Tho Troy Times, which claims Troy as the

but tho sizes were rapidly increased as the
gloles came Into opular use.
Tho balls on which the maps are pasted are
many of them made in Iloslou from, whence
they tire sent to Troy to 1st covered and

Iv, 4a.
It is always dillliMilt to prepare and to teach
the Re view Isou,
riome scIhkiIs niay prefer tho temperance
lesson ill lioniaiiB xill, -l, which Is sug
gested by the eoniinilNsi; other schools the
missionni V lesson in M:ii tbevv iv, li!-l.'t; st.il
other schools may use the oecai'.iinu prayer
ami inijuity inisaiiii;. This wo have known
tolm (lone wiih great Micce. Aft'-r f he texts
are recited and the record mu le the lea.lei
may give this direction to the occasion H
cent converts may g v brief testimonies, the
ohler Christ inns may ad. 1 their riper exjs-ri-ence,
and those who desire to lcoiiue I hris
lianu tnuy inuuifest their de.ore by rising.
Then, after prayers have lxsu offered, the
general school may be dismissed, wliile thosn
w ho l-ii for religious conversation may meet
in soiiiu smaller room. It is our llriu convic
tion that im-ciis ous of this sort should lo more
fi'i-ipieut. Wo often cut down gulden grain
which we never gather into sheaves. During
the past few years we have seen admirable
results from the use of tlics. melius. Children
while young should bo ciimm'iu;''d to give
their hearts to ClirKt and coime.'t lhei:iM-lves
with his chinch. Hut it is fitting that a re
view should Is) given for thorn who wish to
go over the lessons in their order.
1. July 3. The Infant Jesus. Muttlnuv ii, 1
lU. The word Jisius is i xplaiued for us in the
(joldell Text of Him le-wni. It is a irecious
word to every Christian ear and heart. II
was the true Joshua. He came to deliver his
jsiople from bouduge ami to lend them to the
true Canaan. The infancy of Jixis brings
him near to the hearts of parents und chil
dren. He gloi'l d and sanctilied the era. lie;
he honored motherhood. The Christ mu-1
have his birth in every heart in order that his
coming may tiring to each one of us the
largest possible blessing.
'. July 10. The Flight into Egypt. Matthew
ii, l.Vi. I'ven as a bal Christ's pr-sence
devoloKsl hostility, Wherever h comes ho
excites the wrath of ignorant and wicked
men. In our early Christian life we must
eicct H'i M-eution; but as Gist delivered his
iufniit Hon, so ho will deliver all who put
their trust in him.
3. July 17. John the T.aptis. Matt fii. 1
VJ. The charuct'T of the noble jtaptit is
worthy of nurefiil study. W neeil such stal
wart Is-lievers and I'earhrss pivni hn in our
day. He rightly divined the nord, he lived
what he preached, but bis highest honor was
found in pointing Inquirers to the "IjuiiIj of
Ood." lie decreased thr.t Christ might in
crease. 4. July CI. The I!i.,.li.-.iu of Ji.imih Mutt
iii, 1II-17. The central thought of this lesson
is the obedience of Jesus Christ lie ttfxl in
our place; as our representative, hn submitted
to baptism. Ood commended the act by mi
audible voice from heaven . xpre'eJiig appro
val. Afterward Christ gave Lie command
niclit to all believer to l,e baptized We
thus have both bis command and example.
It becomes us to have due regard to t his ordi
nance ai all act of o'..ed:enc to our legended
Lord. It marked I is entrance Into his puMii!
ministry. It was nNo the occasion of Ids ro
cking fuller Cftnci ptionsof li'seurlhlv work.
6. July lil. Tho Temptation of Jesus. Matt
iv, 111. From the wutep, of baptism
Christ went to tho wilderness of teiiiptntioti.
His whole soul Is aglow with holy enthusi
asm; but no act of religious olinbeiii e, no con
dition of spiritual joy, can assm u'iis of free
dom from temptation. It was u moment of
Intense interest for the race, is.ilau hail
overcome the fu st Adam. If he cm over
come the second Adam his victory will be
complete, Christ's example in overcoming
Kiitan is worthy of our imitation. Housed
no weapon but the "sword of t lie spirit, nhich
is tho word of Ood." Tempt it ions i:re sure
to come upon us; but Cl:n:,t won, so we tuny
win. ( ur Lord know by experieiiet. what tho
struggle with temptation means; lie therefore
can i.J input hizti willi those that are tempUsl.
We may chiim that Rymputhy, and we may
bo sure thut lie will givo i;s his uk im; help.
