TIE BEGINNING OF SIN.
Sunday, April 18,—Genesis 3
24.
Go/den Text:
Foe as in Adam, all die, even so in
Christ shall all be made alive (1 Cor.
15S22):
Man could never discover for him-
self how sin came into the human
race. Science has no explanation
for it; psychology cannot account for
it—although both try to do so. But
God has revealed it, early in His
Word, and then shows the•tragic and
unending- consequences of sin,
throughout the history and teaching
in the sixty-six books of the Bible,
God had provided everything that
Adam and Eve needed, and had plac-
ed them In a perfect environment,
including His own presence. He set
up just one simple test of their loy-
alty to Him: abstinence from partak-
ing of "the tree of the knowledge of
good and evil," telling them plain)
that to eat of it would mean deatl
Then Satan was permitted to tis
them. Why, we do not know; w
may trust God in that as in all else
We may not comprehend the mys
tery of Satan's use of the serpent t
tempt Eve, but the fact is to be ac
cepted. Remember that Satan i
always "a liar, and the father of it,
as the Lord Jesus said (John 8:44)
he begins his attack in the Garde
of Eden by casting doubt on God'
Word. "Yea, hath God said?" h
begins, and then at once he misrep
resents what God had said.
It was the seine method that he
followed, centuries later, when
tempting the Son of God in the Wit
derness. God liad just declared that
Jesus was Hie Son, and Satan ques-
tioned it (Matthew 3:17, 4 :3 )
When we find ourselves doubting in
tny way the words of God as given
to Its in Ills Book, let us recognize
he calling card of the Adversary.
Eve did not stick to the words of
God, but she added to them—which
s just as dangerous as to subtract,
God had told them not to eat of the
re; Eve said they had been forbid -
11 even to touch it, which was not
o.
Than Satan became bolder—he
lwaye does, when we follow along
sith him—and he gave God the lie!
Ye shall not surely die," said the
iar; and Eve actually believed him.
et us not be surprised at this, for
e have believed Satan's lies, utter -
d in direct rejection. of God's Word,
ountless thnes,
The Al:natio John tells us that "all
int is in the world, the lust of the
esh, and the lust ot the eyes, and
se pride of life, is not of the Fath-
-" (L John '2:16). Notice 'that Sa-
n made exactly that threefold ap-
eal of sin to Eve, for we read that,
when the woman saw that the Vee
as good for food (lust of the 'flesh)
ncl that it was pleasant to the eyes
ust of the eyes), and a tree to be
esired to make one wise (pride of
fe)," she took the fatal step of sni
id death. Those are the three great
pproaches to our life that Satan
I sin make to -day.
Did God keep His word, after
dam and Eve had both sinned, and
d they "in the day" that they ate
the tree "surely die"? God al -
ay s keeps His. word. There is no
ubt, in tbe least, that they

ead in trespasses and sins," as 011

They were overwhelmingly me-
lons of their own sin and sinfulness
en, 13y some mystery that is not
vealed they Were no* guiltily con -
toils of their nakedness, 'whereas
fore the, fall "they were both nak-
, the man and the Woman, and
are not ashamed." And they made
pathetic, futile attempt to Cover
eir hakednese with self-made gar -
mite of fig leaves. It is plainly a
no of sinful man's futile efforts to
itet, or atones for the coniequen-
s of his sin by his °Mtn activities
or good works, There is a better
Way, 04.1 the end of the chanter ehoWs
Clocl'e Way, not man's,
; Dr. E. J. Pace, a Christian car-
:1- toonlet has called attention in one of
his pictures to man's first -words to
God recoeded in the Bible, and man's
last words to God. The first was
Adam's shrinking reply to God's
call: "I heard Thy' voice in the gar-
den; and I was afraid. ani I hid
myself." The last words in the Bi-
ble addressed to God are those of
the Apostle John: "Even so, come,
Lord Jesus." Sinful man does not
want to see God. Cleansed and re-
stored man longs to see Him.
God's several judgments for the
first sin, pronounced on the serpent,
on the woman, on the man, and on
the face of the earth, should be stud-
ied carefully. But in the midst of
them there, shines out the first inspir-
ed mention of the Gospel—the Pro-
teonagelium, as it is called. God
says to the serpent concerning itself
and the woman's seed: "It shall
bruise thy head, and thou shalt
bruise his heel." We know that the
t great coming seed of the woman was
e Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who
condescended, when he became. man,
to be born of a virgin—born of a
o woman, but not of man. The head
is a mote vital part than the heel;
s Christ permitted Himself to be
wounded, temporarily, by Satan, who
, has the power of death (Hebrews 2:
n 14), but it was in order that He
s might overcome and destroy Satan
e and his power, bruising his head for
- time and eternity.
Another foregleam of the Gospel
is given in this chapter, when God
rejected the ineffective covering for
- sin provided by the man-made gar-
ments of righteouaness, and "unto
Adam also and his wife did the Lord
• God make coats of skins and clothe
them." This required the shedding
of the blood of the animals in anti-
cipation of the shedding•of the blood
of the Lamb of God, Christ Jesus,
for our sins, that we might be cloth-
ed by MS righteousness. •

