After all this varied experience Jamb is t]
Pethel once again. It is not much in j,

ending to the Jordan and the western p,

avelers in all the history of the Holy _

pting now and then an eagle or a wild w
oiwtain goat, but to Jacob it wai a ? ?
ed place. There the first niaht of hi* ,i
ght from E*au he ?aw the ladder which ^
iked earth to heaven, the ladder which ^
is thronged with angel* performing their "
fi'-ir.ly ministry, and he heard the voice u

*ak without arousing the trndere?t emo- *
ona and the holiest memories. Mother *'

iw are separated from them by the ?
eary lapse of time, and between those t:
ippv days and our present unsatisfactory K'
:perience days, weeks, months and even
?ars strctch out. we say it to our shame. ,
ir some of us an nctive business life ha* 1
prated us from Bethel, and yet this is Cl
>?ilively unnecessary. "Not slothful in u
Miners, fervent in spirit, serving the *
ord," and if there is anything in vour ?
isinexs that dampen* your spiritual ar- M
;r. or blinds your viiiion of Christ, either *
:ur business is wrong or you are wrong [*,

With some a foreign residence lies be- a
reen us and Bethel. Back in the old a
untrv we were most fait'iful and devoted u
i Chriat and constantly serving the .
lurch, but in this free land we have for- '
>tten our vows, we havo made the fatal ?'
i?take of leaving God out of our calcula- '*
jn?. and somehow seem to forget the *
ords of the Psalmist, "If I take the wings 1

