The Jewish lead- en er'deavor to catch Jesus n some utterance which may be used to Ilis- •credit.him with the mass of the peo- ple. Jesus returns an answer which holds out no hope to the anti=Roman policy of his time. He refuses to make the coming of God's kingdom equivalent to national revolt from Ctesar, and so he is rejected. In the second part of our lesson we see that Jesus put forward as the real essence of the reign of God, namely, . love to God and to man. Love, not hatred, is Jesus' ideal for his nation. Love _.ought to take precedence over every other feeling and to govern the whole of life. I. ,CHRIST'S. FINAL REJECTION OF THE NATIONAL POLITICAL CONCEPf10N OF THE KINGDOM, 13-17. V. 13. We have already learned to knew the two classes of people who here encounter Jesus: the religious zest of the Pharisees, who emphasized the law, and the political faction of the Herodians who supported the na- tive Herod princes, The two classes' did not always see eye to eye, but they united to oppose Jesus (see Mark 3: 6). They now try to catch Jesus in nine statement which may be turned against him V. 14. The plot is skillfully and .adroitly laid. They begin by profess- ing the most worshipful respect for ,511 Farm Notes GROWING HEALTHY' ULBS The brilliant beds of flowering bulbs that help greatly to brighten the Wring menthe lead's one to consider the culture: and propagationof the various lcinde grown in Canadian gar- dens. The commercial culture of bulbs in Canada le not yet very ex- tensive. In recent years, however, considerable interest has been mane fested in the raising of the gladiolus commercially and to a lesser extent the tulip, narcissusand hyacinth. 'In oifering a word of caution to those who would grow these bulbs for mar- keting purposes, Mr, F. L. Drayton, Plant Pathologist at the .Experimental Farm, Ottawa. urges in a new bul- letin, Number 95, the importance of refraining from planting a bulb of any kind that is affected with disease. The Botanical Division has been giv- ing this subject careful study and has commenced specific research into the causes and prevention of diseases affecting bulbs, corms, rhizomes, and similar forms of ornamental plants. The information thus far gained, to- gether with the results obtained by other investigators, is presented in this bulletin for the guidance of Can- adian growers. Assisted by photo- graphic illustrations the test deals with diseases of the tulip, narcissus and hyacinth, covering in an interest- ing way points of fundamental im- .portance to the production of a heal- thy crop of flowering bulbs.

Only the Ro- man government had the right to coin silver money in Palestine. Jesus ap- peals to this fact as showing that the Roman overlordship in Palestine had a sufficient ground and basis in law. "Whose features are these which are stamped on this coin? Whose name is this which is engraved round its borders?" There was, of course, only one answer, namely, "Caesar's." V. 17. So Jesus rejoins: Duty to God does not exclude duty to ntan. The claim of God to the whole obedience of his people does not mean that they are exempt froth paying taxes to the power which establishes order and good government in their midst. It benefits are conferred, obligations fol- low. The supreme point of the an- swer is that Jesus refuses to confuse the . spiritualreign of God with the Jewish dream of political self -govern - meat. This refusal alienates and in- _ furiates the fanatical party among his hearers. National selfishness has made them blind to the higher things of God. II. LOVE AS THE LAW OF THE KINGDOM, 28-34. V. 28. Appropriately we take this incident with the foregoing. The re- quirements of the Jewish law were so numerous that thoughtful and earnest men in Israel found themselves driven to seek the underlying principle which explains all thecommandments. What is this underlying principle? "Which is the first of all commandments?" Vs. 29-31• Jesus' answer is to sum up everything under love—love to God and love to men. Love to God must be absolute. The whole of our person- ality was made for. God., and belongs to him, heart, soul, mind, strength. But along with this love to God—be- cause includedin it—must go love to our neighbor, t pour fellow -men. Jesus represents the whole law as turning on this sovereign principle of love. We might say that "heart" refers to the "affections, "soul" to the sense of things unseen, "mind" to the knowl- edge of the divine will which is given to us, and "strength" to the doing of our work.

A medicine for the baby or growing child—one that the mother can feel. assured is absolutely safe as well as efficient—is found in Baby's Own Tab- lets. The Tablets are praised by thousands of mothers throughout the country. These mothers have found by actual experience that there is no other medicine for little ones to equal them. Once a mother has used them for her children she will use nothing else. Concerning them Mrs. Charles Hutt, Tancock Island, N.S., writes:— "I have ten children, the baby being just six months old. I have used Baby's Own Tablets for them for the past 20 years and can truthfully say that I know of no better medicine for little ones. I always keep a box of the Tablets in the house and would advise all other mothers to do so." Baby's Own Tablets are sold by all medicine dealers or will be mailed upon receipt of price, 25 cents per box, by The Dr. Williams' Medicine co., Brockville, Ont.

