DIVIDING THE LAND AMONG THE TRIBES.—Josh. 13:6, 7.

And up all the hills they planted vines, where fine large grapes grew;
and in the valleys were plenty of corn-fields. All over the country,
people had each man his own house, with his vine and his fig-tree to
shelter it, and olive-trees in his garden, and a field to grow corn in,
and hill-sides near, where he might keep his cows, goats, and sheep.
The rocks and the hollow trees were full of wild bees' nests; so that
indeed they found it, as Moses had told them, a land of corn and
wine—a land that flowed with milk and honey; and they were very
glad to be there, and to rest after their long wandering in the
wilderness.
After they had had a quiet rest, their first sorrow came. It was that
their brave leader Joshua had grown old, and felt himself near his
death. So he called all the chief men together, and told them over
again how much God had done for them; and that if they would
serve Him and keep His Commandments, all would go well with
them. "As for me and my house," he said, "we will serve the Lord."
And all the people promised too. They said they would serve the
Lord, and would not go after other gods, but would keep His
Commandments.

them? 3. Who was leading them? 4. Whom did they drive out? 5. Who had

Eighteenth Sunday.

THE JUDGES OF ISRAEL.


FIRST READING.

"The journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honor."—Judges 4:9.

HEN the Israelites had come to live in the beautiful


land that God had promised them, they ought to
have loved and served Him, and thanked Him for all
His goodness. But no! They liked worshipping false
gods; and they made idols to pray to, cut out of
wood and stone; and they learnt wicked ways.
Then God was angry with them; and He punished them by sending
cruel nations to conquer them, to burn their houses, to steal their
children, and drive away their cattle. Then they would be sorry, and
pray to God again; and He had pity, and sent some brave man to
defend them.
To-day we hear how sadly they were used by a fierce man named
Sisera, who had nine hundred war chariots of iron to go into battle
with. His people used to shoot at the Israelites at the wells when
they came to draw water; and nobody dared to go along the high-
roads, but only through the paths, for fear of being killed.
QUESTIONS.

1. How ought the Israelites to have behaved? 2. What had God given them?
3. Whom should they have worshipped? 4. But what did they worship? 5.
How did God punish them? 6. What was the name of the cruel man who ill-
used them? 7. How many chariots had Sisera?
SECOND READING.

"The Lord shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman."—Judges 4:9.

T last God spake to a good brave woman named Deborah,


and told her to send for a man named Barak, who should
lead the Israelites to fight with Sisera. She sent for Barak,
and told him what God had said. But Barak was afraid to go
alone. He said he must have Deborah with him. He ought to
have known that, if God sent him, he was sure to be safe and to
succeed.
Deborah told him that since he wished it she would go with him, but
that the journey should not be to his honor, for the Lord would sell
Sisera into the hand of a woman. And it turned out as Deborah said.
Barak won a great battle, and drove the enemies away, so that they
did not hurt the children of Israel again for forty years. But he did
not meet with Sisera in the battle, nor get the honor of killing him.
SISERA SLAIN BY JAEL.—Judges 4:22.

Sisera fled out of the battle, and was killed after all by a woman,
whose name was Jael. Barak lost all the honor, because he would
not do just as he was told, but was afraid without Deborah, just as if
God could not help him better than Deborah could.
This morning's lesson told how Deborah and Barak conquered the
cruel Sisera. This evening's lesson is the song that Deborah made to
thank God for having given her the victory, and saved His people.
QUESTIONS.

1. Who was the holy woman that God raised up? 2. For whom did Deborah
call? 3. What was Barak to do? 4. Who did Barak say must come with him? 5.
Why was this wrong of Barak? 6. What happened in the fight? 7. Did Barak
kill Sisera? 8. Who did kill Sisera? 9. Why was not Barak allowed to kill
Sisera? 10. Whom ought he to have trusted to? 11. Who will always help us
if we are not afraid to do as we are told?
THIRD READING.

