VETOES KILL THREE BILLS There Are Now In the Hands of the Governor 696 Bills Some Vetoes and Some Measures That Havo Been Approved. Harrtaburg. The Legislature which adjourned sent to Governor Brumbaugh 1075 bills, a number which were recalled by resolutions of the two Houses. There are now In the hands of the Gov ernor 696 bills.. Exclusive of the re called bills the action of the Governor has been as follows: Approvals of gen era! bills, 226; approvals of appropri ations, 42; vetoes, 81. Governor Brumbaugh announced vetoes of two bills providing for in creases of salaries, and also of the bill providing for a change in levying of taxes In townships for highway lighting. The vetoes were the first of a series expected to be made by the dovernor. In vetoing the House bill providing for increase of salaries of clerks In the office of the Recorder of Deeds of Philadelphia the Governor says: "Such salary matters ought to be determined by the local authorities who know the facts, and not by the State, whose In terest is remote and whose knowledge of the facts Is scant. The counties have tho obligation to pay; why not the right to determine salaries? The State is not liable for the increased cost of this service; why should it decree the increase? It Is a local matter." The Governor also vetoed the bill to Increase salaries of county officials In Luzerne and Lackawanna counties and says that.lt Is not manifest why theso officials should be singled out for the Increase. He says the bill as drawn Is not equitable, and that people have protested against the measure. "There is no evidence that better service would ensue," adds the Governor. In his veto of the township light tax bill the Governor says to change the plan now existing would be an In fringement upon rights, and that in his opinion the present law is all right. A change would work an Injustice. He closes with this remark: "Any law that discourages where It should en courage laudable establishment of owned homes is not good law." The Governor announced his ap proval of the Powell "war garden" bill, which makes it a misdemeanor, punishable by not over a year in prison, or $100 fine, for anyone to steal, remove or destroy any seed or plant sown or planted in gardens. The Governor approved eight other House bills, including the following: Forbidding power-driven vehicles from going over bridges at the rate cf more than six miles an hour. Requiring filing of certificates with Secretary of the Commonwealth by all persons engaged in business under assumed or fictitious names. Giving poor districts right to take land for buildings or farming pur poses, and providing means cf pay ing damages therefor. Validating satisfaction of mortgages In certain cases. Providing for construction of pub lic Improvements in Philadelphia on the unit principle. Providing for changes in State high way routes in Montour county. Amending public Improvements and eminent domain lien act of June 11, 1915, by excepting proceedings to as certain damages and benefits for mu nicipal street or sewer Improvements. Regulating election of first-class townehip commissioners, and providing a method whereby Courts may number election districts. State Treasury Strong. The receipts in the general" fund of the State Treasury during the month of June were greater than tho total balance In 1(11 State funds on Juno 30, 1916, according to reports of tho past month Just closed. The flnsncial condition of the State has not been better for several years for the total balance of all funds now is J7.SfiO.795, while a year ago the total balance was ?2,204,922. At that timo the general fund, or the working capital of the Commonwealth, was fl.095.3S0. The general fund balance last August got below the $1,000,000 mark. While the receipts during the past month wore heavy, amounting to $2,6SS,S34 In tho general fund aionn, tho payments also were largo and $2.1182.796 was paid out of this fund. The total receipts for the month were $2,837,053 and the payments were $150,000 in excess of this amount, be ing $2,985,494. For Elasie Contracts. Governor Brumbaugh approved the Stern bill, which permits Philadel phia to award contracts by tho unit system. Tho measure, which was drafted by City Solicitor Connelly, ia an amendment to the Bulllt Charter act, under which he city waB required to appropriate tho tota sum Involved in the construction of a public Im provement before the contract could he- let. The Stern bill permits contracts to be awardod for a portion of the pro posed Improvement. Cat's Estate Shifty. Deputy Attorney General Horace W.

