Golden Text, Zech. 9. 9. Verse 1. And when they draw nigh unto Jerusalem -Since leav- ing Jericho, Jesus and the company of pilgrims with him had traveled about fifteen miles. Part of this journey was through a wild and dangerous country, the scene of the parable of the good. Samaritan. On the way, the incidents of the coming of the rieh young man to Jesus and the healing of blind J3ar-. timasus have taken place. 01' his teaching by the wayside we have already studied in this series of lessons the parables of the laborers in the vineyard and the pounds and the talents; also his prophecy of lits death and his wards to his dis- ciples about greatness through sere vice. Bethphage-A place which cannot be identified. Bethany -A village on the south- east slope of the Mount of Olives and about two mile's from Jeru- salem. This was the home of Laz- arus and his sisters, Martha and Mary. Here was also the house of Simon the leper, where Jesus was anointed by Mary (Mark 14. 3; John 12. 1-3). The mount of Olives -This name is given to the range of hills east of Jerusalem, They are separated from the city by the valley of 1 id- ron. The height of the ridge', is about 2,600 feet above the Mediter- ranean. Two of his disciples -The names of these disciples are not given, but it is supposed, from the minuteness of the description given by Mark, that Peter, from whom Mark re= ceived much of the material con- tained in his Gospel, was one of the two. 2. The village that is over against you -Matthew (21. 1) mentions only l3ethphage, and his account indi- cates that this was the village to which the disciples were sent.

In the East, the ass -is larger and swifter than with us, In contrast with the. horse,which had been brought from l.. 't'b ':, i.. gyp y Solprnon for'itse rn w.0 , tlie, ass was a symbol of peace. Preen the words of the priiphet (Zech: 9. 9) all Jews expected•,the Messiah to, enter J'erusa'lem r riding upon an ass. • Whereon no man ever ,yet sat,-- Matthew aL - MaLthew mentions (21.-2) that .•the colt was , still running' with its mother, and had therefore not been used. Jewish tradition •demands new .or unused objects for sacred purposes. Compare 1 Sam. 6. 7. 3. The' Lord hath need of him= "Lord," or ' `Master," was the title so frequently used by the disciples and others it speaking to Jesus'that its•' use here seems merely to indi- cate in general his relation to'•his disciples. It is quite possible that the owner of rite colt` was a friend of Jesus and a believer. And straightway he will send him, back hither -He promises to return the colt at once. 5. Certain of them that stood there -=Luke •says it was the owners that asked the question. Perhaps the owners and others were stand- ing near and saw bhe disciples. Caston hire their garments - Their outer robes or long coats. As they had no trappings for this colt, the garments would 'serve as a saddle, though the act of the lis- ciples was also one of homage. ' He sat ripen him -The 'entry of Jesus into Jerusalem in this manner, fulfilling the prophecy well known to the Jews, can have no other meaning than that ,Jesus publicly announced himself as the Messiah, or rather, he accepted from his dis- ciples and others the title which they had long desired to give him. 8. Many spread their garments upon the way -To do honor to him as a king (compare 2 Kings 9. 13). Branches, which they had cut from the fields -Matthew speaks of branches being cut from trees; and along this road from Bethany to Jerusalem grew palm, olive, and other trees from which branches might be cut; but the word "branches" used by Markt refers rather to the leafy twigs or "lay- ers of leaves;" rushes, and the like, which would make a road easy to travel. This was a form of homage in ancient times which grew out of a desire to make the road smooth and pleasant for traveling, 9. Hosanna -Meaning, save now, Taken from Psa. 118. 25, 26, a prayer that Jehovah will be pro- pitious to his people. Here, it is probably a prayer that the salvation which the Messiah was expected to bring may now be accomplished, though the enthusiastic people speak the words with a shout of joicing. Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord -In the thought of the people, the Messiah was to represent Jehovah, and his king- dom would•be a viceregency. 10. The kingdom that cometh- The present tensef is d, seem- ed to )ile that the kingdom was in sight.peo Tlie kingdom oour fuseatherIt David -These words are peculiar to Mark and show that the people, even at this hour, expected a kingdom which, after a long lepge, would re- vive the splendors of the kingdom of David. Hosanntheain the highest -Or, the highest places. The exclamation is therefore a prayer for God to save them in the highest heaven where he reigns. • 11. Into the temple -Upon enter- ing the city Jesus passed at once to the temple, the place which gave the city its significance, while the crowd, with dusty feet and gar- ments, left him and dispersed. Looked round about upon ail things -No doubt Jesus had gone to the temple to worship, and the things upon which he looked may have been the traffic in animals for the passover sacrifices and the deal- ings' of the. money -changers, both of which were to receive so sharp attention from him the next, morn- ing (see Mark 11. 15-18).. Matthew, however, places the cleansing of the temple immediately after the tri- umphal entry. Ho invent out unto Bethany with the twelve -At eventide Jesus walk- ed in company with his disciples over the road which he had so re, cently traversed amid the. acclaims of the multitude. In the village, surr'ounded'by his friends, whom he. loved, "his 'life lapses again into its quiet ways, and he becomes once More the teacher and benefactor." RING OBEYED ORDERS.

Joseph Martin has held a career unmatched in Canadian politics. He left his birthplace in Milton, Ont., when a young boy, and before he was out of his teens Inc was a telegraph operator in the • United States. Then came the panic of 1873, and he returned to Canada to become successively a school teacher, a lawyer, and to profes-. sional politician.