SUCH IS FAME
Prernier King Was Just Customer to
This Clerk.
How Many Canadians would know
Premier Mackenzie King if they saw
him?
If you happened to have an hour's ,
conversation with him and he men-
tioned that his name was King,
would you know him to be the head
of the Liberal party and tha present
prime minister of Canada?
The following incident, which re-
cently happened in Toronto, may.
prove nothing except that every man
is not destined to be a detective.
A quietly dressed customer walked
into one of .the city's leading furni-
ture shops. He was alone. He
browsed through the corridors for
fully five minutes before he was
questioned by a salesman arid made
his wishes known. He woald like to
see some small wooden boxes, and an
oak table, he said.
With his customer following, the
salesman stalked to the mar of the
store where the tables were to be
-found. The two stood in conversation
about the merits of various pieces of
furniture for more than an hour, in
which time ten tables were inspected.
At last the customer was eatisfied
and he egreed to buy one table,
"I am c•ertain you will be satisfied,
. Of eesrse this will be polished

"-Knee"
"Ys, Mr. Xing; and what is tha
rivet !mine?"
um, 14, illinen laing Otto

While th, : clerk was jotting
,slown this informal -lea, the euotomer
Jooked about and, finding the sten
well filled, remarked, all ueinese
seems to be good,"
"Yes, Mr. King, business is good
at this season. Pic:king up remark-
ably well. And how do you find
buelness."
"Not so good as we should like,
Rather unsettled at present,"
"That is unfortunate. snit of
course the: election had an unsettling
effect on some businesses."
"Mine was one of those. The elec-
tion affected it."
"Oh, well, don't worry, sir. Soon
we'll have a good old Conservative
govermnent running things and then
things will improve,"
"No, I don't think we will have a
Conservative government. If we
did, I don't think that would improve
my business."
"And what is your business, may
I ask?"
"Everybody's."
"Oh, I see, sir. Magazines!"
It was two days later when the
customer returned to make further
inquiry about the table and to in-
spect some boxes. He mentioned
that the boxes must be of antique
effect suitable as containers of pri-
vate papers or jewelry. A different
salesman attended the wants of the
customer.
"A table is being prepared for me;
I should like to see it and also some
old boxes."
"Yes, sir, and what is the name?"
"King—W. L. King."
"Yes, Mr. King. Just this way,"
replied the clerk.
While making hie pilgrimage to the
rear of the shop for the second time
the proprietor saw his distinguished
customer, recognized him as the
prime minister and greeted him most
warmly.
Neither clerk had had any know-
ledge of his customer's identity, al-
though both had been Toronto resi-
dents for years and read the news-
papers regularly. — Toronto Star

New Zealand Paper Sings Praises of
Her Court at Exhibition
Two courts in the New Zealainl
an:1 South Seas eithibition stand out
from all others. They are those of
Canada and Great Britain.
:Inch is the tribute paid by • the
Otago Daily Times of Dunedin, N.Z.,
which notes thet itt making an at-
tractive display Canada had the
greater task. -
She sought, the wiper adds, to
make an industrial display, allowing
minerals, agriculture, all .kinas of im
;dements, hides and skins, .confec-
tionczy, and almost everything that
the aountry produced, and Yet ber
aim was to present it in a way that
would appeal more to the esthetic
senses. It WINS an ambitious project,
but the men who organized' the
court kneW what they wore aboet,
and the fruition of their ideas oe-
stilted in a triumphant success.
:The Canadian Court is one worthy
of the great dominion. 31 18 boilt in
a style that is known as roceoeo, but
that conveys' little to the visitor who
is not versed in the technicalitiee of
architecture. Entrance is gained
through the vont ..gates
just inside No. 4 pavilion, and the
view front here is grand and impos-
ing. A fortunate color scheme hes
been struck in the gold, black, •and
.grey facings, a combiaation Which
brings out every good quality of the
exhibits and which is pleasing to the
eye. If a color scheme had beet
ba,dly chosen the exhibits 'would have
looked dull and lifeless. Aa it ifia
they are shown under ideal condi-
tions.
It is the root ana the backgroued'
that first catch the attention, tor the
originality is very striking, The ceil-
ing is of white velltun, with wide
aweoping aeches that eross eaeh oth-
er at intervals, and give a dignSfied.

