To preaeh a sermon ':O the whole book of Proverbs may be a diilirult 1 task. but I sltall attempt it 4 his morn ing; in order that. if for no ot'r rea son. I mvay impress upon you the imi portance of reading the wlcie book at a sittinc. If we should read a part of a friend's letter and another part to-morrow, and another part the next day. we should have at the close a very confused no tion of what he had written to us. The method which many have of reading the Bible by piecemeal may impart im portant instruction, but it does not give us the setting of the books nor a view of the Bible as a whole. Readers of fiction think little of sit ting up late at night that they may finish a thrilling story. If the lovers of God's Word would spend the sane time reading it consecutively they would find it more thrilling than any book of fiction. To a superficial observer, reading the book of Proverbs may be like reading the dictionary. The sub.ject changes so often. And yet there is a plan in the book which a closer study shows to be an orderly arrange ment. The first nine verses are the preface. In which we have the use of proverbs. 1 They enable us to "know wisdom and I instruction, to perceive the words of unde~standing, to give subtlety to the simple. to the young man knowledge and discretion." If he hears and I heedis then they will be an ornament i of grace unto his head and chains ab.ut his neck. Each proverb is a t jewel of wisdom more precious than 1 rubies. From the tenth to the nineteenth ( verses there is described the socialism I of sin, and the young man is warned I against it. "My son, if sinners entice I thee, consent thou not." If they say. c "Cast in thy lot among us, let us all have one purse." "Walk not thou in 1 the way with them: refrain thy feet I from their path: for their feet run < evil, and make haste to shed blood." ( The social element in sin is one of its I most dangerous features. The habit of social drinking has made many a t drunkard. The social nature carries C the young man to the saloon, the pool I room. the gambling den, and entices 1 him to destruction. Men and women go in flocks like sheep to the slaughter, f and, when one tries to escape. the so- T cial nature becomes a lasso with which Satan drags his victim to the slaugh- ( ter pen. It is so hard to tear away from congenial company. The social i club has wrecked many a Christian t for time and eternity. Watch, there- I fore, against the socialism of sin. I When sensualists say, "Cast in thy t lot among us, let us all have one i purse," go the other way. Such a < community of goods means a federa- < tion of death, which sooner or later t will lead to destruction. Beginning with the twentieth verse c of the first chapter there is revealed t to us the mission of wisdom. Many t expositors believe that wisdom hereI refers to Christ. as Hie "is made wis- t dom for us." And He is certainly the incarnation of wisdom. But the sim- t plest and most natural definition oft wisdomn. as it 'eems to us. is common I sense. Common sense crieth without,r she uttereth her voice in the street:I she crieth in the chief place of con- i course, in the openings of the gates. W\herever a man goes his common r eneppals to him to fear God and If he refuses he will sooner or later I see his mistake, and the Comnmoa Sense tha caledupon him will laugh att his discomfiture: "Because I havet called, arnd ye refused: 1 have stretched x out my hand, and no man regarded; t hut ye have set at naught all my coun sei, I wili also laugh at your calamity, I I will mock when your fear cometh." I do not believe that God in this pass-~ ' age is represented as laughing at the a calamity or mocking at the fear of any one. Our Common Sense laughs at us T and moc.ts us wh?~n distress and an guish come upon us. We saw what we ought to have done and did it not. We appreciate opportu.nities lost, nevert to return, and in such a condition we a call upon our Common Sense, but get no s answver, for it has no remedy to supply. ( We seek the resources of wisdom, but' e we cannot find them, for that we hated c knowledge and did not choose the fear 1 of the Lord. "Therefore they shall eat i of the fruit of their own way and be c filled with devices." The mission of t wisdom calling to us from every quar ter, is to lead us to do right, to trustc God and walk In His ways, and if r we fail to hear this voice and heed its , counsels there will conme a. time when e this very wisdom will be our greatest distress. The first eighteen verses of the third chapter establish the fact that godli ness pays. even thoaugh chastisements come with it. And this chapter fur nishes a motto which every Christian< ought to adopt as the rule of his life: "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine Own under standing. In all thy ways acknowledge I IHim, and He shall diret thy paths.r lie not wise in thine own eyes: fear the L'ord andl depart from evi!. It shall be I henh2h to thy navel. and marrow to thy ones. Honor thte Lord with thy sub stance, and with the first fruits oif all thir.e inecase: so shall thy harns be tilled with plenty. and thy prtesCss shaill burst otnt w'ih niew wine.' rTe man who., trvsi is iln the Le:rd. with ent ire lack of confiiden'ce in him self.