Some preliminary steps. Before we mny w
er expect to go bark to the place of
essing it will be necessary lor us to obrve
tne instructions which Jacob gave "
i his household. '
First, "i'ut away the strange gods." that "
, literally, "the (Jod of the strangers." "
bev have been living with the enemies of ri
od's people, and little by little the cod? j1
these people had gotten possession of "
icm. They were taken into their tent* "
id then into their hearts. and they were u
:t of fellowship with (Jod. Wherever t*
icre i? a ftingiM growth in the forests al
iere is corruption and decay, wherever
icre is :w idol in the heart there is a
esh indication of weakness, and we canit
hide our idols; they refuse to be hid- <
n. When we least expect it there is a >1
surrection. hi
What is an idol? It may be a very little H
linjr. That wbi?h tend* to usurp an onje
place in our affection*. which five* u*
lore nleatmre than the thought of God. i*
1 idol. The thing in our life which make*
* *acrilice nearne** to God, which may
Dt nerefi??arilv he fcinful, only questionable,
an idol. That which make u* indifferit
to spiritual advantage* and indifferent
> Bethel is an idol. Your reputation,
r>ur fortune, that unworthv friend upon
horn you !avi?h your affection, tlese may
e idol*, for "no man can serve two mas rs,
for either he will hate the one and
>ve the other, or will cleave to the one
ad depart from the other." Therefore
lit away the strange cods, and if we reallv
ant to he near to God how easy it will
e to find out the thins that hinder* u*,
r?d yet as a matter of fact who can put
T cannot. I jon sure, bnt
iere ia a deliverance. Do you remember
le story of David and Nathan, when Daid
forgets that he is a king and a father
nd ?in*. and Nathan is the messenger of
od who comes to rebuke him with the
inching story of the ewe lamb. When
' J 1 L!. ein
MVIfl ICXnovil'UlirK ? nu
iately respond*. "The Lord also hath put
srny thv sin," and there is in this ezpreson
a reference to the scapegoat of the
''d Testament on the dav of Atonement;
hen the priest confessed the sins of the
pople. and the goat was represented at
aggering away under the load of Israel's
ns. down through the valley, up the
muntain ronder until he is lost to sight,
nd then finally, according to tradition i?
uahed over into the abyss where no man
i. He can nut away our sins on whom
i" Lord hath laid our iniquity.
Second, be clean. This refers to inner
TchirK ! nnlr brought about by
he indwelling of Chri*t. Ood put* away
ur Kin*, it ia true. when He forgive* u*,
ut it i* one thin? to he *et right concern12
the jpiilt of *in and anite another thing
> he *et free from the pollution of *in. Thil
>cond privilege is our* when Cbrint come*
i to dwell with u?. We are very much
fraid of the word "holine**." in preachjg
and teaching, yet we have m much of
olincaa a* we have of Chri*t, no more or
o ie?*. Let u* be clean in heart. Thi? is
OMihle hv the word of God which ia
!enn*ing in it* very touch. Let u* be
'can in what we *av, making a covenant
'ith Christ to (ruard oar lip*, asking Him
? keep our eve*. Let u* not do the things
bat wil grieve the *Dirit. remembering
Cod can on'v u*e that which i* clean.
Third, let u* change our garment*. Thia
iu*t refer to the outward practice* of our
* J- m.t U
ic; in omer worm, um u>ui>p. ?n.
ie garment we are wearing to-day? With
>me of us it i? .1 robe of our own wearing,
le rota of selfishness and pride, and mark
011 thin, where self come* into a life Christ
awe* out. There is another robe which
'0 mar w?ar to-day woven in the loom of
*>a'-cn hearing the red mark of the blood
f Christ.
Do you remember the story of the father
f the prodigal, where the boj* returned
om his wanderings clad in rags, and the
ither paid to his servant. "Bring forth the
e.it robe and put it on him." I nsed to
(link that it was a robe beautifully emroidertd.
but not so. One of our best
Ireek scholars has said it means, *'Brinp
>rth the same old robe he used to wear
.id put it on him: the robe he wore whea
e was as my son, living up to the priviljes
of hi? position, so that he may know
bat he is restored again." and this is what
e need to have nut around us. the robe
e wore at Bethel when we walked in fel
iwship with God and had a vision 01
'hrist.
In Ephesians Paul says. "Put off the o'd
lan. put on the new man." and tbm te!!?
s to "Keep putting away sin.'4 This is
,S; position for us to-day. Oh. that we
light cnanee our garments. In the 22d
bapter of Matthew and the 11th verse,
hen the kin^ came into the wedding feast
1 rebuked the man without a wedding
arment. He who had been rebtiked was
peechles*. How can we stand before Him
'ithout the robe of His righteousneos.
Never until Jacob came back to the
lace where he had slept with the pillow
f stones underneath his head, to the very
pot whcr?? he had seen God. d:d he retire
hlesshi?. And it is interesting to
ote in the Gth ver*e that when he came
is family came with him. As the head of
he box se goes the family will usually go.
I traveled the other day with a missionry
from Wisconsin, who told me how he
reached a drunken man in the wood*
f Wisconsin, told him the story cf Christ
nd wop him. and later had the joy of retiving
the man and the six members of

Results. Tn the Sth verse we read that
he people were afraid of Jacob and hi?
ompany, for the terror of the Lord waa
pon them. Matthew Henry has Mid that
hen sin was in .Tacob'a house he waa
fraid of his neighbor*, but when the
lols were put away his neighbors were
fraid of him. When shall we le*rn the
'sson that we have power over men by
be way of God. The world doe* not fear
worldly Christian, nor doe* the devil,
nd we need expect no tnumoh over men
ntil we have orevailed with God fin>t.
Second. God appeared and talked with I
acob. This we read in verses nine and
en. Of cour** no man can see God as He
i and live. Moses asked this of God and
fe said. "I will put thee in the cleft of
he rock and cover thee with Mv hand
hile I pass by." and he saw the clory of
he garments of God and Hi? face did
bine, but we can see Christ, and when we
ehold Him in His tenderness with little
hildren and His ministering to the sick
nd suffe'inc everywhere we hear Him
iy. 'He tlint hath seen Me hath seen My
'atber also." God still speaka to us; if
re did but have our ears open we should

er as a boy out in the country putting I

We would caution all people against accepting
substitutes for Peruna. Insist upon
having Peruna. There i* no other internal
remedy for catarrh that will take the
place of I'eruna. Allow no one to persuade
you to the contrary.
If you do not derive prompt and satiafactory
results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and be will be
pleased to give you his valuable advice

to be found in many drug store*. The**

I was troubled with pains in my
