They plank themselves right straight alongside of men and say they are just as smart as men are. Of course they are. Women have always known it, but they used to have too much sense to tell It.

They ain't thar." There is nothing a man can stand so much of as praise. With only occasional exceptions a woman hps just about the kind of husband she makes the man who marries her become.

Hoping for assistance from Egypt on the south, Judah revolted, contrary to the warning of the Lord through Jeremiah. The Chaldeans laid siege, and the Egyptian army started for their deliverance. Yet Jereminh persisted in declaring as at first that the end of the kingdom was near, that they would be swallowed up in Babylon. Faithful Jeremiah Persecuted When the Chaldean army had withdrawn from the siege, Jeremiah concluded to cast his lot with some of the nation living outside the city walls In the portion of the tribe of Benjamin. Attempting to do this he was arrested on the charge of disloyalty that he had given himself over to co-work with the Chaldeans against the interests of his own land.

Although he denied the charge he was put Into prison. Jerusalem was honeycombed with underground cisterns and vaults, arched overhead, and these were called "cabins." They were designed to be reservoirs for water in time of drought or of siege. The bottoms of these "cabins," or cisterns, after the removal of the water, were frequently deep with mud and slime. The next chapter tells us of the terrible condition of the dungeon into which Jeremiah was put. We read, "They let down Jeremiah with cords, and in the dungeon there was no water but mire; so Jeremiah sunk in the mire." When finally they drew him out they took "old cast off clouts and rotten rags and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah," who put them under his arms and was drawn up by the cords.

In this dungeon the Prophet remained "many days."

The homes of the Halda tribe are largely among islands and the canoe is their chief means of transportation and In it much of their lives is spent The red cedars of Queen Charlotte's islands produce logs from which are made huge canes, sometimes from 45 to 60 feet in length. The Halda are master craftsmen since there is no other type of dugout canoe so light, graceful and seaworthy as this one they construct. In Haida canoe building, the outside contour is first hewn and carved. Wooden pins are '-iven through the outer surface to indicate the varying thickness of the walls of the canoe, and the interior is dug out to the depths thus fixed.

Such characters we are to emulate. We are to understand that such joy and peace In the midst of sorrow and iersecutlon can come only from the Lord. The Master's words in our text apply yesterday, today and tomorrow so long as the reign of evil Is permitted "Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely for My sake." But to be worthy of this blessing, and to receive It means to davelop and possess a character which the enemies of righteousness would deem worthy of persecution. The Scriptures declare that persecution will be the portion of the faithful people of God through this Age until the establishment of the Kingdom of Messiah. Under the new regime suffering for righteousness will not be possible.

Mark the Master's words. "Whosoever will live godly In this present time shall suffer persecution." To live godly means, not merely to abstain from vicious and overt sin. but to be a hero In the strife, a defender of the ripht and an opposer of the wrong a servant of righteousness, a soldier of the cross.
