The Herald, 1910-07-08, Page 3sseeragtugemstazzon Stipday c1 ooLe LESSON ii. -JULY 10, 1910. Roview-Road Matt. 10: 6-15. Summary -Lesson I. Topic: Expres- sions of faith. I'iace: Capernaum. The exhibitions of Christ's power as narrat- ed in this lesson, are marvellous. De ad- mire the strong faith of the ruler who . said to Jesus, "My daughter is even now dead; but come and lay thy hand upon hen', and she shall live." The child was restored to life. .A. woman afflicted for twelve years, showed her faith and persistency by pressing through the crowd to touch the hem of Christ's gar- ment. II. Topic: The first twelve missionar- ies.' Place: Some village in Galilee. Je- sesus sent out the twelve apostles upon their first mission,, having given them powe to cast out evil spirits, to heal dis- eases and to raise the dead. III. Topic: Jesus' answer to John's question. Place: At some point in Gali- lee, possibly near Neale John the Bap- tist had been in prison for several months, and for his own reassurance or that of his disciples, he sent two of his followers to Jesus with an inquiry, as to whether he was really the Messiah. Jesus performed many miracles before them. and sent them to John to tell him what they had seen. IV. Topic: Man's responsibility and privilege. Place: In Galilee. In pro- nouncing woes upon Chorazin, Bethsaida and Capernaum, Jesus declared the great truth that moral responsibility is in proportion to the degree of knowledge that,,, one has. V. Topic: Opposition to Christ. Place: Galiliee, in and near Capernaum. After the Pharisees had criticised the disciples of Jesus for picking and eating the grain on the Sabbath, he took occasion to de- fend works of necessity on that day and to declare that Christ is Lord of the Sabbath. The healing of the man with the withered hand on the Sabbath called forth further accusation from his ene- mies. VI. Topic: A universal census. Place: Written at Jerusalem. The writer of the verses composing the temperance les- son portrayed many of the accompani- ments and effects of indulgence in strong drink. Weakness, sickness, woe and death are in the intoxicating cup. The mind becomes disordered, the ani- mal nature gains the ascendency and the habit becomes well-nigh overmaster - VII. Topic: The Pharisees contempt of Christ. Place: Capernaum: The hatred toward Jesus was increasing and found expression at every opportunity. The Pharisees acknowledged the miracles wrought by him, but attributed them to Satanic power. Jesus' answer to their ,charge was irrefutable. The Pharisees were guilty of blasphemy because they attributed. to Satan that which, was ,rhee • work of God. VIII. Topic: Lives blighted by . sin. Place: Jesus and his disciples were in Galiliee. John was in prison at 11iaeher- us. Herod, upon hearing of the mira- )cies of Jesus declared that John the Baptist, whom he had beheaded, had ris- en from the dead. Herod's sensuality with that of Herodias had brought forth stern rebuke from John, who was for that rebuke imprisoned and later be- headed. IX. Topic: Bread in the desert. Place: Near Bethsaida and in Decapolis. The lesson comprises two miracles of feeding the multitudes, the five thousand near Bethsaida and the four thousand in De- eapolis. Jesus healed many who calve to him. X. Topic.: Jesus amid the storm. Place: On the Sea of Galilee. Jesus alone at prayer is an example for us; there is safety in the storm with Jesus present; faith fails when one begins to look at the difficulties rather than to Christ. XL Topic: A mother's prayer. Place: Borders of Phoenicia. A woman of Phoe- nicia, or Canaan, heard of Jesus and sought his aid in behalf of her dau,ghter. The simplicity and strength of her faith, together with her humility, won Christ's favor. XII. Topic: Pictured truth. Place: Near Capernaum, by the Sea of Galilee. The parable includes a consideration of the sower, the seed, the four hinds of soil and the harvest. The truths of the gospel