BITS OF ADVICE.
HOW TO BEHAVE AT THE TABLE.
“I wish my mother would never have
company. A fellow can’t get enough
to eat when people are staring at
him.”
As I was visiting Frank’s mother at
the time, I thought this remark was
rather personal. I suppose I blushed.
At any rate, Frank at once added—
“ Now, Aunt Majorie, I did not mean
you when I said that, I meant stran
gers, like ministers and gentlemen from
out West, and young ladies.”
“Oh,” said I, “I am very glad to be
an exception, and to be assured that I
do embarrass you. Really Frank it is
an unfortunate thing to be so diffident
that you cannot take a meal in com
fort when guests are at the table. I
suppose you do not enjoy going out to
dine yourself 1”
“No,” he said ; “I just hate it.”
Perhaps one reason why boys and
girls do not feel so comfortable, and so
at ease as they might on special occa
sions at the table, is because they do
not take pains to be perfectly polite
when there is no one present but the
ordinary home folks. In the first place
we owe it to ourselves always to look
neat and nice at our own tables. No
body should presume to sit down to a
meal without making a proper toilet
beforehand. Boys ought to be careful
that their hair is brushed, their hands
and faces clean, their nails free from
stain and soil, and their collars and
ties in order before they approach the
table. A very few moments spent in
this preparation will freshen them up,
and give them the outward appearance
of little gentlemen. I hope girls do
not need to be cautioned thus.
Then there are some things which
good manners render necessary, but
about which every one is not informed
Os course you know that you are not
to eat with your knife. Fifty years
ago people frequently ate with their
knives, and is quite possible that now
and then you may see some old-fashion
ed person doing so; but it is not cus
tomary now, nor is it safe or conveni
ent. When you send your plate for a
second helping, or when it is about to
be removed,you should leave your knife
and fork side by side upon it.
It is not polite to help yourself too
generously to butter. Salt should be
placed on the edge of the plate, never
on the table cloth. Do not drink with
a spoon in the cup, and never drain
the very last drop. Bread should be
buttered on the plate, and cut a bit at
a time, and eaten in that way. Eating
should go on quietly, and not hastily.
Nothing is worse than to make a noise
with the mouth while eating, and to
swallow food with noticeable gulps.
Do not think about yourself, and
fancy that you are the object of attrac
tion to your neighbors. Poor Frank’s
unhappy state of mind was caused by
his thinking too much about himself,
as well as by a little uncertainty as to
what were precisely the right things
to be done.— Aunt Majorie Precept.
A gentleman met a little girl hurry
ing along one Sabbath morning.
“Where are you going so fast, little
girl ?” he asked.
“I am going to Sabbath-school, sir,”
she said.
“What are you going io Sabbath
school for ?” he asked.
“Oh, to find Jesus,” said the girl.
Yes, Jesus can be found in Sabbath
school. He is certainly there.
A lady in Springfield, Ohio, having
ftn errand out, left her baby, just able
to creep around the floor, in charge of
her three-year-old-son. She instructed
the latter to stay with the baby till she
returned. She was gone only about
fifteen minutes, and when she got back
she found the infant tacked on the floor
and the three-year old missing. During
her absence he got two tacks and a
hammer and tacked the baby’s dress to
the floor, after which he went out to

Answers to Mythological Ques-
TIOI js. —Neptune was the god of the
seas, and Amphitrite was bis queen. As
the god of the sea, he was always re
presented carrying a three-pronged
spear or trident, used by fishermen,
and with dolphins and other sea anim
als usually attending him. Minerva
was the goddess of wisdom and justice.
This goddess was always represented
armed, and the serpent, owl, and olive
tree were sacred to her. It is said that
Neptune and Minerva contended for
the right of naming the city of Athens
and that the gods declared that it
should bear the name of the one who
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER I, 1881.
should produce what would be -most
useful to mankind. Neptune struck
the earth with his trident and forth
sprang the horse. Minerva caused the
olive to grow. The gods then decided
in favor of the emblem of peace, and
the city was called Athens from the
name of the goddess Athena.

Lesson XI. —Sept. 11, 1881.
IDOLATRY PUNISHED.
Ex. XXXII. 26 35.-B. C. 1491.
INTRODUCTION.
After the giving of the law as in the last
two lessons, the Lord gave to Moses for the
people a code of civil laws as recorded in
chapters 21 to 23. The people solemnly
pledged themselves to keep both the ten
commandments and the civil code. After
this Moses went up into the mountain at the
command of God, and remained there forty
days and forty nights. Now occurred a
wonderful sin on the part of the people. Im
patient at the long-continued absence of
Moses they persuade Aaron to make fur them
a golden calf which they would worship
notwithstanding their pledge neither to
make nor to bow down to “any graven ims
age." Coming down from the mountain on
the fortieth day, Moses saw the calf and the
people dancing around it. Our present les
son tells us how the guilty idolaters were
punished, and how Moses interceded for the
people. ,
OUTLINE.
I. Decision demanded, v. 26 27.
11. Idolaters slain, v. 28 29
111. Moses intercedes, v. 30-32.
IV. Jehovah’s answer, v. 33 35.
NOTES.
