BIBLE EXPLORAHONS.
When Saul returned from following
the Philistines, he was told where David
was. He then chose a great number of
men and went to seek David among the
rocks. He came to a cave in which
David and his men were hid, but he did
not kn w that, and he went in too. He
went to sleep there. Then David’s men
wanted to kill him, but David would not
do so—he only cut off a piece of his robe.
When Saul went out of the cave, David
followed him and cried ou>, *‘Mv
lord the king 1” He turned back and
David said, “why will you believe I seek
your hurt? God'gave you into my hand
to-day and I did not harm you. See, I
have cut off the skirt of your robe —you
know I do not wish to kill you or I would
have done it. “The Lord judge between
me and thee, and the Lord avenge me of
thee.''
David spoke so kindly to Saul that he
felt ashamed and seemed sorry. He
said, “My son, David’’ and wept. He
said too, “you are better than I am, for
you have done good to me. when I have
treated you wrong ; you spared my life
when you had me in your power. May
God bless you for doing so. I know now
that you shall be king of Israel; promise
me that you will not kill my children
when lam dead.” David promised him
so he Jwent to his home and David
to his men.
About this time Samuel, the good
prophet who was “lent to the Lord” from
a child, died. Israel mourned for him
and buried him. ,
After Samuel’s death David went into
a wilderness. In that country was a
very rich man, who had thousands of
sheep, and he was shearing them. He
was a cross, crabbed man,, but strange
to say, his wife was beautiful, sensible
and good. David’s camp was near the
place where the sheep were feeding, but
he and his men I took not a one, nor
troubled the shepherds. David needed
food though, so he sent ten men to this
rich man and bid them say to him.
Peace be to thee, to thy house and to all
thou hast. We have been kind to your
shepherds and took none of your sheep
—now return the kindness and give to
thy servants and to thy son David. They
did as David told them, but the rich
cross man said,who is David ? There are
many servants that leave their masters.
Shall I take my shearers’ food and give
to those I know nothing about? When
the men returned and told David he said,
put on you swords ; he put on his and
took four hundred of his men to go
punish the cruel man, for David was
very angry.
In the meanwhile a servant told the
man’s wife. She made haste to prepare
a great present for David and sent, her
servants before her to carry it to him —
but she told not her husband. As she
went with her presents she met David
and his men. As soon as she saw him
she got down, bowed herself to the
ground before him and said : Let me
speak to you; but my lord think nothing
of my husband, for he is a foolish man.
She asked him to take the present she
had brought, and forgive her. She told
him God would bless him and make him
king, and that when he was king he
would be glad she bad kept him from
killing any one. Then David thanked
God for sending her to him, and thanked
her for what she had said and done. He
said to he r , Go home in peace, you have
kept me from doing wrong. She went
home, and next morning told her hus
bond all. He died about ‘en days after;
and David sent to the woman to come
and be his wife—she did so.

