The Devotional
Use of the Bible
By REV HOWARD W POPE
Moody BIH Institute
Chicago
TEXT — Give us this day our dally bread
—Matt 6:11
How one shall read the Bible de
pends largely on what he Is reading
it for The Bible
is an all-around
book and serves
many purposes
but it Is well to
have In mind
some definite pur-
pose In all one’s
reading
All Btrlnged In-
struments quickly
get out of tune
The action of the
atmosphere andf
constant vibra-
tion in playing re-
lax the tension of
the strings so that
they need to be
tuned very often No matter how good
the violin is It needs to be tuned every
day and often many times a day
Man Is like a violin He soon gets
out of tune with God The wear and
tear of life and the demoralizing at-
mosphere which sin creates so affects
his disposition that he needs to he
brought Into harmony with God every
morning It Is not surprising when we
consider the snbtlety of sin and the
weakness of the flesh rather It Is -
Strange that a harp of a thousand strings
Should keep In tune eo long
Nothing will bring the believer Into
touch with God bo soon as a little taste
of the divine Word For devotional
purposes the psalms are perhaps the
best reading because they cover so
wide a range of experience Here we
find aspiration and confession Joy and
sorrow adoration and praise- Here
we behold the calm confidence which
grows out of a sublime faith: “The
Lord Is my shepherd I shnll-not want”
Again we meet the bltfel anguish
which comes from lngratBMe or un-
requited love or the ecstasy of sin
forgiven or the passionate plea for
mercy as In the fifty-first pBalm or
the shout of triumph In the thirty-second
psalm It Is doubtful if there is
any experience In life for which we
cannot find a duplicate lu the psalter
and noting how the man after God’s
own heart behaved in similar emergen-
cies we are unconsciously led Into the
same feeling
Morning and Eventide
In the morning read the nineteenth
psalm and at eventide the eighth
psalm If yon are going on a journey
Psalm 21 Is appropriate If In per-
plexity read Psalm 87 If you are
grateful choose Psalm 105 or Psalm
106 or Psalm 107 If your heart needs
searching read Psalm 139 which be-
gins with the words “O Lord thou
hast searched me and known me” and
after a sublime description of God’s
omniscience closes with the prayer
that only an honest heart can utter:
“Search me O God and know my
heart : try me and know my thoughts :
and see If there be any wicked way In
me and lead me In the way everlast-
ing” If It is comfort you need you
will find It In abundance In Psalms 84
91 and 103
The Gospels are also excellent for
devotional reading because there we
come In contact with the words and
works of Jesus We see how he lived
In the home and by the wayside In the
carpenter’s shop and by the open
grave We see him In public Ufe and
in private ministry always the same
never huh-ied never worried always
thinking of others and never of him-
self We see him playing with the
chlldnn watching the birds on the
trees the growing grain and the fad-
ing flowers In everything he saw
God’s love and care ' and from all
things natural he drew some spiritual
lessons The epistles are especially
helpful to the mature Christian as re-
vealing the relation of the believer to
his fellow man to the church the
stqte and the perishing world
How Long
If It be asked how much one should
read at a time for devotional purposes
let me answer with an Illustration I
once saw a picture of the disciples on
the way to Emraaus The Master has
Just left them and the two men are
looking at each other In glad astonish-
ment One of them Is holding both
hands over his heart as he says with
rapture “Did not our hearts burn
within us whll he talked with us by
the way and while he opened to us
the Scriptures?” He can almost feel
his heart burn still as be: recalls the
memory of that blessed walk
If you ask how long one shall read
his Bible for devotional purposes I
answer “Read until your heart burns
and your soul thrills with the con-
sciousness of God’s approval” ’
The Morning Watch
George Muller’s testimony regarding
the morning watch Is very valuable:
"The first thing a child of God has to
do morning by morning Is to obtain
food for his sonl And what Is food
for the soul? Not prayer but the
Word of God not the simple reading
of the Word so that It passes through
our minds as water runs through a
pipe but considering what we read
pondering over It and applying It to
our hearts When we pray we speak
to God When we read the Bible God
speaks to us”
YOUNG GIRL’S DAY
Leading Dressmakers Devoting
Much Attention to Her Needs
New Three-Piece Costume of Navy
Blue Serge and Foulard ' Has an
Eminently Youthful Air 1
The leading dressmakers and tailors
are devoting a great deal of attention
to the special needs of young girls and
very specially the girls of America
The day of the young married woman
Is clouded oyer It Is the “jeune1 fille”
who now carries all before her writes
Idalla de Villlers Paris correspondent
- The sketch shows a very charming
girl’s costume recently designed in
Paris The novel three-piece cdstume
of navy blue serge and foulard Is a
Doucet model The serge skirt falls
as you can see in long straight lines
and though It Is slightly full It Is nev-
ertheless very much narrower at the
hem than the skirts of a few months
ago
Then the smart little coatee made
of cherry-red foulard spotted with
blue Is It not delightful? So cool and
Bp eminently youthful with Its practi-
cal sldp rackets and loose open col-
lar The mixture of fine serge and
foulard Is finding great favor with our
