ll! think of the many times mentioned in
_ when God revealed His will to
in dreams, both to Jews and gentilcs.

fl even an angel. The Lord secs all the

, It him tohurt His children (Zech. ii, 5;
x Pl. Sci, 9, 10). Note how the expenses of
journey were met beforehand by the
d of the wise men. Thus God always
> and anticipates the need of those
_ho rely upon Him (ll Chron. xvi, 9).
14. “When he arose, he took the young
child and his mother by night had depart-
.°d into Egypt; ” Since 'tho days of Coin,
the devil‘s first instrument to accomplish
murder, he has worked hard at it and of-
« ten been permitted to have his way, but
never unless tor the glory of God and the
good of His people. An instrument whom
He wishes still to use here satan cannot
lay aflnger upon. Consider Joseph and
Moses and Joash.
15. “And was there until the death of
Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was
spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
Out of Egypt have I called My son.” 0i»
serve the fulfilling of prophecy in verses
11 and 93 and chapter i, :32. "The Lord
01 hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely us]
linvethonght, Boshall it come to pass, and
it I how purposed so shall it stand" (lsu.
I‘Vy“); Every purpose of the Lord shall
be performed (Jor. ii, 20), and us He will
do nothing without revealing it to the
prophets (Amos iii, 7) we have only to
study prophecy in order to know what God
will yet do.
- 16. “Then Herod, when he saw that he
wu mocked of the Wise men, was excmxl- '
inaly wroth and sent forth and slew all
the children that were in Bethlehem, " etc.
Herod did not know Him who doeth ac
cording to His will both in heaven and on
earth, whobringcth the. counsel of the nu-
tlons to naught and maketh the devices
of_ the people of none effect (Dan. iv, :13;
PS. xxxiii, 10). These children thus sar-
rillccd to Herod's rage may be said to have
died for Jesus’ sake.
17. “Then was fulfilled that which was
spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying."
That which has been fulfilled and the
manner of fulfillment is the lay to that
which is yet unfulfilled. 5.1- (ll'll. xv. Iii.

mi, 15, and the next verse gives the your
fort of reward and restoration. The cap-
tive Jew»; returned from Babylon, the land
of the enemy. A greater return is llruwv

Herod, who would not {:le glory to (ind.
and the angel of the Loni smote him

Once during the days of, his early strug-
gles Edwin Booth was “barnstorming"
down in Virginia at a place called Lee’s
Leading; The improvised theater was a
tobacco warehouse, and it was crowded by
the planters for miles round. Booth and
his companions had arranged to take the
between the acts were busy packing up. The
play was the "Merchant of Venice,” and
they were just going on for the trial scene
when they heard the whistles, and the mom
Igor came running in to say that the steam-
er had arrived and would lope again in
half an hour. As that was the only chance
for a week of getting away, they were in a
terrible quandary.‘
“If we explain matters," said the man-
ager, “the audience will think they are be-
ing cheated, and we shall have s free fight.
The only thing is for you fellows to get up
some sort of scam] like improm u ending
of the piece and ring down the ca sin. Go
right ahead, ladies and gentlemen, and
take your cue from Ned there,"snd he hur-
ried away to get the luggage aboard.
. Ned, of course, was Booth, who resolved
to rely upon the ignorance of the Virgin-
ians of those days to pull him through.
So when old George Rugglehwbo was
playing Shylock~begnn to sharpen his
knife on his hoot, Booth walked straightup
to him and said solemnly, "You are bound
to have the flesh, are you?"
“You bet your life," said Buggies,
“Now, I’ll make you one more offer."
continued Booth. "In addition to this bag
of ducats I’ll throw in two kegs of nigger—
head terbeck, a shotgun and a couple at
the best coon dogs in the state."
“I’m blowul if I don’t do it,” responded
Shylock. much to the approbation of the
audience, who were tobacco raisers and
coon hunters to a man. "And to show
that there are no ill feelings," put in Por-
tia, “we'll wind up with a Virginia reel."
When the company got aboard the steam-
er, the captain, who had witnessed the con-
clusiou of the play, remarked:
“I'd like to see the whole of. that play
