Lesson Passage—Matthew 20:17-28. Golden Text—Matthew 20:28. Jesus had before this occasion told His disciples the plan of life, how it was no game of chance, but a Divine plan. "The very hairs of your head are all numbered; not a sparrow fal- leth to the ground without your Father. There hath no temptation befallen you but such as is common to man. With every temptation God will make a way of escape." Such words as these often fell from the Master's lips. In to -day's lesson he lays bare before them the plan of his own life which is rapidly nearing its close. In what Christ said to His disciples when on the way to Jerusa- lem He took them apart for a little time,a opened up His whole heart to thZm. In what He revealed of God's plan for Him not one thin; fail- ed. The going up. the betrayal, the condemnation, the mocking, scourging, crucifying, rising again—all were. -ipoken of. Before even a hand was laid upon him it had all been enacted in his own mind as he prepared his iisci•ples for what he knew was at hand, and upon which he could dwell because he possessed the peace that passeth all understanding. How did this revelation affect the disciples? They were not capable of grasping it as is seen in the conduct of twJ of them soon after. One thing had Penetrated the brain of John and James, the sons of Salome. She was one of that devoted band of women that was now in his following and ministering to his daily wants. One part of Christ's conversation reached their mind and set them thinking and planning. He said he would rise again on the third day. They nq doubt concluded that his res- urrectiofr"would be his entrance cpo•i His kingdpm, and therefore, they were resol,>ed to make a bid fc,r the best place, nor would they lose it for want of speaking. There was policy in the way they approached Christ with their request. They interested their mother and so it appeared to be her request, and not theirs. They thought her great interest in Jesus' bodily welfare and comfort would not receive a negative reception, and therefore they made her their advo- ^ate. It was an unholy ambition for their real desire was to step up above their brethren. How did their mother behave when she went to ask this great favor? We are told she worshipped Him meaning that she respectfuIIy saluted Him and knelt before him. Upon this Jesus bade her state her request. To sit on the right and left hand of a Prince was a token of confidence, and the highest honor granted to his friends. This she made bold to hope would be conferred on her sons but Jesus told her she didn't know what it was she was really asking for them. He then explained the law of greatness in the divine kingdom. It was meekness and service. He said to them that they did not know the nature of their request or what would be involved in it. They said they were able to follow him through suf- fering and trial to secure the coveted place. Then Jesus assured them that would be their lot and His words were literally fulfilled for James was the first of the disciples to be put to death and John through a long life came to know tribulation and banishment for the testimony of Jesus Christ. When the ten heard of the request they were offended at their ambition, at their desire to be exalted above the rest of them. Jesus then called all the apostles to 'Him and talked to them on this matter. It is as though he said. "You know that such honors are customary among nations. The kings of the earth raise their favor- ites to posts of trust and power. But my kingdom is established in a dif- fei-ent manner. He will be most dis- tinguished that shows most humility. He then pointed them to his own ex- ample saying: "Whosoever will be chief among you let him be your serv- ant. Even as the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ran- som for many." WORLD MISSIONS It was a fine message that Sir Wil- fred Grenfell delivered to a gathering of young men in London recently on the subject of "Modern Adventuring." As every one knows, Sir Wilfred is not only a great adventurer himself, but he is one of the outstanding mis- sionaries of modern days. His 'central message wars that "the world is a field of honor, on which we are placed as knights of God. If we fail to fill our pl9ace there will be a place that is empty." "I did not feel in this way," he added, "until I heard D; L. Moody. What I heard from him made me feel that religion wasn't ,just a matter of saving reify own mis- erable self, but whether my life was going to be a 'bigger and a -better thing -for God and for my fellows'.

IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE OF JEAN PINDER Another home is lonely made, Another flower was doomed to fade, Another Angel, bright and fair, Has gone to climb the golden stair. Her stay on earth was very brief; She knew no sin or care or grief; Fifteen short years she here did roam Till her Heavenly Father called her home. We loved her well, no tongue can tell, But .longer here she could not dwell; God loved her too, and thought it best To take her ,tf;), His Heavenly rest. Yee, little Jean is now at rest, And peacefully sleeps on Jesus' breast, Hier prattling tongue no more we hear Nor view the form we loved so dear. We should not mourn for all is well, She was too pure on earth to dwell; We'll strive to live, that when we die, We'll meet our Jean at home on high. —A Loved One. TO OUR LITTLE JEAN Out of the shadows of sadness, Into the sunshine of gladness, Into the light of the blest; Out of a land very dreary, Gut of a world very weary, Into the rapture of rest. Out of to -day's sin and sorrow, Into a blissful to -morrow, •Into a day without gloom. Out of a land fiIIed with sighing, Land of the dead and the dying, Into a land without tomb. Out of the world of the wailing, Thronged with the anguished ailing, Out of the world of the sad. Into the world that rejoices, World of bright visions and voices, Into the world of the glad. —Contributed. EXTINCTION APPROACHES SEVERAL ANIMAL SPECIES Those who have nothing else to worry about can find sufficient cause for anxiety and despair in the fact that the fauna of the earth is being slowly but surely reduced and that certain species of animal are disap- pearing altogether. There are crea- tures with which our grandfathers were acquainted that have vanished, never to return, for it should be not- ed that once a species becomes ex - HOW O L WO AN LOST 20 LBS. OF FAT This headline is exactly true and means Just what it says. Ale*" her own letter : I take a daily d'se of Kruschen and I have lost two inches round the waist and hips and 28 lbs. since last summer. I feel very well'on'it, and people tell me I look very fit. I am 5 ft.,_4, ins. in height, 40 years old, and come ofd. stout family." Miss E. L. If you are fat, first remove the cause. When your liver, kidneys and bowels can't throw offthat poisonous waste material which is always accumulating in your Body --before you realise it you are growing hideously fat. Take Kruschen Salts in 'a glass of hot water every mgrarg. In three weeks' time, get on the scales and note how many pottfide of fat have vanished. Notice also how you have gained ii► energy and health. Your skin is clearer, your eyes sparkle with glorious health. You feel„:,;;� our'ien gger in body, keener in •mind. Khwill' give many fat people a joyous surprise. 