Preeeixte abottt. jatcie,- ing (vs. 1=6). 1. Judge not -No man to capable of pawing correct judgment upon the motives an'tl•eonduc6L of others, We. are forbidden to liars irre\ oiable judgment and to impute wrong motives in the case of others, We are constantly terming opinions respecting the conduct of others and making our estimates of their character from what we see in their lives, for "by their fruits ye shall know them" (v. 20), but we must not sit in judgment upon their motives. That ye be not judged -God judges righteously and by His condemnation of men is ever just. "No mercy shall be shown to the reputation of those Who show no mercy to the reputation of oth- ers."-Henry. thhers."$enry. 2. Mete -To measure, or judge. Measured to you again -Judg- ment shall be ,passed upon ns sirnilae to the judgment which we pass upon oth- ers. Haman was hanged upon the gal- lows whioh he had wickedly erected for the execution of Mordecai. 3, ]3eholdest -To look intently, to strain the eyes to see. Thou -The one who judges an- other. Mote -A tiny chip or splinter, of the saute material as the beam. Beam " -"A log, joist or rafter." The man with a great beam in his eye, who therefore can see" nothing accurately, proposes to remove the little splinter from his bro- ther's eye; a delicate operation, requir- ing clear sight. -Vincent. Why behold - est thou the infirmities, the mistakes, the imprudence, the weakness of the children of God, but considerest not the beam of pride, self-will, and love of the world which are in thyself -Wesley. 4. How wilt thou say -Mark the unrea- sonableness of such a suggestion. nose who judge others most severely are in- clined to judge themselves most mildly. "The mote which might be overlooked is looked for; the beam of which one must be conscious is not considered." •--wc'haff. Men are more apt to use spectacles than looking-glassce,., spectacles to behold other men's faults rather than looking -glasses to behold their own. - Trapp. 5. Thou hypocrite -A name ex- pressive of contempt, applied to one who professes to be what he is not. Fast cast out the beam Through repentance, confession and faith in God become rid of the beam of sin. See clearly to cast out the mote -With one's spiritual vision restored through grace, he is able with charity, compassion and love to aid oth- ers in correcting their faults. 6. Give not that which is holy -Refer- ence is made to sacrificial flesh. Dogs - These 'beasts were unclean to the jews, 'and were despised. They were 11airtiaild, without owners, and were tolerated as seav•engers of the cities. No person ceremonially unclean was permitted to eat the sacrificial meat, much less 'would it be fitting to give it to the dogs. While we are forbidden to judge others, we are to use reason in dealing with men. The preeious truths of the Gospel will be spurned by some classes of ungodly peo- ple, while others will treat them with respect. Pearls before swine -Pearls re- present that which is value:hie and desir- able; swine stands for that which is un- clean and vile. Jesus was addressing a congregation of Jews to wham both dogs and swine were objects of loathing. "Two classes of opposers are mentioned: the dogs representing the unclean, debased; summing up of the �ateeepts that have Coughs, Colds already:bee:t ore„. recepe is the stmt of the Ton Conttnandropets, so the Gold- If end Rule t�1 would that tarn iMN �I I rice �ti hatboevet y should do to you of out dealia,l, with others. We are w If there is an ailment in the throat or chest, it is surely - essen- tial that the remedy be conveyed direct to .the affected part.. It's because. the healing vapor of Catarrh - ozone is `breathed. into. the sore, irri- tated throat and bronchial tubes, be- cause its balsamic fumes kill the germs and destroy the cause of the trouble. These are the rea- sons why Catarrh - ozone never yet fail- ed to cure a genuine case of Catarrh, Asthma, Bronchitis or Throat Trouble. The wonderfully - soothing vapor of Ca- tarrhozone instantly reaches the furthest recesses of the lungs, produces a healing, curative effect that is impossible with a tablet or. liquid, which goes merely to the stomach, and fails entirely to help the throat or lungs. To permanently cure your win- ter ills, your coughs, sneezing, 'and Catarrh, by all means use a tried and proven remedy like Ca- tarrhozone. But beware of the substitutor and imitator. Look for Catarrhozone only, 50c and $1, at all dealers. OWES TIER LIFE T Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Vienna, W. Va.- "I feel that I owe the last ten years of my life to Ldia E.

