presented the matter to God. That
was in the day of Intercession, when one
man represented many at the throne of
tho I nflnltc. The Almighty cared for His
peop le, though they scarcely know the
fact (Is. 1:3). He never calls Into a way
that brings trouble but ho offers dellver
nnce (1 Cor. x:13). In this Instanco thero
cam to Moses a promise of bread, a dally
port on to be sent directly from heaven a
mlra cie should be performed to feed the
hum xy thousands, a miracle, moreover,
unlll .o nny wrought before or since.
Tho: o was one condition presci Ibcd so
on t he seventh day, which was tho Sab

rcqt Ircment made before tho moral law

tt FORMED.-CVorscs C, 7 and 8). This
mep sage received directly from God ,v.as
dell fcred by Moses and Aaron, repre
sent ing the Judicial and priestly func
tion s, to tho people, but worded In Bome
whn t different form accompanied with rc
proc fs. It was said that In the morning
bro d would be given (Matt, villi), and
In t ie evening flesh, as furnishing a mixed
diet of animal and vegetable matter, but
wltl i one item at a meal. 2. It was said
tha' ; In tho morning the glory of the Lord
sho ild bo seen (Isa. xl:S), perhaps a
vlsl jle effulgence such ns had appeared In
the clouds which, occurlng by daylight,
woi Id attest the Divine presence. 3. It
was said that this would bo tho proof to
all ;hat God and not Moses had -onduct-
ed t

J Is said
thai . the Lord had heard the Aarmurlng.
whl ;h, although directed against Moses,
was in reality against the Almighty. Such
Inst ructions, so plainly and faithfully de
Hve red, were well suited to prepare these
Ignc irant people for what afterward oc
cur -ed and to give them a spiritual qulck
enli1 ig.
A
PPEARED.-(Verses 9 and 10). In-
stH
ictlon Is quite sufficient for all who
arc:
the
so advanced intellectually to receive
truth (John vlll:32). In the early
tin
es, when men lived on a lower plane,
apiieals were also made to the senses by
imliresslve phenomena. Moses, therefore,
directed Anron to assemble all Israel be
for the Lord. This has been supposed to
reftr to some particular place, where
rel glous rites and ceremonies were had.
As the great tabernacle had not been con
str ucted, it Is probable that a small tent
cal led the tabernacle of the congrega
tlo i (Ex. xxxlll:7), served the purpose nt
tht t time. About it the people were gath
erc d on certain occasions, and now for a
sp clal purpose. The offense committed
by their murmuring must be forgiven.
Wl tile Aainn was speaking, pursuant to
th se directions the children of Israel
loo ked toward the wilderness, the open
pla ce behind the tent of the congregation,
nn I there they saw in a cloud the glory
of the Lord, the same glory previously
ma nlfested, an unmistakable proof that
Go 1 was among them and that Moses was
to be trusted.
SIGNIFIED -(Verses 11 and 12). There

en
forced and explained all that had Eone
be
fore. This was -the emphatic sentence,
e shall know that I am the Lord your
G(iid." The flesh sent In the evening and
thfle bread sent In tho morning should sig
nify this. It should be a conclusive argu
ment, leaving no room for doubt, but es
tablishing faith that could not be shaken.
Tfils point gained would be of lncalcu-
ble value to a people so long oppressed,
ho knew little of the God of their
fathers, who In a time of distress were
ady to reject their leader, forsake -thalr
urpose to go to Canaan, and return to
fcrypt, simply for food. Nothing was
mlorc needed than a firm persuasion that
rad was with them.
FULFILLED. (Verses 13, It and 15). A
ni ition is in tho keeping of Almighty God.
M iilions of men are dependent upon His
n ord. If He fails in His promise they
n- ust died and their bodies must He upon
tl e open plain to perish. In all history
tl ero has never been a time of such ex
t omity and peril as that into which ls
n el was brought in the wilderness of sin.
B ut God will not fall. His promises aro
sv ie (II Pet. Iii:9). When the night came
tl o quails In large numbers were sent
ir to tho camp. They came from the Red
8' a which was a few miles to the 'west
(' lumb. xl:31). Tho appearance of feath
e: ed fowls In large numbeis (Psalm
1 xvlll:27). was a remarkable lnterposl
t( on, celebrated In after history In tho
tvIccs of the temple. In tho morning
d fter the dew thero lay on tho ground a
n utiitlous substance, small and round,
' hlch the people called manna, because
t icy did not know what it was, until
J (otes informed them that it was the
Piomlsed biead (John vl:31;. 'Some schol
a rs have tiled to show that the quails and
r tanna were produced by natural causes,
Vhat of It? Cannot God woik through
r ature or without It?
REFLECTION.-!. In tho dlschaige of
cluty on tho accomplishment of a mission
ne must expect privation, hardship and
ufferlng, and these must be met with
;ortltude and resignation, 2. He who en-
ounters trouble while walking in tho
ord's way must not look backward to
he good things left behind (Luke ix.62),
ISut foiward to tho better things which
i re before, 3. We must not complain
When adversity comes, but turn to God
: or support In It or deliverance from It.
ft'e may better die where God has placed
Ms (Luke xvll;33), than attempt to order
ur course contrary to his will. 4. It Is
folly to blame a leader for matters beyond
his control, for in so doing we weaken
' lis purpose and increase his burden, and
i.o make matters worso, 5. There Is a
rood and mighty God who presides over
he destinies of peoples and who will care
or them who put their trust In him. .
Frequently God sends or suffers Ills peo
ple to come Into great straits that they
nay learn to seek Him, and He after
ward blesses them abundantly even In
Fulfilment of His gracious promise.