"They chose new gods; then was war in the gates."—Judges 5:8.

HE Israelites never kept long from sinning and setting up


idols; and, by-and-by, God let a set of robbers, called
Midianites, come in and burn their crops and houses, drive
away their cattle, and steal their children for slaves.
Then the Israelites were sorry, and prayed to God to save
them. And God had pity on them, and sent His angel to a man
named Gideon, to tell him that he was to fight for the Israelites.
A great many men came to Gideon; but the Israelites were to be
shown that it was as easy for God to save them with few men as
with many. So He bade Gideon send home all but three hundred
men. And Gideon believed, and sent them home, and kept only the
three hundred.
Then at night he took these men, and gave them each a trumpet,
and an earthen pitcher, with a lamp inside the pitcher, so that the
light could not be seen. He took a hundred with him, and sent the
other two hundreds another way, creeping quietly along till they
came to the place where the Midianites had set up their tents, and
were all lying asleep among the cattle they had stolen.
GIDEON'S OFFERING BURNT BY FIRE FROM THE ROCK.—Judges 6:21.

There they lay, and never heard Gideon and his men coming till they
were close to the camp, the three parties on three sides. Then, all of
a sudden, everyone of the Israelites broke his pitcher and let his
lamp shine, and blew his trumpet, and shouted, "The sword of the
Lord and of Gideon!"
The Midianites were awakened out of their sleep to see the lamps on
three sides of them in the dark, and hear the trumpets and the cries.
They were very much frightened, and quite wild with fear. They all
began to beat down one another, for they did not know friends from
enemies. A great many were killed, and the rest fled away, leaving
all that they had stolen behind them. And so God delivered the
Israelites from the Midianites by the hand of Gideon, and gave them
peace again as long as they would serve the Lord.
GIDEON'S VICTORY OVER THE MIDIANITES.—Judges 7:19-21.

QUESTIONS.

1. What made the Israelites meet with troubles? 2. Whom ought they to
have worshipped? 3. But whom did they worship? 4. What happened then?
5. Who were the next people that ill-used them? 6. What did they do when
they were punished? 7. Whom did God send to save them? 8. How many
men was Gideon to have with him? 9. What did all the men carry? 10. Where
did they go? 11. Into how many parties were they divided? 12. What did the
Midianites hear? 13. What did they see? 14. What did they begin to do? 15.
What became of those that were not killed? 16. Who had made Gideon able
to beat them with so few men?
JEPHTHAH MEETING HIS DAUGHTER.—Judges 11:35.

Nineteenth Sunday.

SAMUEL.
FIRST READING.

"Samuel ministered before the Lord, being a child."—1 Sam. 2:18.

T HERE was a very good woman


named Hannah, and she grieved
because she had no children.
Whenever she came with her
husband to God's holy place, she
used to kneel, and pray with all her
heart to God that He would let her
have a son; and she promised that if
she had one, she would lend him to
the Lord all the days of his life.
At last God granted her prayer, and
gave her a little son, and she named
him Samuel. She was very glad
YOUNG SAMUEL BROUGHT TO ELI. when he was born, and she thanked
God, and sang a hymn of praise for
her dear little child. But she had promised to lend him to the Lord all
his life; and she kept her promise.
As soon as little Samuel was old enough to be without her, she took
him to the holy place, that was instead of a church, and gave him to
wait upon the Lord. He lived with the High Priest, whose name was
Eli, and was taught by him.
Eli was a very old man, and his sons used to behave very badly; but
Samuel was always good and obedient to him, and used to wait
upon him, and help him when he served God in the holy place.
Samuel wore a little white linen dress like the priests; and when his
mother came to see him, she used to bring him a little coat. She had
five more children afterwards, three sons and two daughters.

HANNAH'S PRAYER.—1 Sam. 1:11.

