READING FOR THE DAY.

Sunday-SchOol Lesson for Nov. ID, 1886.
PETER REsToRED--J John xxi 4-19.
1t is doubtful whether any other passage of
Scripture has cornforted and helped men more
than this 1t gives the story of the restoration
to Gods favor of one who had entirely forfeited
it. The lesson appeals to our common and con-
scious weakness and failure. 1t is certain that
almost all men at some time of their life have
fallen in some measure from grace, and through
Peters experience they have found their way
back to hope and favor.
According TO Cnrist's directions, the disciples
return from Jerusalem to their homes in Galilee
Matt. xvii ~ and as was most natural. most
of them take up their old occupation of fishing
in the Sea of Galilee. the shores of which
many of them lived. On the same sea Christ,
just previous to their call to become 'nsners or
men" luke v. Ill; Matt. iv. 1877, had worked 8
great miracle. which profoundly impressed them
that he was the Lord of earth and sea, and their
net, breaking from the multitude of fishes on the
very spot where they had just toiled all night in
vain, showed them that he had all power and
was from heaven, land they forsook all and fol-
lowed him." Now he comes to the same place
TO teach them another great and encouraging
lesson of like kind, but under very different
circumstances. Now Jesus is only seen in dim
outline in the early morning, as we see him to-
day by faith, but he is the same mighty Lord,
aud his death has only made more evident that
he is now alive and on the throne This event
must have been within few days of the resur-
rection, and we find that seven of the disciples
were present.
LESSON APPLICATIONS.
L Jesus is nigh unto every one OF US, but un-
seen by many, because the things of the spirit
are spiritually discerned." Jesus can be identi-
fed only by ''the spirit of faith and the purpose
righteousness
g. Jesus attends to the feeding of his follow
ers. No one need say that his soul is hungry for
the bread of life. Jesds sets His own table and
distributes His own provisions.
g. Jesus should be allowed to direct our evan
gelistic efforts. Ask Him by life of earnest,
oulsavng activity to show you where the spir-
itual fish are.
1t is possible to become congenialy related
to Christ. Spiritual congeniality is first to see
Jesus. Rashness in reaching Jesus is praise
worthy.
5. Do not fish for men too near the shore. Get
out into the deep of the fathomless love of God.
God has way usually unexpected OF feeding
His fishermen.
g. Jesus questions and tests His pastors with
peculiar point and power. He would have them
of conscious humility and skill in the holy pas
toral art.
I. God accepts none whom He does not first
test God makes not success, but service, a test
OF devotion to Him. Pastors must feed the flock
of Christ on the meat He designates-the word.

Sore Eyes

The eyes are always in sympathy with
the body, and afford an excellent index
of its condition. When the eyes become
weak, and the lids inflamed and sore, it
is an evidence that the system has
become disordered by Serofula, for
which Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best
known remedy.
Scrofula, which produced a painful in-
HammatlOn IN my eyes, caused me much
suffering for number of years. By the
advice of a physician commenced taking
Ayers SarSaparilla. After using this
medicine short time was completely
Cured

ton, and I am as well and strong as ever.
Mrs. William Gage, Concord, N. H.

with humor in my eyes, and was unable
to obtain any relief until commenced
using Ayers Sarsaparilla. This medi-
cine has effected complete cure, and

fiers. &C. e. Upton, Nashua, N. H.

ton in my left eye. Three ulcers formed
on the ball, depriving me II sight, and
causing great pain. After trying many
other remedies, to no purpose, Twas final
ly induced to use Ayers Sarsaparilla.
BY Taking
three bottles of this medicine I have been
entirely cured. My sight has been re-
stored, and there is no sign of infamma-
ton, sore, or ulcer in my eye. Kendall
T. Bowen, Sugar Tree Ridge, Ohio.
My daughter, ten years old, was af1ict-
