Sunday School Lesson.

International series. Lesson for
March oath, 1889: Blind Bartimeus,
Mark X:46-52. Questions on the lesson
to be answered and suggestions dis
cussed primarily by the members of
the Bible Glass in the Lutheran Sab
bath school of Abilene, and by all
others who so desire.
1. What do we need to help us to understand
this lesson?
2 Was Bartimeus in dangerous place for a
blind MANI
g. How did he know that Christ had power?
4. How much faith have you?
5. What is the proof of Bartimeus faith?
s. What is the proof of your faith?
Z. Why did Bartimeus follow Jesus?
Lesson ggestions-Bartimeus could heal
but could not see; such is the spiritual con
dition of all men by nature. Reason cannot
reveal spiritual truths. The sinner is not only
blind, but in the highway of all sorts of evil
Bartimeus was beggar; every sinner Is 9
spiritual beggar. 1t is not our praying OF
faith that saves us but Christ. Jesus passed
within sound of the blind man, so today He
passes within sound of every one.
Possessions are readily dropped from thu
hand sincerely reaching after Christ" Phil

10 the fact that the evening be.
fore there WAS speech here by
Annanlas o. Myers.
Why Annanias or any other
liar, SO. considered by Judge
Bright. should keep away from q

followers of that party, is not
very plain.
Ksnnedy's speech was a tame
affair. He never once mentioned
Foraker or the Ohio election
He pitched into the Democrats
of The South. and repeated his
speech Of last year made in those
States. He rambled around the
tariff question, showing that he
know nothing of the subject.
One of the amusing features of
the meeting WAS the presence of
Col. Rempel on the stage as one
of the vice presidents. During
the progress ofhis remarks, Gov.
Kennedy alIudIng TO the uoadIy
administration, denounced it as
rotten, corrupt 10 the core, and
every man OF his appointment
was a thief"
