Children’s Corner. Bev. T. 0. BOTKIN, State 8. 8. Evangelist, Ed UNDEB HIS EYE. When you think, when you speak, when you read, when you write. When you sing, when you walk, when you seek for delight, To be kept from all evil al home and abroad, Live always as uuder the eye of the Lt rd. Whatever you think, both in j ty and in woe. Think nothing y,.u would not like Jesus to know; Whatever you say, in whisper or clear, Say nothing you would net like Jesus to hear. Whatever you read, though the page may allure, Read nothing ot which you are perfectly sure Consternation at once would he seen in your look If God should say suddenly: “Show me that book. ’ What-ver you write, with haste or with heed, Write nothing you would not like Jes.ua to read; Whatever you sing in the midst of yourglees, Bing nothing that God’s listening ear could dis please. Wherever you go. never go where vou fear God’s question being asked: “ If/wit dotst thou heret ' Whatever the pastime in which you engage, For the cheering of youth, or the solace of age. Turn away from each pleasure you’d shrink from pursuing. Were God to look down and say: “ What are you doing t’’ signlllkmits. I once knew a sweet little girl called Mary. Her papa was the captain of a big ship, and sometimes she went with him to sea; and it was on one of these trips that the incident of which I am going to tell you happened. One day she sat on a coil of rope watching old Jim clean the signal lamps. “What ard you doing?” she asked. “I am trimming the signal lamps, miss,” said old Jim. “What are they for?” asked Mary. “To keep other ships from running into us, miss; if we do not hang out our lights we might be wrecked.” Mary watched him for some time, and then she ran away, and seemed to forget all about the signal lights; but she did not, as was afterwards shown. The next day she came to watch old Jim trim the lamps, and after he had seated her on the coil of rope he turned to do his work. Just then the wind carried away one of the cloths, and old Jim began to swear awfully. Mary slipped from her place and ran into the cabin; but she came back and put a folded paper into his hand. Old Jim opened it, and there, printed in large letters—for Mary was too young to write—were these words: “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain ; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” » The old man looked into her face and asked: “What is this, Miss Mary?” “It is a signal light, please. I saw that a bad ship was running against you, because you did not have your signal light hung out, so I thought you had forgotten it,” said Mary. Old Jim bowed his head and wept like a child. At last he said: “You are right, missy; I had forgot ten it. My mother taught me that same commandment when I was no bigger than you; and for the future I will hang out my signal lights, for I might be quite wrecked by that bad ship, as you call those oaths.” Old Jim has a large Bible now which Mary gave him, and on the cover he has printed, “Signal Lights for Souls Bound for Heaven.” A RESOLUTE BOY. A correspondent sends us an incid ent connected with a boy of fourteen who came from a rural village to the city, invited by friends who are living in luxury, to spend his vacation with them. His firmness in declining to partake of what had brought a dark shadow upon his father’s home, may excite the smile of some who believe only in self-indulgence, but in all the circumstances it displayed a moral heroism which is worthy of all admir ation, and which should be an example to all boys who read it. It was a recent occurrence. This lad’s home afforded the luxur ies of country life, but a dark cloud rested over the household. His father had destroyed all true domestic hap piness by the use of the wine cup. No one had instructed the lad as to his course of action while in the city. At his first dinner with his friends, the customary wines were on the table. When asked to partake, with one hand upon the glass, he gave so decided a reply that no one could mistake his meaning. Not satisfied, the uncle, with his own hand presented the glass, but received the reply : “No, uncle, I cannot.” “But take some of this; it is only champagne; it will not hurt you.” The boy politely thanked his uncle for his kind intentions, but steadily refus ed. As long as he was in the city, and even when pressed by still stronger temptation at a party which was given on his account, at which wine was freely furnished, he remembered his own sad home and remained firm in hie resolution not to touch the destroy ing cup. Wine can do no good to any boy. To partake of it may lead him directly into the path of destruction. It is bet ter to stop before beginning. —.