If you listen in the afternoon, you will hear how God spoke to
Samuel whilst he was still a little boy; and I am sure you like to think
of the little child in his white dress, ministering before God in His
beautiful holy place. But only think. You can be like Samuel. Your
father and mother lent you to God for all your life, when they took
you to the font, and made you God's child; and though you live at
home, you go to church, and can serve God there, if you kneel and
stand and sit quietly at the proper times, mind the prayers, and
repeat the Amens, and the verses you know, in their right places.
And if you are obedient, and try to be good, God will love you as He
loved Samuel.
QUESTIONS.

1. What was the name of the woman we hear of to-day? 2. What did she
wish for? 3. What did she do to obtain her wish? 4. What did God give her?
5. What was her son's name? 6. What did she promise? 7. Where did Hannah
bring her little son? 8. Who took care of Samuel? 9. Who was Eli? 10. How
did Samuel behave? 11. What did Samuel wear? 12. What had Samuel to do?
13. When were you lent to God? 14. Whose child are you? 15. How can you
be like Samuel when you go to church? 16. How can you be like him at
home? 17. Who will bless you if you try to be good? 18. What kind of
children does God love?

SECOND READING.

"Speak, Lord; for Thy servant heareth."—1 Sam. 3:9.

ANNAH brought her little son Samuel, to be brought up in


the holy place by the High Priest Eli.
Samuel was very good and holy, and God blessed him and
loved him. One night, when everyone was gone to bed, but
the lamp in the holy place was not yet gone out, Samuel heard a
voice calling to him, "Samuel!" He sprang up at once, for he thought
that Eli had called him, and he ran to Eli and said, "Here I am, for
thou didst call me." But Eli answered, "I called not, my son; lie down
again;" and Samuel went back to his bed.
Then again came the voice calling to him, "Samuel!" and again he
thought it was Eli's call. He was not lazy, or fretful at being roused
out of his sleep, but he ran at once to Eli, and again said, "Here I
am, for thou didst call me." But Eli sent him back to his bed again;
and there again he heard the call, "Samuel!"
Patiently he once more rose and came to the old man, but this time
Eli knew that it must have been no other than God's own voice
speaking to the child. So he bade Samuel go back, and next time he
heard the voice, to say, "Speak, Lord; for Thy servant heareth."
And so Samuel did. Again his name was called,
and he made answer, "Speak; for Thy servant
heareth."
And God spoke to him in the still night, and told
him to give Eli a fresh warning of the sad things
that were coming on him and on his sons.
Samuel was forced to tell Eli all in the morning,
sad and mournful as it was. He was afraid and
grieved to have such things to say, but he told
the truth, and Eli was too good a man to be
angry with him, and only said, "It is the Lord: let
Him do what seemeth Him good."

GOD TELLS SAMUEL OF DESTRUCTION OF ELI'S HOUSE.—1 Sam. 3:11.

And, after that, God often made His will known to Samuel, and
blessed him, and all Israel knew that Samuel was God's own
prophet. Think of the great honor and blessing of having God so
often speaking to him! But we have that blessing too. God is nearer
to a little Christian child than He was to Samuel; for the Holy Spirit
speaks in a Christian child's heart, and tells him to be good and
dutiful, and to think of God, and say his prayers with all his heart.
And that is better than even being a prophet like Samuel. Only we
must take great care to attend to that voice; or it will leave off, and
then we shall get worse and worse, like those bad sons of poor old
Eli.
QUESTIONS.

1. Who was Samuel? 2. Where was he brought up? 3. What did his mother
bring him every year? 4. Who was the High Priest? 5. What did Samuel hear?
6. Who did he think was calling? 7. What did he do? 8. What did Eli say? 9.
How often did this happen? 10. Was Samuel cross at being called so often?
11. Who was honoring him? 12. What did Eli perceive at last? 13. What did
he tell Samuel to answer? 14. What did he hear again? 15. How did he
answer? 16. What did the voice tell him? 17. Whose voice speaks to us? 18.
How does the Holy Spirit speak to us? 19. What must we take care to do?

