our scholars promised God and promised
themselves at the bngluning of the year
that they would give heart and llfo to

have passed away and tho promises have
not been kept. Many must s,ay, "Tho bar

INTItOUUCTlON.-Wlth the exieiillon
of tho eighth and twelfth otic on tom
poranco and the other on Christmas the
lessons of tho quarter were historical.
They fait under two heads six of them
tt eating of Joshua, and the others of tho
Judges. A complete study or even read
ing of the two booRs fiom which the les
sons were taken would show an Intimate
rolatlon, tho one nanatlvc gliding nntur
nllv into the other with but a slight
bteak. Tho gteat captain, tho successor
to Mos.es, prepared tho way for u pure
theoeiaoy, which after his docoase was
but imperfectly realized, chiefly because
the peoplo wcie not fitted for It, Their
contact with the native? of the land tend
ed to diminish their loyally to Jehovah,
while their ttibal system affoided only a
weak bond of union.
t FIRST LHSSON.-Oct. 5, "Joshua Kn-
couiaged," Joshua, i, 1-11. God spoke, di
icctly to Joshua as He had done with his
illustrious predecessor. Tho scope of tho
divine address briefly outlined the duty
and polity of tlio new leader, and mav
bo named In a few points: 1, The call to
cross the Jot dan and enter Canaan. 2.
Tho now bestowal of the country with
prescribed boundtuios, as it was given
centuries before to Abraham. 3. The con
dition of ownership conquest and posses
sion, 4. Tho promise of vlctoiy over the
Inhabitants of the land because of the dl
vlno presence, the one sure support. 5.
Tho chat s;o to be strong and courageous.
C. The ditcctlon to meditate in the law.
SKCOND LKSSON.-Ocl. .'. "Closing
the Jot dun," Josbtia, lit, fl-lv. 7. Tito
pioinpt response of Joshtu to the Loid's
Instinct-Ion levealed his charaotct a? wor
thy of the trust committed to him, de
sciiblng the mode of tho crossing, and
appointing twelve men, one out of each
ttlbe, to mako a memorial of the event.
Tho complete fulfillment of his word
showed that ho had indeed heard the
ice of God. The aik, borne by piiests,
was eatrled to the middle of the stream,
and thorp held until Israel had passed
over. Then the twcho representatives of
the tiibes took each a stone upon his
shoulder and bore It to tho west side.
TIHRD LESSON.-Oct. 10. "The I'all of
Jeilcho," Joshua, vi. 8-20 Very soon af
ter the ctossing a remailja'blo event
showed not only the mode of conquest,
but also the picsence of God with tho,
people. Israel was led to the plain near
ono of the best fot tilled cities of the land.
a btionghold supposed to be impiegnable.
If it could be taken every heart would be
made ready lor any subsequent attempt.
But the l eduction of tho cltv was to be
accomplished In such a manner as to
convince all that it had not been dono by
the milium- power of Istaol, but by the
interposition of the Almighty. A proces
sion moved seven times, around the place
and on the seventh round a groat shoi't
was made and the walls fell down flat.
FOURTH THSSON.-Ocl. L, "Joshua
and Caleb," Joshua, Mv, 5-1 j When the
spies wcie sent out to view the land, by
the dhection of Moses, two only returned
with a good lpport. having laith in God.
While the other ten perished in the wil
derness dm lug tho wandering, these two
faithful souls wcie rewatded by balng
permitted to enter tho piomised land. The
conquest having been completed an al
lotment of tho territory to tho tribes ap
propriately followed. Caleb, one of tho
spies, of the tribe of Judah, then eighty
yeura old, came to his companion anil
asked what was piomptly given, posses
sion in the southern country.
TIFTH I,KSSON.-Xov. B ,' Cities of
Refuge," Joshua, xt, 1-9, Tho ptactlce
of personal rceuge wus common tluough-
out tho ancient world. If one man slew
another, the relativis of tho latter were
expected to put sue the mm defer and put
him to death'. This generally bi ought
speedy .mstlco to tho man-slayer and In
certain conditions of socloty woiked littlo
harm to nny one. But In the settlement
of Israel in Canaan a fifed term of gov
ernment was established and all lelations
in llfo woia regulated by statute. Of
eiibes were puulbhablo only by law, nnd
that Involved a conviction bctore a com
petent tribunal. In electing this change
ceitain cities were appointed to which one
might flee and await a tiial.
SIXTH LESSON. No. !, "Jo.shua's
Palling Advice," Joshua, xlv, 11-23.
