These captives were not multreaied
nor enslaved, in the ordinary
sense of the term. Their Intellectual
qualities were discerned, and they
were rut into a superior school that
they, with others, might be tlrted to
constitute a t>oard of wise men, oou:i
selors of the king. 80 different Is all
this from the nepotism, "graft" and

Advantages of Abstemiourness
The young Hebrews were attached
to the king's household and were pro
vlded with extraordinary delicacies,
including spirituous liquors. The policy
of tlie king In providing sumptuously
for all the students was that,
being well nourished, they might be
In their best physical and mental con
dition. This lesson shows that it is a
mistake to suppose that high living is
specially conducive to intellectuality?
not to mention spirituality.
Prom the beginning, under God's
providence, the deportment of Danle!
brought him into special favor with
the prince of the eunuchs, who hud In
charge the temporalities of these stu'
,'v dents. There is something in a meek
and quiet spirit that is impressive;
and as a rule such a spirit coines only
from a proper, religious training. To
Pai iel und Thrve Compamwm.
this eunuch Daniel, and his associate*
through hiui, appealed, requesting that
instead of the fine food and liquors
provided they might have a plain vegetable
diet. Their request was granted
At the eud of the period of theit
preparation, the king communed with
the students "and among them all wa?
found none like Daniel, Ilananluh.
Mishuel and Azariah: and in
eve-v matter of wisdom and underf
standing concerning which the king
Inquired of them he found them ten
times better than all the magician*
and enchanters that were Id his
realm."
The Secret of Daniel'* Success
.What was the secret of this wisdom
? find understanding? Did not the secret
lie tn the blessing of God and in the
ffict that these young men sought to
devote their lives to the doing of the
Divine will?to the doing of righteoos/*
Such minds anywhere, at any
_
time, are scarce. Such minds always
bespeak wisdom. On the other hand,
sensuality, selfishness, the grinding of
personal axes, always becloud the
judgment.
What we need today In every walk
of life. Is consecrated men of the
stamp of Daniel and his companionswhole
hearted men?who will give
their for the service of their fel*
low men in whatever sphere their Jives
may be cast
Dare to Be a Daniel
Although few of us today can be
Daniels or have his hlgb position and
wonderful opportunity, and though
few are leading spirits as was Daniel,
yet all may have the same spirit of
devotion to the principles of righteousness,
which devotion will be tested, under
Divine providence, step by step,
through the "narrow way," as they
seek to walk in the footsteps of Him
who set us nn example?our Daniel,
our Leader, our Lord Jesus. Let all,
then, who have nuined the named of
Christ, depart from iniquity. Let all
such be faithful. What is really need
ed Is the Daniel spirit; and that is a
possibility with every man and every
f woman?young or old. "Dare to be a
Daniel!" Alas! how fow appreciate
the privilege, how few are enulating
the Daniel spirit!
Christians, throughout this Age. are
in a position very similar to that of
Daniel. The great King of Glory has
them in the School of Christ. He
wishes to select a few to be Joint-heirs
in the Messianic Kingdom when it
shall be established. The test of examination
will come in the end of this
J Age. Those who will men do rcrunu
worthy will he such as have the Daniel
spirit of devotion to God and to
the principles of righteousness?'willingness
to lay down their lives In the
service of the truth?followers In the
footsteps of Jesus. Of the6e i:he Lord
speaks, saying. "They shall l)e Mine,
saith the Lord, in that Day when I
make tip My Jewels."?MaiachJ HI, 17.
