"Now about tlie midst of tho feast .Tcsu* wont tip into the temple and thought It. was the feast of tabernacles, and His brethren who did not believe in Jlim had in a sort: of sneering way advised Him to yo it]) to the feast. His reply was, "'My timo is n.^ yet come," so they went without. Him. lutt lie went tip later, and as lie taught the Jews wondered at His knowledge and His teaching, as IIo had not been to their schools. His reply to them was, "My doctrine is not Mine, but. His that sent Me" (verse 1(5). He took no credit for His words or works. He sought no glory for Himself. 28. "Then cried .lesus in the temple as He taught, saying, Yo both know Me, and yo know whence I am. and 1 am not come of Myself, bur, He that sent. Mo is true, whom ye knqw not." They had said, Wo know this man whence lie is, but when Christ cometii no man knoweth whenco He is (verse 27). They knew that Tie was from Nazareth and of humble parentage, and that was all they professed to know, but if they had been honont they •would have said. We know that Thou arta teacher come from God (John iii, 2). 29. "But I know Him, for lam from Him, and He hath sent Me." He said again, "As the Father knoweth Me, even so know I the Father" (John s, 15) ancl again, "No man knoweth the Son but the Father neither knoweth any man the Father save tho Son and He to whomsoever tho Son will reveal Him (Math, xi, 27). In His prayer Ho said, "O righteous Father, the world hath not known Thee, but I have known Thee, and these have known that Thou hast sent Me" (John xvii, 25). 30. "Then they sought to take Him, but no man laid hands on Him because His hour was not yet come." Many a time would they have taken Him, but they could not touch Him till the appointed time. When they did finally take Him, it was because He allowed them to, and when Ho died Ho freely gave up His life. He Laid it down of Himself they could not take it from Him (John x, IS). 31. "And many of the people believed on Ilim and said, When Christ cometh will He do more miracles than these which this man hath done?" While some believed and some believed not and many who professed to believe turned back and walked no more with Him (chapter vi, 66) Ho kept steadily on bearing faithful testimony and doing the Father's works and will, sure that all whom tho Father gave to Him would come unto Him (chapter vi, 37) and that Ho would see of the travail of His soul and be satisfied (Isa. liii, 11). 32. "The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning Him, and tho Pharisees and the chiof priests sent officers to take Him,." They might have remembered that a certain king of Syria did his best to take Elisha, but in vain, or that Ahab did his best to find Elijah, hut also failed that. Sennacherib would have taken Jerusalem, but could not. When will the enemies of God stop imagining vain things:- Not till tho antichrist, yet to be. manifested, is destroyed, and satan shut up in the pit, and even after that there shall he enemies of God until satan is finally cast into the lake of lire and the kingdom comes. iili. "Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while a:n 1 witli you, and then I go unto Him that sent Me. The time was short until M.-would i_'ive Himself up nnd

let them take Him and kill Him, but even in death Ho would go to the Father, and after the resurrection He would in His glorified body ascond to the Father. For more than 30 years Ho had willingly absented Himself from His home in glory, bearing all manner of humiliation and scorn for our sakes, and soon He was to become our sin oiTering. bearing our sins in His own body on the cross. 3-J-. Ye shall seek Mo and shall not find Mo, and where I am thither yo cannot come." In chapter viii, 21, He says: I go My way, and ye shall seek Me and shall die in your sins. Whither I go yo cannot come." In verse 24 of the same chapter Ho says, "If yo believe not that I am He, yo shall die i:i your sins." Now is tho timo to seel: Him, for it is written, "Seek ye tho Lord while lie may be found," and all who truly seek surely find (Isa. lv, 6 Jer. xxix, 13 MatiJi. vii, 8), but if the sinner will not yield to the seeking Saviour—for Ho is always seeking ever sinco Ho sought Adam hiding froai Him in Eden—then there is a possibility of t.ho experience of Prov. i, 2s: "Then shall they call upon Mo, but I will notanswer. They shall seek Me early, but they shall not find Me." 35. "Then said the Jews among them selves, Whither will He go that we shall not find Him? Will Ho go unto the dispersed among the gentiles and teach the gentiles?" If they believed Him to bo possessed of a devil, as they said, they could not think of His going to heaven to leavo them, but even if He should possibly be a good wy.n and go to heavon surely they would liml I-lim, for weie they not all going that way, at least in their own opinion? Anything more than a mere man they could not see Him to be and so they understood Him, not because they would not receive Him. 30. "What manner of saying is this that IIo said, Ye shall soek Mo and shall not find Me, and whero I am thither ye cannot onie?' It is not strange that theso unbelievers could not understand His word, for even the disciples are heard saying on tho night, before His crucifixion: "What is this that Ho saith? A little while. Wo cannot tell what He saith'' (John xvi, 18). 37. "In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let himcomo unto Mo and drink." Had they considered their own Scriptures they might havo thought of Isa. lv, J, or Jer. ii, 13, or tho rock that Moses smote, but they were blinded. Their hearts wero hardened, their ears heavy (Isa. vi, 10) because they would not see nor hear nor belicvo (Acts xxviii, 24-27). Tho fountain of living water was now in their midst, and yet they would not drink, for they preferred their own cisterns. In chapter I? wo learn how to be born of water and the Spirit, in chapter 4 wo learn that wo may be wells of water, bi\t here wo learn that wo may bo rivers of water, bringing health and life wherever we go (Ezek. xlvii, 9). Most saved people are content just to bo born again, a fow arc willing to bo well, but fewer still care to be rivers. It is for us to say how much of the Word wo are to have in us (Eph. v, ltij Col. iii, 16).

What War Costs.

In the great struggle between France and Prussia, the former lost as many as 136,000 men, of whom some 80,000 died of wounds received in battle, 36,000 by sickness, accident, spicide, etc., and 20,000 in German prisons.

A French statistician estimates that his countrymen who were wounded but •who survived numbered 138,000, those injured on the march or by accident, 11,421, those who recovered from illness 328,000, making a total of 477,421 direct sufferers. The German killed numbered 40,877 17,255 died on the field, and 21.023 in tbe anjbulances, making 79,155 in all. The wounded who survived numbered 18,543 men.

From first to last the German field artillery fired 340,000 shots, and the infantry 20,000,000. The booty of war consisted of 5,526 fortress guns, 1,915 field guns and rapid firing cannon, 107 eagles and flags, and 855,000 rifles, exclusive of what was captured at leisure on abandoned fields. The monetary loss to FraD^e was 12,656,487,522 franca Including the war indemnity paid to Germany of 5,742.938,S14 francs.

A survey of the powers of Europe shows that from the beginning of the century to the end of 1896 Turkey had experienced 37 years of war and 59 of peace Spain comes next with 31 years of war and 65 of peace France, with 27 years of war and 69 of peace Russia, 24 years of war and 72 of peace Italy, 23 years of war and 73 of peace Great Britain, 21 years of war and 76 of peacp Austria-Hungary, 17 and 79 Germany (exclusive of Prussia), 13 and 83 Sweden, 10 and 86 Portugal, 12 and 84 and Denmark, 9 and 87.

How Toasting Originated.

The word "toast," used for describing the proposal of a health in an afterdinner speech, dates back to medieval times, when the loving cup was still regarded as an indispensable feature of every banquet. The cup would be filled to the brim with wine or mead, in the center of which would be floating a piece of toasted bread. After putting his lips to it the host passed the cup to the guest of honor on the right hand, and after it had circulated around the table it came back to the host, who drained what remained and swallowed the piece of toast ir hopor of hi= friends at the ta-ble.
