Song Out of Sorrows.
- Tta David became a kins. In the
school of exile and persecution he
learned Wow to reign.. It was wltlrn
confident step and even eye that. ht
eventually came to his coronation: h
learned that confident ste scaling
the obstacles of the wilderness. ani
that even eye by looking Into the
ever-present face - of dancrer. The
seven years of pursuit by Saul, dur
ing v.hich David "ate bitterness," as
the Chinese say. were the years that
proved the. worth of Jesse's son.
More than that, out of those seven
years were born many or most of- the
immortal Psalms of David, which
have meant more to the human race
than the rise or fall'.' of a myria-1
kinsrs. " The world would be but
slightly interested In Davjd as a kin?
were it not for his "songs . In the
night" Out of '-the- depths 'of h!s
personal sorrows he 'uttered the sen
timents of " the universal heart. The
Psalms a re '.the most contemporan
eous of literature, because they ex

words, v.-hat, men? and .. women are

monly said that the prosperity of this
generation is responsible for its , lack
of great poets, as well as for Its mul
titude of party rhymsters. The j poet
must, 'Hearn In suffering what he
teaches in. song." David sounded the
depths of lonliness, despair and sin.
e're he could -sound the notes which
have vibrated as bugle calls through
tha nations. - '

David had deserved only honor from
Saul and Israel: Instead, he was treated-
with ignominy and Ingratitude.
Things did . not turn out according , to
story-book fashion which is one of
the r shattering - discoveries made by
most young .men who enter upon a
Wide range of activities. There was
danger that David's faith in the veri
ties, and in the old-fashioned re
ligion of, his country mother and fa
ther, would be shaken. He - was
thrown among evil companions who
scoffed at the pious teachings of un
sophisticated home folk.
- But David kept faith. He kept the
best out of his trials, and not the
worst, j Troubles are always chariots;
it Is with us to. choose whether we
shall ride In them or be crushed by
them, iln the first place, David decid
ed to play fair 'He -would nof match

trickery and deception, he determin

In the attempt -
' Even for the sake of Ms own char
acter he could not afford to do a mean
deed. Saul's ingratitude he met with
magnanimity. Twice he spared the
monarch's life, when he had him ab
solutely Iff-his power; for David had
kept his respect for the Lord's anoint
ed. Shrewd David must also have
perceived, in the example of Saul'
degeneracy, how great a price one
must pay for a mean act. .While Saul
yielded to maudlin and inconstant re
morse, or pleaded piteously that every
body was against him, or wept and
reproached himself at the knowledge
of David's mercy, or committed un
warranted murder upon the priests,
David was learning that it only pays
to be big and brave and daring.
Another mistake David avoided Was
the common one of quitting work and
taking to complaining because things
were not going well with him. Many
a person forsakes the Church because
some member thereof has hurt his
feelings. David had been sorely in
jured by the nation's highest repre
sentatives; yet he remained loyal and
patriotic. When Keilah was threat

to its rescue; and even the crass In

These he welded Into a compact fight

company of David's .during his exile
strikingly resembles, in some partic
ulars. Kobin Hood's band of merry

party of revolutionists have more seal

mandarins In Peking. Although for

David held fast to his love for Israel,
to his love for his family and friends
(as witness the stolen Interview with

love for Jehova, In whom his trust

Iiy WILLIAM T. ELLIS.
Turkey is holding an important
place in the day's news. Among the
events of world-wide significance be
ing recorded by the cables, few are
more interesting or portentous than
what has taken place within the past
months In the realm of Abdul llamid.
That ruler, whose heaped-up atroci
ties have cried aloud In the ears of
civilization for vengeance, has sud
denly been forced. Into the role of , re
former, with his whole vast empire
In revolt, he has, been compelled to
yield to the demands of the Youni
Turkish party and proclaim a con
stitutional government. This Is the
pews that a few weeks ago electrified
civilization. In' all the recent awak
enings of the backward and somno
lent nations there has been no more
dramatic pronouncement than this.
What the reform of Turkey means it
Is difficult for Arsons In this land of
freedom to realize. The simple state
ment that there are thousands of
Turkish refugees In this country, who
had fled for their lives from th
Sultan's tyranny, is a window through,
which unspeakable oppression may be
dimly seen. ; AVI these refugees have
been . pardoned by a proclamation - of
amnesty Issued this, month.,

