LESSON FOR JANUARY 10
DEBORAH AND BARAK DELIVER
ISRAEL.
LFPSON TEXT-JikIkis 4:4-l
GOLDEN TEXT Tin- righteous cried,
and Jehovah heard and delivered them
out of all their troubles. Ps. 34:17 R. V.
There are two inspired accounts of
this victory, one in prose (ch. 4) and
one in poetry (Judges 5). They pre
sent different views of the same
event. Israel had been oppressed for
20 years under Jabin and Slsera, his
chief captain (4:2) though it seems
to have been that the northern tribes
of Naphtali, Asher and Zebulun, the
Galilee of Christ's day, were chiefly
concerned.
Mother In Isrjfcl.
I. Deborah's Call to Service, vv. 4-9.
As the people forsook God he forsook
them, and they became easy prey. If
we withdraw from his service we also
withdraw from his protection. Al
though Joshua bad burned Hazor
(Joshua 11:1-11), yet because of Is
rael's backsliding It Is now strong
enough to become the ruler. It is so
with sin allow it to exist and It will
conquer. When, however, Israel re
pented and cried unto God (v. 3) he
raised up a deliverer and in this case
it was a "mother in Israel" (ch. 6:7).
The word Deborah means "bee," and
It is suggested that "she answered
her name by her Industry, sagacity
and usefulness to the public, her
sweetness to her friends and sharp
ness to her enemies" (Matthew Hen
ry). Her husband's name is given
but cone of his achievements. From
her dwelling place at Jebus, as she
sat beneath a palm tree she gave forth
her wisdom and judgment to the peo
ple who brought their difficulties be
fore her (Ex. 18:13; Deut. 17:8-12)
Judgment of sin always precedes any
manifestation of grace (I Cor. 11:31
32). Deborah, the Judge, recognized
the gravity of the situation, for she
was not only a Judge, but a prophetess
by divine appointment (II Pet. 1:21)
When she called Barak at once recog
nized her note of authority (v. 6)
Deborah gave Barak explicit Instruc
tion and direction. In this chapter
only the two tribes cost interested
are mentioned (5:17, 18).
Bold, Sagacious Lssder.
II. Barak's Conquest of 8lsera, w.
10-16. Barak was a bold, sagacious
leader and chose one of the world's
best and most famous battlefields, Es-
draelon. Barak led his men to ML
Tabor, from which could be seen the
whole region where Slsera's armies
were spread out upon the plain. From
chapter 5 it appears that some came
to the battle from the tribes of
Manasseh and Issachsr (5:14, 15) and
that others were expected who failed
to obey the summons (5:15, 17). From
the slopes of Mt. Tabor, Deborah and
Barak saw Slsera and bis Iron char
iots advancing across the plain. One
of the descendants of Hobab, Moses'
brother-in-law (Num. 24:22 R. V. m..
and Judges 1:16) had revealed the
place of Barak's camp (v. 11). Heber
should have been In the land of Judah
and Simeon and not in such close
proximity to the enemies of Israel.
Josephus says that when Barak saw
Slsera's army drawn up, and attempt
ing to surround the mountain of his
encampment his heart failed him, and
he determined to retire to a place of
greater safety. Deborah, however,
-urged Barak to attempt the battle,
"for this Is the day in which the Lord
hath delivered Slsera Into thine
hand." The thing was as sure to be
done as if it were done already. As
we read verses 11 and 12, together
with 5:17-19, it would look as though
Slsera seemed to have the advantage
against naran anu iub ien mousauu
men. Slsera did not, however, count
upon Barak's powerful ally God. "Is
not Jehovah gone out before them?"
Deborah had enthusiasm and zeal, but
needed Barak's action. She depended
upon the -ure word of God and was
devoid of fear (Rom. 8:31). She knew
that victory was certain, for God had
said eo (v. 7). Her charge, "Up,
Barak!" was a clarion call Jid served
to nerve the entire army of Israel.
Verse 15 tells us who It was that won
the battle that day (see also 5:20, 21;
Josh. 10:10; t Chron. 15:15-17). Even
the stars fought against Slsera, mean
ing that God turned the elements to the
advantage of Israel's army. Showers
of meteors have been recorded in this
land In recent times and 5:21 tells of
the floods of water that "swept away,"
overthrew, the chariots of Slsera The
word discomfited," we are told,
scarcely .uggests the sudden terror
and confusion which fell upon Slsera's
army. Like all of God's victories, it
was most complete.

