the fifth eochmrcrnanesdineptae asrega'heading;
the second -table,. The reason for
this has been chiefly that this divi-
sion seemed to make the amount of.
writing on the two tables, more
nearly equal. It has been defend-
ed also en the ground that the cern-
mandment itself -is moral rather'
.than religious," referring to a duty
-toward :others rather than toward'
`God. In ancient times respect for
parents was more a matter of re-
ligibus obligation. Hence the
earliest grouping of the command-
ments was, "1 to V, religious du-
duti
ties"es."and "VI to X, moral
That thy days may lee long in the
land which Jehovah thy God giveth
thee—If we are to think of a sim-
pler original .form for this coin-
mandment, this attached reason for
obedience may perhaps be a later
amplification. The, wording of the
commandment -: in Deuteronomy
reads: "Honor thy father and thy
mother, as Jehovah thy God com-
manded thee; that thy days may
be long, and ,bhat it may go well
with thee, in the lani1 which Jeho-
vah thy God giveth thee" (Deut. 5.
16), Here the original command of
Jehovah and the later reason of
expediency are separated by the
intervening explanatory clause "as
Jehovah thy God commanded
thee," which seems to point speci-
fically to afit earlier more succinct
command to filial obedience.
13. Thou shalt not kill—An ap-
preciation of the, sanctity of the
human life necessarily precedes a
sense of other deities and obliga-
tions to our fellow men, Hence
the moral precept of this com-
mandment is, as we should expect,
incorporated in all ethical codes
which man has put into perman-
ent, written form.
14, 15. Not commit adultery—
Next to one's regard for the life
of his neighbor is his respect for
family ties, and this in turn natu-
rally leads to a recognition of the
rights of personal ownership of all
things belonging to a family
household. The next 'command-
ment is, therefore, against steal-
ing.,
16. Bear false witness -The com-
mandment as it stands refers pri-
marily. to outright falsehood and
perjury. It does not, however, ex-
clude private calumny, or the more
ttbtle habit of evil speaking
against op ;g neighbor, Later on
n the detailed legislation given by
M
poses' to Israel the latter is speci-
cally forbidden in the words:,
'Thou' shalt not take up a false re_
ort: put not thy hand with the
wicked to be an unrighteoua wit-
ness" (Exod. 23. 1).
17. Thou shalt not covet --In un-
ertaking to regulate a man's' in-
er thought life : as well as his
uter life of action the Mosaic law
laces itself on a higher level than
ny other' system of laws, ancient
✓ modern: The Deealogue, and
specially this commandment, pro-
eeds on the •aesumption that man
s actually, free to control his
houghts, ;and hence is responsible
or them as -well as for his actions.
Thy neighhor's house—If the
ord "hoose" be taken' generical -
y, then the: first clause of this cotti-
andment •may be taken to cover
he entire prohibition intended,
he following specific things, such
s wife, servant, ox, and ass, beteg
dded 'simply as exemplifying all
sat which Is to be' understood un-
er the weld "house." Hence also
e concluding phrase, ''nor any -
big that is thy neighbor's " in
e Deuterdnomic version of the
nmandinent the ;order is slightly
fferent, the eommandmetlt read -
g, ``Neither shalt thou. covet thy
eighbor's wife ; neither shalt thou
esire ' thy neigh'bor's house, his
Id, or his than -servant, or his
aid -eon -ant, his ex, or his oma, or
tybhiug; that is thy neighbor's "

ion of William Law,. that even the
unmusical should ,ting im ohuroh,
and confessed that "Law's position
is in the main sound." "All wall
agree," eays the Laureate, "that
hymns aro-'that part of the church
music in which itis most degarable
that the eon:gregation should join
in," but he motes that "whew, peo-
ple are musical they would ratifier
listen, and when they are unmusi-
cal they would rather sing."
Dr. Bridges thinks it safer to hold
with Law that a`singing is a general
talent" than to reserve the music
of the sanctuary for professional
performers, The author of "A
Serious Call" need these' words:
"If a person were to forbear pray-
ing beeatsee he had an odd tone in
his voice, he would have as good an
excuse on he that forbears .from
singing because he has but little
management of his voice;"

