j B HERENKd Ainis is on 11. Cast the javelinâ€"Saul, now thorâ€" oughly infuriated, determined to make an end of the shepherd boy. Some think that at this time Saul did not actually cast the spear as he did later (chap. 15. 10), but that he merely brandished the weapon and that David escaped before it was actually cast. The origiaal w nd rendered "cast" may be transiited here 9. Eyed Davidâ€"Watched all his moveâ€" men‘ts with suspicion and jealousy, which soon ripened into deadly hatred. "He eyed David as one he was jealous of and sought advantages against; his counteâ€" nance was not toward him as it had been. Froud men cannot endure to hear any praised but themselves. It is a sign that the Spirit of God has departed from men if they be peevish in their resentment of affronts, envious and suspicious of a‘!l about them, and illâ€"natured in their conâ€" duct; for the wisdom from above makes us quite otherwise."â€"Henry. . Jeailousy and envy directed the gaze of ‘that eye. Two things will inevitably foilow « man filled with the Holy Ghost and wa‘king in the light. He will be filled with power, and true, simpleâ€"hearted Israel will joyfully recognize it.â€"Smith. If Saul had been a good man, he would have been horrified at ‘the appearance of this evil passion in his heart; he would have said, "CGet thee behind me, Satan." Inâ€" stead of stamping it out, Saul nourished it; instead of extinguishing the spark he heaped fuel on the flame.â€"Blaikie. II. Saul attempts to kill David (vs. 10, 11). _ "Here commences the record of those persecutions by which, during the rest of Sauls‘ lifetime, the conqueror of tioliath was continually harassed. _ it forms a suggestive period of Israelitish history, and presents in striking contrast the development of Saul‘s great wickedâ€" ness on the one hand, and David‘s many excellencies on the other. These perseenâ€" tions, however, were a most useful discipâ€" line for the psalmist king."â€"Whed. Com. 10. Evil spiritâ€"A demon like those mentioned so frequently in the New Tosâ€" iament. "The very next day after he conceived malice against David the evil spirit seized him. Those that indugle themseives in envy and uncharitableness give place to the devil and prepare for the reâ€"entry of the unclean spirit, with seven others more wicked."â€"Henry. From liodâ€"Sent by permission of God, as Satâ€" an in Job 2, 7. Came upon Saulâ€"He reâ€" lapsed into a state of demoniac possesâ€" sion. Nee chap. 16, 14. Prophesiedâ€"Raâ€" ther, "raved."â€"R. V., margin. "The word ‘prophesy‘ describes an ecstatic condiâ€" tion due to supernatural influence, good or evil; the result in the one case being prophetic inspiration or religious enthusâ€" lasm, in the other raving madness."â€" Cam. Bib. Saul was at first insvired by the Holy Spiri, but now that Spirit has left him and a foul demon occupies his place, and accordingly, instead of hallgwâ€" ed ecstasy, his religious exercises resemâ€" ble the frantic ravings of a madman. He utters impassioned cries, and perhaps falls prostrate on the floor and breathes forth his inner ravings like one hoiding communion with an unseen world.â€"Terâ€" ry.

