A Patriot's
Prayer
By REV. JAMES M. CRAY
Do el Moody BiUe Iwswt
of Qucto
TEXT-I . . . prayed.-Nehemluh 1:.
Nchemiah was a great man, a great
statesman, a great administrator, a
great leader of
men. Put he was
great I'l the spir
itual -ealm as
well, he had great
power with God.
Although a Jew,
yet he dwelt in
l'ersia and occu
pied a position of
peculiar influence
at court; he was
the king's cup
bearer. It was some
time after the ro
turn of his coun
trymen from that
land of tholr cap
tivity to their beloved Palestine, but
they wore not prospering very well
since their return. Some of them on
a visit to Persia had been telling him
about it. They were in great afflic
tion they said, and In great reproach
from tholr enemies round about. The
walls of Jerusalem had never been re
paired since they had been burned
down by Nebuchadnezzar 150 years
beforo, and the result was they had
no protection against assault.
Man Deeply Affected.
This deeply affected Nehemlah, so
that he sat down and actually wept.
When patriotism moves us to weep
for our country it looks like the real
thing, especially when it is followed
ny someining eise as u uorc
. The weeping was accompanied by
faHtlng also, so different from the
modern way of showing patriotism,
which not infrequently takes tho form
of a banquet with speeches. This fast'
Ing lasted for days, he must have been
alono In it; but at length it came to a
head in prayer. Oh, If our statesmen,
and politicians and reformers only
knew the secret! How much more
they could accomplish at the Throne
of Grace than by legislation, and con
ferences, and harangues, and newspa
per articles.
A Wonderful Prayer.
It was a wonderful prayer this.
First, It was so unselfish. He was not
praying for himself but for people,
who, for the most part, he did not
know and had never seen. They were
his countrymen, that was all, and they
were In sore noed. How much do we
ever pray for our southern negroes, or
the mountain whites, or the dejected
Indians on our western plains, or our
dependents In the Philippines? What
real Interest have we in cither tholr
material or spiritual condition?
Second, it was such a humble
prayer. Somehow or otner no ion a
Bense of personal responsibility for
the condition of his countrymen afar
off though they were. He confessed
to sin In the premises, and Included
his "father's house" in his confession.
If he and his ancestors had acted dif
ferently things would not have boon
as they were. What do we know of
that?
Third, the prayer was helpful nev
ertheless. Hopeful, because be had a
strong promise of God to rest upon.
Remember thy word," he said, and
then he quoted that word. Can you
dfl that? You must know the prom
ises to be ablo to do It, and you know
tho promlser also. How much do you
search God'a word to discover Its
treasures for yourself or others, and
how much do you exercise yourself to
bring them down from heaven for life
on earth? Nehemlah Just agreed with
God about this matter. Ah! that Is
power. Head the chapter for yourself
and see how he did It.
Fourth, tho prayer was very defi
nite. Ho didn't go round Robin Hood'a
barn as the saying is. He didn't mouth
out a lot of fine phrases or pious notn-
lngs. He told God JiiBt what he want
ed and when he wanted It, If It would
please him to give it. He was going
to stand before the king on a certain
day in his capacity as cup bearer, and
that would be a good time to ask a
favor of the king. He was going to
ask him that he might be commis
sioned as governor of Jerusalem to go
up there and build the walls and de
liver his people out of their affliction.
The king must be disposed to grant
tho request, and he asked God so to
dispose him. Why do not the rest of
us cultivate that simplicity and di
rectness? How interesting It would
make both our private and public de
votions, and how it would enhance
God's glory as we thus came to look
for answers to what we asked.
Fifth, the prayer was successful, of
course. "It ploased the king to send
me," says be, "and I set him a time "
The God of Nehemlah still lives and
nothing Is too hard for him. The prom
Ise in Phlllpplans reads: "Be anx
ious for nothing; but In everything by
prayer and supplication, with thanks
giving, let your requests be made
known unto God." Our national
Thanksgiving day will soon be here
again, and If sincerely we count our
national blessings during the past
year, It will be the best preparation
for that earnest prayer we bo much
need. Afflictions are upon us In cer
tain quarters and perils are ahead and
greatly do we as a nation need God.
May he stir us up to lay hold of hlra In
prayer. Some of us cannot fight, but
who may not pray?
