Tey crucified him -His hands and feet were nailed to the cross (Luke 24: 30, 40), and. then it was lifted im and sunk into the ground with a sudden shock producing great pain. It was nine o'clock in the morning, the hour of the urinal morning sacrifice of which Jesus, the Lamb of Gad, was the great Antitype. "The cross was not so lofty and taro as In most medieval pictures. The feet of the sufferer were only a foot or two above the. ground, -a fact of some weight, se eholvang that Jesus suffered in the midst of his persecutors, and not looking down from above their heads." --Scbaff. The malefactors -Two thieves were crucified with Jesus, one on the right hand. ewe the other on the left. This was probabry done with the inten- tion of giving the people to think that Jesus Was to be classed with them. See Lea. Or 12. 11. The mocking crowd (vs. 34-37). 34. Father, forgive them -There were seven sayings of Christ while on the cross. Tide, the first one, is a prayer for his murderers. It is believed that this prayer was offered when Christ's agony was at its height. Parted his reinieut-The four soldiers divided am- ong themselves bis outer robe, head- dress, girdle, and sandals, but for his "coat", that is his tunic or under gar- ment, which was without seam and which would have been ruined if divid- ed, they east lots (John 19: 23, 24). There is no conflict between this state- ment and the fuller account given by John. Cast lots -See Ina, 2: 18. What Lt picture! "Amid the most solemn scone of human history, the unconscious actors sit down to gamble." "The legacy in worldly things left by Jesus Was very eireell." 35. The people stood behold- ing -vast crowds were in Jerusalem to 'attend the feast of the Passover, and many would be attracted to the place where Jesus and the robbers were cru- cifies!. The rulers -The dignitaries and members of the Sanhedrin, as well as the ordinary bystanders, mocked, for they suppose they have gained a com- plete victory. Derided him -The crowd mocked him from nine till twelve o'elocke But there were also friendly watebers at the cross (John 19: 25-27); .Teaus was not wholly deserted in this sad hour. "The women were last at the cross and first at the grave." Let him save himself - They thought that if Jesus were the Messiah surely he could deliver himself from the Roman cross. 30. Vinegar - The soldiers pretend to treat Jesus as a, king to whom the fest- ive cup is presentect-Codet. III. The superscription (v. 38). 38. Sup- erscription-Tbe white tablet nailed up- on the cross, above the head of the vic- tim, to declare the crime for wbien he was crucified. "It was a common cus- tom to affix a label to the cross, giving it statement of the crime for -which the person suffered." -Clarke. Was written -Pilate wrote this upseription evident- ly derision (John xix. 10). It was written in Hebrew for the dews, in Greek for the foreigners and visitors, in Latin for the "Powereeeedtetee and piety in 'their itiatirferms 'paydlnage at the feet of Jesus." King of the Jews -The words are somewhat different in the different gaspers, probably because some of the writers corned from one language and some from another. The trieth was proclaimed in jest; Jesus is in fare a "King with many crowns." IV. The robber's conversion (vs. 39-43). 30. Railed on Him -The two thieves cru- cified with Him may have belonged to band vein Barabbas; they evidently knew something about Christ. One Modr- ed, the other prayed. Save thyself, etc. -Prove your claim to the Messiahship by deliveringyourself and us from death. 40. Dost not thou fear God-Wbatever the reckless crowd may de, thou art near death; does this have no effect up- on you? 41. We -justly -He is a true penitent, confessing his sins.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS. I. The wan of the cross. "There was 81 derlotese over all the earth until the ninth hour" (v. 44), the day that Jesus was erucified. As it was with the Son God, so it will be with Iris followers. The way of the cress is it way of stiffen- ing, and to follow our Lori's exampde we must. I. Suffer silently. In all the intense agony of Jesua there was not a moan, not it gram The way of the tress is it way of suffering "without itiVertiaing the depth of the anguish. A dere will i•owl et the least pain, but it lamb will stiffer in silence. You should not talk about your sufferings, except very rare - and to only such souls ea Cod Las prepared. Goa may fiend a soul, onee in it life -time, to evhoin you eatt utter your trials with profit, and such a soul will likely be the last snie you would natur- :ally expect. Sometimes the very suffer- ings that weigh you down are so trifling and contemptible in the eyes of your best friends as to only make them Sneer •itt your heaviest cross." 2. Suffer sweetly. "To suffer without trying to fix the blame on any one, with- out philosophizing as to its cause or nature, without murmuring toward God, without resentment toward any creature, human or satanic, and without vexing ourselves," this is to suffer sweetly, "To take every cross from God evbile loving him supremely; to be tempted and tor- tured by Satan or cell spirits while bear- ing no personal Inallea toward teem; to stiffer innumerable disappointments and trials from our fellows with love to- ward all; to loathe ourselves thoroughly and not be vexing ourselves at our own niieedableness; to be snubbed, scolded, criticised, misunderstood, and persecuted, without it groan, or a kick, or a trace of threatening or retaliation, to be bruised and trampled upon, and turn, with quivering, speechless lip, and tear - dimmed eye, and pray for the one that, under pretence of religious duty, is tram- pling us in the dust"; this is to suffer sweetly. a. Suffer submissively. To have your earthly treasures snatched from your grasp, without clutching to hold them; to be brought instantly to a standstill in service without one rebellious thought; to walk into it dungeon with words of praise on your lips; to wear old, thread- bare clothing, enthout it thought of envy or covetousness; to eat the poorest food with a thankful disposition; to lay your blends in the grave With a peace that passeth all understanding; to have your naille reviled and cast out as evil, with a great tender love in your heart for your enemies; this is te suffer submissively. IL The words of the cross. 1. A work of love. The cross is the deepest expres- sion of the love of the Father (Rom. v. 7; 1 John iv. 10); the love of the Sou (Gal. ii. 20); the love of the eternal Spir- it. Because God loved us, Christ througb the eternal Spirit, offered Himself for us. Andrew Murray says, "What Adam could not do, what no man could do, Jesus Christ has done. He has opened the pas- sage out of this life in the flesh to the life of God and heaven by dying to it. He came and identified Himself with us in all the consequences of our sinful state so closely that He lived ami died as if He had been a sinful man. He took exactly the place that „a sinner ought te have taken. He did and suffered all that we ought, to have done and suffered if we could have won back our way to God. In the power of the eternal Spirit, by whirl He offered Himself a sacrifice unto God, end by which He teas raised again. His death was the victory over death and en entrance for His human nature too into the life and glory of God. And because as Son of God we belong to Him, and God appointed Him our second Adam end in His assuming our human nature ele made Himself one with us, His pas- sage through death to life avails for ns, and His Spirit enables us to walk in he way He opened up. Through a new spiritual death unto sin and a new spir- itual life unto God we tan come back end reach again the life kat in Adam." 'Z. A work of selatiOn. The penitent 'thief" (v. 42), and the centurion (v. 47). were trophies of the power of Christ. to save. Dr. Pierson tells us how as Mr. Woody's body lay in the casket, a beam sf sunshine stole in at the window. and curiously rested on his face, and noWbere else -and. by some still more curious ef- feet, possibly the framework of the win - or some intervening obstacle, the light as it fell on him showed the form of a /Toss distinetly visible Pent the platform.

