Golden Text.—We •will, drink no wine, —Jer. 35:6. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING. Time.—About B.C. 600. Place., Jerusalem. JEREMIAH'S OBJECT LESSON, "And I set before the sons of the house uof the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups," -The bowls were large vessels full of wine,in to which the cups were dipped. "And I said unto them, Drink ye wine,' -The ha- bit of treating coptributed perhaps more than anything else to the spread of drunkenness, and to the popularity of •the saloon. The abolishing of treating, and the requirement that no liquor sold may be drunk on the premises, is a long step toward pro- hibition; but such a law is. very dif- ficult to enforce; in many places it is impossible of enforcement. "But they said, We will drink no wine." Here are no apologies; no weak "I'm on .the water wagon just now by my doctor's advice"; just a flat refusal such as the offer called WINGHAM ADVANCE.TIM "Thursday, June 6th, 1929 for. For Jonadab, the son of Re- chab, our father."—This jonadab (Jonadib) is the xtian who helped Jehu overthrow the 'iniquitous wor- ship of Baal .and the evil House of. Ahab; .see 2 Kings 10;15-28. This took place nearly three eenteries be- fore, so that "father" here means "an- cestor." "Commanded ris, Saying, Ye shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your sons, for ever. "The reason for. the command .doubtless was the car- rttption and exc.essi which he saw to be engendered and fostered by city. life. Thus the customs of towns were to :be avoided, and an ascetic life to be followed, strongly resembling that practised within the limits of Israel by. the Nazarites (Num; 6)." "Neither, shall ye build house:" They were to be free to move about wherever the pasturage for their cat- tle was best. "Nor sow seed, ' nor plant vineyards, not have any."—The possession of farms and vineyards would tie then to one place. Per- haps they lived, as John the Baptist did, on wild fruit wild honey, insects like locusts, and other food easily ob- tained and at no cost. They were to reduce to the minimum all the ma- terial requirements of life, that they might preserve their independence and liberty, We need not go to their extreme in order to adopt the wise fundamentals of their mode of living. Whatever we can save fromthe low- 'er, physical wife to put in, to the high- er, mental and spiritual life is clear 44r1q41414.0ill.$ FORD. CAR. HO AI LLE' HYDRAULIC SH • CK ABSORBERS Positive Sio th f7 Dude i — C?LTDAILLE Hydraulic Shock Absorbers, four to every Ford car, are entirely defensive in, their action since they remain inactive and in neutral position on smooth roads. Let a wheel encounter the :. slightest depression or bump; however, and they respond with the velvet precision of'a cat's paw. ;. Houdaille Shock Absorbers were not adapted to the Ford car after it was built, but were part of the sped.. ficadorts laid down by the Ford engineers as they planned the car. Therefore, Hou.dailles, their power✓ ful operation coordinated, becatne integral. parts of the complete chassis. It is for this reason that they function with such perfect efficiency an. the Ford. ca: ; Roudailies absorb both the upward and dovvnwarct thrust of the shock through slowing the spring action, by means' of a heavy glycerine solution, which is forced through a small valve from one compartment. to another. They check the' rebound of the car softly, evert no tension on the springs and are always, ready to over resistance to the blow when and as required. In fact, the more severe the shock,the iuore effectively foudailies operate. Different from any other shock absorber, the Houdaille connecting link between the frame and the axle of the car is a steel arm, not just a fabric strip to wear but and be replaced. Adjustable to suit differing road conditions and various loads, the Houdaille: is more than a shock absorber and more than a snubber„ Inspect" the Ford car carefully part by part.

"But all your days AC i,1_. ye shall dwell in tetats,"—For their O. day and in their warm' climate tent- L dwelling were most healthful and en- joyable, and we Canadians, inrecent years, have found that as near an approach to tent -life as possible in our vacations strengthens and re- freshes us wonderfully, and adds to El our years. "That ye may live many N days in the land wherein ye sojourn." -`Sojourn" implies temporary living, migrations from place to place. "In these words we may perhaps trace an echo of the fifth Cotntnandnent (Ex. 20:12), viewed as extending to the re- lations which connect the members of an order with its head,"—Dean E. H. Plumptre, "And we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, opr fa- ther, in all that he -charged as."— " Probibitons , almost identical with these were Laid 'upon the Nabatae- ans, not in their case from religious motives, but in order' that their, pov erty night free them from fear of the covetousness of powerful neigh- bors. The Bedouins of the present day consider it an unworthy thing to engage in agriculture or handicrafts. and this feel trib may date fromsine-- flier r t-iiarancestral prohibitions. The ' in- stinct which prompts nomads to be suspicious: of higher types of civiliza- tion is a true one, and inspired, con- sciously or unconsciously, by the de- sire for S'611 -preservation." --L. Elli- ott Binns. "To drink` no wine all our. days, we, our wives, our sons, or our daughters''—Strong drink works un- speakable harm to all members of the fancily. it takes away the father's self-respect and his ability to ° sup - Port the family. It renders the wife less capable of performing the duties, of a mother and of caring `for the household. It takes the young ,peo- ple in their formative years, stunts their growth physically and mentally, and ruins their chances in rife. For all members of the fancily it des- troys their spiritual nature, . and, brings ahem below the level'of the "Nor to build 'houses, - etc." -And this in spite of the example of por- tions of ` the tribe that settled' down to a life in houses and on farms, and in spite, of all the temptations to a more comfortable and profitable ex- istence. All this made their act a real obedience, the choice of a higher good as against the lower. "But we have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed, etc."—Dean Stanely gives the following illustration of Bedouin obedience to the command of an ancestor: "We passed a carin, said to be the grave of the horse of Abu Zenneh, his horse killed in bat- tle, Who Abu Zenneh was — when he lived—what the battle was -is quite unknown; but lie left an ordin- ance that every Arab should throw sand on the' cairn as if it were barley, and say, `Eat, eat, 0 horse of Abu Zcnneh,' as if the dead' creature were still alive. So said our Bedouin, and accordingly each Arab muttered the words and pushed the sand twice or thrice with his foot as he passed'. I could not help thinking of the:Rech- abites, as described by Jeremiah." "But it came to pass, when Nebu- chadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land."-Nebuchadrezzar is a form of Nebuchadnezzar. His father, NabopolaSsar, headed a Babylonian revolt against Assyria, succeeded in the attempt, and. founded the Baby-. lcnian empire in B.C. 625. "That we said, Come, ` and let us go. to Jeru- salem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans."—It was a real emergency, excusing the Rechabites temporarily from obedience to Jonadab's com- mands. Chaldea was originally the southern portion of ' Babylonia, but "Chaldeans"' came' to designate all the `' Babylonians. "Andfor fear of the army of the Syrians; so we dwell at .Jerttsalem."—Tlte. Syrians fought on the side of the Egyptians in the battle of Carchemish, batt now they were compelled to fight for the Chal• deans, "Clue".
