Verses 10, IA call to the ministry.
Capernaum was situated on the main
caravan route from Damascus to Jeru-
salem and on to Egypt and the Medi-
terranean; it was also a center of the
fishing industry and a port of entry of
much importance. by the seaside"
He went where the people were to be
found. "And he taught them" He had
only one SUBJECTIVE kingdom of God
and the need for repentance-but he ex-
pounded it by parallels and proverbs,
by miracles of healing and sympathetic
ways of intercourse with all classes
and conditions of people. 1t was to be
expected that "all the multitude re-
sorted unto him"-some in amaZement,
others in admiration and not a few in
affection. His influence was also spread
ing among the 'unchurched." The re-
ceipt of custom" Capernaum was an
important toll station where customs
duties were levied and taxes collected
for the tetrarch of Galilee. The work
of collecting the taxes was farmed out
to men OF wealth: they In turn suhlct
the districts to contractors, who gener-
ally employed the natives of the place
as collectors of the rents and taxes.
These mental officers were especially
detested In Palestine, where the pay
ment of taxes to a foreign and heather
government was resented for religious
and patriotic reasons. These publicans,

Matthew burned his bridges behind

On Time at Last
By RALPH N. GROVER

A slight, giriish form enveloped IN a
long, loose evening coat restlessly pac-
ed the broad veranda Of Greymere inn.
Grace O'Rourke was lovely at all
times, but tonight her Irish blue eyes
flashed an unusual brilliancy. which
made her positively irresistible.
Better Join u.s." called Elizabeth
Dwyer as the latter left the porch es
corted by a 1.-THE youth.
1t was the night Of the annual ball
given to the guests. Grace hesltated
for a moment.
"Oh, Julian will be along soon, Eliza
BETH" she cried. Hes late, as usual,
but Wen meet you at the dance later"
Other couples followed the first, but
still Grace O'Rourke. the belle Of Grey
mere inn, paced the veranda. Finally
a mans voice greeted her.
IT say, Miss O'Rourke," he suggest
ed, "1et me cut out that tardy Haw-
thorne, won't you? Come along to the
dance with me }"
Again Grace hesitated. Down in the
farthest corner of her heart she really
and truly cared for Julian Hawthorne,
but he was never on time for any APP
pointment, and here was a choice OPP
portunity to teach him a bitter lesson.
Then, too, George Uhl was a splendid
dancer. Impulsively she accepted his
offer, and half an hour later found
them in the midst of the summer
crowd dancing and apparently oblivi-
u of all else on earth.
The ball was at its height when Ju-
liam Hawthorne entered the room. In
the doorway he leaned against the sill
as If physically tired, and the lids hung
heavily owe his black eyes.
AS George and Grace passed him lost
in the ecstasy of a dreamy waltz his
gaze followed the two closely, and a
satirical smile spread over his face.
When the dance was over Hawthorne
slowly crossed the room.
MAY / have the next dance, Grace?'
he asked, without seeming to notice
Uhl, who stood by her side.
do you think you could be on time
to claim itT' parted Grace, with sting
ing sarcasm.
4 am here now, waiting" Haw-
thorne answered as he extended his
left arm.

have. over women who truly love them!

man who took few chances In life, but
he would have wagered that Grace
O'Rourke loved him at hat moment
despite her cool rejection Of his suit.
Hawthorne led her to Uhl, who was
waiting to claim his dance, and then
went up to the smoking Long
he sat and smoked In silence, when
suddenly he realized that the dressing
rooms were filing up with guests pre-
pairing to go home. The dance was
over. A man suggested that he smelled
smoke, but the idea was laughed down.
81 guess it's Hawthorne's bitterroot
cigar that smells like fire." sang out
Grace's partner. And the listeners all
laughed in reply.
Hawthorne slipped on his light over
coat and sauntered toward the closed
door that led into the hall. He opened
it upon a curling cloud of smoke. At
the same instant screams came from
all directions. Men and women were in
pandemonium. Uhl was the first man
downstairs, his one idea being self
preservation, but above the roa Of
creams Julian Hawthorne's voice rang
out clear and loud.
please keep back. Calm yourselves,
and NJ one will be hurt"
They gave him no heed. Madly they
tore ahead, fighting like maniacs. All
made for the main stairway. Gowns
were torn, arms were broken and an
kles sprained In the effort to get out of
the burning building. Once more Haw-
thorne raised his voice above the hum.
81 beg of you-I"- His voice stop
ped short, for clinging to his arm was
Grace.
Save me, Julian, DEAR" she pleaded.
Silently he dragged her into one of
the dressing rooms and opened a large
door leading to a back staircase.
1--WE tried to head them all off this
way. but they would not listen. But IL
l can save you. darling, l will have
been on time just once"
Grace gave his arm a loving little
hug. which meant more to the man
than all the words she could have ut
tered. Close to each other they de-
scended the. dark stairs which led
through the servants quarters. The
rooms were deserted. and they easily
reached the back door. Hawthorne
turned and held Grace close for a mo-
ment. There was no time for words
just then. And, standing alone in the
darkness, she watched him Join the
ranks OF fire fighters.

