Dr. Newman, one of the subtlest nnd acutest of preachers, "after attempting thtee times to pi each on Saul, Is com pelled to confess that Saul's character continues to be obscure to him, and he wains us that we must be exceed ingly cautious while considering Saul's so obscure chsu actor ' Anil yet the stoiv Is a tiuer minor of human na ture. His Native Pride He belonged to one of the smallest tribes, at one time nearly extinct (Judges 20), but sit uated between the two greatest dl visions, Kphialm ami Jiidah, which facts temoved all grounds of Jcji1ous Ills i ejection by some, even after his election (1 Sam. 10 27 1. shows how great the danger was, ospecln11 from ICplulam or Judah, the rival tribes. Ills Personal Fitness Saul was n, choice young man In the height of bin personal attractions foi a leader "There was not among the chlldien of Israel a goodlier person thnn he, from his shoulders upwind he was higher than any of the people. He had a splendid bod and a stately gait, and the very sins of his soul had a certain lux Id giandetir about them also" Al exander Whyte. "Before the Invention of lireaims. personal strength was es seutlul In a leader as Indeed It Is still nniong the Alalia.' hit Cilt Com We see the same need In some of our sports, as. for Instance, football Saul was "every Inch a king ' Saul had the natural chaiacterlstlcs which made It possible for him to be a great and useful king. He possessed self-iestralnt. he was master of him self, the Hist essential He was mod est, not conceited He bad the mili tary Instinct, a capacity foi generalship, a shrewd mind, patience that could wait, "the unflinching nerves, tho quick eagle eye, the geneioslty to un wot thy opponents which makes suc cess so graceliil and Impeilal com mand so eas.v to endure " liber foice. And he had that Indescilbable personal magnetism which made him a popular idol. He was specially ptcpand by the Influences of God's splilt. After Sam uel had anointed Saul to the kingdom, w come upon this very obscure Scrip ture: "And It wns so that when Saul had tinned his back to go from Sam uel, God gave Saul another heart, and the Splilt of God came upon Saul, and he prophesied" (1 Sam. 10 10). He was "tinned Into another man" (1 Snm. 10: G). And he Immediately Joined himself to the leliginus guild of his people, and had the out ward form at least of prophecy In Its wilder and more ecstatic moods, such, as sometimes occuis now to certain temperaments In times of great ex citement. "Tho children of Belial." Belial Is not n proper name. It means "worth lessness" or "wickedness" (Cheyno). They were the labble, tho wicked, the base. These treated Saul with con tempt, ns an Inexperienced young man from the country, untialned In both statesmanship and war. "He held his peace." He was wise, felf-controlled and patient. How to Tieat Insults. A young man who had been badly Insulted enmc to Father Giaham hot with anger nnd bent on hnmcdlnto icvenge. "Walt," said Father Giaham; "an insult is like mud; it will b'rush off much better when It l dry." The young man waited, and tho very next day the In sulting person enme to bog his for giveness. The Coionntlon After his victory over tho Ammonites, Saul's popular ity among the people was very great, and Samuel saw that tho time was ripe for a hearty national confirma tion of the stop taken at Mlzpeh by tho national assembly. Tho prophet therefore called tho people together r.t Gllgal, between Jericho and tho Jor dan. This nnclent center of the Ho blew religion was tho most Biiltable plane for tho coronation of Saul and the ratification of tho kingdom. Thus Kdwnrd VII. was crowned moro than a year after ho became king. Hero tho previously divided nnd un certain people, with one voice con firmed tho now king In his authority, and tho New Era of the United King dom wns begun. He still hud the advice nnd counsel of Samuel. Ho thus entered upon n career that might have ended In un told usefulness and blessedness. Won dei fill and beautiful possibilities were spread out before him, like tho promised land before Moses on PIsgah. The morning of his kingdom rose nl most cloudless. Practical Points. God calls all men to his service In much tho samo way as ho called Saul. Thoro Is a secret call, manifested In tho natuic nnd Inherent fitness of tho man. Thoro is also tho outwnrd call of opportunity, a vacant Bltuntlon, an Invitation from an employer, what tho world calls "a good chanco." But It Is not chanco, though It seems so; It Ib nil of God'B ordering. Thero will como a tlmo to everyone who Is propnred, when he can provo to tlio world what ho is fitted to do, Thero lie In everyone oi us almost Infinite possibilities. Save the Babies.
