They shall reviveâ€"Under the nurturing influences of the divine mercy, as expressed by the dew, and the protection of his shadow, Israel is to blossom forth in unwonted beauty, fragrance, and fertility. Lebanonâ€"Here, as often in the Old Testament, not the entire range now knows as Lebanon is meant, but Hermon, the leftiest and south- ernmost summit. From almost every quarter of Galilee it is vis- ible. “You cannot lift your eyes from any spot of northern Israel without resting them upon the vast mountain. From the unhealthy jungles of the upper Jordan, the pilgrim lifts his heart to the cool hill air above, to the everâ€"green Cedars and firs, to the streams and waterfalls that ,drop like silver chains off the great breastplate of snowl’i’ Compare Isaiah 60. 13. 6.

Assyria shall not save. us ~â€" iThere were two political parties in {Israel in these latter days of the jkingdom. One courted the help Tof Assyria, the other favored re- fsistanoe of Assyria through alli- iance with Egypt. The prophets re- !garded both these scnemes as disâ€" lloyalty to the God of Israel, and accordingly frowned upon foreign entanglements of every sort, wheâ€" ther they meant protection from the powerful Assyrian, or the reâ€" enforcement of Egypt’s swift hors- es (cavalry). The foreign idols, also, Lwrought by their own hands, were gequally to be eschewed as an ofâ€" lfense to God and as a worthless superfluity. They had Jehovah, and he was more than all their :allies and. made unnecessary their lhideous idolatries. 5. The dewâ€"Scarcity of rain often made the land depend upon the dew. So the Psalmist speaks of the dews of Hermon. In the long droughts of summer there would be no living in Palestine without this gracious provision. Hermon itself is snowâ€"capped in summer, and the moist warm wind from the Mediter- ranean, coming in contact with the chilled air about the snowy top, results in a drenching dew.” What a picture of the gentle pity of God. 4. I will love them freelyâ€"The love of Jehovah is nothing that can be purchased. It is as spontaneous as, it is undeserved. It asks no sac- rifices except those of a contrite heart, and where that is found there in a potency in the love of God which makes all things new. It is ready to forgive gratuitously. and powerful to heal absolutely, all our backsliding. So it. removes the stain, as well as the'guilt, of our sin. Compare Rom. 3. 24; 8. 32; Rev. 21. 6; 22. 17. 4 The fatherlessâ€"This is a touch of that personal history which colors so much of Hosea’s prophecy. Like his own childrenâ€"«one of Whom he called Unloved (one who knew not the pity which a father has for his children)â€"â€"so were the sons and daughters of this wicked genera- tion. They had grown up in ig- norance of the true God, and were not his. But he intends, nevertheâ€" less, to seek them out, to win them back, and prove to themwfather- less as they areâ€"that in him is mercy. 2. Take with you words - True repentance is articulate. It will not keep silent and so give no token of its sincerity, but will speak forth in praise and pure worship. ,Hosea. saw that the entire manner ‘in which Israel turned to God was altogether artificial and lacking in earnestness. Her burntâ€"offerings were cheaply rendered. They could in no wise satisfy an offended God. He wanted none of them. What he desired was a clean worship that expressed itself ‘in heartâ€"wrung wordsâ€"bullocks of the lips. Peni- tent confessions, vows, abhorrence of sin~these Jehovah will gladly ac- cept as good. 1 Verse 1. Return unto Jehovah thy Godâ€"Hosea has followed Amos in declaring that inevitable disas- ter awaits his people because of their iniquity. But now, with faith and patriotism, he turns to them with an appeal to repent and a promise of God’s forgiving mercy. His doctrine of repentance, thereâ€" fore, is as gracious as it is true. He realizes how low his nation has fallen in the guilt and shame of its degeneracy. But he knows there is hope in a God who is waiting to hear the cry and satisfy the hunger of the returning prodigal. . Lesson X.â€"-Israel’s penitence and God’s pardon, Hosea 14.

Everyone who ever uses Baby’s Own Tablets have words of praise for them. The Tablets are sold by medicine deal- ers or by mail at 25 cents a, box from The Dr. Williams’ Medicine 00., Brockville, Ont. Mrs. W. Arnold, Edmonton, Alta., writes :â€"â€"“Kindly send me a box of Baby’s Own Tablets. They have been invaluable to me and I really do not know “how I ever WOuId have got along without them. Baby was poorly; his diges- tion was bad and he was constipat- ed. I gave him the Tablets and they made a fine healthy boy of him. Now, whenever he is cross or troubled with constipation, I al- ways give him the Tablets and they relieve him right away. (I tried a lot of other medicine, but nothing seemed to agree with him till I got the Tablets. I would not be with- out them.” The testimony of Mrs. Arnold is that of thousands of AN IN VALUABLE MEDICINE We here had the merciful intenâ€" tion of sending the old woman back, an intention, however, she very strongly opposed. It was on- ly by allowing her to come some few miles farther on, that We could induce her to leave us until she had seen us safely to the end of the journey. On we tramped, she always ahead, walking with a fine military swing which a. Life Guardsman might have envied. The path was difficult, and oould.not be used by vehicles. Our guide led 11s up the steep way which follows a small and rushing stream issuing from out the Side of Rodinajo, and up it we ascended for an hour or more, until the pass was reached. ‘ Two Travellers in Italy Got a Surprise. Two Englishmen l travelling in Italy appealed to a “village inn- keeper for a trustworthy guide who would conduct them over the pass between the mountains of Bondin- ajo and Tre Potenze. In “Walks and People in Tuscany,” Sir Fran- cis Vane tells of their surprise when an old woman appeared and announced that she had come to make arrangements for the jourâ€" ney. They concluded she must be the mother of their guide, and bar- gained with her accordingly. What was our amazement to learn that this elderly dam-e was our dgstined leader, and, indeed, she was get up for the fray in long boots and short skirts with a work- manlikeâ€"looking stick. ‘ 9. Who is wise, that he may unâ€" derstand?