Department, The Moody Bible 7nstltute
of Chicago.)
LESSON FOR MAY 5.
POVERTY AND RICHES.
LESflON* TEXT-Lk. ?:20-2? and 1?:1?-S1.
GOLDEN TEXT?"A man'a life conaleteth
not in the abundance of the things
he poaseaseth."?Luke 1J.15.
Last week we were studying the fundamental
principles of this new kingdom
Jesus came to establish. Today
our study presents another of his
seeming paradoxes, viz., the blessedness
or the happiness of poverty, hunger
and persecution. Spoken primarily
to the twelve. Jesus Intended these
words for all the people?present and
prospective. Jesus Is distinctly the
nnnr man's friend He knew the mean
lng of hunger and tbrlst, of weeping
and mourning, and so contrasts the
i Joy that shall be to these "happy ones"
> with the "woe" that shall come to
those who from out of their Joy and
their abundance fall to respond to the
needs of mankind.
What It Is and Why.
The last half of the lesson Is Intended
to illustrate the teachings of the
first. Let us look at the illustration.
"A certain rich man." He was not
of sufficient lmportahce even to mention
his name. How few rich men ever
i succeed in really perpetuating their
i names. Not one succeeds in any measure
at all except as in Borne manner
be emulates the life and teachings of
Jesus. How few monuments really
perpetuate names. Character alone is
what lives. This rich man, however,
did not lose out simply because he was
a rich man. Verse 25 tells us why he
was In anguish. His life hud been that
of a selfish seeker and he had had
hit, reward Now conditions have
changed. Once clothed in purple and
faring sumptuously, now he is the
beggar. Ignoring the cry of need at
his gate now he is compelled to make
his cry afar ofT.
"A certain beggar named Lazarus."
It Is better to be a beggar vainly
seeking a few crumbs and to rest in
Abraham's bosom than to live in luxurious
ease, ignoring the cry of the
needy and to live in hell hereafter.
Lazarus did not gain glory hereafter
because he was a beggar, but rather
horansn of his character. Angels an
nounced the coming of the Son of
Man, angels welcomed the returning
: of this eon of mankind. Which of the
twain, Dives or Lazarus, really enjoyed
life? Eternity is a long time, It begins
where imagination ends The name
j Lazarus really means "Gad-helps" and
! God always does help the poor.
Lazarus had some friends for we
read that the dogs showed their sym!
pathy. It is always true that those
! poor as poverty are most ready to re'
spond to the cry of need, and out of
their penury will give the most abun- j
dantly to relieve distress.
Leaves All Behind.
"The rich man died also." Thus
ended his life of ease and luxury for .
: shrouds have no pockets. "How much !
did he leave? He left it all." All of
his loved ones, all of his hopes were !
left behind. There is something appallingly
sad in the death of a rich
man who trusts only to his wealth, 1
having no faith in God. Millions for a
moment of time. The sarcasm of
Jesu3' words is quite apparent, "and
he was burled." Only a clod of earth.
, no longer useful, of the earth, earthy,
| bury him, get him out of sight. But
did this end all? By no means,
I for when he reached the other side
j he did not lose consciousness nor
reason. No soul sleeping there. He
i 1 saw, he observed, he felt, he remembered,
he reasoned. Back upon earth
i j he had brothers who were following
his same mode of life. Here he was
suffering, crying for "mercy," for an
alleviating touch of cold water, yet in
, that cry there was no note ui rcpeui- i
ance. He and his brethren had lived
for the tongue and had pampered it. j
now ft, the seat of taste, of bold words, j
etc., is crying for cooling relief. But j
! would those behind repent even if one 1
were to rise from the dead? No, exj
cept that they might escape a like tor- ;
ment. The desires of their hearts |
would be the same. Being out of
state's prison is of itself no particular
honor. The message of Jesus strikes :
deeper than outward forms and cere- I
monies. It is the heart motive whereby
we are to be judged. Dives sought
to excuse or to Justify himself (v. 30), j
but Abraham tells him plainly that
both he and his brethren had had sufdcient
light. If they will not listen to
Moses (the Pentateuch) and to the I
prophets neither will they repent even !
though one care from the dead.
The disciples were poor In both this
world's goods and one of them, Matthew,
adds that the happy ones are
I those who are poor In spirit also. They I
knew the meaning of hunger and of
privation and were ready to learn of
him. Jesus is not so much In this illustration
trying to give tis a picture
of the hereafter, of the future life as j
he is to show the results of our living i
In this present life. He shows us
plainly that there are different states
over there and that these Btates are
the result of our conduct In the life 1
; j we now live. Riches are a temptation,
a temptation to gain "by fraudulent
1 j means and to spend foolishly. Many a
young man is cursed by great riches, !
all honor to those who overcome that
handicap. The temptation for men is
i I to trust to the arm that secures the ,
> ! riches and not to the strong arm of
i | God. "Corporate wealth is the suI
preme peril of America;" so spoke a
' Judge of the Supreme court of the ]
I'nited States. Why Is this so? Be,
J cause It tends to selfishness; it tendB
to the abandonment of faith In God;
to the breaking down of any attempt
to live the golden rule. The strength
of America is not represented by the
dollar mark but It Is In that true altruism
that is to be found only In the
i hearts of those who are poor in spirit.
That great mass of our population
who are not rich In this world's goods
but who are rich in faith nnd love.
, ; The getting of great wealth too often
J Ignores the plain teachings of God's
1 Book. "If riches Increase set not
! your heart upon them; for how hardly
shall they that have great wealth enI
ter the kingdom of heaven." Many of
I ! the poorest of earth, however, are as
i covetous of riches as any of the i
wealthiest can possibly be. God blesses j
! and uses consecrated wealth but its
| responsibility Is a strong test of
Christian character. This lesson does
. not teach the blessedness of nothing.
We may all be millionaires in the bouI
and then will we be blessed and be.
ome a blessing.

