Be likened -"The parable of the ten vir-
gins is based upon the marriage customs
of the East, to which many allusions oc-
cur in Scripturse The essence of the mar-
riage ceremony' consisted in the removal
of the bride from her hone to that of her
future husband. The bridegroom pro-
ceeded, late in the evening, attended by
his friends, or 'groomsmen' (see Judges
xiv, 11; Matt. ix. 15; John iii, 29), to
the bride's dwelling, where she awaited
him, attired in white robes (Rev. xix.
8) embroidered with gold' (Psa. Lev. 13)
and attended by her `bridesmaids' (Psa.
lxv. 14.) The whole company then went
an procession by torchlight to the bride-
groom's house, being joined on the ivay
by parties of invited guests (the virgins
of the parable), all carrying torches or
lamps" --Stock. When the bridegroom's
house was reached those in the proces-
sion entered, including the invited
pests; the door was then shut, and no
one arriving subsequently was permitted
to enter. -Abbott. It is still the custom
in Syria for the marriage procession to
proceed in the night. Ten virgins -Ten

2. Were wise --These left nothing to be
attended to at the last moment; they
were prudent and fully prepared. Fool-
ish -Careless, negligent. "The visible
church of Christ on earth consists of
both true and false, members spiritually
dead and others spiritually alive. The ex-
ternals of Christianity are nothing before
God where the heart is not truly sancti-
fied through the Holy Spirit." 3. '.Cool:
their lamps -We must carefully note
the contrast; In the case of the foolish
the taking of their lamps is everything;
but in the case of the wise it is the
taking of oil in their vessels. The fool-
ish are thus represented as being vain
and thqughtless, looking only at appear-
ances, and only in haste going forth
through excited feelings. -Lange. Took
no oil with them -The oil represents the
grace or.love of God in the heart. These
virgins represent a class of so-called
Christians who make a profession of re-
ligion, but who lack the faith which
worketh by love. 'They had just oil en-
ough to make their lamps burn for the
present, but no cruse or bottle of oil
with them for a recruit, if the bride-
groom tarried. That is, 1. They have no
principle within; they are like the seed
on the stony ground, without root. 2.
They make no provision for what is to
come." Henry.
4. Took oil -They carried a vessel with
oil to pour into the lamp when necessary,
"The decisive test was not the lamp, but
the oil -the Spirit, the spiritual life;"
and yet they must have a lamp to hold
the oil. Let us be careful not to cirs-
pise the forms of religion. "True Christ-
ians unite both external and internal
Christianity." 5. Tarried -The figure is

sleep represents merely the waiting time,
during which time the true Christian
is fully prepared for the coming of the
heavenly Bridegroom at any hour. Those
who are trusting in a form of godliness,

PRACTIOAL APPLICATION
"Behold, the Bridegroom cometh" (v.
6.) The key of our lesson is the coming
of the Bridegroom. The greatest earthly
felicity typifies the greatest heavenly
blessing. Like the Oriental wedding, the
marriage supper (Rev. xix. 9) will be a
time of feasting (John ii, 1-11), rejoicing
(Isa. lxii. 5; Jen xxxiii. 11). and gifts
(Pst. xl.v. 12.) At the wedding will be,
1. "The Bridegroom" (v. 1.) The Be-
loved if "fairer than the children of men"
(Psa. xlv. 2.) They tell ne the Hebrew
reads, "Beautiful, beautiful art thou
above the sons of men." In every virtue,
every grace. the Bridegroom is the chief -
est among ten thousand and the one alto-
gether lovely. William C4. Carr once call-
ed on George Muller and afterward heard
him preach. At the close of the sermon
he took the aged man by the hand, and
said, "I so enjoyed your sermon. I may
never see you here again, but I shall
meet you up yonder." The old man lift-
ed his face, aglow with light from hea-
ven, and said, "I shall see his face, I
shall kiss his feet."
II. The bride. The first verse of our
lesson in the old versions reads, "To meet
the Bridegroom and the bride," and read
this way it perfectly describes an East-
ern wedding. The bride is of divine de-
scent, "born from above" (John iii, 3, 5.)
Adam and Eve, the first bridegroom and
bride (Gen. ii. 18.24, margin), typify
`the great mystery" (Eph. v.22.23.) The
bride is separated to Christ. Her love
is all for the Bridegroom. She has heard
him say, "Let us go forth" (S. of S. vii.
11.) She is "in the world" of sorrow
but not "of the world" of sin. (John xvii.
11, 14-18), because living in the Spirit
and walking in the Spirit "above" the
world's anxieties, pleasures, fears and
frowns (John viii. 23.) Like her Lord,
she has no work of her own (John iv.
34; v. 30; vi. 30), no will of her own. no
wish of her own (Psa. xxxvii. 4.) She
lives to "please him" (John viii. 29; I.
John iii. 22. Her motto is, "For thy plea-
sure" (Rev. iv. 11.) She has -no desire
apart from him. She can say con-
stantly,
"His will is sweetest to me
When it triumphs at my cost."
Sangster was to have wed Miss Fex,
daughter of Joseph Fax, a respected
farmer, living just outside of Brock-
ville. Great preparations had been
glade for the wedding, and an array of
handsome gifts was sent in. The in-
cident has created a flutter of excite-
ment hereabouts. as the whole country-
side received invitations to take part in
the festivities. A number of guests

