D., Secretary of American Society of Religious Education. INTRODUCTION" Hereklah, ot Ivluim wo have two lessons, was suc ceeded by IMauasuoh, his son, who reigned In Jerusalem more than halt a century. Jinny Inlluenccs combined to induce this son to bo a faithful ser vant of God. Thero was tho noble ex ample of his pious father, and the splendid recoid ot at least seven other kings, whose deeds adorned the pages of Judith's history. There was the sad story of Israel's captivity, resulting from tho evil wrought by her kings, with all of which Manassch must have been familiar, added to the dreary tale of individual reigns in his own country, such us thoso of Kchoboam, who departed from God. Jtesldes, (hele were tho sacred Scriptures, the writings of the prophets and of Moses, together wlili tho voices of .Valium and Joel then living, who plended for ilghteousness. Against nil there Man assch turned his heart anil preferred to follow In the ways of those Kings of Israel who practiced the abomina tions of tin; heathen (Verso 2), the or iginal Inhabitants of the land. A re markable and unaccountable instance of depralty and folly. AVICKKDNHFS The departure of the king from tho right way was vast ly more soi Ions than tho apostasy ot nny other individual however promi nent. The king was tho gow rnment. The people were expected to do his will, and to conform to his customs. Ills very actions even lu private life were an unwritten law of all his subjects, and courtiers. In the hope of gaining favor, copied after him. Resides thU influence he had authority and might enact what men must obey under he.'iv peuaHlis flJtn. ill. 10'. The ex ercise of that authority was most grat ifying to hl'i pride. It came to pass, therefore, that Manassch, by both these methods, made Judah and Jeru salem to err (Verse 10). What he did is related In the verses lmmedlattly preceding our lesson ho built high places for heathen worship, reared al tars to Baalim, worshipped the host of Heaven, desecrated the house of the Lord by placing images there, caused his children to pass through the fire. And, withal, he turned a deaf ear when the Lord spoke to him on those mat ters (Vcive 11 ). J UDGMKN'T Manassch ascended the throne at twelve years of age. (verse 1.) It has therefore been Inferred, not without good reason that the relapse luto heathenism was not at Hist by his direction but under the Inlluenco of advisers. Under his father the idolat rous party was not subdued but kept In check, like the clergy under Kdward VI. of England, and the priests and prophets of Judah. in spite of their outward orthodoxy, were often Im moral. It would seem therefore that they urged the child-king into lib) wicked course. Hut eventually God held him peisonally accountable, nnd when the nation descended to tho lowest depths of degradation, judgment was Inflicted. Judah was again overrun by the Assyrian armies, (ver.-o It.) '.Man assch was taken tnlsxiner, bound In chains, and carried away to Hnbylon. This form of retribution was predicted tDeut xxvlii: W) in the time of Moses, it offered th- most effective method of displaying Divine displeasure. A king. set a rule as a representative ot God wlthout requiring a new declaration the pension when allowed will com mence at date of filing such declara tion. Re-Opening Rejected Claims. No claims rejected on grounds ten able under existing laws and practice will be re-opened, except upon new and material evidence going to tho causo of rejection. In all cases where evi dence is tiled for the ro-openlng of claims a brief statement of all mater ial facts will bo prepared by the ex aminer for the consideration of the chief of division, and the claimant shall bo Informed by letter of Hip action of the bureau. When a clulm has been specially ex amined and rejected, and rebutting evi dence has been Hied by the claimant, favorable action should not be taken without a cross-examination of the witnesses giving rebutting evidence. Applications for the re-openlng of Increase claims and the niing of evi dence thereunder should be limited to ninety days after the date of mailing the letter of rejection. Italic application, with evidence, in such' cases Is not made within the ninety days, as aforesaid, the rejection will be considered final. SLANG FROM THE SAILORS. Terras That Como from tho Lan guage of the Sea. I-'roni Chicago Chronicle, 111 tho vast nireunt of narrntlv which has of lato been read regarding ships and the sea, few person.-- hn slopped to think to what extent the English language has been (mulled bv t-e-.i terms.

