Temptation.

How can we avoid temptations |;
Some temptations cannot be avoided
Others can. If we have formed
the appetite for strong drink,
we can in some measure avoid the
temptation to crafty the appetite by
keeping away from the place where
such liquor is sold, and by forsakiDg
the company Of those who indulge the
appetite.
But there are temptations which
cannot he avoided. They come to US
when we are alone !; they come with
out war ming they come unexpectedly.
1t Is our business then, not to avoid
but to cop0uer. AS Luther said I'VE

the principles of Gods word. 1t was
in this way that the psalmist expected

foiled the tempter. But with the
knowledge of the word there must

knew what God had said to her, but
she trusted in the DEVILS word rather
than in Gods.
2. BY realizing that Gods eye is
upon US, and that he is near to help

wrong, but Nehemiah said $50 did

From the Arbitrator and Messen.
ger OF Peace.

The highest type of Christian will
certainly not he Que who is success
full" in this world. In my reading
lately I came across "Beatitude of the
Unsuccessful" written by the Rev. J.
r. Miller, D. D., and 40 beautifully eX-
pressed that 1 thought it would com.
fort many of those who have given up
their claim on this world and have
fastened their hope on the Bible prom
ISIS. He says:
There may be no Bible beatItude
saying expressly, "Blessed are the I'm.
successful" but there are beautitudes
which are equivalent to this. We take
from our Lords own lips, "Blessed are
they that mourn" Blessed are We poor.
"Rlessed are they which are persecut.
ed" "Blessed are ye when men shall
hate you"
Then many other scripture passages
have like teaching. Evidently not
all blessings lie in the sunshine ;
many hide in the shadows. We do
not read far in the Bible, especially in
the New Testament, without finding
that earthly prosperity is not the high
est good that God has for men. Our
Lord speaks very plainly about the
perils of worldly success.
The Bible is indeed book for the
unsuccessful. It's sweetest messages
are to those who have fallen. it is a
book of love and sympathy. 1t Is
like mothers BISON to lay ones head
upon in time of distress or pain. Its
pages TEEN with cheer for those who
are discouraged. 1t sets its lamps of
hope to shine in darkest chambers.
1t reaches out its hands Of help to the
fainting and to those who have fallen.
1t is full of comfort for those who ARE
in sorrow. 1t has its many special
promises for the needy, the poor, the
hereft. 1t is a book for those who
have failed, for the disappointed, the
defeated, The discouraged.
1t il this quality in The Bible that
makes it SO dear TO the heart Of hu
manity. If it were book only for
the strong, the successful, the victori.
Gus, the unfallen, those who have nc
sorrow, who never fail, the whole,
the happy, it would not find such q
welcome where ever it goes in this
world. So long as there are tears and
sorrows and broken hearts, aud crush
ed hopes and human failures, and lives
burdened and bowed down, and spir.
its sad and despairing, SO long will the
Bible be book believed in rs of GoL
an inspired book, and full ofinsiration
light, help, and strength for earth's
weary ones.

How IL Came About.

How is 1t thatfn time of peace, with
almost 10 standing army, and in an
area of marvellous material prosperity,
we have been brought thus to the
verge of BANKRUPTCY? The answer is
en-y to him why is able to discern the
signs of the times. Gold has come to
be the general standard of value
among W., and therefore the chief OBJ
ject Of desire. Virtue. patriotism, SER
vice to country must he rewarded i'm
dollars aid cents. The ancient Greek
place laurel wreaths upon the brows
of the victors in their great national
games, and rewarded their heroes with
simple tokens of national gratitude.
Modern vlctors and heroes would re-
gard such simple tokens of favor and
recognition with unmitigated con-
tempt. What care they for laurel
wfeaths and empty votes of thanks /?
Such things do not purchase places or
bay government bonds. "a ten

riate my service. 7 do not work for
fun or for empty honor" Thus is the
Very idea OF patriotism degraded.
Every act of public service must he
lni' for in cash. The patriot must be
lohbed of the honor of uDselGsh sac
rlfice for his country and changed into
Il miserable hireling, by having pen
sion thrust upon him. The party
leader must be rewarded with fat
office. So offices have been multiplied
and salaries increased and subsidies
voted and every form of vicious ex-
lravagance encouraged until we find
ourselves bankrupt i'm time of peace
and prosperity.-St. Louis Christian
