1, A CEatTAIN 140et MAN, 12; 18-21.
V: 18, This story ie. not so much a
parable as an illtistration, but an i1-
lustration of what? There are two
anorals which might be drawn from
it, and it is not clear which is prim-
arily intended. First, the story illus-
trates the extreme uneertainty of hu-
ntae life; man who "knows not what
a c;•ay ,tnay -bring forth" is alevays
awaking 'pians for. the future; indeed
some men so "live in the future" ae
we say, that they 'never enjoy. today.
Let us make the most and make the
best of life :while we have it, for we
do not know how long it will be ours
But while this might be the chief
meaning• of the story it is nut prob-
ably so. Rather, it seems we • are
given a picture of an.entirely selfish
and unspiritually Minded man. He
has put together enough wealth to
last his own life -time, and that is all
ire cures about.. For the future he
intent's to "have a, good time." His
-idea of a, good time is a life of eating,
drinking and merry -making. His ideal
of lite. therefore, is that of ane long
kasy-, unadventurous and selfish boli -
day. He had found no happiness in
his wok -as a .piece of human service;
his work was a bore, and his life be-
gins where his work ended. It has
often been noted, in modern times,
that men who snake money very
aluickly and then retire to enjoy them-
selves, rarely live to a full age. A
rife that has no real, unselfish interest
to feel -: is apt to flicker. out. Let a
man, then, find hietrue life and hap-
piness in faithfully and hopefully per-
forming each day's task as it comes.
. 1.J. "Noor" does not mean here the
higher and spiritual part of our na-
ture. but rather the "self." •
V. 20. The man has had no real love
:for anybody in his heart. The wealth
that he has so laboriously accumula. .
ed. is useless to him, and so far as he
is concerned it all goes for
nothing.
.
II. WATCHFULNESS, 12: 41-46.
The subject of this parable as of
that which precedes it is "watchful-.
flees.' as a duty. Peter here asks
whether the duty devolves upon every-
. body or only upon the disciples. The
-answer is that it devolves in a special
way upon the disciples, for they are
"stewards of the mysteries of God,"
and .it is their task to- "feed my
,sheep." It seems that the Church >t
1,°a ter y ears understood ; this aarable..
1 fo'iti ply to"niiiYiatexs and churc'fi' offi-
,rials. As the expectation of the im-
mediate second coming of Christ be-
gan to lade away, and he seemed to
"delay" (v. 45), there was a tendency'
for the church leaders both to grow
lazy and self-indulgent, and also to
"lord :t over" their congregations.
'The ramble is used as a warring
theist.
"Temperance is not confined to the
use c r non-use of ardent spirits. It
.4eperete in every sphere of life. The
•lav i'l ng upon self of the gifts of
•C,eel is intemneranee of the highest
ursler. Therefore let us nob be drunk
with "clods, wherein is excess, but
strive- to be filled with the Spirit."

(From Poetry.)

More musical than the

\VI:n we speak of the fluty of

ing o•e' u.atchfu'ness against tempta- 1
tion; that is not at all the meaning;
here. dere is a watchtulness for "the
comirer cf the Sou of Men." What
are ea7 to understand by this? Th.

presets grave perplexity to many
Christian hearts. It is an essential
part of the Christian hope that the
kingdom of God will aurey come. The
day and the hour are known to Gad
alone:; but it is far from clear whether
the old expectation of a physical re-
turn of Jesus to this earth on the
clouds of heaven is what Jesus really
meant. It is clearly suggested in the
Gospel cf John that the coming of the
Spirit :•i the second coming of Christ
(John 11: 18), and this may be near-

A Prayer
(The following is to be found in
Chester Cathedral).
Give me a good digestion, Lord,
And also something to digest;
Give me a healthy body, Lord,
And sense to keep it at its best.
Give me a healthy mind, good Lord,
To keep the pure and good in ,sight,
Which seeing sin, is not appalled,
But finds the way to set it right.
Give me a mind that is not bored,
That does not whimper, whine or
sigh;
Don't let the worry overmuch,
About that fussy thing called "I.”
Give me a sense of humor, Lord,
dive me the grace to see a joke,
To get some happiness in life
And pass it on to other folk.
Windows
Very often do we not find that
houses express the personalities of
the peopl: living within its walls?
This question can best be answered
by asking another. Did you ever no-
tice thedifferent. look a house puts
on when another owner or tenant
dwells within? Perhaps you have had
occasions to go back toyour old home
after a long absence. The house is
occupied by strangers and as you look
over the old familiar rooms somehow
they are familiar no longer. It seems
so different one might almost think
the plan of the house had been
ch..
Sonteangedtinmes, even though it were our
own loved ho• le, we must admit the
change is for the better. The furni-
ture may be more suited to the differ-
ent rooms, some of which are newly
painted and papered. A window may
be draped in a manner unthought of
byyou and be mach more artistic, so
that thinking magnanimously, we are
glad the old place has blossomed out.
Then again it may be everything has
deteriorated. The walls are smoked
up, the once carefully kept floors are
scratched and dull and the rooms cold
and uninviting.
So each house reflects unconscious-
ly the personalities within. The win
lows smile their welcome or look
clingy and forbidding and it doesn't
Matter if the home is large and com-
modious or small and commonplace,
those windows with curtains plain or
gay and silky, sparkle and shine, tell-
ing of the cheery housewifely care
within or are dull and uninteresting.
Ta ^ivz ,a;e�., t�
And the personalities within `ttiltt�
home mirror from the,human eye the
window of the soul. The cheerful
look expresses the bright personality
within and gives glimpses of thought
and purpose, Character is revealed
and all unconsciously -we tell what we
ax's.

Good. old Mr. San had kept on shining

touched it and said "Good morning"
is really answered her and. Said "Good
morning" by spreading its delicate
wings out an back, out and back, out
and back, slowly and gracefully. All
at once it fluttered its wings and flew

cats, or "peep, peep," like the chicks
or ",Bow -wow" like Rover, or "I'd like
some breakfast, Mamma, please," like
little girls, and boys can.
However, Mamnia Lady was sure it
was asking for some breakfast. She
looked at it very closely, but she could
not see that it had a mouth, itt had
two big eyes alright, but she wondered
how it could eat, what to feed it, for
two long days since she found it was
a long time, and it didn't have tile .yet
low of the egg in its tummy, like the
wee chicks had at first, either.
Then Mamma Lady thought she of-
ten used to see these dear little but-
terflies in the summer on lovely flow-
ers that have honey away inside -the
blossom, but she never noticed how
they got the honey out. Do yon think,
perhaps, if it liked honey it would like
sugar? Well, Mamma Lady got a
Pinch of sugar and put a drop of water
on it in a saucer on the window, then
gently she lifted the butterfly off her
shoulder, when it had

and thele she watched to see what it
would do. I know you can never guess
how it ate the sugared water. But it
did drink it and it drank for a long

that ctrl on the butterflies, but she
didn't know what it was for. Now as
soon as it saw the water and sugar
that little curl unfolded long and
straight. It felt around for awhile
with the point anrt then it dipped it
right into the middle of the sugar and
water and kept it there for a long
time. Do you know what it was do-
ing? It was sucking it up just like
you do when you have au ice-cream
soda and you drink up that good
creamy juice through the straw. Af-
ter it was through eating it grew
pretty lively and started whirring its
wings. Do you know what that is like?
It means it stands stili but makes its

them. I wonder what it did that for-,
