Ah, mel It is high time that you left

After the sharpest winter the spring
dismounts from the !boulder of a

If every winter had not its spring, and
every night its day, and every gloom its

There was a gentleman in a rail car
who saw in that same oar three passen-
gers of very different circumstances. The
first was a .maniac. He was carefully
guarded by bis attendants. Hie mind,
like a ship dismasted, was beating
against a dark, desolate coast, from
which no help could moue. The train
stopped and the man was taken tint into
the asylum to waste away perhaps
through years of gloom. The second
passenger was a culprit. The outraged
law had seized on him. As the cars jolted
the chains rattled. On his face were
crime, depravity and despair. The train
halted, and he was taken out to the peni-
tentiary, to which he had been condemn-
ed. Tore was the third passenger, under
far different circumstances, She was a
bride. Every hour was gay as a marriage
bell. Life glittered and beckoned, Her
companion was taking her to his father's

If thou knewest the gift of God and wire

thou wouldst have asked of 1-lim, and He

The gift of God is the Sou of Clad, as we
Paw in last lesson (3.10). If the woman
had ever learned what re call Isa. lv, she
Haight now have thought of rho words,
""Ho, every one that thirstoth, come yo to
the waters!" and have said, Art thou Ho
of whom Isaiah wrote? If she] had known ,
Jer. 11, 13, she might have asked, Art thou
a fountain of living water? But she
knew not these things; she was not living
unto God, yet her soul was precious in
God's sight.
11. "The woman saith unto flim, Sir,
thou hast nothing to draw with, and the
well is deep. From whence, then, bast
thou that living water?" Whether it be
rich, religious flesh, as in Nicodemus, or
poor, sinful flesh, as in this woman, it is
in either case ignorant of spiritual things.
The well is too deep, and the natural man
has nothing to draw with. The woman
unwittingly described her own condition
in her words to our Lord. She thought only
of natural water, a rope and a bucket.
She did not know the words of Isa. ail, 3,
'"S,\'ith jay shall ye draw water out of the
wails of salvation." -He testified what
He knew and had seen. Those who be-
lieve His testimony proclaim Him as the
Truth, but those who receive not His tes-
timony make Him a liar. Let us as faith-
ful witnesses proclaim what we have heard
and seen (I John i, 11).
12. "Art thou greater than our father
Jacob, who gave us the well and drank
thereof himself and his children and his
cattle?" In chapter viii, 58, the rulers
ask Him, "Art thou greater than our
fathers A.brabaml Greater than Solomon
or Jonah (Math. sii, 41, 42), greater than
prophets or patriarchs, greater than angels
or archangel, one with God the Father,

to have souse one fax beneath you socially
or intellectually spoken of as better than
you, and can you keep still? Can you
bear to hear some other land or city hon-
ored above yours and be meekly quiet be-
cause your city is New Jerusalem?
13. "Jesus answered and said unto her,
Whosoever drinketh of this water shall
thirst again.", Both literally and figura-
tively true. The first the woman could
grasp, for she came often to draw.water,
but the second she understood not. But
few have • yet learned that the waters of
this world cannot satisfy, and the multi-
tudes seek the pleasures of sin, which sat•
isfy but for a season. They hew them-
selves out cisterns that can hold no water
(Heb. xi, 25; Jer. ii, 13).
14. "But whosoever drinkoth of the
water that I shall give him shall neve_
thirst, but the water that I shall give hire
shall be in him a well of water, springing
up into everlasting life." Christ in us,
the hope of glory is a well that not only
abundantly satisfies, but is ever spring-
