To most people a mummy Is a mum• my, worth whi:e for one visit W a muse- um. strictly out of curiosity, and there- t.fter the lease said the better. To the prvf.•ss:,rs mummies have endless varie- ties of interest of their own. Not until recently, However. has a through and comprehensive study been made of the leoceases by which mummies were nanutactured. For the last throe years Ur. G. Elliot Smith. a British member el 1'Instilut Egyption, has been investi- gating the methods in use u: the twenty- first dynasty and lrscidsntafly oceumu- luting information about later and ear - Ler methods. Ne has had forty-four mummies on the Jiseicling table, if such it may bo called, and the wonders be has reported are endless. In the earliest days the prehistoric Inhabitants of upper Egypt were ac- eusterned to preserve their dead by a suc'esfvl sun -drying process, but this was a primitive method, nob to bo theight of when the great Egyptian dynasties were in power. It was not, heiegvcr, tall the twenty-first dynasty that Pre embalmers began to try to make their output fork us natural as lite:. Previous le that the mummies were shrunken wrecks a bodies. The practice then introduced was a sort of combination of embalming and taxi- dermy. Tiro brain was removed and the cavity filled with linen and resin. The body was opened and Um viscera, excepting rho Load, removed; all purls were given a pme:ni of saline bath, and finally the viscera were returned and all parts of the hely, including the limbs, were stuffed with mud and lin- en. Finger and too nails were care- fully fastened light, artificial eyes were supplied as far es necessary, mens bodies were painted red and women's yell .w, and all was ready for that tong preeerv'ation in tho tomb which has ended witty showing so well to the world the vanity of life. in loner dynasties this process: was discarded es barbaric and uncouth, and la place of it a system of external bandages was doveopel to give the mummy the shape and plumpness 't had had 1a life. One can Imagine the mummy -making artists of those days dilating on the great industrial pro. grass of their times and Poking back with contempt on the foeb':e efforts of their ancc'skrrs. 1t was not till the sixth century of the present era that mummy - making cease] to be practised.

Samuel hi. 10. Tho inspired writer here to.b us that "the word of the Lord was precious in those days. There was no open vision." No more voice out of the burning bush, no more Shekinah In the temple, 110 more pillar of cloud and fire. But 1 there was no opon vision there was atilt a secret ono; if there was no more audible voice there was yet a "still, small voice." God had not for- go;ten or withdrawn from "His world.' Tho world is full of Gods voices, only they are not heard. God is always waiting to speak, but His voice is kept 1•ucic b.cause men's minds are not in a listening posture. How, then, &trail moa hear those stilt voice,; of God, whi :h are whispering through all the univer.'e at Hi' being, His presence and His pc,wer? First by turning our inward eye to- ward this invisible, by not forgetting that wo have a spiritual nature, by thirsting for the God of our being and life. No Iran conscious of his affinity with the Divine should allow himself never to rise above THE MATERIAL AND PERISHING. And, bursting the fetters of this absorp- tion in the Things of Urne and seer, he will hear the still, small voice et his Maker in his utniest soul. Wo are rational beings, and, above all. we should think of God and eternal themes. But how often Iht. average man thinks keenly of business, of sci- ence, of social od•ndilions, of everything but !eligem. There is altogether kis little real think ng given to spirituel matters. Ito, then, who would prize •lila eternal welfare should take limo for meditation. And retiring (rout the world to the silent chambers of his being God will draw near end utter a divine message.

Fuller Manifestation of Jesus as the Christ. -In this and the subsequent chapters of his gospel John records the fuller and continuous self -revelation of Jesus as the Christ. This revelation Wok the form of authoritative teaching en the ono hand, and the manifestation of divine. power in the working of miracles on Hui other. As wo have al- ready noted in the previous study, John confines himself almost entirely to a record of events which transpired at Jerusalem on the occasion of successive Jewish festivals. ilere the soli-revo!a- tion of Jesus was the moans of bring- ing out the unbelief of the Jewish au- thorities and people in spite of the so- licitous warnings and remonstrances of him agninst whom their bitter enmity was rapidly developing. At the same time this same self -revelation of Jesus developed in the minds and hearts of the disciples whom he had gathered about him a deeper and more abiding faith in his divine character and rnis- s!on. In the events and discourses re- corded in chapters five and six Jesus reveals himself as the source and sus- tenance of lite. At Jerusalem this re- velation is vouchsafed to a smeller company of Jews, including, doubtless, some of the disciples, in connection with She healing of the impotent man at tin Pool of Bethesda. In Galilee, a little iater, Jesus reveals himself In a similar way to a larger multitude of people in connection with and subse- quent to the feeding of the five thou- sand. The miracle at Bethesda was wrought on the Sabbath day, anal this fact exposed Jesus to a cluirge before the Jewish authorities of breaking the law of Moses, which in its essence was no ether Than the law of God; and this turn was the OCcrodon for a huller ex- position on the part of Jesus of Ills re- lation to the Father as the giver of life, together with an appeal to the testi. pony of the Father to the Son as tm• plied in the works which he wen per- forming.

It has leen suggested with much plausibility that this was the feast of the Purim which came in the early spring and commem- orated the deliverance of the Jews from Haman in the days of Esther (Kith. 3. 7 9. 21-28). 2. Slice!) gate --Tho noun fo!towing the adjective pertaining to sheep is In the original of this passage omitted. as the italics in the text indicate. The elder English version inserted the word "market' instead of "gate." Since. however, there Ls no reterense to any sheep market In the Old Testament. while the sheep gate Is several times re- ferred to (compare Neh. 1. 32; 12. 39), the wording of the ilevLsed er Stand- ard Version is probably tho oorr^.t one. A pool, which 1s called in Hebrew Bethesda -Since the city gate, known inn 0141 Testament Mmes es the sheep - gate, was north of the temple and is now generally identified with the, mod- ern Saint Stephen's gate. through whie•h flocks and herds are still brought into Jerusatem from the east and north- east, sumo commentators Identify the ancient pool, or tank, discovered in 1888, just northwest of the present Church of Saint Aruto, and not far dis- tant from Saint Stephen's gate, with the fool of Bethesda referred to in our lesson passage. This tank. or cietern, 1s cut in the rock to a depth of thirty feet, is fifty-five feet long and twelve and one-half feet wide. A flight of twenty-four steps leads down Into the pool from one side. The pool itself Is archei by flvo arches with five corre- sponding porches by its side. On the wall of the anc!ent crypt of a ruined crusader's church built over this rock - hewn cistern was found a fresco repre- senting Pte angel troubling the water of the pool, IndicaUng that at the time of the crusades this was considered to be the ancient Pool of Bethesda, That the evidence in favor of this site is not, however, Conclusive is clear from the feet that it has failed to convince men such as Sanday and Conder.

This reference to the miracle le omitted from the text of both the fine- lish and the American Devised Vors'i,ns on the ground of its omission by the beat and oldest of the ancient manu- scripts, and the further fact that those of the older manuscripts which do con- tain the passage differ greatly frann cave other in its exact wording. it seems that the people of ancient limos, not understanding the true cause of the perk,dic bubbling of the wales. ascribed this to the miction of nn invisible angel.