From Dublin
to Scranton
"Unweary God met yet shall bring
To lands of brighter air
Beside the Susquehanna and along the
Delaware."
So sang Robert Lewis Stevenson,
after long wandering among the king
doms of the earth and the glory of
them, and so we echoed, lovely day In
mid June though It was when we left
Dublin for the five hours run down to
Queenstown to take the Celtic. But
after all It was the old familiar faces,
a short 3000 miles away that could wile
us from the summer beauty pf Ireland.
And as we sped along we looked out
tenderly upon the old land, smooth with
a thousand years of tillage. Green and
white Is Ireland. White fleecy clouds
float over the hedges, white with haw
thorn, and the venerable white cottages
snuggled down under their straw
thatches among the green fields.
Great companies of cows and sheep
wandered in this land of perpetual
grazing, crows, rooks, ravens, were
abroad and the whole Inky family
seemed there to harmonize with the
ruins gray of Ireland's past.
How the Inhabitants of such a land
can keep swarming to America, when
there is now room and verge enough
for them to live and thrive at home,
none knoweth. The country has had a
grevious past, but who is oppressing
Ireland now?
Not England, when the main prop
under her throne is Irish valor nnd the
certainly that Ireland will always fight
for something or other. If the Irish
Conservatives would consent to home
rule they could have It tomorrow. But
they say that element which makes a
Tammany 'with us, Is too hopelessly In
the majority to make good govern
ment. They point to the ring rule In
Dublin as an illustration. There if you
own a house which you can rent for
$1,000, you are compelled to hand over
more than one half this sum for local
taxes! But there should be home rule
In Ireland, and there will be when the
men of real might unite and come to
the front as they are trying to do In
the States, as America Is culled over
hete. It will come.
An American marvels at tho relaxing
grasp of monarchy In these lands. The
coming and going of the great, excite
but a languid interest, they are looked
upon very much as we regard the do
ings of our "smart sot," over here.
Leaders and men of brains arise among
them now and then, but the main facts
published regarding the lives and labors
of tho nobility nnd gentry seem to be
the daily chronicle of their movements
from one scene of entertainment to
another, To the toller, life for them
seems one long holiday und he not In
it save to pay tribute.
If our president goes a fishing und
stays more than week the country be
gins to enquire the reason why the
working head of u working nation Is
thus relaxing, When Prince Henry ap
pealed off tho IrlBh coast with u grand
fleet of German wnrshlps, they luy for
days down at Kingstown harbor within
half an hour of Dublin, nnrl the number
of people who did not go down to look
nt them would have surprised an Amer
ican. The only visible thing of his
presence uinnng us was tho prepara
tion by his German subjects In Dublin
of a choice Illuminated address of wel
come, but ho was too busy playing polo
In "Phaynix park" to come to receive
It personally, and delegated one of h)3
officers. To him they declined to give
It and it hangs In Dublin today a mem
orial of an uct of impolicy not usual to
princes,
But good-bye for this time little green
picture island, for here far out In the
cove of Cork Is the Celtic walling for
us with Impatient waves slapping her
sides. Quickly we leave the tug and
clamber up her steep side and ore
away, The voyage begins and goes nn
bravely, Wo hope there are but few so
aggrieved with care and sorrow that
they could not feel that "life Is still a