I. Decision demanded.
V. 26. “Moses,” feeling that the solemn
covenant with God had been shamefully
violated. “The gate of the camp.” The place
of assembling for all public purposes. ‘On
the Lord’s side.” Willing to follow God and
not idols. “Come unto me." It is the sum
mons of an indignant and earnest leader,
who feels that a very great crime has been
committed, “Sons of Levi.” Os the same
tribe with Moses. “Gathered themselves.”
Having a clearer conviction than others of
the great sin.
V. 27. “Thus saith the Lord God of Is
rael,” whom they had so wickedly disobeyed.
“In and out from gate to gate.” That is,
throughout the whole camp, “Slay every
man his brother.” No feelings of relation
ship or affection were to interfere with their
duty. No doubt many of the people disap
proved of the idolatrous proceeding. Many
others, who were indifferent, allowed them
selves to be led by the few turbulent and
discontented spirits. Both these classes
would naturally shrink away to their tents
conscience-stricken. Only those who were
really bent on idol worship would be found
in the pathways leading through the camp.
These were those slain,
11. Idolaters slain.
V. 28. “Did according to- the word of
Moses.” Slew all they met, no matter who
they were. “Three thousand.” Leaders in*
idol worship.
V. 29. We have in this verse the motive
which impelled the children of Levi. “Con
secrate yourselves.” Devote yourselves to
the Lord’s work. ‘ Upon his son and upon
his brother.” That is, against his nearest
relative, if a rebellious idolator, slaying him
as a consecration sacrifice. “A blessing.”
Such a sacrifice would show a proper spirit
and thus secure God’s blessing. The motive
prompting this slaughter was loyalty to God.
111. Moses intercedes.
V. 30 Moses was devoted to Israel as well
as loyal to God. See Ch. 32:11 13. 'On the
morrow." Righteous idignation first, after
wards earnest desire that the people may re
pent and be forgiven. “Ye have sinned a
gnat sin- ’ All the guilty were not destroy
ed, only the ring-leaders. Moses stated the
enormity of their sin. “I will go up” into
the mountain, “unto the Lord.” The Lord
was angry with them, and they needed an
intercessor. They had lost their faith in
Moses (see 32:1), but he had not ceased to
love them. “Peradventures,” perhaps, “make
an atonement for your sin.” Secure God’s
forgiveness.
V. 31. This verse and the next contain
his intercessory appeal to God, an appeal
brief, but intensely earnest. "This people
have sinned a great sin.” He confesses the
enormity of their sin.
V. 32. Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their
sin.” An imperfeot sentence. In the in
tensity of his desire, Moses leaves his sent
ence unfinished, and thinks suddenly of the
consequence should God not forgive. "If
not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book.”
He feels that his life would be unsupportable
if his people were not forgiven. The I rael
ites were familiar with the idea of keeping a
register or a book of families. To be blotted
out of Jehovah’s book would be to be cut
off from among the people of God. God had
said in verse 10 that he would destroy Israel
and make of Moses a great people; but
Moses did not wish to live if the people were
destroyed.
IV. Jehovah’s answer.
V. 33. God replies that he who has sinned
shall be blotted out from his book, and
while not reproving the earnestness of Moses
for the forgiveness of the people, gently re
minds him that his alternative for himself
is an unreasonable one. Each offender shall
suffer for his own sin.
V. 34. "Lead the people." Carry out your
commission, “The place.” Canaan, the
land of promise. “Mine angel.” Whose
presence was shown in the cloud, and who
had led them thus far. See Exod. 23; 20.
“Shall go before thee.” As before the people
had so grieviously sinned. "In the day when
I visit.” When I come to punish. "I will
visit their sin upon them.” That is, God
foresaw that they would commit other sins,
and declares that when he punished for
others he would punish for this also. Punish
ment was only postponed in their case, and
its infliction would depend upon their fu
ture conduct. See Num. 14 :28.
V. 35. “Plagued the people.” We have
no account of the nature of this plagues,
but probably the the referehce is to after
afflictions of disease and death. "They
made the calf.” They caused it to be made
by Aaron, and therefore were chargeable
with making it. •
REMARKS.
1. In times of unwonted sinfulness in a
community the Christian is specially called
upon to show himself on the Lord’s side. 2.
They are on the Lord’s side who promptly
obey his commands. 3. Sin, unforgiven,
will be followed by punishment. 4 Every
sinner must bear his own guilt. 5 There is
one intercessor, even Christ Jesus, ever ready
to plead our cause. 6. We may make an
idol of money, dress, pleasure, business, but
all idolatry is a terrible sin. 7. Terrible must
be the condition of him, all whose accumul
ated sins God at last visits with their penalty.
It is possible that a remedy made of such
common, simple plants as Hops, Buchu,
Mandrake, Dandelion, &c„ make so many
and such marvelous and wonderful cures as
Hop Bitters do? It must be, for when old
and young, rich and poor. Pastor and Doc
tor, Lawyer and Editor, all testify to having
been cured by them, we must believe and
doubt no longer. See other column.—Post
“All Gone.”-“I cannot understand,”
said a little boy, “what becomes of our
sins when God takes them away."
“When you do a sum, Willie, and
take the sponge and wipe your slate,
what becomes of the figures?”
“Oh, I see now,” he said, “they are
all gone.”
And so God says He will blot out
our transgressions, and will not remem*
ber our sins. Isa. xliii. 25.