NEW YEAR BUSINESS OUT LOOK
Don C. Scilz, business manager of
the New York World, says people who
have been loaded down with all sorts
of fears on account of the war are now
shaking thorn off. What we need now
is an intelligent extension of credit, i
One effect of establishing the reserve I
banks is the doing away with the '
bankers' excuses for not extending I
credit when business men have sought
their aid. There is a tendency among
business men to loosen up. There is
going to be a notable expansion of,
business. ',
Howard Davis, manager of the
New York American, says I am not
banking on the war as a stimulant to
business in America. Not until peace
has been declared will we receive tne
real business benefits that must fol
low the prolonged conflict. When the
nations get through fighting and the
soldiers return to their homes and re
sume the usual vocations, then the
United States will enter upon a pe
riod of great prosperity. i
John C. Coak, business manager of
the New York Evening Mail, savs the
future is most promising. Peopl'.
have cot over their war scare
and no longer think something dread
ful is about to happen.
Another New York business man
says we rannot shut our eyes to the
fact that America will profit by the
war. Foreign nations must turn to
us for many things they hitherto pro
duced themselves.
Another New Y'ork business man
says' I do not believe the war will
bring us any great amount of pros
perity, at least for the present, but
that the amount of American made
goods will be increased. The war has
cut off the importation of hundreds
of millions of dollars worth of goods
that can be manufactured in Ameri
ca. An optimistic prevails everywhere
in business circles.
Another business man views it this
way: With a demand for all of the
products of the United States created
by a war which has laid a paralysing
hand on the industries of Europe;
with manufacturing stimulated by
this demand in almost every State in
the Union, 1915 should see the begin
ning of a prosperity never before
equaled in the history of our business
life.
Another intelligent New Yorker
says that the European war is bound
to make large demands in this coun
try for supplies. That means, the
United States will be benefited tempo
rarily at least, because of the misfor
tunes of other countries, but it is
true where there is so great a loss of
life and property that all nations of
the world are bound to suffer. The
United States must pay a part of the
tremendous debt caused by the war.
And still another New York busi
ness man at the top says: There is no
escaping the fact, unpleasant as it
may be, the United States will even
tually profit very greatly by and
through the great war. Virtually the
whole of Europe is engaged in the
work of destruction; production and
construction has almost ceased, except
for the manufacture of munitions of
war. It is not exaggeration to say
that -two million people will be de
pendent upon American products for
sustenance. American farms, mines,
mills, railroads and business houses
will be overworked to meet this de
mand, which will be additional to the
normal consumption of our own citi
zens.
This merino hnttnr flmps and prnnn.
sion nf a kimis of business.
These are optimistic views of the
outlook, but after all business can
never beg and while people are afraid,
and for our part we do not see how
the war can greatly help America ex
cept the farmers because the Kurope
ans have to eat but they can econo
mise on everything else and make old
clothes last longer. There will be
economy there here and everywhere
long after th war ends, but let us
take a hopeful view.

THE MAN WHO READS IS THE
MAN WHO LEADS
The newspapers that prosper and
live long are cash in advance papers.
The newspapers of the South have
been mainly on a credit basis and havo
cked out a mere existence while the
newspapers of the North on n ?ash
basis have been prosperous and have
lived and been more useful . News
papers everywhere are at last begin
ning to appreciate the advantages of
a cash in advance system. The peo
ple are beginning to expect it. The
mixed system now in use by most pa
pers is a mistake, part cash and pari
credit. The system must be changed.
There is too much loss in the credit
system. Too many subscribers fail to
pay when their time is out and say
they asked to have the paper stopnei
and therefore refuse to pay. Of course
they can be made to pay so long ar
they take the paper out of the office
but it is a small matter so many edi
tors fail to force the payment.

NATIONAL FOREST FIRES IN 1911
The season of 1914, according to the
officials of the forest service, carried
greater danger from fire to the na

establishment of the national forests.

While detailed reports have not yet
been received appraising the exact
loss to the government through the
forest fires, a preliminary estimate
shows that the loss of merchantable
timber will probably not exceed $400,

but later estimates materially reduced
the amount. Through the work of the
protective force the fires this year

Dr. E. L. Stamcv, medical din
tor
of the Keely Institute at (ir.-i i;-, i.:n
N. C, a recognized authority on i.l
colioiism, closed an address to the
students of the Stale Normal Co!lcir
some time ago as follows:

As a final warning to tbe young wo

cr said: "The young women of our
land must be taught that they cannot

fir, sycamore, and soft maple to equal
a ton, and two cords of cedar, red
wood, poplar, catalpa, Norway pine,
cypress, basswood, spruce, and white
pine.
Equal weights of dry, non-resinous
woods, however, are said to have prac
tically the same heat value regardless
of species, and as a consequence it can
be stated as a general proposition
that the heavier the wood the more
heat to the cord. Weight for weight,
j however, there is very little difference
between various species: the average
heat for all that have been calculated
is 4,600 calories, or heat units, per
kilogram. A kilogram of resin will
develop 9,400 heat units, or about
twice the average for wood. As a
consequence, resinous woods have a
greater heat value per pound than
non-resinous woods, and this increased
value varies, of course, with the resin
content.

to the amount of moisture present.
Furthermore, cords vary as to the
amount of solid wood they contain,
even when they are of the standard
dimension and occupy 128 cubic feet
of space. A certain proportion of
this space is made up of air snaces

The fuel qualities of chestnut adapt
it particularly to work in brass found
ries, where it pives just the required
amount of heat and it is therefore iu
favor. Coastwise vessels in Flori'.i
pay twice as much for Florida button
wood as for any other, because it
burns with an even heat and with a
minimum amount of smoke and ash.
The principally disadvantage of t'i '
resinous pines is their oily black
smoke.
PROMPT ACTION WILL STOP
YOUR COUGH
When you first catch a Cold (often
indicated by a sneeze or cough) break
it up at once. The idea that "It does
not matter" often leads to serious
complications. The remedy which
immediately and easily penetrates the
lining of the throat is the kind de
manded. Dr. King's New Discovery
1 soothes the irritation,
loosens the
phlegm. You feel better at once.
"It seemed to reach the very spot of
my Cough" is one of manv.heneat
