Suddenly Attemon laughed. “So you think I robbed the bank?“ he said. “I’ve my own down on them, and I’m glad they’ve been hit by some one, though I’m not the man. Anyway, I’ll have you and them for wrongful arrest, with violence” November was fingering over the pack. which lay open on the ground. examining it and its contents with con centrated attention. Atterson had sunk down under a tree like a man wearied out. -Hobson and Joe made a rapid exam ination of the vicinity. A few yards brought them to the end of Atterson’s tracks. “Here’s where he slept.” said Bob- son. “It’s all pretty clear. He was dog tlred and just collapsed. I guess that was last night. It’s an old camp- ing place. this. But where has he cached the bank’s property?’ For upward of an hour Robson searched every conceivable spot. But not so November Joe. who. after a couple of quick casts down to the riv- er. Enade a fire. put on the kettle and lit his pipe. At length Hobson ceased his exer fleas and accepted a cup of. tea Joe had brewed. “There’s nothing cached round here. and his trail stops right where he slept. He never moved a foot beyond that nor went down to the river. 10¢ yards away. The chap’s either cached them or handed them to an accomplice on the back trail. I’m thinking he’ll con- fess, all right. when 1 get him alone.” He stood up as November moved to take a cup of tea over to Atterson. “No, you don’t!” he cried. “Prison- er Atterson neither eats nor drinks be tween here and Quebec unless he can fesses where he has the stuff hid." “He won't ever put you wise,” said Joe definitely. "Why do you say that?” “’Cause he can’t. He don‘t know himself.” “Bah!" was all Robson‘s answer as he turned on his heel. November Joe did not move as Bob son. his wrist strapped to Atterson’s disappeared down the trail by whict we had come. “Well." I said. “what next?” “I’ll take another look around.” Joe led the way down to the river, which. though not more than fifty yards away. was hidden from us by the thick trees It was a slow flowing river, and in the soft mud 01' the margin I saw, to my surprise. the quite recent traces 01 a canoe having been beached. Beside the canoe there was also on the mud the faint mark of a paddle having lain at full length. all. tun ltUéLu. Joe pointed to it. The paddle had evidently, I thought. fallen from the canoe, for the impression it had left on the soft surface was very slight. “How long ago was the canoe here?” “At first lightâ€"maybe between 3 and 4 o’clock." replied Joe. “Then I don't see how it helps you at all. Its coming can’t have anything to do with the Atterson robbery. to: the distance from here to the camp is too far to throw a packet, and the ab Continued from page 6. terson cannot have handed the 100‘ over to a confederate in the canoe Isn’t that right?" “Looks that way,” admitted Joe. “Then the canoe can be only a coin cidence.” November shook his head. “I wouldn’t go quite so far as to ea; that.

Memory Verses, 17-19â€"Golden Text, Num. xxxii, 23â€"Ocmmgitary Pre- pared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Ahab and Naboth side by side on earth. the rich and the poor, meet to- gether, but there is a hereafter, as de- scribed in Luke xvi. and the rich here are sometimes awfmly poor, and worse than poor. when they leave this world. It is certainly a pitiful phase of sinful human nature when such as Ahab desire also a poor man’s all and act like a spoiled child when they can- not get it. He was heavy and dis- pleased when reproved by the Lord for compromising with Ben-hadad, and now he is the same because he cannot have Naboth's vineyard, and he went to bed. turned away his face and would not eat (xx, 43; xxi, 1â€"4). Many a man in Nabotbfs place would have been afraid to displease such a one a: : Ahab, but Naboth feared the Lord and evidently remembered that the land was His and was not to pass from tribe to tribe (Lev. xxv, ,23; Num. xxxvi, 7). and he would rather dis- please Ahab at any cost than displease the Lord. Such whole hearted people for God are greatly neededâ€"those who will never bow to any, however mighty, it thus they can glorify God. The fear of man always bringeth a snare. We must live in the fear of the Lord always. Jezebel, on learning what ailed herl husband, urged him to remember that he was the king. that he should arise and eat and be merry and she would give him Naboth‘s vineyard (verses 5-7). The people who give What does not belong to them. no matter who suffers by it, are still to be found on earth«unscrupulous, proud, selfish, the earth is mine; What right have you on it? There are also plenty to do their bidding. no matter what it is. Whether to oppress and ruin a man or his fam- ily or business or even to take a man’s life, as did these vassals of Jezebel (verses 8-14). Some one has said that if the servants of Christ were as ready to serve Him as the servants of the devil are to serve him many things would be different all around. t It seems to us strange that the Lord should permit the devil to afflict and kill His people, but He told His disci- U ples that they would be put out of the synagogue and even killed for His sake ' and that they must not be afraid to be . killed (John xvi, 1, 2; Matt. x, 28). In 4 the very next chapter we see a faith- l‘ ful servant of the Lord, Micaiah, the 1: son of Imlah, put in prison and fed on ‘ bread and water because he spoke the ‘ Lord‘s message and feared no man's frown and sought no man’s favor (xxii, S, 14, 27, 28). The time will come, aft- ter the church is taken away, when l: the saints then on earth, converts after j the rapture, the redeemed of Rev. vii, the great tribulation saints. shall suf- i fer terribly at the hands of the serv- ants of the devil (Dan. vii, 21, 25; Rev. xiii, 5-8), but their victory is seen in Rev. xv, while the torment of those who prefer life and the favor of man , is seen in Rev. xiv, 0-11. I 1 Word was brought by the murderers E to the murderess that Naboth was 3 dead, stoned to death, like Stephen and Saul, long afterward, but they did not ‘ know the God of Naboth, who ever'l Iiveth and cares for His own, though l He often allows that which looks like evil to come to them. It stands for- ever true that all things work togeth- 3 er for good to them that love God (Rom. viii, 28). Ahab went to take possession of Naboth's vineyard, but. an awful message came to him from I the Lord by the mouth of Elijah con- cerning both himself and his wife. “Thus saith the Lord. In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine,” and “The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel” (verses 19. 23). See the fulfillment of both of these medic. tions in xxii. as, and 11 Kings ix, 10, 26, 30-37. There is a reaping for all sowing both here and hereafter, for “whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap,” and “they that have sown the wind shall reap the whirl- wind” (Gal. vi, 7, 8; Hos. viii, 7). Ahab called Elijah his enemy (verse 20), but it was Ahab who was the ene- by of Elijah and of the Lord, for he had sold himself to the devil to work evil in. the sight of the Lord. being stirred up to do so by his wicked wife, Jezebel (verses 20, 25). He said to Eli- jah, “East thou found me?” And Eli- jah said. “I have found thee” (verse 1“” HUD-“v I 20). This reminds us of the words in ; Num. xxxii, 23, “Be sure your sin will find you out.” and also of Matt. 1:, 26, “There is nothing covered that shall not be revealed. and hid that shall not be known." Oh, the rerealings of that day. when there may be many works of even Christians burned up because of self (I Cor. iii, 11-15). It looks as if Ahab might have been a difierent man but for his wicked wife. And oh, how gracious the Lord was to him! He knew him thoroughly. and yet when He saw some apparent repentance. hu- mility and fasting He held 03 the evil during his days (verses 27-29). The alliance of Jehosaphat (who was one of the eight good kings of Judah) with ' Ahab. as recorded in chapter xxii, is one of the strange combinations of the godly and ungodly which prove so dis- astrous always. Why not determine --vvâ€" v to lay to heart II Cor. vi. 14-18. and um accordingly, for wholehearted sep- aration into the Lord is the only way. m DURHAM CHRONICLE. HOUSEHOLD HELPS.
