‘Brooklyn, N. Fw Prenohina at the

street, on the theme ‘‘Covetousness,’
the Rev. I. W.. Henderson; Jagtor,

money is a ‘root of all kinds of evils.
Covetousness is' part of the soil in

Covetousness must not be -con-
nded with honest desire to emu-
late good example. Covetousness
and righteous discontent are not one.
Covetonusness and manly ambition are
not similar. The: man who -looks
with “greenish glinting eyes at: his
neighbor's well deserved reward is
no brother to the soul who longs to
follow in the path of those who have
achieved However wrong
envy may be adjudged to be, the man
who wants to do and to ‘become and
to earn a higher place in life, is wor-
thy of all ‘praise. To look upon the
wealth and power and eminence of
others with the evil eye is wrong, but
it is. ‘no reprehensible than is

our Toratnthars finds expression in
the country that we love so well
Chto is contrary to the law
of God and the commands of Christ.
Righteous discontent is a boon tc
humanity for without it men would
never move ahead. But jet us not
digress too much. Covetousness is
the subject of the tenth command for
good and sufiicient reasons. Ids
senseless; it brings distress; it is a
curse.
Covetousness is senseless, it is un-
wise. No man by taking thought
can annex his neighbor’s property to
himself. The highroad to unhappi-
ness is founded, as much as it is
built upon anything, upon envy of
the other fellow’s fortune. Envy is
silly for it makes us sick with jeal-
ousy and disappointment, the while it
offers no relief. The fact that your
neighbor is undeserving of his for-
tune or has no real appreciation of
his benefits neither alters your posi-
tion nor remoulds his state of mind.
That other toiler’s place will not be
yours whether you are covetous Or
no. The other woman's clothes
might not become your style at all,
although they do look well on her
But grit and go may put you in a
higher place and make you peer with
him whom now you wish you were;
and taste with sense and little cash
may keep you in becoming clothes.
Covetousness of the other person's
clothes or place or wealth is sense-
less and it certainly is sin.
Then, too, to covet is to undergo
distress. Think of the heart aches
and the head aches of those who for-
get their present blessings in jeal-
ous contemplation of the other peo-
ple’'s joys. The pleasure of the hour
lies unused. The opportunities for
immediate happiness lie unnoticed.
The joys of the fields and the skies
and the hills and the vales -all are
forgetten. Life with its many un-
priced happinesses is a thing uncared
for and unknown. The soul, the
heart, the mind, thé ar faculty
of being, all are distressed and dis-
eased with inordinate desire for the
her man’s possessions. Woe Dbe-
tide the man or the woman into
whose heart the devil of envy enters.
For to covet is to be aflame with sin.
Covetousness is a curse. The
courts are calendared with cases of
unholy lust for land. Ijove lies slain
in many a home because of mar-
riage ties undone. The jails are full
of men who coveted the property of
the other man a little bit too much.
The business world well knows the
necessity of ‘‘thou shalt not covet
thy neighbor’s man servant.” Too
often the surest way to down a rival
has been to lure away some trusted
employe who could draw away his
old employer's trade. But in the
ethies of many a business house this
js sagacity and not sin. The shop
girl is greedy for the ribbons and the
trinkets of the moneyed maid above
her and she sells her body, while
she damns her soul to gratify. her
whim. Covetousness is a curse.

But while there {s admonition and
a lesson for those who are guilty of
this stated sin there is also another
lesson for our day which springs out
of this command. The careless, 0s-
tentatious, ill-balanced display of
wealth by those who possess it is a
sin. The ownership of property be-
yond the average enjoins wise ad-
ministration on the owner. The ma
at the top has a mighty regulative
influence upon the world of men be-
neath him. If men are covetous of
other people's wealth, they are so,
many times, because plenty' has
flaunted itself so recklessly in the
face of their great need. The girl
whose life is wrecked may not be all
to blame. The useless, vulgar dis-
play of finery by women whom she
never met may be the central reason
for. her downfall. The millionaire
squanders his millions and the ex-
ample is followed by the poorest of
the poor. America is the land of
those who live a life of ‘bluff’ be-
cause our. moneyed men have been
extravagantly wasteful. Sham, pre-
tention, desire to appear to be or to
be worth something more than we
are may readily be traced to the in-
fluence of the unwise rich. If a man

It is very plain that what is now

is more faith, We too little respect
faith, we dabble too much with rea-
son; fabricating gospels where we
ought to be receiving Christ; limit-
ing all faith, if we chance to allow
of faith, by the measures of previous
cutting the wings of
faith when, laying hold of God, it
conquers more and higher evidence.

ways will be graduated. ‘‘Increase

Keep Hoping Always.
We are saved by hope. Never man
hoped too much. The plague is that
we don't hope in God half enough.
Hope never hurt any one—never yet
interfered with duty; nay, it always
strengthens to the performance of
duty, gives courage, and clears the
judgment. St. Paul says we are
saved by hope. Hope is the most ra-

The only way in whic we can hope
to battle successfully against the

cating our youth. Many agencies are
at work in the effort to consummate
this meritorious achievement. Per-
haps there is none other that is so
well fitted to accomplish this very
thing as is the Youth’s Temperance
Alliance of America, an institution
of the conservative National Temper-
ance Society, under the guidance of
the Rev. Alexander Alison, D. D., of
which the writer became informed
the other day:> It is peculiarly happy

School reader.
The labors of this institution are
to be confined entirely to the educa-
tion of boys and girls before the age
of twenty-one. An article in the
Christian Work recently published by
Dr. Alison has this in part to say:
“If we are to solve this liquor prob-
lem and secure total abstinence in
the individual as weil as in the State
we must do it by votes There is
only one way of getting these votes;
that way is God’s way. In the high
moral field of temperance activity the
ways of the politician will not avail.
You cannot secure by purchase the
votes that are the outcome of con-
science. The motion toward the poll-
ing booth which is born of the sense
of ‘ought’ and ‘ought not’ is the mo-
tion, that, in its action, is decided and
permanent, beeause it is born of prin-
ciple. It is built upon the solid rock
of character. To secure conscientious
exercise of the franchise we must
begin with the child. The boy must
be trained. The culture must not
be spasmodic; it must be steady; it
must be persistent. We must stay by
the youth at every step until he be-
comes an American citizen.”
Space will net permit to degcribe
in full the modus operandi. A per-
usal of the article in the issue of the
Christian Work fer April 6, page 409,
might be valuable. It is strictly -in
line with the lesson for to-day and it
is eminently the method of the
church.
The high ground of the Christian
church. must always be, on every-
thing else as’ well as on ihe
ject of temperance, that it will
fuse to lend its sanction in any t
jon to anything that is destructive to
the morals and minds of humanity,
or that tends to defraud men of their
birthrights as the sons of God. The
church cannot afford to put a stum-
bling block in the way of any man.
And it must teach its youth that
this is the will of God for private as
well as for organized life. Far bet-
ter is it that we should deny our-
selves than that any man should suf-
fer through our unworthiness.
