Eopic Fer the Week Beginning sept.
13--Comment by Rev. y. n. Doyle.
Topic.-Feasting that maketh lean souls
lex. xvi. rs; Ps. cvi, 1915. tTemper-
ance.)
Feasting is not generally supposed
TO produce leanness, and yet it is
known to all that there is feasting-a
feasting of the body-that does pro-
duce a leanness-Za leanness of soul. In
deed, spiritual leanness is usually an
accompaniment of physical feasting.
FeastiIg and drinking are not pro-
ductiTe of spiritual growth. Excess in
either produces the opposite result. As
an Illustration of this truth, the topical
reference gives US the instance of the
lsraelites in the wilderness. Between
Elim and Sinai the children of Israel
murmured against Moses and Aaron
and said, Would to God we had
died by the hand of the Lord in
Egypt. when we sat by the flesh
pots and when we did eat 10 the full,
for We have brought US forth into this
wilderness TO kill this whole assembly
with hunger" God gave them food.
The psalmist says. He gave them their
request, but sent leanness into their
souls" Their bodies were fed. but
their souls were starved. In their
prosperity they forgot God and neglect
ed to live I'm vital and living commun-
ION with Him. and were constantly
wandering from Him and falling into
temptation
The application of this subject TO
temperance is easily made and readily
understood. Intemperance in drink is
disastrous in many ways. but il is espe-
cially disastrous TO the spiritual life.
The soul is lean indeed when the body
is fun of wine instead Of the spirit of
God Drunkenness dwarfs and de-
stroys soul life. 1t makes 1t impos-
sible for a man TO live in vital and
living conn lnicn with his God, il
makes him an easy victim to the
temptations of life about him, and the
Scriptures clearly state that the drunk
ard shall not inherit the kingdom of
heaven.
Along all lines intemperance is
deadly foe to spirituality. And this is
one of the strongest reasons why it
should be avoided ard opposed by all
who do avoid it We should not only
obey the injunction, BE not drunken
with wine, wherein is excess. but lie
filled with the Spirit" but we should
also strive to lead others TO obey this
command and as far as possible TO
make it impossible for men to become
intemperate. Total abstinence should
be practiced and preached; the saloon
should be courageously opposed and
prayer offered to God for its speedy
overthrow. In doing these things we
shall be opposing one of the greatest
destroyers of spiritual life and make it
possible for thousands who are spiritu-
ally debased now to be filed with the
spirit Of God.

poisonous serpents, against which
warfare is waged by state-paid SER
pent hunters. >They are killed in
thousands, and the price per head
is 2Hd. There was some time ago
a famous serpent killer in the forests
of Southampton, John Milly, who in
AZ years of hunting killed more than
10000 vipers, says the London Tat
tier. A Frenchman named Courtol,
who hunted in the Loire district, can
be compared to Milly, as he was
credited with having killed 10000 ven
fomous reptiles. His only weapons
we're one or two massive sticks. AS
soon as he saw the serpent he adj
vanced and hit IL violently, either
killing or stunning It.; with the sec
ond stick he pinned it to earth and
cut off the head with n huge pair
of scissors. But along with these
simple weapons Courtol possessed o
thorough knowledge of the habit of
serpents. He knew when and where
to find them. In two days near Puy-
a-Clermont he killed 230 of them, and
not only did he kill the poisonous
creatures, but he would capture them
living when desired.
