FORM BIBLE CLASSES.

Bible Glasses for adults are not sec
ono to any other department of the
church for developing it's strength and
usefulness. The church that is without
one is neglecting one of it's chief oppor-
tunlt1es. In many instances such class
vies in popularity with the preaching
service. Men attend it who are not
members of the church and do not at
tend its other services. AS a feeder
to the church it has no rivals. We
have known single young mems class
which has added fifty members to the
church. constantly increasing num-

STORY CORNER.

A gentleman driving an automobile
on country road, says a writer in a.
Virginia newspaper, met an od-fashion-
ed high carriage in which was an old
fashioned couple. They jumped to the
ground, and the automobile came to a
halt. The gentleman of the car step
ped forward, and offered to help lead
the horse past the machine. ooh. never
mind the horse, never mind the horse"
said the old gentleman. you lead the
old lady past that thing, and I'll get the
horse by all right. Christian Register,
In a place in New Jersey the town Of
hcers had just put some fire-extinguish-
ers in their big buildings. One day one
of the buildings caught fire. and the ex-
tinguishers failed to do their work. A
few days later at the town meeting
some citizens tried to learn the reason.
AFTER they had freely discussed the sub
ject, one of them said, "Mr. Chairman.

gu1shers be examined ten days before

MISFIT TEXTS.

1t began with my first sermon.
My chum in the Connecticut seminary,
had invited me to go out alone and
preach in his pulpit my first sermon.
L accepted the invitation, though with
fear and trembling. But what was the
text employed in all innocence for this
first trembling pulpit appearance? For
God hath not given us the spirit of
fear, but of power and of love and of a
sound mind
At the close of my middle year 1 ap-
peared in pastorless Massachusetts
church hoping L might supply its pulpit
for the summer, and this was my laconic
text, "One thing thou Iackest."
ITO be sure" said a listener as
came down from the pulpit after the
service, "and possibly you can supply
that lack for us this summer" 1 did.
And when August came 1 was given
two weeks vacation, during which the
church was to decide whether or not to
extend me a call. HE that is not for
me is against me-" was my parting text
How can we vote against you after
that text?" said a friend to me after
service. And fortunately for me, only
one or two dared to run athwart the
texts implied appeal.
A few years ago 1 was invited to
from Boston, and unthinkingly chose a
text for my evening sermon which oc-
casioned the following conversation:
. How did you like the sermon to-
night?" said one deacon to another as
they walked down the aisle after SER
vice.
90, very well, the sermon was good
enough, but wasn't its text little too
previous? 'Ye have not chosen me,
but / have chosen you"
Two years later l preached in a church
still nearer Boston which had already
unsuccessfully extended a number of
calls, and this was the text used harm
lessly in my own pulpit the previous
Sunday, from which I intended to
preach: art thou he that should
come, or do we look for another"
Fortunately saw the point in time for
a substitution.

DAILY HOME READINGS.

At the beginning of Passover week
Jesus is at Bethany and the disciples
ask Him where they shall prepare for
the Passover. He sends Peter and John
to a certain man in Jerusalem, whose
name is not given, and says, tell him
"The teacher saith, "My time is at hand,
l keep the Passover at thy house with
my disciples The man welcomed
them and large upper room furnished
and ready, was assigned them. They
made the necessary preparations, get
ting the lamb and having it killed in the
temple court, providing the unleavened
bread, and whatever else was needed.
This was on Thursday evening, April
A. D. 80 1t was to be the last Pass
over-that which was type of Christ's
redeeming word, from the time the
children of Israel left Egypt, until now,
-henceforth the type will be no long
er needed, for, on the morrow the
antitpye the Lamb of God that taketh
away the sin of he world, will be slain.
Christ and his disciples gather in
this upper room about sunset on Thurs
day, while preparing to take their
places at the table, a contention arose
as to which of them is accounted to be
greatest'-a spirit utterly contrary to
the spirit of their Master. The same
spirit is shown in the neglect of each
one to offer to wash the fact of the other
"a custom necessary on account of the
neat and dust and the use of sandals.
Jesus rebukes this spirit by rendering
thls humble service himself, telling us,
nave given you an example, that We
also should do as I have done to YOU"
Inc world has learned much of the dig
hiVy OF lowly service and of helpfulness
to others
While they were eating the Passover
supper Jesus said unto them, verify,
say unto you, that one of you shall
tpetray me-" They were deeply stirred
ny such an announcement, and exceed
ihgly sorrowful; it speaks well for their
rue humility; that each man fearful
ulat 1t might be he, instead of being
suspicious of another. Judas had al

Once more, and my experiences in
this line are brought down to date. I
came within an-but let me not use
such an unministerial expression-I
very nearly used this text as my first
candidating sermon in the pulpit which
l now occupy. 1t was the text of one
of the two sermons which 1 brought
with me for Sunday morning use:
81 am sure that when I come to you
1 shall come in the fu1lness of the bless
ing of the gospel of Christ" A very
good text, but 1 was by no means sure
that they would want me to come to
them at all, and it would be just as we'll
not to try to hasten matters in following
apostolic precedent
If any of my brethren have had
similar undersigned misincidence-if L
may coin a word-in the use of texts,

and enjoy their confusion as several
congregations have no doubt enjoyed

Pastor Wagner of 1.-The Simple Life
has published my Impression of Ameri-
Ca" His great impression was the abb
sence of simplicity in the English Ian
guage. He says he had two oceans to
cross, the Atlantic and the English
grammer. He was impressed by the hos
pitality of America by the New York
"sky-scrapers. A reviewer says: "The
American houses pleased him. He was
pleased by the beds, the bathrooms, the
varieties of soap. All the chapters are
marked by bits Of vivid description run

book is full of the pleasant spirit. 1t is
keen and generous. 1t Will delight a

Assaulted at Night.

A. r. Ritchie, Superintendent of the
j. & @. G. e. |. Co. mines at Soldier and
Sykesville, had been at the Sykesville
shaft Wednesday night and was walk
ing down through Sykesville to catch
the last car for Soldier when two men
walked up behind him and one of them
struck him on back of head with a sand
bag. The blow knocked Mr.. Ritchie
down, but did not knock him uncon-
scious. Had the blow been little
lower down it would have accomplished
the work intended by the assailants.
Mr. Ritchie quickly got on his feet
again, but before he was fully straight
ened up one of the men shot at him and
falling to hit him his assaiants ran
away.
