Elijah's great victory over tha
prophets of Ilaal which resulted In
their extermination la followed by a
moit notable prayer service «a the
top of Mount Camel (18:42-45) So
confident wan the prophet that lit. the
arising of "a little cloud." he hastily
summoned the fesHtlug king and urge*
his departure to his home, "that the
rain stop thee not." The Ood whom
KUJ&h had honored so signally that
day laid his hund upon the prophet
(18:461 bo that ho was able to outrun
the king's horses to the entrance of
Jezreol. There he la met by a mes-
senger of the wicked queen (15:2)
who had been the protector and pro-
vider of the slain prophets (letting
his eyes off of Ood and seeing only n
vlln and wicked woman Klljah not
only ran for his life out of Ahab'i do-
mains but also "went a day's Journey
Into tho wilderness" to the protecting
shade of a Juniper treo (v. 4).
I. The Discouraged Prophet, vv.
4-8. Old and young, great and small,
v. c all have our periods of discourage-
ment and frequently despair. Chris
tlan'j encounter with (llant Despair
appeal* to us all for It Is so true to
life. At Cartnel, Klljah controlled (he
king; In hl palace at Jeireel, Jeiebel
soon shattered his good resolutions.
If bo had any. Wo must recall that
It was her prophets Klljah had de-
stroyed. There U a suggestion In the
fact that Elijah did not enter hei
presence (18:46). Yonder In the wil-
derness. his (lethsrntane, Elijah
prayod a vastly different sort ol
prayer than upon Mount CarmeL
Jeiebel Is still In power. Heathenism
Is not overthrown, hi* efforts had beet
but trying to "dam Niagara wlji bul
rushes."
No one who has ever heard the ora.
torio "Elijah" sung will ever forget
the bitter agony of "It Is enough."
Tho prophet w ho alone had been ex.
alt oil to the heights was alone capable
to sounding such a depth of human
despair. Tho sources of his discour-
agement were his physical condition,
his loneliness. Inactivity, mental reac-
tion and a feeling that his cause was
lost
God's first remedy was to feed his
fainting servant and then give hiro a
task to perform, vis., a Journey to
Mount Iloreb (Mount of God), for God
loved him Just as truly now as pre-
viously at Cartnel. in this new
strength Elijah went "forty days" (v
I; I Pet; 2:1).
II. Tha Encouraging God, vv. 9-1S.
Oo<T* second remedy was to give
Klljah his word though this time It
suggested reproof. "What doest thou
here?" Klljah Is out of place. In re-
ply he begins to rehearse his loyalty
to God, and how bad the others were
and then In seeming petulance he
adds, "and they seek my life." "1
only," are the words of the selfish mar
and when Klljah used them ho toe
was a backslidden servant. It Is true
that there was great apostasy In Israel
but the prophet was far from being
the only true servant remaining (9ee
18:4; SO: IS; 22:35, 41; 22:81. This
Is a favorite way the Evil One has fot
paralysing our efforts. There !* no
evidence but that the 7,000 were as
brave, certainly at that moment more
ao. than Elijah. God then continued
his treatment by giving the prophet
a vision of himself and of his nieth
ods for advancing his kingdom A
series of s.vu-.bols made the truth
plainer and more Impressive than
words alone could possibly have
done. I^atlng the protecting cave
Elijah first met a wind which "rent
the mountains." a type of Elijah's past
activity. This was not God's chlel
power nor method. The mighty wind
which destroys Is as nothing com-
pared to the silent forces which cr
ate.
Ml. The Result, vv 14-18. As a sov-
ereign remedy God now set* before
Kltjah three definite tasks to perform
plij.th still speaks of his faithfulnesi
IB though the success of The Cause
depended upon him The man who
assume* that attitude in the work of
God's kingdom will, like Elijah, soon
be set aside Elijah* Prst task was
to avoid Israel and go to Damascus
and "anoint"—set apart for special
service—Ha.-ael tv 17), who vis to
be the Instrument of punishing Israel.
His next task was to find Jehu, the ;
commander in chief of Ahab s army,
and set him aside to be the king, not
Immediately but to be in training for
that office.
Elijah * work Is now not that of fire
ind wind, but of the "still small
voice." To others Is delegated tha
snore spectacular tasks which the**
typify.
In this connection (▼. 17) those are
strange words, shall Ellsha slay."
To fully understand them we mast be
familiar with that prophet's life and
work, also with that accomplished by
lehu. (See 11 Kings 2.23. 34; llos.
• :l. <; lea 11:«)
Elijah's third task was to appoint
his successor and surely no harder
task aver cornea to any of us than to
tan over our work to another.

Washington. With the approach of
the open season for shootlug the wild
fowl, the United States department of
agriculture is warning sportsmen that
the federal regulations as amended
October 1, 1914. will be strictly en
forced. Some misunderstanding has
arisen from the fact that the various
state laws do not always conform to
the federal regulations. This Is re-
garded as unfortunte, but in such
cses the deprtment must Insist upon
the observance of the federal regula-
tions.
Federal regulations divide the
United States into two tones. 7.one
No. 1, the breeding sone. includes tho
states of Oregou. Idaho, Colorado, Ne-
braska. Iowa. Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and
all slates north of them Zone No. 2,
the wintering lone. Include all states
south of those uanied.
The regulations prescribe the sea-
son as follows for Zone No. 2. In which
Oklahoma is located:

Great Truth In Words Which Emer-
son Is Put on Record as
Having Spoken.
It was Emerson who said, "An ac-
ceptance of the sentiment of love
throughout Christendom for a season
would bring the felon and the outcast
to our side In tears, tflth the devotion
of his faculties to our service, l^ove
would put a new face on this weary
old world. In which we dwell as pa-
gans and enemies too long, and it
would warm the henrt to see how fast
the vain diplomacy of statesmen, the
Impotence of armies and navies and
lines of defense, would be superseded
by this unarmed child." Alas that
the sentiment has not been accepted,
but Instead the world and the Indi-
vidual have been laying their plans,
and directing their action, by a calcu-
lation of chances which, of course,
can be no bigger than the human
mind that docs the calculating. That
love has not been tried Is proved
by the collapse of commercial civili-
zation. but the things of commerce
and of calculation perish, while the
sentiment of love endures, because It
Is of God. and being of God, Is sure
In the end to triumph.—Vniversalist
