The text Is I Corinthians x, 13, ‘‘There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man.” The scientists teach us that an thropology, or the science of man.

Nature has the same method of working in all, and if we learn what she does in the lower spheres we shall know what she does In the higher. If we learn how the plants and Ihc animals £;row and thrive, we may infer that In a similar way man will grow and thrive. No man is absolutely unique.

Mrg M. J Price, Executrx estate Hugh Moore, de- eca^ed. Pub. in Gaffnev Ledger Mch. 22. 29 and April 5 12, 19C7. Companies represented at JONES J. DARBY, Agency My friends, as there are thousands of men and women in the past who have been tempted just as we are tempted and God has found a way by which they may escape from tbeir tempta tions. so if we let Jesus come into our lives and accept his offer of a way of escape we p ay overcome our present temptations. We all have many temp tations. There is no doubt about that. The next question is. Do we apply the gospel weapon against those tempta tions'' There are. In the first place, physical temptations. There are temptations of the blood, of the nerves, the muscles of the stomach and of the heart There are the temptations which appeal to the physical organism which we have Inherited from our ancestors and which may have been weakened by disease or by abuse. These temptations of the physical organls’D are among the very fiercest of al! temptations to battle against. Paul was speaking literally as well as figuratively when be de scribed himself as an armed sentinel standing guard over his body or as an armed foe in mortal combat with the passions of his flesh. He knew, as every true Christian ought to know, that unless he was continually warring against the evil desires of his flesh he would become their slave. He said. “I keep under my i>ody and bring It into subjection lest by any means when I have preached to others I myself should be a castaway.” Oh. my brother, do you know that with the help of the Holy Spirit you may overcome your physical temptations? One of the most common of those physical temptations Is the craving o the stomach and the nerves for a stim ulant or a soothing narcotic. You are not a lazy, good for nothing drunken loafer. You are an Intense, ambitious energetic man. You perhaps started with nothing, and everything, to use a slang expression, “seems to be com ing your way.” Your business has been going ahead by leaps and strides The orders have been tumbling In on Y o o r B n s i n e s s S o 1 i c i t e d ,2 ■ — ten brains, you could work them all to their limit. The result Is you have been overworking that body. You cannot sleep at night. When you arise for breakfast in the morning you are more tired than when you went to bed. About two years ago you began to use Stimulants. You did it to arouse your depleted faculties. Then at night you commenced to take some sedative. You Mid to yourself: “1 must sleep. I must ■Imp or I shall die.” Then you did not The Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company. Accident Department of Aetna Life Insurance Com pany. North British and Mer cantile Insurance Company.