—: ► “If Yon Please.” —When the Duke of Wellington was sick, the last thing ’ he took was a little tea. On his ser- ‘ vant’s handing it to him in a saucer, 1 and asking him if he would have it, the Duke replied, “Yes, if you please.” These were his last words. How much kindness and courtesy is expressed by , them 1 He who had commanded the i - 1n—.1.1 THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, MAY 5, 1881. greatest armies in Europe, and had long need the tjne of authority, did not despise or ovetlook the courtesies of life. Ah! how many boys do! What a rude tone of command they often use to their little brothers and sisters, and sometimes to their mothers! this is ill bred and unchristian, and shows a coarse nature and a bad heart. In all your home talk remember, ‘lf you please,” to all who wait on or serve you; believe that, “If you please,” will make you better served than all the cross and ordering words in the whole dictionary. Don’t forget three little words, “If you please.” A Boy’s Faith. —Two little boys were talking together about a lesson they had been receiving from their grandmother, oh the subject of Elijah’s going to heaven in a chariot of fire. “I say, Charlie,” said George, “but wouldn’t you be afraid to ride on such a chariot?” “Why, no,” said Charlie, “I should not be afraid if I knew that the Lord was driving.” And that was the way David felt when he said, "What time I am afraid I will trust in thee.” He knew that neither chariots of fire nor anything else could hurt him, if God was present as his protector and friend.—N.

Luke XVI. 19-31.—A.D. 30. OUTLINE. I. H<re, v. 19-21. 11. Hereafter, v. 22 26. 111. Knowledge sufficient, v. 27-31, NOTES. I. Here. V. 19. “A certain rich man.” No name is given to him. He is sometimes called Dives the Latin word for “rich man.” Ha is represented here as a man satisfied with self gratification. “Clothed in purple and fine linen.” Introduced as showing the man's wealth. A combination of colors greatly prized. The purple was a woolen cloth brought from Tyre, and rendered very costly by the dye obtained in minute quan tities from shell-fish near that city. The fine linen was from Egypt, sometimes sellit g for twice its weight in gold. "Eared sump tuously. ” A devotion to sejisuai enjoyment implied. “Everyday.” Habitually. He is not accused of any outward wickedness. V- 20. “ A certain beggar. ” A sharp con trast. "Named Lazarus.” The same with Eleazar of the Old Testament, signifying God-help. Possibly the name is given as signifying the character of the man. “Laid at his gate,” by others, who either wished to rid themselves of him, or to se cure for him help from the rich man. "Full of sores." A pitiable sight. V. 21. “Desiring to be fed." The connec tion implies that the desire was not grati fied. “The crumbs.” Not the trifling frag ments which would fall from one of our ta bles, but the soft parts of the thin cakes of bread used in the East and which were fre quently thrown under the table. “The dogs came and licked his sores." The dogs dis puted the crumbs with the poor man. “The mention of the dogs licking the sores of Lizarus is meant to heighten our conception of his misery. There are two ways now of heightening this: one is to represent the dogs licking his sores as a new infliction, the other is to represent his misery as so great, that the very dogs had pity on him. The latter, which is the common view, appears at once more forcible, and more natural, to say nothing of its agreement with the effects of the touch of a dog's tongue, whose grate ful smoothness every one is acquainted with." 11. Hereafter. V. 22. “Died.” Nothing is said of his I burial. “Carried by the angels." His soul, of course. See Hebl:l4, Lev. 15:10, Marr, 13: 27. Into Abraham’s bosom.” A Jewish figure to express a state of blessedness after death. The expression is borrowed from the custom of reclining at meals in such a way that each guest rested partially on the bosoui of his nearest neighbor. To lie in Abraham's bosom expressed the higheet fe licity. “ The rich man also died. ” Wealth could not prevent it. “ Was buried. " No doubt with splendor. V. 23. “In heh’ rather Hades. The gen eral designation of the place of departed spir its. The Jews conceived of it as divided into parts, one of which they called Paradise, a place of blessedness, and the other Gehenna, a place of punishment. The rich man was in the