Pea proverbs ere ul- i t in dally use. 1-Vir example, "The iil to pay. and not pitch pot." on. n. r thinks why "devil" or "pa," shout 1 bo mentioned. The saying originates In tho mystery of calking the se;,ul3 of a ship's deck. Tho omaldo eeiim, called by sailors the wuterwav scum, obtained among calkers tin- term of "the devil" throUKh the dillUulty of rnlking it; to "pay" is to i nn in t jltih along the calked s"am.

In over the people of rod, on departing Into heathen ways, might Justly be de prived of his thtoue. PENITENT!-: Tho capture ot Man nsseh was virtually tho subjugation ot Judah to Assyria. Uabylon having been previously taken, the dominions of E!iirhaddnn were extended over all of western A fin. Hut tho time for com plete absorption had not yet como lu the plans of tho Almighty. As a. prison er Manasseh reflected upon his ways and repented. Prosperity and tho flat tery of princes had proved his ruin, but aflllctlon opened his mind to wise thought!- and his heart to holler pur poses. Ho must have understood that his misfortunes were duo to his sins. Ho may have observed the condition of heathenism In all of its grosser abom inations. It Is probable that tho Spirit of Uod wrought with him to make him know the truth and choose the right. Manassch humbled himself and prayed (verse 12.) How often in the lives of men have days of trouble been sancti fied to their snlrltiial good! Removal from homo and bondage In a f-trnnge land were the means employed to bring the young king to himself and to God. (Luke xv: 11-17.) PARDON God heard the penitent, pleading king even In his prison among stranger'.', and his sins were pardoned. Hero is another excellent Illustration of tho mode of Dlvlno mercy. There was no olMclatlng priest, no imposing ceremonial, no nchocato or interces sor. A human roul in distress cast it self directly upon God. Seven hun dred ye.-us before the beginning of the Christian dispensation a great sin ner was forgiven upon tho conditions published lu the gospel (1 John I. 0). That Is not to say that means of grace and method of winning and nursing are of no value, but that all such aro merely helps. The essential and pri mary condition of salvation Is a spirit ot penitence (l'lov. .vlll. Jl). In any puce, ai any time, any soul may bo reconrllcd to God. On receiving par il'in Mnnasseh was brought home and l-e-lored to his kingdom (Verse 13). Ho had learned that Jehovah was God (Psalm lx, U',). learned It lu the school of experience, us Nebuchadnezzar did (Dan. iv. 2"), and be could now be. trusted with kingly authority. DEFENSES How Mnnas.seh was released from Hnbylon wo are not in formed. Hl. return to Jerusalem and to the throne was an acknowledgment of Judith's independence from Assy l la. and the converted king immediate ly set about strengthening the defen ses of tlie c;t. presumably to resist nny future ntt.-uk (Verse 14). lie built a will on the west side of Gihon, :i place not far distant, memorable as the scene of the anointing and proc lamation of i-'oloman as king (1 King- I. 33. That wall was continued around to the llsh gate and compassed about Ophel, thus connecting with fortifica tions established In the timo of Jo-th-im (2 Chron. xvil. ;!). The tower at that point was made very high so that the watch might command a view of the country about. In all the fenced cities "f Judah lu placed captain of war with men under them, of com-.-,.-, thai Is ganlsons. In Ibis .n-i be In tinmlcd the good example- ot Asa (2 Chron. iv. S). It is worthy of com ment that Idolatrous kings suffered the fortifications to fall to decay, por- politics the "snip of state" blunders on with Lord Tom Noddy "at tho helm;" o-ciulonally some high ofllclal Is 'thrown overboard" by his party Colloquially, we growl at an Interpret-! tor "shoving in his oar;" we speak of two scoundrels as "tarred wltli the same brush;" we adviae our fil'-nd to 'go with the current;" and we speak of him to others as all fair and '-above board." Jack Is a bit "rnkl.jh" and sometlints "hair seas ov er," If ho docs not reform ho will some day find himself "high and dry;" and "kiln up" for good.' Such terms as In "good tilm," a "snug berth." to "carry on," at "close quartets,"to "lit out," and -.-o on, are familiar to all. Here are tho derlvla tlons of three of last mentioned: "Ilakish" In the oil war days priva teers, privates and such gentry de pended upon tho speed of their vessels: thes- had their masts "rakish" or t-lanttug, sui-h a vessel was said to be "rakish," that Is a fast and doubtful custom.