The Devotional Use of the Bible By REV. HOWARD W. POPE Moody Dibit Isttitult, Chicago 22 TEXT Give u this day our dully bread. -Matt. How one shall rend the Bible de pends largely on whnt he Is mullns It for. The Iilble is n n ull-urotiiu! book nnd serves m n n y purposes, but It is well to have In mind some definite pur pose In all one'f reading. All stringed In struments quickly get out of tune. The notion of the atmosphere anil constant vibra tion in playing, re lax the tension of the strings so thnt thev need to be tuned very often. No mutter how good the violin Is, It needs to be tuned evcrv day, and often ninny times a day. Jinn is like a violin. He soon get out of tune with God. The wear nnd tear of life, and the demornllzlnc at mosphere which sin creates, ho uffeets bis disposition thnt he needs to be brought Into hnrmony with God every morning. It Is not surprising, when we consider the subtlety of sin, nnd the wenkness of tho flesh, rather it is Stranw that a harp of a thousand strings, Should keep In tune so long. Nothing will bring the believer Into touch with God so soon as a little tnste of the divine Word. For devotlonnl purposes the psalms are perhaps the best rending, because they cover so wide a range of experience. Here we find aspiration nnd confession, Joy and sorrow, adoration and praise. Here we behold tho cnlm confidence which grows out of n sublime faith : "Tho Lord Is m shepherd ; 1 shall not want." Agnln we meet the bitter anguish which cenm from Ingratitude, or nn requited lo , or the ecstusy,of sin forgiven, or M.e passionate plen for mercy as Jn ;" fifty-first psalm, or the shout of trli jih In the thirty-second psnlm. It Is .'.ouhtful If there Is any experience In l"e for which we cannot find n duplies-; In the psulter, and, noting how the m.in after God's own heart behaved In similar emergen cies, we are unconsciously led into the same feeling. Morning and Eventide. In the morning read the nineteenth psalm nnd at eventide the eighth psalm. If you are going on a Journey, Psnlm 21 Is appropriate. If In per plexity, rend Psulin 87. If you art grateful, choose Psalm 105, or Psalm IOC, or Psnlm 107. If your heart needs searching, rend. Psnlm 130, which be gins with the words, "O Lord, thou hnst searched me, nnd known me," and nfter a sublime description of God's omniscience, closes with the prayer that only. on honest heart can utter: "Search me, O God, und know my heart: try me and know my thoughts: and see if there he any wicked way In me, nnd lend me In the way everlast ing." If It Is comfort you need, you will find It In ubundnnce In I'siilms 84, 01 and 103. The Gospels are also excellent for devotlonnl reading because there we come In contact with the words nnd works of Jesus. We see how lie lived In the home nnd by the wayside, In the cnrpenter'8 shop, nnd by the open grave. We see him In public life nnd In private ministry always the snine, never hurried, never worried, nlwnys thinking of others nnd never of him self. We see him playing with the children, watching the birds on the trees, the growing groin nnd the fad ing flowers. In everything he snw God's love nnd cure, nnd from all things nnturnl he drew some spiritual lessons. Tho epistles are especially helpful to the mature Christian ns re vealing tho relation of 1 lie believer to his fellow man; to the church, the state, and the perishing world. How Long. If It be asked how much one should read at a time for devotlonnl purposes, let me answer with an Illustration. I once saw a picture of the disciples on the way to Kmmnus. The Muster has Just left them nnd the two men are looking nt each other In glud astonish ment. One of them Is holding both hnnds over his heart as lie says with rapture, "Did not our hearts burn within us, while he tnlked with us by the way, .and while he opened to us the Scriptures?" He cnu almost feel his heart burn still ns he recalls the memory of that blessed wulk. If you ask how long one shull rend his Bible for devotlonnl purposes, I answer, "Reud until your heart burns nnd your soul thrills Willi the con sciousness of God's npprovul." You may read a chapter or a book or a single verso, no mutter how much or how little, but rend, If you enn, until you are consciously tn touch with God, nnd then, with the Father's morning kiss upon your Hps, you arc ready to aieet tho outside world. Some pcnplo feel that they cntinot spare timo for tho morning watch, hut I question whether any child of God can nfford to do without It. Our souls need to be fed dully as well as our bodies, and tho Bible is the soul's proper food. "Sinn shnll not live by breud nlone, but by every word that proceedeth out of tho mouth of God." The Morning Watch. George Sluller's testimony regarding the morning wutch Is very vnlmthlo: "The first thing a child of God has to do morning by morning Is to obtain food for his soul. And whnt Is food for the soul? Not prayer, but tho Word of God; not the simple rending of the Word, so that it passes through our minds as water runs through a pipe, but considering whnt we rend, pondering over It, nnd applying It tc our hearts. .When we prny, we spenl to God. When we read the Bible, God speaks to us." MmnoNAL siiWrsaiooi Lesson fBy E. O. 8EU.EK8, ActliiK Director ot tn! Sunday Bchool Course of the Moody Bible Institute of Chlougo.) (CVpyrlKhl, 1017. Woitrrn Nrwapiiprr 1'nlon 1 LESSON FOR JULY 15. HEZEKIAH, THE FAITHFUL KING. LEBHON TEXT-II Chron. 30:1. GOLDEN TEXT Ho lhat . n,mlh in God must believe that lie Is, and thut he is a rewnrder of them that diligently seek hlm.