SELLERS, Director of Eve ning Department The Moody lible In stitute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR FEBRUARY 23 ABRAM AND LOT. LESSON TEXT--Gen. 13:1-12. GOLDEN TEXT--The blessing of Je hovah. it maketh :rich: and He addeth no sorrows twrewith."-'rov- 10 - During the time that intervened be tween this and last week's lesson we read of Abram's journey "down into Egypt," a story that is rich with sug gestive typical lessons. Abram's de ceit is discovered by Pharaoh and he is driven from Egypt. Fear is the root of unbelief, and when we fall we are sure to carry some one with us. But a man's sin is sure to be discov ered, so it was that "Pharaoh com manded his men, and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had." Egypt, a type of the world.. turned Abram out (12:20) when he tried the "good Lord good devil" mode of life. Compromise and separation are not compatible. Lesson's Picture. 1. "Up Out of Egypt," vv. 1-5. Again we have presented the lesson of sepa ration. This portion is a great pic ture of repentance. Abram carried with him not only his own possessions but also those of his nephew Lot. No tice. Abram's wealth did not make him acceptable in Egypt. The world desires not alone the wealth of a man, but also the man back of the wealth. Again Abram turns from conflict un to Bethel, the house of God, that place of confession, of consecration, and of encouragement. These returning pilgrims were not ordinary men, no more is the man who is In Christ, and God was already given evidence of the blessing prom ised to Abram (12:2) and of that ma terial blessing so definitely promised to the descendants of Jacob. We read (v. G) "their substance was great." But there is far greater dan ger however in material prosperity than in adversity. This was a greater danzr to Thee ;ilgrims than that of the :; 11n!ws W:h awv1 in the land. ."AdThere W :as Strife," vv . 5-a. The evidene,' m il (::n;r manifest ed itself vwhen it wa:; found that the land could not supp:rt both Abram an Lot (v. 6).

The whole history of Lot is one of selfishness. which inter resu'ted in sorrow and sadness an~d in his being shorn of all of his selfishly acquir-ed prosperity. Lot had no particular claim upon Abram nor have we in our own right, or because of our own merit, upon or be causeof our own merit, upon God. There is so little that divides most of us and so much that we hold in com mon that it is het little short of crim inal to waste our energy upon that which is ephemeral or of slight im portance. What a difference in the choice of Lot and that of Abram. One entered into the path of the wicked. Pror. 4:14, 15. while the other into the path that "shineth more and more unto the perfect day," Prov. 4:1S. IH. "And Lot . . . Beheld All the Plain of Jordan,"T vv. 10-13.

Lot made a willing com promise. a supet ficial choice and came rear losing his own soul. Matt, 1G:2G, 6::.'. lHe deliberately entered into daner when he "pitched his tent to wards Sodom." The believers peril is vorllines-s. Lot's journey (v. 11) led *at last to Sodom v. 12. Abl rm aspired to know God. Lot ha-'d -in amibition to possess the things of time and sense.

Gravley spent Saturday night at A. M. Gravley's. Mrs. Lizzie Bolden, who has been sick for quite awhile, is able to be out again to the de light of her many friends. Mr. J. H. Lollis met with a very painful accident last Tues day, as he was returning from Pickens by catching his leg be tween the wagon brake and a stump in the road. Roark Powell, made a busi ness trip to Greenville, Monday. Mrs. Lens Grayley visited at Mr. L. B. Gravley's Sunday. Mrs. Dock Porter and child ren, spent Sunday with Mrs. A. M. Gravley. The roads are very bad in our section. It is almost impossible for people to go to town or church or anywhere else. There are some places that will almost turn a wagon or buggy over to pass through. Between Powell's store and Hagcod's mill the peo ple have to quit the public road and take to the woods. It is dangerous for women and chil dren to ride over such places. They are in danger of falling out and getting killed. I know two -adies that start ed to visit some neighbors inst week and ithe buggvwhoel ran in a deep hole and pitched one of the ladies out on the wheel and they had to stop before they got" to their neighbor's house, and take out their horse and continue their way afoot. I think the supervisor and county commissioners must be dead. But I haven't seen any account of their death in the paper. They have not been in this sec tion in so long. The doctors have all signed a pledge not to go without the landlord would stand good for the money. If one had to go now he would think he ought to have 21 a mile and 8 per cent on that. Well I guess I had better ,not say any more and give some one else a chance. Farmer's Wife. Notice of Final Settlement and Discharge. Notice is hereby given that I will make application to J. B.

May the Lord take her and keep her until we meet on that happy goldeu shore. She said before she died. that she was ready to go and I hope she is in Heaven to day with Jesus. She leaves two sisters. two sons and one daughter and a host of friends and relatives to mourn her death. She was 74 years old. She is gone but not forgotten. N, R. BRONCHITiS SUFFERER Takes Druggist's Advice With Splendid Result. If anyone should know the worth of a medicine, it is the retail druggist who sells it over his counter every day in the week, and i8 in&8 posi""et to know what remedy gives the best satisfaction. MrB. Frank H. Uline, of West Send Lake, N. Y., says: "For a number of years I was a great sufferer from bronchitis. Last July I had an attack which was more severe than any, and my friends thought I could not recover from it. Then I was advised by my druggist to try Vinol, which I did, with wonelerful results. My cough has left me; I have gained in weight .nd appetite, and I am as strong as ever I was. I advise all who have bronchitis, chronic coughs, or who are run down to try Vinol." It is the combined- action of the medicinal curative elements of the cod's liver, without the greasy oil, aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonio iron that makes Vinol so efficient Remember, we guarantee Vinol to do just what we say -we pay back your money if it does not.
