Time: Same as last lesson.
PI/tees: Jerusalem, .lntipatris, Cm-
sarea. Persons:Teed, the Sanhe-
drin, chief priests, Claudius Lysi-

centurions, soldiers; Felix, the
governor. Links: The chief cap-
tain, fearing to do an inustiee to
Paul, a human, arranged a iear-
rg for hint before the principal re-
ligious authorities of Jerusalem.
Point of the Narrative: Taking ad-
vantage of a division among the re-
ligious rulers, between Sadducees
and Pharisees, Paul succeeded in
winning some of the Jews to his
side, but the more bitter of his foes
plotted to take his life. News of
this being carried to the chief cap-
tain by Paul's nephew, arrange-
sucnts were made for Paul's secret
transference, by night, to d hea.y
guard, to Cte'sarea, the abode of the
Rumen governor.

cause, with one exception, all the
Eno comets heloeg to the unexpect-
ed class./ibis one exception is
Halley's comet. Its period is 76
years and it is due in 1910. Its first
recorded appearance was in 11 R.
('., when it was said to have been
cespended over Rome like a fiery
sword for several weeks prior to
the death of Agrippa. It has since
returned 2.1 times.
We have a drawing as it appear-
ed in 689 in the \uremburg Chron-
icle, and another representation of
its appearance in 10t:6. The latter

Tapestry. At this latter appear-
ence it was a very splendid object

ways prefers to die in his own
country. But if this is impossible,
he must at. least be buried there.
So the bodies of Chinamen in all
harts ofi the world are finally laid
to rest in China.
During his lifetime, "John Chin-
aman" abroad pays a small sum
regularly to a society which guar-
antees hie burial at home. Then
he knows that, when the eiil comes
to him, although he may be tempor-
al ily laic1 in alien soil, his remains
will ultimately be disinterred and
borne back to his fatherland.
In fulfilment of another Chinese
belief, beside each body there re-
poses in the coffin a substantial
meal of roast poik, chicken, and
rico. This is so that John may not
set out on his last journey with-
out due provision.

ar. extraordinary suic'de. the victin
being a young man named Stephen
Toth, who had been drinking heav-
ily in the restaurant of an inn at
Hodmnzovatsarhely. The gy psr
Land was discoursing lively strains,
when Toth suddenly called the lead-
er to his table. "Enough of these
lively tunes," he said. "Let us
have a funeral march, such as you
play on the way to an interment."
The band thereupon struck up the
solemn "March Funehre" of Cher
pie. A moment later Toth shot
himself through tho heart.
