There was man OF the

There are great many who are
afraid to come even by night. The
test OF hero is to come in the day.

The one thing that men most fear
is public opinion. Many persons are
afraid to line themselves up at the

of losing some Of their trade, wheth-
or in the grocery, medicine, drygoods,

afraid of the opinion OF others in
Welding His hands for righteousness
making whip out OF some boughs OF
a tree. He cleaned up the money
changers and grafters in His fathers
temple.
His court was composed OF seventy
disciples; people were all coming to
hear Him, and the rulers were getting
jealous. Finally one of His followers
named Judas sold Him for thirty
pieces of silver and His life was sac
riiiced on the cross. We see the sol.
diers as they come to view His body
at sundown. and behold the cruel
spear thrust into His side. They break

HIS disciples have forsaken Him

John. the beloved disciple, cannot be

secures the consent Of PLATE, to place
the body in the throne OF sepulcher,

have been placed in the Valley of

In order to secure reform, some
