Lesson Passage—Genesis 25:27-34 (Temperance Lessen).""*• Golden Text -1 Corinthians 9:25. Lord's providence in after life, to the example and instractio'n of the pat- riaroh.'—(From Dr. Kilto''s 'Bible Series) . As they grew up,. the difference of• character was shown in their pursuits. The peaceful occupations and inter- ests of •pastoral life, which suited well the quiet temper of Jacob, became 'hateful to his more active bro-ther, so he became a hunter thereby securing the bodily •exereise which his strong and active frame des 'aided. This man, returning one day unsuc- oessful, weary and famishing from his ,.hunting, saw• Jacob -preparing a most savoury mess of red -looking pottage. It was: made of those red lentiles which, , at the present da.y, forth a dish highly relished in Syria and in Egypt. Ravenously hungry Esau cried, "Give some of that red pottage." Then it was that Jac- ob 'made to • him theextraordinary proposal of exchanging the mess 'of pottage with him for his birthright. But he knew the .man—he knew him to be one of those to whom the 'pres - ent is all, and on whom the remote and the ideal make no impression. Esau closed with the proposal, "Be- hold," said he, with a hunter's exag- geration, "behold, I am at the point to tile; and what profit shall this birthright do to me?" Esau lived for the present with little appreciation' of his birthright. He consented; and at Jacob's demand, confirmed the transfer by an oath. Thus Jacob ac- quired a human claim to that which' had been his, by divine right before - his birth. But what was this birthright which Jacob so greatly coveted and which his brother se slightly esteemed -2: Esau gave up (1) the right of priest- hood inherent in the eldest line of the patriarch's family; (2) the promise of the -inheritance of the °Ely Land; (3) the -promise that in his -race anti In this lesson we read a bit of in- tiimerte•family history—father, mother and two sons who were twins—Esau and Jacob. It was disclosed to the Mother before the birth of the chil- dren that the elder should serve the younger. This was, in all probability the source of the special regard in which ,she always held that younger son, while the feelings of the father inclined as strongly to his first-iborn. Side by side the boys grew up, de- veloping each along his own special bent. Esau became a mean of strong physical nature, swift of impulse and reckless of consequences. Jacob, on the other hand, was amore quiet, snore self -restrained. There was a good -deal of the underhanded and eehem= ing nature about him. "They both enjoyed the training that comes from a goodly grandfather such as Abram was who lived some seventeen years after 'the birth of Isaac's. sons.

'Man's first sin was the despising of his birthright. The fru-t of the tree was Eve's 'mess of pot- tage; the friendship the Fatherhood, of God, was the birthright which she despised. What is a birthright? Briefly, it is that which combines high honor with sacred duty; it confers dignity and power, but it demands self abnegation and unselfish work; When. "we shrink from the pain and sacrifice which are ever found in the path of duty we are despising our birthright.

