THE INTERNATIONAL S8UNDAY-SCHOOL LESSON.
8-23
Fourth Quarter. Lesson V. 2 Kings vi,
October 30th, 1904,
ELISHA AT DOTHAN.
Next to an actual defeat for a command-
ing officer is the humiliation of having his
strategic movements anticipated hy his
enemy. Here is an old Bible story of how
a certain king of Syria was thus put to
confusion. Hesaid in the secrecy of his
council of war, ‘I will make an ambus-
cade for the unwary Israelites atsuck and
auch a point.”” But his intended victims
evaded his well-made trap. Again he
said, ‘‘I will make a predatory incursion
upon the enemy’s territory at such and
such a point.”’” But, behold, to his con-
fusion he found the Israelites intrenched
at that very point, at the very hour, in
overwhelming numbers and in battle ar-
ray.
The quaint narrative says this occurred
not once nor twice. It happened continu-
ally and presistently. So much so that the
king knew it could not be a coincidence.
He could only account for it by treason
among his staff officers. So he cried in
| a rage, “Who of us is for the king of
| Israel?’” Some one in Benhadad’s council
| of war knew how the enemy was informed
i of the Syrians’ movements, for he said,
“There is no traitor among us, O king,
| but Elisha, the prophet, that is in Israel,
| telleth the king of Israel the words that
| thou speakest in thy bed-chamber.’’ Ben-
t hadad showed the characteristic obtuse-
i ness of a heathen when he undertook to
| cope with the infinite power and wisdom
of God. As if the Omniscience which had
kept Elisha informed of the king’s secrets
could not acquaint him with the danger of
his own person! As if Omnipotence could
not rescue him!
At break of day the prophes and bis ser-
vant go to the hilltop to pray. They look
down at Dothan, nestling there on the
bench of the hill, an emblem of peace and
security. The keen eye of the young man
pierces beyond the city wall and through
the gray of the morning. His eye dilates
with wonder. His cheek blanches with
fear. What has he seen? The city in-
vested, the Syrian cohorts gleaming with
purpleand gold and the sheen of their
spears! There stand the chariots of brass,
with the pitiless sickle-blades in their
wheels. It would be a forlorn hope that
would cast iteelf against the impenetrable
living fortress. A cry escaped the young
man’s lips, ‘‘Alas! my master! How shall
we do?’ The prophet does not upbraid
his timorous servant. He bas a kindly
sympathy. He is solicitous that he shall
be confirmed and established. i
The prophet himself is fearless. His
faith is as immovable as the mountain on
which he stands. Bat this trinmphant
courage was not born of an instant—it is
an evolution of years. He bas witnessed
the faithfulness of God in the emergencies
{ is not, a wall is as a spider’s web.”’
of the sixty-three yeas in which he has
beld the prophetic office. How confident- '
ly can he say to his trembling servant at
bis side, '‘Fear not, for they that be with |
us are more than they thatbe with them.” |
The prophet commends his servant to God.
He asks for him that which he does not
need for himself—some vicible wanifesta- |
tion of Divine power to offset the brave |
array of the enemy. ‘‘Lord, I pray Thee
open his eyes that he may see.”’
The prophet’s prayer is quickly and
graciously answered. The protective forces
of grace and providence for the time take
visible and martial form. It is a brilliant
and inspiring panorama. Pictures of flam-
ing chariots with angel charioteers move
before the wondering eyes of the prophet’s
servant, serapbhic guards mass about the
two who stand so solitary and defenseless

Roberts, and the following names appeared

that the unseen is the real, the invisible | Dr. William H. Roberts, Rev. Dr. Charles

With blazoned banners and heaven-tem-

Like a dim candle in the noonday blaze:
The mount is full of angels.”