Tho death of a great man Is a serious
los.-t, often a calamitv. to a neonle.
Joshua had so faithfully dlselmtged the
duties of his high oflice, as captain and
judge, as to merit and receive tho affec
tion of all. With fatherly tenderness
when ho was about to depot t ho called a
public Bbhombly at Sherhem. and thoio
sought to Impiess upon the otllcers of tlio
government tho solemn obligations that
rested upon them. Ills address called all
to four nnd sorvo the Lord, us tho tuuda
m.'ntul condition of national piosporlty.
Ho loqulied thntii then and there to avow
or imiouncc their loyalty to Jehovah,
to bo steadiest. Having ho nmrmod this
a covenant was inudo.
by tho fllldlanltes, a peoplo living In the
southeast of Canaan. They were de
scended from Abraham by Keturah. It
was among them that Moses found an
asylum when ho lied from Egypt. (8
odus, 'II, 15.) Later thoy became trouble
somo nnd Moses wait commanded, to
Btnlto them. (Numbets, :xv, IT,) A war
like and wealthy peoplo they became
strong: and coveted tho land like grass
hoppers, Their exactions of grain and
cuttlo Impoverished Israel, and God heard
the cry of Ills people and raised tip a de
liverer. Yet imposed conditions that
clearly moved to alt that the Almighty
had wrought against the national, enemy
and brought to them security.
TENTH LESSON.-Dec. T, "Ruth and
Nuoml," ntttli, 1, ltl-2:. A mother-in-law
nnd a daughter-in-law, two widows, a
Jewess nnd a Aloabltcss, passing through
sons boreavoment cling togother nnd make
their journey to the old home of the form
M Tho other woman out of nffocllon for
tho younger, seeks to persuado her to re
turn to the land of her fathers, featlne
that In Israel who will find littlo comfort.
But tho latter could not be persuaded.
With remarkable steadfastness she fol
lows on, professing personal altncltmclt
and confessing the new faith. Tho ar
rival at the destination is described In
pathetlo terms. Naomi coutiasts hot'
ptesonf with her past.
ELEVENTH LESSON. Dec. H "The
Boy Samuel," T Samuel, ill, t-ll. In tho
car 1105 B. C. Eli, a. descendant of Aaron,
filled the two oIUccs of high priest and
judge In Jiup1. Becauso of tho wicked
ness of h(s sons, and his neglect of pa
rental discipline, God determined to
transfer these governmental functions to
another of entirely dlfteront lino. When
n mere child, Samuel was brought up by
his mother to minister before Eli. Our
lesson doscilbcB th manner of his selec
tion as successor. It was In the night
when a volto called him which he did not
at first understand. At the thltd call th
boy answered and God delivered the om
mlsslon. AVo havs here one mode bv
which under the old dispensation selec
tion was made of persons for holy ser
vice, a mode adopted to secure greater
faithfulness in office.
'TWELFTH LESSON. Deo. 21. "Christ
mas," Luke, II, S-20. This Is the stoty ot
the shepherds doing homage to the tufunt
Jesus in Bethlehem. The following points
will enable one to recall the entire nar
rative: I. The night scene, tlio shepherds
with their flocks on the plain. 2. The
sudden appearance of the angol of the
Loid and the supernatural phenomenon
of effulgence. S. Tho speech of tho angel,
seeking to allay their fears, and announc
ing tlio event of good tidings to bo re
ceived witli great joy. 4. Tho declaration
of tho birth of tho Saviour, tho Christ,
tho Son of David. 15. The announcement
of tho manger cradle. 0. The appearance
of the heavenly host praising God. 7. The
visit of tho shepherds to Bethlehem.- S.
The leport given by them to othors. fl.
The astonishment fell by all. 10. The si
lence of 5Imy.
REFLECTIONS. Summni y statements
for the several lessons, valuable to ouv
time, may bo given ns follows: 1. A good
man appointed leader In a great caute
will find strength in the word of God. 2.
Entrance into new possessions leads often
tluough difficulties and God prcpaies the
way. 3. The obstacles to success, like the
walls of a city, may bo thrown down by
tho power that guides a good man. 4.
The man of faith may ncd to wait manv
years, but ho shall not lose his reward.
B. There is a place of tcftiie for even'
sinner. 6. The good man's last words nte
full of wisdom. 7. The people who forgot
God fall into groat tiouble. S. Strong
dilnk destroys. 9. God can conquer a
mighty host with a few who trust ITIni.
10. One may well surrender a heathen
homo for ono with God's people. I J A
child may enter God's sot "Ice. 12. Wise
