On a journey in the country of an

be sight of a man badly wounded and
obbed of all valnables, most men would
inrry along us fast as possible to a

lelplcss one.
Here lies the power of the Christ
pirit. Help is to be given not so much
o friends who will appreciate the as- |
loiaucv, connors is 10 ue tendered less
o those who will accept it gratefully,
mt help in to be given the needy one
egardless of his evil disposition toward
he giver. .His need and onr capacity,
nr opportunity, are to be the coudiions
for onr giving aid.
The measure of our gift is not to be
or convenience. We are to walk, if
ecessary, while wo let our natural and
vowed enemy ride, and this not on
is own beast, but on ours. Onr wine
nd oil and clothing arc to dress his
rounds and our purse to pay his siek
xpenses. Because he loves us or our
eligiouY Not at all. Because he is good
nd worthy V Ho may not even thank
on for yonr kindness. Why, then,should
re do this? Becnupe we are to be good
nd love Him who has given us beast
nd wine and oil and raiment and
loney and power to journey, because
'e are privileged to feel compassion, i
le blessedness of sorrow for another's I
lisfortnne. We are %1 lowed to know 1
ud share the divine heart life, to be 1
i He is and do as He does.
We are to have vacations this snmler,
to go to unaccustomed places, see
ew scenes and faces. How much of |
ajoyment lies in store for usi At the I

:ross the continent, in the city, per- '
aps in foreign lands, we shall see and 1
?ar so much to widen the horizon of ^
lr narrow life und so mneh to brighten
le dullness of onr daily existence. So i

Some who have been Christians many

is a good scheme to read it through at
11st once in n lifetime. It is worth

Aered "dry" have springs of refreshg
and patches of verdnre. Think of a
uvelor to a foreign land going through
on foot for the first and only tinio
ith a good guidebook in his hand, bnt
iglecting to read it. Ob, he can very
Irely get through if he never opens it,
it he will miss much of the value of
le journey. What good is a guidebook
yon don't read it? Read it through,
arking passages for future cnrefnl

Nebuchadnezzar to Daniel's friends as 1
gavo them another chance for their live
threatening them with death in tho flei
furnace if they failed to worship the goh
en image which ho had sot up. Ho he
said to Daniel in connection with the do
Inrntion and interpretation of tho forgo
ten dream, "Of a truth it is that your Gc
is a God of gods and a luord of kings
(chapter ii, 47), but in his prido he ha
evidently forgotten this, and now there

10-IS. "Our God whom wo servo Is abl
to deliver us from the burning fiery fui
mice, and He will deliver us out of thin
hand, O king!" So they did not wish
second trial, for their purpose was liri
that they would not bow down to his god
nor to his golden image whieh he had sc
up, and they had no euro ;.s to const
quences. What splendid confidence i
God 1 What grand indifference to man o
his power! They knew and practiced Pi
Ixll, 5; xxvil, 0. To no one but the li\
ing God would they bow, and in Hin
alone would they trust.
10-32. The fury cf the king, who knev
no cr.o greater than himself, went fortl
against them, and the most mighty mei
In his army l>ound them and cast then
into the fiery furnace, which was heatei
seven times more than ordinarily. Th
king lias now done his worst, and thos
who dared to stand against hint have, a
ho thinks, perished The mighty mei
who cast them into the furnace died by i
spark (see margin) from the furnace, for i
Is a terriblo thing to touch a child of God
It is like touching the apple of His eyi
(Zcch. ii, 8). Then shall all perish fron
before Him who dare to stand agains
Hint. Tlie tienst and false prophet shnl
be cast alive into the lake of lire, and i
thousand years later the devil also shall b<
ast into the same place, to bo tormcutcc
'orcver (Rev. xlx, 20; xx, 10).
23. "And these three men fell dowr
louiul into the midst of the burning ficrj
'urnaco." If the flame cr a spark fron
he furnace slew the mighty men who cast
hem in, ono would naturally expect thest
hrco to hnvo |>crished instantly, and tin
;lng might have thought, or tho beholders
lavo said, "It is all over with them," but
heru are powers and agencies of which
lie mere natural man knows nothing
ilisha's servant saw only the Syrian army,
>ut Kllslia saw tho chariots of God. The
tngels are always ministering, and they
xeel in strength, and nothing is too hard

