"I wonder if it ever has occurred
to you," Dr. Morrison said to a
Pall Mall Gazette interviewer,
"that not long ago the greater part
of the country was without ade-
quate means of illumination at
night? Do you realize what such a
simple thing as the introduction of
oil is doing? It is literally bright-
ening the lives of the people and
relieving them from the dullness
and monotony of evenings spent al-
most in the dark. No wonder so
many were formerly driven to
smoke opium. But to distribute
oil efficiently more railwaysare
needed. Of course the big cities are
getting the electric light. These
changes are not all the result of the
revolution; they rather helped to
produce it. Millions and millions
of people suddenly lifted out of
darkness and placed in possession
of intelligent newspapers and light
to read them by -think what that
means in the oldest empire on
earth 1"

Lesson V. -The 'sign and the lea-
yen, Mark 8. 11-26. Golden
Text, 3'ohnS. 12.
Verse' 11. The:Pharisee's, - Mat-
thew acids the Sadducees, who thus
far have not appeared as parties
in any 'meeting_wueh Jesus.
Came forth -Perhaps from their
homes in the neighborhood of Dal-
manutha (v. 10), or from the cities!
at a greater distance.
Began to question with him -
Seeking to entangle him in his
speech'
A , sign -Some extraordinary..
manifestation beyond his usual
words and works.
12. Sighed -Or, groaned. Jesus
was grieved by the obstinacy of the
Pharisees, which he knew would
shortly lead to open hostility and.
final separation.
This generation -The Pharisees
were typical representatives of the
religious leadership of their time.
13. To the other side -The loca-
tion of Dalmanutha being un-
known, it is impossible to 'deter-
mine whether the eastern or the
western shore is here meant.
Jesus may have crossed the north
or northwest part of the lake in
either direction, .proceeding from
the place of landing gradually to-
ward Bethsaida, where, according
to verso 22, he arrived shortly af-
terward.
14. Forgot to take bread -The
duty of securing the provisions
needed for the journey would de-
volve naturally upon- Judas, who
was the treasurer 'of the apostolic
company. It is quite likely, how-
ever, that some one or two of the
other disciples shared this respon-
sibility with him.
15. Beware of the leaven- Jesus
is speaking in figurative language,
referring to the contaminating evil
influence of the Pharisees and the
courtiers and followers of Herod.
The repetition of the '',word ' lea-
ven" indicates perhaps distinct
kinds of corrupting influences em-
anating respectively from the teach-
ing of the Pharisees and the court
practices of the king.
16. Reasoned one with another -
Debated what the significance of
the Master's words might be.
Of course the police can never
bring themselves to hear with pati-
ence of the exploits of the "book
detective." His teet tubes, his mi-
croscope, his elaborate analysis -
all these, as exemplified in Sherlock
Holmes, are repungnant to the
'professional thief catcher. If you
wish to know the full weight of
human scorn go to the police sta-
tion and sound the praises of the
"book detective." Nevertheless,
there is something to be said for
Sheriock's method, as even the of-
ficial police in some parts of the
world are beginning to admit. The
Irish government has been glad to
avail itself of the skill of Dr. E. J.

detect, with the aid of a microscope,
the difference between blood stains

the blood was that of a mammalian

analysis stopped there. But Dr.
MeWeeney is able to determine with
certainty the exact species from
which asample of blood is taken.
And this discovery is regarded as
of great importance in assisting the
police in . theirwork of detecting
and punishing those guilty of
the most serious crime. Is it fan-

E KNEW WHAT WAS IN

That Is Why Jesus of Nazareth Did Not Give Us Up
He Saw Below the Surface. •
In all that you have learned with- philosophy with which to take these
in or without the schools, there is
nothing more important than' what
you know 'or believe you know
about human nature. You have
been told many conflicting things.
You have been told that men are
on the whole very good, that they
are friendly, generous, trustwor-
things lightly, They were, to Him
infinitely more dreadful than the
lash or the erown'of`thorns. The
worst, of them was disloyalty -the
disloyalty of his friends. "He
came unto his own and his own re-
ceived him not." He wept over Je-
rusalem and said: "0 Jerusalem,
thy, and that the joy of life' lies in Jerusalem, thou that killest the
friendship and in co-operation with prophets and stonest them that are
your fellows. You have been told sent .unto thee, how often would I
that where men do fall short of have gathered your children to -
what they should be they are teach- gether even as a hen doth gather

right, and that the highest and' one of the twelve for money. On
happiest life work is in some way the last night they all 'forsook him
to make men better, and then to and fled. And one of them, that

of Nazareth, you may find a place

there lives an unconquerable cour-
age for every circumstance and for
every task which can come to you
before the going down of the sun.

all his teaching, that they failed to According to this tragic view of
life, Moses, the nation maker, who
leads the people out of Egypt
through the desert toward the Holy
Land, is always stricken with de-
spair, not by his enemies but by
the perversity and treachery of his
own people, and is always forced
to cry to God ae Moses did for death
as an escape from his intolerable
burden.
Now, in hearing and weighing
these and other conflicting views as
to what the truth is about human
nature, it is surely worth while to
hear and to weigh the view of Him
of whom it was said, "He knew
what was in man." What did He
see in us?
For one thing, He saw the evil. No
man hater ever saw it blacker. He
knew that there

different Greek words. In this
verse a small wicker or individual
traveling basket is meant; in verse
20 a larger basket or hamper. Tho

Mark is careful to make in com-

22. Bethsaida-Probably Beth-
Saida Julies, on the northeastern
shore, is meant, though it may
have been the Bethsaida on the
west side of the lake. The former
city would be a little nearer to the
villages of Caesarea Philippi, vis-
ited immediately afterward. Com-
pare verse 27.
A blind man -The blazing sun

this and similar instances united
his own miraculous power with
means already in use among men,
thus directing the thought and

lower to the higher means.

Snails Can Exist Indefinitely With-

While the snail has lungs, heart,
and a general circulation and is in
every respect an air -breathing crea-
ture, it can nevertheless exist inde-
finitely without inhaling the least
breath of air, the element that is
usually considered the essential in
existence in all creatures supplied
with lungs.
"To all organized creatures,",

gen, water, nourishment and heat'

statement was made Leppert did

or all the usual life conditions can
be removed in the sass of the snail
without terminating its existence
or in any way impairing its func-

The common snail retreats into
his shell on the approach of frosty
weather and the opening or mouth
of its shell is hermetically sealed by
a secretion which is of a silky tex-
ture and absolutely impervious to
air and water. In this condition it
is plain that it is deprived of three