DOMESTIC SCIENCE.
"Simply because sho needs so many
trills, many a wife loses no end of
good times by being left behind when
her husband starts on his camping
trip," said a camping enthusiast late
ly, "My wlfo Is as fond of camp life
as I am, and we havo spent many
summers among tho lakes and streams
of Northern Maine. For people who
must havo luxuries twelves months In
tho year, a first-class hotel Is the
placo but If the odor of forests Is the
sweetest perfume, the rippling of the
wntern the dearest music, and beauti
ful landscapes moro entrancing than
tho choicest art a sojourn in tho
woods will bo a long remomborod de
light, For such, a meal from a good
clean ploco of birch bark, or a tin
plato, n cup of camp coffee hot from
tho flro or a cup of clear water from
tho running Btream will havo a flavor
far surpassing the richest feast served
on rarest silver nnd china. To which,
amen and amen I i
Camping may bo mado luxurious or
simple, arduous or as caro free, ex
pensive or economical, stationary or
nomadic, Just as one chooses,
Tho Ideal outing trip for the woman
with her family is ono where the work
Is minimized nnd yet every ono Is
comfortable. When tho children are
perfectly safe, yet frco to dig and
raco nnd tumble and wade and build
bonfires and "holler" and go about
with as few clothes as possible, and
get aB dirty as they please, "turned
out to pasture," as it were.'
When the dally menu needs no rack
ing of brains to ensure variety and
tempt tho Jaded appetite where the
fresh air, early hours and exercise
bring hunger which Is its own sauce,
and turn oven the prosalo slice of ba
con, tho pan of beans, the crusty loaf
Into what our German friends call
"Genuss - mlttel," "pleasure - giving
things." What Joy to dispense entire
ly with sweeping and dusting, lamp
filling and silver polishing, window
washing nnd ironing, cleaning and
fancy cooking.
Plain cooking thero needs be, dish
washing, bed making and possibly an
occasional bit of crude laundry work.
Only theso and nothing more.
Then the joy of long hours lying in
tho hammock or on tho beach, on the
camp cot or a quilt spread on tho
grass, sine of no more critical for
mal callers than tho birds, squirrels or
Miss Molly Cottontail.
They aro not at all critical, though
your sleeves bo rolled up, your collar
turned In and your dress skirt up to
your boottops. They believe In c9m
fort and freedom. So do you.
In arranging for a camping trip, try
to bo as unhampered by your clothes
us possible.
Men seem always to know just what
to wear, but women, ns a rule, havo
not learned tho art. For a month's
outing ono can get along with two
changes ot underwear, gauze If In a
warm, equable climate, but heavier
weight flannels If In the east, or when
thero is apt to be rain; one flannelette
nightgown, a heavy shawl or golf
capo, two short skirts, with brlll
lantlne bloomors of tho same color, a
stout jacket, outing flannel and cot
ton shirt waists.whlch will wash easily
and not need Ironing; strong boots, not
too heavy, but with a thick sole for
tramping; a pair of bed slippers, three
pairs of hose, a broad-brimmed soft
hat, like a sombrero, and a Scotch cap
that will not catch on overhanging
boughs, and a pair of stout gloves.
If you are going to do the cooking, a
couple of big gingham aprons will do
much toward keeping you clean. Limit
your toilet articles strictly to necessi
ties and keep them together in a
denim bag to hang by your bed. Be
suio and lay In hair and safety pins
galore, scissors, needles and thread
to repair damages, and a few standard
household remedies to use in case of
an emergency.
If there are children, boys or girls
overalls! Remember, too. a few books
of short stories that can be read aloud.
As to utensils and provisions, sim
plify everything as much as possible.
White enamel ware Is recommended
for the table, as neat, light to carry
and not breakable. A plate, cup and
saucer, with knife, fork and teaspoon
for each individual; a platter for meat
or fish; a covered dish for butter, an
other for vegetables, with bowl for
sugar, two or three large spoons for
serving, an extra long handled one
for cooking; salt and pepper shakers
will be sufficient for rough camping.
Add, if you please, a stock of thin
wooden plates, sold by all grocers, to
lessen dlshwushlng and answer for
bread and fruit plates. Each person
should be supplied with a good, big
bladed Jackknlfe. For cooking, one
needs a Btrong coffee-pot, two
long handled frying pans, a sma.ll