He was alâ€" ways ready to seek the ruin of any man by whom {e imagined he might be injurâ€" ed. But the kingdomâ€"The prophet had distinetly told him in ‘the day of his sin, that the Lord had rent the kingdom from him, and had given it to a neighbor that was better than he (chap. 15, 28). In David Saul could read the marks of such a man.â€"Wilberforee. "This was a neat poetic parallelism, The enthusiastic throng intimate that David‘s triumph was of more importance than all of Saul‘s vietories."â€"Terry. In this they committed a grave indiscretion; they praised a subject at the expense of their king. 7. Sung one to another (R. V.)â€"They sang alternately. Some of the women began the song with, "Saul hath slain his thousands," and another company anâ€" swered, "And David his ten thousands." 6â€"16. i Commentary.â€"I. Saul at David . (vs. 6â€"9). :’Wu mu:fâ€"’m. has . evidently been a digression in the narraâ€". tive (vs. 1â€"5) "to relate the account of . Duvids‘ permanent reception into Saul‘s service, the commencement of the friendâ€" lhr between him and Jonathan, and his ultimate promotion and success." The narrative now goes back to the welcome which David received when the army reâ€" turned in trimmph from the successfal ecompletion of the Philistine war. This verse should be read in connection with ehap. 17, 54; though some time may have elapsed, duri: which the army was occupied in following up its first aneâ€" eess, _ Women came outâ€"This was in harmony with Oriental eustoms. !t was the principle business of certain women to celebrate victories, sing at funerals, etc. Of all citiesâ€"They came together from all the neighboring cities. s:,lng and daneingâ€"This is a characteristic trait of Oriental manners,. On the reâ€" turn of friends long absent, and particuâ€" larly on the return of a vietorious aamy, bands of women and children issue from the towns and villages to form a triâ€" umphal procession, to celebrate the vicâ€" tory with dancing, music and songs, in honor of ‘the generals who have earned the highest distinction by feats of galâ€" lantry. The Hebrew women, therefore, were merely paf'ing the ecustomary conâ€" gratulations to David as the deliverer of their country.â€"J., F. & B. Tabretsâ€"Or timbrels. _A handâ€"drum, an inscrument still used by the Arabs, and described as a hoop over which a piece of parchment is drawn. Sometimes pieces of brass are fixed in it to make a jingling. _ It is beaten with the fingers.â€"Cam, Bib. This must have been similar to the modern tambourine. 3. Write nothing you would not like God to read. 4. Go to no place where VI. _ Feared. "And _ Saul _ was afrait _ of _ David, because the Lord _ was _ with him" (v. 12). If we would have the fear of those about us and influence them we must live in the presence of God. A faithful Lord is always recognized by the good as being with those who like David behave themâ€" selves wisely. Here are seven rules to copy in your Bible to help you to live as in the presence of God: 1. Say nothing you would not like God to hear. 2. Do nothing you would not like God to see. 20.) "The world cannot hate you," Jesus said to his brethren who did not believe in him," "but me it hateth, beâ€" cause _ I testify of it that the works therof are evil" (John 7; 7.) â€" Christ‘s promise to us is, "Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you" (Luke 6; 22). V. Kept. "Saul cast the javelin .... David avoided" (v. 11.) He could not fight the king, but he could flee from his presence. God kept the javelin from injuring him. They are safe whom God keens (Psa,. 91: 5, 14â€"16). IV. Hated. "Saul .. said, I will smite David" (v, 11.) The world will hate the Christian who is true. Jesus was hated because in the synagogue at Nazareth he spoke true, faithful words (Luke 4; 28, 1. Faithful. "David went out whitherâ€" soever Naul sent him" (v. 5.) The trae disciple will be faithful to those over him not as unto men, but as unto God (Eph. 6; 5â€"8). 