DAVID BECOMES.

The International Sunday school
lesson for Sept. Is is found in II. Sam
uel H., ITO. The golden text Is found
in Psalm cxxxiii., 1. The time is 1000
B. c.
We have see how David. though
he had come to know why Samuel had
anointed him, would do nothing against
Saul. After Sauls death he acted just
as nobly as he had done while his
enemy was living. He would not re-
member the evil that Saul had DONE
but only the good. He mourned Saul
as he was at his best-the affable
king, the brave warrior, the generous
friend. Note his testimony to both
Saul and Jonathan in "The Song of
the Bow" and also his gratitude to the
Jabesh- glleadites for the rescue of the
bodies of Saul and his sons. In the
coming history we shall see how he
behaved towards Saul's house.
From the battlefield of Gilboa a mes
senger fastened to announce to David
the defeat and death of Saul. Instead
of rejoicing, David mourned for Saul
and Jonathan. His lamentation, call
the most beautiful personal tributes in
all literature. The Amalekite who
brought the news presented David with
Saups crown and bracelet claiming to
have slain the king with his own
hand, though at Saul's request. This
was undoubtedly a lie invented for
anticipated reward. We learned in
our last lesson that Saul committed
suicide. David believed the lie, but re-
warded the liar very unexpectedly by
ordering him to be executed for slay-
ing "Jehovah's anointed.'

FEASTlNG THAT MAKES LEAN
SOULS.

The Baptist Young Peoples union
topic for Sept. 10 is found in Exodus
xvi. 2-5; Psalm evil, 1875. Points for
study: -
What happened at Belshazzar's
feast?
What was the vow Of the Nazarite?
What resolve did Paul make about
eating and drinking?
temperance is a noble word, but it
too often narrowed by its advocates.
The Bible is emphatic against drunk
enness, but 1t does not restrict TEMPER
ance to this one bodily appetite. It
sees intemperance just as truly in the
longing Of the self-indulgent Israelites
after the flesh pots of Egypt, or in the
selling of his birthright by Esau for a
mess of pottage, as in wine drinking
To be temperate, in the Bible sense.
means to control the body. Where the
soul rules, power is in the right place.
Where the body rules, power is in the
wrong hands. In the Old Testament
and the New, the saints have been
those who kept the body in subsection
to the soul. Elijah dwelt in the desert,
and so did John the Baptist. These
men were temperate in the full sense
of the word-the perfect control of bod
lily desires by the overruling soul.
We should strive to possess the whole
Of temperance-not merely abstinence
from liquor. The man who envies his
neighbours riches, or Is gluttonous in
eating, or cannot curb his passionate
temper. is not temperate, and his in
temperance brings leanness in his soul.
MANS chief end is to glorify God,
and to enjoy Him forever" Our bodies,
therefore. are meant to glorify God in
daily living. They are the temples of
the Holy Ghost. A pure soul in a pure
body, a sound mind in a sound body.
glorify God by showing what he meant
body and soul to be.
But body defiled and infiamed by
intemperanee is a shame to its owner.
An enfeebled and debased will cannot
serve God rightly. Drink brings shame.

Here and Now.

We shall do so much in the years to come,
But what have we done today?
We shall give our gold in a princely sum-
But what did we give today?
We shall lift the heart and dry the tear.
We shall plant hope in the place Of fear.
We shall speak the words of love and
cheer,
But what did We speak today?
We shall be so kind in the after while,
But what have We been today?
We shall bring to each lonely life a smile,
But what have we brought today?
We shall give to truth a grander birth.
And to steadfast faith a deeper worth,
We shall feed the hungering souls Of
earth;
But whom have We fed today?
We shall reap such joys in the by and by,

We shall build us mansions in the sky,

What have we done today?'

THE LITTLE PATHS.

They are cleaning out the highways
Up and down the land, my dear:
But thousand little byways
They know nothing of, 1 fear.
They clear the greater roads of snow,
And let the little side-paths go.
Oh! it's you and must follow
Though We may not follow far,
Up the hill and down the hollow
Where the paths forgotten are
Let's never mind the bigger path.
But find what need the home road hath.
So, the first thing in the morning,
While the dawn is In the sky
And the plowmen shout their warming
That the plows are passing by,
Let's hurry out with brave good cheer,
And make the little pathways clear

A NAME IN THE SAND.

Alone I walkd the ocean strand:
A pearly shell was in my hand:
stoop'd and wrote upon the sand
My name-the year-the day.
As onward from the spot 1 passd,
One lingering look behind 1 cast:
A wave came rolling high and fast,
And wash'd my lines away.
And so, methought, twill shortly be
With every mark on earth from me:
A wave of dark oblivion's sea

Where l have trod the sandy shore
Of Time, and been to be no more
or me-my day-the name bore,
To leave nor track nor trace.
And yet, with Him who counts the sands
And holds the waters in his hands,
know a lasting record stands,
Inscribed against my name,
OF all this mortal part has wrought,
Of all this thinking soul has thought:
And from these fleeing moments caught
For glory or for shame.

Feasting and drinking are not pro-

either produces the opposite result. As
an illustration OF this truth, the topical

I've learned as days have passed me
Fretting never lifts the load,
And that worry. much or little,
Never smooths an irksome road.
For you know that somehow, always,
Doors are opened. ways are made,
When we work and live in patience
Under all the crosses laid
He who waters meadow lilies
With the dew from out the sky,
He who feeds the fluttering sparrows
When in need for food they cry,
Never fails to aid His children
In their stress. though great or small
For His ear.is always open

The habit of swearing in public or
indeed anywhere, is offensive and is
usually condemned by the laws and
police regulations, though it has be-
come so common as to be almost
national evil. The street corner talk
or loungers is often unfit for the ears
OF decent people. Men indulge in the
grossest forms Of expression without
thought for the sensibilities of pass
ers, and seldom do creatures of this ilk
think to lower their voices in the pres
ence of women and children. 1t would
be well if an occasional prosecution
served the excellent purpose of en-
phasizing the fact that society holds to
certain conventions as to speech which
cannot be lightly disregarded

Kindness is the sunshine of life. 1t
steals into the deepest recesses of the
heart and brings to light the golden
treasures that were hidden there. Kind
ness infused into the lullaby of the mother
makes her chant the sweetest song on
earth; kindness effa ces the wrinkles from
the brow of the father toiling for the
daily bread. Kindness does not con-
sist in precious gifts, but in the gentle
ness and generosity of a loving spirit.
The gift of money flows from an open
and ample purse but kindness flows from
the depth of the heart 1t is the little
kindneSses in daily life, such as affection
ate words, pleasant deeds, that brighten
life and charm the soul 1t is the little
things in life that make up the great
sum of its happiness.
If you have not gold or silver
Ever ready to command,

You can be a true disciple

The bright and sunny world within the
happy minded is projected outward and
ohjectifed until every cloud that drapes
the sky has a golden border, and every
mountain peak Of difficulty that obstructs
human progress is bathed in the light of
the coming dawn. Even the valley of
humiliation and of sorrow when viewed
through their eyes. is threaded by a silver
Streamlet, on whose banks bloom tho
blessed flowers of peace and hope.
Here is Aristotle's definition of a noble
character: He does not recollect injus-
tice; for. accurate recollection. especially
of injuries. is not characteristic of the
magnanimous man, but he rather over
looks them. He is not fond of talking Of
people, for he will neither speak for him
self nor anybody else; for he does not care
that he himself should be praised nor that
others fShOliId he blamed.