-Heb. 11:6. The reformation under Hezeklah is one of the bright und attractive spots In the hitter history of the kingdom of Israel. It was o most thorough refor mation nnd God set his seul upon It In many wonderful wuys. Teachers ought to give their classes a compre hensive view of all that Hezeklah did, as recorded in II Chron., chapters 20-32. I. Hezeklah' Proclamation, (vv. 1-6). The proper Introduction to this lesson would be to return to chnpter twenty-nine nnd note the restoration of the worship of Jehovuh. How It began In one mnti's heart, Hezekluh ; how be called the people to be clenn (110:1.1), then 'called upon a cleansing of the house of God and Its restoration (vv. 18, 10). How he called them to renewed sucrlllce and worship (vv. 20, 21). The restoration of the sin offering nnd of the burnt-offering, und the result of these offerings In the Le vlticul music and In the worship of tho great congregation (20, 28). The se quel of song ulwnys follows and no compnnles a trne revival of religion. Having consecrated themselves unto the Lord, Hezeklah sends out this proclamation. The consecration of the people, ns referred In chnpter 20, was very complete. (Sec vv. 31-30.) Heze kluh was a man of deep discernment ns well as of true piety. lie saw the meaning of the sncrlflce of redemption ond put the pnssover forward us the very tienrt-center of the worship of Jehovah. (See vv. 1, 2.) Whoever un derstands the pnssover, understands God's way of salvation. (See Exodus 12:13-23; I Cor. 5:7, 8; Rom. 3:25, 20; John 1 :20.) Hezeklah did not confine Ids cnll to those of Israel ulone, but extended It beyond Its borders to those of Kphrnlm, thus manifesting the true missionary spirit. Hezeklah had am ple Scriptural warrant kit plug this pnssover out of Its regular order (vv. 0-13). God is not a God of time or pluce. Wherever obedience Is possible, whether It be a matter of time or not, God approves. Hezeklah, however, did not net upon his own Initiative, but sought counsel. (See v. 2.) Tho mun who Is the most clearly led of God Is the man who is most eager and anxious to know how God Is leading other men and will listen most patient ly to their counsel. The (net that tho people had not "gathered themselves together nt Jerusnlem" for a long time, might have warranted a fur ther delay. Not so with this enthusi astic young king. He was not bound by precedent, but wus anxious to pleuse God. II. Hezeklah' Exhortation (vv. 7 13). Hezeklah begun his exhortation by calling attention to the trespasses of their fathers (v. 7). At the same time be reminds them thnt if God gave them over to desolation because they themselves were stiff-necked (v. 8) nnd yielded not themselves unto tho Lord to enter bis sunctunry, which he had snnctlfled unto them, they would come under the fierceness of God's wrath, for they had turned from tho Lord; they hnd "trespassed against the Lord God of their fathers." Because of that trespass God had "given them up to desolation." Llterully he had made them "on astonishment." This astonishment nnd desolation was well known, "as ye see" (v. 7). Anyone with eyes open can see today the deso lation of Individuals, of fnmllles, com munities ond nations who trespuss against God." For a generation tve have had the deity of Christ and the Inspiration of his Word called into question und thnt the Individual mnn Is the dlctntor of his own conscience nnd life, and It Is becnuse men hnvo departed from their faithful allegiance to Jesus Christ and full to obey his conunnnd, thnt we see the strife and desolation of today. The first departure caused people to be "stiff-necked" and Jehovah Is cull ing them to repentance, but they would not hear (see Ch. 80:13; Ex. 82:0; Rom. 10:21). In place of this "stlff neckness" of their hearts Hezekluh entreats them to turn again to the Lord and not to be stilt-necked ns were their futhcrs (v. 8), thnt if they will turn ngnln unto the Lord (v. 0) they will find compnsplon bo that they shull again enter his tvweious and merciful dealings. Having V elded themselves they were to entei Into communion with lilm and "enter ir.to his 6nnctu nry, which he hnd sanctified forever." They were also to serve him. Slost blessed results were to follow for thein and for their brethren and their chil dren, but all of this bright prospect Is conditioned upon repentunce, surren der, communion and service, which Is bused upon the fact that Jehovah "Is gracious and merciful" (Ex. 34:0, 7; Ps. 80:5; Jonah 4:2; Shirk 7:18). Then, even as now, there were those who would not yield themselves to God's gracious Invitation. As the priests passed through the country of Kphrnlm and Slanasseh, even unto Ze bultin, they were "laughed to scorn and some mocked" (v. 10). Alas thnt they did so, ns we reud their sub.se qiiciit history! Yet even in theso places there wero some who "hum bled themselves nnd enme to Jerusa lem," and In Judnh the hand of God whs to glvo them one heart to do the conmituvditicnts of the king nnd of Hie princes (v. 12). If we are faithful ambassadors of Jehovah, he will blesg our eiTorts, but we must expect to be laughed at and to be mocked. This, however, does not delay tho wruth of Jehovah, the escaping from which there la remedy. Tho wise accepted und humbled themselves ; the fools fell by the wayside.

"I remember," said Sir lilwurd, "when a little son of mine came to me nnd snld 'Futher, I want to join the navy class at school.' I said, 'What rubbish I Vim are going to be a luw yer.' He told me plainly that I was wrong, and I explained to hlin how much better It would be to make mon ey In the Temple than lose It ut sen. He snld, 'You don't seem to recognize the importance of the navy; It Is the grent connecting link between the mother country and the colonies.' "I replied, 'Well, If you put It on that high plane, I must alter my views.'
