Jones, in a recent ar ticle tu The Congregationalist. tried to forecast the probable attitude of King Edward A'lt to religion in England and particularly toward the Free churches. He predicts that In the Established Church tho king's Influence will be used to allay and moderate strife. Directly and ofllclally his majesty Is precluded by- his position an bound by law to the Established Church, and cannot recog nize Free Churchmen nt all; but If past actions bo any guarantee of future con duct, "ho will use his great Influence wherever he can do so to secure honor able recognition of tho claims and ser vices of the Free Churches. He appre ciates the part Free Churchmen play In the nation's lifc and as king of tho whole people he Insiststhat due respect and honor should be paid to them." He compelled recognition of them nt the jubilee services of ISA", when it had been withhold, and saw that they were given suitable represen tation at his coronation. Ml Souls' Universalist Church.

SUNDAY-SCHOOL LESSON FOR OCT. 5 JOSHUA ENCOURAGED. Josh., 1:1-11. Secretary of Amoilchn Society of i llglous Education. Ro- 1H SfCCESSOR.-The death ot MAMR In tho laud ot Mouh made Joshua tho lender of Israel, tie had been pre pared for the place by a series of events extending through many years, I'robably he received a military education In Egypt lor soon after the exodus ho led tho forces to victory In the struggle with Am.'ilek. (Exodus, scvll, 13.) Afterward he was the close companion or minister of Moses In tho wonderful deeds nt Sinai. (Exodus, xxlv, 10.) Ho was ono of tho twelve spies selected (Numbers, silt, 8) to explore the land of Canaan, uniting with Caleb In bringing a good report, for which he was rewarded (Numbers, xlv, 30), and by which he obtained Information that helped him In subsequent cam paigns. Somo time ttcforc tho death of Moses he was formally set apart In the eyes of the people as successor to tho great law-giver I Numbers, xxvll, 1S-L'3 and. declared In be full ot the spirit of God, (Deuteronomy, xxxlv, 9.) THE COMMAND.-(Vcrf.CH 1 and -J.) -But, though well qualified and fully au thorized, Joshua was not permitted to act except by divine direction. It was not his part to plan and execute, but to listen and obey. TJir Almighty was king of Israel, and Ills will only, when pro claimed, was the solo rule of conduct. How long the people remained In camp on tho east of .Ionian cannot bo known they would never have departed had not God so ordered. One d.iy the command to advance enme to Josbua. whether by audible word or by Inward Impression, matters not. The order was very sim ple and Imperative. It alluded to the death of Moses only as It Imposed leader ship upon the successor. "Go thou and all this people" was the utterance that allowed no delay or debates. Then was presented the objective point, "unto the land which I do give them," Hint land ot promise conveyed by warranty deed to Abraham (Genesis, xv, IS) four centuries before, hut reserved until (he iniquity of the Amorltes should have exhausted divine patience. (Genesis, xv, 10.) THE POSSI0SSION.-(Verses :t mid 4.) The marching orders delivered to Joshua were accompanied by specific directions concerning the land to be entered, Its boundaries were plainly announced, cov ering the region which God bad set opart ns the home ot Israel. A surveyor could run the line in our day from the wilder ness, the place of encampment, eastward to the river Euphrates, live hundred Eng lish miles; thence up that stream and then westward Io the Mediterranean, so as to Include the land of the Ifittltes; thence south along the coast to an in definite distance on the way to Egypt and to the place of beginning. It differed but slightly from the descilptlou to Moses. (Kxodus. xxlil. III.) This nu.gnllicent do main was ample for the achievements of a people who were called of God to a high and lioly mission. There was. how ever, one condition in the gift so much only v should bo owned ns the nennle should possess. Wherever foot should tread title would be acquired (Deuteron omy, xl, 21), an Incentive to heroic en dea vor. THE PROMISE.-tVorse ,-,.1-A deed In escrow Is valued according to tho terms of Its delivery, so It moght have been thought that God had made conditions that Israel could hardly meet. To cross a river. Invade n populated land, sub due lis fortified towns (Deuteronomy, Ix, 1), establish government and maintain a permanent residence was Indeed a great undertaking from which many would turn In despair. To attempt this with men who had descended from Egyptian bondmen, wanderers for forty years In the wilderness, would seem to some fool hardy. Rut over against tho difficulties the Almighty set his promises. "I will ho with thee," ho said to Joshua, "as I was with Mores." (Kxodus, ill, 12.) The de liverances wrought by the mighty hand or God wore matters of history, to be mentioned as guarantees of future favors. Even In that day divine presence was a pledge of security nnd success. (Phil,, )v, 