BEGIN THE YEAR WITH CHRIST
No Period Can Be Happy or Beautiful
 Where the Lord Is Left Out.

One reason why life is so serious 1t all. Jesus hinted at the large mean ing of this truth when he said that for every idle word that men speak they must give account If for the idle words-light. trivial, empty words how much more for the words which are filled with bitterness, or with malice. or with the evil of falsehood of envy, of irreverence! We are not done with life as we live 1t; we shall meet 1t all again.
 These things being true, how should we enter upon the new year? For one thing, we should begin 1t with Christ. Who is sufficient for the seri- ous problems of living without the di- vine grace and help? There is no oth- CT hand that can guide us safely through the new and strange experi- ences.
 Another suggestion for prosperous new year is that we should fill it's every hour with duty well done. Duty is a large word It includes ali that we owe to Ged-honor, love- obedi- ence, faithfulnssE 1t includes all that we owe to men. No year can be hap py or beautiful with God left out.
 The only way to have yeas at its close stainless and beautiful. is to keep the days. as they pass. all pure and lovely with the loveliness of holy, useful living. It is in little days that our years come to us, and we have but the one small fragment to fill and beautify at a time. God never gives us years, or even weeks. He gives us only days. If we live each day well, all our life will, in the end be radiant and beautiful.--Rev. J. R. Miller. D. D.

EASTER AND
 REVIEW
Ss.lsy School Lesssu for March z7. 1910
Specially Arranged for This Paper

GOLDEN TEXTS. .-"Jesus went, about all Galilee, teaching fr their synaEoeues, and preaching the gospel of the Kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. Matt. 4:23.
 T am he that hveth, and was dead; and. behold, I am alive for ever more Rev. 1:1s.
 Suggestion and. Practical Thought.
 These two Golden Texts" express the truth and suggest the methods of one of the best and most interesting of Easter lessons.
 For they teach us the most impor- tant truths we need to know for our life here and for our life forevermore:
 That the Jesus who once lived in Palestine and did the works we have been studying,
 Showing the love of God for man,
 Teaching the eternal truths of heaven,
 Expressing in visible forms the lov- ing kindness of our Heavenly Father,
 Setting us perfect example,
 And giving his life that we should not perish but have eternal life,
 This same Jesus is really living to- day as he was then on earth.
 He is with us now as when he dwelt in Galilee,
 Is now inspiring the same life,
 Teaching the same truths,
 Doing the same works,
 Is our present King, Saviour, Helper, Guide and Friend
 To realize these things will make a blessed Easter day The teacher can take tip the lessons one by one with his scholars and show that the Risen Saviour is our present Saviour.
 We are tempted Jesus is touched with the feeling of our infirmities' since The was tempted in all points like as we are, yet without sin"
 We study the laws of his kingdom, and we know he who "as Son learned obedience by the things which he sui fered," became, unto all them that obey him, the author of eternal saliva tion," for he dwelleth with you. and shall be in you"
 The review of Lessons ". to K will bring these truths tnFrffnd.
 We have been studying his good deeds to the bodies and souls of men. Jesus the living Saviour, is continually here and now fulfilling his promise, He that belieyeth on me. the works that do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because l go to the Father"
 Lessons X. to XII. show what these works are.
