All her | dreams had hpr father either centrif* uRally or centripetally beating through them. She refused all advances of friendship aboard ship. No one dared speak to ; her. She wanted to be alone in her sor| row. She and Michael would romp on the lower deck by favor of one of the sen men. who would keep a sharp lookout for officers. This seaman?0'Farrell by nametook quite a liking to Peg and the dog and did many little kindly, gracious | arts to minister to the comfort of both of tliem. He warned her that they would not let Michael go with her from the dock until he had first been quarantined. This hurt Peg more than anything could. She burst into tears. To have Michael taken from her would be the last misfortune. She would, indeed. be alone in that stransre country. She \v:is inconsolable. O'Farrell at last took it on himself to pet tlie dog ashore. He would wrap him up in some sailcloths, and th?n he would carry Michael outside the prates when the customs authorities had examined her few belongings. When they reached Liverpool O'Farrell was as good as his word, though i many were the anxious moments they j had as one or other of the customs nff? f Im onantniAna r?o/"?tr_ | uuitriD >wuiu r,r c iuc auopu ivuo jmvaI age O'Furrell carried so carelessly under his arm. At tlie dock a distinguished looking gentleman came on board and after : some considerable difficulty succeeded I in locating: Peer- He wns a well dressed, soft speaking, vigorous man of forty-five. He inspired Peg with an instant. dislike by hi.s somewhat authoritative and pompous manner. He introduced himself as Mr. Montgomery Hawkes, the legal adviser for the Kingsnorth estate, and at once proceeded to take charge of Peg as a matter of course. . Poor Peg felt ashamed of her poor little bag. containing just a few changes of apparel, and her little paper bundle. She was mortified when she walked down the gangway with the prosperous lookiog lawyer while extravagantly dressed people with j piles of luggage dashed here aud there j endeavoring to get it examined. But Mr. Hawkes did not appear to notice Peg's shabbiness. On the contrary, he treated her and her belongings as though she were the most fashionable of fine ladies and her wardrobe the most complete. Outside the gates she found O'Farroll waiting for her. with the precious Michael struggling to free himself from his coverings, llawkes soon had a cab alongside. He helped Peg into it; then she stretched out her arms, and O'Farrell opened the sailcloths, and out sprang Michael, dusty and dirty and blear eyed. but. oh. such a happy, fussy, affectionate, relieved little ca- j nine when he saw his beloved owner waiting for him. lie ma<le one spring at her, much to the lawyer's dignified amazement, and began to bark at her and lick her face and hands and jump on and roll over and over upon Peg iu an excess of joy at his release. Peg offered OTarrell an American dollar. She had very little left. O'Far re! I indignantly refused to take it. "Oh, but ye must, iudade ye must!"^ cried Peg in distress.

Poor Peg pleaded that O'Farrell should take it. He had been so nice to her stU the way over. Hawkes interposed skillfully, gave j O'Farrell 5 shillings, thanked him warmly for his kindness to Peg a ad her (log, returned the dollar to Peg, ^ let her say goodby to the kindly saiior, told the cabman to drive to a certain railway station, and in a few seconds they were bowling along and Peg had entered a new country and a new life. They reached the railway station, and Hawkes procured tickets, and in half an hour they were on a train bound for the north of England. r During the journey Hawkes volunteered no information. He bought her papers and magazines and offered her ^ lunch. This Peg refused. She said \ the ship had not agreed with her. She 1 did not think she would want food for i a long time to come. After awhile, tired out with the rush j and excitement of the ship's arrival, . Teg fell asleep. In a few hours they reached their , destination. Hawkes woke her and ] told her she was at her journey's end. 1 He again hailed a cab. told the driver < where to go and got in with Peg, Ml- ( chael and her luggage. In the cab he handed Peg a card and told hfir .tQ eo to the address written on it and ask-the people there to allow her to wait until be joined her. He had a business call to make in the town. He would be as short a time as possible. Khe was just to tell the people that she had been asked to call there and wait. After the cab had gone through a few streets it stopped befor-; a big c building. Hawkes got out, told the cabman where to take Peg, paid him c and, with some final advonitions to Peg, disappeared through th.j swing doors of the town hall. v The cabman took the wondering Peg f along until he drove up to a very handsome Elizabethan house. There he * stopped. Peg looked at the name on t the gateposts and then at the name on the card Mr. Hawkes had given her. They were the same. Once more she v gathered up her belongings and her v dog and passed in through the gate- a posts and wandered up the long drive on a tour of inspection. She walked through the paths ditiding rose bed* until she came to some open windows, n The main entrance hall of the house seemed to be hidden away somewhere amid the tall old trees. r Peg made straight for the open win- t dows and walked into the most won- b derful looking room she had ever seen. a Everything in it was old and massive. It bespoke centuries gone b.f in every c detail. Peg held her breath as she h looked around her. Pictures and J tapestries stared at her from the walls. Beautiful old vases were arranged in cabinets. The carpet was deep and s soft and stifled all sound. Peg almost gave an ejaculation of surprise at the swonders of the room, when she sud- a denly became conscious that she was j_1 not alone in the room, that others were 4,1 there and that they were talking. a She looked in the direction the ti sounds eaine from and saw, to her astonishment, a man with a woman in his arms. He was speaking 1:o her in A a most ardent manner. They were n partially concealed by some statuary. lj Peg concluded at once that she had ^ intruded on some marital scene at which she was not desired, so she instantly sat down with her back to v them. o She tried not to listen, but some of the words came distinctly to her. Just as she was becoming very uncomforta- Cl ble and had half made up her mind to v leave the room and find somewhere I else to wait she suddenly heard herself f.( addressed and in no uncertain tone of roice. There were Indignation, sur- " nriseand anger in Ethel's question: d< "How long have 3*011 been here?" Pep turned around and saw a strikIngly handsome, beautifully dressed young lady glaring down at her. Her 111 manner was haughty in the extreme, is Peg felt most unhappy as she looked at her and did not answer lmmedlately. tt (To be continued.) ti c< ? ?- fl Burnett's Flavorings t A. M.

