Goldin Taxi—“Wina is a mockor, atronfl drink Is raQlnp."— Provirbs 20s 1.-
By DR. GEORGE A. BEATTIE.
To fully understand Paul’s letter to the
Galatians, we must know something nl»out
the persons to whom It was addressed, nud
why It was written.
The Gnlntlans were tho descendants of a
rare Which had migrated, or been driven,
from France to what was known as Phrygia
In Asia Minor.
In his second missionary tour Paul had
visited Galatia, was detained there by sick
ness, and gained many converts, whom he
visited again In bis third circuit, and who
lH>eame greatly attached to him. But they
were a fickle, volatile, mercurial people,
like the French today. Paul tells them: “At
first ye did run well. - What did hinder ye?“
But with Paul gone they were ready to
follow some one else.
There had ItecQ contentions and strifes
among them over their different views of
ie gospel and Christian living.
Paul heard of their defection and divi
sions, and so he wrote this letter, accord
ing to Llghtfoot, abou) B ‘
A. D. from Cor*
as Hammy ami McOlffert think,
frmn Antioch, Just before the second mis
sionary journey, A. I>. 62.
In It he seeks to establish the true view
of the gospel, as the gospel of liberty, of
freedom from human institutions, ritualistic
observances, from legnllsni, from the Indul
gence of fleshly appetites aud passions and
ur*“
. It might be called the epistle of freedom.
V.. .1 -I .I. I. this
No less than elcron times, and In this
connection more often than In all the other
epistles put together, the thought occurs:
’•Stand fast In the liberty wherein Cnrlst
has made us frse.
Some one has said: “The epistle to tbs
Galatians liecame to Luther s weapon for
tho emancipation of mankind."
It Is rmsnrlpatlon from everything that

What it Costa.
The amonnf of money thnt Is annually
more than wanted for drink Is almost In
credible. According to Tho American
Grocer, the drink Hill of the United States
I. over a billion dollars; more than the
bonded Indebtedness of, the government,
•nd, exclusive of th. po.t.1 .yatem, al
moat three time. th. yearly expenditures.
A good deal la said about a btlllon-dollar
congress, lint nothing I. said about a till
non dollar whisky traffic. Now, If we mid
to this amount tha loss the country sus
tains In destroying labor. In supporting
paupers, and prosecuting criminals, the
amount wonld bh fabulous.