Little, Gators' Dresses Some of the prettiest frocks for little girls shown In tbo, Moat exolii-. Sive shops this Year may be quickly and very °ashy 'copied by the busy homemaller. Take, for example, the orsaudie !rooks in pastel colors. Sonie have sleeves and some have none. And their sole ornamentation, aside from a little lace at neck and armholes, are two medallions about two inches in elameter, , set on like tiny pockets where little "girls want their pockets to be. Some of those medallions are of handmade Irish crochet and some are of Teilerifle lace. In this modern version they carry out the effect of tiny Jackets, for the.• closed semicircle at the bottom where they are sewed to the garment be mit- lined with embroidery silk, the design continuing above the medallion to form au ellipse like the handle of the basket, with five or six flowers and a few leaves at the top. The effect is truly delightful and acoompiiseed In only a few minutes by the expert needlewoman. Ribbon' Ruffles For beat, there are the simple little sleeveless frocks of China and other silks that launder beautifully. They are little straight things, plain at the bottom, slightly gathered at the top, with slits in the underarm seam for armholes and are only rounded out a little at the neck to give that long oval line from shoulder to shoulder that is so becoming to childhood.• Around the neck and armholes there are three rows of tiny ruffles, and in then lies the modern note, For they are made of ribbon about three-fourths of an inch wide that ex- actly matches the material. And they are ruffled with the gatherer that comes with every sewing machine, with a narrow heading at the top and tiny uniform plaits that are their chief charm. In the most expensive shops these ruffles are blind -stitched on by hand, so as not to disfigure with ma- chine stitching the exquisite plaiting. A small bow with streamers, extend- ing to the hem of the tiny garment' will make any little girl very happy in this charming frock. t=rench Panties The very latest thing for little girls' underwear is the comfortable French pantie that never shows beneath the frock, no matter how short. that may be. Two-thirds of a yard of soft nain-, sook or other suitable material wlll make a pair of these for girls from 4 to 0 years of age. For larger children, Make the pattern in proportion. For Miss Four to Six, make the pat- tern by folding cross -wise a piece of newspaper 24 inches square, then doubling it in halves again so it forma a small square. This last crease indi- cates the middle of the front and back of the garment, and is the one from which the following two measure- ments are taken. With the newspaper still four -ply: Measure three inches from this last made crease and mark the distance on the fold first made. Eight inches from the middle of the pattern on the open edge make another mark. With, a ruler draw a line from this dot to the open edge of the paper where it was first folded. Now measure eight inches down on this line from the open top, connect that point with the first one made, and cut out the 'pat- tern along the two sharply slanting lines. The open edges at the top are to be gathered slightly to fit the bands -- which are cut three inches wide from the remaining material after the pant- ies have been cut out; so hollow one of them about an inch toward the middle crease to make the front fit well. Join the side seams after leav- ing three inches at the top to be faced as plackets. The sharply slanting openings are the legs of the panties and may be finished with a tine rolled hem, with bias seam binding or with a dainty lace edging whipped on. Such garments are to be buttoned to a neatly fitting underwalat made of the same material. Throughout most of Ontario the bests -time to plant dahlias is from the last week in May until the second week in June. The best soil is sandy, well drained, deeply tilled and gener- ously fertilized. As this plant will grow to a height of about four feet, it ie necessary to space about the sante distance apart The tubers should be placed on their sides with the buds pointing upwards in holes six inches deep. Close to this drive a stake to which the plant is tied as it grows up. Nip off all but one or two side shoots where large flowers are desired. IN THE VEGETABLE GARDEN A second or third planting of vege- tables such as spinach, lettuce, on- ions, beets and carrots can go in now. Among the older rows which are well established, one must. cultivate and thin if the stuff is to be kept growing quickly. A little nitrate of soda every ten days will be found a wonderful help to keep the garden green and growing. If convenient, it is also ad- visable to give a thorough soaking with water every three or four days, if the weather is dry. In watering, always • remember both with flowers and vegetables that one thorough weekly soaking is worth a dozen daily sprinklings. After this watering or a rain, get out the hoe and loosen up the top soil so that the moisture may be conserved. } Keeper: Can't you read that notice: "No fishing allowed?"
