LESSON IV -- October 27 BELSHAZZAR'S FEAST (INTERNATIONAL TEMPERANCE LESSON)--Daniel 5 : 1-3-. PRINT Daniel 5 : 17-28. GOLDEN TEXT--Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler: And whosoever erreth thereby is not wise. --Proverbs 20 : 1. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time -- The particular events of this chapter occurred in the last year of Belshazzar's reign, i.e. B.C.. 538. Place--The king's palace in the city of Babylon. "Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; nevertheless I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation." Daniel rejected the gift and the distinction promised to avoid, as a divinely enlightened seer, every appear-of self-interest in the presence ich a king, and to show to the king and his high officers of state that he was not determined by a regard to earthly advantage, and would unhesitatingly declare; the' truth, whether it might be pleasing displeasing to the king. "0 thou king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty:" 19. "And because the greatness that he gave him, all the peoples, nations, and languages Sitting On Top In Britain trembled and feared befor whom he would he slew, and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he raised up, and whom he would he put down." How fearlessly, how clearly, how penetratingly, Daniel recalls to the mind of this sensual king the career of his grandfather Nebuchadnezzar, and especially the humiliating experiences which this greater man endured, which, themselves, should have kept ] shazzar from the pride and arrogance which so visibly marked his life, particularly at this hour! "But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him: And he was driven from the sons of ir and his heart was made like beasts', and his dwelling was v, ild asses; he was fed with gr xen, and his body was wet w dew of heaven; until knew that the Most High God ruleth the kingdom of men, and that he setteth up over it whomsoever (See 4 : 29.) "And thou i, O Belshazzar, hast not hui bled thy heart, though thou knewest all this," In the phrase, though thou knewest all this, it is implied that, notwithstanding his knowledge of the matter, Belshazzar did not avoid that which heightened his culpability. "But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou and thy lords, thy wives and thy concubines, have drunk wine from them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor .know; and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy vays, hast thou not glorified." 24. 'Then was the part of the hand sent from before him, and this writing inscribed.' Belshazzar, and all lords, and wives, and concubines, J Sketch Club ffi LESSON NO. 75 As musicians must have sound to produce Harmony in the Art of Music, it is only logical to measure Lines and Areas, in order to produce harmony in the art of composition. Rhythm in music is defined as the disposition of notes or tones as regards time or measure: that a measured or timed movement the succession of sound. We may have rhythm in any quantity, that is to say, anything that can measured by a unit of the same kind, is called quantity; which that property of anything that may be increased or diminished in extent, bulk, weight, or measure. Rhythm may be expressed in a pictorial or decorative way, providing that the artist has taken care of a measured (timed) succession (movement). In pictorial design it may be expressed with undulating lines or shapes, or with graduated measures of lines or shapes, as shown in Fig. 247. The undulating lines or shapes are the connecting links between the circles, and the graduated of the circles and undulating lines is rhythm. Unless the intervals at which you place the objects, that is their widths, lengths, angles, etc., are related by measures, they will lack harmony; as harmony is just the adaption of parts to each other any system or composition of things intended to form a connected whole. The connecting lines of Fig. 247 rising upwards from one circle to another are rhythmic, because the\ angles or spaces between them are] graduated measures, and the areas i of the circles themselves are also graduated measures. Rhythm as expressed in ornamen^ tal design may be understood by referring to Fig's. 247-8-9 and 250. In Fig. 248 and 249 the regularity and monotony may be broken by leaving out one or more squares or circles, or by interchanging squares, and circles, or by introducing somej other ornament or connecting line,; as shown in Fig's. 250 and 251. i Rhythm may be obtained by the flow, of line from one measure into an-her as is demonstrated in Fig. 251.

They had given themselves over to unbridled indulgence the things of the flesh; they were .itors to their own city, in that they were not placing themselves under stern discipline, when the siege of Bablyon so greatly demanded such absolute sobriety; but, most of all, they had mocked the true God of Israel. And this is the writing that was ;ribed: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN."

God hath numbered means that; God had fixed the number of Bel-' shazzar's days, i.e., the days of his: reign, beyond which they could not possibly be extended. "TEKEL; thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.", See Job 31 : 6; Ps. 62 : 9. God A1-' mighty has a special pair of balances before him weighting and filling up until your life also is numbered and finished.