THIRD READING.

"The Ark of God is taken.—Samuel 4:17.

OD helped the Israelites again and again, but they would


not leave off their wickedness, and at last He punished
them still more. There came up a nation to make war upon
them, fiercer than any before, called the Philistines. Then
the Israelites fancied that if they took the Ark of the
Covenant out into the battle with them they would get the victory, as
they had done when Joshua conquered the land.
But God had never bidden them take the Ark. He had commanded
that it should stay in its place at Shiloh. They did not heed this, but
took it out into the camp, and all the people shouted for joy when it
was brought, with the two priests, Hophni and Phinehas, Eli's sons,
to take care of it. When the Philistines heard the shout, they said
that the gods of Israel were come, and that they must fight all the
more bravely. And they did.
God would not help His people because of their self-will, so He let
them be beaten by the Philistines, and Hophni and Phinehas were
killed, and the holy Ark of God was taken by these heathens. And
when poor old Eli, the High Priest, heard the sad news, he was so
much shocked, that he fell down backwards and broke his neck and
died.
God still shewed His power, for when the Philistines put the Ark into
the temple of one of their false gods the idol fell down and was
broken; and wherever it was taken the people fell sick, till at last
they sent it back to the Israelites: but it never came back to Shiloh.
It was hidden in a lonely house in the woods; and the Philistines
were strong and the Israelites were very weak and miserable,
because they had been so very disobedient.

THE DEATH OF ELI.—1 Sam. 4:17, 18.

QUESTIONS.
1. What people came to fight with the Israelites? 2. Why did God let any one
hurt the Israelites? 3. What did the Israelites think would help them to fight?
4. What was in the Ark of the Covenant? 5. Where was it kept? 6. Ought they
to have taken it? 7. Why not? 8. Why did they take it? 9. Did it give them the
victory? 10. Why not? 11. Who were killed? 12. Who was the father of
Hophni and Phinehas? 13. What happened to Eli when he heard the Ark was

Twentieth Sunday.

KING SAUL.
FIRST READING.

"Behold, the Lord hath set a king over you."—1 Samuel 12:13.

HERE was a young man named Saul, who was very


tall and strong. His father kept a number of asses;
for, in the land of Israel, people rode on asses
instead of horses. One day all the asses were lost,
and Saul and one of the servants went out to look
for them. They went a long, long way, and never
found the asses; and at night they came to a city,
and there they found Samuel.
Samuel was an old man now, and grey-headed; and he ruled over
Israel, and everyone honored and loved him, because he was so
good and just. Saul was very much surprised when the great and
good Samuel met him, and led him into the house, and put him in
the chief place, and gave him a choice of meat that had been set
apart for him. Saul could not think how Samuel knew anything about
him. And he was still more surprised the next morning, for then
Samuel came out of the city with him, and sent the servant on
before. Then Samuel took some oil, and poured it on Saul's head,
which was what was called anointing, and told him that God had
chosen him to be king over all the people of Israel.
Was not this wonderful news for him? And you see, God had led him
to Samuel to be made king, though he so little guessed what was
going to happen when he set out to look for the asses. And God still
makes everything happen, even the least thing; it is all for our good,
even though we do not quite see why.

SAMUEL ANOINTING SAUL.—1 Sam. 10:1.

So Saul was the first King of Israel; but he was only to be


prosperous as long as he would take care to obey God.
QUESTIONS.

1. Who was the first King of Israel? 2. Did Saul expect to be a king? 3. What
did he set out from home to do? 4. Where did he come? 5. Who was in the
city? 6. What did you hear about Samuel last Sunday? 7. What age was
Samuel now? 8. What did he give Saul? 9. What surprised Saul? 10. What did
Samuel do to him the next day? 11. What is anointing? 12. What was he to
be? 13. But what must he do if he would get on well?