There was something within Grace
O'Rourke that night which told her to
reject the arm he extended, but that
greater something-love-made her ac-

whlrling round and round the room.

"As usual, my dear Julian, you are
too late" announced Grace, with as
sumed nonchalance. 1--WE just prom
ised to marry some one else"
Hawthorne lighted a cigarette and
said nothing. If Grace expected a
TRADE about the fckleness of women
she was disappointed. Hawthorne was
the type Of man to take defeat grace
fully, but he did not fail to note the
unsteadiness Of Grace's step as they

isees, were deeply interested in the
teaching of Jesus, with his large and
humane views of life, and they were
eager to learn from him the way of
life. "They said unto his disciples"
Jesus had read their thoughts In con-
nection with the cure of the paralytic
in a way hat made these Pharisees
and scribes hesitate to meet him open
ly in argument. Their question was a
yelled criticism of his methods, and
Jesus at once answered 1t. mo need of
the physician" In quoting this popular
p~roverb Jesus practically announced
himself as a spiritual physician whose
business was not with they that are
whole" at least in their own estimation,
like the Pharisees, but with "they that
are sick" like the sinners who were fol-
lowing him. Matthew here adds a quo
tation from Hos. vi, 6. Sin is here re-
garded as a disease. Compare lisa. i, 5;
lii, 5. Jesus then definitely declared
that he came to call" the sin sick ito
repentance and healing.
Verses 1S-22.-A conference on duty.
The feast in the home of Matthew
was doubtless the occasion for a dis
cussion on the subject of fasting. The
law required that fasting should be
practiced once a year, on the day of
atonement Qev. xvi. 29-3D, but an ex-
cess of zeal induced the Pharisees to
practice it twice every week. Compare
Luke xviii, u. THE disciples of
John" were also scrupulous in the mat
ter of fasting, in harmony with the
stern and ascetic spirit of their teach
er. Thy disciples fast not" 1t was
urged as an objection that Jesus did
not inculcate this religious practice,
Children of the bride chamber
These were the companions OF the
bridegroom who assisted him in bring
ing the bride to his house. 1t was q
time of joyous festivity and not. Of
sorrowful fasting. "The days will
come" AS there is a limit to nuptial
rejoicing, so also will it be when he
shall be taken away" from his dis
ciples by death. A different course of
life will then be followed by them
when there will be room for fasting.
New cloth that has not been fulled,
soaked in water, will shrink. If 1t is
sewed to IAN old garment" a new and
worse rent will be made. "Old bottles"
-"wine skins" Their leather has be-
come hardened. If new wine that
has not yet fermented is poured into
them it will burst the skins. The new
spirit of his teaching and life must be
expressed In forms that are appropri-
ate to it, else there will be i~nconsist-
ency and ineongruity. Jesus always
recognized the fitness of things. In
using these expressive illustrations he
did not mean to imply that the old
ways of thought and life were to be
set aside simply because they were old.
He reyerenced the past and knew that
the present could not have been with
out the past. What he meant was that
the spirit of bondage to ceremonial
laws and regulations can never be in
harmony with the spirit of love, which
works as an inspiration and does not
make bargains. The Pharisees repre-
sented the servant In the family, while
Jesus represented the son who loves
and enjoys the home.

Two boiled potatoes passed through kitch-

Let onion atoms Turk within the bowl
And, half suspected. animate the whole.

Distrust the condiment that bites so soon,
But deem 1t not, than man OF herbs, a

To add a double quantity OF salt;
Four times the spoon with oil from Lucca
crown
And twice with vinegar procured from

And lastly DER the favored compound toss
A magic soupcon OF anchovy sauce.
