assault on Christians in Jerusalem. The
Christians generally fed; but the twelve
remained at their post in the city.
Philip one of the seven deacons, went
to city of Samaria probably Sychar),
and brought great JOY to the people by
preaching the Gospel. Many believed
and we're baptized. One of the converts
was Simon the sorcerer; but his subse-
quent conduct in attempting to buy the
Holy Spirit, proved that his conversion
was imperfect. The apostles at Jerusa-
lem. hearing of Philips preaching to
the Samaritans, approved his mission,
and Peter and John we're delegated to
give it formal approval and to receive
the previously despised Samaritans into
the Christian church.
Lesson X. The Ethiopian Con-
vert.-Philip, under the direction of a
messenger of God. was the first delegat-
ed Christian foreign missionary. He
went southwark from Jerusalem, by the
desert road to GAIA. On the way he
became fellow traveller with high Off
Ger in the court of the Candace of
Meroe, proselyte to the Jewish faith
now returning from Jerusalem. whittier
he had come to worship. Philip over
heard him reading aloud from the
prophet Isaiah, and on accosting him,
he was invited to seat by his side in
the chariot. So effectively did Philip
preach Jesus that his nearer was in a
short time converted to the Christian
faith. and on beholding water by the
wayside, requested to be baptized. The
first convert of Christian foreign mis-
sionary was an African. Philip at
Cesarea continued his work as preach
or to the Gentiles.
Lesson NJ. Saul the Prosecutor
COnverted.-Wh Saul the Pharsee
perceived that driving the followers of
the Nazarene from Jerusalem was
spreading and not destroying the Cos
pei, he obtained commission from the
high-priest to persecute the Christians
in Damascus. But as he was with his
caravan nearing the city light burst in
upon him; he received revelation of
Jesus that arrested him in his evil
course and was the beginning of his
now historic career as the apostle of the
Gentiles. While he was waiting in
Damascus in darkness and confusion he
received the Gospel fellowship through
the HUMAN TOUCH of Ananias the Chris
tian. The conversion of Saul the Phari
see to Saul the Universalist is one of the
most important events recorded in the
New Testament; its prophetic signifi
canoe is revealed to us in the whole sub
sequent history of Christianity.
Our lessons of the quarter thus
give to us the first section of the great
story Of the Beginnings of the world
conquering Christian Church.

SINGING AMONG THE GREEKS.

The Ancient Greeks Sang BlitheIy
md Were Carefully Instructed.
Our present system of public instruc-
ton is not so modern as some would
have us believe. Sparta had her state
superintendent, who, if distant report
is to be trusted, was an educational
despot. But, while he welded his walk
ing stick freely during official visits,
and encouraged his subordinates to ply
the rod on all occasions, he was as
diligent promoter of music as is any
humane and progressive educator of
our era. AS result, the little Lace
daemonians sang blithely, no matter
what torment was going on under
their tunics. And all over Greece, in
those dim days, were schools, ranging
from infant grades instructed under
Arcadian hedges to the university-eX-
tension schemes harbored in buildings
uniquely termed "places of leisure"
The infants were drilled in their alpha
beta-gammas; the older boys were
taught poetry and gymnastics, with
something of arithmetic, geometry and
drawing; and adults spent their leisure
with rhetoriticians and sophists, pay
ing handsomely for the privilege. But
music was u sine qua non of Grecian
life, in school and in sport, in battle
and in burial. The epic and elegiac
chantings at festivals, the calm specula-
tions of Pythagoras as to the music
of the spheres, the choral outburst Of
1.-THE great fifth century" the material
odes of Tyrtaeus and Pindar, all show
the national love for melody Of voice
as well as for high and harmonious
thought. An old-time Gree; set down
amid the strident, metallic voices of
our occidental world would feel that
the Furies had seized either upon him
or the continent he was visiting.

SOME CAUSES FOR DROWNING.
Painting and Swallowing Water
Frequently ReBponsibIe for Denth.

Frequently Responsible for Death.
When u good swimmer, as so often
happens, dives into deep water and is
never seen again, his death is always
ascribed to Cramps" says the London
Mail. This view is, however, no longer
accepted by careful observers. Cramp
is frequent cause, no doubt, but by
no means the only one. Synccpe, or
fainting, for instance, is answcrab,c
for many deaths. Many people who
have been splendid swimmers, but wLo
have taken no violent exercisc for year
or two, plunge in after u ia fatigu;ngwG.li
and their heart simply fails to come up
to the scratch; they faint and down
they go. 1t should never be forEottc.,
that the GOODNESS of the water tlrcwa
an immense sudden strain upon thc
heart, and that, if there is anything like
flaw in that organ, it is pretty sure to
break down. Another cause OF large
number Of drowning accidents is the
entrance Of water spray into The lungs.
You are swimming in choppJ sea
against the wind. Suddenly wave
breaks in your face, and the wind blows
the spray down your throat. The re-.
suit Is terrible convulsivc effort OF tkr
lungs to eject the water, and instant
unconsciousness. You go down, and
people ascribe your loss to the one and
only "cramp."
