Makes a fellow feel less badlike when he comes up with him. Well, Mr. Quaritch, I must be getting on. but you’ll be wanting another guide. There’s Charley Paul, down to St. Amiel.” “Look here, November, I don’t want Charley Paul or any other guide but you. The fact of the matter is that Sir Andrew McLerrick, the great doc- tor who was out with you last fall, has told me that I have been overdoing it and must come into the woods for rest. I’ve three months to put in, and from all I hear of you you won’t take three months finding out who murdered Lyon.” “I had hoped to have a hunt with you. November.” said 1. “Indeed, that is what I came for. and there’s nothing I'd like better than to try for your red deer buck tonight. but while I was at Harding’s there was a ringup on the phone, and the provincial police sent through a message for you. It appears that a man named Henry Lyon has been shot in his camp at Big Tree portage. A lumberman found him and phoned the news into Quebec. The chief of police wants you to take on the case. He told me to say that suc- cess would mean $50.” Joe looked grave. “I may take more than that.” said be, “for maybe I’ll never find out at all. But I‘m right pleased, Mr. Quaritch, to hear you can stay so long. There’s plenty of grub in my shack, and I dare say that I shan’t be many days gone.” “How far is it to Big Tree portage?” “Five miles to the river and eight up it.” “I’d like to go with you.” He gave me one of his quick smiles. “Then I guess you’ll have to wait for your breakfast till we are in the canoe. Turn the mare loose. She‘ll make Harding’s by afternoon.” Joe entered the shack and came out again with one or two articles. In five minutes he had put together a tent. my sleeping things, food, ammu- nition and all necessaries. The whole bundle he secured with his packing strap. lifted it and set out through the woods. November Joe’s (by the way, I ought to mention that his birth in the month of November had given him his name). as I say, November Joe’s weakness for tea had in the old days been a target upon which I had often exer- cised my faculty for irony and banter. The weakness was evidently still alive. old Tom was overtaken by one of his habitual fits of talking big. Once when Tom spoke by the camp fire of some lake to which he desired to guide me and of which he stated that the shores had never been trodden by white man’s foot Joe had to cover his mouth with his hand. When we were alone, Todd having departed to make some necessary repairs to the canoe, I asked Joe what he meant by laughing at his elders. - . The sun was showing over the tree tops when I drew rein by the door of the shack, and at the same momggt came in view of the slirh but power- ful figure of a young man who was busy rolling some gear into a pack. He raised himself and, just as I was about to speak. drawled out: The young woodsman came forward with a lazy stride and gave me wel- come with a curious gentleness that was one or his characteristics, but which left me in doubt as to its geni- ality. “If it's hunting you want, I’m glad you‘re here. Mr. Quaritch. There’s a fine buck using around by Widdeney pond. Maybe we will get a look at him come sunset, for he ’most always moves out of the thick bush about dark." Then humor lit a spark in his splendid gray eyes as he looked up at me. “But we’ll have a cup 0' tea first.” ‘“Iysunrib55é 'a boy’s foot ain't a man’s anyways," remarked Joe innocently, and more he would not say. “My! Mr. Quaritch. you! Who’d a’ thought it?" I feel that I shall never be able to describe November. Sumce it to say that the loose knit boy I remembered had developed into one of the finest specimens of manhood that ever grew up among the balsam trees; near six feet tall, lithe and powerful, with a neck like a column and a straight fea. tured face, the sheer good looks of this son of the woods were disturbing. F e was clearly also not only the product but the master of his environment. “They were good days, Joe. weren‘t they '2” “Sure. sure. they were!” “1 hope we shall have some more together.” “Well, well, Mr. Quaritch, many’s the time I've been thinking of the days we had with old Tom way up on the Roustik." NOVEMBER JOE Continued from page Continued next Week. and killed him. but did not cut him and did not harm the ass on which he rode. This story is fully recorded in I Kings xiii. The fulfillment of the man of 0mm modiction some 3\ years later is found in 11 Kings xxiii. As to the death of the man of God for disobedienr'e I have often wondered if Paul had it in mind when he wrote Gal. i. S. 9. According to those words there are many