Temperance applications. -The law .of love, which is the basis of the Golden Rule, forbids both the use of the poison alcohol as a beverage and the traffic in the same. No maty- has the right to make, himself an occasion of grief to an- other. Hewho drinks either moderate- Iy or to excess violates the law of love:. He has not proper respect for himself, 'nor has he love for those who are inter- ested in him. The drunkard stns against his own •soul. and body, too; he also sins against his family and the community. At the door of the liquor traffic may be laid three-fourths of the crime of the nation, one-half or more of the insanity, and the greater part of the poverty ex- isting among us. The law of love says to the drinker, "Steep!" to the liquor dealer, "Stop;" to the brewer and dis- tiller, "Stop: The respectable citizen says to the drunkard, "Why do you make a fool of yourself with drink? let me help you to reform." "All right," says the drunk- ard, "but you voted to keep the saloons open in this town, did you not?" An- other case of "mote" and -beam." Temperance people have recourse to prayer. fiAsk, and it shall be given you," is a word of encouragement to those who are working for the over- throw of the liquor power. God is an- swering prayer, and prohibition senti- ment is spreading. We may 'be casting our pearls before swine when we attempt to reform rum - soaked politicians, bq we can reach the children through temperance instruction. This work will tell in the years to come. Questions -Give reasoli, why it is wrong to judge others. How will he who judges be judged'? Explain the il- lustration of the note and the beam. What moral quality is represented by dogs? By swine? What is meant by casting •pearls before swine? What three words are used in the lesson that mean "to pray ?" What is a father will- ing to do fair his so,,a ?u„145J is- God will- ing td do fir us'Y .4-sse s rt Milli fthiel'hs in our treatment of others? What law does -the liquor drinker violate? and the swine, like wild boars, the fierce and bitter opponents." -Trench. In im- parting the official trusts and the truths of the Gospel, we must discern men's moral qualities, and deal with them ac- cordingly: Whed n. Trample them un- der their feet ---This has reference to the i,wine. Turn again and rend --The dogs take this course. "There are na- tures so brutal as to render angry re- sponse for gentle suggestion; and to meet the Gospel with persecution." IL Directions regarding prayer (vs. 22 11). + 7. Ask ... seek .. knock- The first of these verbs implies simple peti- tion; the second, earnest desire; the third, perseverance.' The first implies that what we need can be obtained only by free gift; the second, that it has been lost; the third, that it hiss been shut up. -Schaff. The three words form a climax. To ask implies conscious need with an effort to have it supplied:; to seek indicates action in addition to asking; to knock shows more persever- ing action and calling upon another for help. 8. Asking receiveth-A promise is here given. All who with sincerity, earnestness and faith ask of God receive answers. The blessing will be bestowed as God sees best for the petitioner. Seeketh findeth-The godlikeness that was lost will be found by the earnest seeker. Opened -The door of entrance into the kingdom will open to him who sincerely knocks for admittance. No soul that prays as God has directed can pray in vain. 9, What man is there of you- The Master introduces an illustration which appeals to the tenderest sentiment of the human heart, parental love. No father would refuse to satisfy the need of his child, if it lay in his power. The Oriental loaf resembled itt some degree the stone in appearance, but the father would not make the mistake of giving a stone for bread. "God may do more for us than we ask or think, but never. less. If we ask a stone, thinking it bread, as men often do, God will give us the bread and not the stone." 10. A fish -A very common and wholesome article of food. Serpent -The father would be very careful to keep from his child that which would injure it, even if he could not supply that which was wholesome. .11. Being evil -The race of man is evil, having gone far away from God. Even those who have become the children of God are liable to mistakes and errors of judgment. The comparison is between the perfect, the holy Father and the earthly father. Know how to give good gifts --Instinct and parental love dictate the course to pursue. A man may be rough and wicked, yet he desires the welfare of his child. How much more shall your Father ,... give good things -Earthly parents do not neglect the wants of their children according to the flesh. Much more will a God of love and mercy attend' to the cries of his cltilcren by