March 1.—That we should make no compromise with evil and should be bold and outspoken in our stand agaiust sin, no matter how much we may love the sinner, is the lesson of this sermon, the text for which is taken from I Samuel xvl, 1, “How long wilt thou mourn for Saul?” Who has not road with thrilling in terest Sir Walter Scott’s story of Jeanie Deans? I was much Interested in learning that the heroine of that story was a real character, a girl who lies buried near Dumfries, on whose tomb stone Is an epitaph written by Scott himself. It is impossible to refrain from tears as we read the story. The girl, whose life is wrapped up in that of her young sister, gives evidence against her that convicts her of a cap ital offense and then walks all the way to London to obtain a pardon for her. The brave girl could not tell a lie even to save her sister from a shameful death, but could undergo hardship to deliver her. That is heroism, the hero ism of a fine soul that loved intensely, but feared to sin. Few of us could have done a thing so heroic. We try to shield our loved ones. We shrink from exposing them. We sometimes shrink even from reproving them lest we cause them pain. We try to shield and cover up thdr wrongdoings even as you sometimes see a foolish mother shields from her husband the wrong doings of her prodigal sou because she is afraid the father might punish the boy. It was in this way that Samuel clung to his protege, Saul. Most of us think of Samuel as a stern faced, grim vis- aged mentor to the young king. We picture him standing before the offend er implacable as a goddess of justice with blinded eyes holding high the scales and ready without a particle of personal regret to execute the sentence when the scales indicate guilt. But underneath this stern set, iron muscled countenance of Samuel was a heart of deep, tender, faithful love. Though he must denounce Saul’s sins, he could not cease to love Saul. Ills heart seem ed to cling to Saul, and he would have been glad, had it been right, to cover up Saul’s misdeeds. Thus in the text the Lord finds the old prophet and says practically Ibis: “Samuel, how long are you going to grieve for Saul? He has done wrong. Are you going to continue to stay at home and grieve? Are you not going forth to try to rec tify the evil Saul has done? Come, Samuel, be a man. Be brave and true to your nobler aiwl better self. Come, I have selected another king for Is rael.” As God came to Samuel in times of old God is coming to us and bidding us refrain from useless grief. Sr.u! a Darn King. In the first place you must remember that Saul was a handsome man. He was not only a king by election, but he was one of those wonderful men who are described as every Inch kings because of their physical pres ence. He was not only tall, standing head and shoulders above all his com panions. but he was perfectly formed. And his face in its beauty must have looked like the features chiseled out of marble by Phidias to form the beauti ful countenances of Greek gods. His bearing when he first came before Samuel was so humble and pure that, even in the eyes of the stern faced prophet, nothing was to be criticised, nothing was to lie apprehended. Saul had tin* refinement in his make up which came from a cultured life. He was the son of one of the repre sentative men of ills tribe. His blood was of the best. lie walked with the conscious gait of one well born, who was a natural leader among men. Ills ancestors for generations had been great men. If you turn to the record, you can read these words: “Now, there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becborath, the son of Aphiah, a Bcnjamite, a mighty man of power. And he had a son whose name was Saul, a choice young man and goodly, and there was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person to look upon than he. From his shoul ders and upward be was higher than any of the people.” Can you not see Saul moving along, the cynosure of all eyes? C’annot you see him. handsome as an Apollo Belvedere? Was it any wonder that Samuel the prophet should love him and hate to give him up? It is so easy to excuse the sins of a man and a woman when they are beautiful and graceful. But because Saul, the handsome man. was a sinner, was that auy reason why his sins should not be condemned by God just as much as If he was an ugly dwarf? Mary, Queen of Scots. Take, for instance, the life of Mary, queen of Scots. There is a lot of maudlin sentimentality expended over that sinful life. But was not John Knox right when he used to stand up In the Scottish pulpit and denounce her profligacies until that beautiful queen would drive the nails Into the palm of her hand and her teeth ipto her lips until the blood came? And should not scores and hundreds of our women to day in social life be denounced by some modern John Knox if they are mining the lives of men by the charm hnd attraction of their pretty faces? When the great day of judgment comes It will be found that many of the sins Of this day which we look upon as triv ial will be catalogued as among the worst of sins in God’s sight. And there