REFORMS Manassch did not pause with merely protecting the citizens of Judah against foreign enemies. As it proof of his changed heart he set him self to tho reform of religion. It must have seemed very stranRo to his peo ple, and to some It was not account able (verso 17) that the king should un dertake to undo uftcr his return from Habylon tho very things which he did before his captivity. What appeared to bo inconsistency and fickleness was nevertheless tho product of a new pur poso nnd u higher mission. (Verso 13.) The Idol which ho had set up In tho house of tho Lord, the imago to the filthy Astnrte, whoso orgies shamed the better class of the heathen, was re moved; and the strange gods Haul, Ashtoroth, Molech and numerous oth erswere nil taken away and cast out ot tho city. Jerusalem was cleansed from Idolatry, at least as far as tho king's command and patronage could effect it. Thus once nioro the nation's capital was dedicated to Jehovah. It presented quite the appearance it had under all the good kings. SACRIFICED The reforms Institut ed by Manasseh were not all negative and destructive. He did not expel the forms of heathen worship and leave the people without nhy religious Institutes. Buch an attempt would have failed, be cause man must have some religion and that must bo nurtured by some public exercises. Accordingly, the king lepalred the old altar of tho Lord, prob ably the same that was bullded by King Solomon. (Verse 1C.) Thereon sacrlllces were offered, peace offerings and thank offerings, ettrharistic, indi cating that tho person was In conven ant with Jehovah. (Lev. Ill, 3.) In this public manner Manasseh an nounced to tile Dennlo of .Im-nHnlotn Hint he entered into the service of God, that henceforth his reign would bo as vice regent of God, according to the terms of tho theocratic monarchy. The eat ing of the llesh on that occasion, a par- laKing or "inc.- table or the Lord ' was a joyous feast in which tho people Joined. REFLECTIONS-Tho vilest sinner may return to God. "The heart of tho eternal is wondrouslv kind." He who punishes will forgive him who repents. If Manasseh whose sin was wi great could be restored to Divine favor let no one despair of pardon. Publish the glad tidings far and wide. "Ho! every one that tljlrstc-th come ye to the waters." (Isa. Iv. 1.) Hero is the gospel In the pro-Chrlotlan time, the same as that published today. The only differ ence ("-I that the lUStoric Christ, stand ing in the place of the promised Christ, is a clearer object of faith. (John III: Pi.) Hut pardon docs not destroy all the consequences of sin. The years of Man-a.-veh's idolatry left their Imperss upon the nation, which ho could not by any subsequent righteousness eitace. Through all the after time two intlu ences went forward with ever widening end deepening force, both proceeding from King that of his early sin. that or his later reform. It is a proud day when a man turns about and resolves to live for God; and yet the ghostn of his old life pursue him ever, disturb ing him and Injurln-r his work. (Gal. vi: y.) set longer than a very prudent man would do; rccknessness. "Close quar ters" were strong- wooden barriers stretched across the deck and used for retreat and shelter when tho ship was board 'd. The old slave ships were thus fitted in case ot slav.-s get ting loose. In the old naval wars the term meant two ships in action, wiith their aides touching as often was tho ease. Revised. "That wus a good old mntlo." said tho statesman who wus considering tho Philippine question: "IJe sure you're light and then go ahead." "Yen." replied tho friend; "It's a safe guldo for every occasion." "I don't agree with you there. Thero ure circumstances where it must be revised to make It fit.