13.) Joshua was assured of victory over every foe. (Deuteronomy, vll, 21.) THE MISSION. (Verse fi.) It Is alwnvs well for n man to know what he Is to do tho precise nature and extent of bis work. Then with singleness of purposo he can summon Ids poweis for more vig orous nffoit, (Acts. Ix,, (!.) And when God gives Information on this point the man has added ground for steadfastness. In this Instance Joshua was not left in doubt concerning his mission. Appointed to lead tho people over .Ionian Into Oi lman, nnd nflerwanl to wage successful warfare against the inhabitants, nnd so tnklng possession of tho country, he was also to be permitted Io arrange the pre liminaries of the settlement. He would not be called away from his high olllco until he hud effected a division and awarded permanent quarters to tho sov eral tribes. This would be the ilnal act of his life Ills career would begin with tho crossing and end with the settle-meiit-a dellnlt". dllllcult but Important lask was thus committed to him. TIIH FlDllUVY.-f Verses 7 to !.)-Iu the execution of such n trust a high grade mini was needed. No weak and Ir losoliile soul could enter this place and hope for anything but uller deroat. It oNo fruo that the cause depends upon him who Incarnates and represents It. .losiiuo. (elected not by popular suffrage, but by divine wisdom, trained and called Into rervhc, has In his keeping the wel fare of his people and the destinies of the people unborn. Good and Irm as he was It wan deemed necessary to exhort lldel Ity. The Lord himself enjoined the m most regard to the law delivered to him by Moses (Numbers, xxvll. 23) on tho day of his cousccrallon, which was the sumo as to require obedience to Jehovah, the author of the law. Ho also lmdo him to be of good courage, to strengthen himself by the promise of the I.ord'H cniitilaut ptesence and help. If tho heart of Joshua was steadfast the people would follow and all would bo well, THK SfCCMSS.--! Verso S.)-A point of exceeding Interest Is next presented in mil- irs.-uu. uiiu informs josuun con reinlpg the secret of success In bis great nilss(on. Ho must not depend wholly upon the promised help in battle, much less upon his own strength ami eouniKo, although the latter must bo cultivated and the former would bo secured Rut with both man might fall, unless ho Is wise enough to uso his own abilities and the Lord's blessing ns h ought, wisdom Ik essential In n louder, as well as faith. How shall this bo secured'.' Tho method wus very simple, Joshua must keep be fore him constantly a copy of tho law (Deuteronomy, xvll, 18-1S0, nnd ho must medicate therein. In this way ho would familiarize himself with thoso regulations that had been made for Israel. That would Invigorate his mind and move his heart, enabling him to sec unit prompt ing him to do what wis light. (Psalm. I. 2.) Ha would thus come into harmony with God nnd bo Indeed a divine agent for tho nation's advancement, THE ORUKRS.-(Verse3 10 und 11.)- An old proverb says, "He who has A work to do should begin It early and prosecute It with vigor." Joshua acted upon thli prinelplo after hearing the Lord's lii-truotlons, Promptly he Issued general orders to his oillecrs to pass among the libst, the army, and to mnko ready to move within Hired days. Tho preparation consisted In providing suit able ration". Thcio Is no Intimation that nnythlng besldo was necessary. Presum ably us the nation had long been on n military basis under Joshua's command, lio knew tho conditions nnd felt that there was no need of special practice or outfit. The commissary department nlono rrqillrrd nltcntlon, Hut Joshua was rnreful to let the people know their des tination. He filled their hem In with high hopes by paying that they should go in to possess the land which tho Lord would glvo them, After months of waiting on the cast fthlo of Jordan, In full view ot tho promised possessions, this Intelligence must have nwakencd Intense Joy and In cited nd to the utmost netlvllj THE QUKSTIONB.-T'or the purpose ot review nnd enlargement ot thought on this passage these questions will ho help ful: 1. What moral reason Is given In Scripture for refusing to Moses, tho privl. lege of entering CunaonV 2. Why was Joshua better suited than Moses to this great tnsk? 3. What words of Joshua, showing his fitness, nro recorded? 4. IJy what methods might God command Joshua? 5. What tribes Inhabited Cnnonn nf tho time of tho coimuest under Joshua? C. Why were these people ex pelled to make room for Israel? 7. How was Canaan adapted to bo tho homo of Israel? S. Why was the condition of ownership prescribed requiring conquest and possession? !). What nations were on tho border of Canaan destined to bo neighbors of Israel In the new home? 10. Whnt grounds of encoutngement are presented In this lesson to Joshua? It. What does truth or the law of God do for a man In furnishing him for good service? 12. What nro the three most Im portant sentences ot tho lesson, around which tho whole may bo grouped? 13.
