And thou .shult love Jjiiovah thy (lod with iill thy heart, o:id with all th; .soul, and with all thy ir.i.Tht." â€" There is hardly a greater passage in all the Old Testa- ment than this, recognized by the Jews as "the great eomniandnient in the law," "the first of all command- men's." and called by the Lord Jesus hinvclf "the great and first eoni- man:i!U'nt" (Malt. 22: 30, ;!7; Mark. 12: -J; Luke 10: 27). "'i jircfore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul.' â€" Soloniiin wel! said: â€" "Keep thy beail with all dil gence; for out of it are the issues of life" (Prov. 4: 2.'lt. Our Lgrd said that "out of the aiiumiance of the heart, the mouth sp.aktth." 'The good man out of his !' )od treasure bringeth forth good thi;-L<, and tlie evil riian nut of his ovw irej'sure, bringeth forth evil thin;::." (Matt. 12: S'>). If wo lay up tile words of God in our iie:irt and soul, then the fountain of our lif.' v.ill b" holy, for the word of God is holy; (;ur heart will be right, fur thv V. ird of God is right (IIH: 75, Autli >rized Version). .\s David hims If said: '"Tliy word have I laid up i I my heart, that I might not sin agai. .n thee" (Ps. 119: II), "Bles- sed I're they that are pcn'.it in the way, who walk in the law nf .1. lio- vah. Blessed are they that keep bis testinionit s, that seek him uilh the whole heart" Ip:;. 119: l.'.'l. .\rm and Forehead "Ai.d ;. ,• h;;'l l.ind them for a sign upon vimi band, and they shall be fcr frjiill'.'.s between your eyes." â€"The Jiws t';;)k these verses <iuit'j literally. The passages (Ex. l.'i: 1 â€" 10; Deut. (!: i-'J; 11: Kiâ€" 21 ) were; â- written on p:ii(iitnent rolls and plac- ed in cases, so that they could be bound on the arm and forehead dur- ing morning prayer. These were cahed phylacteries. The phylactery Wa.s a leather box, cube-shaped, ^losed by an attached flap and bound to the person by a leather ban 1. It wa.s bound to the inner side of the left arm and near the elbow, no that with the bending of the arm, it would rest over the hc'arl, the end of the string or band firmly wound around the middle finger of the hand as a "sign upon thy h-.nd." They were to 1)0 worn by every male over 1.3 years of age at the t'me of morning prayer, except on Sabi)aths and fes- tal day;;, such days being in them- selves sufficient reminders of the laws of God (.see Matt. 23: 6). The phylactery for the forehead was bound on after the one bound upon the arm. The typical significance of all of this wa.s that the hand should do nothing contrary to the law of God, and the mind should never contemplate any- thing except what was in aeovd with the law of God. "And yc shall teach them ycur children, talking of them, when tliou sittest in thy house, and when tlvju walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou rise=t up." â€" As the family is the most intimate bond of fellowship an;ong men, it is of the utniist importance that it should be hallowed by religion. All the relations of parents, childien, and domestics are purified and are strengthened when the whole house- hold is statedly assembled, morning, and evening, for the worship of God. The character of the church and of the state depends en the .?Iiaracter of the family. If religion dies out in the family, it cannot elsewhere be maintained. A. man's responsibility to his children, as well as to God, binds him to make his house a Bethel. If not a Bethel, it v/ill be a dwelling place of evil spirits. Significance of Hoi.ie We hear a great deal tli(se days about the loss, in modern \:{:\ of a real appreciation of the value and significance of home. The toil of every day, and attendance at school, keep the members of our modern borne apart through the liay; attend- ance at the movies, or driving out in our automobiles in the evening, more and more is depriving our children of the privileges of fellowship with their parents at home. What we need today, for theatfrtJiiglhening of the church, for keeping our children from ultimate disaster, as far as we are able, for building up a mighty wall against the waves of atheism that are coming to us with increas- ing force, for saving (jur nation from an utter dissolution of moral integ- rity and uprightness, is a return to the sacred precepts here laid down by God himself regarding the teach- ing concerning God and the word of God at the hearlhside of our own homes. Nothing can ever take the place of thi:-.

W. â€" Suite 421 TORONTO, 2 upon thy gates." â€" Tho word here translated "door-posts" is, in the Hebrew, the word "mezuzah," and this very word is the name of the little case or glass tube which is nailed to the door-posts of the house, and In which a piece of parchment is folded, on which is inscribed on one side the verses found in Deut. C: 4 â€" 1) and 11: 13 â€" 21, and,; on the other the name for God, Shaddai. On leaving or entering the house, a pious Jew touches the mezuzah with his finger, and puts the finger to his lips, repeating the words of Ps. 121: 8. "That your days may be multiplied and the days of your children, in the land which Jehovah sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of tho heavens above the earth. For if ye shall diligently keep all this com.- mandment which I command yo'j. to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him; Then will Jehovah drive out all these nations from before you and ye shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than your- selves." â€" To fulfill this promise to Israel, God promises that he himself will drive out the nations possessing the country which n.' intends Israel to have. Israel's Tragedy "Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and La'ianon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even urto the hinder s'ja shall be your border. There shall no man be able to stand before you: Jehovah your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all ihe land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath spoken rnto yo'j." â€" If tho Israelites v/ould bo faithful to God, (iod would failhfuliy fulfill his prcin- ise to them, and no power on eanii would ever be able to keep the Israel- ites from the bles:'.Ings which were in the heart of Gcd to bestow upon them. The great tragedy was that Israel did not keep these command- ments, and consequently she never fully subdued the pagan and idolat- rous people \vho!Ti she found inhabit- ing Palc.'Uino upon her entrance into that land undi'r Joshua. Judge Pays Fine Himself NEBRASKA CITY, Nob.â€" D. M. Dierks, acting county judge, temper- ed justice with mercy in the case of Sol Lesser, charged with fishing without a license. "I understand the extenuating circumstances in this case," said the judge. "I know you have been doing your level best to get along without going on relief. But you must buy a license." Judge Dierks fined Sol $8.30 and then paid the fine himself. Municipal law in Portland, Maine, forbids anyone to tickle a girl under her chin with a feather duster.
