Darco tells a curious story of how he fled from Italy an F550, 'after kill ing a man in an alfiray. He went by boat to Galita and there in a cave found a considerable sum of money in Spanish doubloons and piasters, and gold and silver coins of various coun- tries, which were supposed to. have' been leit there by the corsgirs who once infested the Mediterranean. Returning with this money to Naples he changed it into current coin of the realm. Two young men, relatives of his, joined him and. they went to La Calle, Algeria. Here Darco married an Italian woman. He bought agricultur al implements, carpenters' tools, pro- visions, etc., and the party then went to Galita, where they now compose a large and prosperous family. Darco, ois still a vigorous man, refuses to accept French nationality or acknowledge the jurisdiction of the re- sident general of Tunis. He went to Romie recently to try to induce the Italian government to take up his case, but got the cold shoulder. He is now applying to the pope for some sort of protection. SUNDAY STUDY. God's Covenant With David--The Practical Thoughts. The International Sunday school les- son for October llth is found in II. Samuel, vii., 4-16. The golden text is the last verse of the lesson, The his- torical setting is presented briefly : What--God speaking to a king. Where--~In the palace at Jerusalem, When--B.C. 1042. Who--To David by Nathan. Why---To change David's plan. In connection with the lesson proper, read chapters xiii. and x. of Il. Sam uel and I. Chronicles, xvii. The key phrase of the lesson is, "Thy kingdom shall be established." It will be seen that God made covenant with His people, the Nathans and Davids being the agents. 2S spiritual covenant, verses 5.7; > Not numbers, but quality; (b) not wealth, but devotion; (c) not a temple, but a church. 2. By early choice, dence, verses 8-9, (a) David; ham;( ¢) from before creation; the heart of God. 3. Of transforming power, verses 10-12, (a) transient to permanent; (b) individual to national; (c¢) sectional to worldwide; (d) earthly to spiritual. 4. Of perpetual mercy, verses 13-15, Every true believer is in the line of Davidic blessing. ' 5. Of final and. glorious triumph, verse 16. (8) By the working of grace; (b) by the power of Christ, The practical thoughts are: (1) The work may be a good one, but the time may not be ripe nor the right leader at 'hand, verses 4-5. (2) David's par ticular request is. denied, but a large spiritual promise is made. (3) Diver sity of works and workers. (4) The Holy Spirit may guide His people by favoring their plans or hy defeating them. (5) Divine changes of the be liever's plans are always for the better, purpose, provi. (b) Abra (d) in A Rabbi On The Sabbath. Church Record The following langvage, used by Rabbi Emil Hirsch, of Chieago, in 'a recent sermon, indicates the extent to which the Jewish leaders have depart ed from the fundamental Jewish be ef: "The Sabbath of the Jews is Let us bury it. God never or dained the Sabbath day. It is an in stitution of man. Only millionaires and peddlars can observe the Jewish Sabbath in these days; of activity Sunday to all intents and purposes already has become our day of rest. I'he inspiration of the Sabbath can be restored only by participating in the flood of life about ns, and nizing as our day of rest the day set apart by the nations in which we ive. dead. recog: The Canadian Pacific railway auth- orities have received letters from the oditors of the British newspapers who recently visited the dominion, that, though their trip acrd¥ the Atlantic was a little unpleasant, so pleased wore they with Canada that several of them expreds their determination to repeat their pleasant experiences on the Canadian Pacific railway.

And if some of us do go under, well, we have only one life to give any way. When we go into a home where in the face of the new, strange diffieul ties and lack of accustomed comforts, the mother is weeping in chill dis couragement, 'possibly the baby has died, perhaps the hail or frost has destroved the crop, upon the prospect of which the money for the very seed had heen borrowed, then we have to brace ourselves and look on the bright side, and we steel our hearts and say something like this, "Now, what is the meaning of all this grief ? Sorry vou ever eame to this country? But, why sorry ?

I do not wish to cry down the advantages of the west, but I would speak strong ly against the false idea universally entertained in the east. We see gently born ladies here, who have finished their education abroad, with their hands scarred and seamed with toil, but yet with a British pride and for titude, showing the optimistic spirit, not even allowing a chance for sym pathy or commiseration. One thing here that strikes one in meeting the people in streams in the city, or in any gathering, is the ex pression of determination, of alive ness, that "animates faces. And they are a kind, casterners, | helpful people. To the must say that the first thing that impresses us on a return to your cities, is the chill realization of the coldness and selfishness. that prevails. The westerner's door has the latch always on the outside, and if there is only potatoes and salt," it is kindly and cheerfully shared with the casual visitor. In ome of the large eastern cities, we had occasion to call, a sojourner in the big expensive town, upon one of the city clergy. The time was the. lunch hour, the house was large, two servants--all supported by a large city stipend--hut no hospitality was offered, -and owing to the evident preparedneds of the meal, peith o ing of embarrassment we hurried through the business, to go withgut food till night, were too late for = hotel or boarding house din ners. Immediately upon our return to our western home a member of that same family came to our village, walked into our house, stayed till din ner was ready, and walked to the dinper table, as soon as the meal was announced, partook of our limited bill of fare, and made comfortable, without even an invitation, so hap pily had advantage been taken of the hospitable. spirit that abounds. We wish in our hearts that some people who are willing to talk a lot of re ligion, or indeed also some who never talk it at all, could learn a little kindness: We have had some very cold weather, and to the south of uf there as we Didn't Know "Twas Loaded.
