Ing. Luke, xiv. 30 KS; :S
Two villagers, having concluded
their l1'e errand in the city Of Jeru--
salem have started out at the city
gate and are on their way to En-.
maus, the place of their residence.
/ :Ihey go with a sad heart. Jesus who
5had been their admiration and their
JOY, had been basely massacred and
entomDed. AS with sad face and brok-
en- heart they pass on their way, a
Stranger accosts them. They tell him
their anxieties and bitterness Of soul.
he IN turn talks to them, nightly ex-
1 pounding the Scriptures. He throws
over them the fascination Of intelligent
conversation. They forget the time
and notice not the objects as they pass,
and before they are aware, have come
up in front of their house. They
pause before the entrance and attempt
TO persuade the stranger to tarry with
them. They press upon him their hos
FATALITIES. Night is coming on and
he may meet a proving wild beast, or
be obliged to lie unsheltered from the
dew. lie cannot go much further
! Why not stop there and continue their
pleasant conversation ? They take him
by the arm and they insist upon his
coming in, addressing him in the
| words: Abide With us, for it is to-
ward evening =
The candles are lighted, the table is
/ spread, pleasant socialities are enkin-
| died They rejoice in the presence Of
the stranger guest. He asks a bless
ing upon the bread they eat, and he
hands a piece Of it to each. Suddenly
and with overwhelming power, the
! thought flashes upon the astonished
j people-it is the Lord! And as they
| sit in GREATNESS wonder, looking upon
the resurrected body Of J esus, he van
ished. The interview ended. He was
gone.
With many of lis it is a bright, sum
shiny day of prosperity. There is not
a cloud in the sky, not a leaf rustling
in the forest. No chill in the air But
we cannot expect all this to last. He
is not an intelligent man who expects
perpetual daylight of joy The sun
will, after a while, near the horizon.
The shadows will lengthen. While I
| speak, many Of us stand in the very
hour described III the text, '.for it is
