" Ijefc thy gifts Ik) to thyself, nntl givo | B thy rowartls to another, yet I will rctul tlio ' ^ writing uuto the king and nmko known to him the interpretation." Thut fspnlco 8 Daniel to Belshuzxnr when brought in to mHi mid interpret t lie handwriting on llio j j wall. For tlio third tiiuo the wise men of Babylon had failed to understand the tilings of Cod In chapter ii they could not tell the dream, in chapter iv they could not interpret a dream when they heard it., and now they fail either to read . or interpret four words plainly written on the wall licfore them (verse S). Thcso 81 three, instances fully demonstrate tin; utter a inability of the wisdom of this world to o understand the tilings of Cod. How much si a chair is needed to tench our students H how to depend upon the Holy Spirit ! j, 18, 19. "O thou king, the Most High >j God gave Nebuchadnezzar, thy father, a kingdom and majesty and glory and lion- u or." Then ho refers to its worldwide v character arid the power of the king. The C great thing to be noted in these two verses li is tliut all this kingdom and glory was the b gift of God. The king did not obtain it u by any .power that lie had. One ?>f the c great truths which Got! sought to impress ^ upon Israel was that all their power stud wealth was net gotten by their hand, but I1 that Ho bad given it to tlieni (l)eu* viil. 11 17, 18; compare I Chron. xxix, II, lrj). ?0. "But when his heart was lifted up t and his mind hardened in pride, lie was t deposed from his kingly throne, and they j( took his glory from him." The story of his humiliation is fully recorded in his , epistle to nil tho world found in chapter iv. iic was iaitltfully \vn nod by Daniel v as God's messenger and had a whole year 0 given him in whit h to profit by the warn- 11 ittg, but he failed to lay it to heart, and t the chastening canto upon him. 1 21. "Till I10 knew that the Most High { God ruled i:t the kingdom of men, ami j that He appointcth over It whomsoever Ho will." The name "Most High God" is j1 first used in Gen. xiv, IS, in, in eottnoc- ? tion with this other t^tle, "The Possessor of Heaven and Earth. As such He has a jterfcct right to do what lie will with His fi own, and tliis Nebuchadnezzar learned, as h ito states in it is epistle. "Ho doeth according to His will in the army of heaven and ^ among the inhabitants of the earth, and none can stay His hand or say unto Hint, What doest Thou? (chapter iv, fid; com- ^ pare Ps. c.txxv, 6; lxxv, (>, 7). il 22. "And thou ltis son, O Belshazzar, b hast not hr, ml tied titine heart, though s thou knewest all this." Anton and Zcilc- ^ kiah tiro mentioned among the kings tin v those who humbled not themselves, though thej' knew they ought t?? (II Citron, xxxiil, . 23; xxxvi, 12). Tho Spirit says by .laiues 11 that God resisleth tho proud, but. givcth v grace unto the humble (.tas. iv, (>), and in f Prov. xxix, 23, "A man's pride shall bring v him low, but itonor shall uphold the hum- g bio in spirit." ? 23. " Tho God in whose hand t liy breath v is and whoso aro all thy ways hast thou not glorified." How apt we aro to forget that "in lliia wo live and move and have . our being (Acts xvil, 2s); that it is not <> | in luatU4l.it *n (Urtvt Jiis s? '"Hh\ p 4rii man's heart doviscth his way, but tlie g! Iiortl dircctcth his steps (Jcr. x, 23; Prov p, xvi, 0). So wo go on not considering that ,u iho life God gives and the unconsing enro i(> . day and nigiit from iho beginning of our cxistcnco arc intended to lend us to Ilimself that wo may know Him. * P' 24-20. "Thisis the interpretation of the yt I thing: MEXE; Clod hath numbered thy us kingdom and finished it." It was not a cu wholo hand that was seen writing those words, but part of a hand; only the fingers (verses 5, 24) Sometimes God causes a voice to bo heard and sometimes the inessengor is wholly visible. Ho doeth nccording to Mis will and always with a reason. co Great things doeth Ho which wo cannot ,u* comprehend (Ezck. xiv, 23; Job xxxvii, 5). an If wo are wholly His, Ho will perfect that as which concernetli lis.. qn 27. "TEKEL; thou art weighed in the pa balances and found wanting." Tho I?rd (jej is a God of knowledge, and by Htm actions are weighed. All the ways of a man aro clean in his own eyes, but the Ixird weigheth tho spirits (I Sam. ii, 3; Prov. xvi, 2). Job desired to bo weighed in an oven bnlnneo, but while men of lowdogrco aro vanity men of high degree are a lie; to bo laid in tho balnnco they aro altogether lighter than vanity (Job xxxi, 0; Ps. lxll, ?) 