Mt Airy, N. C.—ln a letter from
this place, Mrs. Sarah M. Chappell
•ays: "I Buffered for about 6 yean
with womanly trouble, alio stomach
trouble, and my punishment waa more
than any one could ever tell.
Several doctors had treated me, and
I had tried most every kind of medi
cine I could think of, but none did me
any good.
I read one day about Cardul, the
woman's tonic, and I decided to try it
I had not taken but about six bottles
until I was almost cured. It did me
more good than, all the other medi
cines I had tried, put together.
My friends began asking me why I
looked so well, and I told them about
Cardul. Several are now taking it."
Are you a woman? Do 7011 sujffer
from any of the ailments due to wom
anly trouble, such aa sleeplessness,
nervousness, weakness, and that ever
lastingly tired feeling T
If so, let us urge you to give Car
dul a trial. You have everything to
gain, if it helps you, and we feel con*
fident it will help you, just as it has
more than a million other women, in
the past half century.

LESSON FOR MARCH 16.
THE TEBT OF ABRAHAM'B FAITH.
LESSON TEXT— 22:1-13.
GOLDEN TEXT—"I desire jroodnesa
and not sacrifice: and the knowledge of
God more than burnt offerings."—How.
II
The birth of Isaac ("laughter")
17:19, and the setting aside of the son
of the bond woman, a story so rich
with suggeativeneßS, forms the con
nection between the lesson of last
week and the one of this week.
I. Sacrlflcs Required. "God did
prove Abraham" (R. V.) vv. 1-2. Abra
ham's ready response. "Behold me,
here am I," gives evidence of his life
long habit of obedience. He was ready
for "sacrifice or service. His habit of
taking God at bis word prepared him
for this final act of testing, and per
fecting, of his faith. The revised ver
sion "prove" is a better rendering than
the authorized version "tempt." God
does not tempt, 1. e., solicit men to
evil Jas. 1:13, but he does "prove"
men; see Ex. 20:20 and 1 Peter 1:12,
Abraham had been tried before but
what father Is there who will not say
this was the supreme test, for he Is
called upon to give up his, "only son,
whom thou cherlshest'
Abraham's Paltli.
Superficial critics
sion to make light of a God who would
make such a demand upon an earthly
father. We need to remember that
Abraham had doubtless witnessed hu
man sacrifices In Chaldea and that
having seen God's faithfulness and hla
past deliverances, he had enough
faith to believe that God could In his
own Providence deliver Isaac. Fur
ther. attention has been called to the
exact language of the text, viz.. God's
letnand was that Abraham "offer" (not
"kill") Isaac as a sacrifice. The liter
al language Is "make him go up" up
on the altar, doubtless In symbol. We
read elsewhere, Heb. 11:17 that "Abra
ham offered up Isaac," but we know
he did not kill Isaac. Those who
stumble at that part of the story miss
the great lesson God Intended to teach
In the record of this Incident. How
ever, Abraham was ready to do (v. 10)
what God himself did actually do when
he gave his "only son," John 3:16.
Rom 8:32. Isaac was the child of the
promise, hence the only eon (cf. Gen.
21:12). This makes the text more se
vere for Ishmael had been sent off,
j 21:14. God today Is calling upon fath
ers to sacrifice their sons, and fathers
j are sacrificing though not always unto
j God. We must put our children upon
I the altar. Matt. 10:37.
11. Sacrifice Granted.. "Abraham
rose up early," vv. 3-10. The writer
jof Genesis has left us to fill in the
emotions and the mental agony that
| must have surged through Abraham's
I heart, yet we again Bee a wonderful
j Illustration of prompt obndlenco, cf.
! Pa. 119:60.
Abraham's Devotion.
Attention has been called to Isaac
a* ■ type of Christ (cf. John 10:17-18).
(1) His name, given before birth; (2)
HIB birth, supernatural, predicted; (3)
Hl« offering, a, by hlB father; b. volun
tary; c, risen from the dead; (4) Hlb
marriage; a. bride selected by his fath
er; b, servant calls the bride; c. meet-
In* of bride and bridegroom. In thlfl
connection we behold Iguac bearing
the wood (v. fi) a reminder of Christ
bearing his cross. John 19:17. The
test to Abraham's faith was full even
to the point that "he took the knife to
slay his son," when Ood Intervened
The repetition, "Abraham, Abraham,"
suggests the urgency of Ood to save
and the devotion of Abraham In that
he was not eastly turned aside nor
looking for a way of escaping a die
agreeable duty. Abraham was BUS
talned to the end (Rom. 4:20, 21 R. V.)
and out of It all he 1b abundantly re
warded, vv. 15-18 and 26:4-5.
111. Sacrifice Provided." "A lamb
caught In the thicket." vv. 11-15. Again
God spoke to Abraham through "an
angel," an old Hebraic way of Baying
that Ood made himself known. It has
been suggested that at this point the
Hebrew broke away from human
flees. There is nothing in this Btory
to sustain any claim that Ood justifies
human sacrifices, but the exact con
trary. for Ood gave Isaac back to
Abraham (Heb 1:19 R. V.) and that
he Is constantly doing to those who
surrender their all and their best to
him. Mark 10:29-30; Prov. 11:24-25.
Abraham did not leave the mountain
until he had offered a sacrifice and
wbo can question but that his heart
was filled with Joy and thanks
giving unto Ood, 2 Cor. 9:J5. Without
the shedding of blood we cannot ap
proach Ood.
Abraham la a type of true piety
and is constantly held up by New Tes
tament writers as the ideal of religion,
the reason ia that religion never
change*, it is the attitude of the soul
to Ood. Read Horace Bushnell's ex
perience as related in "Dissolving of
Doubts." Some men seem to pass
through life without much testing, the
question la suggested, are they worth
testing, are they of sufficient value.
"Trials are Ood'a vote of confidence."
This is also s great illustration of
substitution*!? sacrifice, ask laaac if
he believed it? Ask the question.