11. Favored. "Accepted" (v. 5.) Daâ€" vid was beloved both by Israel and by the servants of Saul. His wisdom in his walk brought _ him prosperity (v. 14, margin.) His name was "precious" (v. 30. margin). III. "The women .... said, Saul hath slain his thousands and David his ten thousands .. and Saul was very wroth" (v. 8.) By killing Goliath, David had really won the battle. _ They only told the truth, but it made Saul jealous. Bad mer cannot bear to hear good men praised. But those who envy others only really won the battle. _ They only told the truth, but it made Saul jealous. Bad mer cannot bear to hear good men praised. But those who envy others only hurt themselves. "Wrath is eruel and anger is outrageous, but who is able to stand for envy?" (Prov. 27; 4.) "Envy is as rottenness to the bone" (Prov. 14; 30.) ‘"What rust is to iron and mildew to corn, and moth to cloth, that envy is to the heart where it hides." Envy threw a javelin at David (vs. 8, 11). and Vs. 12.16. 12. Was afraid of David â€"â€" Saul became sensible that he was figh ; ing against God; this caused terzor a»d continued to disturb him more and m we. Because the Lord, ete.â€"â€"When God is with us we are certain to mc:ecd,_ hu_t when the Lor® forsakes a person he is equally certain to be defeated. Th: Christian is mighty only "through Go1* (2 Cor. 2. 10). 13. Removed himâ€"He was afraid to retain David longer as an :inâ€" mediate attendant. Captainâ€"It is n~>t certain that this was the same . apâ€" pointment referred to in vs. 5, but it is quite likely that it was. "Saul probably made David chief of one of the principal towns of Judah, each containing, roughâ€" ly. a thousand men. Saul did this partly t» get David out of his sight, and par® ly (vs. 17, 25) in the hope that his dargerous rival might be killed in batâ€" tle, The people who loved David would consider this an honor paid to the naâ€" ticnal hero; otherwise they would have been angered by Saul‘s action." Went out and came inâ€""God being with him in all that he does, he is not only kept from retaliating on Saul, not only kept from all devices of getting rid of one who was so unjust and unkind to him, but he is remarkably obedient, remarkâ€" ably faithful, and by God‘s grace reâ€" markably successful in the work given hinÂ¥stc, do. It is a beautiful period of David‘s lifeâ€"the most blameless _ and beautiful of any, The object of unmeritâ€" ed hatred, the viectim of atrocious plots, the helpless object of a despot‘s mad and ungoverned fury, yet cherishing no trace of biitter feeling, dreaming of no violent project of relief, but going out and in with perfect loyalty, and strainâ€" ‘ ing every nerve to prove himself a labâ€" orious, faithful and useful servant of the master who loathed him." _ 14.â€"David behaved..wisely â€" David conducted himself with great discretion. "His whole course was marked by wisâ€" dom, by which is meant both piety and prudence. And in this he is an object lesson to us in proof of the point much to be insisted upon, that the Lord‘s inâ€" terventions in our behalf do not susâ€" pend our obligations to be both prayer ful and careful." The Lord was with him â€"In every darkness which cast _ its shadow around him the light of the open heavens penetrated; and after every storm thit raged against him there folâ€" lowed the gentle breathings of â€" divine ecnsolation. To this day wherever the melody of his psalms sounds and echoes in the heart, the shadows of sorrow and sadness are scattered, and courage and peace and joy return and take possession of the soul.â€"Krummacher. 16. All.... loved Davidâ€"That is, the large majority, all who came to know him. Because, ots. â€"That is ,they loved him because le was discreet and wise in all of his moveâ€" ments amone them. David persecuted _ by Saul typifies those of whom it is written, "All that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall sufâ€" fer persecution" (2 Tim. 3; 12.) David "lifted," or "brandished." After this Saul never lost the idea that David was the Godâ€"ordained king. This purpose he resolved to defeat, and, accordingly, made several attempts on his life. â€" PRACTICAL APPLICATION® pun Per Head is Only Quarter That of Great Britain. London, Aug. 10.â€"The Church of Engâ€" land Temperance Society asked an opinâ€" ion on the drink question from some colonial bishops attending the Panâ€"Angliâ€" can Congress. The Australian bishops think the licensing system defective, and there is much to learn in the Commonâ€" wealth from an unfavorable comparison with the Dominion. The Canadian bishops point out that the drink bill of Canada is only one-%urter per head of what it is in Great Britain. St. John, N. B., Aug. 10.