to the story told by the prophet: In
the 'midst -of the great. battle be-
tween Ahab and Bonbadael this ser-
vant'had been ordered to stand
guard over. a; man who , had just
been seized from the host of the
enemy. This captive was'so 'fm-
•portant a person that •the Icing's
servant had been' told that "if by
any` means he be,misting, then 'shall
thy life be for his life; or else thou
shaltpaya talent of it "
s -er. And
yet, in spite of the fact that this
soldier was taken crit of the line
of battle and time relieved of every
other responsibility, in. order that
"this one thing" he ?nigh,t,do yitte-,
•out' fail, he had -to realm the humili-
ating -confession when the conflict
was over that' his prisoner had es-
caped. "As thy servant was bug
here and there, he was gone."
Here is a parable.; of• the life of
man, if there ever was„one, aspeci-
ally 'in this age' of exhausting con=
fusion and distraetioe I Unless we
are wholly deceived in our interpre-
tation of existence, God has set us

to fulfil the ideals of the spirit, to
be perfect as spiritual beings even
as `our Father which is in heaven
is perfect.” And yet here we are
wholly absorbed with'a hundred ural
one things of earth which have lit-
tle or nothing to do' with, the faith-
ful performance of this duty. We
are' .anetious. about, what we shall
eat and what we shall drink ' and
wherewithal we shall be clothed.
We seek money and more money.
still l We are taken up with busi-
ness which leads only to more busi-
ness, and lose ourselves in pleasure
which gives place only to the quest
for more pleasure. We accumulate
houses and lands and servants and
flocks anti herds, only to find our-
selves possessed by our possessions.."

while the "one thing needful"—the

We; are "busy here and there;" and, .'
when our soul is demanded' of us, as

He woe bstsy enough. But it was

"busy" that he failed to fulfil the
duty laid upon him.
And so With Ourselves To -they.
We are so engaged with the :things"
of earth thalt we have no time to
"lift our eyes unto the hills, whence,

What doth such a victory profit a
man? The important thing in life,
after all, is not so do. but to be, or
better . still, to do, 11 order to be.
To do and nothing more is to stalk
a treadmill leading nowhere. To
do for the sake of bring is to march
upon the King's highway to the
heavenly city shining in the dis-
tance. "The best end of a mail's

workers bequeath as nothing so

When Little Bear Went Sailing.
Once upon a time, when Father
Bear was dozing in his big chain,
and Mother Bear was picking the
garden blackberries, Little Bear
started towards the river, which
ran back of the house. • •
"Where are you going 2" asked
Bother Bear, as Little Bear opened
the garden gate. •
"I'm going swimming," ane-ver-
ed'a
.Bi round by Bear. Wading act nc rn
the shallow water near the, shore
was what he called ewim.niing.
Mother Beat' smiled, and kept on
picking blackberries. Little Bear
ran, hopping mid
d skippin ,, down
tae
gen path, toward the river,
Suddenly he stopped short and
peeped through the bushes,.becauso
Brother Blue Jay called; in shrill
tones, "Jay i Jay 1 Jay l" Crows,
Iikthewise, warned him not to go far -
"What can be the matter?" whis-
pered Baby Bear.
Upside -Down Bat, who has won-
derful ears, cautioned hint to be
quiet. ``HuP
sh ' said he. "There
is 'a man tying a boat to the •wil-
lowsi"
"Why, UPpy," exclaimed Little
Bear, "are you awake 'iu the day-
time 4" He spoke like that to Up-
side -Down Bat bocattso they were
old friends.
"Hush, Cutesy, • I tell you --
hush I"
The bat called Little Bear "Cub-
by" to tease him.
Out in the path danced Baby
Bear, ready fora pleasant fuss with
-his friend. -