former and Lazirm in the 1 itter. In torments. In life surrounded with pleasures ; after death overwhelmed with suilering. “ Afar off. ” He falls far short of the joy he had hoped for. V. 24. “ Father Abraham. ” He knows Abraham and pleads his relation to Idm. “ Have mercy on me. ” Perpaps his first real prayer. "Send Lazarus,” whom be had once neglected and despised. “Dipthetipof bis finger in water. ” This intense desire for a single water drop to cool his burning tongue is a vivid description of his torment. V- 25. “Son.” Abraham acknowledges the relation which the rich man had claim ed, but the relation avails him nothing now. “Remember.” That the future state is oneof consciousness is here made certain, while memmory is represented as a most terrible means of retribution. “Thy good things.” The things which he most esteemed while he rived, regardless of everything after life. “Lazarns’evil things.” It is not his evil things. They were not his rhoice, but God's providences. He bore them meekly, but sought better things in the life to come. "Comforted.” “Tormented.” A complete charge in the condition of both, founded on a radical dierffeuce in character. V. 26. “A great gulf fixed.” There can be no change. The separation is irrevocable. It is imposiole to grant the prayer of the rich man. No mercy from the region of the blessed can ever leach those in torment, nor is there any way of escape from this terrible condition.' 111. Knowledge sufficient. V. 27. “1 pray thee therefore.” This man is represented as anxious about his brothers. Perhaps he remembers that he encouraged them in their sinful lives by his own words and example. We think, however, that this request is thrown in by our Lord to enable him to give the instructions found in Abra ham's reply. V. 28. ‘ Five I rithren.” All living as he had lived. "That he may testily unto them.” An implication that he had not bad sufficient knowledge of the future state while he lived. "Lest they also come into this place.” He believed that being thus warned they would not live as he lived and so would escape his torment. He had given up all hope for himself. V. 29. "They have Moses and the prop els.” The Old Testament. Compare 2 Tim. 3:15. The Scriptures then existing were suf ficient to teach men the way to heaven. Surely then, no one who has iu addition the New Testament can be guiltless of neglect, if he does not learn the way of life. V 30. "If one went unto them from the deud they will repent." The rich man mis apprehends the whole matter. The difficul ty is not the want of evidence but a heart of unbelief. No evidence will satisfy him who is determined not to believe V. 31 "Neither will they be persuaded." Men were not by the resurrection of the Lazarus who lived at Bethany, nor did the resurrection of Jesus bimselt convince the unbelieving Jews. HELP IN TEACHING. Draw plainly tbe contrast between the two men in this life. One is very rich and the other extremely poor. One royally clothed and sumptuously fed, the other sick, in rags and sores. One seeking his happi ness in the pleasures of this world, the other looking to the hereafter for bis comfort. Show the contrast after life. Both dir. One is buried with p imp, the other is unm • liced. One is cafried by the angels to a place of blessedness, the other fines himse.f in torment. One is at rest, the other crie out for a drop of water. One is happy, and the other remembers lost opportunities. One forever holy, the other utiohange ibly evil. Make your class to tee that the Bible is all that men will ever have to guide them to heaven, and that this is enough. There will be no new evidence given. He that will ne glect the Bible will be lost. There is no exs cuse for him who does not receive God’s won! and seek salvation iu tbe appointed way. The old Bible is tbe only Bible. REMARKS. Living for self will end in eternal torment. Ihe hereafter is as real as the here. There ate two conditions in the future world and the separation between them is real and end less. Death to the Christian is a great gain, to the sinner a terrible loss. God s word the only and tbe adequate means for the con version of sinners. The soul letains iu the future life its consciousness and its memo ry. W ill teacher and class be on the same side ofthegulf hereafter? If you feel despondent, and weary of lite, do not give up; it is not trouble that causes such feelings, but disordered kidneys or liver, which Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure will invigorate, restore, and thus bring you happiness once more.
