raised above the worldly pveiudiccs that still blinded
the Apostles. she understood not only who but
what the Messiah wns and believed the intimalions
Of the Old Testament and his own predictions of
his own immediate death. This accounts for every
thing, gives to the predictions Of savior their
natural and obvious meaning. ~ confirmed by the
many condolences between those explanations and
the history, and teaches a lesson Of supreme I'M
portance.
Lessons:
1. Remember Christ hever forgets what any
servant of his does for him.
2. Give to the poor. The Disciples had a
poor-fuud.
3. Maintain religions expenses and place
them among the first Of your financial interests.
A. Pray. IL is to Christ as perfume Acts,
1898, and viii raise you memorial. Rev,

5. Our alabaster boxes for Christ. Whatever
is dear to Us break it for him. Let no treasure
be laid away as too dear for Christ or too pre-
cious for his Kingdom.
6. Be hOspitable
z. Always take the part Of the misrepre-
sented. Christ stood nobly by Mary and would
not allow her to be slandered
8. Never rsbuke any one for an act per-
| formed for Christ.
8. Witness for Christ. Be not ashamed TO
| show your alliance to him. Mary openly ex-
hibited her affection for Jesus. Do likewise.

THE ARKANSAS FLOOD.

From the Garden Sentinel.
Rivers a mile wide have been rarity in
southern Kansas, but when the Big ST
lent spread out over the bottoms in true
eastern style yesterday morning our citizens
We're treated to such scene as is often wit
messed on the beautiful Ohio, whose spread
ing powers are far-famed We are APP
preaching the time of the year when the
Arkansas usually shrinks in volume, but
on the contrary, this time it swelled sud
denly to a stream deep enough to float
steamboats,.
If such freshets are to become frequent
we can make preparations to irrigate mo
Mans Land and the Panhandle At this
rate we can irrigate everything between the
Union Pacific and the north side of Texas
While the east and the north and the
southwest are complaining of drought,
the farmers along the Arkansas in
southwestern Kansas are surprised by being
compelled to get up at two o'clock in the
morning to drive their cattle out of the
flooded pastures. The Cry of ''too wet"
comes up from the great American desert
We do not recollect hearing of any desert
heretofore which was cOursed by a river
sometimes mile in width. We are glad
for one thing that the flood came as it en-
phasiZes the fact that southwestern Kansas
is visited by bountiful rains. An opinion
prevails to considerable extent in the east
that western Kansas is a dry country, and
in some cases it requires great effort to con-
vince people to the contrary. No one can
doubt the evidence of rain which the flood
furnishes. Southwestern Kansas is the
wettest section of the whole state.
