was endeavouring to put his yotmger
brother out of the room, The boy had
an open jack knife in his bond, and
in the scuffle the small blade entered
James' side just over the heart. Medi-
cal aid was summoned from Wood-
stock, and It is thought the young
min will recover. It is hardly likely
tint there will be any investigation

bed to death.

"('in't,l's Divine Autho'I$t," .lohn c,
11-17. 4nlden 'rest, John .L 49,
PR.AC'111OAL NOTES.
Verse 17. iffy Father w^orketh hither-
to, anti 1 work. The Jaws understood
him to refer to (,oil. God "rested on
the seventh day," and in remembrance
of than rest teeth Med the SabbttLII,
"but from that time he cootinucd, and
still continues, his works of preserva-
tion, providence, and mercy 1.0 the
creatures which be halls made, and
this on every day alike."—.Churton.
there is no warrant in any nation of
Jesus for secular work on the Sabbath
day. Our Lord's work, like the work
of his Father, was a work of love, and
"the exercise of love is cover a viola -
lion of the true Sabbath; "—Abbott.
111. Therefore the Jews sought the
more to kill him. See Murk 8. 11. Their
plans to put him away were steadily
perfected. Because he not only bail
hro:ren the Sabbath, "Was louslug
the Sabbath," Was Jesus really loot-
ing the Sabbath late 1 The Sabbath of
the Pharisees he certainly luosened,
but that was a perversion of the law.
The ideal Sabbath is not a state of In-
action. Said also that God was his
Lather. "itis own father." Some-
times, as may be seen from the Re-
vised Version, our Lord says "my
Father," sometimes "the father;" this
verse shows how his words were under-
stood. We have caught up so readily
from the lips oe the Saviour the
thought of the fatherhood of God that
WG are not not in remember that no
Jew bad ever thought of God as his
own Father. The phrase does not
occur in the Bible as an address of an
individual man to God except in Jer.
3. 4, where the speaker is the Jewish
people. Making himself equal with
God. It is difficult to understand our
Lord's words otherwise,
10. Verily, verily. A phrase of em-
phasis often used by our Lord. The Sun
can do nothing of himselt. Jesus does
not hint that the Jews misundersloud
him or that be was not the :ion of the
:Cather. His thought is rather that
there can be no variation of act or
will between the Father and the Son,
since the Son is of one substance with
the Father. What things soever he
doeth, these also doeth the Son like-
wise, "1t is the very nature of the
Son to do whatever the Father doeth,"
—Westcott,
21. As the Father raiseth up the
dead. Jesus had just healed the impot-
ent man. Stroh healing power without
medicinals aid was closely related to
the power of creation and resurrec-
tion, The devout Jew always believed
that God could raise the dead to life.
Quickeneth then% means "makelh
alive." The Son quickeneth whom he
will. The Older explanation of this
passage is that in the resurrection at
the last day it will be clearly proved
that Jesus is the Son of God, and
equal with the Father, by his power
of forming man again, as he was form-
ed at the beginning from the dust of
the ground: But a simpler meaning is
that our Lord's divine will is able to
give life to souls, as his Father's will
bad already given lite to bodies.
22. The Father judgeth no man, but
hath committed all judgment unto the
Son, Hitherto God the Father had de-
clared himself as the righteous Judge,
Psa. 7. 11. Under the Gospel he has
revealed to us that he will judge man-
kind by the Son of man, Acis 17. 31;
L Cor, 5. 10.
23. That all men should honor the
Son, even as they honor the Father,
Not only all believers, not only all
Jews, The "honor" here metros "rever-
ence," whether .given in trembling awe
or in delight. He that honoreth not
the Son bonoreth not the Father, Dr.
Abbott puts this very beaut{fully: "He
who does not recognize in Christ the
Son of the Father—the true image of
the divine glory—hits ea true concep-
tion of the Son, for the only way to
honor the Father is to honor the Son.'
24. He that heareth my word. With
heart as well us with ear. Believeth
on him that sent me. Depends on him
for salvation, not merely accepts his
being as an article of faith. Hath
everlasting life. As a present posses-
sion. The faithful Christian, hearing
and obeying the words of Christ, has
already within himself the .beginning
of eternal life—the promise and the
pledge of everlasting happiness. Shall
not come into condemnation. Into
judgment, as the Revised Version puts
it. Is passed from death unto life. fs
passed from a world of death into a
world of life, "As in Adam all die,
even so in Christ shall all be made
olive." By bumming members of
Christ we are saved from, the state of
condemnation, the due reward of our
sins, and partake of the promise of
Christ, "Because 1 live ye shall live
also."

James A, Bell, of Eoaverton, Ont.,
brotherara. of the Rev. John Wesley rill,
73.D., prostrated by nervous headaches
A v{etim of the trouble for several
yo
South American Nervine effected at
complete .cure.
In their own particular fiehl few men
are beter knows than the Rev. John
Wesley Bell, B.D., and his brother ids.
James A. Bell, The former wilt oe re-
cogulzed by his thousands of lrieuda all
over the country as the popular and able
missionary superintendout of the Royal
TemItlart of Temperance. Among the
20,000 members of this order in Ontario
his counsel is sought on all sorts of oc-
casions, On the public platform he is one
of the strong men of the clay, matting
against the evils of intemperance.
Equally well )mown Is Mr. Bell in other
provinces of the Domiuioa, having been
for years a member of the Manitoba
efethodist Conference and part of this
lime was stationed in Winnipeg. His
brother, Mr. James A. Bell, is a nighty
respected resident of Beaverton, wnrre
his influence, though perhaps more cir-
cumscribed than that of his eminent
brother, is none the less effective and
produetive of good. Of recent years lyew-
ever the working ability of Mr. James
A. Bell has been sadly marred by severe
attacks of nervous headache, accent -
puled be indigestion. Who can do fit
work when this trouble takes hold of
them and especially when it becomes
chronic, as was, seemingly, the case w+tbi
Mr, Bell? The trouble reached suet in-
tensity that last June he was complete-
ly prostrated. In this ceoeditlon a friend
recommended South American Nervine.
Ready to try anything and everytning,
though he thought he bad covered the
list of proprietary tpedieites, he securtd
a bottle Of this great discovery. A
second bottle of the medicine was taken
and the work was done, Employing hitt
own language: "Two bottles of. South
American Nervine immediately relieved
my headaches and have bunt up my
system in a wonderful manner." bet us
not deprecate the good our cIergymoe
and soelal reformers are doing In the
world, but how ilbfitted they would be
for their work were It not therelief
that Soutar American Noreen bridge to
them when physical ills overtake
them, and when the system, ass ree
cult of hard, earnest and continuous
work, breaks down. Nervino treats the
system as the wise reformer treats the
erns he is battling against. It strikes at
the root of the trouble. A11 dist
ease comes from disorganization of the
nerve centers. This is a soleuttfic fact.
Nervine at once works on those nerve
eentere; gives to them health and vig-
or; and then there course° throeqgh the
system strong, healthy, life -maintaining
blood, and nervoua.travities of every
variety are things of the past.
