PMM ■ SUi imd Wm m!« GOD'S HOUSE. Verse 1 : "I dwell in a house of cedar buj the ark— under curtains." Up in Lancaster county you will see 910,000 barns alongside of $2000 farm bouses, -^.fter this statement you don't need to be told the "Lancaster County Dutch" have the finest agricultural county in the world. Nor that the farmers' nearts are in their business. Nor .that they are a deeply religious people. This little town of Ooatesville— an "iron town"— has eight handsome churches, a $50,000 Y. M. C. A. building, raised $100,000 in a single year for religious purposes. I don't have to tell you that herd prosperity keeps her wing a spread and mill workmen live like princes in houses of their own. (Matt. 6: 38.) The ark was now blessing Oavid's palace as it bad blessed Obed-edom'a cottage. David the statesman saw the fitness of things. A fine house for him meant a finer for God. Tea, George,' God is] honored by the plain Q uaker meeting ; bouse as well as by the elaborate cath- j edral. When tbe Friends built their I ' meeting house they themselves lived ! just as plainly. Plain walls and bare 1 floors— rectangular architecture and hard benches prevailed in both meet- : ng house and home. But who will ' eay the Friends' meeting house is not beautiful and noble in its very aim- 1 picity. I have upon my wajls a painting of "St. Mark's at Venice, and one ; of the old Cain meeting house en- ; shrined among the oaLs up on the hill j . top, and I don't know which is the most beautiful. As all lesson writers [ will tell you to read Ruskin's Seven Lamps, ' ' you had better do it SUOCE8S INSURANCE. j Verse 2: "Do all that is in thy heart | for God is with thee. " Even the beat prophets were not in- i .fallible. Nathan was wrong, see verse 5. That a thing looks good to do ' does not meao it is good to do Here | is where thousands of God's children | get into trouble. They do things that look all right without consulting Him. j , I have a friend wno holds an impor- j tant position in a large corporation. Some time ago another large interest I offered him a greatly increased salary j to come with them and be a head man. It looked like the opportunity of a j life time. "It certainly looks good] . and tempting." said my friend, "and I ' 'want to ask your advice as to what I i baa better do." "I don't know.' You ! , are a good Methodist. Ask God about ' , it and keep asking Don't do a thing ! until He .tells you." I saw bim some r time afterward. "Well?" said 1,1; "Oh," said he, with a look full of j meaning, ' ' I have decided to stay | -where I am. " A little while .ago the j arge ibte rest got into financial diffi- j \ cultiea and is now (being reorganized with a cutting off of beads ard a par- 1 1 ing down of salaries. Yon can't de- ! 1 pend "on looks, but you can on God. ! Right here is where every Christian | business man can insure his success with no other premium than some hours upon his knees. Ps. 25: 9; Matt 5: 5. NOBODY ASKED YOU. t [.

The yard will show people tbe kind of boys you are to your home. And in the same way we show our love to God when we make our chuft^ies the noble buildings THE COUNTRY BOY. Verse took thee from the pasture.' '(Maxg.) The {Mature is tbe place to jaiae men as .well as sheep. David was a 'pasture boy— and a success. Solomon was ft palace boy— and a failure. Solomon's son was the palace boy of a palace man— and one of the most ig- - nominioas failures of history. When a ^ prominent man dies the local paper { 1 nine times out of ten ^prints, "born and / ' raised on a farm." There is something / in the open sky, the out-of-doors, the J upturn of the brown soil, the music of t ■ the farm yard, the simple living, the ( open handedness, the free heartedness, { the independence of the farm life that 4 seems to get into the very souls of , boys to make them MEN. In tbe J countryside we find the begt church v life. The pastor is truly the shepherd \ of- the flock. The social life swings { around the meeting house. Neighbors / are oeighDors and the milk of human , kindness is not served inpatentbottles. ' God does not want David to forget he " is a country boy with all the country j boy's blessings. Nor you. Christ was a country boy and looked like a farmer. ' f John 20 : 15. OUR DAY. s Verse 11: "When thy days are . i filled." i When thy days are filled full, the call . r will come and you will be gone— where? - What will 'your 25,000 more or less t r days b& flfilled full of as you cross the , r bar? I know some men who will carry t r every day the cutsea of broken hearted , r women, mothers and wives, and the ^ t tears of children. Some men will not , , have in their whole burden of days a } ; single one in which can be found a ' j t kind thought, a generous deed or a L - noble action.' Oh, the awful load of ' - the filled full days ! David's days were ! ^ f not all filled foil of good— neither are ] 1 t yours and mine. That is why we have ( t to have an Intercessor when we come 1 } . before the Ancient of Days. Dan. j f 7 : 9-10. j , r FATHER-MOTHER. 1 , I Verse 14 : "I will be his father and , 1 c ( be shall be my son." I i ' God promises great things to David's t J i children for their father's'sake. Ful • j ( J, filled in Ohriat. (Heb. 1:5). If you | j will refer to the parallel account in 2 , 1 Sam. 1 : 14 you will find punishment is ' t * j prfcnised if they are not good. Men j ' despise a moral system which has no , f 1 punishment. JWben I was a boy we had | t i little respect for the teacher who tried ' to rule by keeping us in after school < ' and "talking to«a." She was always I ' ; a failure if she bad any real boys in ] the school. The real boy today when ' ' be "goes and does it" expects the.' I "dressing out" and has small respect £ ' for the powers that be if be does not t i get "all that is coming to nim." Dr. , Goss says, "In the father with the c ' | brush in his hand the boy beholds the £ whole moral government incamatp in 1 that single human personality." He < ' j is going to get it aud get it hard. But i ' mother comes in— puts out her hand — 'j "father, don't"— the brush is stayed. 1 Well, that is Christ for you. Rom. 8 :34 ; Heb. 7:25.
