"So Samuel went and lay down in his place." We are impressâ€" ed by his unquestioning obedience. "Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down." Not to go to sleen, but to lie and listen. "And it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Jehovah; for thy servant heareth." We get here a glimpse int» the hgnrt of the high priest, and we _ "And Jehovah called Samuel again the third time." Note the divine perâ€" severance. God knows his own, and never rests till they know him. "And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me." There is no impatience here, no reâ€" minder of past calls, no counting up of the summons. "And Eli perceived that Jehovah had called the child." He had more insight with Samuel than with his own sons. It is a wise man who perceives that God has a‘ message for a child as well as a man. "Now â€" Samuel did not yet know Jehovah, neither was the word of Jehovah yet revealed unto him." Doubtless he knew Jehovah in the way in which the sons of Eli did not know him. "And Jehovah called yet again, Samuel." God does not often repeat his call when the first call is not heard obediently. "And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me." One suspects that the old man was in the habit of callâ€" ing for his youthful assistant often in the night. "And he answered, I called not, my son; lie down again." Here, to the ordinary boy, was a proâ€" voking matter, but Samuel was not in the least irritated. __"And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me." 1t is not a pleasant matter, to be roused suddenly out of sleep, and boys are very drowsy early in the morning; but Samuel was alert, and sprang to his duty at once. "And he said, I called not; lie down again." Eli had no thought of a divine call, but probâ€" ably conjectured that the lad had been dreaming. "And he went and lay down." But we may well imagine that he did not fall asleep; the voice of the Lord had been too insistent and clear for that. "That Jehovah called Samuel." Ifl orally, it was in so gentle a tone as not to be heard by Eli. "And he said.l Here am I." We see here how prompt and cheerful was Samuel‘s answer to any call for service, since he thought it was Eli who was calling 13â€" him "And the lamp of God was not yet gone out." The lamp was a sacred one, kept burning ali night in the shrine of God, the Holy Place. "And Samuel was laid down to sleep in the temple of Jehovah, where the ark of God was." The ark of the covenant was kept in the Most Holy Place, the innermost division of the taberâ€" nacle. Eli was an old man, and his failing eyesight rendered Samuel‘s aid indisâ€" pensable. "And it came to pass at that time.‘ According to Josephus, Samuel had just completed his twelfth year when the word of Jehovah came to him. "When Eli was lajid down in his place." Commentators differ in reâ€" gard to the place where Samuel and Eli slept. "Now his eyes had begun to wax dim, so that he could not see." THE PLAN OF THE LESSON. SUBJECT :Responoinc to Gop‘s CaAut I.

When it is possible to fnd the ants‘ nest in the ground outside, the whole ant colony may be destroyed by puncâ€" turing the surface with holes and pouring in several tablespoonfuls of carbon bisulphide. Heavy gas is given off by this liquid, and its effect may be strengthened by covering the nest with an old coat or sacking. Howâ€" ever, great care should be taken not to expose carbon bisulphide near fire or flame, because it is very inflamâ€" mable. The most satisfactory material so far discovered for destroying ants, is sodium fluoride, sold by druggists in the form of fine white powder. This powder should be scattered lightly in places frequented by ants, and loft undisturbed unt1! the insects have disâ€" appeared.

The majority ' of the ants in a colony, and the ones most conymonly seen, are wingless unâ€" Ydeveloped female workers which are incapable of reproducing their kind. Each colony also posses one or more true females or "queens" which are responsible for the generation of new individuals. The white, helpless larâ€" vae and pupae which develop from eggs laid by the "queen" are cared for by the workers which may be seen transporting them to a place of safety when the nest is threatened with danger, Ants which enter dwellings will feed on many kinds of foodstuffs, but are particularly fond of swee! ’ and fatty substances. _ Ants are reported from many disâ€" tricts in the Dominion to be particuâ€" larly abundant in dwelling houses this season, All though the majority of the Canadian species of ants live in colonies or nests outdoors they freâ€" quently cause annoyance by invading kitchens and pantries in search of food.
