TEXT Who his own self bare our sins in his town body on th tree, that we being 'dead to nlua, should live unto righteousness; by whose stripes ye wer healed: For ye were as sheep going asfray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls. I Peter 2:24-25.

Peter In this chapter is speaking to Christians who are undergoing p e r s e c ution and suffering because of their faith at the hands of the pagans, and he is urging them to have their manner of living 'honest,' open and above board In the presence of their c a 1 u mnlators, whose own co n v e rsion may

be brought about it. He teaches that Christians

should submit themselves to those in authority over them, whether governmental or industrial, for the Lord's sake, and thye should do it even in

the case of those masters that are not good and gentle, but "forward." In the course of the argument he adduces the example of Christ, who, although without sin, was reviled, but did not revile again, and whose sufferings were carried to the extent of the cross. The description of these sufferings la fourfold, each one of the four particulars Illustrating a different aspect of the salvation men may receive through him. The Strange Law of Tokyo. First, he tells us his sufferings were substitutionary ,"Who his own self bare our sins in his own body in the tree." It is not long ago since there was an ordinance in Tokyo, Japan, to the effect that no foreigner could take up his residence there without providing for himself a native substitute, who, in the event of his violating any law, would suffer the penalty in his stead. As soon as he arrived the question wosld be put to him, "Who stands for you?" Jesus Christ stands for all who put their trust in him. In the second place, he tells us that the design of Christ's sufferings was that men "might live unto righteousness," that is that they, might become enabled to live that kind of life set before them in the preceding verses. I know a lad who, when he does anything very questionable and his conscience begins to trouble him, always asks his mother, "Will that keep me out of heaven?" If the answer is in the negative 'he Is satisfied. But the salvation of Jesus Christ is not for the purpose merely of getting into heaven, but of living right at the present time. The Croquet Ball. There used to be a rule in croquet that when you struck your opponent's ball you were "dead" upon it so far as

that play was concerned. The Christian believer may be said to be represented by the ball, while sin Is the mallet in Satan's hand. Sin has struck the believer once in the person of his substitute, Jesus Christ, and can not strike him again. When Christ died, be died to sin in the sense that it could never again bring him to the place of judgment, and it is the teaching of the New Testament that the believer died In him In the same senae. It is this fact which, sets the believer free to live a life of righteousness, and it is the apprehension of It as a fact through the Holy Spirit, that communicates the power and inspiration to him so to live. The third thing Peter tells us about the sufferings of Christ is their necessity. "Ye were as sheep going as- . tray." Travelers in the Orient tell us that the tendency of a sheep is always to go farther and farther astray; and so man, if left to himself, never will return to God of his own accord. No process of. education or evolution will ever bring him there. Man is not a member of a rising but a fallen and a falling race, and he who delays to receive the Bm of God now will be farther awjiy from him tomorrow than he Is today. Hence the urgency of the gospel Invitation that "now is the accepted time, today the day of salvation." Finally, he teaches us the result of Christ's sufferings. "Ye are now returned to the Shepherd and Bishop of yortr Souls." "Returned" signifies that man in Christ Is brought back to that place of fellowship with God he enjoyed before the fall. Indeed, his fellowship now is on a surer foundation. There was a contingency in the case of the Srst Adam, bat there is none In that of the second. The latter has kept the law as w ell as paid the penalty for those who receive him, and their restored condition Is thus eter nally secure. Let me exhort you therefore to receive the Saviour by a definite act of faith today, that the peace of God may become yours the peace that springs from the knowledge that your sins are forever put away. And thus receiving the Holy Spirit as the further gift of God, you will have power to live a life of righteousness unto him.

THE STRAPONTIN.

Found In Parisian Theaters, It

Delusion and a Snare. In every Paris theater there are two or three score "strapontins."' You wonder what a strapontin is? Well, it is a folding or strap seat on the aisle attached to the side of the aisle chair of the orchestra or balcony rows. It has

neither sides nor back and is without visible means of support except through affiliation and, attachment. The unsuspecting American tourist whose stay in Paris is but a matter of days approaches the Parisian box office and is shown the diagram by the middle aged lady with the blond curls. Guilelessly the visitor indicates what he believes to be an aisle seat and congratulates himself on his luck at so late an hour in capturing it A few minutes later he has paid his 10 cents for a program and tipped the woman attendant who shows him to his strapontin. It is as devoid of legs or feet, this strapSntin, as of arms and vertebrae, a device to be shunned and tabooed. You squirm to make yourself comfortable, to secure some attitude whereby the hardships of the strapontin may be annihilated, but in vain. It drives from your miDd the most seductive music, the most dramatic episode fails to affect you. and your thoughts are forced back on the instrument of torture which has cost you the full 10 francs, the price of an orchestra chair.

KANAA BURIAL GROUNDS. Bolivia's Fearsome Valley of the Shadow of Death. There Is a valley in Bolivia. South America, which might well be called the Valley of the Shadow of Death. It has been inhabited for an indefinite period of years by the Kanaa Indians, who are kindred to the various South American tribes and number now only a few hundred souls. That they were once a very powerful tribe is indicated by the condition of the land which they a a tribe still inhabit One cannot travel any distance through their land without coming upon the old and forsaken burial grounds of the Kanaa dead. These places cannot be called graveyards, for the bodies are not buried, but rather placed upon elevated platforms, wrapped in the garments of death and bound to the crossbeams that they may not be displaced. In one of these burial grounds there will be Drobably fifty high skeleton

platforms, and on each will lie from three to five of the Kanaa dead. The air in that part of Bolivia is very pure and preservative, for it is one of the highest plateaus of the continent, although Kanaa valley is Just a little below the plateau's height A traveler passing through that land at night and by moonlight would be awe stricken at the gloomy vision those graveyards present.
