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 enslaves body or soul.

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.

Tl our criminal coarts, that nlne.tenths of the Crimea committed ore caused by Intox icating drinks.