who are under \that curse because they do not preach the simple gospel. We must bear only what God the Lord has said (PS. lxxxv, 8) and be deaf to all else. - When we consider the worldly abom- inations which are found in the churches of our day and the false teaching. such as the denial of the vir- gin birth. the deity of Christ. His vicarious atonement (His suffering for our sins in our stead ). His literal resur- rection from the dead. present ministry of intercession for His people. and coming again for His own and later with His own to set up His kingdom. does it not seem as if many of the leaders of our day are, with their in- creased light. worse in their idolatry and unbelief than were Jeroboam and Rehoboam? In all ages God has had His own faithful ones. though always only a few comparatively. One day as .Teroboam stood by his altar at Bethel to burn incense there came a man of God out of Judah with a message from the Lord. and he said that one would come from the house David. called Jo- siah. who would burn the bones of the false priests upon that altar; and as a sign that it would he so the altar was then rent and the ashes scattered. Jeroboam attempted to lay hold of the man of God. but his hand dried up. and he could not draw it back again until the man of God prayed for him. Then he asked the man of God to go home with him that he might re. fresh him with food and give him a reward: but he replied that he was charged by the Lord not to do this. Shortly after' this an old prophet of Ilethel. who had been told by his sons of this incident. saddled his ass and found the man of God sitting under an oak and invited him home. but the man of God replied as he did to Jero- hoam. Then the old prophet said that an angel had told him to come for him and to bring him home. (But the old man lied.) To this the man of God yielded and went home with the old prophet. As they sat at table a strange message came through the old prophet. which was fulfilled when the man of God left his house. for a lion met him This is a story of long ago, but is be- ing repeated on all sides before our eyes today. and as truly as the time came when both the ten tribes and the two tribes went into captivity for their sins. so the time will come. is even now drawing near, when the Lord will spue out of His mouth the professing church because of her sins and set hp His kingdom of righteousness and peace on this earth titer. iii. 14-22). The church. the company of believers. is expected to represent Jesus Christ on this earth. as lsrael was expected to represent the Lord God of lsrael; to walk in His ways and do right in His sight. From the beginning (led has wrought by His Spirit and His word and His own power. Thus He created all things in the beginning. and thus He restored all thing after the catastrophe (Gen. i. 1: ii. 3: Ps. xxxiii. G). In all the history of Israel He re- deemed. He fed. He guided. He said to His apostles. “It is not ye that speak. but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you" (Matt. 1:. 20). It is written of Stephen. “They were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spake" (Acts vi. 10). by Rev. D. M.,Stearns. When we hear Jeroboam saying in his heart, :‘Now shall the kingdom re. turn to the house of David. * * * they shall kill me and go again to Rehoâ€" beam, king of Judah" (verses 26, 27), aâ€"‘$.. ' g ' and remember that God had said {6 him it’ he would walk in His ways and do right in His sight, He would he with him and build him a sure house (xi. 3?, 38). we cannot see any evidence in and made the calves of gold and set them up at Bethel and Dan for Israel to worship. saying. ”Behold thy gods, 0 Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt” (verses 28. 29). he proved himself an idolator and a liar and a true child of the devil. He pre- ferred his own way to God's way. darkness rather than light. the service of the devil rather than that of God. His sacrifices and his feasts, his altar and his incense. were all the device of his own heart (verse 33). and it is written of him again and again through all the story of the ten tribes, "Jero- hoam. the son of Nehar. who made Israel to sin.” He never turned from his evil way. but did worse and worse. and after reigning twenty-two years he died and was succeeded by his son Nadah. who followed in his father's footsteps (xiv, 2t): xv, ‘25. 26). {ene- boam reigned in Judah seventeen years, but he also did ei'ii ill the sight of the Lord. and led the people into idolatry and into all the abominations of the nations wine!) the Lord cast out before the children of Israel (xiv. 2:1- 24).
