The Book says something (farm like, too, about Bowing and reaping, (Gal. 6: 7). . Th. crown prince out — David's his ) father The whole narrative from the . . thirteenth chapter is a sorry story. t Who says the Bible encourages polygany? David's weakness in dealing With his family is surprising. Yet lots v of Smart men are inviting heartbreak n the same way. To win'reverence and respect— yes, and love, let the boys "have It" when they expeot it. , . You know how it was when you were j .a boy (Prov. 29: 17.) Don't' fail to read the thirteenth and fourteenth chapters, noting the wonderful Bkill of the story teller and the force and bteuty of good old Seventeen"' century English. the boy.

? (chariot, was in very truth a "high ' roller." Compare this with the way David was raised. Little tragedies j like this we Le studying are being ^ | played in almost every town all over ! the world. Plain ; parents and splurgy sons. Poor boys who have won success forget their'own boys don't have their advantages. For many years the Camerons, father and son. were the political leaders of Pennsylvania. Some one j in the presence of Simon Cameron, the j father, was criticizing his son, Don. "Don't be too hard on Don," said the 2 general, "he did not have my advan- ' tages. ' ' "What advantages were they. General?" "The advantages of starting poor, " he replied. The rich man must take extra pains. His boy does not have poverty to hold him level. If e your boy goes to the bad it is your fault. Von have been too busy to ' keep your eye and your heart and . oor ' life on your boy. A boy is an imita 8 tor. He starts in life as his father's "trailer" and if be is ever sidetracked * to his ruin ' the father will do the uncoupling, and throw'the switch. This 1 is the strongest earthly reason I can urge why every father should be a Christian gentleman. For the boy's e sake. For your name's sak.e For your country's sake. For your own * sake. Deut. 6 : 4-7. I POLITICIAN'S, h Verse 4: "Oh, that I were made f Judge." d Or governor, or congressman, or - sheriff, or councilman, or anything else to be had from the dear people. Who can't pick the two most charming and affable men in the land? What a a season of handshaking and baby kissing it has been. If it is important to ^ be affable and pleasant to Win votes, d why not be that way all the time. If - it is a good thing to show interest in | fellow men and to be brotherly in a I Presidential year, pray why uot in all ] years? The human race is just hungry - foijthat sort of thing. {Absalom and j all later politicians, know how to . make friends. If it is a good thing to 1 be polite and modest and deferent in 1 applying for the position, why not ' practice tne same graces by winning customers and advancing in the posi- , tion? Note what God Isays in 1 Peter i 3:8, both versions and margin. But ; beware the Absaloms. Don't let them i make tools and fools of you. They are I large' on the promise but small on the J performance. The company is launched and— the promoter rides in the auto- . mobile! The strike Is called. The I cupboard soon goes bare. But salaries , at headquarters go right on. There is r just One who nas your welfare at heart J I both before and after "election." .' He neyer flatters nor betrays. His ' name is Emanuel. | Listen to Him ; he is your friend. John 15 : lo. \ HELL'S GAME. 1 Verse 6: "So Absalom stole the | | hearts of the men of Israel." Heart stealing is the national fgame * of hell. Ever since Eden the devil;has t been stealing the hearts of .men from j God. His followers play the heart I stealing game to the crack of the pistol and the splash of the luicide. The tally is kept in blood. Do you remem- ! ber bow David won tne hearts of Israel i by Us splendid service? Absalom, r with all- bis manly beaniy, fine raimr ent, polished manners and gracious I words was only a bell-tutored con- | temptible heart thief, after all. Did yen ever have any one steal your Job? y d

Steal your customers? Not," take tbem from you in open fight where the beat man wins. But ic secret, by Be and insinuation and- false promises. If so you know Absalom. A young man opened a dry goods stow in Sometown. He was an expert window dressu and was prospering wbenjBQme competitors started vile stories shout him to steal his women customers. .His trade left him at onoe and he went down in ruin. Colonel John Navanod, driving along the street with a pair of his splendid ' trotters, noticed him dejectedly (walking along ftbe sidewalk and asked him to get [in end tide. "What! Colooel, do you ask me to ride? You know the stories piteg tell about me. " "Come, oome. Jump in and well take a spin out to my farm," replied the Colonel. "And do you icnow," said the Colooel, in telling me the story, "that young man was on his way to blow his briains [out. I told him I did not belieTe a word of the stories. Taking a pistol from his pocket, be threw it into a pond we were passing, and burst into tears. That man is now warning a salary of $20,000 a year in New York City. I stopped to see him the other day when I was in New York, and as be ahowea me through "B« splendid home, he said: - "Colonel Navanod, I owe this all to you ; for picking ma up that day and giving me the good ward." I started to 'tell this story to illustrate the hellishneas of heart stealing, but I find it illustrates some other things a great deal better. Piov. 12: 25, 15: 23, 25: 11 and 19: 22. HYPOCBITES. Verse 8: "I will sarve (worship marg.) Jehovah." Stole hearts and then stole" the livery of heaven to hide his rascality. There are others. Absalom was "traveling _ on' his religion." Real religion is such an excel lent thing on which to book passage that many of those who "have * no use for it," use it Nobody imitates 's shoddy or counterfeits lead quarters. K Beech is stained to look like mahogany. Oast iron masquerades as bronze, y and bits of glass glitter "like gems. 18 Yet we prize all the more our wool, 1 sliver, bronze and diamonds. The !" highest testimony ever paid to the gen- '* uioeness of s good thing is the multitude of imitations. An Absalom can e fool the people, he can fool a David, but he can't fool God. Keep your eye 6 on the sequel. Some people are great- '* ly exercised about "hypocrites In the '• church." Jesus was also and perhaps yon would like to read what he sa's in n Matt. 23 : 27-28, and 24: 51. I am 18 sorry for the hypocrite hater who is not saved, for of such is the kingdom r of Satan, companions for eternity.