The .floor space covers five-eighths
of an acre, and in the whole court
there is not a single truss or piece
of. construction work to be seen, and
that in itself is a remarkable feat.
The floor is covered entirely with
grey linolitum,
One of the distinctive feeturea of
the Canadian court is the tramper-
ent pictures along the upper walls,
showing on the eastern side the lum-
ber industry and on the western side
agrieultural industry. Tiles
have just the appearance of sunlight
shining on a country scene, and the
effect is most realistic.
A great deal of intseest bas been
shown in the .pictures of the scen-
ery in the Canadian National Park,
and the officials have received a num-
ber of inquiries from visitors who

His Affinity

"Jim," said my friend Mrs. Mow

you down and you don't care to re-
attain single, deprived of wife, C1111-
dreu and the comforts of a aortae, it
seems to me that you had better bestir
yourself."
Belau was a matchmaker. I knew
else had some scheme on hand and
waited for her to declare it
"I can inake it easy for you," she
continued. "I know a girl who, like
you, has put oft' matrimony too long
and has begun to realize that she is
drifting toward a lonely old spinster-
hood, a bave offered to help her out.
/ have invited her to spend July and
August with me at Fernwood. I shall
have other guests during the summer.
both men and tiromen. I shall tell her
that I bave a man in vievr for her.
How would you like to be that man?"
"Helen," I exclaimed admiringly,
"you are the queen of matchmakers!
Had you told me you had a girl for
me and introduced me to her, she and
I, knowing of your plan, would doubt-
less have spurned each other. Your
proposal Is delightful. I enter into It
with all my heart But why do you
assume that there will be a natural se-
Iection between us?
"I don't. X simply assume tbat yon
are persons of oppoeite sex who seek
a mate. The mate being at hand, per-
haps you will recognize It if you are
left to yourselves to do so."
I spent a number of week ends at
Helen's country seat, besides two
weeks in August.
I fancied she had got up the scheme
to make a match between me and
sotne dear friend of hers, and I be-
lieved that I might find out the young
lady by the tact that she was some
one Helen adored. But I knew that
fEroemIenesew
. ould conceal this adoration
I settled upon a Bliss Jewett, one of
Inc guests during the summer whom
I had heard her speak of quite often
before as the lady between whom and
me there was to be a natural selec.
tion. Miss Jewett was evidently a
yonng woman not especially- ot beau -
V or endowed with such lightweight
frivolities as are usually attractive to
men. In otber words, there was a lot
to her, though I admit the words are
O very poor description. I met her at
O week end visit early in the summer
and, having settled upon her as the
lady intended for me, showed her ecm-
siderable attention. To tell the truth,
she interested me in conversation and
I preferred her company.
I met Inc at Helen's again in July
and was counting on further pleasant
moments with her, but Ms time she
was principally taken up with a Mr.
Judkins, whom she seemed never to
tire of. If I were talking with Inc and
Judkins came up she would dismiss
me with a nod, accompanied by a
smile, and I was thus corumanded to
give place to him. After tiu:ee days
at Fernwood I went back to town dis-
gruntled.
During the longer period I swat at
Fanwood Miss Jewett was again a
visitor there. She seemed delighted to
meet me again, and we were getting
on nicely when that fellow Judith's re-
appeared, aad again my association
vitt' Miss Jewett was broken up.
"/ suppose," I grumbled to my host-
ess, "that you've got another couple
besides me and my unknown to bring
ogetheta-stries Sewett and that Cad
lalkii1S. What she can see in him"—
Elelen smiled and turned away with -
tit listening to the rest of it and I
went ell to bunt up some of the other
pinsters, none of whom interested use
n the least, Judkins went away Sun-
ny afternoon, and I spent Sunday
vening in a tete-a-tete with "Ms so-
ectIon," which was whim I considered
er. She had the tact to ignore him
°iv that he was gone, and I had never
nown her to be so entertaining.
Not long after this I told Helen that
er selection plan 101' 1110 must have
one anew, since 1 bad evidently run
cross Judith's' affinity. But she turns
d the subject, giving me to satisfac-
011.
