PA LESSON 13.-TKMEFRANCE LESSON. Isa. 5: 11-23 Copyright. 190P by 8. 8. T. Co. Partttci in Star tad Wan aalr THE "EARLY BIRDS." 11: "Woe unto them that rise up I early in the morning that they may j follow strong drink. " The other day I saw the dog catcher ! going up the street with a forlorn j looking dog following him. There was an old clothes line around the dog's j neck and the .dog, catcher had the other j end of it. This is how the "early | birds" follow strong drink. When 1 , was a "cub" learning tny trade I used to paBs the hotel every morniDg. In j one end of the cellar was the bar, and i in the other end the barber shop. There was a door between. It was remarkable how many citizens got a ' shave before breakfast Yet every one of them, when young fellows like you, j could "take a drink or let it alone." i They would have laughed had .you sug- j gested they would ever stand shivering on a frosty morning waiting for the ! barkeep to get up. The morning thirst means the serpent has struck. Only one cure for snake bite. John 3 : 14- IS UP TO DATE 2600 YEARS AGO. 12: "The harp and the flute, the tarbet and the pipe and the wine are in their feasts." This was written 2600years ago. It really was. Mr. Rum is always the same old Mr. Rum. In Noah's day, in Isaiah's and in yours. This full orchestra and the champagne is what you have when you go in. When you come out it is the noise of curses and— well, nobody knows what it is; they call it whisky. You don't need cut glass, bright river. crisp linen and -flowers when you have a full grown appetite. Corn bread and bacon on a log. Up on the Boulevaid. in the .Palm rooms t

under tbe crystal is where the music J sweetly calls, "eat, drink and !be for the Thirst is l*>rn !" Down groggeries have no music, don't J need any. the Thirst is full grown. Gzerge. I heard you were up atthe New Onyx- Mahogany last night, with some lively fellows. "Oh, I Just went ] to hear the music " Well, they have t there expreoslv for fallsws like you. 1 The bar pays for it. Don't be a fool. J 12: 16; Ps. 107: 17 19. THE JUNE BUG. 18 : ' 'They have no knowledge. " What do you call a person who has no . knowledge. A4jpol, an icnoramus, an : idiot I wantfcl under this, verse, adjectives to qualify the fool who , this day of countless warnings permit* himself to be trapped by -the devil with drink bait. So 1 took down my Rabelau. In chapte' 33 there are ' listed three pages of fools. Two hundred : and forty-one kinds- of fools, all nicely tabulated. Here are -some I have se- ' lected: Nestling, Nindy and Youngling fools; Flitty, Giddy and Unsteady , fools; Cup-shotten and Swilling fools; Swollen and Puffed up fools; Wre ched and Heartless fools, Beetle- headed fools When I struck this 'last one I thought of the June, bug which flies headlong into the lamp and drops quivering on my paper. Who likes a drunken man? Who wants a drunken ^ one? One ofjour hotel keepers advertised for • man to drive an old cow hack and forth to pasture. His advertisement wound up "sober man only." Th it advertisement mads one of his best customers a teetotaler. It started him 'thinking. Said he: "Mr. Ridgway, i the drunkard maker wouldn't trust his choicest product to drive his « Id cow." WHITHER? j 14: "Hell hath enlarged herself." 1/ When 1 was a boy this verse used to . make cie shudder when my Sue day School teacher would read it in an awe full I voice. I made up my mind she would not have to stretch herself and crack her jaws for me. I wasn't going there. It is ^something awful how I men are rushing into tbe mouth of nell j through strong drink. Hotel proper- j ties all over the land increac* in value as no other property. Without a bar j they don't pay. A hotel property here I in this town increased fiom $20, 000 to $155,000 in a few years. We can not , build our jails and asylums big enough : nor fast enough. The hordes of Europe j are pouring in on us and all they know is hard work and drink. Last Sunday some of these ^foreigners dedicated a i church to'the worship of God with four | brass bands and something less than a | carload of drink. They have not had | time to leam any better. Their i leaders are like the leaders of Israel j Isiah tells about, and they will drag | themselves and us into .the gaping i mouth of hell unless we turn the gospel ; of Christ in on them. N ah. 1 : 10. WHY? 15: "The mean man is bowed down— the great man is humbled." Rum is no respecter of persons— or i - anything else. The ignorant "Hunkie" , 7 who reels home from the groggery to 1 ' beat hi; wife and turn bis children out ! of doors and the "fir.e gentleman" who ! is driven. home in a cab and put to bed j 1 by bis servauts are both under «he ' same doom, both lost men. [(1 Cor. 6: ' 10). They can both', be saved in the ! same way. Read "Down in Water Street," by Hadley, and see bow the mean man and tbe great man wallowing together in Rum's gutter can be lifted up and made gentlemen by the blood of Jesus Christ, lu the station ; houses, refuges, lodging houses, lum- ' ber yards and kennels of all the large j cities can be found the wrecks of fine i gentlemen, n<A)le hearted, gifted men. Once bright Sunday school boys like i I you. Why? The first glass. P | THE RUM SELLERS VERSE, yj 32: "That justify the wicked for ) reward." r | Five hundred dollars is the "reward" n in Pennsylvania. This noble old Key8 i stone State, with church spires stick8 I ing up from all the villages that dot I its sun-kissed acres. Think of it. T ! What is the bribe or reward in your I State? Note the Bible .calls the rum d sclier "The Wicked. " And this from n Habakkuk 2 : 15,16: "Woe unto him ^ j that giveth his neighbor^drink, to thee - | that pourest thy poison and makest " | him druaken alsi that ' thou mayest 1 , look on their nakedness ! Thou art 1 filled with shame and not glory : drink • j tbou also. The cup of Jehovah's right I hand shall come round unto thee aod i toul shame. shall be upon thy glory." S | Phew ! Who would be a rumseller and e I have a curse like that banging over * him. A newspaper friend has lnvesT tigated the firpsh of some thirty rum 5 sellers in and around this littje town of Coatesville, and the prophecy has worked out true. Test it in your own n ncighboi hoood. e PHILADELPHIA COMMENDS CAPE MAY "I always take home with me one ' suit of clothing, and -en eilra pair of u trousers made to order by _ Van Kessel, e every season I come to Cape May, said | a prominent Philadelphia business man 1 ' recently.

Many automobiles pass through our - village since the building of the new road to the county seat. Fish are still biting in the Delaware Bay but more are being caught byMrs. Ada Coombs was a recent visitor at Dennisville. Charles Corson makes his regular trips to the county seat. Thousands of tons of tomatoes are daily carried to the Stevens factory at the Reading station. Every year the number of acreage increases. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Creamer were recently visiting friends at Dennisville. Miss Carrie T. Coombs was calling on friends at Court House last week. Miss Lillian^S wain was a visitor here during the week. The high tides are driving thousands of mud hens and other, meadow birds into^the higher ^meadows, and gunners are having great sport on the main road at Nancv's Bridge over Bidwell Creek and killing them as they fly j over. Mud liens are very numerous along the Bay Shore this year and the tall grass affords them excellent shelter except during the high tides wheu they are driven into the higher meadows at the head of the creeks. There are also many birds.along the seashore back of the Five and the Seven Mile Beaches. Last week E. Stewart apd H. Null killed fifty bird- during the high tide. BOW TO GET STRONG I P. J.
