Living for God.

The last picture Is that in which
the "out-and-out" Christian Is seen in
Abram. The underlying principle of
his life seems to be that he had made
up his mind to serve God alone. He
was far from being perfect man. He
made many mistakes and even COM
mitted some SINS But underneath he
was living for God. He had learned
thou shalt have no other God before
me" and his life was governed by
this principle. He recognized that he
could serve only one master with any
hope of success and he chose to have
the Lord as that one Master. What
he was and had and hoped to be be-
longed to that Master to do with as
the Master desired. Where he was
to be and go depended on that Mas
ter's direction. He would not lean to
his own understanding nor judge by
the sight of his eyes nor walk by his
own wisdom. He would gladly take
the seeming second best from God, be-
lieving that whatever appearances
might say, they could not tell the
whole truth. 1t looked to Abram any
thing but good when he was asked
to give his own son to God, but even
that was good in the eyes of God. and
now that the story is all told. it is
good in the eyes of Abram too. II
those who are gone could. from their
graves, gaze over the path they have
trodden and then speak to US, the
unanimous testimony would be that
Gods way Is best.
The men of Sodom lived for self
alone and lost themselves and all they
had; Lot lived for self and God and
lost all he had Of peace or power or
property; Abram lived for God alone
and, while he was not perfect man,
there was given to him the peace OF
God and power for God and posses
sions from God. Choose ye this day
whom We will serve"
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1915-03-26

today. They are those whose under
Tying principle might be termed liv-
Ing for self alone. They do not care
for real religion, but are occupied en-
tirely with the things of time and
sense. What they will eat today or
what they will wear tomorrow Is to
them vastly more important than how
they will stand before God in the
future. Their effort Is concerned with
this life alone, and they live and work
and play as though there were no such
thing as eternity and no such person
as God. They come to the end like
the man who told himself he could re-
tire from business because he had
much goods laid up for many years
and he could now afford to enjoy the
fruits Of his toll and eat, drink and
be merry. But he had laid up all his
goods on the earth; they were not
taken from him, but he was taken
from them, and 1t Is no wonder the
Lord says he was fool. The class
under consideration are not neces-
sarily bad people, for usually they are
tolerant Of religion, as the people Of
Seldom did not mind having Lot in
their midst. But the religion that
Lot had was not very insistent When
it would threaten to interfere with
business or with pleasure it must not
be heard. 1t was time then to laugh it
out of court as a sort of fable, and
when it became personal Lot was to
them as one who Knocked. And God
draws the picture Of the end of these
who live for self alone. They come
to the end so hardened against relig-
ion that they court their own doom. as
the men of Sodom were overcome by
the catastrophe which overwhelmed
both them and their city.

Living for Self and God.

The second picture Is that of Lot, in
whom the half-and-half Christian is
easily seen. This man illustrates
those who seem to have, as the under.
lying principle of life, the idea Of liv.
ing for self and for God too. They at
tempt to serve two masters, and, fail
ing to serve either, come to the end
with nothing to show for their labor.
They trust their own vision and live
by sight and not by faith. Lot looked
on the well-watered plain and, as far
as he could see, it was the very thing
he ought to have, the very thing that
was best for him. But, as God saw,
1t was the very thing he ought not to
have, the thing that was worst for
him. He hazarded everything he had
or hoped to have-himself, his family,
his property-on what he could see
with his own eyes. when he might
have chosen what God could see. He
trusted himself rather than God and
the results we're inevitable. He lost
what God would have given him and
he lost the enjoyment the men OF
Sodom had; for all the time he was
there his righteous soul was vexed.
He was neither out and out for self
nor out and out for God. He had tried
to live for God and self, he had tried
to serve two masters and to get both
the wealth Of Sodom and the wealth
Of God. But he ended with awful dis.
aster, losing his property, his testi.
mony, his family-all that he had. It
is still true that one cannot serve God
and Mammon The half-and-half
Christian neither has peace and en-
joyment in this life nor riches and
power in the next.

PRESSURE OF SHELLS
CAUSES QUICK DEATH
One of Wars Mysteries SCisn-
tifiCaI|y Explained.

Paris.-It has often been told how
soldiers have been found dead, struck
down apparently in an instantaneous
death, without any outward sign or
wound. 1t is now explained that the
sudden variation Of atmospheric pres
sure caused by the bursting Of French
high explosive shells is sufficient to
cause instantaneous passing from life
to death.
This was discovered by an officer
who observed the peculiar behavior of
an aneroid barometer in a room near
where a big shell had burst. 1t was
seen that the barometer was thrown
out of gear, and the only conclusion
that could be arrived at was that a
sudden depression had caused an alb
normal swelling of the metallic case
and displaced the levers. Reproducing
in a laboratory the conditions necessa-
~ to have the same effect, it was
found that reduction of pressure Of
1873 inches in mercury was required
for the purpose, corresponding to an
air velocity of 9O5 feet a second.
The sudden depressions caused by
bursting shells may be compared with
what is observed in the case of man
who, after being subjected to a pres
sure of many atmospheres in a diving
bell, is too rapidly brought back to a
normal pressure. A 81 ,den depression
brings about an escape Of the gases
contained in the human blood in the
small arteries. The series Of little bub-
bles thus formed produces a capillary
pressure antagCnStic to that of the
heart, and death ensues by stoppage
Of the circulation Of the blood and as
phyxiation. for the return to primitive
pressure is powerless to dissolve the
generated gases quickly enough.
One OF the deductions drawn from
this discovery is that in future wars
it might be interesting to see how far
death might be inflicted painlessly and
instantaneously through asphyxiation
by artillery fire rather than by man
Cling wounds.

Harvest in RichIand County.

Richland Republican Observer: The
rain last week fairly demoralized har-
vest work on the farms. The oat crop
is unusually heavy and the storm either
leveled it to the ground or twisted it
into bewildering entanglements. The
task of harvesting it will be a trying
one. The long tangled straw wraps on
every shaft and pulley and it is even
told about the reels on the binder be-
coming wrapped full of the crazy grain.
The bundles come from the machine all
fastened together and the patience of
the farmer is sorely tried. Some farm
ers will turn their hogs into the oats
rather than try to harvest it.

Earliest English Surname.

History shows that surnames did
not come into general and heredi-
tary use in England until after the
Norman conquest, when the upper
classes were first known by the names
of their lands. The lower orders took
the names of trades, birds, animals
and various other objects in art and
nature. We are told that the earliest
English surname is "Hatta"
