Death of John.

This lesson teaches the fearful power
of sin 1t binds the soul and it drives il
out to the most runous and shameless
deeds HerOd was weak and pas
sionate man. He had a conscience that
scourged him. but he was so bound by
his depraved nature that he disregarded
the warnings Of conscience and became
a monster in crime. The lesson shows us
to what awful depths woman may de-
Scend. She. a queen, had been rebuked
by peasant preacher. and she determin-
ed that this daring preacher should die.
To accomplish this, she exposed her
daughter, only child of tender years.

anything that she might ask; but 1t did
not prevent him from trampling justice
and righteousness in the mire.
In all this lessen there is no word of

Christ never spoke.

Power of Faith.

This is illustrated by the faith of ruler
of the synagogue and by that of poor
woman. The daughter OF the ruler of
the synagogue was dead. He believed
that Christ could restore her to life On
His way to the rulers home, the poor
woman. feeble and emaciated by the loss
of blood pressed through the crowd and
touched the hem % His garment. Christ
honored the faith OF both by granting
their desires. The child of the ruler was
restored TO life and the woman was
healed. Besides these. two blind men
besought Him TO restore their sight.
Jesus challenged their faith, and then, by
a touch He answered their prayer.

The Multitudes Fed.

This lesson gives us the two miracles
by which first 1900 and then 1000 We're
fed from few loaves and fishes. Tie
miracles are rich in their teaching. Pass
ing by their revelation of the sympathy
of Christ for all who are in need. they
teach the wonderful power of Christ over
nature. He is the Lord of the harvest.
BY His power the seed terminates. it
grows and ripens to the harvest. BUT
He who year after year produces the
harvest from the. grain, here produces
the loaves and fishes for the multitude in
a moment: not the grains. but the baken
loaf and the prepared fishes.
They teach, too, mans cooperation
with God in carrying out His plans. He
furnished the food and they bore it to
the people. In all this Jesus is teaching
that He is the bread of life. The food
that we eat day by day is a type of
Christ. If we would have spiritual life.
we must feed on Him in our hearts

Parable of the Sewer.

With this lesson we turn from miracles
to parallels; from works to words. In the
study of His life each has its place. For
tunately for us and for the church d.
large He has given us the interpreted
ton Of this parable. 1t is beautiful and
an impressive picture. In 1t Jesus IS Inc
husbandman casting precious seed In
the soil. The parable shows why, with
such a sower, there is often failure.
1t is because OF the soil, the thin SOIL
and the foul soil. In each of these there
must be a radical change. The hard
soil must be broken. the thin soil must
be deepened and the foul soil must ne
cleansed or there can be no harvest.
The fault is not Gods that men are not
saved The picture is true to life. 1t is
from the divine pencil. Its practical ap-
plication to each heart is the duty OF
both teacher and scholar.

the. sower has an enemy. He follows
Christ and sows darneI This is e. seed
that is poisonous and that produces a
poisonous harvest These seeds are so
united in the soil that they may not be
separated until the harvest. The lessons
are simple. God is not the author of
evil. Satan is the sower of tares in the
human heart. The church will be COM
posed of both good and bad until the
harvest, and the harvest is the end of
the world. There will then be a separa-
ton. complete and final. The tares will
be burned. They will be sent away into
punishment. The wheat will be gathered
into Gods garner, saved and blessed for
ever.

Two Sabbath Incidents.

These two incidents contain Christ
teaching concerning the Sabbath. In
the first the disciples the Sabbath
plucked the grain and rubbed il in
their hands to rid it Of the chaff and
then ate it, In the other Christ healed
a man in their synagogue. on the Sab
bath, who had a withered hand In
both instances Christ broke the tradi-
tiOn of the Jews. His enemies looking
for some pretext on. which they might
condemn Him. began at once their
plans for His destruction Jesus de-
Tended His course. and laid down the
law of the Sabbath. 1t is a day of
rest. and of worship. But il is lawful
to do good on the Sabbath day.

After all. what is a Bohemian?

After ALL what is a Bohemian?
As far as ] can make out, he il a
lingerer by the way. Devoting himself
to art and learning. he comes to prefer
the pleasure Of the journey to the tri
umph of arriving. His motto: Give me
the luxuries and 1 will do without the
necessities" amounts to this His poor
little luxury is leisure to prolong the
irresponsible life of the beginner
Yet there may be something more.
Perhaps the Bohemian sees too far
ahead.

Temperance Lesson.

For this lesson our committee went
back to the book of Proverbs. The
scripture chosen contains one of the most
terrible descriptions of the evils of alco-
hol TO be found in literature. 1t is not
only terrible, but it is true. Intemper-
ance is the cause of woe sorrow and
nameleSs ills. Ii makes a fool of all who
indulge in it, and it should be religiously
avoided.

shows His power over the air and over

sea. The fear of the disciples reveals
their weakness and the calm assurance
of the Master reveals His deity. The inn