are sent to all, yet compara- tively few are permanently affected by them. XIII. Topic: True and counterfeit Christians. Place: By the Sea of Gali- lee. The parable declares the existence of a personal enemy of good, the fact that the good and bad are in the world and even in the church, and that they shall at last be perfectly separated. I: Topic: Christ revealed through men. Place: By the Sea of Galilee. The parables of the lesson set forth various features of the kingdom. The mustard seed and the leaven show its growth and spread. The hidden treasure and the iGodly pearl show its great value to the ndividual and the world. The net teaches that not all who apparently ac- eept the gospel are saved. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS. The apostles sent out. Human ageney is employed to spread the blessings of the gospel and to, tercels men. The apos- tles were instructed as to the kind of work they were to do, the places where they were to labor and their support. They were empowered. Through Jesus' power they could "heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out dev- ils (Matt. 10: 8). • . Divine power in e:.ereiso. 1. Power over death. The ruler's daughter was de.nd; but death was powerless in the presence of Christ (Matt.. 0: 25.) 2. Power over disease. The woman who tended. his garment was healed. The blind received their sight (Matt. 9: 80.) The man with the withered hand was healed (Matt. 12: 13.) The blind and ter µnen sAur BUTTER rize `0/ r -the kind that wins cash and medals at the fairs, and brings top prices in the market -is always made with dumb demoniac was healed (Matt. 12: 22.) The lame, the blind, the dumb, the, maimedand many others were made whole (Matt. 15: 30.) The diseased touched the hem of his garment and were healed (Matt. 14: 35, 30.) The de- mon -possessed daughter of the Syrophoe- nician woman was cured (Matt. 15: 28.) 3. Power over the elements of nature, The multitudes were fed (Matt. 14: 21; 15: 38.) Jesus walked on the sea and enabled Peter also to do so (Matt. 14: 25. 29). The power of faith. In the lessons of the quarter there are two remarkable examples of faith. 1,, Jairus, who de- clared eclared to Jesus, "My daughter is even now dead; but come and lay thy ]nand upon her, and she shall live" (Matt. 9: 18.) 2. The Canaanitish woman, who persistently continued her plea until the Master said to her. "0 woman, great is thy faith; be it unto thee even as thou wait . ,,c a.tt:+'I3a OW:IRi'e faith 'Itel es no account of hindrances, for faith looks to God wind not to the difficulty of the work to be wrought. Faith does not watch circumstances and symptoms. Faith meets objections and masters them. Invitation extended. The invitation is extended to those who are in the great- est need of the benefits offered. Often among men it is the case that Invita- tions are extended to those who are the least in need of help. The "weary" and the "heavy laden" are objects of pity for they feel the weight and oppression of sin. John the Baptist. He was remarkable in his faith, humility, simplicity of life, conrage and devotion. His message to Jesus did not express doubt on his own part' of the Messiahship of Jesus. His disciples needed to be reassured and the interview with Jesus had that effect, as well as to give encouragement to suc- ceeding generations. The death of John •the Baptist impresses us with the thought of. the depravity of the human heart and its vindictiveness. -Ulnen once a person breaks away from the path of uprightness to follow Satan it is proba- ble that the end Evill be far more hurl- bac than was thought possible. Herod and Herodias both hurried toward ruin and in their frenzy • aer'omplished the death of the grpetest prophet of the world up to the time in which he lived. Personal ressponsibility. Lesuns 0, 12 and 13 set forth' !:'e fact that our pre- sent condition and future happiness de- pend upon the decisions we are not mak- ing.