Is no sin, I believe, which will be more condemned than that sin so often prac ticed by women with pretty faces, which is called the sin of flirtation—a sin which sometimes not only destroys all a man’s true appreciation of a wo man’s honor, but will sometimes send a man into a drunkard's grave and into a suicide’s eternity. Shall the world honor the handsome face of Lord Byron when one realizes to what base uses he put that hand some face? .If you would read one of the vilest and the most disgusting reve lations of depravity, all that you have to do is to turn the pages of “Childe Harold.” whicli is believed to be an autobiography, and know what Eng land’s handsome poet was ablq to ac complish for the degradation • of tho human race. Oh. men and women, be cause sin is masked behind a beautiful countenance, remember it does not cease to be sin. God blasts the sin of a handsome Saul, and he will blast the sins of our modern lecherous and adul terous Lotharios as well. Pity Samuel for clinging to the handsome Saul if you will, but do not condemn him un less you condemn all the men and wo men who make excuses for the modern Don Juans because of their charm or their beauty. Friends Who Are Wrong. 1 know it is hard to turn our backs upon some friends when we know they are doing wrong. I know that some of those friends wield a powerful influ ence over our lives. There is a breezi ness, a freshness, an originality about some of them that holds us to them like a magnet. We know, furthermore, that some of those wicked friends love us with a devoted love, but if we do not break away from them In time their sins will corrupt us. There is an old proverb which says, “If a man preaches what he does not believe, after awhile he believes what he preaches.” That is true, but another fact is also true. If you make a bosom friend out of one who is living contrary to all that you believe to be right, after awhile you will begin to sin as be sins and do as lie does. You cannot systematically as sociate with an evil minded person and not in time become evil minded your self. And the more fascinating the friend the quicker your own spiritual ruiu. What right have you to go with a man or a woman who will tell an im moral story? And I would warn my hearers of Iwith sexes on this subject, for there are certain women who are just as shameless in listening to such stories as are some men. What right have you to go with men who are loose In their morals or with those who make light of the purity of the home? What right “have you to make l>osom com panions out of those who do not honor the house of God aiyl all that the house of God stnjids for? What right have you to yoke yourself In business part nership with a man whom you have to watch every moment for fear he will bring a scandal and a disgrace on the name of the firm? Did your Christian father and mother ever go with such associates as you select for your daily companions? Would you be willing to have your companions make tho coarse remarks before your wife or chiklre'a which they often laughingly make be fore you? Either you must lift your daily companions up to your moral and spiritual level or else they will drag you down to theirs, and there is no ex ception to the rule. Have you a right to associate with sinners and expect to escape becoming in lime a companion with them in their sins? ^ The Bands of Authority. But there was another reason why Samuel clung to the royal apostate. Saul was a king. He had been anoint ed by the order of the Lord God Al mighty. TTe Ir.rl ’ eon selected from all the tribes to rvl over Israel. There was a certain sanclty about him. Of course ho bad proved false to his trust, but still Saul was king. As king the people had been taught to do him reverent o. Tho hardest bands to break are the bamD of regal authority. We are ready t » sen 1 the common thief to the penitentiary, but we bate to Im peach the honesty of those who have been placed over us In properly con stituted authority. And yet when the king does wrong should he not suffer? When the president of the United States or a legislator or a governor or a mayor does wrong, should be not also suffer? And when wickedness and cor ruption fasten themselves upon our political life should we not by the grace of God cast off those sins and also cast off those politicians who are responsible for the moral obliquity? I had this truth most wonderfully portrayed before me some time ago when I heard Samuel P. Pearson ad dressing a great popular meeting in Chicago. Mr. Pearson had been elect ed a few months before sheriff of Port land. Me. Although Maine was a “dry” state, there were many “speak easies” being run on the sly. The people of Maine’s capital said those places con 11 not be shut up. but Mr. Pearson said. “Elect me your sheriff and in six weeks there will not be a speak easy In all the county.” The people took him at his word. He shut up those speak ensios so quickly that the sa loon keepers did not have time to ship their beer and whisky out of town, bat had to empty the barrels in the gutter ami let their poisonous liquors run away into the