OTHER MIGHTY WORKS OF JESUS. -Mark 5 22-43, Golden Text—Thy faith hath spade thee whole. -Mark 5:34, The Lesson. Int Its Setting. Time—Autumn of A.D. 28, in the second year : of Christ's ministry. Place-Capernaum, Jesus Heals The Woman -Whom Touched His Garment;`. And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name: Our Lord had just returned from the eastern shore of the Sea of Galilee, where He had driven the legion of demons : out of the body of the dem- oniac into the herd of swine. He was again on the western shore, near Cap- ernaum. In this crowd was a notable man. His name, Jairus, is given in the account, and we seldom learn the names of those for whom Christ worked His miracles: The synagogue rulers presided' over the elders of the synagogue, and superintended the synagogtie services, having among other duties that of appointing the speaker of the day or reader of the Bible passages. Arid seeing Him, he ,falleth at His feet. If he was so closely associated with the former miracle, worked for the .centurion,' he was ready, important.man as he was, to fall at the feet of the carpenter's Son, well knowing the Divine power that rested in Him. And beseecheth Him much, saying My little daughter is at the point of death. She was his only daughter, as we learn from Luke 8:42, and his use of the affectionate term, "little," in- dicates how dear she was to hiui. I pray Thee, that ,Thou come and lay Thy hands on her, that she may be made whole, and live, To any affec- tionate soul the imminent peril of some loved one is far more grievous than any loss of pain that might threaten himself. If this father had known of the healing of the centur- ions servant by the thought of Christ sent from a distance, he showed less faith than that heathen Roman when he asked the Lord to go ind lay His hands on, the dying girl, that the healig influence might pass from Hini into her wasted form. And He went with him; and a great multitude followed Him, and they thronged Him. At once Jesus left the seashore, where He had been teaching, and followed the ruler of the synagogue, His disciples accmpany- ing Him.: And a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years,': Her rnalacjy had lasted as long as the other sufferer now solicitingthe compassion of Jesus: had lived. `The length of time points perhaps, to the :hemorrhage being of a priodical Lind, And had suffered many things of many physicians, We know some of the foolish remedies prescribed' for this malady by Jewish, physicians, such as a'mixture of Alexandrian gum with alum and crocus, And had spent all that she had, and was 'nothing bet- tered, but rather grew worse. Those who arc fond of criticizing the phys- icians and surgeons of to -day :should, study the art of healing as practised: hi ancient tines, aid to -day by the. doctors of heathen lands. Having. heard the things concerning Jesus. She was evidently not a wo- man of. Caperilaum, where so many of Christ's 'miracles had been worked, but front some distant place to which the rumors of those blessed marvels of healing had penetrated, She was sure that Jesus could cure, and she ]chew that lIis help was free.

