MARY'S CHOICE.

That which Jesus calls ''that good part"
must be of priceless value a treasure we'll
worth obtaining in this changing, perishing
world for it is to be enduring, lit shall not

spoken in regard to Marys choice, and yet
how much they convey. She sat at Jesus
feet ana heard his words. W lille reading

Saviour looked with lore and pity upon the

not only cumbered with many cares, but she
was also anxious for his personal comfort.