Text of the Lesson, II Sam. vi, 1-19; Ps. xx;v?Memory Verses, Ps. xxiv, 7-10?Golden Text, Ps. cxxii, 1?Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. David having been established as king over all Israel began at once to think of a place for the ark of the Lord, the symbol of the presence of the Lord in the midst of His people. The last record of the ark was when ^ the Philistines returned It in a new cart with an offering; the men of Bethshemesh transgressed by looking Into it, and 30,000 perished; they were glad fo send it on to Kirjnth-jearim, where It found a resting place for many years in the house of Abinadab in the bill (I Sam. vli, 1). I think tlaat there is no mention of it during the reign of Saul. Ip our lesson chapter und in chapter vii, 2, it is mentioned sixteen times, and in the parallel record in I Chron. sill, xv and x\i it is mentioned twenty-five times. It always suggests righteousness which God requires, hut also that righteousness provided in Christ, who Is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. The blood on the mercy seat speaks of the sacrifice on Calvary, and the cherubim beaten out of the same piece of gold as the mercy seat tell of the oneness of Christ with His redeemed. The Lord of hosts dwelling between the cherubim (verse 2; I Chron. xiii, 0; I Sam. Iv, 4; Ps. lxxx, 1) tells of the mercy of God in Christ and of His provision for communion with us (Ex. xxv. 21. 22), for it is our privilege to say "Truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ" (I John i. 3). Although David's desire to provide a place for the ark in Jerusalem was commendable. he was certainly out of fellowship with God in the way he took to accomplish it and in his adopting the method of the Philistines, when lie really knew better, as we shall see. David's folly in the matter of a new "HI* ?n hoop tho nplf lnatoqrl nf thf? . shoulders of the priests (chapter vii, 3; ^ I Chron. xili. 7: xv. 2, 12-13) brought iibout the death of Uzzab, terror in the heart of David and the ark resting for three months in the house of Obed?dom. When the Lord Instructs us as to how He desires His work to be done there Is nothing for us to do but obey ind avoid all methods but His own. One of the most grievous things in jo called church work of our day is the worldly methods which seem to have been adopted on all sides instead of . prayer and fasting and looking to the Lord alone to carry on His work in His way by His Holy Spirit. As truly is the Lord gave Moses that plan of the tabernacle and David the plan of the temple (Ex. xxv, 9, 40; I Chron. cxvlli, 12, 19). leaving no room for suggestions or improvements or modiflca- , I :ions of any kind from them, so has He I is plainly told us His plan for subdu- I ng this world to Himself and making 9 * ^TTolloth Hfl'ht'- I I u 11C? ca 1 111 VT UCl ciu uiiuuviu *. >0ub _ jousness. We are not permitted to be I onformed to this present evil world I in any way, nor are we to think of I unking this world, which lieth in the' 1 wicked one. a righteous world, for 4t fl ;annot be done while the devil is Its 9 ;od. ruling as he does in politics and I n commerce and In social life and also I n much that is called religions. [See ny tract entitled "The Secret of Mis- I jionury Interest." L. & K., box 216. fl 3arrlsburg. Pa.] fl When the ark finally reached Its fl )lace In the tent that David had pitch- fl *i for it there was great rejoicing be- fl 'ore the Lord, and David blessed the fl leople in the name of the Lord of /B losts (verses 12-19). There is always jlessing associated with obedience to <^fl :he Lord. Chapter vii is one of the B nost Important records in the whole fl itorv of David, for it tells of God's un- B ondltional covenant with David con- H eniing the everlasting kingdom yet to H )e set up on the earth, with Israel as H ts center and an Immortal man upon HI ho thronp of David at Jerusalem (viii, 12-24). That David knew that the iromised son was not Solomon, but the JH Messiah, is plainly stated in Acts 11. B| 10, and Messiah risen from the dead. in immortal man, for no mortal man ould reign forever. The same person s spoken of In the same way In Isa. x. 6. 7, and also by Gabriel to Mary n Luke 1. 32. 33, and the kingdom tbfts oretold will surely and literally come. That the church is tbe kingdom. bat the kingdom Is here now, that It s only a so called spiritual kingdom HI md within us, la wholly without founlation In the word of God. The mucb nisunderstood saying In Luke xvli. 21. j^H vould not be so misunderstood If peo)le noticed that the words were spoken o blaspheming hypocrites. The marrinoi mnHinrr la the correct one. Da- jM )4UU* *V ? .~0 id's thought at this time was to bulJd t temple for the Lord, and even Na~ han the prophet encouraged him, but he will of the Lord was otherwise chapter vll, 1-11; compare I Chron. evil). The plans for the building were Hvon fn nnvid. and he was allowed to nake great preparation for It (I Cbron. :xviii, 12, 19; xxlx, 1-5). Note David's luestion when be beard of this wonlerful King and kingdom (vli, 19; I }hron. xvll, 17) and compare tbe quesIon of tbe disciples in Mark lv, 41. HH le is tbe same in all tbe Bible story. nd His name Is "Wonderful." Witffc-^^^H >ut Him we can do nothing, but If as tranches we abide in tbe Vine He will urely bear fruit tbrougb us.
