LESSON; X I I,-DEC. .19, 1809.
Review. -Read Rom. I: 1-7, 13-16.
14u>nmary.-Lesson 1. 'Tolaic; 'Paul at
Jelllisalem. As aoijn as Paul reached Je-
rusalem he conferred with the eiders. of
the church; he .titers entered into the
ten.ple and purified himself, according
to the ceremonial law. ..Jews from Ephe-
sus naw him in the women's court. with
strangers and supposed 'he had taken a,
Gentile into the temple and thus pollut-
ed it; they stirred up a mob against
Paul for the purpose of taking his life;
Paul was rescued by .Roman soldiers
and afterward while standing on the
stairs delivered an address to the as-
•sembled throng, .
if. Topic: Paul before the Sanhedrin.
Place: Caesarea. A.t the close of the
address delivered on the stairs the mob
was again stirred against Paul; Lysias,
the Roman captain, was about to
scourge him; when he was
that Paul
was a Roman citizen; after this a con-
spiracy waa!made against Paul by the
Jews, forty of them binding themselves
together under a curse, that they would
neither eat nor drink until. they had
killed him; the plot was. discovered, and
Lysias sent Paul with a strong military
escort to Caesarea.
111. Topic: Paul's trial before Felix.
Place: Caesarea. Jews came from Jeru-
salem and accused P.u1; the charges
were sedition, heresy, sacrilege; Paul's
defense was clear and unanswerable;
their charges could not be proved; Paul
confessed that he was a Christian; after
certain days Paul spoke before Felix and
his wife, Drusilla; reasoned of righteous-
ness, temperaneo, and judgment to come.
Felix trembled; hoped that money
would be given him that he might re-
lease Paul.
TV. Topic: Paul, a prisoner, preach-
ing. Place: Caesarea. After Paul had
been in 'prison two years he was called
before, Festus, the new governor of Ju-
dea, and King Agrippa to make his de-
fense; Paul had apealed to Rome, and
Festus desired to frame a charge
against him; Paul's address deeply im-
presed Festus and Agrippa, and they
decided that if he had not appealed to
Borne, he might have been released; but
his appeal veils allowed to stand, and ar-
rangements were made to send him to
the imperial city.
V. Topic: Paul embarked for Rome.
Place: The Mediterranean Sea, between
Caesarea and Malta. They landed. at
Fair Havens on the island of Crete dur-
ing the stormy season; Paul advised
them to winter hese, but Julius, the cen-
turion, who had charge, decided to sail
for Phenice, a more commodious port of
Crete; on the way a hurricane
'VI. Topic: Paul shipwrecked at lidelx
ta. The sailors despaired of their livee;
Paul encouraged them; they aband;ined
the ship and escape o Malta; Pat;:i per -
•Pt the Isla d and
mpala-
VII. Topic: Pau 's Completed journey.
Place: Rome. In the spring Paul and
the others with him were taken to Pu-
teoli, near Naples. ' The apostle then
went to Rome; called the Jews togeth-
er; explained why he was there a pri-
sener, and preached Christ.
VIII. Topic: Paul's retrospect. Place:
Written in Macedonia. Paul tells of his
sufferings and trials; tell of his revela-
tions; glories in infirmities that the
power of Christ might rest upon him.
IX. Topic. The gospel exemplified.
Place: Written at Corinth. Paul teaches
self-denial; says we shall all stand brafore
the judgment seat of Christ; tht we
should not cause any one to stumble;
we are told that "title kingdom of Cod
is not meat and drink, but righteousness,
'and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost";
we are to follow after peace and seek to
edify others.
X. Topic: True benevolence. Place:
Written in Maoedionia. Paul uregs liber.
ality; tells ne Christ becaan epoor for our
sakes; that we should give willingly; we
should give according to our means; ouT
gifts are accepted by oGd when given as
we are able.
XL Topic: Paul's message to Timothy.
Place: Written art Rome. Paul charged
Timothy tobe faithful as a ministee anal
to preach the word; called attention to
the fact that the 'tisne would come .when
sound doctrine would not he endured;
Timothy waus told to watch,.endure and
labor; Paul declared he was ready to
die card that the time of his departure
was near at hand; said there was laid
up for hien a crown of righteousness: a
crown, is promised to all who love
ghrist's appearing; Paul expresses his
trust in the Lord to deliver from evil'.
LA GRIPPE
Arrested, and Consumption Cured
Mr. G. D. Colwell, of Wallcerville, Ont,
was stricken down with La Grippe in 1906
and it left him in very bad condition. He
says: I was allrun down and bordering on
Consumption. I could notslecp atnights,
had awful sweats, and coughed nearly the
whole time. This is how 1 was when I
began to take Psychine, in a low nervous
state; but from the first bottle I began to
improve., It did marvels forme and brought..•
me back to health in no time, making a new
man of me. It fortifies the body against
the attacks of La Grippe and is -a sure pre-
ventative. I always take Psychine if I feel
a cola coming on and it puts me right in
no time,"

