3. He returned Home with his
Parents,-vs. 51-52.
Such was the quality of the early life
of Jesus. Great truths and great pur-
poses were beginning to stir in him.
Nevertheless, his time to enter upon
his mission was not yet. 1t was the
Jewish law that one should not be a
public teacher until he was thirty years
old. Jesus knew it was wise for him to
abide by this law, and employ all the
years preceding in preparation for the
work which was in due time to become
known to him.
So he went down again into the com
mon paths of life. and fulfilled all home
ly virtues and daily duties, and ennobled
all his tasks. In this obscurity he grew
year by year in stature and in the wis
dom which a pure heart only appre-
hends

Taking Care of the Cat.

Where the presence of any kind Of poi
son is suspected prompt and energetic
action is necessary. A liberal dose Of
uke-warm water, sighted sailed, will
almost always act as an emetic, but
when the case is urgent, it is better to
administer at once generous quantity
Of sweet oil or melted lard. After such
an experience the cat will usually need
a course of cod liver oil and generous
diet, and if there seems to be resultant
inflammation of the stomach symp-
toms of which are frequent vomiting and
refusal of food-one grain of trisnitrate
of bismuth twice day will be found
beneficial. A little powdered sulphur
made into paste with lard or unsalted
butter and smeared upon the front paws
now and then is an excellent thing to
keep cat in good condition, but care
should be taken that there is no expos
ure to cold or wet until after the effects
of the medicine have passed off. Raw
meat should never be given save in cases
where other food is refused and it is
necessary to build up the system; then
it should be given in small quantities,
and be perfectly fresh and free from fat.

TEACHING POINTS.

INTRoDUCToRY,-By a specimen scene from
the boyhood of Jesus we are left to judge of his
life during the first thirty years.
~ v. 40 40. Jesus life in Nazareth. He had
good yet humble home; he had religious pa
rents. Nature taught him its lessons. He had
the benefit Of the synagogue school, 1t was
the era of the synagogue, the precursor of the
Christian church. Jesus was well-born and
wellbred.-We have in the few touches given
of his early life the picture of a PERFECT BOY.
(2.)y. 1880. His experience in the temple.
The going of Jesus with his parents to the pass
over Festival in Jerusalem signifies that he was
emerging from the period of childhood. The
responsibilities of life were now placed upon
him-His preference for the instruction of the
scholars in Jerusalem, above all the other at
fractions of the city, exemplifes his character.
We see in him no disobedience of his parents
but behold him entering upon a life of conse-
Grafton which his parents cannot fully under
stand.-He would now according to one rem
deriDg of the Originally be about his fathers
business; according to the revised version. he
was henceforth TO be found in his Fathers
house. The worli itself was thenceforth to
him his Fathers house.
(3) v. 81. 50. He was subject to his parents,
The patience of Jesus during the long period of
his preparation is moral heroism.--It may be
that the reason why he was eighteen years at
his work as a carpenter, and but three years in
his public ministry, is that he might show in
his example the comparative dignity and great
ness of humble and obscure tasks.-His moth
er believed in him. Her heart treasured all the
prophecies of his exceptional future.

THE BOY JESUS.
january 12. 1896.
Lesson H.: Luke III. 4O-5s.
INTRODUCTION.

The evident object OF Luke, IN
writing the Life OF Christ, is to tell the
story of Son of God who, in his matur-
;tv. became a Witness of God and the
Saviour. He therefore passes quickly
over the early years of Jesus. He repro
duces the prenatal traditions; he re-
counts from previous records the mar
vellous incidents attending his birth
and infancy; then, with single excep-
ton. he leaves the succeeding thirty
wears of his life in obscurity.--Ihe
single exception to the prevailing
silence as to the preparatory years OF
Jesus, is our lesson to day. We nave
one scene in the boyhood OF Jesus; and
the purport OF this scene is it's evidence
that Jesus, however exceptionally Dorn'
WAS q true Son of Man. He shared the
limitations of our common humanity.
His spiritual life, like his bodily stature,
was a growth.--'sHis development
saws Farrar. twas strictly human de-
velopment. He did not come INTO Inc
world endowed with infinite Kno"leosei
but as Luke tells US, he was gradually
advanced in wisdom. He was not
clothed with infinite power, but expert
enced the weakness and imperfections
of human infancy. He grew as other
children grow, only in a childhood OF
stainless beauty,-as the flower OF roses
in the spring of the year, and as lilies
by the waters. There is for the most
part a deep silence in the evangelists
respecting this period; but what elo-
ouence in their silence. May we not
find in their very reticence wisdom
and an instruction more profound than
if they had filled many volumes with
minor details?"