grace. -Ryle. Parents, how- ever loving and able they may be, are liable to give their children things that, it is `found later, were not good for them. Love prompted the gifts, but they were unwisely bestowed. Our heavenly Father gives wisely. He makes no mistakes. His gifts are always good. Here is an unanswerable argument aihat God hears Iiis children when they pray and grants their petitions. Termin els- III. The practise of the Golden Rule (v. 12 12. therefore -His word introduces the FAMOUS DOCTOR'S PRESCRIPTION. -so IF ty R eEPSI4 ATARRH OF STOMP connected, which I believe as well as they." Judging is preeumptuous. "Why dost thou judge thy brother?..we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ" (Rom, 14. 109. Judging is Christ's work, not ours. We usurp his work when we judge another to be bi- goted, wrong or wicked because he dif- fers from us in the non -essentials, in which each is commanded to "be fully persuaded in his own mind" (Rom. 14. 5). Judging leads to cruelty. In the wake of forbidden judgment follows denunci- ation, exclusion, persecution, death. This judgment was the mother of the Inquisition. It lighted the Smithfield fires. It is the cause of many a heart- ache and bitter regret. PRACTICAL APPLICA9'IONS. Judging is forbidden. "Judge not, that ye be not judged" (v. 1; Luke 6. 37). Fault-finding, magnifying motes, loking for evil, criticizing and condem- ning are forbidden. We are forbidden to judge the motives of men, "the liid- denthings..the counsels of the herat" (1 Cor. 4. 5); forbidden to judge `ac- cording to appearance" (John 7. 24, R. V.) ; forbidden to judge one another for not keeping Jewish ordinances (Col. 2. 16); forbidden to judge as regards eat- ing. or drinking or service (Rom. 14, 3, 4) ; forbidden to "judge after the flesh" ' (J'ohn. 8. 15). One question honestly an- swered will keep us from judging any one unkindly or censoriously. Can I be sure that 1, educated as he has been, having the same natural disposi- tion and tendencies, exposed to the same influences and temptations, would not be far worse than he? Judging is arrogance. "Who art thou that judgest another?" (Rom. 14. 4; James 4. 12). Are you infallible? Is there no possibility that you are mis- taken? that your brother may have some truth you have not? If you make the measure of your convictions the measure of the motives of others, you sin against them and against God. "1 have learned," says F. W. Robertson, "that where good men have clung to a superstition; a form, or a narrow, mis- erable view, it is for the sale of some deep truth with which it seems to stand INVIGORATING TONIC FOR RUN-DOWN PEOPLE Your blood has become thin a'Iid weak. The drain upon your system the past few months has been veryrcat. You are con- sequently feeling "all out of sorts" and "run down."

Montreal despatch: Wm. Masson, a special constable, was to -day fined $30 and deprived of his license by Recorder Weir for forcing his attention on a young woman. Last night he got drunk and then attacked Miss Louise Gauthier, a waitress, as she was leaving her place of work. Seizing her roughly by the shoulder, he flashed his badge in the girl's face, telling her that she was un- der arrest and must come with him. For two hours he kept the girl walking the streets, at times threatening her with his revolver, and finally at 1.30 a. m. Constable Burke happened to be pass- ing a dark street and heard the girl screaming for help. He hurried up and arrested the man, who had torn her coat badly by this time. SUFFERED FOR SIX LONG YEARS Then Dodd's Kidney Pills Cured Mrs. Richard's Diabetes. Her Rheumatism Also Vanished When Dodd's Kidney Pills Put Her Kidneys in Condition to do Their Work. East Chezzetccok, ITalifax Co., N. S., Feb, 10. -(Special.' --Cured of Diabetes and Rheumatism from which she had suffered for six years. Mrs. Boniface Richard, well known here, is joyfully telling her neighbors that she owes her health to Dodd's Kidney Pills and to no other cause. "My Rheumatism and Diabetes were brought on by a cold and a strain. naso though I was attended by a doctor lie could not help me. After suffering for six years I made up my mind to try Dodd's Kidney fills. and to my surprise they did ane good almost at once. Two boxes cured me completely. I recom- mend them to everybody as a sure cure for Diabetes, Backache and all other Kidney Diseases." Dodd's Kidnel: Pills cured Mrs. Rieh- ard's Diabetes because Diabetes is a Kidney Disease, and Dodd's Kidney Pills cure all Kidney Diseases. Mrs. Richard's Ikheuntatism was caused by her diseased Kidneys failing to take the uric add out of her blood. When her Kidneys were cured they strained the uric acid out of her blood and her Rheumatism vanished. SL \r/US tt uisbe.cs., r,,rn....,.o ,..a ,. _, .......... ss...-.