Waves would have to be tremendous

she rocks you gently through the pure

well flitted to cope with the wants and

we had the coronation.
At high noon assembled on the for
ward deck we faced the captain on hla
bridge who gave the program through
the megaphone. We sang "God Save
the King," we cheered him, cheered the
queen, the British flag floating nloft
and then most heartily Amelca, We
set off rockets In the blue air, and a
tucket on a clear day Is the most fairy
comet-HUo white, thing you can im
agine. It was an impressive thought that
ships an all the seas of the world were
going through the same ceremony that
day.
But, ulusl Within an hour we spoke
a ship but two days out from Boston
and read from her flags; "King 111. No
coronation." The pity of It! We should
have mourned more, but for ono sight
offered us on this English Bhlp, full

nation. After the Impressive exercises
the grimy stokers, pallid and tattered,
were summoned up, halt parboiled,
from their work to a pit just below us
and set to scuffling and groveling for
coppers thrown down by the passen
gers. It was their toll that made this
holiday sailing possible for us on the
breezy decks above, and they, too, were
brothers. That the prosperous crowd

their abasement shows how far we are

grlddto, a small covered Iron pot
for baking beans, an agate sauce
pan, a good sized tin dlshpan, a couple
of paper palls or water buckets, two
or three sharp knives, a long handled
fork, a dipper and a pancake turner.
Other articles, such as a lemon
squeezer, a camp boiler, various bowls
and basins, add to the comfort, but
can be dispensed with. There must
also be several cakes of soap for dish
washing, dish towels, that will wash
easily, matches, and colored napkins.
Tho table depends upon environment.
A boulder, one of the cots, or the
ground will do though if tho men can
fashion with axo and nails out of vir
gin forest It will add much to the
comfort of the party. A square ot
white enameled cloth will answer for
a tablecloth. In selecting the site for
l camp the first consideration must bo
nearness of wood and water. If
one has to "pack" those necessi
ties any distance pleasure becomes
pain and tho holiday Is spoiled for
the luckless hewer of wood and draw
er of water.
The camp flro Is the first thing at
tended to.
If you drive to your camp, as Is the
custom In California and Arizona, you
can carry along a regular sheet iron
camp stove with four or six covers
and a good baking oven. You may,
with regular western Ingenuity, turn a
five-gallon kerosene can Into the
nicest kind of a little stove by cut
ins' out tho top for a door, turning tho
can on one side and making a circu
lar opening for the kettle or frying
pan, and putting a silt In the end op
posite tho door for a draft. When
wood is plentiful It Is qulto as easy to
make a camp fire with the ma
terials at hand. Arrange two
large green logs side by side but
slightly further apart at one end than
the other. Put a rock across the
smaller opening for a damper to in
crease or retard combustion, as de
sired; then ariange your cooking uten
sils along the opening according to
size. By, Inverting ono pan upon an
other an oven may be devised, though
in the west every old camper carries
his "Dutch oven" along with him.
In rocky localities Are may be built
in making a perfect table for keeping
dishes nnd food warm. Tho camp fire
should be built at least an hour before
meal time in order to have a good
bed of coals.
The supply of food materials to be
laid In must depend upon the size of
the party, the facilities for carrying
supplies and the prospect of ekelng
them out by game, fish, berries or a
descent upon some convenient ranch
house or country store.
The usual necessities In camping are
salt, pepper, sugar, flour in sack, oat
meal, cornmeal, rice and lard, crack
ers, beans, tea, cocoa, condensed milk,
evaporated cream, butter, pickles,
dried fruit, potatoes, molasses, pork
and always, always, always, an abund
ance of bacon (preferably the boneless)
and coffee..
You moy add to these items as many
luxuries as your taste demands and
your baggago has room for. Lemons
will keep In a cool, dry place for two
or three weeks and add much to the
taste of soup and fish. Fruit syrups,
combined with good, cold spring wa
ter, make pleasant and healthful
drinks. A few cans of extract of
beef, some packages of the Klondyke
soups, which come In squares and are
put ui in packages like yeast cakes,
a few bakings of molasses and sugar
cookies put up in waterproof bags, an
assortment of canned vegetables and
tinned meats and fish will also prove
acceptable on days when fish decline

