Lesson TO- June Cth,
JESUS THE BREAD OF LIFE.
John 6. 22-40. Golden Text John 6.
81 Time, April, A. d. 20. Place, Gu
pernsum.
The morning dawned upon ssene of
| rich-hued beauty. The green, grassy
slopes, the Sea Of Galilee, ruffled with
the storm Of the preceding night, and
here aud there on the hill side groups of
| people who had slept in the open air
A few boats were ut the beach, and the
people hastened to enquire where He WAS
who so mraculously fed them the day be-
fore. Finding that He had gone they
also took ship aud went back 10 Cap r
naum, where they found Christ on his
way to the synagogue. They opened the
conversation with an inquiry as to His
return to Capernaum, but the Muster, who
read their hearts, puSsed their question
by, and at once spoke TO them Of the real
desire of their hurts. They were expect
ing Messiah who would he great
military leader, and who would revive
their national glory and bring them into
a condition of ease and plenty. They
shared the common feeling in this regard.
and the miraculous feeding of the day
before was an incentive to them to expect
still better things i'll the future. Christ
knew their desires and their designs, and
He told them to seek the Bread of Life,
which would supply their every need and
without which they could never enterin-
to His spiritual kingdom. They had
their precohteived notions ofthe Messiah
and we're unable to understand His'teteh-
ings; and supposed He referred to some
special works which they must perform.
what shall we. do,' they asked. A
voice from the crowd-probably some
Rabbi who WIS present and wished to
entrap Him--demanded sign, and re-
minded Christ. that Moses gave mama
from heaven to the children of Israel.
This striking event in the life of Moses
had made deep impression upon the
Jewish mind. With the years it had
grown in force and intensity, until the
people half deified Moses, and ascribed
wonderful powers tohim. 1t was taught
that as Moses was the first savior of the
people and gave them mama, so the
second Savior the Messiah, would also
give them mamma from heaven. Hence
when Christ spoke of Himself as the
Bread Of Life, He was promptly asked
for this special sign which the Jews had
been taught to expect. No doubt Il Q
mocking questioncr expected to demol-
ish the claims of Jesus at once, but His
answers so satisfied many of them that
they cried, Lord, evermore give us this
bread" And then He taught them the
beautiful truth that all who believe on
Him shall thus eat of the Bread of Life
and drink Ofthe living water which shall
ensure them everlasting life. These
metaphors would have been easily under
stood by them if they had not been
blinded by their preconreived notions Of
the Messiah. Eating was common
fgurative expression for devouring Tie
words of the law. One of their popular
sayings was, ain the time of the Messiah
the lsraelites will be led by Him." On
this occasion Jesus adopted the usual
fgurative language to which they had
been accustomed and taught the world
that in Him we have spiritual life.

Death Of Ephraim Grim, of Allsptown,

The slatington Grays and the LehiEhtcn
Nine Cross Bats on Decoration Day,
and the Home Team Wins. =

anu tuo nOuo lohW WluS.
On last Saturday afternoon about 100
people assembled ON the old fair gI ounhs.
corner of Northampton and Elm streets,
this borough, to see the game of ball
between the Siatington Grays and the
Lehighton Nine. At S:20 p. IN. both
clubs, the members of which were nice
ly uniformed, got on the grounds; time
was called, and the visiting club took
the field. After some hard playing the
home nine scored one run in the first
inning and managed, very nicely, to give
the Grays three goose eggs in succession.
Up to the fifth inning, as will be seen
by the score appended, the game was
very closely contested and excitement
ran high; but in the sixth inning our
boys scored seven runs to the Grays'
one, and from then on the game was in
the hands of the Lehighton Nine.
Brinkman backed Koons behind the bat
exceedingly well, and was the object OF
frequent applause; "Blackie" carried
off laurel by catching "fy" which
was spinning along through centre field
The other members of the club did
equally as good work and deserve to be
complimented for the manner in which
they acquitted themselves. The game
was one of the most peaceable that eveI
took place on the grounds, and the YER
dict of the people was, that the member:
of the Slatington Grays were gentlemen,
The members of the visiting team
played well; they are an active set oi
young men, and no doubt when they
get little more practice will give many
clubs in the valley tussel. Our home
team is improving rapidly, and any clut
that tackles them will have to fight 8
hard battle to carry off the honors.

A Wonderful Rnnk.

We should judge, by the wording of
the advertisement in another column of
this paper, that the new book entitled,
1.-The Worlds Wonders,' is indeed a
wonderful book. 1t will pay the curious
as wall as those seeking employment, to
read the advertisement. The historical
Publishing Co., offers to give standard
books to persons who will send them
names of book agents. They also offer
to start people without capital in bust
ness that will pay from Sl5 to $50 per
day-a pretty good income for these
hard times. Read the advertisement.

been immense and have been uniformly
large. AS far as l could judge, they have
been always serious and attentive. Quite n
number have asked the prayers of the church
by coming forward on invitation to the altar
or knecling at their Seats. Several persons
have prOtesSed conversion. Fourteen have
applied for church membership. The meet
ing has been a most profitable one to my
church and congregation, and as | trust and
believe to the community. Rev. S. j. Bethea,
OF the Abbeyille Circuit. has been OF invalu-
