Then, too, t.l>e true rontons llf<j such as has been revealed unto u# in Jesus Christ Is ethically Influen tial.

Moses. A simple man and woman marry. And from that Inconspicuous union the leader of a mighty people und the leader of a soclul epoch np pearu. Tho mighty men of God have <iulto generally and uqually remark ably been tho children of humblo homes and of simple parentage, it Is unnecessary to mention names; they are familiar to us all. In the light of these verses every marriage is fraught with, everlasting possibili ties. And Just bacausc in our own homes perhaps we Hjay unwittingly and unconsciously botrearing the fu ture lender of a ' nation It behooves us u/ider God to iodV carefulLy to the teaching and the training of our youth. The mother love of the humble soul who gave the breath of life from God to Moses was as loyal and as faithful as any that wo may suggest. She eouid not see her child slaugh tered, beautiful baby that ho was, and isO trusting in the compassion of womanhood she floated her child into tho presence of the princess of the Empire. Somehow or other wo are im pressed with the tact that, this simple woman must have been supremely conscious of the providence of God. And her confidence wan rewarded, llw intuitions were correct. The mother in the prlnoOss wont out to the lonely little waif in his little float ing ark. J.Jy tho most, fortuitous of circumstances Muses is returned to th; custody of iiia mother before be ing taken to the paiace to live among the princes. if is after Moses enter.? into tho Inner life *>f the palace that our in terest in his character deepens.

The second act recorded of the man after his life of ease in tlm palace of ,1'iiaraoh is equally indicative of the t"inperaiwnt, a n! more indicative of the philosophical insight of the man. Jt was also the means to the reveal ing of the densc.noos of the very peo ple whom ho wished to rescue from affliction. IIif. admonishment of tho two tffchling toi 1 M-d shows us his wis dom. Their answer, which drove Moses in four into a distant region in escape the Icing, reveals tho lack I of insight of these men whom he wished to aid.