CORRESPONDENCE.
Dear Mb. B.: I saw in the “Children’s
Corner” a letter written by Lucy Garnett,
who says she is only seven years old. I
am two years older, so I thought I would
write. T. B. Cooper was the answer to
her acrostic. I will send you one next
week if you wish. I heard you tell the
children Bible stories at Cedartown.
Your little friend,
Estelle F. Jones.
Taylorsville, Oct., 3rd.
Estelle has written a very nice little
letter. We will be glad to get an enigma
from her, and feel gratified that she
remembers our talk at Cedartown. There
are many sprightly little folks there and
we often wonder whv some of them do
not write to us. Wonder .if pastor or
superintendent ever refer to the Explo
rations in Sunday-schvol ?
Dear Mr. Boykin: lam glad to fall in
with the Explorations again and hope to
learn the lessons regularly. lam happy
also to tell you that I have found tne
Savior since I saw you. I was baptized
on the 19th of August. We had a good
meeting at our church. Papa baptized
14 in all—l 2 the same day that I was
baptized. He has just returned from the
Association and was very much disap
pointed because he did not see you. I
suppose you had a good reason for not
coming. Wish you would visit our
Sunday-school again—can’t you ? I must
close. All join me in love to you.
Your little friend,
Battey Swanson.
Greshamville, Ga., Sept., 17ch, 1881.
We lejoice with Battey that he has
f jund the Saviour. We have prayed
for him a long time. May he be a useful
and happy Christian. We are glad to
learn from Julia that he has made such
a good beginning. We would have been
at the Association, but thought Dr. De-
Votie would go and went elsewhere.
Glad to hear from brother Butts that the
brethren had such a good time. It af
fords us pleasure to welcome Battey
back to our band, and hope he will
always remain with us.
Thanks to Julia for her letter. Glad
to know she is pleased with the Bible
sent. But didn’t she think it funny how
the address was written ? The fault of
the bookseller and somebody else -
poor writing. The enigmas received and
one goes in this week, another next.
Try to send one every week if possible.
Can we realize that "all things work to
gether for good to them that love God ?”
1 think father does so as nearly as any
one. God bless and comfort you all.
Will come to see you when opportunity
offers.
We have several answers and enigmas
from G. W. A. One appeals this week.
She is one of our most faithful and atten
tive explorers. But we want to request
her and all the rest to give answers in
full, not simply refer to Scripture. We
can’t take time to look up the different
passages. And it will confer quite a
favor if enigmas are written on one side
of the paper only, with answers on sep
arate sheet and all written so that we
will not have to copy for the press. We
can always send Julia’s to the press just
as they are received.
These Explorations are written at
brother David Brinson’s, Lowlands,
Appling county, where we always find
a cordial welcome. His good wife takes
pleasure in doing all she can to contrib
ute to our comfort.
We have just returned from the Pied
mont Association, where we met as
warm-hearted brethren as we find any
where. Advanced movements were
made in missions and Sunday-schools.
The Sunday-school work was put in the
hands of the executive committee to call
conventions and ma c s meetings as they
may think practicable. This, to us, is a
most satisfactory plan. The Association
will co-operate with the State Board
through its executive committee. We
found the preachers alive on the subject
of missions and all manifested a most
liberal spirit. About SIOO were raised by
the body, besides what was sent up from
the churches. We feel gratified to Jesup
church for remembering our work.
Other churches and brethren have con'
tributed liberally to our work. Ten
Mile, $15,75; Consolation, $7,66; Hazle
hurst, $4,25 ; Zion $15,00 ; Robert Car
ter, $5,00. Our warmest thanks are
hereby tendered to all for their kind
ness and generosity. We were never
more kindly received and more earnestly
invited to visit the churches and schools.
These brethren will always have a warm
place in our heart and we hope to see
many of them again during the early
part of next year.
Our venerable brother Blitch was
Moderator and won all hearts by loving
kindness and gentle manners. Young
brother McLaughlin was elected Clerk.
He has been a member of the church
only three months and yet he has been
made Superintendent of his Sunday
-1 school and Clerk of his Association.
May he grow rapidly in grace and
knowledge. The church and community
entertained the brethren generously.
She has a devoted pastor and superm
tendent—Rev. John Gardner and broth
er Alex. O’Quinn. Both are good and
true men. .
Complications.—ls the thousands that now
have their rest and comfort destroyed by
complication of liver and kidney complaints
would give nature’s remedy, Kidney-Wort,
a trial they would be speedily cured. It acts
on both organs at the same time, and there
fore completely fills the bill for a perfect
remedy. If you have a lame back and dis
ordered kidneys use it at once. Don’t neglect
them. —Mirror and Farmer.