Parisian elegantes All the new serge
materials are snpple as silk cashmere
and they give splendid wear And the
newest foulards have something of a
serge surface while retaining all the
charm of soft silk
The Doucet model might be copied In
any color' For example it would be
very uncommon and attractive In fine
black serge — this for the skirt — and
white foulard spotted with black for
Smart Three-Pleco Costume
the coatee the hem on the coat collar
etc being of black serge
Doucet is using a great deal of print-
ed foulard this summer Some of the
designs are rather elaborate giving
cashmere-shawl effects but the great-
er number are expressed la spots
rings or half -moons "
We may look for a long period of
popularity for foulard This silk has
always been a leading favorite with
women and now that It is again fash-
ionable they will njt easily give it up
Turn Chle Black Frocks
Very new Is a frock of fine black silk
twill with a gllet of yellow muslin
edged all about with fluted muslin ruf-
fles and girdled with black silk A
passing breeze visibly stirs the fluted
yellow ruffles on the edge of a scanty
yellow muslin petticoat jvhlch was
never meant one feels sure to be en-
tirely hidden by the outer skirt of
black says Vogue
A black silk frock very straight and
slim Is encircled with a narrow belt of
gray pique A narrow band of gray
pique finishes the lower edge of the
skirt and a gray pique collar crosses
the shoulders In the back this ar-
rangement allows but very little of the
collar to be visible In froht A tri-
angular patch pocket Is placed on each
side of the skirt and the top of the
pocket stands out cuplike from the
skirt The Inverted apex of the gray
triangle Is weighted with a gray tas-
sel This model Is also very pretty In
black liberty satin with blue or be-
gonia red organdie sustltuted for the
gray pique
Paper Clips for Lingerie
Paper fusteners the Inch long ones
rounded at both ends make passable
lingerie clasps and are more easily put
on than the regulation gold ones Slip
them through the shoulder straps Just
as you slip them over the tops of sev-
eral sheets of paper They are almost
Invisible
An Ingenious girl I know sews a
small flat silk flower on the head of the
clasp It covers the clasp and lies flat
on each shoulder furnlslng a pretty lit-
tle touch
Summer Bloomsrs Ribbon Tied
- Somewhat unusual are Italian silk
bloomers of the regulation pink tone
which are trimmed with Dresden rib-
bons about the knees and tied in little
loops that suggest a sort of flat tassel
It Is anticipated that the bloomers In
pink white and black will constitute
a desirable part of the summer outfit
since they may be worn In place of the
regulation pantaloons beneath the skirt
if khaki linen serge or gaberdine 1
OVERBLOUSE FOR EARLY FALL
Very charming Indeed la this dellght-
ful overblouse of white crepe de chine
fastening In front with embroidered
buttons and a narrow belt forming a
loose box plait 8ilver scroll em-
broidery handsomely embellishes the
front of the collar the odd kimona
emplacement at the sides pointed
cuffs and front and back belts The
allover soutache design adds greatly to
make this blouse a smart and elegant
addition to the wardrobe of tho sum
mer girl
SETTING TABLE FOR DINNER
In Preparing for Extra Guests at Least
Twenty Inches Space Should Be
Allowed for Each Person
In extending the tables for extra
guests allow at least 20 Inches space
for each guest
The inner pad for lining tablecloth
should hang over the edges of the
table two or tbree inches The cloth
Itself a quarter of a yard or more
Place the knlfo with the sharp edge
toward the plate the forks with tines
turned up spoons with bowls turned
up '
The napkins (for a formal dinner)
should be placed on the service plate
—a large plate at each cover which Is
to be left there until after the soup
Is removed The bread-and-butter
plate Is at the left hand at the' up-
per edge of the service plate and on
It should be a thick slab (not slice)
of bread and ball of butter Crack-
ers too for the soup may be placed
ready to save time
Place silver at side of plate In or-
der In which It Is to be used except
dessert spoon (or fork) and butter
knife which may be placed in front of
the plate
Simple place cards are In best taste
put them on the napkin
If possible have enough salt and
pepper holders that each pair of
guests may share one
MANY HATS OF WASH FABRICS
Gingham Used by Milliners In Addition
to Such Materials as Linen
8atln and Creps
Hats of all kinds are fascinating
this summer Big and little dressy
and informal they seem to have re-
ceived especially delightful treatment
and It Is a homely woman who cannot
this season find a hat In which she
will look well
One of the most Interesting groups
In the general melange of charming
things Is that of the fabric hats To
be sure we’ve always had them — hats
of linen hats of satin hats of crepe
etc but we’ve never had such a wealth
of them and surely never were they as
a whole so delectable ' And then
we’ve never made such a feature of
wash fabrics in hatdom writes a fash-
ion authority
One Is even safe In saying that the
milliners are using wash fabrics this
season that have not before been used
for grownups There are those plaid
gingham bats for example When
have we seen their like before? And
yet now that we have them we won-
der that the milliners resourceful be-
ings that they are are so late In think-
ing of them
Waterproof 811k Rain Capes
' One cannot get away from capes
even In waterproof garments Long
all-enveloping capes of rubberized silk