'Gro'ves could get no answer and at 11.40 the distant ship seemed' to stop and her dealt lights to go out. Groves naturally assumed that the ship had, like the Californian, stopped on ac- count of the ice and her passengers had gope to bed. The captain of the Californian, who had come up op the bridge, knew from his wire- less operator that the., Titanic was somewhere in the neighborhood, but still did not associate the. unidenti-• fled ship with the Titanic. Indeeele be expressed some doubt that she was a passenger ship. Meanwhile Evans had gone ,.to bed at 11.30 and there did not seelitt to be any urgent necessity to awaken the tiredShortlyouth to, make further enquiry. after midnight 'Groves was relieved by 'Second Officer Stone to whom be pointed out the strange ship, but t never entered his head that she was the Titanic. Yet, Groves was not quite easy in his mind, and before, he turned in to rest he went to the cabin where Evans lay asleep and awaken• ed him enough to ask him what ship3 he had been in touch with. "Only the Titanic," +murmured the half-conscious Evans, who turned over and went to sleep again. . Groves, unwilling to bother the wearied operator, did not press the matter further, though be•• fore he left .Evans' cabin he actually put Evans' headgear to his own ears, heard nothing, put them down 'and went to bed. Up on, the bridge of the Californian Stone and an apprentice were' on watch, and as their ship swung slow- ly to•'and fro they obseitved the dis- tant vessel—one masthead light, a red sidelight, and two or three indis- tinct lights on the deck. At ten min- utes past one they noticed five white flashes at. intervals of. "about three minutes, and Stone accordingly re- ported them to the captain, who ask- ed Stone if they were the company's signals. Stone_. did not recognize them as such but tried vainly to get into communication with the strange ship through the Morse signal lamp. None of them thought of awakening Evans from his peaceful slumbers because there did not seem to be any serious emergency: the only ship near them then of which they 'were •cog- nizant was the Titanic, and the ship they were looking at certainly could not be the Titanic because, first of all she was apparently far too small, and secondly; rbecau(se the - Titanic was the much advertised "unsinkable" ship and would not be sending up dis- tress rockets. At 1.40 three more rockets were seen and Second Officer Stone, who by this time was becom- ing uneasy, sent the apprentice to report to the captain. The lights of the strange ship were not normal ,and were moving queerly. Soon the lights began to disappear, and the puzzled observers on the bridge of the Cali- fornian reached the conclusion that the ship was steaming away from them toiivard the south-west, and at two -twenty 'the lights entirely disap- peared. The Tianic had gone to the, bottom of the Atlantic before their unsuspecting eyes. 'It developed subsequently at the enquiry in Liverpool that - whilst the officers of the Californian`were try- ing to signal by Morse lamp to the Titanic, the ..officers of the doomed ship could plainly see„the masthead lights and the red and . green side- lights of the Californian and tried to signal her by Morse lamp_ also, but for ,some unknown reason neither ship 'could distinguish the latinp flashes of the ' other. Ten little minutes between the time that an exhausted wireless operator took off his head "phones-tp •go to bed, and the moment that the Titanic struck the iceberg; the curt order of Phil • lips to Evans to "keep out; don't in- terrupt me"; the vain effort of Groves to listen in through Evans' head 'phones; the failure of the Morse lamp signals to carry across the°eight or ten miles between the two ships —was there ever a more cruel bit of jesting on the part of Fate? had no copy of his addresses. But Father Bumke told him to make hirk- self comfortable in a chair and then .and there 'delivered the sermon to him, or one as nearly like it as he could contrive, thus saving the report- e'r's'job. We do 'not know whether Kit 'could have (become an orator, but we know she would have made a great actress. We can remember t h e dramatic charm with which she could invest the comimonest story and the kind of enchantment she could dis- till in„ a room ••-..of friends when relating some of her own moving ex- periences. . A curious honor came to her un- asked at the time of the Diamond Jubilee in London in 1887. She rode in the -great procession beside Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Lady Laurier net being able to 'face the fatiguing trip, and the gallant Prime Minister o oosm,g tial repre- Schoo1 Fairs are being continued throughout Ontario by the Ontario Department of.

When -Kit Conducted The Woman's Kingdom. -It is considered sound journalistic practice to mention names in any news story or article, they being as essential in this respect as dialogue is to a novel. Nevertheless in what we wrote recently about The' (Mail and Empire's sixtieth birthday, we mentioned no names, .that we •, can remember, except those of the various proprietors. We .propose now to re- pair that omission by mentioning a name which may Ibe unknown to the present -generation of readers, but. was' one of the most significant nev- ertheless in the paver's history. Kit. That is' the name. No writer who ever served this paper was more bril- liant. None, we believe; ever had such a personal following. There were thousands who opened the Sat- urday paper. •first at her department, whichwhich. was the Woman's Kingdlom, though she had probably as many men as rvvomen readers. Her fame was national, perhaps international • for we ;believe she was the cleverest woman employed on any paper on the American continent when she -was at her best. We ..de not suppose she was ever paid timbre than $20 a week. When she died in: Hamilton. o - four people from Toronto, at graveside. raveside. It must have Seen seine time in the early nineties that she' came to Toronto from Ireland and -it was • the late E. E. 'Sheppard who first en- couraged her to seek a living by her pen, economic necessity, having made it necessary .that this highly culti- vated and.widely travelled young wo- man, now alone in the world, should become self-supporting. So she came to this paper and established "herr woman's 'page, . Its feature: soon became her correspondence column, and she had a tremendous fan mail long before the expression was coin- ed. We think it a,safe ,generalization to say that the more intelligently a department is conducted the fewer will be the letters received. For'in- stance, we have no doubt that Reidy Vallee received a hundred times as many letters as John Galsworthy in the course of the year. But in the case of Kit an exception • would have to be media, She attracted some very clever correspondents, and this stimu- lated her own cleverness and she could answer a personal inquiry in a way not only satisfying to the cor- respondent but delightful as well to all her other readers. She made a kind' of family of her department and there is no question whatever that, her department was the most distinc- tive on the paper, 'perhaps the most widely read in Canadian journalism. "Underlying Kit's sucteess was her warm heartedness. She could write on occasion (with Irish fire, but gen- erally it was the Irish kindliness and• understanding that shone through 'wt her omds. ,She had°'known a good deal of life for a woman so young, and at the period when we knew herhad been twice married, unhappily In the end as Mrs. Coleman, the of a stalwart' young _doctor, she found the peace of that home life which had been denied her in her years of activity. It will perhaps surprise any of Kit's old friends who read these lilies «to know that she was a Roe Tian Catholic. 'Her maternal uncle turas the Rely. Tom Burke of Dublin, 'a member of the DlFtninican Order. He was a noted wit, mimic and .orator, 'and came to the United States in the wake of James Anthony Froude who was touring the country giving' a picture' of Irish affairs that roused the venerable p'rie'st to in- dignation. We Mention' an incident about Father Burke because it is what we rmighrt expect of one of Kit's kin.

