Oft. d—In this fMYOiuu the pivarbcr pictures life :is a Journey and the world as a great tom porary camping ground and shows what preparations and pre<aintions are j necessary to avoid its snares and pit- I falls. The text is Luke ii, 44. “Went , a day's journey.” In olden times man could live with less dependence than now on bis fel low men. Yet there were certain neces sities It was imperative for him to take along when he went on a long jounmy. So essential were these necessities Unit no man in the east ever broke away from civilization until he hail lirst made sure that he bad them all along, for when the home cities had once been left behind the hills and the jour ney iiad commenced there was no way of procuring these necessities. Thus In Palestine, when a caravan or a party of travelers were about to journey from one region into another region .And go through a wilderness of rocks and trees Infested by wild beasts and brigands, they would always start their tirsi day’s journey about 4 or 5 o'clock in the evening. Then they would Journey five or eight miles and pitch camp. Then they would over haul their baggage and look to the trappings of the horses and see that flicir spears and their bows and arrows and swords and hunting weapons were at hand and in good order. Then they would count noses and find out wheth er all the members of the families were present. Then if anything or anybody was absent or forgotten, and there was almost sure to be something or some body left behind, a messenger could re turn to town and replenish what was needful or bring back the person who was inadvertently lost. A wise camp ing party going to the woods for a slimmer vacation in this country does well to practice the same custom. Al ways start your lirst day’s journey in the morning Almost without excep tion. careful as you may he, you will find that some essential upon which the happiness of your summer trip is more or less dependent has ls>en left behind. Now. when Joseph and Mary, after the feast of the Passover at Jerusalem, had turned north for their home city of Nazareth they followed this custom of the east. They started in the even ing. After they had pitched camp with the other members of the travel ing party they Itegan to overhaul their go*sis to see if they had forgotten any thing. They were going through a wild region, not only Infested by robbers and w r ild beasts, but by their unfriend ly neighbors, the Samaritans. After they had looked over their clothes and food supplies Mary turned to her hus band and said, "Joseph, dear, where is Jesus?” “Oh,” answered Joseph, “I think he is all right in the camp. I saw him when we were in Jerusalem, and I supposed that he was with friends. Rut I have not seen him siuee we started.” As the night had almost fallen, Mary, motherlike, be came anxious. Sin; went from tent to tent and from campfire to campfire. Everywhere she kept asking the (jues- tions: “Have you seen Jesus? Have you seen my boy? Did he not leave the Jerusalem walls with us? I can't find my Jesus anywhere.” Well, Mary,” said an old Hebrew, “never mind. It is only a few miles back. We have only traveled our first day’s journey. We will wait for you a day. and you go hack and you will find him. Nearly always somebody is left be hind. That is the reason we always start our first day’s journey in the evening hour.” Life «s a Camping Journey. As one who has camped a good deal n life and spent many months in tho open, this text has taken a firm hold upon my mind and heart. Life always seems to me to he a camping Journey. When we plunge Into tin* woods we break away from the old homestead. Then we have to he surrounded by new faces and depend upon the strength of our own hands for our suc cess or failure. Now, some people start forth on this journey of life In a hap hazard way. They do not seem to care what they have In camp or what they have left liebind. They start off on their Journey of life early in the morning, and when they pitch camp at ni,' * they are so far away from the home city that they cannot go back and procure what they lack. Others start thejr journey of life In the oFening. Then if anything is lost Ohej^etorn for the necessary supply. So may it he with us. As some of us are Just pitching camp a fety miles away from the old homesteads, I want you to take an inventory and find out what essentials you lack and go back and procure then; I want you. In the first place, for this journey of life to overhaul your men tal equipment. I am not asking you whether you hate a mind. There is not a man or a woman here who has not gray matter enough to make a success in life if that brain is used aright. Rut what I am asking jou is this: Have you a developed and educatt-d i rnin*' Have you a brain capable of accom plishing results? Have yon a brnf% t FOLEYSKIDNEYCURE Mali— Kid—ye and Bladder Right Dyspepsia wts what y*m • Care that has l*;en h-night and trained so us ♦o enable you to excel in some depart ment of th'» world’s work? We cannot all Ik* lawyers <>r physicians, but every man Is-foro he sets out on his journey lo active life should have found cm what la hi* specialty and should have been trained to succeed lu It. It may la* only to make a table oi construct d watch, hut he should be able to do that better than other i»eople. If he Is a lapidary he should Is* able to distin guish the precious stone from the com mou pebble and should know how to cut and polish It. if you find when you make your first halt that you have n<|t this capacity to do some one work 1*^ than others. 