W ith this fouir-fold ntroduction as to te use of proverbs, the seeic.lism oft sin, the mission of v;isdom, and the t rw aid of godliness, we now come to a'1 cassifitioni of the proverbs. It is not eha'ustive. but I think it will be suw etive and enable us to finish the classification as we carefully read the book. The application of the Proverbs of Solomon to the fanmily life will make a perfect home. "HIe that spar'eth the rod hateth his son, but he that lovetht him chasteneth him betimes." Modern sentimentalists pronounce this old1 fngyish, andl inveigh against its cruelty, I but you will notice that the homes in $ wh.k diediemncen he. eonme aceo !iated with punishment. a nd disobe ience with reward. send forth into the vorld the i:anliest sons and most ro (nl-y daughters. To rcfuse to ad l:iiter loviln'- ,h:stisement to a ']hl1d to tra:i him in a life of disohedien(c hat will unfit him for citizenship in he Slato or usefulness in the church.

Love ean administer -haiis-nt w-th regret and tears, mt it mu.,c not shrink from The duty. --ep 11hy heart with all dililence. or out of it are the issues of life." Th:> )roverb expresses the teaching of Jesus lhrist. The heart is the source of good >r evi!, and if the heart is right the ife will be right. Let Jesus Christ uliy occnpy the heart, and you may >e carelets about everything else. Over he archway in the old Tombs prison n New York were the words: "T1he ?vay of transgressors is hard." and very criminal who passed beneath it ieeded no argument to prove its truth. On the walls of every store should be iung the words: "A false weight is ihomination to the Lord. but a just veight Is His delight." Our God he ieves in fair dealing. The man who ,ives good measure pleases Him, and ve need to know that honest:r in trade s as holy a thing as prayer. And when you hear anyone laughing it an oath, a vulgar remark, or a vicked deal, quietly repeat the words: Fools make a mock at sin." The man rho plays with the poisoncus adder is ,vise compared with him who sports aith sin or treats it lightly. If you are tempted to surrender your 'onvictions in order that you may -urther your interests, social or finan 'ial. recall the words: "Buy the truth ld sell it not." They will give stiff iess to your moral backbone and sta:n na to your character. No man can ifford to hold the truth for sale. It is he .aost priceless thing that he can >ossess, and whatever the father of ies may offer him for it, he should ;corn the price with contempt. There are so many of these that ;arely to mention them would take the ine of a sermon. "A merry heart ioeth good lire a medicine." If. there ore. you would save the doctor's bill, e merry in heart, and if you have true eart merriment, let Christ the Lord f joy reign there. L-nk with this lroverb its opposite: "Fe that loveth leasure shall be a poor man." The )leasure-seeking spirit -brings poverty if soul and purse. The man and voman whose sole object In life Is to lave a good time rarely have a merry ieart. Their laughter is hollow, he ,ause their very pleasures have he -ome a burden. "The fear of the Lord rolongeth days." If. therefore, you vish to live to a ripe old age, cultivate he fear of God, which will east out all tiler fear. "He that walketh uprightly valketh surely." The position of sta ility is not in prostrating yourself. or rawling. or creeping after the world's ashion, but in the upright walk of a naiily, conscientious life. The man who has wandered from ,od needs only to hear the words: 'The backslider In heart shall be filled vith his own ways," to realize that hey apply to him. God's way is the ray of light. peace and joy. Our way ithout God Is the way of darkness, prmoil and despair. The backslider rho has turned from God's ways t? his >wn ways is truly to be pitied. When ur hearts seem unprepared and our ongues are not right for service, let is recall the fact that "The preparation f the heart and the answer of the ongue is from the Lord." We will hen give the heart to thle Lord thlat {e may prepare it. anId surrender the ongue to him that he may use it. And then we will experience the ruth of the other proverb. "Wh'loso rsteth in tile Lord, happy is he." And r hours of conscious weakness we will epeat with triumph, "The name of the ord is a strong tower, the righteous unneth into it and is safe." All these proverbs make a mosaic of are beauty. They form the parts of n oratorio, every note ,harmonizing iithl every other note. and filling tile ife with sweetest music. And yet we nay be saved the trouble of committing hem all to memory and remembeCring hem in emergencies, if we will but ealize that Jesus Cnrist, who is the ruth, lives and is with us every day. If we need wisdom, we ask Him anId Ie gives liberally. If we are tempted, ie turn to Him for succor. If we are reak, we rely upon Him for strength, nd after every conflict we can say, Thanks be to God who giveth us the ictory through our Lord Jesus Christ." Prayer a hifghty .Power. There are those who ridicule the Idea at prayer can actually accomplish nything, because they cannot under tand how prayer can either affect od's action or change In any way the urrent of events on earth. Such reas ning is extremely shallow. The wisest aan cannot tell the why or the where ore of some of the commonest facts f natural science; Is it not childish hen for any man to undertake to limit piritual truth by the measure of his apacity to see the reason for it or tIle easonableness of it? Facts are facts hether they agree with any system f logic or not. And the fact that rayer is a mighlty power is attested yabundant anld incontestable facts. Watch For Opportunitics. Watch,. lest those duties of kindly eevoience which God puts in the way .1 all be left unnoticed, unfulfilled. thil each one doubts whether it can 0 11is business to stepl forward and et them.
