The Sunday School Commentary SERMON, JAN. 16, BY REV. D. At. STEARNS.

Luke tells us that Jesus, being full of the Holy Ghost, was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, being forty days tempted of the devil, and that after the temptation Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee (Luke iv, 1, 2. 14). If we desire a sequence of the events In His life we may have to consider before His return to Galilee the whole of John i. 19. to iv, 54. But. confining ourselves as far as possible to our lesson portion, we should consider John's brief ministry and the reason of his imprisonment. He was filled with the Holy Spirit from bis birth, and Jesus said of him, "Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist" (Luke i, 15; vli, 28). He was a Spirit filled. God sent man. in very truth the Lord's messenger. Yet his ministry was not what men count a success. Just a few months' public ministry, then imprisonment because he dared to rebuke sin in high places (Mark vi. 17-10). and then his martyrdom to please a wicked woman. But he was approved of God from first to last, and some time we'll understand. The devil could not conquer Jesus Christ, but he was permitted to torment and to kill His faithful messenger. , In connection with Jesus leaving Nazareth to make His home in Capernaum we must read Luke iv. 1C-31. and note how, after He hod In the power of the Spirit read the Scriptures and spoken in the synagogue at Nazareth, His own townsmen thrust Him out of the city and attempted to kill Him. Then He came and dwelt in Capernaum, and great was the privilege of that city; yet see His words concerning it in Matt. xi. 23. 24. Notice the oft repeated phrase "that it might be fulfilled" (chapters i, 22: ii. 15. 23: iv. 14; viii. 17; rxi. 4: xxvi, 56: xxvii, 35, etc.) and remember His resurrection words in Luke xxlv. 44. "All things must be fulfilled which were written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the Psalms concerning Me." The quotation in our lesson from Isa. lx. 1, 2. leads on to verses 6. 7, and the King and the kingdom. So also in Isa. xlii. 6. 7. where He is spoken of as a light of the gentiles, the context says that He shall not fail nor be discouraged till He have set judgment in the earth (verse 4), or. in other words, till His kingdom comes. The darkness is everywhere, and Is increasing, and we are right into the apostasy of unbelief and the setting aside of the written word and the living word of which we have in the word been forewarned. "For, behold,, the darkness shall coyer the

earth aiAT gross darkness fne people, j but the Lord shall arise upon thee j (Israel), and His glory shall be seen ! upon thee, and the nations shall come j to thy light and kings to the bright-: ness of thy rising" (Isa. Is. 1-3). Jesus ' preached, as John had done. "Repent. ' for the kingdom of heaven is at hand" j (ill. 2: Iv. 17), but both John and Jesus ( were slain and the kingdom was post-' poned till the risen and aseeudt-tl Christ shall come again in power and glory preceded by the real Elijah, as, foretold by Malachi and confirmed by ; Jesus (Mai. iv. 5. C: Matt. xvii. 10-13). j Read the last passage most carefully ! and see how the real Elijah shall be to j

Christ's second coming what John was to his first coming. Acknowledging that John bad come in the spirit and power of Elijah and had been rejected. He says in unmistakable words, "Elijah truly shall first come." Meanwhile He is calling unto HimBelf out of the world those who are willing to remain in the world as His witnesses, counting all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Himself and the glory of His kingdom. If we will follow Him it must be by denial or renunciation of self and a willingness to die daily that His life may be seen in us (Matt. xvl. 24. 25; II Cor. iv. 11). But He does not call us to thi3 unworldly life without setting before us the kingdom, the glory and the rewards (Matt. xvl. 27, to xvii. 9). When Peter on one occasion said, "Behold, we have forsaken all and followed Thee what shall we have, therefore?" Jesus told him of a new earth with the Son of Man in the throne of His glory and the twelve apostles on twelve thrones ruling the twelve tribes o Israel (Matt. xix. 27. 2S). But listen to the last of the seven promises to the overcomers In Rev. lil. 21. and think of being with Him on His throne. He told Abram of the city which hath foundations; Moses had respect unto the recompense of the reward: Paul said that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory' that shall be revealed in us. but to the majority of believers today there seems to be no future glory worth mentioning, nothing and no one for which or for whom It is worth while to renounce the follies of this ungodly age and the pleasures of sin for a season. As Jesus went about all Galilee accompanied by His few faithful followers He preached the gospel of the kingdom and healed all manner of sickness and disease. He did not tell them to prepare to die. but told them of life eternal which He would freely give them, including the forgiveness of all their sins. pastor.

