a study of the accounts in the first
'three Gospels it is impossible to

—whether Jesus was in the syna-
gogge (David Smith), or in the
house of Peter, or on the covered
veranda of the house (Edersheim).

Lying on a bed—Anything like a'
modern bedstead was rare among
the ancients: Uaually a thin prat-,

light wooden portable frame, sof=

Seeing their faith—An example
of prevailing intercessory faith, The
man,• being sick of the palsy, would
hardly have the mental alertness
requisite to an act of faith. Still,
it may have been at his own insti-

brought hien to Jesus.
Be of good cheer—On his face

and probably also the remorse, c
which was in his heart because of
the sires which perhaps were respon-

bodily weakness had driven home t
the sense of his guilt and. made him
aware that his first need was to be c
forgiven. Jesus saw this and went e
to the root.of the trouble at once.

G Son of man—A phrase occur

Lord himself, An Old Testamen
title, • which Jesus's hearers, to
gether with all Jews, would under
stand to refer to the Messiah. B
using it to designate himself Testi
proclaimed himself the Anointed o
Geo', Fulfilment of Jewish hope
while emphasizing the closeness o
his relation to the human race. I
included the deeps of humiliation
and the heights of kingship.
Hath authority on earth—As wcl
as in heaven. He had not lost his
right to forgive by condescending to
his lowly human estate.
Arise ---That alone might not have
been convincing. But that he was
able to bring into play his entire
body in the act of gathering up his
bed, and then to push through the
dense press of people in getting to
itis house, was a complete vindica-
tion of the claim of .Jesus. By this
miracle Jesus allows himself to go
oe record as declaring his equality
with God.
S. They glorified God who lad
given such authority unto men
They missed the significance of the
incarnation. This was not power
delegated to a mere man, but pow-
er inherent in Jesus as the Son of
God. God did commit to specially
ordained men the power of forgive-
ness, but a conditional, not an ab-
solute power (John 20. 23).

AN EARL AS A LANDLORD.
An Appalling Indictment Against
Owner of 39,000 Acres. ,
A grave indictment has been
brought against the Earl of Fever -
sham by Dr. W. S. Wheaton, one
of the Local Government Board In-
spectors of Grote Britain,
The Earl is the owner of 39.000
acres in Yorkshire, and the estate
eomprises the town of Helmsley
and a large number of villages. The
condition of many of the dwellings,
according to the of5cial report, is
of an appalling character. The
most serious part of the affair is
that at the time the indictment was
made the Earl of Feversham was
chairman of the rural district, coun-
cilwhich has jurisdiction over the
area canoe rned.
Dr. Wheaton's report states that
the worst dwellings were in three
tillages owned by the Earl of Fev-
eraham. Nearly all were dilapidet-
od, the walls damp, tee tools of do-
ease's.' thatch. 'Many houses were
without back doors or hack win-

LYRE BEET AS FOOD.
The beet beats all. It is one of
the most valuable of cultivated
plants. The sugar beet is a main
source of sugar and alcohol. The
large forage beets supply an excel-
lent food for cattle and the red gar-
den varieties provide savory table
vegetables. The usefulness of this
valuable food has now been increas-
ed by the production of an edible
?lour from sugar beets. The desic-
cation of sliced sugar blots is prac-
tised in Germany on an extensive
scale, but the product is employed
exclusively as fodder for settle.
In Belgium a meal is matte from
dried beets. Itis entirely free from
the distinctive flavor of• the beet
and is suitable for cakes, puddings
and pastry. As it contains about
65 per cent. of sugar it can often
be substituted with advantage for
sugar in somewhat larger quanti-
ties. The processes of desiccation
and grinding not only cost less than
the extraction of sugar, but pre-
serve all the sugar of the beet, part
of which is rejected in the form of
molasses in the process of sugar
making.

turalist, has had many adventures'
whilst taking living pictures of
wild animals. Onoo he had erected
his cinematograph apparatus in a
tiger's cage in Carl Hagenbeck's
great zoo at Hamburg when one
of the tigers lost its temper, gave
a furious growl'; and went slap at

nails, leaving enough•space between
spools for the broom to hang in.

cracked a 'good cement is made by
taking wood ashes and salt in equal
proportions, reduced to a paste
with cold water, and fill in cracks
when stove is cold. 1t will soon