United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company. fOlETSHONET^IAR Sutm Golds I Prevent* Pneumonia w — 'DeWHt’e Sabo like liquor. You did not in the begin ning crave that sedative. But now ev ery nerve and muscle and sinew of your body Is crying: "Give me drink! Give ire that . oping notion! I must have them or 1 -hall go mad!” Under these temptations of Ihe flesh you are going down aud down. You are head ing straight for a premature gnive Do you not realize now what Paul menus when he says. “1 keep under my body and bring it into subjection lest by any means when I have preached to others I myself shall be a castaway.” Liks a Powder Magazine. Or perhaps we have broken the mor al code. Perhaps we have Inherited the inflamed proclivities of some disso lute ancestor. When we try to govern ourselves, we find that we are like a mettlesome, high strung horse, ready at a moment’s notice to take the hit In his teeth and rush madly away. The cold blooded man of phlegmatic tem perament cannot understand why the quick tempered, high strung, nervous, passionate nature can so easily kick over the traces and do what It ought not to do. The phlegmatic man is a mound of wet sand slowly being dried by the rising sun The passionate man is a gunpowder magazine, ready to be exploded by a spark. And yet the power of God can come in and make it possible fora weak man to overcome the temptations of drink and all the unspeakable temptations of the fle^h. Yes. the power of God has been able to beip thousands of men in the past to triumph over the cup and over the morphine habit and over libertinism. The power of God can help you now to triumph over your evil desires of the fle^b. Your temptation is not an extraordinary case. There have been many men of the past even more dis solute than you who l ave been saved from the sins of the flesh. Have you forgotten rani's statement? “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to iron, but God is faith ful who will not suffer you to l>e tempted nltove that ye are aide, but will, with the temptation, also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear It.” But there are mental temptations as well as physical. Just the same as a man may have a malformed body he can have a malformed mind. His thinking apparatus may be ail askew, in Bulgaria a sho 1 time ago there died a young woman of thirty years of age. She had the mind of a matured, devel oped woman. She could talk as a wo man. but she had the body of a little six-months-old baby. She never grew physically after she was a few' months old. She had to sleep in a cradle. She had the mind of a woman, yet the body of a little child. In direct antithe sis to this we often find men of fully matured physical bodies who are worse than children in intellect. Their minds are warped and twisted out of form. They have such malformed in tellects that they cannot think aright. They cannot tell the difference be tween right and wrong. In their own strength they are intellectually color blind. Defective Color Sight. You know what I mean by a man having defective color sight. When the applicant for a locomotive engi neer’s position applies to the railroad, what is the first and the chief rule by which the official tests the applicant? He takes him into a room where there are a lot of worsted yarns all jumbled up together. “Now. you go and pick me out the blue skeins.” says the ex aminer. “Now pick me out the red.” The difference between the colors of red and white n. :y involve the safety of hundreds of passengers which an engineer may have in his charge. Some of you may be surprised to learn that hundreds of would be engineers have been rejected because the optic nerves which connect their eyes aud their brains could not carry their messages aright. Bo there are hundreds and thousands of men whose brains are de formed. They cannot think urigbt. They cannot tell right from wrong when they see it. These men have malformed intellects, just the same as otiiers have malformed bodies. Of course I am here using the brafu in the broad moral sense and not in the nar row. I was never more impressed with this thought than some time ago when I was reading the most marvelous ser mon. I think. Henry Ward Beecher ever preached. It is called “The Cour tesy of Conscience.” In this discourse Mr. Beecher shows how each mau by education us well as by hereditary law becomes uu entity to himself or an individual different from ail other in dividuals. Lacb mau to a great ex tent Judges the world by giving voice to the predominant characteristics of his own heart and mind and life. “Now,” says Mr. Beecher, “take a man of large benevolence. That is the pre dominating quality of bis mind. It overshadows everything else. As be goes through the Bible everything that magnifies the goodness of God and the mercy of God will come after his mag net. Whenever he comes to a fissure where there Is smoke or wrath be Jumps it and will not touch it. while, on the other hand, the mau who has not such benevolence, but has a good deal of the sense of Justice of govern ment and of rules uud regulations, goes through the Bible, and when he returns he has on his back a pack filled with the texts of fire.” A Law Unto Itaalf. Mr. Beecher was showing that ev ery man’s mind Is a law unto Itself. If that mind is a malformed or one sided mind in Its color blindness. It will cover with false colors e\’ery mor al object Its eyes focus. Just the same as the locomotive engineer with color blindness may think the red light of warning Is the white light of safety. Now. the power of the Holy Spirit may come Into our lives and teach as to think aright Through tbs Holy Spirit we can g't a revelation of what the divine sacrifice means. Through him we can truly get an Infinite grasp of what the words “Je us Christ our Saviour” mean to the tr>ubled, sinful heart Oh the s.ns of the mind! Oh, tie awful ro tilts of wrong thinking to the human heart! This mental fog Is like any other kind of darkening mist. If you have ever crossed the Atlantic, you know well what I mean. When you come to the banks of Newfound land the fogs settle about you so thick that you cannot see the prow of the ship from the stern. Then the boat slows up. aud tlie deep throated fog horn begins to call. Every time that hoarse note goes rolling over the wa ters it seems to be calling. “Oh. ships and fishing smacks, where are you?” Then off in the distance you will hoar a faint answer calling: “Here am I! Beware! Beware! Beware!” So In the mental fogs of doubt and mystl- “ism, in the fogs of skepticism which velop every human heart, there is but one right course. Slow up. Send forth thy cry for guidance. Cali and keep calling: “Jesus, where art thou? Jesus, whore art thou?” Then amid the deepest, denses* gloom of life thou wilt hear the Saviour's answer: “Here am I! Come to me! Come to me!” Ob, may the mental fogs which have enveloped so many of us today be lift ed by the sunshine of God’s love. Our mental doubts and skepticism are no wor e tbnn those which have been lift ed from hundreds of beclouded minds. “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common t * man.” Christ you shall by the promises of God be filled with eternal life. \\ hlc’i current v. ill you seek today, the divine current of spiri ual power which comes sira.ght from the throne of God or the cm •cut of evil by which you will be forexor destroxed? in God’s name xx hit b current .xvill you choose?

