HAGAR IN THE WILDERNESS.
THIS thrilling scene is intended to illustrate the following verses: "And the water was
spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
And she went and sat her
down over against him a good way off, as it were a bow shot : for she said, Let me not see the
death of the child.
And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice and wept." M. Dore
has given the spirit of this incident without adhering strictly to the literal details. The lamen-

DEBORAH'S SONG OF TRIUMPH
THE Song of Deborah (though accredited in Holy Writ to both Deborah and Barak) is
considered one of the most magnificent outpourings of patriotic poetry and fire that has ever
been penned. Barak, incited by Deborah, had overcome the army of Sisera, and the leader had
been slain by the hand of Jael and this glorious outburst of triumphant song was in celebration
of that victory, which resulted in the deliverance of Israel from the oppression of Jabin. In this
fine engraving the regal figure, glowing countenance and intensity and vigor of movement,
