The STORY.

DALAK, king If the Moabitcs. was
ID in sore trouble. For days and
nights now he had neither eaten nor
slept. for not one but scores OF mes
sengers had come ia haste to his pal

ing stories OF strange and terrible
people who had come out OF Egypt
aud were sweeping the inhabitants Of
the land before them.
At first he had received the reports
with disdain, declaring that the
mighty men of Moab were able to
Withstand such enemies but as the
reports grew more alarming and he
had been Informed fully as to the
fearful destruction Of the Amoritcs a
fierce and powerful people to- the
south of his domains, his confidence
had quite deserted him ln his anx-
iety he had gone out 90 one OF the
high mountains overlooking the place
where Israel lay Cncampcd. and as his
eyes took in the great stretch Of tents
and noted the military precision and
order with which the camp was laid
out, he found little to rcassure him

His dwelling place, and that cloud

SERMONETTE.

Balaam is one Of the strange,
Inconsistent characters we find
in the Bible. Although not a
Hebrew, but a dweller among
the heather. yet in some way
which Scripture does not reveal
he was possessed of a certain
knowledge Of the one true God.
The most important question
which arises in connection with
Balaam is: Did he live up 10
the light that he had? BY this
question we may measure the
man, and perhaps discover why
he presents so weak, so miser-
able a picture and plunges at
last upon the very swords Of the
people Of the God in whom he
believed.
There is no evidence 10 show
that ealaam, enlightened with a
knowledge of the true God,
sought TO let the light shine and
win the people among whom he
dWeIt from their heathenism. In
fact, we find to the contrary,
for II is certain that he dehased
his knowledge Of the true God,
and his brilliant attainments,
traffcking in them for the gold
and favor Of kings
How deplorable is the condi-
ton of the soul that lives not up
to the privilege of it's light, that
reduces everything to the cur
rency of this world, and is con-
tent to dwell on the low plane
of the merely sensual and tenn
poral.
Balaam knew the true God,
but there were some things he
cared more for than the true
God. How true this is of multi
tudes i'm the world to-day. They
have knowledge of the true God.
and yet they prefer TO dwell
apart from Gods people, they
coVet the things of the world
and gladly receive the homage
and tribute Of the people OF the
world.
II was SaIaam's willfulness
and not Gods graciousness
which at last wrung the permits
sion to go with 8aIak's messen-
gers. And BaIaam is not the
last person whose willfuI, per-
verse heart has oVerriden the
eHrrpe ead will IF GOd
6alaam could hobnob with
kings who were plotting the
downfall of Gods people, but he
could not alter the Divine pur-
poses concerning them. How
limited after all are the powers
OF evil.
A consecrated heart never
goes with an itching palm.
IL is possible for one to see
with the cIearness Of an angel
of light, and live like a creature
of darkness.
To, know God and to live God
are two different propositions.
The one is like the electrical
apparatus all equipped for use,
the other is the apparatus with
the current turned on perform
ing it's functions.
High and holy gifts may be
prostituted to base uses.
II is poor testimonial to a
mans religion when he can live
in a community without making
IL better.