Lesson V. —October 30,1881.
NADAB AND ABIHU.
Lev. X 1 11.—B. C. 1490.
INTRODUCTION.
One week after the erection of the taber
nacle, Aaron offered his first offerings, his
four sons assisting hint. He made offerings
for himself and then for the people. These
offerings were made in the court in the
presence of many witnesses. Then, having
lifted up his hands and blessed the people,
he and Moses entered the tabernacle. Com
ing out, they together blessed the people,
and immediately fire came out from before
the Lord and consumed the sacrifice lying
on the brazen altar. At sight of this the
people shouted and fell on their faces In
reverent worship.
OUTLINE.
I. The sin, v. 1.
11. The penalty, v. 2 7.
111. The warning, v. 8 11.
NOTES.
I. The sin.
V. 1. “Nadab and Abihu.” The two eldest
sons of Aaron. In our lesson on the taber
nacle, we had the direction to anoint Aaron
and his sons. In Lev- 9 we have the account
of the anointing, and from it we learn that
the consecration of Aaron and his sons occu
pied one week. V. 33, 35. At the end of
that time Aaron offered his first offerings, as
mentioned in our introduction. Whether
the incident of our present lesson occurred
on the same day with the-e offerings, or at a
later time, is uncertain. " His censer.” A
small portable ves el of metal in which
burning coals were placed and carried to the
altar of incense. “Put incense thereon.”
The pries*, when carrying the censer to the
golden altar, would carry in the other hand
some incense, which he sprinkled on the
coals on arriving at the altar. “Strange fire.”
This is generally understood to mean fire
Other than that which burned on the brazen
altar, which came out originally from before
the Lord, and which was kept constantly
burning. Chap. 6.13. “Which he comman
ded them not ” In taking this fire they
neglected to take that which had been com
manded. After the death of his sons,Aaron
was commanded, whenever he entered the
most holy place with incense, to take burn
ing coals from offthe brazen altar. Lev-16.12
This would seem to be a repetition of some
previous command (not recorded) concern
ingtheoffering of incense Takingcommon
tire instead of that from the brazen altar,
these priests committed an act of gross cares
lessness and surprising irreverence.
11. The penalty.
V. 2. "Went out fire from the Lord.'*
Probably from the Holy of Holies, where
God dwelled. "Devoured.” Killed. Neithtr ,
their clothing nor their bodies were touched
by the fire, as appears from verse 5. They
were instantly killed., as with a lightning
stroke. ‘ Died before the Lord.” Just where
they stood, and in the Holy place, and really
before the Ark, although the veil hid it from
their sight.
V. 3. “Then Moses said to Aaron.” No
doubt with a keen feeling of compassion for
the father of these sinning sons. "This is it
that the Lord spake.” No direct record is
found of this language. It may have been
spoken without being recorded. It was im
plied, however, in the words directing the
anointing of these men. See Ex. 40:13 15.
"Sanctified.” Declared holy. "Them that
comenighme.” Priests. "Glorified.” Hon
ored. "Aaron held his peace.” Murmured
not, nor complained, but submitted to the
will of God. We may easily conceive how
the father’s heart was tormented with an <
guish as he looked upon the dead bodies \
his sons and listened to the words of Moses. >
But against God he would not utter a word.
V. 4. "The sons of Uzziel,” who were
probably in the court at this time. "Come
near.” They were Levites, but not being
priests, they were not permitted to enter the
holy place unless they were specially com
manded so to do. "Carry your brethren.”
Though second cousins to the dead men,
they are called brethren according to Jewish
custom "From before the sanctuary.” The
sanctuary here is the Holy of Holies "Out
ofthe camp.” They were polluted, and must
be removed from among men.
V. 5 "Intheircoats.” The very garments
in which they had been consecrated were
now polluted, and must now be buried with
their bodies.
V. 6. “Uncover not your heads, neither
rend your clothes.” These were signs of
mourning, and these men had on their offi
cial turbans and garments, and must not
now show any exhibition of private feelings.
The whole house of Israel, not engaged in
priestly service, might bewail the wicked
deed and the awful judgment which came
upon them, not so much the death of the
wicked men.
V. 7. "And ye shall not go out from the
door.” They were not to leave the service
of the Lord. " For the anointing oil of the
Lord is upon you.” They were under obli
gation to continue their service, notwith
standing what had occurred. The service of
the Lord must not be interrupted by tie
wickedness of the sinning priests. "They
did according to the word of Moses” Not
from fear, but because they were observant
of God’s commands in their hearts.
111. The warning.
V. 8. “And the Lord spake unto Aaron.
Heretofore he had spoken to him through
Moses. Now He speaks to him directly as
the High Priest.
V. 9. "Do not drink wine,” etc. As these
words follow immediately the account of the
sin and punishment of Nadab and Abihu, it
has been thought by some that these young
men committed their sin while in a state of
intoxication. This, however, is all conject
ure and nothing more. The use of wine or
strong drink is here forbidden to those who
minister at God's altars.
V' 10. ‘Ye may put difference. Ibe
minister of God should have his mind al
ways clear. .... ,
V. H. “That ye may teach” clearly and
effectively.
REMARKS.
1. They who teach God’s truth, should
teach just what God has said.
2 They who minister in God s name must
be holy. , , ,
3. A good man's sons may be bad men.
4 Connection with the house of God does
not prove a man to be holy.
5. Violations of God's law will be pun
ished,
Traveling men find it hard to keep in good
health, owing to the constant change of
water, diet, and the jarring of the cars. All
these things injure the kidneys, while War
ner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure is certain
to counteract them.

"Perhaps, the worst devil that a man can be
possessed withal is, himself.”

—AND —
The Good Results Attending Its Use la
Heuduche, Neuralgia, Nervousness,
Indigestion, Sleeplessness,
anti Paralysis.
CELERY has come into public notice within
the last few years ns a nervine, but scientific ex
periments and experience have proved beyond a
doubt that it controls nervous irritation and
periodic nervous and sick headaches to a marked
degree.
Brown Squard says that Celery contains more
nerve food than any other vegetable or substance
found iu nature Celery was first discovered and
used as a nervine by French physicians about 1867.
But a combination of the EXTRACT OF CELERY
AND CHAMOMILE, which haslH*en but recently
introduced to the profession and the public by Dr.
C. W. Benson, has produced such marvelous re
sults in curing nervoumeM and headaches, and
especially nervous and sick headaches, neuralgia,
paralysis, indigestion and sleeplessness, that it naa
excited public attention and newspaper com
ments, and many physieans have tested the merits
of this preparation with the best results, as quoted
below from a few:

—Dr. Hammond, of New York.