One little fellow of rather uncertain

by little acts of kindness, which

Coming up to him one day she
put her arm about his shoulders and
said: "I believe I will kiss you for
being so good to me, but how old are

THE OLD PLEA
He "Didn't Know It Was Loaded."
x 1
The coffee drinker seldom realizes
that coffee contains the drug, caffeine,
a severe poison to the heart and
nerves, causing many forms of disease,
noticeably dyspepsia.
"I was a lover of coffee and used It
for many years, and did not realize the
bad effects I was suffering from Its
use. (Tea Is Just as Injurious as coffee
because It, too, contains caffeine,
the same drug found In coffee.)
"At first I was troubled with Indigestion.
I did not attribute the trouble
to the use of coffee, but thought it
arose from other causes. With these
attacks I had sick headache, nausea
and vomiting. Finally ray stomach
waa in such a condition I could scarcely
retain any food.
"I consulted a physician; was told
all my troubles came from indigestion,
but was not informed what
caused the Indgestion. I kept on with
the coffee, and kept on with the troubles,
too, and my case continued to
grow worse from year to year until It
developed into chronic diarrhea, nausea
and severe attacks of vomiting. I
could keep nothing on my stomach and
became a mere shadow, reduced from
159 to 128 pounds.
"A specialist informed me I had a
very severe case of catarrh of the
Btomach. which had got so bad he
could do nothing for me, and I became
convinced my days were numbered. i
"Then I chanced to see nn article set- j
ting forth the good qualities of Postum |
nnd explaining how coffee injured people
so I concluded to give Postum a
trial. I soon saw the good effects?my
headaches were less frequent, nausea
and vomiting only came on at long in- 1
tervals and I was soon a changed man,
feeling much better.
"Then 1 thought I could stand coffee
again, but as soon as I tried It my old
troubles returned and I again turned
to Postum. Would you believe it, I j
did this three times before I had sense
enough to quit coffee for good and ,
keep on with the Postum. I am now a !
well man with no more headache? sick '
stomach or vomiting, and have already
gained back to 147 pounds."

HOMES J AFRICA
High Standard of Refinement
Exists Among the Dutch.
Boers Are the Backbone of Country?
"Colored Help" Proves to Be
Household Problem ? Abundance
of Work for Men.
Cape Town, Africa.?In South Africa
there are many and varied lntluencea
at work shaping the character
of the country?in Its home life no
less than In a political sense. When
we read and Bpeak of the lack of refinement
exhibited In the homes of the
Boers we must not forget that there
Is another section of the Dutch population
of British South Africa. There
is a very high and very exact Btandard
of refinement In hundreds of old Dutch
families in the Cape peninsula, families
in which the traditions of ages
back are carried out to the letter,
whether they stand for niceties of domestic
life or its warm-hearted hospitalities.
There are four colonies in the union
of South Africa, and each has Its own
characteristics; every nation under
the sun has given Its quota to the people
of those four distinctive countries;
the two dominating races are Just In
the midst of a process of settlement
of the many questions that have vexed
them for the last ten years; and beall
k I a * hAfo la tho crpflt fflCt Of
jjjiju an utin luci c *o o* ?? ?
the problem of white and black. These
are the elements of which the colonist
must form some sort of sympathetic
estimate.
A common objective for all blame Is
the colored servant question, but
many a tired and seasoned South
American housekeeper would not give
up her "colored labor" for any other
that could be supplied In Its place.
The disasters of the system come
from the abuse of It. A great many
of the women who employ black servants
In 8outh Africa have the most
Imperfect way to treat or manage a
servant of any aort.
As to the routine of every day life
in South Africa, there Is not very
much to mark that as being distinct
from the routine anywhere else. Men
work hard; the demands of commercial
life are heavy, and the "slacker"
Is useless; In short, there are many
4
I