MARRYING

FRANCE

Official Obstacles That Bar the Way to the Ceremony. THE WORRIES OF A FIANCE. H Ha to Brave the Insolence and the Indifference of the Civil Officer In His Efforts to Accomplish the Neces sary Preliminary Formalities. Marrying in France is not an easy matter. On the contrary, the civil officers seem to employ ingenuity in putting as many obstacles as possible in the way of those who contemplate matrimony. Take the case of a French citizen who until recently resided In the Eighth arrondissement of Paris, but who removed to the Ninth and then began to accomplish the formalities necessary for his marriage. Smiling and happy, as a man about to wed should be. he presented himself at the mairie of the Ninth ward with the following documents, which he had previously obtained at the mairie of the Eighth arrondissement: His birth certificate, his discbarge from the army, the death certificate of his parents and the certificate of bis tirst marriage, for he had been married once already. ' ! On a Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock be called upon the functionary whose business it is to attend to matters affecting the "etat civil." Eying the visitor coldly, the functionary asked; "What do you want?" "To get married." replied the other, smiling. "It's closed." "Beg pardon?" "1 said it was closed for marriages. Come back on Monday or Thursday." "Why Monday or Thursday instead of Tuesday or Friday? What reason?" "How should I know? And do you think I care? It's like that that's all I know." On the Monday the fiance returned. He bad recovered bis good humor and bis smile, and the first document he banded to the employee at the mairie was his birth certificate, which bad cost him originally ,2 francs. "Wbat's that?" exclaimed the functionary, with an air of surprise. "It's too old." "What do you mean too old?" "I mean what I say. Your certificate was made out eight years ago. and it has been used already. 1 don't want that. I must have one that is not older than three months." "But my birthday does not change, and it is clearly indicated on this document, which Is official. Why do you want one that is not more than three months old?" "Why? You are too Inquisitive." The fiance was still smiling, but in a rather faint hearted fashion. "Where is your military memorandum book?" asked the employee. "I haven't got one." "What: You haven't got one? And you come here and expect to get married without a 'llvret militalrer No; you're joking. Y'ou can't be serious." "Yes. I am. I'm an officer on the reserve list" "Show me your mobilization order." "That's a secret order which I have not the right to show you. The army regulations are opposed to it. Here is my discbarge. That Is all I can show you." "All right: we'll see." Then the fiance Interpolated: "Why must you have a military docnment?" "To show that you are really a Frenchman." "Isn't my birth certificate sufficient?" "1 have no time for discussion. Where Is the document showing that your first union was dissolved?" "Voicil" That's not what I want. I must have a copy of the act of transcription." "The document I've just given yon cost me 2 francs at the mairie at Neullly. Where must 1 apply for the other? At Neuiilyr "No. Go to the registrar of the tribunal of the Seine." The fiance made for the door, ran downstairs and jumped into a taximotor. In a few minutes he was at the registrar's office. "Monsieur." replied the assistant registrar, "the registers from Neuilly have net come back yet. But you'll be sure to find them there, and they'll be able to give you all the information you want." Another.taxlmotor cab. and ten minutes later the distracted fiance was at the mairie of Neuilly. "Yes; I understand." replied the official after the visitor had explained the object of his call. "But we can't give you wbat you want under fortyeight hours." "I suppose 1 must wait." said the fiance.