Upper Lefts,—Type of airplane that conveyed the flowers to Franco. Upper Right:—Specimen of the roses from the Dale Estate, Brampton, Ontario. Lower: --Canadian Pacific liner Mentcalm on which the roses' left Saint John for England:, : , A gesture of courtesy that used as its means of ex pression the fragile flowers of the heart of summer conveyed by railway, steamship and airplane, over three thousand miles of land and sea, in the depth of winter, to two ladies in France, was chroni- cled in the information given out by the Canadian Pacific Express Company. The flowers were two boxes of rpses, grown in the huge greenhouses of the Dale Estate, Brampton, Ontario, and snot by Lieutenant-Colonel J. B. Mac-' lean, president of the Maclean Publishing . Company, of Toronto, to :Princess Carolyn de Faucilgny-Lucinge, who was a patient in the American Hospital in Paris, and to the Countess Odon de Lubersae. They were sent as a Christmas present to those ladies, but the weather intervened, and they did not reach their destination until seine three days' later. When they did reach their objectives, however, it was found that they were as fragrant and fresh as if they had been plucked a few minutes earlier from their bushes. The Canadian 'Pacific Express Company was re s.,,nsible for the handling of the roses from Brampton via Saint John and overseas an board' the SS. "Mont: calm" to Liverpool. They arrived at the latter city December 23, and were then shipped to the Croydon airdrome; to be 'carried by airship to Paris. Their despatch from this country had been timed to the minute to decorate the ladies' breakfast tables on Christmas morning' in Paris. "But the storm that struck Great Britain around the Christmas season had a say in the .matter: The airdrome was snowed under, and it was found impos- sible to send out an airship. The roses were held up and did not finally reach Paris until December' 28, when they were delivered promptly, The disappoint- ment was more to the sender and theexpress com- pany who bad strained every resource to get the flowers to their destination on time and who were only defeated by weather •that was unprecedented in Great Britain, and that could not be foreseen and guarded against. What the recipients' reactions to the gifts were, are not chronicled, but it is fairly sure that they were delighted with these • Canadian flowers from a Canadian gentleman, and impressed by the tour de forceof their despatch„which dis- proved the words of their great national poet, who mourns hi one of his best-known poems that the rose "endures but the space of a morning." 0 woman at once felt such a thrill of fresh life and strength pervading her worn frame that she instantly knew herself: to be cured completely, And Helooked round about to see her that had, done this thing. The Greek implies a searching glance, ex- amining the members of the crowd, one after the other. 'Bet the woman fearing and trem- bling, knowing what had been done to her, She was afraid of Christ's re- buke, for she was ceremonially un- clean, and her: touch would have made Christ "unclean" until the evening. It is bard for human beings, limited as they are, to comprehend the illimit- able supply of Omnipotence. Came I and fell down before Hun and told Him all the truth. Her disease was regarded as disgraceful and as an evi- dence of sin, yet she told all about it before all the people (Luke 8:47), with, we may be sure, a great burst of praise and thanksgiving for her cure. And He said ,unto her,, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole. She only far is the o y om n ry a so as is re- corded, whom Christ addressed by the kindly term, "Daughter." Faith always ns drew from. Him some warm w expression of approval.. Go in peace, and be whole of thy plague, More literally,• "Go into peace," for, peace was from that time to be the country in which she was to dwell, she whose life had been one long distress for twelve years. Jesus Raises I+fom The Dead The Daughter of Jairus. While He yet' spake, they carne from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying, thy daughter is dead.; We may imagine the impatience of the synagogue ogue fu1ei at this interrup- tion, nterrn -tion, His daughter was dying when he set out to get Jesus. Every minute was precious and here was all this time hist inhealing awlmi,an whose case had lasted twelve years ' and might well have waited an hour long- er—healing her 'and listcuiiig to her explanatione, Surely if ever a man's faith was tried, it was the faith 'of this pots father: Why troublest thou the Teacher any further? The messen- gers, and apparently the father, had no idea the Christ could raise the dead, So far as is recorded, our 1'.ot•d hacl up to Ibis time worked only one resurrection miracle and that was at Nein. But Jesifs, .not heeding the word spoken, said unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, duly believe. 1)o not fear even death; believe yo strongly on me that you can rise a- bove even this 'terrible erisis on the wings of your faith, jesus saw that the rim had conte l el to separate the.distracted father from the crowd, in order that his faith might not fail because of their con- dolings. Very' likely the Eastern death wail had begun to be raised at the reception of the sad news. Jesus would not even allow all of the Twelve to follow, only Peter and James and John, whose faith He was sure would strengthen and uphold that of the ruler of the synagogue. And taking the child by the hand, He saith unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, 1 say unto thee, Arise. It is clear that Jesus usually spoke in Aramaic, the ordinary language of Palestine, and that Peter, remembering Christ's exact words, told them to Mark. Aucl straightway the damsel rose Sunday night after church. Both the Henderson boys are far away from the old home. But Sunday .is still a very special day for, Father and Mother, for every Sunday night after church the tele- phone bell rings and the old folks know that t i t one of the boys ys is calling them from the distant city. Harry calls one week, and Fred the next. Long Distance is wonderful for keeping family ties strong. It is so simple, so inexpensive to call distant friends for a few minutes' chat. And how welcome is the sound of their voices! Do you call friends by Long Distance? The Evening Rate after 8.30 is very low., ;$b '1 II b cettliA "Zoe* Bali.

The mention of her age is to account for , her walking; shewas not too young for that. Compare the marvellous ease of Christ in working this miracle with the strenuous labor of Elijah and of Elisha in working their resurrection miracles: I Kings 17: 17-22; 2 Kings 4: 32-35. And they were amazed straightway with great amazement. The another and father, primarily, and even the disciples accustomed to mar- vels .as they were. Moffat translates it well, . "They were lost in utter a- mazement." GORRIE A large crowd, attended the play "Mary Made Some Marmalade", pre- sented at Gorrie on Friday night by the Newbridge Dramatic Club under the auspices of the rink committee. Those taking part are to be congrat- ulated on the splendid way in which the play was presented, The Gorrie hockey team was de- feated by a score of 5-2 by Wroxet- er on Thursday evening.

Timm and Miss Winnie Rae of Wroxeter had the affirmative and Miss Nellie Dame and Miss Elizabeth; Cathers of Gorrie the negative.
