that he pledged himself to not run
again in case Of serious opposition, and
some of them would be disposed to ask
him pointed questions about it. So the
present plan is for him to make his
campaign speech nominally on the
moor of congress and include it in a
congressional document and thus be
able to send it free of postage all over
the district. The work for Smith will
be that of organizing and getting the
names of all voters to whom this lit

a speech which will make him the
special champion and defender OF Taft

Relation of Prayer.

Ask, seek, knock! Here is an ascending
scale. Each word is more intense and more
importunate than the one preceding it.
Prayer is to be a part Of our daily life. It
is communion with God. 1t is the armory
in which the Christian is to be panoplied
for the conflicts in which he is to engage.
1t is more. 1t is the holy of holes In
which he allies himself with God and
from which he goes forth to victory.
The praying man is always a conqueror.
The praying church is always resistless.
We should ever remember that God is
on the side of such a reform as this
There is nothing that so destroys the
image OF God in man as alcohol. 1t rots
the moral fiber, it perverts the moral
sense and 1t buries every noble aspira-
ton beneath an avalanche of beastli-
ness.
Here in our efforts to overthrow this
given youisseek, and We shall find: knock,
promise is sure. Gods shall never fail.
For is not He a father? Do earthly
fathers refuse to hear the cry of their
children? Do they give stone for bread,
or a serpent for fish? Are the instincts
of fatherhood, though debased by evil,
infallible? Then how much more" that
is a phrase whose depths and heights
surpass all our measurements. How
much more" shall your Heavenly Father
give good things to them that ask Him?
Hero then is the Christian character
Omnipotence is pledged to give us the
victory.

Golden Rule on Harsh Judgments

Judge not, that We be not judged"
This command does not forbid US to
estimate the characters Of others. Such
command would be unreasonable and
impossible of fulfllment. We are so con-
stituted that we must be impressed by
the conduct of our fellows, and the sixth
and the sixteenth verses of this chapter
REQUIRE us to estimate the characters or
those about us. The thing forbidden IS
harsh Judgment, such Judgment as we
would not have others pass upon US
under similar circumstances.
Now is it harsh judgment when we
accept the teachings of experience. or
observation, of the most learned ply
sicians and of the most judicfous states
men concerning the use of alcohol as a
beverage? When the facts are so over
whelming and SO appalling that the candid
mind is driven perforce to the conclusion
that it's free and unrestrained sale Is at
once a nuisance and a crime?
Now let us turn this question around,
and ask If this is the verdict that We
would have others pass upon US If we
were engaged in this nefarious raft1c?
The answer to this is simple. Without
pre- .ent views of the effects OF IN
temperance such a business would for
us be impossible. But. supposing 1t pos
sible, then. it is just the verdict that we
would expect, and 1t is the verdict that
we would wish.

Casting Pearls Before Swine.

Swine in Palestine were at best but
half tanned, the hog being, to the Jew,
an unclean animal. The wild boar haunts
the Jordan valley to this day. Small
pearls, called by the jewelers. seed
pearls, would resemble the peas or the
maize on which the swine fed. They
would rush upon them when scattered.
and discovering the cheat. would tramDle
upon them and turn their tusks upon
the man who scattered them.
The application of this to the question
of temperance is plain. There are men
SO blinded by passion and prejudice, SO
dominated by the love of gain that it is
useless to argue with them. They can
not understand high Christian motives.
With them liberty spells license. The
church can make but little Roadway with
such men. 1t is a casting Of pearls before
the swine.
Hence the Importance of the instruc-
ton of children. While the church should
never relax its efforts to convince the
user and the traff1cer in alcohol of the
errors Of their ways, systematic and
persistent efforts should be made with
the children. Education should be
thorough. The pearls of truth will be
appreciated and treasured. They will be
worn through all their after years as
their most valued jewelry.

gold: but it is the ennoblement Of men.
The trend of this vast business Is toward
human deterioration. In proportion to
it's success morals decline and vice ana
crime increase.
The golden rule would smite it down
with merciless blows. Whatever protects
the weak and defends the helpless Is of
God. And right views of this business,
of it's effect upon the man. the home. the
nation; it's degrading, whitening, blight
ing influences wherever established would
lead us to say that If I or an angel from
heaven were engaged in it. it deserves
speedy and utter destruction. In God 8
sight the waif. the orphan, the beggar
is of more value than all the millions
that this goddess traffic has been able to
accumulate.
We repeat, in a court of equity. where
the golden rule is law, the traffic in In
toxicants would be shown no mercy. We
come now to the application of the gold
en- rule to the preceding verses.

THE GOLDEN RULE-A TEMPERANCE LES
SON. Matthew. 7:1-12
VHE key to this lesson is found
in the twelfth verse. There
fore all things whatsoever We
III would that men should do to
you, do We even SO to them;
for this is the law and the prophets
This is a summing up of the entire ser
mon to this point Some would-be crit
les have sought to make much OF the
fact that this command was not original
with Christ. Such critics forget that a
truth may be original in more minds than
one. It Is quite true that the idea en-
bodied here is found in negative form
In the writings Of Confucius, Aristotle,
Seneca and Socrates. A negative form
of this saying was also attributed to Hill
lei: What is hateful to thee do not do to
thv neighbor." But in this positive form
it is found nowhere except in the teach
ing of Jesus.
There is an unmeasured distance be-
tween negative and positive teaching. AS
1t stands In the text it says: Put your
self In his place: weak. defenseless, sus-
pected, how would you have another act
toward you? In every case such Is to be
the rule OF your conduct toward him.