We are wisest when we cease to
question how and in what manner the
Spirit may speak to us, and simply
seek to keep ourselves so attuned to
spiritual influences and impression!

in whatever voice or tone or form his

LESSON FOR OCTOBER 24
ELISHA'S HEAVENLY DEFENDERS.
LKRSON TEXT-JI Kings 6:1-23.
OOI.DEN TKXT The angel of Jehovah
tncumpeth round about them that fear
him, awl deltvercth them. I'l. M:7.
A map is useful in teaching this
lesson. The events occurred during
the revolution which resulted in the
extermination of Jezebel and her
brood. Dotlinn, a small walled town,
was about ten miles north and slight
ly east of Samaria, the capital of
Israel, and In history Is connected
with Joseph (Gen. 37). Damascus was
the capital of Syria.
I. Danger, vv. 8-13. Jchoram, king
of Israel, cleaved to the sins of Jero
boam and of Ahab, bis father. In
Judah, Jchoram, the son of Jehosha
phat, married Athallah, the daughter
of Ahab and Jezebel. General Jehu,
famous for his driving, was soon to
becomo king of Isi aol. The 'king of
Assyria, being otherwise engaged, al
lowed Syria, the constant enemy of
Israel, to make a fresh attack unhin
dered (v. 8). Ellsha, the patriot, the
"man of God," proves to be 1st net's
real safety. Ellsha has not left us
great revelations like Isaiah and
other prophets, but ho knew from day
to day God's will, and be has power
with him so that he could warn his
people of impending danger. He had
what the king and the people both
lacked, a vision of God. He saw the
needs and dangers, but also the re
sources at his command. Thus ho de
livered Isreal many times (v. 10). We,
too, are thus frequently delivered, let
us praise God. The untleiylng reuson
for Israel's danger was Its neglect of
the word of God. and the same can be
said as explaining the defeat of the
Syrians. True patriotism combines
vision and warning. Tho king of
Syria, like countless other despots,
knew not friend from foe, but evident
ly he had one retainer who told hlra
the truth (v. 12). Some have sug
gested that this was Naaman; per
haps It was a captive Israelite. In
either raso It suggests God's knowl
edge of us. (See Ps. 139: 110.)
II. Defense, vv. 14-18. It was not a
mere guerrilla detachment sent to Do
than to capture Elisha before making
the main attack upon Samaria, but a
well-oflleered army. Ellsha meant
more to them than did the king of
Israel. The servant of Ellsha hnd
risen early and saw only tho hills
surrounding Dothan, upon which was
"a host with horses and chariots
round about the city" (v. 15), and In
consternation he exclaims: "Alas, my
master, how shall we do?" Again
we are Impressed with the vision of
Ellsha and tho lack of It on the serv
ant's part. Elisha saw what the serv
ant could not see; walking by faith ho
was not affrighted (John 14:1; Phil.
6, 7; Isa. 12:2; Ps. BG:3). In re
sponse to Ellsha's prayer the servant's
eyes were opened, yet he was not one
whit more safe than before (v. 17).
It Is a Btrlklng contrast here with the
Ellsha of chapter 2:10. It Is a sug
gestion of the Christian anointed by
the Holy Spirit and that of the saved
sinner before that experience. Our
eyes noed to be opened to see that
"they that be with us are more than
they that bo with them" (v. 16). We
need to see God's love, power and wis
dom In nature, providence and grace.
There Is nothing Incredible or un
scientific In this experience. It is a
rational and a glorious belief that
Providence is working In our behalf
through the unseen power of tho Holy
Spirit, the power of prayer and the
answers thereto. The unseen is glo
riously real.
III. Deliverance, vv. 19-23. In the
first section we are taught the danger
of a lack of vision. In tho second sec
tion the emphasis Is upon the need
of a vision, whereas In this there Is
presented tho use of a vision. To
crystallize vision Into experience Is a
difficult task for us all. Ellsha prayed
Jehovah, for whom he was acting, to
smite the Syrians with blindness.