Are You Willing to Listen to a Sug-
geStiOn?

The NEW YORK TRIBUNE's broad columns
and large print make it the easiest paper in the
country to read, either on the cars or at home.
Henry Romelke, proprietor of the largest News
paper Clipping Agency in the world, testifies in
published card, that his clippings for over
1900 clients show that THE TRIBUNE contains,
''day by day and week by week, far more orIgi-
nal matter than any daily newspaper in New
York City, He proves the fact by figures. THE
WEEKLY ranks the same.
Business men find the market reports of THE
TRIBUNE absolutely without an equal. THE
TRIBUNE is the only newspaper in New York
City whose reporters actually visit all the differ
emit markets In person
The TRIBUNE now prints the best and fresh
est humorous pictures of the day from the
comic press of two continents, and supplies
plenty of other entertainment
BY Its special kilograms and correspondence,
it's able editorials and high literary character,
THE TRIBUNE maintains splendid position in
the regard of Republicans and lovers Of music,
art and good books.
THE TRIBUNE's society news is known every.
where for excellence. Its Fashions have a.
ways been of special value, and changes Of style
are, as rule, foretold In THE TRIBUNE sooner
than In other newspapers.
THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE is recognized, Of
ficially, as the leading newspaper of the Repub-
liean party.
As for Farming and Labor, THE TRIBUNE has
for 80 years demanded, and yet demands that
every possible dollars worth of food and com
modities, consumed by the American people,
shall be produced by the American people.
For this cause. THE TRIBUNE labors in its vari-
GUS editions S65 days In every year.
A man is judged by the newspaper he takes.
He who reads THE TRIBUNE is wide awake,
progressive, respectable and capable. worthy Of
the confidence of business and social friends. If
you are young man, you will live In rut all
your life Except by catering to that which is
basel If you feed your mind upon newspapers.

John Gibson COnfesses to Burning Tom
Shaw's Saloon.

John Gibson Confesses to Burning Tom
shaw's Saloon.
John Gibson, cold, was arrested
last Saturday on the charge of burn
ing the saloon of MIR. II. J. Shaw,
near the depot, on the night of Tues
day, Aug. %.
When brought before Justice
Coleburn' Monday morning, he
waived examination, and his trial
was set for the next term of the Cir
cult Court, which convenes next
Monday.
When first arrested he denied his
guilt, but Monday he made a CON-
plete confession Of his crime to the
authorities.
In his confession he says that he
was hired by white woman who is
on unfriendly terms with Mr.. Shaw
to set the house on fire, being prom
ised the sum of So if he should sue
coed in his work. Gibson says he
received $l.05 of this amount at one
time, and 20 cents at another.
He says that in setting fire to the
house he procured coal-oil car
from an old cOlOred woman, carried
It to the store-house of Frank Shaw
and had a nickel's worth of oil put
| in it. He then carried the can up tC
bis room, emptied the oil into bot
tie, and returned it to its owner. He
carried the oil to the scene of his
work, piled a lot of kindling-wooC
under the side of the house, anC
| 4, AoA L. l.
son says that when he touched fire
to the oil, the house seemed al
ablaze in an instant, and he became
very much frightened and ran away
as fast as he could.
There are, no doubt, others impli
Gated in the deed, and the trial will
perhaps prove quite an interesting
one.