1 would advise you go buck and acquire this power, this trained brain, before you proceed fur ther. Kememlier you are pitching camp as did Joseph and .Mary after your first day’s Journey. In camp every one must be willing to do his part, and more than his part, or else* friction will surely come. Borne one must chop the wood and cook and wash the dishes. Some one must carry the water and unload the pack mules or the wagon. Some one must'take the long, weary journey to find grain and pasture for horses. All these tasks are not easy to perform when your mus cles are tired and you have the blood jumping and jabbing and throbbing in your Inflamed feet. But some one has to do these tasks. If you are not w illing to do them some one else must. And yet sometimes you will have a man on a camping trip who Is too lazy and selfish to do anything or to learn to do anything. He magnifies his own troubles and disparages your labors until he Incomes a perfect pest and makes himself miserable and Irritates every ohe around him. That Is the Journey of life. Some men are willing to do their share of work and a great deal more than their share of work. If they are mentally Incompetent, then they bravely and conscientiously say: “I will repair my mental deficiencies. I will learn to do my duty. When 1 am Ignorant I will manfully shoulder the burden God has given me to carry.” Is that your life, O man? Is that your life, O woman? What you mentally lack are you by God’s help aud by hard labor w illing to develop? In the Redwood Fore«t«. I was mightily impressed with this fact some time ago when traveling among the famous redwood forests of northern California. We had been climbing one of those lofty hills wuen night overtook us. We slept near a watering trough by the roadside. The tall trees grew taller. The silence of the woods became more still. The presence bf God was perceptible as it is to none hut those who have been communing with him In the silent places of nature. The next morning a fine, tall, handsome man stopped In camp. He was on his way hack to his timber claim. He asked me to accom pany him and take a shortcut through the woods to lie road ahead, and I went While we walked along he told me the struggles of his life. He was left fatherless at eight years of age. At nine he was working for his living. At eleven he was driving a plow. Ut terly alone he had to work his way up. Some years ago he came to the red wood forests as a teamster. Now he was the owner of some of the finest sections in that region. Then what do you suppose he talked about? His suc cess? Oh, no! About his lack of edu cation. Though a grow n man of near ly thirty years of age, he intended the next winter to go hack to Eureka and enter the public school as if he had been a little l>oy. Do you suppose you could keep down a man like that? Never! He worked, and he worked hard, hut as he worked he said, “The educational deficiencies of my youth I must and will rectify.” 1 admired that man’s courage and humility. I thought th'ui what a good thing it would l»e for some of us If v\e took the same course. At tho end of the first day’s Journey vve have dis.overed that we have not the cajia* it.\ requisite to fulfill the du ties we have undertaken. We spent our school a: ! ollege days in idleness and frivolity. We are not equipped for the journey of life. Is it possible for ns to lay aside our pride aud go back to obtain the equipment we need? Dangers to Be Met. But a man in the Journey of life needs to l»e more than mentally equip- j>ed. He must also he physically and morally pioieeted. As many dangers controuted the oriental traveler, so w hen a } o .ag man breaks loose from his home surroundings there are many temptations before him. The only way to successfully meet and overcome those temptations is to prepare for them before we start. Y’ou would not have thoughi much of the old “forty- niner” who attempted to cross the western prairie without first well test ing bis slmoibig irons. He may not have eared how the exterior of his guns looked, but he was very careful nlsmt the inner side of his rifles. He always saw to it that no rust was there and there was no indentation of his barrels. Whetuer those guns shot straight or uo was to decide his life or death. The fierce savages, the ugly grizzlies, the bun, ry panthers aud the half starved pack of wolves ail de manded that he should be well protect ed. He therefore took care that his gun was in good order and that he had plenty of ammunition. Then in olden times the travelers never depended spun their guns alone. They looked for success to their com panions’ guns as veil. Thus in the far east as well as In our own country you rarely found men traveling long distances alone. When the old “forty- niners” traveled through the west they met at some outskirt town and made up a train. Then when they were pass ing through the regions infested by hosiile savages they traveled