SECOND READING.
"There is no restraint to the Lord to save by many or by few."—1 Sam. 14:6.

AUL was the first king of Israel. But just at first, when he
was appointed king, the people were in great distress; for
their enemies the Philistines had overrun the whole land,
and held all the strong places, and were very hard to the
Israelites. They would not even let a smith live among the
Israelites, that they might not be able to have swords or
spears made to use in fighting, and the Israelites had to go into the
Philistines' country to get their axes and ploughshares made, and to
sharpen the goads, or long sticks tipped with iron that they drove
the oxen with.
THE PEOPLE MUCH FRIGHTENED.
Nobody had a sword or spear but Saul and his good son Jonathan;
all the rest of the people had nothing better to fight with than axes
and mattocks and goads, and they were very much frightened, and
came trembling after their new king.
But Jonathan trusted in God, and he and one young man set out
creeping along a rugged steep path to see what the enemy were
about, and by-and-by they came below the high rocky hill where the
Philistines were encamped.
One of the Philistines looked out and said, "Behold, the Hebrews
come forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves;" and he
called out to Jonathan, "Come up to us, and we will show you a
thing."
Now, Jonathan knew, as he said to his friend, that the Lord can save
as easily by few men as by many, so he was not afraid; and he and
the other young man climbed up on their hands and knees till they
came out among all the Philistine soldiers. Then they began to fight
at once, and the Philistines were so surprised at these two men
beginning to fight with them, that they most likely thought all the
others were behind, and they began to run away.
The people in Saul's camp heard all the noise, and went out to look,
and saw the Philistines running away, so they went after them, and
killed many, and drove them out of the land, and got free of them
once more.
So God blessed and helped the good Jonathan, because he trusted
in Him; and Saul became a great king.
QUESTIONS.

1. Who was the first king of Israel? 2. Who made Saul king? 3. Who was
Saul's son? 4. Who were the enemies of the Israelites? 5. Why would not the

people afraid? 11. Who crept out to see the Philistines? 12. What did

happened? 15. What became of the Philistines? 16. Who became king?

"Intreat me not to leave thee."—Ruth 1:16.


NE fine summer day, a good man named Boaz went out into
his corn-fields where his reapers were cutting down the
wheat. "The Lord be with you," he said. "The Lord bless
thee," they answered. Then he saw a young woman
gleaning, whom he had never seen before.
He asked who she was. He heard that her name was Ruth, and she
was a stranger and a widow. Then why had she come there?
Because she could not bear to leave her husband's mother, Naomi,
alone in her old age. She knew that if she kept with Naomi she must
be poor and forlorn, and away from all her friends; but she loved her
mother-in-law so much, that she said, "Intreat me not to leave thee,
or to return from following after thee: * * * where thou lodgest, I
will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God:
where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried."

RUTH AND NAOMI.—Ruth 1:16.

When Boaz knew that Ruth was poor and a stranger, he told his
reapers to drop some handfuls of corn in her way; and he told Ruth
to keep among his young maidens, so that nobody might be rude to
her, and that she might rest and eat among them when they rested
in the heat of the day.

RUTH GLEANING IN THE FIELD OF BOAZ.—Ruth 2:5.

Ruth carried home plenty of corn to her mother-in-law. And soon it


was found out that Boaz was their nearest friend; and he married
Ruth, and Naomi lived with them; and Ruth was no longer poor and
a stranger, but was happy as a wife and mother in her beautiful
home.
QUESTIONS.

1. What was the name of the mother of whom we hear to-day? 2. Whose
mother was she? 3. But who was good to her? 4. What did Ruth do for
Naomi? 5. Where did she go to glean? 6. Who saw her? 7. What did Boaz bid
his men do? 8. How did Boaz speak to his men? 9. How did they answer? 10.
How was he kind to Ruth? 11. What did she find out? 12. Whom did Ruth
marry? 13. What became of Naomi? 14. Why was Ruth so happy?

