D., Secretary of American Society of Religious Education. THE BOOK. The tcssoa commlttco has abruptly turned backward about eight centuries, from the closing chuutcm ofjohn's gospel to the last chapter of one of the minor prophets. As a pre paration for this transition one needs to to recall the history of the period Into which we are Introduced and then to read the entire book ftom which tho lesson Is taken. Hosca was a citizen of the north ern kingdom, deeply distressed by the sin of his people, which ho likens to adul tery ,tho most offensive of Oriental vice. Ho was lead to this symbolism by his own experiences, whether actual or hy pothetical docs not matter. Ho repre sents himself (cluip. ); 2,) as entering Into wedlock, excepting purity ami happiness. Ills wlfo proved unfaithful. Ho boro with her, hoping for amendment. Sliu continued her evil way and fell Into grcit distress and slavery. Under tho prompt ings of pity he Btlll sought to win her buck. All this represented tho Idolatrous course of Israel, long continued, not withstanding the forbearance nnd en treaty of Jehovah. Tho chapter to bo studied Is tho conclusion of tho prophet's message. THE CALL. Verse 1 contains nn ex hortation or this man of God. It Is ad dressed to Israel, tho ten tribes who had set up a tieparate monarchy, and had added to that offense ono fur greater, that of Instituting- heathen worship a political and religious revolt. They are asked to return unto tho Lord their God Jehovah, with whom their fathers had been In covenant, who defended and be friended them. This reminder of a past allegiance was well calculated to awaken a senso of obligation, to nroiiso tho con science und secure an appropriate res ponse. Return Implied then as now two things, tho l enunciation of sins, which must necessarily be first, and the nftcr performunco of duties, a conversion, a change from false gods to the true God. In making this call to a new life tho pro phet did not hesitate to charge the peo plo with their Iniquity, and to declare that they had fallen on account of that Iniquity. Ho desired them to know that tho national reverses which had been sustained, us well as the dreary outlook, wero all due to religious declensions. (Prow xlv: 31.) THE MODE.-Muuy reforms are half hearted und partial. It Is uossslblo for nn Individual or a nation to seem to do what Is not honestly purposed. Israel might easily have changed certain forms to avert coming trouble, and afterward they might have relapsed to their nliom Innblo practices. To avoid this llosea prescribed a. mode of reform. He would have them take woids, that Is, express In prayer the desires of tlictr hearts. Prayer Is nlways a proof of religious sincerity. (Acts Ix: 11). But theio nre different kinds of prayer, and for tills occasion tho prayer of penitence and sup. plication Is prescribed (verse 2i. not un llko that by which the publican found money. (Luke xvtil: 3). Israel was di rected to confet-s Its sins, needed ns much then as under the gospel (t John I: 9,) for the Jaws of spiritual life aro nl waiti tho same. There must be nn at tempt to excuse or bellttlo the national fault. Paidon must be sought on the one basis of acknowledged wrong- doing. This petition ias to be accompanied bv an other, asking Hint the Divine favor mlglit be restored, nnd promising that thanks givings would le rerdered. "Calves of our lips" refers to tho thank-offering ac cording to Jewish law. ttm...tttMlt.tt,tt.ittlJt,tttt.1,tA:mAAAAAAAWA,.,A,ftti league at 3 p. m.; young men's meet ing at 1 n. m.; Epworth league.

Tho confessional prayer which Hosca sought to put In the mouth of returning Israel contalnod other words, designed to cover ll.o four points which lay nt the bottom of tho nation's sin, to cliango which would ho to Intro, dure a new spirit. (Verso 3.) The order Is suggestive. First, "Ashhur shall not savo us," they would no longer turn to Assyria, ns they had dono for asslstanco In war, which alliance had proved decep tive on nai.y occasions. Second, "Wo will not rldo upon horses," thev must reject a custom bonowcd from the Egyp tians, and condemned In the law of Moses. (Dent, xvil: lfi.) Third, they must agree not to confess any longer, ns they hud done, thut the Images mado by them were gods, thus renouncing Idolatry. Fourth, they must declare that "tho fatherless find mercy In Jehovah," an expression of His great mercy und cart. Or, more briefly, foreign nid Is not to bo sought, foreign customs nre not to be followed, Idols nre to be laid aside. God alone Is to be trusted because of Ills love to the unfortunate. These words breathe a lofty spirit. Added to tho lint part of the prayer, which Is ono of penl. tence, they show a new and holy pur poso of life. THE PARDON'.