Once Belas*-) had been for weeks stubbornly contending with an immal- leable third net while the first two were already in rehearsal. “1 have it at lust,” he exclaimed, with a grateful air of relief, as he en tered the theater to conduct the re- heursttis. “NV.v i'ii take two days off and write the dialogue.” Two days to write an act! That Il lustrates how little importance be at taches to the actual process of formu lating expressions. He had taken weeks to construct the skeleton which these words were to clothe. He might rip them into tatters and strip them from his skeleton two or three times more before gaining the effect he had in view, for with true dramatic In stinct he strives to let the action tell the story.—From “How Belasco Stages a Play,” in Bohemian. Temptaticns From Without. But there are temptations from with out as well as temptations from with in. There are temptations which come to us from other men. as well as temp tations welling up in our own hearts. There ere temptations social and com mercial as well as spiritual. The proph et of old described himself as a little terror stricken bird, with a great flock of angry sparrows encircling it trying to peck it to death. Thus, when we see a!i the temptations which swoop down upon us from without, can we not cry out: “Mine heritage is unto me as a speckled bird. The birds about are against her. Come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field come to devour?” For truly wherever we go into the out side world Satan is ready to greet us with fierce temptations. Don’t you remember the old nursery fable where the spider stands at the door of his palace trying to get the fly to come in aud banquet with him? Well, that is the way Satan stands at the door of the commercial and the social world begging his victims to come in and sup with him. He looks at us and smiles and says: “Come, join our social club! Come and learn how to drink wine and to gamble with us! Come and Join our dancing cotillon! Of course many of these entertain ments may conflict with your old fash ioned ideas, but never mind; you can still be a member of the church and be Just like hundreds and thousands of Christians who profess their religion and do not practice It.” Or Satan sends acquaintances, who say. “Come, let us use in wildcat speculations some of the moneys which have been left us In tru^-t for the widow and the orphan.” And, though the average man would not be dishonest if left to himself, yet when some of these worldly tempta tions come to him from without he yields because other men about him are accustomed to sin In the same way. Breaking the Circuit. I always look upon the infectiousuess of sin a great deal as I do upon the transmitting power of an electric cur rent. When we were young 1 had a classmate wbo owned an electric bat tery. Then he used to stand us boys around in a circle. We would all clasp bands, and the end men would take hold of tlie handles of the electric bat tery. Then my classmate would turn on the current, aud this current would go running from hand to band and from hand to hand until it had made the complete circuit If two of those men would unclasp their hands. In stantly the circuit would be broken and the current stopped. So 1 believe Satan sends the currents of tempta tions through the hearts aud the minds and the souls of men. He arranges ua about in circles. Then he gets us all to clasp hands. 3 hen because men by our side sin we sin, and because we sin other men sin. But. though there Is a pernicious com panionship of sin, there Is a saving companionship in Jesus Christ. When you clasp hands with loose men. with evil men. with sinful men. the currents of spir.tual death leap through your soul. When you clasp bauds with good f men. with God fearing men. with Christian men. the currents of spiritual life will go coursing through your minds and hearts aud souls. Now. my brother, the question for you to decide today is not whether you are tempted worse than auy other man has been tempted. Your spiritual temp tations are such as have always been Common to man. The great question for you to decide is whether you are willing to clasp hands with Jesus Christ and with good men who are struggling to save a sinful world and let the divine currents of redemption leap through your minds aud hearts aud souls as the electric current goes coursing over the wires. In other words, today are you going to break the divine currents which want to save and redeem you and give yourselves up to the evil currents which will be the means of your eternal overthrow? If we clasp hands with Jesus Christ, If we clasp hands with Christian men. If we get In touch with the divine life, we shall ourselves become divine. Now. my friends, the question for you and me to decide Is this: With whom ahull we clasp hands? Shall we clasp hands with Satan? Shall we clasp hands with Christ? If you clasp bands with Satan, you m'ist be destroyed by Satan. If you clasp bands with Jesus A Buried Forest.

In his will he explained that he did this because “otherwise the money would be in the hands of pigs who denied their identities” and that he “might as well give it to pork ers who made no pretenses.” He ak luded to some attentive cousins wbo were looking for legacies. But what a lovely Christian spirit and how well prepared to die! Then, too, how noble a purpose to which to devote the sav ings of a frugal and industrious life!

Some years ago our church paper contained a very able article on empty pews. The writer went on to say he had no doubt whatever that very many churches would g!adly give a liberal reward to any person who could tell how to fill the empty pews. As far as we know, no one has as yet come forward to solve the knotty question or capture the prize What an Immense burden would be lifted from many a faithful pastor's heart and from the financial aud spiritual departments of church life if this stern reality could be removed.
