THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of ths Lesson, I Sam. Hi. 1-13, 19. 20?Msmory Vsross, 8, 9?Golden T?xt, I Sam. iii, 9?rCommsntary Prs parod by Rov. O. M. SUams. What a specially great lesson till? la for boya, with something for every one. young nod old. In all Scrfpture there Is a message from the tietivt of God to each' Individual heart that reads. It Is true always, as la the last rerso of our lesson, chapter, that th^ lord reveals Himself by His word. The Scriptures are the revelation of God to man. and the Lord Jeaus Christ Uth^LIvIuK Word, in whom we see the Father, even as He said. "He that hath seen Me hiith seen the Father" (John xlv, 0). Our lesson 0|>ens with Samuel ministering unto the Lord. See also chapter U, 11, 18. Thla Is pot the word which 1? translated to "minister In the priest's office," but the word to serve or minister, na when Joshua ministered to Moses (Ex. Xxxlli, 11; Josh. 1, 11. Even a child can serve Him whs came not to be ministered unto, but to minister (Matt x4 28). May we al ways be able to say from the heart, "Whose 1 am and whom I server' and count It our highest privilege to minis ter unto Ilim (Acts xxvll,23; Luke Till, /B; Dan. v I, 16). In the revised version the words "precious" and "open" are la the margin "rare" and "frequent,? trad the meaning probably Is that any special message from the Lord was of rare occurrence or It had been some time since He had spoken. The book of Judges ended with every man doing right in his own eyes (xxl, 25), and now E!l, the priest of the tabernacle, which was then at ShUoh (1. 3: Josh, rvltl, 1, 10), waa somewhat out of fel lowship. for he mistook broken heart ed, praying Hannah for a drunken wo jnan nnd did not control his own sons, honoring them above God, so that a man of God had to come to him with a reproof and a w.Trnlng d, 12-16; 11, 2fT-36). . > Before we consider tbe call of Samuel in our lesson let us look at the circum stances of h(s birth. His father. Kl kanali, Keeina to have been a devout man,-going up from rear to yea^ to worship and to sacrifice unto the Lord of boms In Shtloh (1, 8). Bat he bad two wives, which was contrary to God's original arrangement and al ways brought trouble. Hannah, who bad no children, was continually taunted by'the other, her adversary, provoked sore and made to tret and grieve fl. 4-8). tier refuge waa prayer unto tbe Lord, and He beard her and gave her this son 8am net (1, 10-20). She called him Samuel because she asked God for him (L 20. margin), and when she bad we?ned him she took him to Shtloh to serve the Lord In the tabernacle "with Eli. visiting hlin from year to year when she went up to worship and taking him i Httie coal (I. 24-28; U. 18. 10). The Lord abundantly rewarded her for the gift of her firstborn, for He gave her five others, three sons and two daughters <11. 20, 21). So Samuel grew before the Lord and was In fa vor both with the Lord and. also with men, and the Lord was with him, und nil Israel knew that be was establish- j ed to be a prophet-of the Lord (IL 21. 20). How beautifully tbe Lord did I bless Jhe boy who was dedicated tu ITIm even before his birth, and bow grandly He did reward his mother mid cause her to forget her misery oud sing for joy! Her song lu chapter U, 1-10, which Is also called a prayer, la one of tbe most beautiful ou record Returning to our lesson' story, we read that one night, or perhaps toward tbe dawn (verses 2,' 3, 151, Samuel heard some one call him, and. suppos ing It to be Ell. he ran to him, but. on being assured ttint Eli had not ei'.Hed him. he lay down again.' The K^.oyd time he benrd his iihji'u f and wunt ngatn to Ell, but was wwirtd as oe fore. Not until he beard hi? name the third time and for the third time went to Ell with the words "Here am f did Ell perceive that the Lord was calling the child. Then be said to him. "If you are called again sqy, 'Speak, Lord, for thy servant heareth.'" For the fourth time tbe Lord called him and this time mentioned hla name twice? "Samuel, Samuel." ? I have found only seven people'In the Bible who were thus addressed, and there most be some significance in It, whether we can see It or not. Look them up and pender tbe circum stances prayerfully. On hearing this fourth call feamuel replied as Ell taught htm, and then the Lord gave to Samuel the solemn message for Kit which he faithfully repeated to him In the morning, telling him every whit and hiding nothing from him. It Is doubtful If either of them slept again that night Samnel had hla first mes sage directly from the1 Lord, and Eli was no doubt wondering what It could M. They each had enougb to think about Samnel from this time onward seems to have had. always an ear for God, Note tbe peculiar language of I 8am. Iz. IB. and may we all hove Itmllnrly anointed cars to hear His volc?v Ell ww the Justice of It alL remembering no doubt the words ol thf man of God In chapter II. 27. and be submissively said: ?'It Is the Lord. Let Him d? what setmeth Him good" (verse 18). Compare Job 1. 21; II. l6; Ps. writ, 0: tea. rcxvDI. IS: nxlx, a 1 Tke Trading Staap Kril It thare la ona practice ln roru ta 1 this country that o OS tit to be "canned" It is the trading ?tamp evil. - I , It 1* one of the biggest takes stace the days ot Barnum. yet people will nibble and bite at it continually and then Jell tor more bait. When a merchant must resort to the questionable practice ot giving pre miums ln order to sell his goods It Is quite time tor the buyer to aak hlmselt It those goods are worth the price de manded tor them. It they are worth the price, the mer chant will not need to oiler "some thing tor nothing" ln order to effect a sale. The goods will sell on their merits But It they are not worth the price ?and a "bait" Is dangled before the prospective customer?It Is time to go to some merchant who will give a dollar's worth of goods ln return for every dollar he gets. ' . The trading stamp habit Is resorted to by the merchant In cities, who use them as an "Inducement" to pull trade from country people. And It Is a safe bet tbat the merchant gets the full value of his goods, and likewise the full value ot the trading stamps he "gives" to his customers. If wheat Is selling at a dollar a bushel and a city chap went out into the country and told a farmer^ h? would take a load provided the farmer threw In a hog or a cow as a premium, what would the farmer do? Kick h'.m off the place, ot course, for insulting his Intelligence. When a tellow offers to bribe you to trade with him by giving you trad ing stamps, or "something for noth ing," Isn't he handing you Juat about the same brand ot courtesy? Is It a compliment to your Intelligence? If a dealer can afford to give yon trading stamps, cant he Just as well afford to reduce the cost of his goods to the extent of the value of his stamps? And If he Is charging too much for hta goods. Is that the place for you to trade? Inferior goods sold by thp aid of "premiums" are expensive ln the end ?for we,never get anything ln this world that we do not pay for? n?t even a premium, or a trading sb The Ideal dealer who gives dollar's worth of goods In exchange for your dollar 1b the man to tie to. He Is the man who will stick by you when others have failed.?Exchange. Ever Salivated by Calomel? Horriblel Calomel Is quicksilver and xts like | dynamite on your liver. Calomel loses you a day!
