is the atmosphere in which the child lives. Fncurlscloslsiy he ticquires hab- its, lint-s 'of action. and modes of thought from his surroundings, exam- ple and imitation are powerful factors.

The su-ealied nervourchild is fro- quently an lintruined child of untrain- ed and weak parents. it has been esti- mated than 50 per cent. of the nervous children belong in this group. The children are over-stimulated by exces- sive irtterstion, as by rocking and cod- dling.

.\luther's Attitude Important.

The young. inexperienced mother is frequently ‘iionfilseti by her task. ller new responsibility may make her ex- tremely nervous. She shows anxiety if her baby does not sleep, or she ire- comes frenzied if be docs sleep. She overclnlbes him lest he catch cold. She picks him up the moment he cries. Shc paces the floor with him or sings f0 him or rocks hiln. She falls to feed him with rcguiarlity. in short. she _fnils in the normal trnlning pru- (Gilli.

The most characteristic feature in the mL-rttul life of the young mother is her anxiety about the new-born baby. Anxiety may be so far advanced that her judgment becomes unsound and her fears constitute an abnormal nerv- ous condition. Such a mother may imagine that her child is suifering from an incurable disease. ﬁne thinks that she is unable to bathe the baby. She fears that he will drown in the bath or catch cold. She‘ is afraid of taking his temperature for fear of ia- yuring him. She bundles him up un- necessarily. Rhe reads carefully oae of the numerous hooks on the care and feeding of the baby and becomes greatly exercised if he does not gain in accordance with the printed chart. 1f the baby's behaviour does not cor- respond with the descriptions in the text-book shs is alarmed. Because of her unstable nervous condition she asks and receives suggestions from numerous friends and relatives. She becomes more and more confused and fails to carry out normal routine In the care of the infant. Even the phys- ician's orders are ncgl ‘ or mis- understood. This confusion on the part of the mother disturbs the nor- mal life of the infant, who reacts by becoming nervous.

The Danger of Too Inch Attention.

infants and young children fre- quently suffer from the attention show- ered upon them by the parents. num- erous friends and relatives. They are picked up, hugged. kissed, csrressed. shamed ‘at, sung to, exhibited to- frleuds and neighborrby ' king parents until the babies show symp- toms of nervous exhaustion.

‘The young child has the‘ natural tendency to imitate the acts of adults with whom he is constantly associat- ed. The varying moods of the par- ents, their sorrows, joys. lectures and manner of spcech-—-sll make an im- pression upon the child and he imi- tates them unconsciously. He learns by precept and example. His first lessons come to him.ln the home. If the home is calm. cheerful and trau- qnil, the child is happy and evenly poised in his menial and physical life. if, on the other hand. the home is chaotic, and ths parents given to undue eiaotionailsm. the child loses the liner balance of body and mind and he becomes nervous.

(‘liildren are very susceptible to im- pressions received from external sourc- es. This is particularly true of those in runabout age. (‘onvcrsntlons which involve the conduct of the child are frequently carried on iahil IIMIIMQ-

GOD ("YES ‘Illl JIHVS ANOTHER N

God's character is unchangeable and His purposes never change; but His ntethods in dealing with men are as various as ‘the weather. NecesssrPy so, because every individual among us is dllieretit from-every other ‘and needs different treatment, and not only so, hut every one of us is a number of ditferent individuals. We an so many different persons, in fact, that it is a wise man who knows himself. At one moment our thoughts and impulses may be noble and wise: ‘at the next moment they may be base or foolish. and none of us n toll st any moment what turn his houghts may take next. There should be a continual effort to bring "every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ." i2 ‘Cor. 10:5) but the mind is a very wayward thing which tilts from one thought to anoth- er as n butterfly fiits from- ilower to ﬂower. p

God knows our most secret thoughts and He adapts ills methods of dealing with est-h of us to our spiritual condi-

tion as it is reﬂected in our thoughts at the time. lie knows also which of our various moods and tenses are the expression or manifestation qt our

true character, and lie knows whether

we are on the whole gaining or losing

ground spiritually; whether we are

climbing upward or slipping down-

ward; how many of us know that

about ourselves?

When God chose the Children of

israci to be known as ills people. He

purposcd to use them na witnesses for

Him in the presence of all other na- tions. and lie has never altered that purpose, but lie has changed lIis atti- tnde toward. tbcm frequently because of the changes in their spiritual condi- (ion. in the time of David and ﬂoiomon lie luadc Israel a witness to the fact that lie could raise up a small nation which had been sorely oppressed by its neighbors and make it in s very few years the greatest of the natioutunnd now for nearly nineteen centuries the (‘hiltlrels of israel, scattered abroad, with no national home. are living witnesses to the pv-slatencs of God in carrying nut His purposes. Ho has fulfilled ills . warning to their ancestors that He ‘would cast them out of their own laud if they did not repent. and yet he has kept tbcm from being submerged and losing their identity. as other ancient nations did lie has kept the Jews from smalgsmating with other peoples because iiis ultimate purpose with re- turd to them has not yet been accom- plished.

After very long patience with the frequent rebellions of the Kings and people of Judah. when they set God at open defiance by worshipping idols. as well ss by practising all kinds of wick- edness. and when at. last the people re- fused to listen to the warnings of the prophets. God sent them into captivity to Babylon to bring them to their sens- es. They were cast out. but not for- saken. Through Jeremiah and also through lisekiel God promised to bring them back to their own laud and blsss them in it; but ‘ill years were to pass before they could return, sud than it would be the children and children's children of the people who were taken away that would coals back: and in the meantime they would have learned to hate idolatry and to pride them- selves on being God's people.

When Cyrus the Ores! had dyer- thrown the Babylonian empire Daniel. who was in high favor with the new government. was convinced that the time for tbs restoration of the Jews to their own land had come. and he prayed earnestly and long for the tui- tiirnent or the promise. (Ble Dan. O: 1- 10 and Jer. ﬂizii. 12. lt is reasonable to assume also that Daniel helped to bring about the fulﬁlment .pf his own prayer by showing Cyrus the prophe- cies of lsslsh and Jeremiah which he

High Priest snd Zerubhsbei, who was s lineal descendant from David and one of the ancestors of Jesus. a' large company of Jews returned to Jerusa- lem in accordance with the |Rl lssion given by Cyrus and they brought with them the vessels of the Temple which Nebuchaduessar had taken sway.

ln Esra Zeruhbsbel is called ths sou of Shealtiel but in hint. 1:12 he is g called the sou" of Ssisthiek-dilsreut forms of tho ssms name, no doubt. Just ss Jeshoa and Joshua and Jes s are the same name. in 1 Chron. 8:19 zer- ubbabsi is called the son of Psdaiah. but in either case he was a grandson of Jecouiah, the captive king of Judah. The totsl number of the company that traveled to Jerusalem under those leaders is placed st 49.01. but of these 7,381 were servants and probably not Jews. The fact that they had so many servants and that some of thsus were able to msks quite considerable con» trihutions toward the cost of building the Temple shows that they had pros- pered in Babylon. The Jews as a race have inherited from their ancestor Jacob a great faculty for making their own way, and in all ages and coun- tries they have proved themselves abls to acquire wealthlif they were allowed anything like an equal chance with others.
