Lesson Passage -Esther 4:x3 to 5:3. Golden Text—Esther 4:14. When Cyrus, king of Persia gave the captive.Views liberty to return. to pve• J, Palestine many chose to, remain,- pre- ferring f their present condition` to the. unknown difficulties on the journey' and,the'deprivations they .might have to face on reaching the homeland. Among these' was Mordecai, who rose to be an important person at Aha- suerus' Court. Who wrote the Book of Esther is not definitely stated but this 'Morde- cai wrote at least a part of it (Chap: 9:2o.) It. is 'the complete story of a plot to destroy the Jewish nation,and of how -one' event dove -tailed' into another until the • plot . was entirely: over=thrown, and many of those ,who sought their.,lives, lost their own. The name of God is not mentioned in the Book, but the hand of Providence is easily traced throughout.' 'The story opens with the diecrip- tion of a feast given by- the king at which the:queen Vashti refused to ap- pear wheh'*ailed, it being contrary to all previous custom that she should. Her disposition- and the choosing of 'Esther .as heft` successor` are graphic- ally de'scribee Then follows an ac- count of Mttrdecia falling under the' disfavor, of Haman, the king's chief. attendant, and his plotting to punish Mordccia by obtaining from the king made by Mordecia'to rescue' his peo- ail edict >'against the whole Jewish race. Today's lesson give the efforts pie from such afate. He went out into the city,. having put .on sackcloth with ashes, and cried with a loud bitter cry. This was told to 'Esther, who although raised to the position of Queen still retained a kindly interest in him, who had been her guardian when she, 'was:', left an o,rphan. She sent clothes to him but he, refused to put them on. Then Esther called on of her attendants and had hien inquire of Mordeeia, "what it was andwhy it was." This attendant brought back a full account of 'all trouble; how Haman became incensed because Mor- decai could'not, conscientiously and, therefore, ' would: not, bow before him and do him:reverence;, how Ha- man. intrigued against him by saying. "There is a certain ,pedpie scattered abroad and dispersed ; among the people , in' all • the provinces of thy kingdom; and their lads are diverse -from all people; neither -keep they, the king's laws; therefore it is not for the King's profit to' suffer ,thena" More decal sent Esther also copy of the edict thatslie might see for herself the clanger that she and her people were in. He charged, Win to tell tier she should make an appeal to the king, putting the matter in a proper' light and, get'.hirn to alter the decree.•This the attendant did and is sent back with Esther's reply:• It is a very simple, matter to tell `her to appear""`•before the king but she :reminds Mordecaiof the penalty that' she might. have to pay forappearing uncalled in the inner e'ourt. She puts it very plainly, "All the icing's servants and the people of the .lciiig's provinces, do know, that whosoever, whether man or woman,: shall come unto the king into••the in- ner court, who is not called, there is one law of his to put him ,to death except -such to whom the, king •shale hold out the golden sceptre, that he may live; but I have not been called, tri come in unto the king these thirty days." Verse 13—Esther's messages to Mordecai were given as commands and now .we see how his reply takes on a similar tone. She must, make• this cause her own. -ler living hs the palaee and wearing a crown can not revoke the decree on her behalf— she is a'5ewess. Verse , s4—The ' Jews here God's chosen people and He will not desert thein, • so Mordecai 'tells' Esther if„ she plays the cowards part, then . there will be spine other,way of escape, but she will "reap the fruit of . her own sowing, and she,.canno# suffer alone, for no one, ever. does. "Thott and thy father's 'house' shall be destroyed.:wheli tine rest :o1 the familia .'ef the Jews are preserved." Having stirred bet: spirit by;these harsh sayings, rte adds this healing balm, „And who knoweth whether 'thou- are come to the king- dom for such ;a "titt'ie'as this?"

Such gracious words would not be likely to fall from the lips of one angry at having been approached unheralded. He, who had divorced. Vashti for not coming when called, could also punish Esther for corning uncalled. God had, however, pre- pared the way for her and she is now on pleading ground for he says,' "What is thy petition and' what is thy request? It shall-be•given these to the half of the kingdom.' She showed her wisdom by merely paving the way for lier great :request, by inviting him and Haman to a banquet. She hoped at • the banquet to have a more favorable' opportunity of presenting her petition, From, this narrative'many. lessons , for present day living can be gathered such as: (I)., No one, who receives promo- tion shall cease to take an interest in friends of former, days, nor when need arises, fail to show that interest,; (2) When the way way is dark and. the outcome uncertain communion with God by prayer and fasting, •will bring t q Cart•r6htpy+. lsittaii Ybttira. d5 I/ft.

The other picture is is of a hut in the hot country of West • Africa. ' The walls' are of Ruud, and in it sits the only white person for many .miles. The person is a brown: woman, once the ,mission girl of Dundee, and on her wall hangs the picture of a man,l his wife and .children, He is the lad who threatened her life in the long ago and, who on getting well settled; had sent her the pictureas a memen- to of the street scene that had been the turning point in his life.
