INTERNATIONAL LESSON,
NOVEMBER 9:
Lesson. VI. Abstiiteue-e for the Salve'
of Others, Rem. -14.7-21. Golden'
Text, Rom. 14.21.
Verse 7. The verses selected', as
the basis for our temperance lesson
to -day are a part only of a longer
passage (Rom. 14. 1 to 15. .6) in
which the apostle Paul discusses
the broader' thence of Christian
toleration, or the relationship be-
tween the strong and the weak in
faith. In preceding chapters hip
has spoken'of Christian _sacrifice,
of the relation df the Christian dis-
ciple .to others not of the faith; he
hat discussed . such subjects,; as
Christian vengeance, the relation
between the church and the state,
the one great obligation of every,
Christian disciple, and the law of
love. In this chapter lie proceeds
to exhort ,those who have grasped
the fuller meaning: of the Christian
faith that they condemn not their
fellow Christians who are still
bound by detailed rules relating to
food and drink and the observance
of certain days. He has urged up-
on his readers the necessity of each
one, --becoming ` established in his
own mind with regard to essentials
and nonessentials of daily conduct.
He points out that it is to 'Christ
alone that each will be responsible,
and proceeds in the verses of our
lesson passage to exhort once more
against censoriousness, adding also
an exhortation to those strong in
faith that they place no obstacles
in the way of their weaker fellow -
Christians.
None of us livetli to himself -
Every life is lived in relation, none
in isolation.
8. Unto the Lord --The apostle
is thinking of the relationship of
every human life to the divine life,
rather 4han to other human lives.
10. But thou -Thou fault-finder.
The judgment -seat of, God -His
immediate presence, in which all
things become manifest.
12. So then -This verse belongs
properly with verses 1-11, to which
longer passage it forms a conclu-
sion. Personal responsibility, the
apostle has pointed out, should be
a sufficient reason for consistency
of action in one's own life and char-
ity towards others.
13. Let us not therefore judge -
The apostle includes himself with
those to whom more especially the
letter is written. We note again
the broad and general character of
his argument:
This rather -There is a "higher
principle of action than that of
discovering, the error in another's
life, and that is the exercising of.
great care that no man put a sttnn-
blingblock in his brother's way.
14. Nothing is unclean in itself -
The apostle is thinking of the cere-
monial law and of the foods and
'4 drinks, the meats and wines, of -

CO31MIS SIONER OF CUSTOMS.
John. McDougald interprets the.
Cnstouts Tariff.
Tariff making is of immense'im-
portance to the industries of the
country; jiut only less so is tariff
interpretation. We had a striking
example of this in the case of the.
rates on Partly dressedlumber -a:'
short time ago. A change in inter-
pretation made in the •winter' -of
1911-12 transferred a whole class -of
lumber --from the free to the duel;
able list. Every little while 4 list
of tariff decisions is handed down
which means more or less taxation
for some, industry; and these are all
matters of interpretation. The
Man who, under the supreme ttu-
thority of the. Minister of Customs,
is in charge of the branch of the
service which makes these -interpre-
tations is Mr. John McDougald,
Commissioner of Customs ,and can-
ny :Scot..
The lumber case mentioned illus-
trates strikingly the responsibilities
which deputy. Ministers have to
bear and the'high respect' in which
Commissioner McDonald is held.
When the issue was raised in the
House the Minister of Customs at
once made the defence that the de-
cision was the work of the, Boards
of Customs, of which Mr. McDou-
gald was head. It was, he.argued,
merely a simple interpretation of
the letter of the statute; and as
evidence of its good faith he cited
the approval of John McDougald,
who had been Commissioner and
head of the Customs Board
throughout the Liberal regime. In
the end, it will be remembered, the
case was taken to the courts and
the new interpretation was set
aside.5 The point I wish to make
here ik that Mr. McDougald is the
man who had to bear the responsi-
bility for the interpretation. Of -
course, that made no ill -feeling be-
tween him and his old Liberal
friends, because they know that the
real responsibility rested on the
Minister of Customs himself.

Subjects taught by expert instructors considered as improper articles of

these things need not in themselves
be defiling or wg'ong.
Save that to him who accounteth
anything to be unclean -Only if a
man believes that a certain course:
of action is wrong, and is com-
pelled by the opinion and practice
of his fellows to do violence to his
own conscience, lie commits sin.
15. Destroy not with thy meat
him for whom Christ died -A spe-
cial application of the general prim-
e ciple announced in verse 13; that
none should give another occasion
for stumbling.
16. Your good -The course of ac-
tion concerning which you yourself
are persuaded that it is right. Con-
sent to adopt another course rather
than have others' look upon you as
one who is doing wrong continu-
ally..

duct, and together with those things
whereby Christians ma- - edify one
another, can be considered only
after the occasions for friction and
misunderstanding have been re-
moved,

John McDougald has had a re-
markable Career in the public ser-
vice. He was one of the officials
appointed by the Tupper" adminis-
tration just before it went out of
office after its short tenure in 1896.
He was appointed in May and Sir
Wilfrid Laurier came into office in
July. Hon. William Paterson was
given control of the Customs and
he, left Mr.. McDonald at his Post..
In its result the commissioner, al
though appointed by a moribund
and unfriendly administration, was
true to the new men who had re-
ceived the confidence'of the people.
Paterson and McDonald wore soon
working together as fast friends,
and their mutual confidence was
never shaken to the end. Once
more the commissioner has new
seena change of Ministry ; and
once more the confidence of Minis-
ter and of commissioner.` is. mutual.
This time the Minister is a political
friend- of Mr. McDongand's old poli-
tical 'allies; but that makes no clif-
ference to this faithful public -offi-
cer. He was loyal to the Liberal's,
he is loyal to the Conservatives, but
he is no more.
