advertising so that in every phenom enon of nature even a rainbow he saw another flash of the advertising genius advertisements everywhere brilliant ad vertisements on land and sea and sky no wonder he asked his father what the rainbow was supposed to advertise it is supposed to advertise nothing my boy in the ordinary sense of the word but it advertises nevertheless the rainbow is not pressed into service to call attention to the merits of cigar ettes or automobiles or toilet articles but it does proclaim the wonders of nature and the majesty of the creator as well as his everlasting mercy

promises in his own time and way the weapons of its warfare are not carnal isaac uncomplainingly goes to work to reopen the wells the philistines had stepped he showed his respect for his father by calling the wells by the names by which his father had called them isaac was not one of those selfsufficient ones who des pises all that the fathers have done and thinks it necessary to call old bless ings by new names to suit the advance of thinking of the day the holy spirit considered this fact worthy ofespecial note tsaacs servants digged in tha valley and found a well of springing more