'tinct there remains 'ne machinery in nature. to reproduce it. In Canada we have seen the bison, which was once as numerous as English spar- rows, vanish except for, a few spect means kept in national Parke. The pas- senger pigeon is gone. There is not one survi*vingi :on the face of the earth. Yet at thetime of the Fenian raid they were so numerous in the Niagara peninsula that their flight darkened the sun., At night when some of these great flocks rested for the night they actually broke ofr the limbs of huge trees so that the forest looked as though a hurricane had struck it. The same story is to be told in all other parts of the world, and if man was not a protector as well as a destroyer it seems possible that within a hundred years there would be no wild creatures left at all. They would have been shot or trap- ped or poisoned. But all civilized ,na- tions have framed game laws and ev- erywhere the vanishing animals are being jealously guarded. For some of the species the protection comes too late. For example, it is said of the southern white rhinoceros, the largest of the species, that only 20 head remain alive. There live in the Umfolozi game preserve in Zululand, and this sanctu- ary may presently disappear with the animals it shelters, for there is an insistent demand that it be opened for settlement. Two years ago two of the dwindling band of white rhin- oceros were shot by poachers, who probably hoped thus to hasten the day when the reserve would be abol- ished. The Transvaal Government has spent a good deal of thought on the problem of removing these huge creatures .from their present habitat to the great Kruger National Park. But the size and weight of the an- imals, the difficulty of catching and transporting them long distances without injury are so great that no action has yet been taken. In the absence of action they are likely to go the way of the great auk. The northern white rhinoceros, which is scarce bqt by no means so rare as its southern brother, is making its last stand in the Belgian Congo. It is protected by law but offers a constant temptation to poachers who can get $9 a pound for its horns, which are one of the most necessary ingredients in some Chinese medicines. There is a ready market for the horns just over the Belgian border, and the Gov- ernment has found its impracticable to send enough game wardens into the territory to put an end to the poaching which in turn will certainly put an end to the white rhinoceros. What is the rarest animal in the world? It is the great panda of Western China, in the opinion of Wil- liam T. Hornaday, formerly director of the New York Zoological Park, who writes on rare animals in the New York Times magazine, Until comparatively modern times it was not known that such an animal ex- isted as a separate species. Travel- lers, of course, had heard of it and some had seen it. But even photo- graphs did not reveal its secret. At first sight it seems to be a small bear with an unusually round head and a longer tail than most bears have. It is black and white, the tail, legs and ears being black, and the rest of the body white, except for a band that continues over the withers from the forelegs. But as a matter of fact the panda does not belong to the bear family at all, but rather to the por- cupines. It is only eight years ago that the first good .specimen was kill- ed and mounted. The Roosevelt bro • thers killed another and this is to be found in the Field Museum at Chica- go. The great panda has yet to be taken alive. The aardvark is even a greater rarity than the person who knows what an aardvark is. It is, in fact, an African animal whose name is Dutch for ground pig. It is a small animal, with a head shaped like that of a deer, ears like a donkey's, feet and legs built for burrowing and a tail that suggests a lizard origin. It is sparsely covered with hairs, and when the animal is standing in a nor- mal position from the tip of the tail to the end of the nose forms almost a perfect semi -circle. This animal is a rarity in the zoos of the world not because it is hard to find or capture but because it is almost impossible to provide it with suitable food in cap- tivity. The aardvark, which is about the size of a spaniel, is the world's champion digger and can make a hole in the ground faster than half a doz- en men working with pick and shovel. The okapi, an odd looking brown antelope about five feet high at the shoulder, is another denizen of the Belgian Congo that is never seen in captivity. It is said to be the shyest of all African animals and the legend is that no white man has ever shot one. Those that have been taken have fallen victims to the pits dug by the natives or by snares hidden in their path. Once they are caught they are clubbed to death, and thus are being exterminated. Only one okapi has ever come alive out of Africa and that died on its way to the Antwerp Zoological garden. On this continent the California elephant seal is dying out. It is being protected by the Meitican Government for its lives on the Island of Gaudaloupe. Even the small California sea lion is on the road to extinction despite the efforts made to protect it. Two years ago a census showed but 941 survivors, which as Dr. Hornaday says, is a mighty slim margin. Two other large animals, native of South America, are so rare; so hard to catch and keep alive that they might as weds` lave on the moon so far as zoologists are concerned. They are the giant otter and the giant armadillo. To Save Your Glass Curtains.
