He is a ‘‘fire-tipped tongue sublime;”’ his. nature glowing, intellect lucid, will imperions, imagination bril- liant. Amos is the only prophet who approach- es Isaiah in the bigh polish of his siyle. Yet she prophet’s style is just as certainly subordinated to the substance of his mes- sage as his personal history is. It is a fearful and fearless, and at the same time highly patriotic, arraignment of his native land. King, nobles, priests, people are Charge, specifications, evidence, argumeut, verdict, sentence—all are here. The call so con- fession, contrition, and reformation; the profler of forgiveness and - cleansing; the assurance of peace and joy; the promise of personal and national - security and pros- ity—these, too, are all here. We seem to Pe stumbled upon the heart of the New Testament in the center of the Old. No wonder Isaiah is called the Fifth Evan- gelist. Calvin thinks Isaiah may have affixed a synopsis of his message to the temple-door, much as Martin Lusher nailed his ninety- five theses to the church-door in Witten- berg. If so, the greatest possible publi- |oity wonld have been given to it and authentic copies readily made of it. But whether so or not, this was a light which “| could not be hid under any bushel. I PLEASANT FIELDS OF HOLY WRIT was noble, courageous, patriotic contribu- tion to the making of a better State. Nothing is kept back for the sake of court favor. “‘Set thine bouse in order, for thou shalt die and not live”’ is his fearless message to the king. Each bold utterance is provaked by some impending national peril—threatened in- vasions of Syria, Israel, Edom, Philistia, and Assyria. He deals not so mnch with the past or future as with the present. He is pre-eminently the prophet of the present: tense. His message has to do with cur- rent events. He does not deai with his ancestors or with posterity, but with his contemporaries. He conviets of sin. di- rects in duty, consoles in trouble. There is nothing tentative in his judgment, noth- ing equivocal in his demands. He is im- perious and masterful, but at the same time statesmen-like. It has been aptly said that perhaps there has never been another prophet like Isaiah, who stood with his head in the clouds and his feet on the solid earth, with his heart in the things of eternity and with mouth and hand in the things of time, with his spirit in the eter- nal counsel of God and his body in a very definite moment of history. The suggestion of this particular para- graph for special study is exceedingly happy, for it is practically the whole proph- eoy in epitome. ‘‘Hear, O heavens!” is a ‘‘grave and magnificent exordinm,”’ like the solemn voice of the crier in the court of heaven, calling the case of Jehovah against His people.

THE TEACHERS’ LANTERN. The very position of Isaiah in the canon | is significant. Although. written later thau others, it yet s first among the prophecies. Isaiah is easily first of the te. "He is more frequently quoted n the New Testament than all the other prophets pus together. rR * * 0 nk * History of the prophets is absorbingly interesting. They make a brilliant gal- axy from the Samuel on—men like Othniel, Gideon, and Samson, prophets of thesword, and Hosea, Joel, Amos, proph- ets of the pen. * * * * * History of prophecy is equally enter- taining—the fanction and possibility of the prophetic office; how the. personality: of the prophet is conserved; he is not a speaking trumpet, but a speaking man; a seer or seeing man; nos so muoh a mechan- ical predictor of future events as a man with a vision of the bearing of current events upon the future. * * * x * The excellence of Isaiah’s style is large- ly due to his great familiarity with the Hebrew Scriptures. He shows his appre- ciation by incorporating several hymns into his writings. We have a modern analogy in the case of John Ruskin. * * * *® * By the best translation one of the favor- ite texts is lost at least in the former use of it. ‘‘Come, let us reason together’’ can no longer be used as a proof-text of the condescension of God, entering into a diecuseion as with an equal. Isis rather an ultimatum, the voice of the ‘judge to |: the accused. ‘‘Smm up the pleadings!’ ‘Let us bring our dispute to an end.” * * or Tx .% “The ox and the ass knoweth.’”’ Jere- miah’s contrast is between the sensible stork and insensible Israel. The Bibleis an invaluable ‘Nature Book.’ Its ob- servations are singularly wide, varied, ‘minute, and accurate. ¥* * * * * ‘Except the Lord bad left a remnant,” This historical fact of ‘‘the remnant’ is the hope of every age, nation, and Church.

The crack linguist of a Bavarian school ouce said to an Eng- lish girl. ‘‘Pardon, franlein, but the down-stairs of your dress is torn.”’ The speaker meant, of course, the bottom of the dress, the braid. At Wiesbaden a young Prussian officer asked the same girl polite- ly, May I steam?’ She explained: to him, his mistake. ‘‘Engines steam, bus men smoke, ’’ she said. °‘Ach, now I un- derstand, ’’ he replied ; ‘‘I have said that to so many, many Eoglish ladies and the: bhave.always langhed.’”’ ) LET US TRY and see if we can’t please you better, save you money and give you better Clothes than you have been getting elsewhere.

The great orator, having run out of orig- inal ideas, resorted to quotation. ‘You can fool some of the people all the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time,’’ he shouted. ‘‘Yes, and it's a mighty good thing for you thas the first class exists,”’ granted a knocker in the rear row. ; : Nor A SICK DAY SINCE.—*‘I was taken severely sick with Kidney trouble.