tensely. His .greetings and farewells
show great warmth and ardor. 2. Ile
was sympathetic. He wept with 'those
that wept and carried She burdens of the
church upon his heart. 3. He was an in-
defatiigable worker. Men do not often
die of overwork. Worry kills more peo-
ple than work. 4. Paul .head a persever-
ing spirit. When his, course of action
was once decided upon, nothing was al-
lowed to hinder him. He overcame diffi.
culties that would have discouraged or-
dinary men, and pressed on to victory.
5. Paul was a man of. prayer. Some of
his best w•ritungs are prayers for the
church. Eph. 3, 14-21; Co. 1, 10.11 are
examples. 6. He was an exceedingly
humble man, putting himself as less than
the least of all saints. 7. He was also
bold and courageous. Whether he was
facing Elyras at Paphos, or the .snobs
at Lystma and Jerusalem, or wild beasts
at Ephesus, or governors and kings at
Caesarea, or the emperor at. Rome, he
was the same undaunted, courageous
man. 8. Paul was resigned to God's
will. Like is Master he could :say, "Not
as I will, but as Thou wilt." Theer was
no controversy between him and God,
but whatever God did was a4 once ac-
knowledged es right. 9. Paul had great
failih in the Lord. God was real to flim.

Poor, foolish Agrippa!
IV. Deliveratfee`from shipwreck (chap.
27). Every Toyage to the heavenly coun-
try has something of hardship and peril.
Often the nun shines and the sapth
winds blow softly. (v. 13), but sometimes
the etorms'come and the winds are con -
tram (vs. 4. 7), or tempestuous (vs. 14,
18, 27). If we would meet life's temp-
ests bravely and land at last and obtain
"an abundant entrance;' (1 Pet. 1, 1.7),
let lis fear.. not (v. 24); ,believe God (v.
25), 'be of good. cheer (vs. 22, 25, 36),
sacrifice the less for the greater (v. 38).
and save others (vs. 43)..',.
V. Deliverance from death (chap. 28.)
Paul was a prisoner in Rome for two
years and was then liberated and went
on. a fourth missionary journey.
VI. Deliverance and a crown (2 Tim,
4. 1-18). "The crown of righteousness"
is for "them that love his appearing,"
but how can they love that which they
know nothing about? Tb' love the -Bible
and to love what t reveals we must•be-
lieve the Bible, read the Bible, study
the Bible, mark the Bible, pray over
the Bible, obey the Bible, then shall
we find all scpxt/eeure profitable along
every. line. The B.hie will indeed prove
a guide, a sword, a light, a mirror, a
laver, a seed, and %re shall be perfect,
thoroughly furnished unto all good
works, and be able to "fight the good
fight of faith": and know that for us is
waiting it crown of righteousness.
Paul's Deliverance.
"Paul's career was evidently guided
,by God. The sustaining power of divine
presence is manifest in all his utter-
ances before his enemies. His bearing is
like that of a. king. After the scene be-
fore the Sanhedrin, Paul's spirit sank
into discouragement and despondency.
Immured ins a Roman barrack, separat-
ed from his friends while protected from
his enemies, it is no wonder that even
his heroic soul felt the shadows resting
heavily. But. the Lord, ever sustaining
and guiding, mercifully vouchsafed it
personal visitation and a revelation of
His will. The true use of religion is
shown us by Saint Paul. It only deserves
the name of a sincere faith when it
urges us to strive daily that we may
become righteous, devout and holy be-
fore God, and free from stain in the
eyes of our fellow -men. Such striving
will make us faithful and fearless, as
was Paul."
I. Deliverance from angry men (chap.
21). "The Jesus of Asia refused to give
careful, candid thought to Paul's teach-
ings, but judged them by their own nar-
row standards. They mingled fact and
falsehood." They saw one thing and
thought anter. They cruelly and mali-
ciously, under the guise of religion,
sought to kill an innocent man, but
God delivered him.
II, Deliverance from conspiracy (chap.
23). Forty men obund to starve or slap
Paul was a formidable adversary. But
God can use one young man, and the
apostle was delivered and sent on his
way rejoicing.
III. Deliverance through obedience
(chap. 26). Paul "not disobedient to the
heavenly vision" (v., 19) is the great
secret, from the human side, of all his
marvelous deliverances. On the other
hand Agrippa was disobedient to the
heavenly vision. He saw the Christ of
"the prophets and Moses."He knew Paul
had spoken the truth. He was concinved
that to be a Christian was right; that
to know and love and serve Christ was
Points tit of notice. -1. Paul had sensible. But he turned away from
wor y
an affectionate nature. He loved in- Christ and is representative and lok-

FARMERS' MARKET.
Bandit's Lawyer Wants His Fee
From Government.
Ottawa, Dec. 13.- Bill Miner, the
famous British Columbia bandit,
whose escape from the New Westmin-
ster penitentiary was so fully discus-
sed at last session of Parliament, is
again the subject of correspondence
in the Justice Department.
W. Norman Bole, K.C., of Van-
couver, who defended Miner at the
time of his trial, recently secured an
order of the Court of British Col-
umbiafor payment to him of money
taken from Miner at the time of his
arrest. This money is claimed in pay-
ment of Mr. Boles legal fees in the
case, amounting to ,$500, and for costs
amounting to $28, but the total
amount of cash taken from Miner was
only $149.10, this sum having been
held ever since in trust by the de-
partment. The rule governing the
case of money taken from a convict
is that it shall be paid over to him
at the time of his release or 40 his
legal heirs or in case of death. Miner
having been e.�,victed for life, the
department doubts if it has right to
hand over the sum to Mr. Bole and
is may therefore remain in the treas-
ury as a souvenir of the departed des-
perado.

of in the sales of Monday and to -day.
The demand, while good, was not quite
