a country town?was mad and
he rushed up to the head waiter.
"Here." he said to the Potentate.
"That waiter insulted mc."
"How?" inquired the Potentate se?
verely.
"1 handed him a nickel for bis tip and
he shoved it back at mc in an insolent
manner. That'.-, how."
"How much did vou say it was?''
"A nickel."
"That's all right. You insulted him
first. See?"
Then the irate guc^t passed out some?
what soothed in spirit by thc thought
that he was a nickel ahead.
A New Position
"Well," said the college president,
"I guess we'll have to add another
man to the faculty."
"Where's the vacancy?"
"Why. we need an official surgeon
for the football team."

of the disease is at once suspected, but the
chronic variety may come on so graduallv
and insidiously that its presence is not su-i
pected until "after it has lastened itself
ti irouehly upon its victims.
At the appearance of the first symptom
Peruna should be taken. This remedy
strikes at once at thc very root of the dis?
ease.
