The boldness of Po?. • been s more apparent, and ha rho: - an utter disregard of the consem, - ces, provided he can preach Ch'L and Him crhfic•ifi "1 to the Jews. In the last two lessons we. :ntv something. of the rapidity with whim the Church ,grew under the preach- ing of the apostles. So astounding was the growth of this new faith that it immediately excited the jeal- ousy and hatred of the Pharisees and the Saddueees. The latter in parti- cular seem to have been most viru- lent in their opposition to the new teaching. As the Saddueees, we are told, denied the resurrection,. and as the resurrection of tete Lord Jesus formed the chief theme of Peter's discourse, their hatred of this new teaching can be understood. The attitude of mind represented )..y these two sects should teach us lessons to- day, indicating, as they do, the dan- gers of unreasoning prejuduce and bitter hostility. The sensible thing to have done would hare been to' examine the claims of these Balileans. The Sanhedrin had heard them preach, had listened to their doctrine, had seen its wonderful results on the lives of thousands; they had put the apostles in prison, but they had es- caped, leaving behind them locked doors and barred gates and returned to preach the same gospel. Surely err horse amazing events should have caused reasonable sten to pause and x:nnnle this new doctrine and seek Ar. explanation. -Observe that both Phariaeeism end Sadduce,:ism are permanent at- titudes of the human mind." says I;ev. J. Russell Howden in The Sun- day School Times. The former car - responds to formalism and sac'ordo- t listen 'folksy, end the 'letter t:' Mod- ernism, so-called.

"If any man willeth to da his will, he -hall know" (John 7:171. These ignorant Galileans were un- 1ermining the authority of the San- :. drip. It was monstrous that a Galilean fisherman slho Ilei claim to eoriact a Jerusalem rabbi. It was still more monstrous. that the said fishermen should obviously be wield- ing- a power which all the Sanhedrin rout together could not do. The way of common sense would have been for the Sanhedrin to inquire, The way of prejudice, was to persecute. Of- ficialism had been worsted in its first round with truth. Then. exaspera- tion hurried them on to further vio- lence." For the second time the apostles were arrested-andplaced before the Sanhedrin, The one redeeming fea- ture of this "trial" is the sensible conduct of Gamaliel. Here is the in- dictment of the high priest as read to Peter and John: "We strictly charted you that you teach not in this name; and behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man's blood up- on us," It seems as though the chief priest was even afraid to mention the Name of the One who had been erut- cified. He is only "this man," Thus conscience doth make cowards of us all.

As a matter of fact unrc:peorerate people seldom want. to obey God. They love darkness rather. than light because their deeds are evil and the first step in obedience that God wants in the natural man is to hearken to the invitation of the Sav- iour and accept Him. Once again Peter takes the oppor- tunity of pressing home upon the hearers of the Sanhedrin the message of the Gospel as he replies to the accusation of the high priest. The courage of the once vacillating Peter is now sublime. There is no hesita- tion, no compromise in his reply: "The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom yr slew, hanging Hint on a tree. Him did God exalt with His right hand to be a Prince and Saviour to sive repentance to Israel, and remission of sins." This eels the kind of preaching that cost Sohn the Baptist his life, and caused Queen JIiu'y of Scotland to quake as it was thundered forth by John Koex in Edinburgh. It is the preaching of the facts of the Gospel that pees re- sults, hilt creat+'s bitter opposition. MR.BOVAY EXIM HIS THANKS "FRUIT-A-TIVES" ENTIRELY STOPPED DYSPEPSIA AND LIVER TROUBLE 1 MR. R. A. BOVAY. After much suffering, Mr, Roy A. Bovay of Trenton, Ontario, turned to "Fruit-a- tives" for relief from digestive and liver troubles which were making his life a burden. "I wish I could tell every sufferer in the world what 'Fruit-a-tives' have done for me"—he writes—"For years I was much troubled by bad headaches, nervous dys- pepsia and liver trouble. Then I com- menced taking 'Fruit -a -tires'. Thanks to these wonderful tablets, I am once more entirely well" If your nerves are upset, digestion poor, system generally out of kilter. you neat the corrective help which "Fruit-a-tives" unfailingly gives. There is no other medi- cine like "Fruit-a-tives" which is made from the intensified juices of fresh fruits combined with tonics.

"But," and here is the point that leads one to believe that this teacher of the law muse have been strongly impressed by the facts of the. case, "if it is of God ye will not be able to overthrow them; lest haply yo be found even to be fighting against God." The advice of Gamaliel was fol- lowed, Time was to declare wheiiter the matter was of God or of titan, and time has set the seal of God upon the ministry of the Gospel The apostles were then scouraged and let go free. They were having their first experience of what it meant to suf- fer for Christ, and we read they re- joiced "that they were oriented worthy to suffer dishonor for the Name," Happy aro we when we can say that, and can rejoice even in tribulation that Christ has counted us worthy to suffer for His Name, The Directors of the St. Marys Agricultural Society are offering a handsome cash prize ror the best exhibit of Native Wild Flowers, 24 in number, open to persons under 21 years of ago.

POST WHERE THE WOMAN RULES Feminism Has Flourished In Surinam 1br Many Years, If you happen 10 live nut in the jlnitlin of Surinam, in Dutch Guiana, Oe the roast of South America., you will find divorce very easy, If the husband bores thewifeall she has to do le to divorce him. Puhlio npinian, in that remote dis- trict., is strongly in favor of divorce from a bore.

Feminism huts been flourishing there for many years and is so far advanced that the tribes and social customs are all in the hands of wo- men. They have almost a complete matrlareity, Women keep their family names and traditions, which are in turn handed on to their pro- geny. All this we learn from Mrs. limen Metzger Vandercook, sculptress, who returned recently from a lengthy stay in the jungle with her husband, John Vandercook, scientific writer. Re made a study of the native "black magic" while she studied the types for her art. "Although the jungle woman is not officially the head of a tribe or a village, she is recognised as the head of the family," explained Mrs. Van- dercook. "If a woman is the end - product of a family, its name will disappear. Daughters are more de- sirable than sons to preserve the line of family traditions. "When a man marries-- and he marries many times—his wife does not become a member of his family or take his name. She retains her identity and hor name, The children are given her name and are the pro- perty of her family. The father has no real control over the offspring. but he is very interested in them. It is not an uncommon sight to come upon a hush Negro man seated on a low, stool before his wattle house crooning a quiet client to a restive little brawn baby in Itis arms. When the hays are old eneueh to go about by themselves. the father is allowed to assume a share of their education.

SO these primitive !roman of tin bosh have evolved a system by which they save what they love most—their domestic life. That IS one reason inheritances come from the mother's side only, "Jungle women are not interested in dress," continued Mrs, Vander - cook, "They wear only a twelve - inch cloth about the waist. Men wear a loincloth. Youngsters go naked un- til they are 7 or 8, Then clothes. The only feminine adornments are amulets and ankle bracelets knit out of their own hair mixed with bright• ly-colored shells." WALIIN(i .STf0ICS.
