Memory Verses, 9-11 Golden Text, II
Chron. xxxlv, 1 Commentary by the
KeT. D. M. Stearns.
4. "And it came to pass after this t.hnk
-KToash was minded to repair the house of
tne Lord. After the death of .Tnhmhanv
who did right in the sight of the Loid (II
Chron. xx, 32), the story is a sad one of
unbelief and rebellion until Joash at the
age of 7 and under the guidance of Jehoiada
the priest began to do right in the sight of
tne Lora (verses 1-3). It may have been
20 years or more after the death of Jehosha-
phat that the temple, so long neglected,
began again to be honored. The negleot
of the temple meant the neglect of God.
5. "Gather of all Israel money to repair
the house of your God from year to year
and see that ye hasten the matter. " It is
interesting to note that the neglected
house of the Lord was a safe hiding plaoe
for the child Joash for six years (II Kings
xl, 8). What a comment upon the disuse
of God's dwelling place in the midst of
Israel and their utter forgetfulness of God!
This compulsory attempt to raise the mon
ey for repairs is very much like the way
most Christians act now, but it is not the
Lord's way. The Levites probably under
stood this and therefore were slow to obey
the king's command.

of the "Lord, and of the congregation of
Israel for the tabernaole of witness." The
king called for Jehoiada and asked why

The waiter snapped bis fingers vig

then raised bis right band with the
thumb and forefinger held to form a
circle and the other three fingers in the

the coffee quietly and in good order.
"Ain't you going to order my eggs?"
the man asked fearfully.
"Eggs is ordered, sab. Got em on
the fire now," replied the Waiter.
"How is that?" asked the customer
suspiciously.
"I ordered 'em as soon as you gave
me the order, " said the waiter. "All I
got to do is just that, " and again he
made the cabalistio sign with his thumb
and forefinger above his head.
The man was almost overcome by
surprise. At last he had found the place
he had so long sought, where he could
eat in quietness. When he had finished
the eggs and coffee, he sought out the

always provides for it fully. When any
thing seems as if it ought to be done and
there is nothing to do it with, either it is
not tho Lord's work or it is not the time
to do it. But when His work is done in
His way and in His time all is easy. How
few are found as faithful as these men
into whose hands the money was given
and no reckoning kept (II Kings xll, 15).
13. "So the workmen wrought, and the
work was perfected by them, and they set
the house of God in bis state and strength
ened it." The next verse says that the
work was finished, and they had a sur
plus of money. There is no straitness in
the Lord's provision. He does exceeding
abundantly. There is a house now being
builded, the church of God, the body of
Christ, and many are seeking in many
ways to gather money to do the work, and
there is a lack of funds and many hin-Iranoes.

A Cholerw Imsl.L
According to a traveler who baa
spent years in countries where cholera
breeds, a person may become immune
by wearing a small copper amulet over
the pit of the stomach. At the begin
ning of New York's latest cholera scare
he purchased some sheet copper and
made amulets for himself, his wife, his
only child and three or four friends.
then said to the latter: "Don't be
afraid. It is not necessary to run away
from the city no matter if the disease
comes next door. It is impossible for
you to have cholera while the copper is
on vour person. " One of theae friendi
threw away bin amulet recently be