as an ar my. The sentinels kept watch at night. The horse** *-er** securely guarded lest they might he Ktum[»eded In some mid night raid When the camp was at tacked th# wagons were used as for tresses and ihe riflemen deployed. If you and I go camping a few miles from home where we encounter only the gentle sheep and cattle of some friendly rancher, u does not make much difference where we slfeep. W* open our camp cots at any position. But when we art* In the W'**ds far away from the nearest railroad sla- tiou, when we hie away to the lair of the boar and the treaeherof t wildcat, then we hug close to the c npfire aud have th* magazines of oi guns well filled with cartridges, for 'here Is dan ger lurking on every ha'd. Now, In this journey of life we must meet our moral and spiritual dangers. In our first halting place away from home do we find ourselves prepared to resist those dangers? If not, then had we ^be UP- 1 tit not better go hack where we can sup ply our spiritual deficiencies.? Study the life of your father and mother. How did your father meet the awful troubles and trials and temptations which came to him? When he told you some years ago of some of his struggles ami how he had been unjustly treated and how sin in its most enticiRg form came to him you said: “Father, 1 don’t see how you withstood those troubles and tempta tions. Why, father, if that temptation had come to me I surely would have fallen.” So you would if you had to meet those temptations as you are. But you w’ould not fall If you had the divine strength which was given to him. When you think of your father now, you cannot remember one mo ment when he did not impress you with the fact that he had a superuat- ural strength given to him with which to meet the temptations of life. My brother, you have the same tempta tions to meet as he had. Do you not crave the same divine strength with which to fight those moral aud splr- > I <i •!* •ni which our text teacbeH—that Is, when we start out on our journey of life we should take all our dear ones along. A man may have an unutter able longing for the woods. His over taxed brain and nerves may be (-ailing to him day by day: “lies!, rest! I must have rest!" He may be in great glee as lie packs away his camping outfit and puts his tr<*ut files carefully away in his pocket book and straps his gun cases. He may feel his blood coursing through his veins with renew ed strength as he leaves civilization hind and climbs the mountain un tPoddcn save by the woodsman with bis axes. But when night liegins to fail and time for going to sleep lu his camping hag comes around or when Sunday comes w hen he does not fish or hunt or travel the one thought which is uppermost in his mind aud heart is this: “1 wonder how the folks arc getting along at home? 1 wonder If the babies are well? I wonder if I will ever see them again? Oh, I wish they were all here!” Friend, have you ever been on a camping trip when you have been weeks and weeks away from home? Have you ever had this unutterable longing come oYer you which some people call old fashioned homesickness?’ Then, if you so miss your dear ones when you are away from home for a few weeks, how do you suppose you would feel if you were never to meet them again? The Dear Ones. Mary and Joseph, w r hy are you so anxious about Jesus? He is nothing but a boy, a small boy twelve years of age. Why do you want to go clear back to Jerusalem to find him? “Why,” Itual dangers? If your dear father j says Mary, “If w r e do not take Jesus was to rise from his grave, would he not be speaking to you as I am doing now? It Is not too late to go back to Jerusalem and at the altar of Calvary supply your spiritual deficiencies. Re- memlier, you are still at your first spiritual camping place. It is not too late to take Ghrist along with you on your Journey of life. The Destination. But there Is another fact we must settle l>efore we start upon the Journey of life, and that is our destination. If you were to go to one of the old fron tier tow-ns of 1850, you would find many people assembling there from all ’ the different parts of the United States. Some of those trains of “prai rie schooners” would he planning to go to Oregon and Washington territories. Some w’ould be sc king the gold fields of California. Some would be seeking western farms. Each of those emi grants was planning to go to some definite region, and he would lay bis plans and map out his Bourse before he started. It is of vital importance for a man to know in what direction he is to travel before he leaves the home city. After w-t* have been traveling on day after day ft is almost impossible for us to turn hack and start out with another party of emigrants. If you were to enter the camp tonight In which Joseph aud Mary were traveling you would find there was no doubt In their minds in which direction they were going to travel. I-et us ask Jo seph and have him tell us how be cams to join this caravan. Here he is now by the campfire. Mary and he are worrying about their absent l>oy. “Hello, Joseph, is that you? You say you left Jesus behind? How could any loving father and mother do as you have done?” “Well,” answers Joseph, “I will tell you. We went down to Jerusalem to attend the