THE REIGN OF SAUL.


FIRST READING.

"Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, He hath also rejected thee
from being king.—1 Samuel 15:23.

L AST Sunday you heard how God chose


Saul to be king of Israel, and promised
to help him if he would obey in all that
God commanded him.
Now, there were some cruel robbers that
lived in the mountains, and used to fall
upon peaceful people and kill them; and
take their cows and sheep and camels and
asses, and gold and silver, and all they had.
So God sent a message by Samuel to Saul
and his brave men, to destroy these cruel
people; but God said that none of all their
prey and riches, that had been gained by such wicked ways, was to
be kept by His people; it was all to be made away with; they were to
have none of it for themselves.
They won the battle, and killed the robbers, as they were sure to do
when God helped them; but then when they saw such fine cattle
and choice things, they would not obey God, but went and took it all
for themselves. They left only the poor and mean that they did not
care for, and helped themselves to all they liked.
And then, when Samuel came to meet them, Saul made as if he had
done just what he was told, and said, "I have obeyed the voice of
the Lord." But Samuel said, "What meaneth then this bleating of the
sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of oxen which I hear?"
Saul wanted to make excuses; but it was not the first time he had
been disobedient; and he was only frightened, he was not really
sorry; so Samuel was obliged to tell him, "Because thou hast
rejected the word of the Lord, He hath also rejected thee from being
king."

SAUL TEARING THE ROBE OF SAMUEL.—1 Sam. 15:27, 28.

Saul would not do as he was told, and so God punished him.


Remember that. Your parents and teachers, or nurses, give you
orders; and you have to mind them exactly—not only to do what you
like, and miss out the rest. Saul did what he liked when he fought
the robbers, but he would not obey when he took the spoil. Then
God was angry with him. Do not you be like him; but obey when you
do not like, as well as when you do like.

DAVID ANOINTED BY SAMUEL.—1 Sam. 16:11, 12.

SECOND READING.

"I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him."—
Psalm 89:20.
HE hills that lie above Bethlehem have green slopes where
the sheep feed. There, one day, a flock was feeding, and a
boy with blue eyes and shining hair watched them, and
perhaps sung as he watched. He was the youngest of eight
brothers, and all the rest had gone down to a great feast;
for Samuel, the great Prophet, was come to visit their father.
But the
youngest
must stay
out with the
sheep. No
one would
want him.
But see a
messenger
is coming up
the hill. He
calls—David
Samuel goeth to BETHLEHEM is wanted.
The Prophet
has called for him. So the boy is obedient, and
rises up, to run down the hill at his father's call.
Perhaps he stopped to wash his face in the clear The Elders Alarmed
Are here all thy children?
well of Bethlehem before he went up to the HE KEEPETH THE SHEEP
place of the feast, the same place where Boaz
had brought his bride Ruth, for Jesse, David's
father was Ruth's grandson.
There stood the Prophet, with his long white hair flowing down; and
as soon as young David came in, he stepped forward with a horn in
his hand, and sweet-smelling oil of olives mixed with incense was
flowing upon David's golden hair. He was the Anointed of the Lord.
In time to come he would be king, but he must wait long and
patiently first.
Yes. Each of his seven brothers had passed before Samuel—tall
goodly men—but God had spoken to Samuel, and forbidden him to
choose them; for Samuel could only see their fine handsome faces
and figures, but God looked at their hearts, and knew they were
proud men, who would soon have been as fierce and headstrong as
Saul himself. So he had sent Samuel to choose the youngest and
least thought-of of all Jesse's sons, and anoint him to be king of
Israel. Yes; and above all, to be the forefather of our Blessed Lord
Jesus Christ.

"I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of
Israel."—1 Samuel 17:45.