-IIosea next puts words Into the mouth of Jehovah, de claring what lie would say on healing this prayer from the people. And, tlrst, there Is a complete, chango hi tho Lord's feelings His anger Is turned away and Ills love has returned. (.Verse v.) It was as truo then ns now that God was a be ing of love (I John lv: S), but It was also truo that He was angry with sinners. (Psalm vll: 11.) Theso two statements are not contradictory, us some think. Infinite love Joined to lntlnlto holiness could not regard with favor thoso who transgress a holy law. And yet the an ger of God, beculise of sin, did not pre vent 111m from loving tho sinner so as to seek bis salvation, (John ill: 1G,) caus ing the love of complacency to follow the act of repentance. And, then, God's displeasure; being removed. He Immed iately begins and subsequently curries forward a remedial process, by which he heals the back-sliding. Tills llgure pre sents the consequences of sin In the peo ple under the llgure of a disease, n figure much used In Scripture, (Jcr. fill. 22.) both In the Old Testament (Isa. 1: 5) and hi tho New. iLuke lv: IS). THE IlESFLT.-Tho spiritual benellts thus promised tho favor of God and Ills renewal of tho heart would be attended by temporal or material blessings which God Himself Is made by the prophet to announce. (Verses 3 and 6.) Theso are all in highly figurative form, represent ing the nation as a vine nourishing under favorable conditions. Clod will be to it uj the dew which distils on plants over all the earth, and It should become a lily which Is known for Its beautiful white ness. Tho spreading branches, the deep set roots, tho delightful odor aro other lepresentutlnus of that prosperity which tho nation should attain. All this Is in harmony with other teachlnir of Scrip ture. David's observations and advlco weio to this point. (Psalm xxvll: :i b 25.) Jesus seemed to tench the same doc trine. (Matt, vl: 3H.1 Certain It is that thoHo natlcns In nil history that have been most loyal to God have bein inort favored bv lllni. The wealth of the world is today In the hands of Christian people.

Providence Presbyterian Church 415417 Lackawanna Ave scnts the Almighty as describing the conduct of the people as they consider the temporal blessings upon Israel. They who ure near enough to pcrcetvo nnd enjoy tho benefits, thono Inhabitants of adjacent territory who dwell under the benign Influence, will enter the laud of their own ntfeord whero they wilt llnd nuw llfo and greatly thrive. (Verso 7.) A righteous prosperous people liavo al ways attracted others from without. Moreover, that tribe which, more than nny other, had rebelled against God. Ephralm, that had been Joined to Its Idols, (Hos, lv: 17.) would bo Influenced to abandon Its evil ways, and promise n thorough reformation. God U said to put Into the very lips of Ephrnim words of rcpenlnneo nnd good purpose, (verse S) tho direct result of reflections through the changed conditions. Or, to state the rase more briefly, the influence of na tional prosperity under the Dlvhio bless, lug would bo felt upon the worst elements of Israel nnd upon peoples living near by, bringing all Into a happy slato of mind. THE PRINCIPLES.-Havlng thus slat cd the thoughts and purposes of God to ward the nation, It reoentent, tho pro phet closes his book with sonio reflec tions of his own. (Verse 9.) Who Iswlse to understand all that has been said, the chldlngs and threatenlngs concern ing sin and Idolatry? Rosea does not expect any others to feel the force of his writing. Hut ho would have all know that the ways of the Lord are right (l)cut. xxxll: 4), that Is, direct, leading Ktrnltrht in lln rtUlnrtt TMir, Almlnhtf Id governed In all Ills plans and donas by the principles of exact and Inflexible Justice, so that what lie requires of Ills people Is nlways best for them. It fol lows, therefore, ns tho prophet urg'S, that the Just shall walk In that way (Dent, v: .11), and they shall do so safely fiom choice. It will be the proof of their clmructer and Hie ground of their se curity. On the other hand, the trans gressors of the law of tho Lord, who choose not Ills will but their own (Jer. vxill: 12,) will stumble nnd fall. Thus tho writer lifts up a warning voice, last of nil, addressed to those who wander Into tho forbidden paths, pointing out their peril. THE THUTTIS.-We may gather out or this p.issago a few doctrines or truths, ns plainly taught or assumed, as In any part of tho New Testament: 1. He who sins against God Is in the way to ruin, not merely because of any punishment that will bo meted out to him, but be cause his Iniquity is destiuctlve; 2. God docs not leave sech to perish, but sends Ills servants, calling them to forsake the evil way and turn to Him; 3. Willie men are In sin God is angry with them, but when they reper t nnd seek Him, Ills an ger is turned awny nnd Ho forgives; 4. True repentance must embrace these ele ments, confession of guilt, prayer for pardon, change, of life; 5, Restoration to God's favor will secure temporal good to a nation, so that it shall flourish as a plant In a good soil under the genial rays of the sun: 6. The temporal piosperlty. attendant upon God's blessings, seen by the people, will nttruct them from abroad ami awaken their content nt home; 7. Tho wise man will understand these matters nnd net accordingly, hut those who love sin will pass on to death; S. Nevertheless, whatever bo tho attitude of men.