88. "PERES; thy kingdom is divided and given to the Mcdcs and Persians." In tho first year of Belshiw*?r . ... uuuivi nu?v 111 (ho vision of wild beasts that which Nebuchadnezzar had seen in the vision of tho great image, tho succession of kingdoms, Babylonian, Mcdo-l'ersian, Grecian and Roman, then the kingdom without end. Tho differences in the visions are at least suggestivo of this fact?that to a man of tho world like the king of Babylon power Is something precious as gold or silver, ^ but to a man of God, waiting for tho king- /7A loin of God, the present governments of v| Mirth are like devouring wild leasts. 74. 20 "They clothed Daniel with scarlet uid put a chain of gold about his neck, uul made a proclamation concerning him, liafc ho should be the third ruler in tho tingdom." Thus lie is again honored beore men bocauso ho honored God. As it s written, "If any man servo Mo, him vill My Father honor" (John xil, 20), and ; fer(> igain, "Them that honor Mo I will hon- I roni >r" (I .Sam. it, 30). All earthly honors [ i)roj ro very fleeting, and Daniel sought them , ?. lot Ho sought tho honor that conieth I 9 ^ roin Coil only (John v, 11). ! 80. "In that night was Belshazzar, tho tba .ing of tho Chaldeans, slain."

( There is no moral quality in time or t lacea. Holiness is a quality of personal i haracter. It arises from th? recogni- t ion of moral obligations and thedispo- i ition to faithfully observo them. The ( erson who turns from evil with abhor- i ence of feeling and adheres to truth ! t nd goodness with joyous loyalty pos- i . esses holiness of heart. If, now, he > arries out this impulse to purity in t is nctions and words, he becomes holy 1 a life. < To know tho right and to maintain . t he heart life in constant obedience to i Sod and keep all acts of mind and body 1 a subjection to His law, one must have 1 imes for qui^t thinking.

S. II. Dnylr. Topic.?Honoring tho Lord's day.?fcx. xx, (-11; IU'V. i, 10. One of the most vital questions of .'bristlanity today is that of "honoring he Lord's day." It is being dishonored nore and more. The enemies of Chrisianity disregard and denounce it, and. what is worse, tho professed friends of Christ are neglecting to lrecp it holy md sacred to God, and manv even claim liat it was only a commandment to the lews and abrogated by Christ with the symbols and ceremonies of Judaism. Such a claim is preposterous. Man's jody, mind and soul need the Sabbath lay as much as ever tliev did Tin. Sabbath was an eternal institution ami 30 distinctive part of Judaism alone, >eing instituted centuries before Abraham or Mcs's was born. That Christ lid not do away with the Sabbath is arrived by the fact that He kept it Him elf. At Nazareth on the Sabbath day He went to the synagogue, "as His custom was." That man would be prone to forget this day God realized, for He ticgan the commandment, "Remember the Sabbath day." We are commanded to remember what we are likely to forjet. That we should honor the Sabbath lay scarcely needs proof. (1) We should lo so in imitation of God. God rested >n the Sabbath day and hallowed it. We should therefore, in imitation of Jed, rest on and hallow the Sabbath lay. ('21 We should honor the Sabbath jeeauso God commands us to do so. He Himself has commanded us to "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it loly." To refuse to do so is to break a silenin command of God. (3) We should iionor the Sabbath, as God requires, lor nil* own onl'oo 1 41 A 1 ...? u.. .i ocincr. m; in i n nit real uini Ihe opportunity for worship of God and oinnmnion with God. (1) Wo lose nothing by giving this ilay to God. Six lays of manna in the wilderness, provided for seven days' necessity. In the providence of God six days' labor will provide for seven days' existence, and thus Ho has made it possible to keep this day without loss or injury to our .emporal well being in any way. God Himself has told us how to houar this day. It is to he hallowed, to he icpt holy and sanctified. Weave to rest from physical labors, but rest is not the ?nd, but only the means to the end. Rest is necessary that the day may be sanctified. Thousands of laborers are incapacitated from making thisa hallowed lay because they are not allowed to rest from their labors. John was in the spirit on the Lord's day. Rev. i. 10. Let us be in tin; Spirit on that day, and ivo will keep it holy and sacred, and will, like John# receive visions of God and of heaven.