Mose of the countries of Europe have not yet completed their estimates of the wheat crop of 1010.owever, a c;t,blc- grani has just been. received from the In- ternational Institute of Agriculture, giv- ing the reports for Hungary and Italy. In Hungary, the estimated yield of wheat for 1010 is 357:142,704 bushels, compared with 125,303,287 bnshels in 1009 and a ten year average of 102,274,- 491 bushels. In Italy 11,007.000 acres are sown to wheat this year, compared with a ten- year average of 32,537,331 acres. 4 good hearer is better than a good speaker. "A lady came into my store lately and said : "`I have been using a New Perfection Oil Coolo-Stove all winter in my apartment. I want one now for my summer home. I thinlc these oil stoves are wonderful. If only women knew what a comfort they are, they would all have one. I spoke about my stove to a lot of my friends, and they were aston- ished. They thought that there was smell and smoke from an oil stove, and that it heated aroonn just like any other stove. I told them of my experience, and one after another they got one, and now, not one of them would give hers up for five times its cost.'" The lady who said this had thought an oil stove was all right for quickly heating milk for a baby, or boiling a kettle of water, or to make coffee quickly in the morning, but she never dreamed of using it for difficult or heavy cooking. Now -she knows. Do you really appreciate what a New Perfection OH Cook -Stove means to you ? No more coal to carry, no more coming to the dinner table so tired out that you Can't eat. Just light aPerfection Stove and Immediately the heat from an intense blue flame shoots up to tho bottom of pot, kettle or oven. But the room isn't heated. There is no smoke, no smell, no outside heat, no drudgery in the kitchen where one of these stoves is used. ke Cautionary Note: ,Be sure you t.ct this stove --see that the name -plate reads "New Perfection." It has a Cabinet Top with a shelf for keeping plates and fetid hot, The nickel finish, with the bright blue of the chimneys, makes the stove ornamental and attractive. Made with 1, 2 and $ burners; the 2 and 3 -burner stoves can be had with or without Cabinet. ivory deafer everywhere; if not at yours, write for Descriptive Circular to the nearest agency of the The Queen City 011 Com tnya If -twitted, Toronto. so X •r t't i tfeo'N. ,rt a'a !Mat r LD's. 4044 SOME CONTE ;STS iN MILK YIELDS Some records are always stimulating. Some of the records from members of the cow testing assoeiations for May are itelleative of good cows well kept end well fed; hi a word, decidedly profitable. eows. For instance, one dairyman in Western Ontario owning a herd of 02 cows has the inspiring record of 1127 lbs. of milk per cow, during the month, A{gin, in six associations in Peterboro' and Oxford counties the average yield of 380 cows was 1055 lbs. of milk and 34.3 alis. fa`. The -reverse of the ph ture is not so rosy, indicating the need of mere and better cows. Several tu:snei:itions ' have an average of under 700 lbs. of milk and 20 lbs..of fat. A group of 73 cows at one creamery gave only 004 lbs. of milk and 21.S lbs. fat in -May. Think of the difference, the average afield noted above is seventy per cent. better. As an instanee of what is being done by the selected tanimal, the record of one • of the meet famous cows to-d':y fortes a. wonderful contrast. She is cred- ited with 120 lbc. fat in thirty days. This cow, it is said, was Tricked up from a neighbor who did not keep records and therefore was unaware of her phenome- nal value. Who will be the next man to di'eovee another Fitch diamond in the rough? Individual cow records alone can show where such jewels exist.

(Christian Guardian.) Canada has a population of probably a little less than 8,000.000, and we have hundreds of millions of acres of agri- cultural land yet untwoiked. We have r)bout 25.000,000 head of poultry in Can- ada, and yet, last year, we imported 583,270 dozen more eggs than we export- ed. We had to bring eggs from the United States and llu•e;,ia, and even from China and Japan, in order to feed our people. The Farmer's Advocate reck- ons that we ought to have at least 60,- 000,000 head of poultry in Canada, which, on the eontiervativr' leads of $l profit for each hen per annum, would mean al net profit to the owners of at least 900,000,000. One difficulty appears to be that we de not get e-;nugh egg, from the hone we have. If we have 22.000,000 hens, and kelt hen laid 130 eggs a year, that would give up 3,300.000,000 eggs, or more then 400 per annum for every man, woman and child in Canada. This would mean more than one egg a day for every day in the rear. But it does not seem in the Ieast probable that we eon- sume 50 many, and the c'onelusion toilet be that our hens are not doing their duty.
