Jesus Sets Men Free. --.Mark 7, 1-37,
Commentary.—I. Jesus auswers His
-critics (ve, 1e23). The seribee anti
Pharisees from JerusaleM were se
eager to find occasion to discredit and
condemn Jemis, that they come to Ca -
vernal= to seek an opportunity to
do that. They found Ills disciplee dis-
regarding Jewish traditions in not
wasting their hands before eating,
The burdens which were imposed nef-
ola the Jews by these tradltious wove
heavy, and Jesus showed the scrinee
mad Pharsees that while they were
giving rauelt attention to thee° tra-
dition% they were violating the law
which God had Wen them. He dealt
severe.ele' with them, characteriziog
them, ss hypocrites, of whom Dinah
heal said ,"This people honoreth Pie
Wtth lips, but their heart Is far
from me" (Ise. 29; 13). Ile charged
them with a failure to honor and pro-
vide for ',nth. parents. The traditions
allowed them to dedicate themseisses
and their goods to sacred uees and in
eo doing find an excuse for not car-
ing for their fathers and raotlaers. On
another occasion Ile pronounced woo
upon the scribes and Pharisees for
their failure to teach the people the
truth as set forth in the law, and
farther for their leading them into
wicked ways. They were careful about
minor matters, but neglected the grea-
ter matters of the law, "judgment,
mercy, atid faith" (Matt. 23.) 23), He
declierea that defilement came not
from without, as through a failure
to wash the bands, but it came from
within, from the heart. Jesus placed
emphasis upou the necessity of having
the bean right.

Tople.-.Christian Liberty.
I. Through faith.
11, Found in Christ.
1. Through faith. fa this lesson we
learn that the most astonishing and
acceptable faith may•be exercised by
the most unlikely persons. On this
occasion Jesus had left his own coun-
try and people, and sought retirement
among the Gentiles. The boundless
compassion a the Son of God accounts
for the fact that Ile could not be hid-
den, The heathen woman -In an il-
lustration of the great drawine that
exisat between the Savior and the
soul that needs and 'seeks him. We
may safely say that his sole purpose
In going there was to minister to that
sufferer, and to crown her faith and
make her an example to those who
stood by, as well as to future genera-
tions. She had much against her in
her c:rennastances, In the eyes of the
Jews she belonged to the most hated
of all Gentle races. She received lit-
tle countenance from Christ's diteciples.
They desired him to send her away,
but it was not front them that she
sought help. Though a heathen in re-
ligion and an ellen lot race she credit-
ed what she had heard ot Jesus. Her
faith overcome natural prejudice in
herself and the rear of ite influente Iui
others, Tnere are many striking fea-
tures in the character of Geis woman,
her motherly care, her energy, humili-
ty and pleading. She had a deep sor-
row spurring her on to make every
exertion. She felt her ;teed and the
true character of her afflictien. Jesus
tried her faith by perfect silence, by
seeming indifference and by apparent
reproach, but she ceula not be defeat-
ed because she would not doubt. She
turned that which seemed most
against her into an argument in lter
favor. She granted to the Jews the
first place, and coUnted 'herself next,
thtis exalting Jesus as the Savior of
all. She most firmly believed Christ
to be the Lord, able to weds a miracle
on her daughter. It meant a very
great thing to have her daughter c1 -
livered, though to Christ it was a merc,
ciumb, as compared with his supply
of power. Observe the growth of her
faith.

With the• French Army,
21,—The closeness of the co-opera-
tion between the French and 13rit-
ish commanders and troops was
well illustrated by an incident whtelt
occurred recently a1 a southere-
part of the front. 'The Clerraaus
-weve ohseryed„taking. up positions
on a hill, and a imall detachment of
Cartadidn cavalrymen, who the pre -
vine' day found themselves with tee
Prench army corps, received orders
to occupy the summit. Dismounting,
they clambered up the hillside,
but shortly afterwards Were driven
off. The commanding general or-
dered tbom to return immediately to
the hill. The Canadian mounted their
homes and rode, to the summit under
the heaviesit Lire and held the position
until ordered to join iit the general
retirement.