This incident remarkably illustrates she
omniscience of God. The Syrian monarch,
in the seclusion of his barem—in his pal-
ace at Damascus, as he lay on his ivory
couch, meditating his movements against
Israel, speaks in soliloquy of his plans.
The God that made the ear hears him in
Damascus, and communicates the king's
purpose to his servant, Elisha, in Samaria.

The slowness of the human heart to ap-
prehend God is forther indicated by the
Syrian king. Hesends an army to make
the prophet a prisoner. He had learned
nothing in his failure to cope with the
omniscience of God. He challenges
omaipotence.

This effort to arrests the prophet sets
forth at once the temerity and impotence

Progress of Cancer Hospital.
Suggestions of the past few months shap-
ed themselves into a realization of fact
yesterday afternoon, when, in the office of
Dr. J. Solis Coben, No. 1824 Chestnut
street, au application for a charter for the
‘‘American Oncologic Hospital for the
Study and Treatment of Cancers and other
Tumors’’ was signed. The application

as incorporators: George A. Stuart, Jr.,
Dr. J. Solis Coben, Frank L. Patterson,
Dr. Addinell Hewson, Dr. Boardman Reed,
Richard T. Cadbury, Dr. G. Beton Mas-
sey, Rev. Perry S. Allen, B. K. Wilbar,
C. Wilson Roberts, Dr. H. R. Swayne,
Dr. C. 8S. Desvernine and William Calvin
Moore. These, in addition to the follow-
ing, were named as trustees: George H.
Earle, Jr., Rev. Floyd W. Tompkins, Rev.
! Wood, Rev. James P. Sinnott, William H.
Scott and Charles H. Oberge.
“Within about six weeks,”’ said Attor-
ney Roberts after the meeting, ‘‘we hope
| to have oar charter, and then the work of
selecting a site and erecting the hospital
will be begun in earnest. It is estimated
that there are at persent 3000 people in
Philadelphia and 12,000 in the State suf-
fering with some form of cancer, who are
in need of such a hospital. It shali be the
duty of the new institution to study the
disease and, aside from applying the re-
sults of such study to the treatment of
patients, to publish hooks and pamphlets
on the subject.’”’
The location of the proposed Oncologic
Hospital is as yet uncertain, several sites
being under consideration. The two most
favored, however, are respectively in West
Philadelphia and the central part of the
city.
——According to the Cleveland Leader,
an ill-paid preacher went to his deacon to
solicit an increase of salary. ‘‘Salary !”’
cried the deacon. ‘‘Salary!”’ Why, I thought
you worked for souls !”” ‘‘And so Ido,”
meekly replied the impecunious minister,
‘‘but I cannot eat souls ; and if I could, it
would take a good many souls the size of
yours to make a dish.

In Kansas After the War.
A writer iz the Boston Herald says after
the civil war a Boston man was stopping at
the Planters’ House, the principal hotel of
Leavenworth, Kans, and coming down to
breakfast late one morning he partook of
that meal with the landlord.
“Well, Mr.——"’said the landlord, ‘‘how
do vou like onr western country ?’’
“I like it very well,’’ said the Boston
man, ‘‘or would if society here were in a
more settled state.”
‘‘Nonsense,’’ said the landlord, ‘‘our so-
ciety is as settled as Boston.”’
Just then a man named Anthony burst
into the dining room and out of a back
door, with a man named Jennison pumping
lead at him at every jump, and following
out into the outbuilding in the rear of the
hotel.
‘‘How about society being as settled here
as in Boston ?’’ said the Boston man as he
and the landlord crawled ouf from under
| opposite sides of the table.
**T had forgotten about that Anthony,Jen-
nison matter,’’ said the landlord, ‘but if
Doc. Jennison has caught up with Anthony
that is settled by this time.
Oysters Favor the Silent Candsdate.

er to the Presidency by a peculiar omen,
which he declares never fails. The delicious
Mahon’s oysters, the Deleware Bay salts,

Norton declares that never in any year
have the Delaware Bay salts been both fat

Now, in 1904, these silent prophets have
