This is the fourth lesson on tenn

signed for International Temper
ance Sunday. There r many mo-
tives> for abstinence from intoxi-
eating liquor, but this lesson stress
es and emphasizes the highest mo-
tive of all, namely, the motive OF
moral discipline.
Various motives have influenced
those who have followed abstin-
ence without this motive in mind.
There has been the motive of eco
nomy, the motive of good health.
of unwillingness to take into the
body anything that is harmful in
it's effects, the motive of care and
voidance of evil consequences,
and the motive of common sense
which has enabled many to see
that indulgence in alcohol is a
needless harmful, thing.
No one ever suffered from tenn.
perance and total abstinence, but
thousands-millions, in fact-have
suffered from intemperance.
+
The motive of moral discipline,
or, as it is put in the title of the
essen, The Christian Motive TO,
Abstinence" finds its exemplifica'
ton in the lives of individuals who
have been conspicuous for the pur'
ity of their lives and their devotion
to the highest ideals.