This was not for vengeance, but (a) to
teach the Syrians who the true God
ts (b), to lead Jchoram, tho king, to
go to Jehovah for help, and (c) to de
liver the people from the raids of the
Hvrlans. This word "blindness"
(v. IS) conveys the Idea of dazzling,
visual bewilderment, hallucination and
not of total loss of sight, thus making
l. easy for Ellsha to lead them as he
willed (v. 19). Mentally bewildered
as a result of tholr physical ailment
they failed to recognize the prophet
he did not deceive them, for they at
last "found him" when he led them
Into Samaria and once more they could
see. Within the walls of Samaria
Ellsha's prayer is again answered,
their sight restored (v. 20) and they
Ilnd themselves at the mercy of Is
rani's king. The older and wiser man
Ellsha, forbids the younger, the king,
to use his advantage (vv. 21 22). but
rather to heap coals of Are upon thel
heads by setting before them food
(Rom. 12: 20, 21); within his power,
Buch acts could not be attributed to
fear. "Great provision" was made and
after their departure we read, "bo
the bands of Syria came no more Into
the land of Israel" (v. 23). Ellsha
taught the Syrians the lesson of the
power of Jehovah, and the dangerous
position of those who refuse to see In
him what he really is.
Thorn are liere presented three prla
clnal lessons.
(1) The foollBhness of seeking to
circumvent God or of thwarting his
purposes.
(2) The protecting care God Is con
stantly exercising over those who put
their trust in him, and in bis oound
less resources.
(3) The lesson of making the right
use of prayer and the answers which
we recolve, and to be magnanimous
to our enemies.
God honored Elisha's prayer because
EllBha acted according to God's Word
(I John 3:22; Prov. 28:9).
(Conducted by the National Woman's
Christian Temperance Union.)
8TOP RECKLE83 DRIVING.
Maryland's automoblJe operators
are prohibited from taking a single
drink while at the wheel of a car.
Commissioner Roe, . whose depart
mcnt has this matter in hand, says:
"I have decided to put an end to
reckless driving, and especially to
reckless driving superinduced by
strong drink, it It Is possible for me
to do so.
"To accomplish my purpose, It will
be necessary tor me to refuse to dis
tinguish between people who drink
little and those who drink much. I
shall, therefore, in the future revoke
the license of every automobile driver
who is brought before me if it can
be shown that the accused has been
drinking while operating his car.
"This, in my Judgment, is the only
safe rule to follow. I do not wish
to pose as an authority on drink or
what constitutes drunkenness. I Bee
no ray of hopo in so-called sobriety
tests.
"Therefore, I must conclude that a
chauffeur or cor owner who has taken
ono drink Is as guilty as the motor
operator who technically is consid
ered full. I am vested with full au
thority by law' to forfeit licenses for
such offenses, and I certainly shall."
LAST WORD ON CONSERVATION.
The necessity tor conserving our na
tional resources has been occupylug
the attention of our legislators, na
tional and state. Laws have been en
acted to protect our forests and our
water supply. Millions of dollars have
been spent In controlling contagious
diseases among our domestic animals,
and to eliminate the boll weevil from
the southern cotton fields and the vari
ous blights from our fruit orchards.
What greater national resource has
our country than our boys and girls,
and why should not the government
protect them from the blight caused
by the use of intoxicating liquors?
Congressman Addison T. Smith of
Idaho.
INCONSISTENCY.
"How dare you champion a thing
you can't pray for?" demanded Mary
Harris Armor recently to an audience
at the First Methodist church of Erie,
Pa. "How dare you soy, 'Thy will be
done on earth,' and go out and sign a
liquor license application? How dare
you pray, 'Deliver us from evil,' and
put a stumbling block In the path of
your neighbor's son? You do these
things every time you excuse the
liquor traffic, every time you vote for
the liquor Interests, every time you put
your name on an application for II
censing the sale of liquor In your com
munity." DRY TERRITORY.
Of a total of 2,973,S90 square miles
in the United States, 2,236,062 are pro
hibltion territory. The population of
the United States is 91.972.2C6. Of
this population 43,118,394 persons now
reside In territory in which the liquor
traffic Is outlawed. In other words,
about 80 per cent of the area of the
United States Is under prohibition and
approximately 54 per cent of the total
population of the country resides in
this territory.
PRODUCTION DECREASING.
"During the first eight months of the
fiscal year 1914-15 the production of
beer In the United States has de
creased more than three million bar
rels. The cause of this enormous de
crease, where under normal condl
tions an Increase would have been
only natural, is assigned by some to
the increase of prohibition territory;
and this is true to some extent."
Brewers' Journal.
THE BARROOM BANNED.
