Lesson 4.-First Quarter, Janu-
airy II, 1918.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES
Text of the Lesson, Mark 2:1-12-
Memory Verse, Mark 2:5-Golden
Text, Mark 2:1o-Commentary Pre-
pared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. y

This lesson on the forgiveness of sins
Is found in Matt. 9 and Luke 8, as well
as in Mark. The necessity of the for
giveness of our sins is seen in Christs
commission that repentance and re-
mission of sins should be preached in
his name among all nations; in Peters
exhortation at Pentecost that they
should repent and be baptized in the
name of Jesus Christ for the remission
of sins, and in PaulS declaration at
Antioch that through this Man is
preached unto you the forgiveness OF
sins, and by him all that believe are
justified from all things duke "a AT;
Acts :3S; Is :3S, 39). On the occasion
Of the incident of our lesson he was
teaching in a house in Capernaum, and
there were Pharisees and doctors Of
the law sitting by which were come
out of every town of Galilee, and Jul
dea. and Jerusalem: and the power of
the Lord was present to heal them
duke 5 40. The meeting was dis
turbed b. men uncovering the roof to
let down through it a man sick of the
palsy, lying on a bed, whom four of
his friends had brought to Jesus, be-
neving that he would heal him. When
they could not reach Jesus with their
sick friend because of the multitude
about the house, their faith and perse-
verance took this method of accom-
plishing their object. The Pharisees
and the doctors were probably dis
turbed by this unusual proceeding, but
the Prince of Peace was surely calm
as usual. He had been preaching the
Word to all who could hear him, open
ing to them the Scriptures, as was his
custom duke "a :27, 40, but now he
turns to the sick man with the wonder
full words, ''Son, be of good cheer, thy
sins be forgiven thee" He was
brought that his body might be healed,
and many are thinking more of that
even now, than of the forgiveness of
their sins, but the healing of the soul
is the first and all-impOrtant thing.
Eye must be born again" is the essen
tial word for even a Nicodemus, and
the new birth includes the forgiveness
of sins. When we as sinners plead
guilty, and truly receive the Lord Je-
sus, putting all our trust in his great
sacrifice of himself for our sins, be-
lieving that his own self bore our sins
in his own body ca the cross, wounded
for our transgressions, bruised for'our
iniQuitieS, then we can rejoice that
we have been made children of God,
accepted in the Beloved, and in him
have redemption, the forgiveness of
our sins, with the assurance that they
shall never be mentioned to US (ROm.

Won Hindenburq "Junker."

"Junker' is philologically akin to
"Jonkheer'' and has a quasi-equivalent
in the English Squire" The Junker
ed property, especially land, says an
exchange. The word is used to de-
scribe that large class of Prussians
who come of noble, seminole or at
least old and good" families and
whose worldly possessions are such as
to give them as appreciable stake in
the government. Won Eindenburg is a
fine example Of the Junker; Luden-
dorff, his collaboration, is not a Junker
by birth, however much a one he may
be by taste.

The cold Of the present week has dis
heartened the early gardener and cooled
his srdor somewhat, but the good old
summer time is not far off and the
weather man promises us that this is
our last cold spell. Our most dangerous
spring frost and most hurtful freezes
generally come in April and while we
have had beautiful spring weather for
a month, this cold is not later than US
ual and it is not so surprising, even tho
it was hurtful and Objectionable.

visable to transplant sweet potato

plenty Of plants this season, instead of
such scarcity as we have had in the
past two seasons.

A few rows of corn with Scotia or
Kentucky Wonder or other good ru n.
ming bean planted to run on the corn
will furnish an abundance of snaps of
the finest quality and will give just as
much and as good corn as if no beans
were planted with it. It is an easy
way to provide snaps for the family.