sewers, where they be longed. Well, of course Pearson’s name was heralded from the Atlantic to the Pacific and praised by all good people. He was Invited to address a ministers' mass meeting in Chicago, and there he told us how he became a Prohibition ist and why he was so bitter against the other two political parties. Sheriff Pearson’s Story. This was his story, as I remember it. When Pearson was a young man, there was an election going on In Portland. He stood In line waiting to cast his vote for a certain candidate. Ahead of him he saw a disreputable saloon keeper. He accosted him and said: “Hello, So-and-so! For.whom are you going to vote?” Strange to say, Mr. Pearson found out that this disreputa ble saloon keeper was goi ig to vote for the same candidate that lie (Pearson) was supporting. Behind him he saw a notorious libertine, gambler and drunk ard. Mr. Pearson asked him whom he was going to vote for, and, strange to say, he found out that this libertine and drunkard wanted the same man elected as he (Pearson) was going to vote for. Then Mr. Pearson stopped and soliloquized: “Do I desire the same men to govern this city that those cor rupt men want? Am I going to travel with the same crowd they run with? No; I am responsible to God and my country for the actions of the men whom I help to elect to office. You had better either purify your party and kick these dissolute members of society out or else help start a new ) party which these men will condemn. What they want you don’t. And what you should want these men do not want.” There is the whole question of political life in a nutshell. Now, I care not how brilliant Saul may Ite when he is king. I care not to which political party he belongs, but this is what you should want to know: Whom is Saul serving? What kind of men wish him to be elected to the throne? Is this Saul who is seeking of fice today prepared to fight tho saloon? Does this Saul promise to obliterate the gambling hells of the city? Does lie promise to close up the dens of in famy? Does he want the Bible in the public schools? Is he the friend or the foe of tho dissolute memliors of the I community? With whom is lie train- | Ing? Do yon elect Saul to a position of j political life and keep him there mere ly because lie is brilliant of tongue and overlook the fact that he is rotten in morals? That is the question Samuel had to answer.

If one person more than another should know the value of ft medicine It is the retail pharmacist. For this reason such testimony as the following should be convincing: C. A. Patterson, the leading drug gist of Charleston, W. Va., writes: “I have used Vlnol for every member of my family, and have never been disappointed fn the results. It Is a pleasure to sell a remedy that gives such universal satisfaction.” Mt. Chas. E. Rogers, druggist. Elk- ton, Ky., writes; I consider Vlnol one of the best remedies In my store, and sell more of it than any one me dicine. I have also used Vlnol In my family with excellent results.” Mr. J. F. Bradley, of New Bruns wick, N. J., writes: “It Is a pleasure to recommend the cod liver prepara tion, Vlnol, as it gives such splendid satisfaction. As I have used it in my family, I can recommend it from ex perience.” The reason Vlnol Is so far superior to old-fashioned cod liver oil and emulsions Is because it contains all the medicinal, body building ele ments of cod liver oil actually taken from fresh cods’ livers with all the useless oil eliminated and peptonate- of-iron added. As ft body builder and strength cre ator for old people, weak women, del icate children, after sickness and for all pulmonary troubles, Vlnol Is rec ommended by over 5000 of the lead ing druggists of the United States.

That fruit is made out of the IDeblorvl of the child's spiritual existence. Beware, parent, how you. like Samuel, allow’the sins of Saul to develop unrebuked. No One Like Saal. But, lastly. I think Samuel grieved for Saul because he said: “If Saul fails, who can make a success? Why. in all Israel there is not another like him. He is the handsomest and the best. What shall we do? What shall we do?” But God said: “Fear not. Samuel. I will raise up another. Take thy anointing born and go where I tell thee. David will do for me what Saul has failed to do.” So when we find a great man go astray we say: “Oh, what shall we do? What shall we do?” But God will bring us another. Fear not. Fear not. Only follow God and he will bring tho right man to thee. If God anoints a man, then it is God’s work, and we have only to do his will. And is it not a blessed thought that no one Is essential to the Lord's work? God is always able to send some one to take the vacant place.

Samuel was the Instrument in God’s hands chosen to make him king. Samuel lifted the anointing horn to pour the sacred oil upon Saul’s head, ahd in one sense Samuel looked upon him as a loving parent sometimes looks upon the erring deeds of a favorite child. He tried to shield him and pro tect him and to ward off his coming doom. And when Samuel did this be was like Ell. He only hastened the coming tragedy of this handsome king.