In these days, when columnists are prone ' to turn 'their- columns. into confession magazines and write about themselves, some of Kit's intimate revelations about her home life, her adored children and her hardly less adored Bedlington terriers, would perhhaps • attract little attention, but in the era of a more reticent and formal journalism they were almost ell och-marking , and gave her early, distinction. We do not know how Kit stories and comments would read to -day; we can speak only of the impressions they made thirty years ago, when we recall one of the most vivid and charming women *ith whom we ever came in contact. Ten Fateful Minutes; : A .Titanic. Sidelight Twenty years ago, at 11.40 on a quietSunday night, the Titanic rac- ing for New York throughthe ice - fields of the North Atlantic, was slic- ed open by a submerged ledge of ice for 300 feetI below her water -line and sank two hours and a half later with a loss of 1,500 lives out of Snore than 2,200 souls aboard. So slight was the shock of impact that little attention was at first paid by the of- ficers to the incident. And by one of the, grimmest ironies of Fate ever recorded in the history of the tragic,' dramas of the sea the one man who might • have prevented ' this fearful, loss of hutnan life lay innocently a- sleep in his berth on board the Cali- fornian, a 6,000 -ton ship whitb lay hove to in the ice -field only eight' or ten miles distant from the Titanic. This man was the sole wireless oper- ator of the- Californian, a young fel- low named ' Evans, who had indeed actually half an hour before tried to warn the Titanic of danger but had been curtly told net to interrupt. Evans, Who had beer:L an duty since seven in the morning, went to bed completely tired out ten fateful ¢min- utes before ' the Titanic grazed the iceberg. Late in the afternoon of April 12, 1912, the Californian found herself in the vicinity of ice and sent out a general warning. I.t was picked up by the Titanic, which nevertheless continued to travel along ' at 21 knots in order to maintain her .schedule time. At 10.30 the Cali- fornian stopped altogether because the ice -+field extended- across the western horizon ahead of her. At 11 o'clock she saw light approaching her on her starboard quarter, but', her officers . did not identify the on- coming ship as the Titanic, because her lights were not such as might be expected 'from so huge a tvessel, and the angle at which she was ap- roaching, also made her appear much smaller. Just then Evans, the Cali- fornian wireless man, got into touch with the Titanic, but by su- preme ill -luck, no conversation be- tween. them took place, except an abrupt request from ,Phillips, the senior wireless operator of the Titanic, to Evans to 'keep, out 'and refrain frdm "jamming" the com- munications he himself was then ex- changing with 'Cape Race. Had Phil- lips only allowed Evans a nlinute or two of conversation he would have learned the exact location of the Californian and the ice condi- tions. Third Officer Groves was- on watch on the !bridge of the Cali- fornian and saw the strange ship ten or twelve miles off. He report- ed her to the captain, who told him Miss JessieMarie De Roth makes her delicious Awake Appetites? Let those lazy good for no nourish- ment appetites be gone. This is Spring!

If you have the faintest notion that you are losing' your appetite, take these steps of prevention, immediate ly. Breathe deeply of the good fresh air and exercise in the -open if pos- sible. Take out the golf sticks; put on your 'walking shoes or grasp a spade and do things to the garden. Next look to your diet.
