Wist ye not that 1 rnust be about my Fath- er's business?" Jesus here reminded them he had a higher Father than. an earthly par- ent, and though eighteen years elapsed before he entered on „his public miniat- ery, he here gave them a glimpse of the knowledge that was dawning upon his own midd of the great business for which he came into the world. This is the first recorded utterance of Jeses—an expression of consciousness of Divine sonship—"My Father's busi- ness." "Understood not the saying"— 11 Mary, the author el the .Magnificat, !, that glorious song in which the glad- ness of her pure septa found expres- s eion,should have grasped the mean- ie_ ing of his saying but, we must re- member, twelve years had elapsed during which familycares; and thepro phesy concerning her son had indeed been hidden in her heart and nothing until now had occurred to bring it into . ."He was subject unto them." The obedience of a child to his parents 3, was the chief requisite in aejewish home.

Golden Text—Matt ' New Testament history tells' us very little about the life df Mary, the moth- er of our Lord. It is Nazareth and that her parents were Joachim. and Anna. Only one member of her im mediate family is referred to in the New Testement--t sister • who was probably Salome, wife of Zebedee and mother of James and John. Refer- ence is made to her betrothal to Jo- seph, the visit of the angel Gabriel and her later visit to her kinswoman; Elizabeth Then follows.the birth of the Messiath, the visit of the shep- herds a.nd wise men, the bringing of hurl into the temple at Jerusalem t present • him to the Lord and th flight into and return from Egypt. I was -in connection with these event that any prominence was given to th life of Mary, previous to this lesso in Luke 2:41-52. In the eth, chapter of Deuteronom is recorded an address delivered b Moses to the children of Israel befor they passed over jarden into the Pron ised Land, He told them. to hearke unto the statutes a.nd judgenient which he had taught them "as th Lord My God commanded' me." H said to them: "Only take heed to thy self, and keep thy soul diligently, les thou forget the ehings which thin eyes have seen and lest they depar from thy heart all the days of thy life but teach them thy Sons, and thy sons sons! (Verse 9). In today's lesson centuries later, one of these statutes of being spoken of as being observed how his parents went to jerusalum every.year at the feast of the passovei And when lie was tw,c1-ve yea.rs old they weet up to Jerusalem after the custom of .the feast" (verses gene). In the reth chapter of Deuteronomy there is a full account of the reason for the observatice of the feast of the passover, and of the manner of its observance. At twelve years of age every Jewish male child became "a son of the law" and was permitted to take part in the celebration of the sa- cred festivals. "Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord in the place which he 'shall choose" (Deut. x6-16). "And when he was twelve years, old," Jesus .had come, as we would ay, to that period of life when a child takes upon himself . the vows hat his parents made for him in bap - ism. We see how it affected him. 'He did not know when it was ovea4 Crowds streamed from the building, ut the boy remained. His parents eft; but the boy remained. The in- ner circle of the doctors began their private business; but the boy remain- ed. His mother thought he was by her side; but she had left him behind e -behind with God." (George Math- eson, D.

And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the Lord; seven days ye inust eat un leavened bread, (Lev. 23 ee.6), 'To Jerusalem"—about seventy miles distant from Nazareth,sell the feasts of the Jews were held there. The distance being great they travel- led in bands—kinsfolk and acquain- ances journeying together. Find- ig they had become separated from their son, they went fr'oni one' greup, to another, until satisfied he was not of the company, they retraced their steps.. (Verse e 44.4e).

Suspended in the air before the 'class was a huge bar of iron, absolutely motionless. To show the power of many small im- pacts uporx an inert mass, the profess- or began throwing tiny paper pellets One after the other they struck the bar without effect; but at last, after patient perseverance, the huge mass under the steady impact began to sway to and fro, amidst the cheers of the students. For long years the Christian. Literature Societe. has pre- pared the paper pellets that have made Ill their impact upon China's age-ldng in- ertia; and at last there have beerevis- ible signs of movement.