Passover feast. After the national along now something may happen to him. He will find out that we have left him, and then he may try to fol low us and be killed by the robbers or the wild beasts or perhaps sold into slavery. Oh, no; we must find our hoy. We could never be happy a day unless we knew that our dear boy was safe.” Friend, Is not that the way we should be in the Journey of life? Could we ever he happy on earth or In heaven unless we knew that our dear ones were safe with us and safe with God? And yet, alas, bow many of us do not seem to care whether our husbands and wives and brothers and sisters and children are safe In Christ! Dare we, can we longer continue our jhurney to ward the city of the New Jerusalem unless we go back and persuade our loved ones to surrender their hearts to Jesus Christ and come along? But many of us are to be counted among those who have just started up on the wrong road of sin. We are not far from the Jerusalem walls. We are at the first stopping place. We have now plenty of time to look around and see if we are In evil company and take an account of our deficiencies. Will you not go hack to the purities of your past life? Will you not rectify your mistakes and evil tendencies? Will you not start your spiritual and temporal Journey anew? You have not gone over the precipice of sin. You are only near ing the brink where you may look into the gaping depths of an eternal death. This hour is a critical time in your life. You are uot only deciding your destiny for time, but you are deciding what goal you will reach for eternity. Christ today is pleading with you to come back to the higher and nobler life. Your dear ones are also pleading with you. It Is not too late. You are only camping at the lirst halting place, not far from the city of Jerusalem. “But they, supposing him to have been in the cot j) puny, went a day’s journey, and they sought him among their kins Nursing Mothers and Orer-burdened Women In all stations of life, whose vigor and vitality may have been undermined and broken-down by over-work, exacting social duties, the ton frequent bearing of children, or other cause-*, will find la Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription tho most potent, Invigorating restorative strength- giver ever devised for their special bene* fit Nursingfiuothers wiHJind it especial ly valuable ik sustaining a|mlr strength and promotingNtn abundant muirishment for the child.

Don’t do it. festivity was over I began to look around to find out when the first party folk and acqualntanee.' of travelers was going north to nay j [Copyright, l'’07, by Louis Riopsch.] home town of Nazareth. Every day 1 — the people were leaving, but they were , The Number of Animals, all going in directions we did not wish i Every now and then, says Wlssen to travel. Last night I heard that a i fur Alle, some naturalist endeavors to party of men would start for the Zeb- make an approximate numerical count alon hills. Of course both Mary and myself had to do a lot of preparation in order to get off tit such quick notice. In the excitement of getting our things together vve did not look as carefully after our boy as we ought. This la the only party of travelers who are going to Nazareth for two weeks. We had to join this party or not go at all. Tbla Is the reason why Jesus was forgotten some animal hitherto unknown, in the rush of getting off.” Yes, it As Nurmaun remarked to a recent would have l*een very silly for Joseph meeting of naturalists at the museum, and Mary to travel toward Maehpelah to which he presented his “Catalogues in the hope of somehow getting around Mammalium,” the species of rodents to Nazareth. It is a very foolish move known in 1880 were only 970 in uum- for some of us to start the Journey of l»er. Now they are 1.900. The number life when we do not know or care to has thus at least doubled In twenty- wbut destination we are heading. 0 man, are you traveling toward heaven? Are you Journeying toward the cross? Sinful Companions. But there is still another warning which I want you to heed well In your Journey of life that is the moral and the spiritual character of the men and the women with whom you are hound to be brought in daily association. This warning is uo joke in reference to those with whom we go forth into the woods u]jou some summer vaca tion. If you do uot heed well the kind Of people with whom you go camping in the summer your whole spiritual life may he wrecked. No man, I care not bow strong he may be, is strong enough to resist the pernicious influence of sinful compan ions. There is an old saying that If you put one decayed apple in a barrel filled with red apples which hava just been gathered from the orchard that rotten apple in time will contaminate all the other apples in the barrel. Therefore If you put one good apple among a dish of decayed apple* it will not be long before that good ap ple will become decayed. And yet some people profess to believe that a good man can be placed side by side with B lot of morally diseased men and be Bf good as If not better than when be began t* associate with bis evil com panions. That belief le against all the laws of common sense. Bat there Is on* feet above all otfa- seven years.
