in the world who practically manages

To look at this little dark haired wo-
man. dressed in the most fashionable
and most feminine of clothes, from the

that night was,
therefore, merely the same penalty
that has been against all mankind for
six thousand years. The tlrst-borns,
retiring In good health, were corpses
before morning, the death sentence
coming upon them more suddenly than
1t otherwise would have done.
This plague did not touch the homes
of the Israeltes. Their first-borns
were passed over, spared, by the Al
mighty; hence the name Passover. BY
Divine command the Israelites made
the anniversary of this event histori-
cal. Every Israelite shows his faith in
God and his confidence In this record
of Divine deliverance of his forefa-
Tiers, when he celebrates the Passover.
The Passover's Real Meaning.
Israers experiences In being passed
over were allegorical. As type they
represented the experiences or Gods
Elect-Spiritual Israel, Gods sanity
people, gathered from all nations and
denominations. The chief members
came from Natural Israel, but no ma
ton can lay exclusive claims. 1t Is
an elect class, chosen along the line
of character alone.
Spiritual Israel was represented In
the first-borns of fleshly Israel, passed
over in that night. The next morning
Israel went forth under the leader
ship of the first-borns, who subse-
quently became the priestly tribe, typ
ically representing the Royal Priest
hood, whose Royal High Priest Is the
glorified Messiah.
Just as the frst-borns of Israel were
not the only ones saved from Egyptian
bondage, so the Church of the First
borns Hebrews 1928 will not be the
only ones saved from the bondage of
sin and death, symbolized by that
Egyptian bondage The preservation
of the Firstbor implies the deliver
ance of the remainder.
'lsraeI My First Born"
Since deliverance from the power OF
sin and death was of Gods grace, and
not an obligation of justice, He had a
perfect right to determine long In ad-
vance that His blessings should reach
mankind through Abraham's Seed.
Unnoticed by the Jews, the Lord indi-
Gated that Abraham would have two
seeds; one a Heavenly, the other an
earthly. Thus He said, 'Thy seed
shall be ID as the stars of heaven,
and (2) lE the sand Of the sea shore" I"
God, in His wisdom, did not explain
to Abraham the significance of this
figurative statement We. however, are
permitted to see the meaning even Of
this feature of the Promise
The stars represent the Heavenly
Seed of Abraham-Messiah and His
Church The sand of the sea shor
represents the vast multitude who will
ultimately be saved from sin and
death, and recovered to Divine favor
and everlasting life in the Messianic
Kingdom. Gods providences were to
the Jew first as respects spiritual priv
ileges, and will be to the Jew first as
respects earthly privileges-Restitu-
ton to human perfection.
First Borns Blood Protected.
Let us not fail to note that Divine
favor toward the first-borns Of Israel
was not without blood. Indeed, the
whole lesson of the Old Testament
Scriptures is that without the she'd
ding of blood there is no remission" Of
sins. The Israelites took a lamb of

The color Of the hair is due to iron,
which is picked up by the cells of the

Mrs. Brush Shares Honor.
Mrs. John 7, Brush, owing to the
death of her husband, who was the
president and principal owner of the
New York National league team, now
shares distinction with Mrs. Britton a.
a baseball queen. Mrs Brush owns the
controlling interest in the New York
club and virtually has all the execu-
tive powers of her late husband. She
has not become as active by far, how
ever, as Mrs Britton in taking up base
ball engineering. Her son-in-law. Har-
ry n. Hampstead, is the active presi-
dent of the club.
If Mrs. Brush ultimately takes an
active part in the affairs Of her base
ball team it is likely she viii have big
