clared in the following clauses, wash-

1. A vision. Here in outline Is a
wonderful sketch of how elea reveals
his truth, This spewed book ie ealled
the Revelation to ex:prose its erigin, it
nature, its objeet, ite eubject and ite
(ledge. It is the word of the living
God given by divine Inspiration and
invested with eiyine authority. It is
net made up of conjecture, but of oar-
taluties. We are givee the manner
and purpose of this revelation. it con-
sume of Old Testament idea epirit-
uaily
eombiume with New Teetaanent
narratives. The reeurrectioa of Christ
Is a fundaraeutal eonception of the
Lola book. After a Sow years of
ptraonal abeeeee from moult, with un-
abated love for our fallen race, Christ
cenneunicated with the apostle John
for the good of all owning generation's,
The beloved apostle in his mature
life, while in exile because at the
scorm of perseoution against him for
the testimony of the truth, received
the revelation from Christ ommemene
himself and his oirarch upon earth.
ehut in as ho was from ale Ohristiart
couverse, John wtus better fitted for
meteors° with Christ, and to reneive
ieetruction from his divine Master,
eeforc the eyes of the soul the Lord
Jezus Christ was evidently set forth.
gimlet was as real to him as any of
lee fellow men. John saw him, not
as the despised and rejected oe men,
but in might and majesty. The vision
ebewed John that the ideas which he
aed others had cherished enncerning
Christ were imperfect. lc was when
hie heart was uplifted to Goa in re-
ligious rapture and eeetacy that the
Melon burst upon him The voice
he heard was admonitory of the
secrednees and importance of what he
was about to hear and see. In the
trying time then before his people it
was more than over needful that they
eleged rightly regard him. John need, -
ed Mesh knowledge or old truths
brought home with renewed power.
The churches were highly honored of
t;od as objects of hie redemptive pur-
mem. John ryas premed to give ex-
pmeelon to the love for his Lord with
eich his soul was filled to everflaw-
Mg. Before his mini there arose a
vh.ion of what he and his fellow be-
lie\ ers had been, and what the grand
miesion of Christ had accomplished in
the way of putting away of Ma from
eiMir souls. The thought of the sov-
ereignty of Christ and his love so
immeasurably great and unchangeably
content made his heart glow with
noblest joy. Looking beneath the
symbols of the vislen we learn their
meaning. The golden-teirdled garment
told of royal majesty and authority;
thehoaxer hair, of profound wisdom;
the eyes, or searching batelligence; the
feet, of reeistiess ;strength; the voice,
o: alimommanding might. The seven
htars, grasped in his right hand, told
dr power and purpose. The two-edged
meont signified that soulmenetrating
eard by which the secrets of all hearts
mmuld be made icnowu and by which
ail adversaries should be slain. The
sountenance told of divine majesty.
IL A touch. Chrtat's ministry on
eertit was to remove fear, a lack of
teust in the personal caro of the great
Father. .The fact of John's being
overcome by the vision was the occa-
sion for a fresh display of divine ten-
derness lu a touch of love. With the
right hand of the Lord he was
strengthened and revived. There was
in that touch au assurance of divine
regard, notwithstanding the apostle's
eense of his own unworthiness.
A word. The whole strength of
the comforting assurance which was
epcken to John, lay in the identity
between Jesus whom he had known
end the Christ whom he beheld. It
was a marvellously comprehensive
me elation of the glory ef the Lord.
The glorified* Christ, the eoltexistent
end independent Ong, must noceasarily
be the .author and upholder of al)
created existence. The great Re
deemer's sway Is over the whole race
He he to be worshipped as Lord. The
eleion of Christ in his glory' oompletes
,and justifies the history of Christ in
elimination. It required an epees's.
'Yew,: to reveal tho vast empire and
mazterhood of Christ. Centuries cane
not &eve antiquity to his atonement.
Time cannot wear out its virtues. At
the Lord's coming the one thought ot
all will be concerning their relation
to bit. Hie eotnIng alil be the great
erisis of the world.

it submarine was not responsible for
the tiuking of the britaintite.

The eight of Nov, 20-21 was rela-

Somme-Ancre front which in held by
our Canadian troopes. The new line

was moving up one of these new
trenches, when he was eurprised to
meet g party of six Germane, one of
them an officer, who had apparently

surrender. They pronmtly obeyed, and
he led them ell back.

Serbs Continue to Win Over
German-Bulgars.
London Cable.--Purther inroads

announced by tne Serbian Wax Office

The Italians on the left wing of the
Western Macedonia line are bringiug
their line: up even with the French
and Serbs, fighting in the difficult
country between Lake Ochteda and
Lake Presba. The Italians are strik-
ing at Ochrida, twenty-five miles
northweat of Monastir, and the capital
of the ancient Bulgarian empire.
The Serbian official report says:
"Yesterday we continued our advance
northward despite the violent resist-
ance of the enemy. We captured the
village of Rapesh (near the Eastern
Cerna, 16 miles northeast of Moues -
ti r) .
"North of Suhodol we have beaten
the Germans and forced them to flee.
A number of German and Bulgarien
prisoners and important booty have
fallezi into our hands. In the retreat
the enemy abandoned food depots, en-
gineering implements' and other ma-
terial."
"On the Struma Mont we drove
back enemy patrols," says a British
official report. "On the Dairen front
British aeroplanes succesfully bomb-
ed and damaged the enemy lines."
