story furnishes US with two apt illustra-
tions of this theme. On the one hand
we have the neglect on the part Of Eli TO
train his sons, Hophni and Pbinehas, and
we observe the sad results. Ellis sons
were grown up before we read of his re-
monstrating with them; and then, as the
reproof was given too late, it was una
vailing. Concerning their conduct, it
was written, ''They were sons of Belial."
Concerning their religious state, it was
said, ssThey knew not the Lord" And
concerning their father Eli, Jehovah dc
clared, 81 will Judge his house forever.
for the iniquity which he knoweth; be-
cause his sons made themselves vile ;
and he restrained them not.''
ELI HAD FAILED TO INSTRUCT
his children in early life; and therefore
he had neither pleasure in their lives nor
hope in their death. On the other hand,
we have the example of Samuel. Like
many of the noblest men, he had the un-
speakable advantage of godly mother,
who consecrated him to God from his
birth, -saying, Gas long as he liveth,
he shall be lent to the Lord" and he
passed from his mothers side to the
sacred chamber of the tabernacle, as his
future home. Sand the child Samuel
grew on, and was in favor both with the
Lord and also with men," In later life,
his character remained unchanged; for
being man of purity, of prayer and of
prophecy, he was recognized by Israel
from Dan to Beersheba," as "a prophet
Of Jehovah" And, after such life of
faithfulness aud usefulness, it is no won
der that all Israel gathered together and
lamented him. when his body was land
in the burial ground of his,natige village.
Let u, then, regard Samuel as a b. :
liant example OF the truth of Solomon's
words, "Train up child in the way he
should go; and when he is old, he will
not depart from it,"
Thousands of our Christian churches
are not receiving enough members from
adults to make up for their deaths and
removals. Their only hope is to get
the children into the Sunday school
and from the school into the church.
The Sunday school and the Y. r. s. C.
E. are the grandest instrumentalities
that the church has, in the present day,
for its prosperity and growth. And ev-
en- as to the secular effects, It has been
observed that Sunday school teachers
are doing more for the elevation of man,
and for the cause Of good government
than all the politicians and political par
ties combined.
These are some Of the results Of SUM-
day school teaching. It ID work in
which Jesus himself is interested. When

Each, in it's way, will help him to tread
the labyrinths of this world; but, with
out the Bible, there is not word,
thought or hope to lead him to the glor-
les of the next. Without the Sacred
Scriptures the child has simply chart
by which he may navigate the little sea
of time, with every prospect of founder
ing on the great ocean of eternity. Hence
we shonld
MAKE EVERYTHING SUBSEQUENT TO TIE
BIBLE.
Biblical teaching in the Sunday school
is Of inestimable value. It is precious
stone, cut and polished, which will flash
with immortal intelligence, and through
Divine Grace and the Holy Spirits pow
er, it will beam as diamond, studding
Immanuels crown forever.
The beneficial results of early religious
instruction are suggested by our text,
ssWhen he is old he will not depart from
it," Here is encouragement for Sunday
school teachers. Children, as well as
adults, are usually led to Christ by SER
les Of Impressions rather than by single
impression and we know not what share
we, as individual workers, have in pre-
pairing the matured fruit. Time will not
kill the impressions which are made. The
seeds Of early religious teaching which
are sown in the Sunday school may re-
main dormant for awhile; but they will
ultimately terminate and Dear fruit.
Sometimes the effects of Sunday school
work extend even beyond the children
themselves to those with whom the chill
dren come in contact. As an example of
this fact, we mention the following sim
pie story. A Sunday. scholar, Of tender
age, was at home one evening with her
father and with sister one year older
than herself. The father, who was an
ungodly and mineral man. was appar-
emily asleep in his chair. The younger
child said to her sister, ssLet us pray for
father and, kneeling beside his chair,
she said, in gentle tones, so Lord Jesus,
do have mercy on our poor father, and
change his wicked heart" That prayer
was answered. The father, instead of
being asleep, was awake and had heard
the melting words from his infant daugh-
ter's lips. From that time be attended
the house of God and was coon led to
accept and confess Jesus as his Savior
q d Lord.
When apparent failure follows their la
Dor, let teachers take courage. Their
work will not be in vain; for there will
be q harvest as well as seed time.
ssThey that SOW in tears shall reap In joy.
He that goeth forth and weepeth, bear
ing precious seed, shall doubtless come
again with rejoicing bringing his sheayes'
with him. An Old Testament Bible

not; for of such is the kingdom of God.n
We read also that she took them up in
arms, put his hands upon them and bless
ed them.'
TEACHERS COMBINE TO
render to the Lord, willing service in the
Sunday school. This is the sacrifice
God loves, even the service which rises
to the human heart as bubbles rise to
the surface of the stream. He delights
in services which are spontaneously
given, as the flower yields its perfume
and as the birds culver with Gong; be-
cause it is their nature to pour fourth the
treasured sweetness Of their being. Let
your religious instruction be thus rem
dered, joyfully, lovingly. earnestly, per-
severingly and believiugly, and then u
will certainly prove to be the sspower Of
God unto the salvation" Of those who
are being taught.
