suitable time for making Jesus a
prisoner This plan was adopted and
carried out.
IRE Feast-the Amounting.
Jesus and His disciples were the
guests of Lazarus. Martha and Mary
at the house of Simon the Leper, who
probably was dead. Jesus was the
guest OF honor. The supper had pro-
gressed when Mary entered with a
vial OF very expensive perfume, which
she poured upon Jesus head and, ac-
cording 10 anOther account also upon
His feet. The house was filled with
the perfume
Then came O voice of murmuring-
"Whv this waste?" st. John tells us
that the leader of the murmurers was
Judas. The Apostles afterwards
learned that his speech was hypo-
critical. AT the time Jesus under
stood the anger which led Judas
openly to insult one of their hos
tesses st. John tells us that Judas
was angry because he failed to get
the money himself AS treasurer of
the l,ttle company. he carried the
money-bag. and, as they afterward
learned, he was n thief.-John 1886.
Poor Mary must have felt crushed
when she heard the harsh criticism.
But Jesus came TO her defense. Sure
ly the Masters approval comforted
her; and wherever the Gospel has
been preached, this story OF her low
ing devotion. TO the extent of consi-
dcrahle cost and probably consider
able self-denial. has been told as a
memorial of her not merely TO honor
her. but especially TO inspire and en-
courage others of Gods people TO the
obtaining and exercising Of a love
that delights IN service, yea, In costly
sacrifice.

with the Jewish religious leaders.
Thus these felt themselves sponsors
for the people. They perceived that
their hold upon the more ignorant
Jews was being impaired by Jesus
teachings, They felt so satisfied with
themselves as claimed representa-
tives of God and as Intermediates
with the Roman government that they
did not think il worth while to in
quire respecting Jesus.
Many of them had lost all faith in
God and future life. Others retain
ing faith in God and His promised
Kingdom, thought afliliati1n with the
Roman Empire the best way to pre-
pare their nation for Messianic glo-
ries. From this viewpoint Jesus was
a disturbor OF the peace. His man
ner, no less than His teachings. re-
proved them and tended To break
their influence with the people.
The religious leaders had heard
that Jesus was coming to the Feast
Our lesson tells that they discussed
how He could wisely be gotten rid Of.
They seem TO have been unanimous
in believing that His destruction
would be for the good of the Lords
cause, as they misunderstood that
cause. Another Scripture tells us
that Caiaphas, the high priest, had
declared II expcdient that one man
perish rather than the nation. John
l1s49-52). They fancied that Jesus
teaching, it allowed to proceed would
certainly awaken the people to faith
in the Messianic Kingdom and pos
sibly incite some fanaticai uprising
The religious teachers had murder
I'm their hearts. II was merely a
question Of how TO accomplish the
murder and deceive the people. so as
not to provoke those who had begun
TO exercise faith IN Jesus Such was
their mental attitude when Judas
went to them privately, suggesting

MARY'S SWEET PERFUME.
Mnrk MIL -nri

"She hath done what she cOuId."-
Verse 5.
The last FIVE days of Jesus minis
try are full Of interest. The incident
marking our lesson occurred at the
close of the Jewish Sabbath preced-
ing our Lords crucifxion. Jesus and
His disciples had come to the Pass
over, He telling them that He would
there be crucified, but they thinking
that He spoke hguratively. Indeed.
at no time during Jesus ministry did
His crucifxion seem less likely than
when It occurred.
Multitudes were at Jerusalem to
celebrate the Passover Feast. Thou
sands of them had heard Of Jesus;
and many of them had been healed by
Him. Just a short time before, a
considerable number had discussed
the propriety of proclaiming Jesus
king. Indeed, on the very day after
the incident of this lesson, the null
titude acclaimed Him king, crying
out, "HOsanna in the highest to the
Son of David, who coneth in the
name of Jehovah!"
But the Master knew that the mass
es would be only as children in the
hands of the great teachers of the
time; and that there was murderous
hatred against Him amongst the
chief priests. Scribes and Pharisees.
True, they hated Him without just
cause, but they had come to hate Him
from their own viewpoint
The Attitudes Of Religious Teachers.
Although the Jewish nation had
lost liberty long before and had no
prospect Of regaining Il, nevertheless
not since the days of Solomon had
their political outlook been so favor
able. The Roman Emperors had
manifested willingness to cooperate
