Thus saith Jehovah--The usual in- troduction to a prophetic message. It gave the speaker his commission and carried much weight. 19. Rejected your God--Samuel has ex- ercised power only as agent of Jehovah and in his rejection his Master has real- Iv been set aside. The theory of gov- ernment in Israel was simple. Jehovah was ruler with special obligations to protect and lead to victory his "peculi- ar' people; they, in turn, owed him all the allegiance and obedience which an earthly monarch hed a right to expect. A king would in a sense supplant him. Himself--Emphatic. Jehovah would fain continue to deal directly with his people. He alone is responsible for their welfare. By your tribes and by your thousands --the division of the people according to the patriarchal method into "tribes," "families," and "fathers' houses' repre- sented the earlier period, and this lat €r gave way to the numerical and geo- graphical diviston into thousands, hun- dreds, and fifties. The two methods, however, were not entirely distinct In time but overlapped, as is seen in this verse. - 20, Was taken--By lot, Jehovah's will was ascertained by means of the secred choice, Urim and Thummim. This crude method of inlerpreting God's de- sires and purposes is often referred to in Israel's history and must have been in frequent use, especially in earlier limes. It was the only form of divina- tlon which was sanctioned, and its em- pk yment was restricted and guarded so 4s to protect its religious value in the thought of the people. 21.

How Britain's Best-Beloved Spends Her Time. Her Majesty Queen Alexandra never 80 thoroughly enjoys her life as she does when leading, co far as may be, tne life of a private lady at Sandring- Lam, her favorite hume. Always an early riser, Queen Alex- andra is up and about soon after seven o'clock. After a cup of tea ar choco- late--the latter, as a rule--her Majesty leaves her room, and commences her daily round. No matter what the state of the weather may be, she at once pro- ceeds out of doors, and has a brisk walk. Breakfast at Sandringham is partaken al. when there are no guesis staying in the house, in a small, cheerful room overlooking the gardens, to which French windows lead. Alter breakfost her Majesty makes her way to her boudoir, which stands on the first floor, in the centre of her private suite, Here she transacls all her busi- ness; and the amount she is called upon to get through day by day is surpris- ing. When her Majesty arrives in her room the letters have already been ar- ranged in neat piles by the Hon. Char lotte Knollys, who has been her Royal Misiress's greatest and most intimate friend for many years, Luncheon is usually taken about two o'clock. Tweor (hres afternoons a week her Majesty visits the tenantry on the es'ats, by whom she is literally wor- shipped. Upon her return home for her cup of tea--for Queen Alexandra is an ardent devotee of the "five o'clock"--she will spend some time with her private sec- retary, the Hon. Sidney Greville, dis- cussing various matters of business, Signing letlers, etc.; while it is abou this hour that her Majesty receives any other members of her Household who may be on duty at Sandringham. This is the time of day thal Queen Alexandra enjoys best of al, and when she writes most of her letlers to her intimate friends. Her Majesty spends a considerable amount of t:me arranging and class fy- fng her immense collection of photo- -- time, and of which 3he now possesses several thousands. Of the albums con- taining these photographs, the most in- teresting is the one that contains snap- shots of the various members of thé Reyal Family. Among these are photo- graphs of Queen Victoria temporarily "re'd up" in her donkey-chaise through the animal refusing to budge an inch; the Prince of Wales floundering in a sal- men-stream, into which an incautious step has plunged him while fishing; and the King leading young Prince Edward uf Wales across the park by the ear as & punishment for some boyish prank of which his Royal grandfather did not ap- prove. Dinner at Sandringham is something o! a movable feast. Rarely, however, Is it served b-fore nine o'clock. As a gen- cral'rule, when there are no guests pre sent, thelr Mejesties are joined by the faides and gentlemen in altendance. Mus'c in the drawing-room follows, with A bridge-table for the special enterlain- ment of the King. Like most other members of the Royal Family, Queen Alexandra is an excel lent musician, and plays the piano with very considerable skill. Her Majesty retires for the might comparatively early; and to this, together with her early rising and her partiality for a fruit diet, is due much of her exceed- ingly good health, ----een AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY. An Explorer's Adventure on the Coast of Greenland. In 1898 Capt. Otto Sverdrup went up Smith Sound in his old ship, the Fram, in an endeavor to sail round the north coast of Greenland from west lo east. Mr. W. J. Strong, in "Round About the North Pole," quoles some of the explor- er's edventures from his own story. One bear, which they discovered on a little plateau high up on a mountain crag. The little ledge was reached by a bridge rot more than a good yard in width. His majesty was not visible to Schel until he came within a few feet of him, but then it was not long before a shot was heard. The bear sank together, and in a few seconds afterwards all the dogs had thrown themselves upon it. ccat, tearing tufts of hair out of it, and Lefore we knew what they were doing, had dragged the body to the edge of the plateau, where it shot out over the precipice.

Edmund Burke's Great Speech Against an Alliance With France. An interesting and, at one time, much- talked-of relic has recently come nto the possession of Lord Burnham. It is the weapon of Edmund Burke's famous "Cagger scene" in the House of Com- mons. Hislory has crediled the great orator with having treated Parliament tc a carefully worked-up dramatic crisis in this speech, but Mr. Macknight, in his "Life and Times of Edmund Burke,' declares that the scene was impromptu. The affair took place at the discussion of the alien bill. On the way to the House of Commons that day Burke called at the fore gn of- fice, and was shown by the under-secre- tury of state a dagger whch had been sent as a patlern to a manufactory at Birmingham with an order for some thousands. The country at the time was full of angry and disaffected societies, and such a proc «ding as a large oruer of offensive woa ons looked ve Ty suspi- cious. Burke asked for the dagger, and took it with him to th» House, Fox spoke against the bull, stating his sympathics with the French Republicans. Burke's speech followed. At first all he said was grave, argumentative and rea- sonable, Coming to the question of the bill itself, he grew excited, and declared it was necessary to kcep murderers and atheists from British shores, Already schemes of bloodshed were prevalent, Large orders for daggers had been sent to Birmingham. Here the House looked astonished. Pulling out tho dagger, Burke held it up before the audience, 'hen threw ft vehemently on the floor. Pomtng to it, he exclaimed, "This is whal you are to gain from an alliance with France! Such are the daggers pro- pared for you. Wherever such principle, are introduced, such pract.ces follow." A scornful tiltering came from the Heuse. Burke checked it with a vehe nent protestation, "Let us keep French principles from ou heads and French daggers from our hearts!" were his finishing wands. The House was worked up to a great excitement. Even the contemptuous words which proceeded from cone of 11s niembers, "The gentleman has brought his knife; where is his fork?" failed to snail the effect of the speech. The op- ponents dared not speak, and the bill It is sa'd (hat the und.r-secretary picked up the dagger and carried it home. Now, after more than a century, it comes into public notice again. -- SENTENCE SERMONS. Fretting fritters awny 1{'s force, Nothing is more deceplive than love ol self.
