1t is a new tune that we find Paul
using In this lesson. But the peculiar
situation at Corinth has demanded in
slant and decisive action on his part.
So bold have his opponents in that
church become that it looks as though
the entire structure of his work would
be undermined. Paul dare not stand
by and see this happen. Yet the only
effective way Of combating this evil
thing is a way that he h%esitates to I'M
dertake. In fact. we can hear the note
Of apology under all that the apostle
says In this passage. Yet when he is
done every allegation of his enemies
a been met. and the way is open for
a further ministry of power among the
Corinthians. In the opening verses of
this chapter Paul refltes some of the
false charges made against him and
boldly declares that those who have
made them have been ministers of the
evil one Then he goes on Indirectly
to reprove the Corinthians for having
fallen under the spell of leaders who
owed their leadership to their powers
of self esteem and who had continually
exalted themselves over the church.

Curious Raincoats,

When rain falls in tropical countries
there is no mistake about it. The rain
comes as if it meant to sweep away all
such trities as trees and bushes. A
man who goes out in this deluge must
protect himself, but he finds that a
macintosh of the lightest kind has
its disadvantages, for if 1t keeps the
rain out it also keeps the heat in.
The raincoat devised by the Mexi.
cans is called a "chino'' and Is so Dor.
Gus that the heat of the body readily
escapes, while, owing to its construc-
ton, it keeps the wearer dry. The
chino Is made of numberless long, mar.
row strips of dried palm leaf, one end
of each strip being woven into u light
fabric and the rest falling loose. The
wearer of this garment rustles as he
walks. and the rain pattering upon it
makes Il pleasant sound. Arrived at
the house. he takes off his palm leaf
hat. shakes it and hangs it up to dry.
Then he slips off his chino, shakes that
also II hangs it up. He himself is un-
touched by the rain. but the chino as
it hangs up looks like a huge. damp
brown cassock.

Great care is used to protect the