"A reform in .Turkish government
means the lifting of the yoke of in
credible oppressionfrom the neckfj of
millions of people. It means that the
Macedonian atrocities are to end, and

Many persons who today are read
ing, without especial Interest or In
telligence, of the reform -In Turkey
will be glad to tell their children. . a
generation hence, that they were wit
nesses of these epochal changes. Years
tvill be needed to reveal the. full Im
port of these events. Assuming that
the reform Is genuine , and con
tinuing, it means the cessation of un
measured oppression and Injustice,
and an opportunity for millions to live
normal and happy lives. W 1th the re

The causes of the Sultan's i Irade,
which restores in actuality a constitu

people, are various. , Thete I not dis

the part of the ruler himself. . He was
simply forced to take this -momentous
step to save his life. Bvoii titter th:-

by the fact thath habltuaUywears

CURED IN THREE MONTHS
BY CUTICURA REMEDIES
"I take great pleasure In telling you
what a great help it was for me to use
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
for my baby niece. She was suffering
from that terrible torture, eczema. It
was all over her body but the worst was
on her face and hands. II er hands were
so bad that she could not hold anything.
She cried and scratched all the time and
could not.tJefp.nighJi or day from the
scratching, 1 had her under the doc
tor's care for a year and a half and he
seemed to do her no good. I took her
to the best doctor in the city and he said
that she would have the Bores until she
was six years old. But if I had de-
E ended, on the doctor my baby would
ave lost her mind and died from the
want of aid.
'I.tised all the remedies that every
body told me about and I tortured the
child almost to death. Then I saw in
the paper how Cuticura was the thine
for Irritating skin. I bathed her with
warm water and Cuticura Soap and used
the Cuticura Ointment. She was cured
in three months. Now her skin is as
dear and smooth as it could be. I shall
recommend the use of Cuticura wherever
I see the skin in bad condition. Alice

U. Wells:
Cyrus Hamlin was born near Wal

Ills father did when Cyrus wa
an Infant, and his mother was very
poor. While the boy was learning to
be a jeweler he discovered a liking for
books, and decided to gro through col
lege and become a minister.
With wonderful energy and re
sourcefulness, he carried out this pur
pose without any money except what
he earned, graduating from Bedowln
college and Bangor Theological Sem
inary. ' '
In December, 1833. he sailed for
Turkey as a missionary. Constanti
nople was the scene of his labors till
his return in 1873.
He promptly learned Armenian,
Turkish, and modern Greek, and was
set at 4he task of forming and con
ducting a theological seminary for the
training of native . preachers and
teachers, " This task he accomplished
in spite of almost Insuperable obsta
cles put in his way by native bigotry
and intolerance, - -

In the. 'rt -p ff - -d work. As a

Mr. John A. Oaten at Js Hopkins'
Hospital, Ralllirone. :
To the Editor: It , wUe a cause
of genuine regret .to the jtjny friends
of Mr. John A. Oates, titl chairman
of-the Anti-Saloon LeagU'SUhat since
the campaign his healili j has been
very much impaired, nesitating a
visit to Johns Hopkins fpg treatment,
which, as I learn, required 'an oper
ation, though not -of a ser$bs or dan
gcreus nature. Before 3ei sold out
the North Carolina Baptitet! I learned
that under the advice of ?eciallst In
Richmond that he woulill be .com
pelled" to discontinue thistrenuous
life he was living,.and In aumlng the
duties and1 rfcsponsibilitm? of the
chairmanship of the .sVnti-Saloon
League was too great tasf.upon his
physical energies. The vjVk done by
Mr. Oates In the trampalgniSor prohibi
tion, was Immense; and tgreat vic
tory gained was due most lively to his
splendid management. 5tt besides
the Iops of. time from hifewn busi
ness he -became personalif j responsi
ble by note for a large sam to meet
campaign expenses, and ill am told
much of this remains uiJpaid. This
matter should be looked -to and his
burden should be lifted from his
shoulders. I am, relIablrinformed
that for, eight months Mf lOates al
most entirely relinquished Ihls own
business trt'cause of the ff piands of
the campaign upon him an the phys
ical collapse which has foKied since.
If there ar dues. yet luapald, for
3
the,- prosecuting of tl campaign It
should be known and I am confident
the many friends .of Mr. Oates .will
lift this burden from his shoulders,
. Th'e' whole J5?ate oweshim a debt
o.f, gratitude!', ftrjj,his great aervlees
which It really can never pay.