A man who would enlist for military
service must gain mastery over hlra'
self. A like mastery is needed in all
civilian service. There Is no place of
worthy service where the barroom is
not banned. Both "booze" and the
barroom must go from Canada, as
"vodka" has gone from Russia and as
the "public house" Is condemned in
Britain. The unfit cannot survive.
Toronto Globe.
REDUCED EARNINGS.
A workman in one of the Coates
villa steel mills declares that when
the saloons were open it was not un
usual for twenty to forty tons of steel
to bo spoiled In the rolling following
pay days. Thus the earnings of every
tonnage man in the mill were reduced
because of the half-drunken condition
of some of the men. "But with the
closing of the saloons," he adds,
"that's all history now."
NO MORE LIQUOR ADS.
After January 1, 1916, the Associat
ed Bill Posters' and Distributors' Pro
tective company cf New York, perhaps
the largest concern of the kind In the
country, will refuse to advertise in
toxicattng liquors. By this ruling the
company, says its president, Is com
polled to decline nine contracts,
single one of which would be worth
$35,0C0 a year.
LIQUOR ADS BARRED.
About one-fourth of all thi dallies In
the country take no liquor ads.
BEER A DANGEROUS BEVERAGE

DIDN'T WANT THE PROMOTION
Corpornl Had Good Reasons for De
clining Elevation Which Most
Soldiers Would Welcome.
Some soldier wao Corporal A. Lin
coln Brown, and be belonged to some
regiment, too, for at the time we speak
of he was In the Ninth cavalry.
Nobody rcmombers how It happened
now, but there was some mix-up, and
there was no money In the treasury
for tho disposal of the army, and for
five solid months soldiers hadn't seen
what a dollar bill looked like. The
army paymasters were Just laying
around and waiting for something to
hsppen.
Lieut. Col. John II. Gardner, now
retired and recruiting officer for the
San Francisco district, was a first lieu
tenant of the Ninth cavalry at that
time. In common with all tho officers
of his command he was getting along
financially during the period of non
payment of troops by borrowing
money each month from banks. Lieu
tenant Gardner was in command of a
troop. In common with all the troop
commanders he had to loan all his
men money regularly so that they
could buy tobacco, and pay for their
laundry and all that Bort of a thing,
and one of Gardner's heaviest debtors
in tho troop was Corporal A. Lincoln
Hrown.
There was a vacancy In a sergeancy
In Cardner's troop. The lieutenant
studied over the list of men he had
who were fitted to bo sergeants and
finally he chose Brown as the best of
the lot. He had Drown called before
him.
"Corporal," he said, "I'm going to
give you that vacant sergeancy.
Normally when a corporal In the
army Is told something like that at
least a grin of appreciation can be
counted on. Corporal Hrown, how
ever, looked frightened first and then
gloomy. "Ileggin' de troop comman
der's pardon. Bah," ho said, "but you
ain't got nothin' against me, has
you?"
'Why, of course not," replied Lieu
tenant Gardner. "Why do you ask
a fool question like that when I just
told you I was going to havo you
promoted? Don't you want to bo pro
moted ?"
"Ah should say not, sah," said Cor
poral Jones vehemently. "Ah done
owes you fo'ty dollars now, Bah, when
Ah Is wearln' two s'rlpcs on man
sleeve an" Ah ain't got no show fo' to
collect even a corporal's pay, sah. Ah

Vocation Selection.
Vocation teaching, with a selection
of Btutlents for different classes of
work by so-called scientific methods
seems to he still In n very rudlmental
stage. Prof. Herman Schneider has
had notably successful experience
with the .co operative courses of the
University of Cincinnati, hut con
eludes that the plan of choosing the
Hfework for Individuals by their phys'
leal peculiarities, Is not reliable. It
has been held that such characteristics
as the shape of the lingers or of tho
head disclose special aptitudes or
abilities. This Is a development of
the old phrenology, and might indicate
that a certuln money-making executive
will have appropriately shaped head
and hands, but successful executives
chosen at random showed no such pe
cullarltles. Tho claim of some pro
fessors of psychology that certain
mental qualities memory, attention
and so on gave fitness for certatn
work has proved equally misleading,
The old method of testing ability by
trying varied lines of work seems to
be tho only dependable one, and In tho
several years of a collego course may
servo as a very good guldo.