â€"â€"To understand, in the thought of the prophet, was to lay to heart, with a good conscience, such truth as God had made known. None but the wise and prudent can so appreciate the message of this prophecy as to profit thereby. To do that requires not merely an in- tellectual apprehension of the ways of Jehovah, but a practical effec- tiveness manifest in walking in them. 8. Ephraimâ€"Representing the people of Israel. The verse has many difficulties, owing to the con fusion resulting from the use of so many undefined pronouns. This confusion is characteristic of Hosea‘s style. Here, it cannot cer- tainly be determined which is speak- ing, Jehovah or Ephraim, or both. A good explanation makes the verse }a dialogue betwee‘en the two. Eph- ‘raim announces his intention to have done with idols. Jehovah re- plies that he has taken note of the penitent’s prayer and will answer. That being the case Ephraim feels himself robust as a green fir-tree. But Jehovah warns him not to for- get agnin that all the fruit of prosâ€" perity comes solely from him. A DESTINED LEAD ER. When awaiting f‘nrial prisener‘s are allowed many privilegesâ€"they can do as they please within reason, have papers and books, a certain choice in regard to meals, and the fullest latitude to consult with friends and legal advisers on THE QUESTlON OF DEFENCE. W'henjhe sessions come on the accused is not taken straightaway One would third: that when a person confesses to committing a crime there would be no need to call evidence about it. But the English law is not going to: con- demn a man because he confesses. Evidence must be given by outside Witnesses, and that evidence is closely examined. If it corrobor- ates the prisoner’s confession then he may be convicted. If not, he may, notwithstanding his confesâ€" sion of guilt, be discharged. For example. One often beers that in murder mysteries men come into court and confess they are guilty of the crime, yet When their statements are looked into, and exâ€" amined by the light of other evi- dence, it is found that there is no truth in their “confession,” and accordingly they are at once re- leased. If, after due consideration, he‘ still desires to make a confession, he is given some paper whereon he writes down in his own way and of his own free will, and in the pres- ence of a polioe oflicer what he wishes to say. Again, when a. man is taken to a police station, he may wish to conâ€" fess to certain things in connection with the crime, but the police must not persuade him IN THE SLIGHTEST DEGREE in this direction. What he does must be purely voluntary and with full knowledge of the use to which the confession will be put there- after. The law, however, does not Wish to take him unawares, so the 0f- ficer is instructed to warn the man against making any statement and that if he does make, it, it may be used in evidence against him at the trial. When a man is arrested by a pol- ice officer, it is only natural that he should, in the heat of the momâ€" ent, niakle statements which might be against his own interests. He might yery easily say something that would be most detrimental to him later on. It can safely be 'said that in no other country in the world is the law so tender towards an accused man as is the law in Britain. Warned When Arrested and Have Many Privileges When Await- ing Trial. Altho‘:.gh a yrisohet when comâ€" mitted to a term- of penal servitude does not, as a, rule, consider himâ€" self very lucky or fortunate, yet he has, at any rate, the consolation of knowing that he has had an emin- ently ‘fair trial and well deserves conviction, says Pearson’s Weekly. TREATMENI 0F PRISDNERS BRITISH CRIMINALS SHOULD BE GRATEFUL. Also, when a man has been tried for an offence and been acquitted by the jury, he cannot be tried again for the same onence, unless, indeed, somo very special addition- al evidence is afterwards secured against him. The proper timo to do a thing i! when it should be done. Then, of course, after conviction and sentence the prisoner has the right of appeal. He can appeal either against being convicted at all, or against the severity of the sentence. This appeal comes be- fore three of his Majesty’s most experienced judges, and it is only after everything that can be said for the prisoner has been said that these judges give their decision.- One important point should also be mentioned in connection with trials at sessions or the Old Bailey. It may be that the prisoner is a. villain of the deepest dyeâ€"he may have had many previous convic- tions against himâ€"and which if the jury knew of them, they would feel very much inclined to convict him, notwithstanding that the eviâ€" dence in the case under review was very weak. The law. however, de- crees that no evidence can be given of these previous convictions until a. verdict of guilty on the case be- ing heard is returned. It is only when sentence is about to be pro- nounced that this evidence is giv- en. raised by the prisoner’s counseY, and if the court decides in the prisoner’s favor the jury’s convic- tion may ‘be quashed and be of no effect whatever. Supposing a. prisoner is found guilty, he is not finished with yet. There may be a “point of law” in the case which his counsel is doubt- ful about. The latttr thereupon ap- peal-s to the “Court of Criminal Appeal,” which consists of several judges of the High...Court. This Court will hear the arguments for and against This barrister will pick out all the weak spots in the prosecutor’s evidence and make the most of them, and, above all, he will not forget- to solemnly impress upon the jury that it is better for ninety- nine guilty men to eucape than for one innocent man to be convicted. and to their credit, be it said, Eng- lish juries always act on this prin- ciple. A prisoner may be too poor to pay for a legal gentleman to deâ€" fend him, and therefore if he ap- plies to the judge, the latter W111 instruct a barrister to take up the case and use his best endeavors to persuade the jury to acquit the accused. for trial in open court. The Engâ€" lish law is not yet satisfied that there is any cause why he should be tried in this way. His case, there- fore, comes first of all before the grand jury, who want to know ex- actly the nature of the complaint against him, and exactly what evi- dericewill ue called in proofi. If they are not satisfied they throw out the indictment, and the prisoner is at once released. As- suming, however, there is a [case to be tried the indictment goes for- ward before the “petty” jury in the public court. THE “POINT OF LAW