HOUGH King Saul had beaten the Philistines, still they used
to come back again and try to conquer the Israelites.
Once they came with an army, and Saul had an army too.
The Israelites were on one hill and the Philistines on
another hill, and there was a valley between. Then out in
front of the Philistines' camp came a giant named Goliath; for there
really were giants then, and Goliath had three brothers as tall as
himself.
Goliath was nearly twice as tall as any man we ever saw, and he had
a helmet on his head, and armour on his breast, and an enormous
spear, and a shield, and a man carried a shield before him. He stood
out, and called to know if any Israelite would fight with him. Then if
Goliath conquered the Israelite, the Philistines should be the lords
over the Israelites; but if an Israelite conquered Goliath, then the
Israelites should be lords over the Philistines.
But nobody felt bold or strong enough to go out to fight with this
great man; and day after day he came and walked up and down,
and laughed the Israelites to scorn for not daring to come out, they
who called themselves the servants of God.

DAVID SLAYING GOLIATH.—1 Sam. 17:50, 51.

At last a young shepherd boy came to the camp. He had three


brothers among Saul's soldiers, and his father had sent him to take
them some loaves of bread, and see how they were. The shepherd
boy's name was David. When he came he saw the proud Goliath
walking up and down boasting against the Israelites; he asked the
soldiers about him, and was so eager that at last they brought him
to the king; and Saul asked him how it was that he, who was only a
youth, could dare to think of fighting with a man of war like Goliath.
David answered that when he was keeping his flocks a lion and a
bear had come and tried to take away a lamb. And God had made
him strong to kill both the lion and the bear, and saved him from
danger; and he trusted that in like manner God would help him if he
fought with the giant.
So Saul wanted to dress David in his own armour, but it was too
large for him, and he would not use it. All he did was to choose five
smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into his shepherd's
bag. And he took his sling, a long strip of leather, the ends of which
he used to hold in his hand to throw stones farther with, when he
wanted to drive beasts away from his flock. And with only his sling
and his stone he went out to meet the giant.

SAUL CASTING HIS JAVELIN AT DAVID.—1 Sam. 19:9, 10.


Goliath was fierce and angry when he saw such a boy, and he
thought it was only laughing at him to send no better warrior to fight
with him. But David said, "Thou comest to me with a sword and with
a spear and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the
Lord of hosts, * * * whom thou hast defied."

THE PARTING OF DAVID AND JONATHAN.—1 Sam. 20:42.


DAVID AND ABIGAIL.—1 Sam. 25:32, 33.

Then David took one of his stones and slung it out of his sling. It
struck the very middle of the giant's forehead, and went deep in,
and down fell Goliath. All his great strength was of no use to him,
and David ran and stood upon him, and drew out his great sword
from his side, and cut off his head.
All the other Philistines fled away, and David gave thanks to God for
his great victory.
By-and-by David came to be king instead of Saul; and he loved God,
and trusted in Him so faithfully that God Himself called him a man
after His own heart.

KING DAVID REIGNING.


FIRST READING.

"How are the mighty fallen!"—2 Samuel 1:19.

HE last thing that has to be told about Saul is very


sad. You know he would not do as God bade him,
but chose to go his own way. Then God forsook
him, and left him to grow worse and worse. Then
his enemies, the Philistines, came up against him,
and his army came together on the hills to meet
them.
But God was not with Saul, so his men could not
fight, and he was beaten back step by step up into
his own hills, close to his home; and there, when he found he could
go no further, and that the Philistines would soon be upon him, he
did the saddest thing of all—he threw himself on his own sword, that
they might not take him alive.
He did not quite kill himself; and when a young robber came by,
trying to get garments and weapons from the dead bodies, the
unhappy king begged for a death-blow as he lay. The robber gave
him the last stroke, and then took the crown from his helmet, and
his bracelets, and brought them to David, to show that he was dead.
The robber thought he should have a reward, but David put him to
death for having dared to strike the king: and David grieved and
mourned for Saul, who had been a great and noble king once. But
