Text Of Lesson, Luke &. 1881. Gold
en- Text, Mark xii. 81.
The record Of the good Samaritan is
found only here, but the question with
which the lesson opens "What shall l
do to inherit eternal life:" Is found
also in chapter xviii, IS, and the par
allel passages in Matt. xix, 1G; Mark
x, II. Both in this lesson and in the
story Of the rich young ruler our Lord
directed them to the law, for there
can be no life eternal without the con-
viction Of sin. He came not to call
the righteous, those who think they
are righteous, but sinners to repen-
lance Matt. tx, 13).
The only Saviour revealed in Scrip
ture is a saviour for sinners. one who
came to save lost people. There have
been, and always are, those who go
about to establish their own righteous
ness, being ignorant Of the righteous
ness of God (tom. x, -. That which
is necessary to enter the kingdom is
the perfect righteousness Of a perfect
law rs explained by our Lord il what
Is called the Sermon IN the Mount. No
mere man ever had Of himself such a
righteousness; the Lord Jesus Christ
alone fulfilled every jot and title Of
the law Matt. Y. 49,. and when n
one pleads guilty and to him
and receives him they have in him
an absolutely perfect righteousness
which God has accepted.
That the law cannot save, but only
c~onvinces of sin. See Rom. Iii, 10, 20;
Gal. iii. q. %. That Christ bare our
sins and is made unto us righteousness.
See II Cor. v, q; l Cor. l. 80, 81; Rom.

the first verse as the last.
The lawyer was cornered. as we say,
and would fain justify himself, like
those in Luke xvi, 10. 1t is more fat

the good opinion of men rather than

The thieves suggest the devil and his

The priest and Levite who passed

any form Of righteousness to help the
sinner who is not only half dead. but
wholly dead in trespasses and sins

When Taft was president Thomas ].
Morley Of Pittsburgh matched up we'll
with him in both bulk and looks. Many
times the latter wcs mistaken for the
president in public gatherings.
A most remarkable case Of dual re-
semblance is that Of King George of
England and the ear Of Russia, who
are cousins. Their pictures are often
mistaken for II another. The kaiser
Of Germany and n chimney sweep
were matched up about u year ago.
The chimney sweep proved every bit
as good a man as the kaiser us far
as looks went. especially when the
sweep ~masqueraded in a borrowed ma
val uniform. In that outfit he might
easily have fooled dignitaries Of the
emperor's own court.
The candidacy Of Woodrow Wilson
for the presidency unearthed his double
in Rufus d. Whiting. then deputy pay
master Of the finance department Of
Brooklyn. Mr.. Whiting has often been
cheered by crowds who have mistak-
en- him for the president.
A New Yor! professional man writes
as follows:
"A year or two ago l started for the
theater In the subway with my wife
and two other women. We had no
sooner sat down than Il man opposite,
with three or four women in his
charge, looked ut me and began to
laugh. l saw the resemblance be-
tween him and me. and so did the
women in his charge and in my charge.
We were both dressed in evening
clothes and looked absolutely alike. 1t
was so apparent and such 4 joke that
we got up and gravely shook hands
and lifted II hats to each other, much
to the amusement OF the whole car
full of folks"
And-but why 90 on?
You have your double somewhere.
Not exactly-no, for here is the pecul-
lar thing. Not v twins Of one
birth look exactly alike. There is al
ways a little difference between them.
One nose is always more convex or
concave than the other, or the ear lobe
is n little longer. But who ever no.
tees an ear unless it is 4 deformity.
Can you tell what shape your wife's
is right now, offhand? Well. think a
little. You can't even now. OF course
not. No one ever can.
Iet it is the ear more than any other
feature, says Chief Mc(:arr. that the
trained ~criminologist looks ut. The
eyes. the nose. the mouth-these may
be the same in two men. But it is not
so with the ear. The ear is distinctive,
individual. identifying as Il thumb
mark.
The unframed eye sees the ensem-
bic and gets impressions: it is indif-
ferent to detail.

Look out, the law is about to grab
you! You are wanted for a serious
crime. You answer in every detail to
the description of an evildoer. But
perhaps the hand laid on your shoulder
is not the heavy hand of the law. 1t
may be the timid fingers Of some one
who thinks he has recognized in you
a celebrity-the governor Of a state, a
senator, a congressman, banker, brok-
er or Indian chief. You may be the
duplicate in looks Of any OF these.
Consequently you are in danger Of
being mistaken for a thief as origi-
nany stated, or being pestered by Gu
rious folk for no other reason than
that some one who looked like you
had to go and get famous.

There is nothing like fame to bring

focus Of those who believe they have

ground for that belief. Roosevelt,
Taft and Wilson have all found their

In the American Magazine Mrs. Mar

The possibility of an intersectional
game between the champions Of the
Eastern league and the western c0n

In basketball circles. Secretary Ralph

Secretary L. j. Cooke Of the western
conference regarding a series next
March. Efforts to bring the two cham

worst things a man can do If he hopes

man from C~offeysville, Kan. "but It

II is estimated that close to 5000
troublesome pests were killed in the
big rabbit drive in the Deer Flat sec
ton Thursday. Over 300 men and
boys participated in the drive, in spite
of the fact that the day was one
of the coolest Of the season, and the
event provided excellent sport. The
drive started at o'clock and ended
at the upper dam of the Deer Flat
reservoir, natural corral, about 5
in the afternoon. The slaughter at the
finish was fast and furious, the rab-
bits apparently preferring TO take
their chances in multitudes in break
ing through the lines rather than in
plunging into the reservoir. Stores
in Nampa closed Thursday afternoon
for the occasion and seven big wagon
loads at sportsmen left here at 1890
for the meeting places, This attend
ance was augmented by a crowd from
Caldwell and people from the ranches
in the vicinity Of the drive.