Would that the cress of Christ in all its inspiring power and pparating influence might ever be seen Id the face of our lives. This le Christ's desire for us, and is what Ire filen for. As we enter into the full meaning of the: cross, arid know the fellowship of Ids sufferings, we in some respect ful- fil that desire." 42. Lord -"The very use of the word implies faith." Thy kingdom- He thus recognized Christ as a real King. His prayer shows that he believed (1) that Jesus was the Son of Ood; (2) that He had power and a willingness to save; (3) that they would eontinue to exist in it future state. 41 To -tidy -This was the second say- ing of Chnst on the cross.

The robber, wile mid hie name was 'Emhart end that he came from California, was recognized by the engineer es the same man who, on November 0, last, in an exactly similar manner, and at the same place on the road, went through the rear sleeper of an eastbantd Chieago, Rook Island ed Pee cifie overland lindted, which, on this di- vision, nuts over the Alton tracks.

London, Nov. 20. -Perhaps never be- fore in the history of British journalism have American topic' and news taken up so much space as at present. Just itow the leading subject of dis- cussion in the English press is the selec- tion of a successor to Sir Mortimer M. Durand, as British Ambassador at Wash- ington, whielnis brought in under some form or other in nearly all the comment on bnperial affairs. Many of the edit- orial writers agree with Sir Mortimer that Washington is "the most import- ant diplomatic post in the world." One of the principal weekly reviews, the Outlook, makes this subject the leading feature of its issue and gives up more than a page to it. The Outlook says the British Embassy at 'Washington has lost completely the political and social ascendency it enjoyed under Lord Paine eefoot. The blame for this is not teir Mortimer's, who commands univererit respect, but he was translated from a :mime which he filled with first dis- tinetion to an environment where it was practically impossible for a diplomat of lee traditions to become ricelimitized.. There has been no misunderstanding bco. tween the United Stattee and Great Bri- tain, but there has been some cessation of a complete understanding. What it now needed is it man as little like a professional diplo- mat as can b imagined and re- sembling as nearly as possible American representatives suck as Lowell, Choate and Reid, who have been the "most at. 104)1100 Ambassadors in the world lie - cause there has been no atmosphere of formalism or convention about them." Continuing, the Outlook praisee 'M. dusserand, the French representative at Washington, whom it describes as a "more fascinating critic and an histor- ian of English letters than any other writer now living." While landing James Bryce's amen- pliehments the paper says it believes his 1 selection to fill the Washington post I would be "nothing lees than it disaster at the present phase of Anglo-Americen relations," and calls for "rt very uncon- ventional appointment in utter disre- gard of precedent." The paper says also "It would be an astonishing proof of na- tional weakness if we are 'amble to find one Ambassador at least able to make himself as popular with the Americans as all American Ambassadors are with rucidentally the Outlook declares that President Roosevelt's personality is dominating influence upon the Ameri- can antion and that "it will remain done inert even if he is not chosen for a third term." • Ttlf BOAT» BEFORE filERIOVIER JURY.