But the Celtic Is bearing us steadily
away from that land. On the last morn
ing of the voyage, sunrise brings a feel
ing of exhilarating lightness no pen can
describe. We sail through the lower
bay, then the upper, the glorious shores
lined with freedom's homes, built with
no dull old world uniformity, but with
every man's villa set at the angle that
pleuscth h'm best. We feel like shout
ing with delight, till we nre towed Into
our dock and received by the customs
officers as culprits and probable smug
glers. Some of us go away depleted of
our cash, while others with the same
articles In full view pass duty free,
Bungle nnd blunder rule through the
dreary two hours before' we are re
leased. The search at. the customs will
be no real search till women are em
ployed In It. Not a man of them knows
what Is really In a trunk.
But at last we are off on the stretch
through the lovely Water Gap region,
and betimes are dumped at the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western Benin
ton station, to await a local train to the
country home, Alas! to come home and
say It, Nowhere In a pluce of Its size
have we found a waiting place so
dreary, so devoid of all proper com
fort. We used to go Into Hanley's neat
dining room and linger, but now noth
ing Is left even of that but a counter
and tall stools.
But all passeB the worriment, and we
roll out again Into the greenness, No
where In the world Is purer sweetness

to bite and squirrels keep In hiding,
or when you get Into camp after dark,
tired and hungry, and want something
quick. Stilt other concessions to tha
refinements or civilized tables may ha
found In an occasional finish to a meal
of aa'lttto crystallzed fruit, soma Chin
ese ginger or a bit ot Brio or Roque
fort cheese, which may bo taken along
In glftBs pr tin packages.
And now some 'oft-repeated recipes
for camp cookery, and first, of course,
camp coffee (cold water process).
Allow a tablespoonful of ground cof
fee for each one In tho camp and "one
for the pot." Put In a cheese cloth
bag with a draw string to tie about
the mouth, lay In the pot and pour In
cold water. Cover closely, stopping up
tho spout with a twUt of paper. As
soon ns It bolts, It Is ready to serve.
If you prefer to use boiling water,
scald vyour coffee pot, put In tho coffee,
add u; cupful of cold water, let it come
to a. boll, then pour on as many cups
of hot water ns there are campers.
Push back where it will keep hot but
not boll for ten minutes. Just before
serving turn In u, half cup of cold wa
ter and let It stand a moment or two
to settle.
CAMP BISCUIT.
Ono pint of flour, two teaspoontuls
baking powder, half a teaspoonful of
of Bait, and one teaspoonful shorten
ing. Mix to a soft dough with one
cupful milk or cold water, and if you
havo no oven, pour a little bacon
grease In the bottom of your Dutch
oven, or hot covered baking pan,
turn the dough and bake.
A DUTCH OVEN,
It may be said for tho benefit of those
who are not acquainted with its pos
sibilities, is a round vast lion sort of
pot with a heavy concave top. Prop
erly treated, it bakes biscuits lighter
than any stove oven, and as for beans,
well nsk any old miner, cowboy or
forty-miner If you want to hear a pe
oratlon on its possibilities. An adept
in Its use makes a good bed of coals
right In the ground, covers his oven,
let It get good and hot, an5 tests it by
pouring In u little cold water. It It
sizzles that Id all right. Then the
bacon fat Is poured into grease it, and
the batter follows. The oven is then
set low in the coals und more coals
shoveled over it to cover the top.
MACARONI, ITALIAN STYLE,
makes an appetizing and "filling"
camp dish.
Break In small pieces and cook in
boiling salted 'water until soft, which
will be in about twenty minutes.
Drain (saving the water to help In a
soup for the next day) and rinse tho
macaroni in cold water. Arrange in
a pot with alternate layers of mac
aroni sprinkled wth bacon grease,
stewed tomatoes and finely cut cheese
and bake. Rice is excellent cooked
the Bame way with cheese and tomat
oes. JOHNNY CAKE,
with an accompaniment of bacon and
eggs or broiled fish and coffee, is al
ways In order.
A good rule calls for one cupful yel
low cornmeal, one cupful wheat flour,
two teaspoonfuls baking powder, two
teaspoonfuls sugar and a saltspoon of
salt. Mix thoroughly and add water
to make a thin batter. Then stir In
lightly one egg, unbeaten, and a tea
spoonful of drippings. BaAe In a
rather thin cake, not more than one
inch thick when done.
As for mush, one may take any kind
they prefer, but the old-fainltuicd
cornmeal is most satisfactory In the
long run; for, like the nursery rhyme,
"What we do not eat at night
We eat next morning filed."
In frying It, cut In rather thlcU
slices, roll lightly In flour and brown
on both sides in hot bacon fat.