Christian Endeavor-Home Missions

BY REV. S. Topic. CaaEs under bushels. Matt. v. ! 13-16. Com.nr.t by Rev. Sherman H- I Doyle. D. D. j The topical Inference is a paragraph from the Sermou on the Mount. In the i preceding part of this sermon Christ has in what are commonly called "the leatituies" described the characteristics of those who are members of the kiugdom of heaven, here meaning Ills spiritual klndoui upou earth. In the paragraph before us lie briefly, but i most comprehensively, describes the 4 relation of the members of His kingdom to the outside world under tbe two figures of salt aud light. The figure of salt illustrates that His kingdom Is to purify and preserve the world. But If the salt loses its savor it is good for nothing and is cast out aud trodden under foot of men. In tbe east salt does lose its saltiness by exposure and by adulteratiou by mixing with other foreign substances and is then worse than worthless. So tbe church without the qualification described in the beatitudes can iiccompUsh nothing so far as purifying and preserving the world are concerned. If it be Christless it will drire tbe world from Christ rather than to Him. Tbe second figure, that of light, is more pertinent to the subject suggested. The spiritual kingdom, or, rather its members, are "the light of the world. Men do not light a candle lamp and put It under a bushel (an eastern measure holding about a peck, but on the staud lamp stand, and it givetb light to all that are In the house. Therefore let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Fa- i ther, which Is In heaveu." j Candles or lamps under bushels! What supreme folly! Why light a lamp to put it under a bushel? The bushel would but bide its light and therefore waste the oil that was be ing burned. Why should the disciples of Christ, therefore, try to hide the light of their godly lives and good works? Who thus would be led to God? No oue. for light, to lead, must be seen. A covered lighthouse in time of storm would save no shipwrecked j vessel. Nor do men act so foolishly In earthly matters. Lighthouse keepers j see that their lights are shining tneir best In tbe midst of a storm. They desire above all things to turn approaching vessels from tbe rocks and shoals and direct them to a safe harbor. Yet many Christians put their candles under bushels. Some do so because of a false modesty. They may well keep the light from shining upon them, but never fear to let It shine to the glory of God. Others may have some doubts and are afraid to speak out and act out for God. Others still have a misunderstanding of Christ's words. "Let not thy right band know wbat thy left hand doeth." In this instance Christ was warning them against tbe selfish djsr ".-; of thvPharisee. but to ascribe Two days later, armed with a complete dossier, be returned to tbe mairie of tbe Eighth arroudlssement. Ills smile bad come back; be felt that victory was nJUb. "At last!" be exclaimed triumphantly as the functionary came forward. Tve got them all now." "Quite right" replied the other after a glance at tbe various documents. "But did I understand you to say you wanted to be married on the 13th?" "Yes. that's the date." "In that case I'm very sorry, monsieur, but that does not leave us tbe legal time In which to publish the banns. You will have to postpone the date of tbe ceremony." Then tbe fiance's smile "came off" for good, and I doubt whether bo will recover It before tbe wedding day. Paris Letter In London Post DECLINES TO TALK Yarns About Roosevelt Are Withheld by McMillan, His Host. MIGHT INJURE HIS BOOK Detroit. Mich.. Jan. 13. William Northrup McMillan, who entertained Theodore Roosevelt in his country mansion near Nairobi, Africa, several times last year, is in Detroit visiting relatives. He declined to be interviewed on the ground that what he said regarding Roosevelt in the Dark Continent might spoil some of the Colonel's dol-!ar-a-word tales. "I would like to give you a yarn," he said, "but Roosevelt is writing of his experiences over there and doen--nt want anybody to tell his story for him. I did not exactly make an oath or give any interviews, but it amounts to the same thing." WHITE RHINO COW. Butiara (On the Eastern Shore of Lake Albert). Uganda.

One good way to get out of ruts la Christian Endeavor meetings is to break away from tbe regular topic once in awhile and introduce some other subject which may le treated by one or by several Kndeavorers, by tho pastor or by a stranger, according to circumstances. There are interesting themes by the score. Try discussion or even a description ct the institutional church and its work. Get some one from the Y. M.