In gay colors are provided for summer
wear the bright light rose and blue
and yellow and purple tones having a
certain bloom that softens and beauti-
fies them delightfully Often they have
draped hoods and It may be that they
are lined throughout with contrasting
color One In bright rose Is gray on
the reverse side and its hood Is gray
lined There are checked silk rubber
capes too one la fruity yellow and
gray being especially good
Metalllo Thread
So many hats this summer have or-
naments fastened to the crown or brim
by long silk stitches In several colors
Tinsel or metallic thread is now being
substituted for silk not only on hats
but on dresses that are not made of
wash material
Gold tbread and turquoise silk sil-
ver and coral are favorite combina-
tions which look Well on most mate-
rials Sometimes the threads ars
couched In place while frequently they
are worked In chain or shadow stitch

Teacher of English Bible In the Moody

LESSON FOR AUGUST 5
MANASSEH’S SIN AND REPENT
ANCE
LESSON TEXT— II Chronicles 83:1-20
GOLDEN TEXT— Let the wicked for-
sake his way and the unrighteous man
hia thoughts: and let him return unto the
Lord and he will have mercy upon him
and to our God for he will abundantly
pardon— Isaiah 65:7
The reign of Manasseh was the long-
est of any of the kings of Judah It la
strange that a wicked king should
have the distinction of the longest
reign This can be accounted for per-
haps by the fact that the nation was
in such a state that their Idolatrous
corruption needed to go to its fullest
development It seems to be neces-
sary In a world of free beings that
their actions must go to a certain
stage of development It was so with
the inhabitants of Canaan before that
land was possessed by Israel Israel
was kept In Egypt until the iniquity
of that nation was full In this case
doubtless the Lord permitted this to
go on until the Idolatrous practices
would become extremely obnoxious
I Manasseh’a 8ln (w 1-9) Though
he had the example of a good father
he with passionate endeavor gave him-
self up to the imitation Of the heathen
about him This shows that grace is
not Inherited a good father may have
a bad son It also teaches us that it
Is absolutely necessary to bring the
grace of God Into vital touch with our
children for that grace is absolutely
essential to their salvation' Only his
grace can counteract the downward
pull of sin
1 He restored the high places which
had been destroyed by his father
(v 8) It Is thus seen that he sought
to undo the good work done by his
father
2 He erected altars to Baal (v 8)
The idols worshiped on these altars
seem to have been Images of licen-
tious appearance provoking the indul-
gence of the human passion There-
fore with this worship was coupled
the grossest licentiousness
8 He Introduced the star worship
of the Chaldeans and Assyrians (v 8)
He even erected' these altars In the
house of the Lord placing them on a
level with God himself
4 He set up Moloch in the Vale of
Hlnnon (v 6) He not only encour-
aged this worship on the part of oth-
ers but he even caused his own chil-
dren to pass through the fire
5 He practiced magtc witchcraft
and dealt with a familiar spirit (v 6)
So gross were these practices that
they did even worse than the heathen
whom God had destroyed before the
Children of Israel came Into the land
6 He rejected the Lord's testimony
(v 10) Doubtless the prophets had
again and again admonished him but
he seems to have turned entirely aside
from such remonstrances
II Manasseh’s Chastisement (w 11-
18) The Lord In grace used the As-
syrians to chastise Manasseh so as to
bring him to see his evil ways He
was captured perhaps while hiding
among the thicket of thorns (v Tl)
bound In chains and carried to Baby-
lon This was most humiliating Hls
hands were manacled hls ankles fas-
tened together with rings and a bar
III Manasseh’s Repsntancs (w 12
18) Fortunately the chastisement
had its desired effect Manasseh was
brought to hls senses and turned from
hls evil ways The steps In hls re-
pentance are as follows:
1 Affliction (v 12) This was most
severe Bound with chains and dragged
to Babylon While this was severe it
was light In comparison with the sins
which provoked It
2 Supplication (v 12) Manasseh
had the good sense to cry out to God
in this condition It Is the unmistak-
able evidence that God's chastisement
Is accomplishing Its purpose We are
Instructed In James 5 :13 In time of af-
fliction to pray '
8 Humility (v 12) This Is a com-
mon characteristic of penitent souls
Those who come under the hand of
God always recognize it In their hum-
ble walk
4 Forgiveness (v 13) - As soon as
God sees the signs of penitence be
turns In mercy to the penitent and
grants absolution for sin No one
needs to wait long to receive his for-
giveness 5 Ills kingdom restored (v 13)
Manasseh not only was forgiven but
he was actually restored to hls king-
dom Those who truly repent God
will not only forgive but he will re-
store (Psa 32 :3-5)
6 Apprehension of God (v 13)
Through this experience Manasseh
came to know God
IV Manatseh’s Reformation (w
14-20) Manasseh was not content
with merely receiving God’s forgive-
ness and restoration to hls kingdom
but he sought so far as possible to
undo the mischief which he had done
1 He strengthened the fortifications
of Jerusalem so as to make hls peo-
ple safe from the attack of a foreign
foe (v 14)
2 He removed the Idols from the
House of the Lord (v 15) Through
bitter experience he had come to know
that an Idol Is nothing that It could
avail him nothing In time of deepest
need