xxii, 17).
21, 25. "Lo, I seo four men loose, walktig
in the midst of thu fire, and they have
10 hurt; and the form of tho fourth is like
ho Son of God." This the king saw, and
bbj,CVJUJi5clors, whom ho
hat ho had .been watching tho furnace
roin afar and could seo into it, and ho
aw what ho never thought to have seen,
iving men walking in that seven times
tented furnace. This was something
;renter than ho knew anything about,
nd tho fourth person in tho furnaco had
oiuething strangely supernatural about
dm. Notice how tho ilro wrought upon
ho three men; it only burned their bonds
,ud set them free to walk with God. That
s just what fiery trials do for believers.
2U "Ye servants of the Most High God,
oine fortli and conic hither." Thus said
he king to tho men against whom ho had
i littlo before boon so furious. IIow
ihanged his attitude! And tho power of
Sod had done it. What a literal fulfill
ncnt there had Wen of Isn. xliii, 2, "When
hon walkcst through tho lire, thou shall
lot be burned: neither shall thn flame
duello upon thee." Ho can divide tho sen
>r walk u|H?n it, still tho stormy wind ot
nnko it Ilis chariot, quench the power ol
ho burning flame or ascend up in it (.ludg.
dii, 20). What became of tho fourthl
Vhenco He came, thither He returned.
Che threo never found tho fourth so real
ts in that fiery furnace, and many a bo
lever can testify that tho Lord novel
leomod so real as in deoi>ost trial
27. All tho rulers saw theso men upor
yhoso bodies tho flro had no power, not
vas a hair of their heads singed, noithei
vero their coats changed, nor tho smell ol
Ire had passed on them. When these rulers
ettimed to their homos in tho provinces
slid fold of tho great image and its dediea
ion, tho music and tho worship, thoj
vould doubtless siicak of theso lightly it
somparison with tho story of theso thre<
uul their wonderful oxjiorienco, and tin
insecn God whom they worshiped ant
His (lower over tho fiery furnace, and thui
tho God of Israel would bo magnified
But God does not always deliver this way
Sfefc in the resurrection all shall bo as frc<
from harm as were tho bodies of thesi
three.
28. "Blessed l>o tho God of Shailrnch
Meshach and Abotlncgo, who hath sent Hi
ingel and delivoretl His servants that trust
stl in Hint." Thus by refusing to worslii]
uny God except their own God they has
seen His (tower and now see Him honorei
by the king of Babylon,- who could no
otherwise so have known Him. Conform
ity to tho world never honors God, bu
separation from it for Christ's sake ahvay
does. Tho reason that tho church has s
little power for God is because sho is s
full of ltowing to tho world for tho sake o
the world's favor, when sho should bo seek
ing the favor of God alone.
29. "There is no other irnd that, rim dr
liver after this sort." Thus confessed tli
king, anil ho made a decree that if an
people, nation or languago should say any
thing amiss against tho God of these thre
men such should be slain. How wo migh
honor God, and how greatly Ho would b
honored in us if wo would positively n
fuso to Ixjw to tho world for tho sako c
its favor! Yet peoplo say, How could th
work go on if wo had not tho good will c

30. "Than tho king promoted Shad roc 1
Mcshnch anil Abcilncgo in tho provinoo c
Babylon." Littio did thoy think that th
stAUil they took against tho king woul
finally securo his favor. When wo seek t

without any seeking on our part give u
tho favor of all whom wo nccil and whoi

Topic For (he Week HcKlnnlnK July
lO?Comment by Rev. S. II. Doyle.
Topic.?A friend in need.?Lul:c x, 5W-U7.
Friendship is a great ln>on to mankind.
The value of trne friendship is
o. inestimable. It is a Messed thing to
:t, have a friend in whom we can abso;?l
lntely trnst, who knows ns altogether,
onr failings and onr weaknesses, as well
s our points of strength, and who, in
c_ spite of all, is constant and unfailing,
ltl cheering us in adversity, comforting us
10 in trouble, strengthening ns in wenks,
ness, and not failing even to place be*y
fore us our faults that we may he gnard'
ed against them. Such n friendship ennnot
be too highly priz<d, and sucli a
? friend should be sought by eviry man
Kj and woman. As early in life as possible
? the soul of every man and woman
id should be knit to the soul of another in
is an abiding friendship, as the souls of
uoijiiimm una JJavitl. If it were so unci
buninn friendships were never neglected
or betrayed, how uiuny clouds wonld be
lifted from the dark and dreary days of
life!
A friend in need is illustrated in the
topical reference by tho good Samaritan.
Though the relation between the Samaritan
und the man who fell among
thieves was not strictly what we call
friendship, yet it does set forth the
characteristics of a tine friendship.
1. It was friendship in adversity.
The good Samaritan was a friend in
need, und only a friend in need is a
friend indeed. Tocall a relation friendship
that exists only when the svm
shines and disappears with the coming
of the clouds is a misnomer. Snch a re,
lation is not friendship. It is but a base
imitation. "Trno friends wait to be
summoned in tlie time of prosperity, but
in trouble they come and offer their
help."
!3. It was a sympathizing friendship.
The Samaritan was a sympathizing
friend. Ho was touched to the heart by
tho needs of the man in trouble. The
prieHt and Lovite felt no such sympathy.
They were not friends.
8. It was a helpful friendship. The
Samaritan was practical in his sympathy.
Ho relieved tha man's wants
and provided for his future welfare. A
friend in need must be n practical
friend.
4. It was a continued friendship.
The future well being of the man in
trouble was provided for, and undoubtedly
the denuinrlu fr.v
, ? ..., .... om.li ?jiK??nrjiiian
J were met, or won Id have been had tlio
, case been real. True friendship mnst bo
. continued, constant, unchangeable,
i Jeans Christ alone fulfills the requirements
of an ideal, perfect Friend. Ho
is a Friend that sticketu closer than a
1 brother. He is a Friend in need, a sympathizing,
helpful, constant, unchangeable
Friend. No ono should be ir need
be without the friendship of Christ
Life without Christ's friendship is like
the sky without the sun.

The Value of Seusntlonnllsm.
The charge of sensationalism is not
always the worst that may be urged.
Sensationalism has its better side. The
sensationalist may be a charlatan, and
1 then he may be a prophet of God. Elijah
was a sensationalist. There is no
more dramatic incident in all history
tlinn the sceno on Mount Cannel. John
[ tho Baptist was a sensationalist, and bo
was Paul. They were the voices of
' thunder from a cloudless sky. Moses
was n sensationalist. His interviews
1 with Pharaoh were a series of sensa
; tionol demonstration. Such, too, was
t Joseph. Sanctified sensationalism is
. never a studied effect, hut always the
[ unusual. Earnestness breaks in upon
the humdrum world and creates a sen'
sntion. Honornble sensation is an effect,
but never a cause. ? Presbyterian Jpuy^

Secret I'nnlli,

" or not. We can be saved, cleansed,
