Spiked to the ground of Jael's tent lay the
dead commander in chief of the Canaanitish
hast, General Sisera, not far {rom the river
Kishon, which was only a dry bed of pebbles
when in 1889, in Palestine, we erossed it, but
the guliles and ravines which ran into it in-
dieatod the possibility of great freshets like
the oneat the timeof the text. General Sisera

had jast been churning, and when he asked
for water she gave him buttermilk, which in
the east is considered a most refreshing
drink. Verv tired, and supposing he was
safe, he went to sleep upon the floor, but
Jael, who had resolved upon his death, took
a tent pin, lonz and round and sharp, in one
hand and a hammer in her other band, and,
putting the sharp end o he tent pin to the
forehead of Sisera, with her other hand she
lifted the hammer and brought it down on
the head of the pin with a stout stroke,
when Sisera struggled to rise, and
struck him acain, and he struggled to risa,
and the third time she struck him, and the
commander in chief of the Canaanitish host
lay dead.
Meanwhile in the distance Sisera’s mother
sits amid surroundings of wealth and pomp
and scenes palatial waiting for his return.
Every mother expo: r son to be vietori-
ous, and this mother looked the win-

at full gallop bringing her from
victorious battle. As a solitary messenger
arriving in hot haste rides up to the windows
at which the mother of Sisera sits, he cries,
‘Your armies are defeated, and your son Is
dead.” There is a scene of horror and
anguish from which weturn away.
Now you see the full meaning of my short
text, “The mother of looked out at a
window.” Well, my friends, we areall out
the battle of life is raging now, and the
most of us have a mother watching and
waiting for news of victory or defeat
If she be not sitting at the window of
earth, she is sitting at a window of
heaven, and she is going to hear all about it.
By all the rales of war Sisera ought to
have been triumphant. He had 900 iron
chariots and a host many thousands
vaster than the armies of Israel But
God was the other side, and the
angry freshets of Kishon, and the hail,
the lightning and the unmanageable
warhorses, and the ecapsized chariots
and the stellar panie in the sky discom-
fited Sisera. Josephus in his history
describes the scene in the following words
“‘When they were come to a close fight there
came down from heaven a great storm with
a vast quantity of rain and hui! and the wind
blew the rain in face of the Cangssnites
and so darkened their eyes their arrows and
slings were of no advantage to them, nor
would the coldness of the air permit the sol-
diers to make use of their swords, while this
storm did not so much incommode the lsra-
elites because it came on their backs, They
also took sach courage upon the apprehen-
sion that God was assisting them that they
fell upon the ve »f their enemies and
slew a great number of them, so that some ol
them fell by the Israelites, some fell by their
own horses which were put into disorder
and not a few were killed by their own char-
hots.

“Where's mother?’ She sometimes [feels

The trouble with Bisera’s mother was that,
tiasflald, she had the two bad qualities of be-
ing dissolute and being too fond of personal
adornment. The Bible account says: “Her
wise ladies answered her yea, She returned
answer to herself: ‘Have they not sped?
Have they not divided the prey--to every
man a damsel or two, to Bisera a prey of
divers colors, a prey of divers colors of
needlework, of divers colors of needlework
on both sides” ” Bho makes no aaxious
utterance about the wounded in bat

dying, about the dead, about the prinel-
ples involved in the battie going on, a battle
80 important that the stars and the freshets
took part, and the clash of swords was an-
swernd by the thunder of the skies. What
she thinks mo#t of Is the bright colors of the
wardrobes to be captured and the needle
work, “To Sisera a prey of divers colors, a

A Coin Recovered After Thirty Tears,
It is not often that a marked coin
once put into circulation is returned
to the person who marked it. George
Troup, Superintendent of Forest Lawn
Cemetery, before he left Bcotland, had
his name stamped upon a coin of the
issue of George IL. It was done in
fun, and at that time he never dreamed
that the coin would ever be returned
to him, The coin was put into cir.
culation, and a short time afterward
Mr. Troup came to this country.
More than thirty yoars passed by, and
he thought nothing more about the
circumstance. One day recently a
friend of his at lodge ssid to him: *“1
have a coin with your name upon it.”
“I asked him to let me soothe coin,”
said Mr. Troup, “snd when I looked
at it I found it was the identical piece
that IT had marked so long ago. I
wrote to the man who was nt
when the coin was marked in Seot-
land, and he recalled the circumstance,
the coin from my Buffalo