Typical South African Home.
men who discover for the first tlmt
when they reach Africa how much
work they are able to do. The ell
mate Is energizing, however, ana
work does not kill.
Not always with perfect Justification,
perhaps, the South African
comes to look on life with a certain
detachment; he does all that he ought
to do, but does It carelessly, as if It
were less than noteworthy. He does
not become flurried; he dines at night
?and takes plenty of time over It?
and he appears to be careless of
money even when he is not really
so. Such an attitude as this brings
much satisfaction, and the man who
has that attitude cannot very well be
charged with vulgarity or with the
error of missing the whole meaning
of life.
TREES CLAIMED BY OCEAN
Fishes Swim Where Once Were Held
the Drills of 9oldiers on the
Island of Panay.
Panay, P. I.?From Fort San Pedro
to the outskirts of Oton, including all
of the beach side of iloilo city, the sea
currents are rapidly washing away
the eand and gravel and allowing the
sea to encroach on the mainland at a
dangerous rate. Old residents tell us
that where the water now reaches
was formerly solid ground; that soldiers
were once drilled where now the
fishes swim.
During the high tides of a few
months since probably a hundred
larzf coeoanut trees were literally
washed tip by the roots on account of
the beach having been gradually
swept away to such an extent that
the waves could beat against them.
These trees had been growing along
the water front for many years and
only fell after they had been undermined
by the constantly encroaching
water.
The property along this beach Is valuable
and should be protected Not
only is it valuable, but some of it
constitutes the most beautiful part of
this city, and for this reason also
should be protected.
We Buggest that steps be taken to
have government engineers look Into
this matter with a view of making
" ecommendations for some kind of
protection against the constant wearing
away of this valuable and beauti
ful part of our city.

HIS SERMON IN A NUTSHELL
Comprehensive and Succinct Report
of What Was Said In the
Funeral Oration.
A popular Irishman, beloved for
Bany a mile around his home town,
died suddenly. He belonged to several
organizations, and the A. O. H.
of Bloomville decided to send a representative
to his funeral.
The church was packed and the
clergyman most sympathetic. In expressing
his certainty of Immortality
he went in for simile.
"We will say," he observed In illustration,
"that here is a beautiful
watch. The case is good and is studded
with diamonds. It looks like the valuable
part of the watch, but you can
remove the works and they will keep
on ticking."
The delegate returned to his home
town and was sounded on the topic of
the funeral sermon.
"Well," he reported, "the father
said that Pat was no Waterbury."
BABY'S TERRIBLE SUFFERING
"When my baby was six months old,
his body was completely covered with
large sores that seemed to Itch and
burn, and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began in pimples which
would open and run. making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell off, and the sores were over
the entire body, causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would come ofT when I removed his
shirt.
"We tried a great many remedies,
but nothing would help him, till a
friend Induced me to try the Cutlcura
Soap and Ointment I used the Cutlcura
Soap and Ointment but a short
time before I could see that he was
; Improving, and In six weeks' time he
, was entirely cured. He had suffered
' about six weeks before we tried the
I Cutlcura Soap and Ointment, although
we had tried several other things, and
doctors, too. I think the Cutlcura Remi
edles will do all that is claimed for
them, and a great deal more."
(Signed) Mrs. Noble Tubman, Dodson,
Mont., Jan. 28, 1911. Although Cutlcura
Soap and Ointment are 60ld by
druggists and dealers everywhere, a
sample of each, with 32-page book,
will be mailed free on application to

Ought to Be Satisfied.
Aunt Beulah's besetting Bin was
housecleaning. She cleaned in season
and out pf season, causing the family
much worry when sweeping
brought on an attack of lumbago or
carrying out ashes gave her the grip.
One day her patient sister protested.
"Why don't you let the maid do
ihnco things'*" she asked.
"She's so careless," groaned Aunt
Beulah; "I'd rather have the pain
than the dust. I'd rather have the
pain."
Then the Smart IJttle Hoy jumped
into the conversation. "Well, you've
| got the pain." he remarked, "what are
j you kicking about?"
