It would not be becoming in me to eacof all, because Z should by this offend and grieve many weak minds.—Clarlee. Though it may be admitten that it is strictly lawful to eat meats o'ffered to idols, yet there are strong reasons why it 18 inexpedient, and those reasons ought to bare the binding force of law.—Barnes. Not ex- pedient—And so, being unprofitable and injurious, may thereby become unlawful. Whedon. Edify not—AU things do uot tend to build up the cross of Christ, and therefore are not expedient. 24, His own ---Let no man consult his own'happiness, pleasure or convenience, but let Mtn eel what will be, for the pod of others. "No rule is laid down about eating or not eating any kind of food as a. matter of importauee in itself. With such things the goepel has no concern. WItat Paul does prescribe relates to the effect of our conduct upon others."—Cam. 131b. "Let every man live not for himself, but for every part a the gyeat human fam- ily with which he Is suerounded."— Clarke. Another's wealth—"But eacb hbr teighbor's good,."—R. V. This Neill' eauee true nappiness. If Tney of guarding the week ire. . le aente Of t d secrifit es were often exposed of h.ao in the markets especially by the ptieste, when they had on band a surplus. To the Christian this was as lawful as any • other meat.—Whedon. Shambles— The meat stalls fit the market. Asking no question—The Jews were vexed with in- numerable seruples with respect to their eating and were accustomed to ask many questions about their food, as to where it was obtained, bow prepared, etc., all of these scruples and questionings the got>. pet abolished. The conscience need not be sensitive on this point. 20. Earth is the. Lord's—See Psa. xxiv. 1. This meat belongs to the Lord and is made for man's use. 'It does not be- lo»g, to the idol even though it bas been offered to it. It may therefore be path taken of as Cod's gift." 27. Bid feast—This refers to a feast in pri- vate house. In verses 11-22 the apostle severely rebukes the practice of eating at feasts in heathen temples, beca.uee this was one part of idolatrous worship, If a pagan friend invite a. Christian to his home to dine he should eat what is set before him without vexing his host with questions about his feed. But there is nothing Isere commanded -which would require a person to eat or drink that which is harmful. *8. Say unto you—That iss if one of your fellow guests should display scru- ples of conscience. or a heathen should be likely to draw the inference that yoa unproved of idol worship, this altoge- ther alters tbe eaee. You are no longer Amply eating with thankfulness the food set before you as the gift of Cod, but the question of idolateous worship is now introduced. Your conduct may • lead another to suppose that yea re- garded participation m the worship of idols as permissible to a Christian.— LOun. Bib. 29. For why, etc.—This verse and the next are a little obscure. The meanie°. seems to be that "no man has a right ets interfere with the liberty en- joy -al by another, :save so far as his own toneelence and conscientious convictions are likely to be affected thereby." We • must guard the point of yielding to an- otbern conseience, for we may by obey- ing a nsates false consciente confirm lus self-conceit. or establieh a false moral- tiy. 30. H I by grace—"1f I partake with thaniefuntess."—R. V. 111, The correct rule of eonduct 31. Eat, or drink—"The glory of God is to be the end of all our aetions. In themselves eating and drinking are things indifferent; but there are melon - stances in which they may he mattere of the highest importance. In our own day, for instance, the montion of tieing or abstaining from intoxieating liquors is one which ought to be dealt- with on the eame prim:10es which Paul has laid clown in this chapter. Such a. queetion should be deeided on one ground alone. namelyr whether by nettles them or nb- staining- from them we Shall best pro- mote the glory of God."—Liae. Do all— This requires that eve-ehould plan and order our whole life in areerdanee with God's. law." Glory of God—To live tu God's glory should be the .high aim of every individual. This is a sufficient rule to regulate eneasyernatinoenteenieireee. and practise on all different things where there are no express commands to. nrobibitione.h—Clarke. 32. Give none offence—See R. V. "Though you may be no better or wore for eating meat or not. eating, yet if nour eonduct injurer others and leads tbeen into sin you should abstain entire- ly. 4t is far more important that your brother should not be led into sin than that noir should partake of meat which you acknowledge is in itself of no im- portance." This is it general principle whieh should regulate Christian conduct at alt times. Though you are delivered from euperstitioris notions, it is con- trary to the spirit of love to hinder an- other whir is not yet so far enlightened.

Monereal,,Now 12,—A good deal of in- dignation bas been aroused over the fact that on Thursday night a gang of ruf- fians, headed by a number of Leval stu- dents, violently interferen with a Pro- testaut missionary meeting in Maisou. neuve. It is said. that Evangelist Mtge narrowly escaped serious injury. Le Canada published an account of the affair, and for its pains was subject- ed to an uncomplimentary demonstra- tion in front of its offices. In view of these two occurrences Hon. Justice Ms. thiett, dean of the law faculty of Laval University, addressed the stadents as follows: "As I am your friend I can and I must take the liberty to say to you things which you will perhaps find disagreeable. I regret that you, French-Canadian students, living under the protection of the British flag, shotdd hey° seen fit. to go and prevent a lec- turer from freely expressing Isis views.