"He might be a good leader in time of war, but not in time of peace; and a mighty poor follower 'at any time," •so he once was summed up.

While there he roused the whole country by stating that "Mr: Speaker was the meet unscrupulous partisan he had ever met," The Legislature refused to proceed with business until he apologized.

When the Liberals came into power Martin became Attorney -General in Thomas Greenw•ay's Cabinet. Among Other, remarkable demon- strationsof his iri•dividuality Inc an- nounced that the French language would be abolished in the Separ- ate Schools. This, it is said, was the commencement of the Manito- ba school question. Was B. C. Premier. Mr. Martin was next heard of in the Dominion House as member for Winnipeg. He sat there .from 1893 until 1890, when his faculty .for disagreeing with other people and standing rigidly for his principles led to his defeat. Then he went faabhet West, and of Bourse soon became a political factor in British Columbia. There, in spite of the dislike of the vested interests and the regales politi- cians and enemies who took a pot shot at hien whenever possible, Mr. Martin became Premier of the Pro- vince. Lieutenant -Governor Mc- Innes, in a period of turmoil ie which "Fighting Joe" mixed mer- rily, dismissed Premier Semlin, and called on MrMartin, who had been Attorney -General, to form a Cabinet: : The situation did not please the members, ' who with Western impulsiveness filed out of the House through one door as the :Governor came in the:other to prorogue the House. Martin hur- riedly got together a Cabinet, but in the ensuing election he was giv- en a tremendous . trouncing, win- ning only nine seats. After that the "stormy petrel" bobbed up in England.- He . was elected member of. the British House of Oommons for East St. Pancras, London, in 1910 arid' has since held that seat, where, they say, they "can't get anyone toe Radical for them." In Britain Mr, Martin has been as lively a "kiok- er" as ei:er. He has made things uneomifortable .,. for Premier As- quith on various occasions and has especially`delighted in "roasting" Hon.

Martin has not told ns just where he is going to settle; but if he retnrns`to Canada he will be heard fromn,as easily one place .as. another,, It is most startling to discover, amid the multitude of creeds, ritu- als and institutions which have cum- bered the centuries of Christian history. that, as Professor Henry H. Walker has expressed it, "Jesus established no church, organized system of worship, taught no essen- tially new doctrine, wrote no gos- pel,` left behind no system of laws; . . that the Christian religion be- gan not as an institution, nor as a ritual, nor as a creed -but as an experience, a life, an inspiration." A great part of the opposition which the Nazarene encountered was aroused by the fact that He cared so little about those external matters of organization and dogma which the people of His clay regard- ed as the essence of religion. As to whether God was Worshipped up- on the mountain in 'Samaria or in the temple at Jerusalem He was in- different. For the sacrifices and' the oblations, the altars and the shrines, the holy places and holy days IIe had little or no concern. What held His attention was the Abiding Reality of the Spirit. What, dominated His interest was the problem of life of the soul. Once assured that a pian had clean hands and a ptn'e heart, was genuinely moved by love for humankind and had met God face to face in the high, clear altitudes of spiritual fellowship, He did not care before what altar he worshipped, in what language he prayed or by what name he called his deity. Strange and pathetic it is now to see how largely chw'oltes of Christendom have interested them- selves in these very externals which. meant so little to Jesus. In- deed, it is only truth to say that there never would 'have been such phenomena as churches, in contra- distinction to the Church, if the disciples of the Master had not for- gotten those inward realities of the spirit which always unite and paid devout attention to those outward forms of ceremony and belief which always divide. Read. the history of Christianity, and what do we have but the story of an uninterrupted struggle over :forms of organization, methods of discipline, conditions of membership and definition of faith! Now and again solve prophet has arisen to speak his message of the spirit and to smite with the light- ning bolt of his inspired wrath the false gods of the recreant Church. But always has be been silenced or slain by the wearers of mitres, the quibblers of phrases and the lovers of phylacteries. And even to -day, when "Bade to Jesus{" has become so loud a cry, institu- tions, creeds and sacraments seem still to be vital issues of Christian experience. What wonder that a so- ber historian can say that the Church has ever been "more vital- ly interested in the :.;fence of re- ligion than in religion itself 1' It is impossible to remind our- selves too often of. what Jesus taught and lived -to recall, both .for our own spiritual health and for the salvation of the world, that pure religion of the spirit to which He lent the authority of His prophetic genius. The issue here is perfectly plain between the one thing which is essential and the many other. things which are non-essential. And this issue must be faced, regardless of dear traditions and tender sensi- bilities, until that hour at last is come when men shall know that "God is a spirit, and they that wor- ship Him must worship Him in spirit .and in truth." -Rev. John - Haynes Holmes. F The 'Last Item. A famous novelist staying at a certain hotel in Canada was so an- noyed by the lack of attention he received that in It moment of irrita- tion he asked to see the proprietor. "I just wanted to tell you," said the author when the proprietor ap- peared, that of all the hotels under the shining sun I have never been in one that for unmitigated, all. round unendurable discomfort could equal yours." After the indignant landlord had withdrawn the author asked for his bill, and he discover- ed' that the last item on it was - "To impudence -$3" 1 LA.BATT'S STOUT The very hest for use in ill -health and convalescence Awarded Medal and Highest Points in America at World's Fair, 1.893 PURE -SOUND -WHOLESOME JOHN LABATT, LIMITED, LONDON, CANADA THIS I5 A STORE OF DEPENDABLE VALUES A store that keeps in touch with the constantly changing jewelry styles.