â€"Two months ago Eugene MceAuliffe, the 14â€"yearâ€"old son of Jere MeAuliffe, the actor, fell upâ€" der a train and his left leg had to be amputated close to the trunk. Last evenâ€" ing eight physicians performed a skin graft‘ng operation. Some days ago a boy friend gave a large section of skin, which was successfully grafted. Yesterâ€" day a young pig was chloroformed and skin taken from it to cover a great raw weund on MeAuliffc‘s body. The pigskin has completely taken hold and MeAuliffe will recover. This is the first operation of the kind ever attempted in Canada. Montreal, Aug. 10.â€"The Court House was thrown into confusion toâ€"day _ by the daring break for freedom made by Antonio Girouard, one of the most hardened, of _ the younger â€" eriminals in the cells on the ground floor of the Court House, waiting trial on a charge of burglary before Judge Choquet in the Court of Sessions, and by some inâ€" advertence the keys were left in his cell door. Two policemen who were standing in the hall saw the flight, and went after him hot foot, out on the square and west along Notre Dame street. _ Passâ€" ersâ€"by joined in the hue and ery and soon the constables began to creep up on Girouard, who is more or less weakâ€" ened by prison fare. He turned down St. Francois XNavier _ street, and the constables by a desperate spurt _ sueâ€" ceeded in catching him opposite _ the elevator at the foot of the street. He was taken back to the cells and heavâ€" ily ironed. Girouard saw his chance, and, slipâ€" ping open the door, he made a dash at the partition, sealed it and fled along the corridor towards the main enâ€" trance. Successful Operation Performed in St John Hospital. DASH FOR LIBERTY. With Key Left in His Cell Door He Escapes From the Court House, But is Captured After a Long Chase. ANTONIO GIROUARD GIVES MONTâ€" REAL POLICE A RUN. "A sin is always attended by infinite peril. It cannot become so encysted as to becomeh armless. Sins hunt in packs. Admit the first and a second _ comes prowling behind it, and then a third and a fourth, snarling and pushing, until the whole soul, filled by them, has become a veritable wild beast‘s den." Joseph Parker says: "We are apt to think that Saul did all the mischief and David suffered for it. This is an incomâ€" plete view of the case. Saul was the victim of the cruelest torment. All his peace was destroyed. There was bitterâ€" ness in his wine; the charm of sicep perished; the bloom of summer had fadâ€" ed; there was a cruel serpent gnawing at his heart. ‘The way of transgresâ€" sors is hard‘ (Prov. 13:15). Better be a martyr than the persecutor, the opâ€" pressed than _ the oppressor. _ Read Saul‘s inner life, anger, envy, madness, murder, evil scheming, chagrin, hell." Saul‘s history affords an example of the downward tendency of sin. It is like virulent poison that, commencing at one small spot, rapidly eats its way in and in until it consumes the whole body. His first act is one of negative disobedience, his second one of positive disobedience, his third one of rebellion. He begins his animosity against David with a jealous thought; then follows a jealous habit; next an impuisive effort to kill; afterward a deliberate plot to kill. The longer he pursues his purpose the more devilish it becomes. "Jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance" (Prov. 6:34). VII. Beloved. "All Israel and Judah loved David" (v. 16). Men like David are sure to have the love of the people. A nation can but look up to and admire such mer as Washington, Lincoln and Garfield. God will see that they receive a crown who have borne the cross for him. PIGSKIN GRAFTED ON BOY.

MHe has practically deâ€" cided to build two at the same time, each on a different model. The new ship will show _ many changes, suggested by a study of the accident of two days ago. Private individuals already have placed the sum of #£75,000 to the credit of Count Zepwelin for his new enterprise, The count is especially gratified at the receipt of a hearty message of «ymâ€" pathy from the headquarters of the British Balloon Corps at Farnborough,. The police learned from Mrs. Suther land that her busband was insured in the A. 0. U. W. for $1,000, and in anâ€" other fraternal order for $500, with her as beneficiary. _A baukbook found at the house shows he had $450 on deposit. Wilson, the boarder who rode to the hospital with Sutherland in the ambuâ€" lance at the latter‘s request, claims that Sutherland â€" told him noching concernâ€" ing the shooting, re{)eauug he did not know who did it.