Europeans have been killed.
The British have bad considerable
trouble lately on account of the men -
nations of a native society called the
"Silent Ones," the business of which is
to incite the nativeieto rebellion. Last
month a British force compelled the
surrender of a rebellious tribe, which
had killed a British commissioner and
had defeated, with heavy loss, a col-
umn that had been sent to punish
them. •
{ The bride is clothed with the sun (Rev.
xii. 1.) Her character is transparent as
light. Her garments are of "linen ....
bright" (Rev. xix. 8, margin.) Not only
fine and clean, but bright, shining, es-
trous, glorious. She has been purified
and made white (Dan. xii. 10.) To be
purifiedis to have sin burned out; to be
made white is to have brightness burned
in. One is purity; the other glory. The
bride is not only justified and sanctified,
but redeemed (I. Cor. i. 30), glorified.
The inner robe spotless; the outer robe
glorious. Water makes linen clean, a
hot iron pressed hard makes it shining.
The bride will be jttstified by grace,
cleansed by blood and purified by trial.

That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you
are confiding your private ills to a woman
-a woman whose experience with wo-
men's diseases covers twenty-five years.
The present Mrs. Pinkham is the
daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for many years under her direction, and since
her decease, her advice has been freely given
to sick women,
Many women suffer in silence and drift along from
bad to worse, knowing full well that they ought to
have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty
impels them to shrink from exposing themselves to the
questions and probably examinations of even their
family physician. It is unnecessary. Without money
or price you can consult a woman whose knowledge
from actual experience is great.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation:
Women suffering from any form of female weak-
ness are invited to promptly communicate with
Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read -and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her private
illness to a woman ; thus has been established
the eternal confidence between Mrs, Pinkharn
and the women of America which has never
been broken, Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from,
it is more than passible that she has /
gained the very knowledge that will help I!
your case. She asks nothing in return
except your good -will, and her advice has
relieved thousands. Surely any woman
ricer or poor, is very foolish if she does
not take advantage of this generous offer
of assistance -Lydia E. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co., Lynn, lelass.
Following we publish two letters
from a woman who accepted this
invitation. Note the result.
First letter.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :-
"For eight years nave suffered something
terrible every month. The pains are ex-
cruciating and I can hardly stand them.
My doctor says I have a severe fetnale
trouble and I must go through an oper-
ation ittI want to get well. I do not want
to submit to it if I can possibly help it.
Please tell me what to do. I hope you can
relieve me." -Mrs. Mary Dimnick 50th
and E. Capitol Sts., Washington, D. 0.
Second letter
Dear Mrs. Pinkham
"After following carefully your advice,
and takingLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, I stn very anxious to send you
my testimonial, that others may know their
value and what you have done for me.
"As you know, I wrote you that my
doctor said .I crust have an operation or I
you my a ailments. its. 1 followed you, I then wrote ouadvice
and am entirely well, t can walk miles
without an ache or a pain and I owe my
life to you and to Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg-
etable Compound. I wish every suffering
woman would read this testimonial and
realise the valtte of writing to yell and
your retnecly,"-Mrs. Mary ilii ick, 59th
and E. Capitol Streets, Washington,
When a medicine has been successful
in restoring to health so many women
whose testimony is so unquestionable,
you cannot well say, without trying it,
"I do not believe it will help ince" I
you are iii, don't hesitate to get a bottle
of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound at once, and write Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, &lass, for special advice --it is free
and always helpful.

13radstreet'a Trade Review.
Montreal -General trade here has tak-
en on a more hopeful tone during the
past week. The wide nature of the busi-
ness done here causes a reflection of con-
ditions in any part of Canada. Business
men who a week ago were inclined to be•
pessimistic in their views are now ex-
pressing brighter opinions regarding com-
ing trade, There is no doubt es to the
satisfactory condition of affairs in On-
tario and the Eact generally. The demand.
for wholesale lines is now good. The dry
goods trade is very active, with values
firm, Canadian cotton mills are very
much behind hand, while deliveries and
trade is inconvenienced in this respect.
