THE RUIN OF ENVY
Lesson Which Is Taught BY the Life
and Punish nent of Miriam, the
Sister OF Moses.

Rev. J. A. Maxwell, d. D., of the
First Baptist Church, Of Mckeesport,
preached a sermon last Sunday from
the life of Miriam, the sister of Moses.
His subject was The Ruin Of Envy.
He said in part:
Miriam had an honorable part
with her two brothers in leading the
Israelites out OF Egypt. The prophet
Micah tells the Israeltes that they
were led out by Aaron, Moses and Mi
riam. Her counsel was doubtless
continuously sought to carry out the
exodus. Miriam was strong and ser
viceable until envy took possession
OF her heart. Then she became de-
piorably weak Her brother Moses
married Cushite woman. This arous-
ed the envy of Miriam. She enlisted:
the sympathy Of Aaron. These two,
Miriam the instigator, began a pro-
tracted detraction of their brother
and sister-in- law. All the mean things
they could say they said. Under the
flood of vituperation both Moses and
his wife we're silent. They awaited
vindication at Gods hands. 1t soon
came, and severe at that. God sent
the foul disease of leprosy to afIlict
Miriam. She was banished into the
wilderness Who can weigh her
hearts sorrow. or measure the length
Of those nights, or tell the bitterness
Of those tears? 0, the severity of the
punishment! How often she wished
that she had controlled her feelings
But it was too late. From the woman
Who stood the first among the women
OF Israel she fell until the vilest fled
from her presence crying 'Unclean!
Unclean," How those words cut.
This is the harvest Of envy. This
is the fruit of SANDER. NO one can
villify another without bringing foul
ness upon his own life. NO one can
Islander another without incurring
moral leprosy. From the approach
Of the dciamer the. redeemed flee,
crying 'Unclean, Unclean,' Many a
person is strong, but his strength is
spoiled by his tongue He who knows
when to open and when to shut his
mouth has learned one of the grea test
arts of life. The spirit OF Moses I'M
der this great trial was most admira-
Bile. He made no reply to anything
said against himself or wife. They
both waited and endured To endure
is the best way to cure IN many
things. There was a tine chance for
2 fight N Israel, and if Moses had not
had more common sense than a good
many people to-day there would have
been a great row. 1t was the for
bearance of two people that saved
the situation If a person is maligned
by another he can infict no punish.
rlent as great as that person Will in
fict upon himself, if he is only let
alone. No use to punish some people.
Let them alone and they'll punish
themselves"