0. Aug. 7. Jesiis in ClalilcH. Matt iv, 17
S.". This Ls a le...suii of giviit interest. Chri-.t
brought light to those who had sat in iluik
nei's. We s.'O him here walking by tho .Sea of
Ualilee, culling two pairs of brothers into his
service. The foundation of Ids church was
limn laid, 'i heso men immetliutely left liieir
daily duties and followed Jesus. Their
prompt, obedience we should imitate. Christ
showed himself to bo a great teacher,
preacher and healer. All manner of sickness
yielded to Ids power. Ho still possesses this
cliaractcrlK'i'.r. Ho will iieal the souls of all
who will coinn unto him. Our highest honor
is to become, bis disciples.
7. Aug. 11. The r.eatltudi's. Matt v,
1-10. This lesson intiny Sunday school schol
ars know by heart. When Christ first opened
his mouth, hissings fell upon all who sat at
his feet, trover before nor since huvo such
wonderful words been spoken. The world
culls those who are rich the happy. Christ
contradicts this opinion. Ueciilled the poor,
the sorrowing, the mock, the hungry, the
merciful, tho pure in heart, the peace makers,
the persecuted, the happy ones of the earth.
We Heed still to learn tho lesson which ho hero
teaches. Ho also commands us to let our
light shine. Kvery boy mid girl hits some
light We must keep tho lower lights burn
ing. 8. Aug. 21. Jesus and the Ijiw. Matt.
v, 17--U. This is a continuation of the ser
mon tin the mount Many who heard Christ
supposed that he had come to destroy the
law. This was a great mistake, iiu laid not
come to destroy, but to fulilll. fie lifted the
law to a higher plane; be curried it trut'.is
from the outward act to the Inward thought
He wus its original author; he was, there
fore, iU ls-st interpreter. This is true still;
even to this hour ho is tho world's greatest
teacher.
0. Aug. 'JS. Tiety without Display. Matt
vi, 1-1.1. There were many errors which
Christ win obliged to rebuke. One of
them was a tendency to make a display of
piety. This was characteristic of thoecribc
and rhariscc. Christ shows thut our Rood
deeds are to I done with a regard for Ood's
approval rather than mnn's; as in our pray
ers, so in our almsgiving. The man who
prays to be seen of men will not 1 heard of
God. Christ does not here prohibit family or
public prayer, but he gives direction regard
ingour privato prayers. "The Model Prayer,"
which he here gives, we ought all to know
thoroughly and repeat often. Our whole
live ought to prove that we are striving to
hallow (J i si's great name.
10. Sept. 4. Trust in our Heavenly Father.
Matt vi, iU-s34. Our Lord continue to re
buke a lack of trust, aa well as hypocritical
display. God cares for the fowl of the air,
and for th flowers of the field; it i certain
then that be will not be indifferent to his
children. Distrait of Ood is unbecoming on
the part of hi children. Undue anxiety un
fit for the duties of today, and Ixtrrow also
the burden of to-morrow. W e must seek
first the kingdom of Ood. The man who
seeks this kingdom shall bars all earthly
things which Ood see best for him to possess.
11. Hept 11. Golden Precepts. Mutt, vll,
l-pj,W now move forward to the nioro
particular instruction given in this Jomoii.
Christ her rebukes the tendency to Judptf
others harshly and ourselves partially. This
tendency is as unmanly us it is uiichrlst.un.
It is as truly a form of hyxx;rlsy as our
giving of alms to be nocii of men. Wo are
encouraged in this lesv.ii to pruy for the g.xxl
things which we need. These God is Jiloro
willing to givo than our earthly uir. nls ure
to give givxl thlngt to their children.
I,'. Sept. W Solemn Warnings. Matt 7,

A ToHilylnit Tailor.
The English tradesman ls a toady I had
some clotle-s leing built at a tailor's, patron
izel princiially by army ollleors. Being only
an American civilian, he did not treat me
with any extraordinary politeness. Indeed,
he was very uncivil. When the major general
called for me that day at the hotel, I told him
I had to go to tho tailor's to try on those
clothes. "AH right, 1 11 drive there and wait
for you ;" and away we went "I'll just go
in," he said, when we got there, "and see what
your taste is in coats." lue tailor simply
fell down whon he saw me walk in with the
major general. lie groveled, bu cringed so
much so that I laughed at him, and wli.il he
got out I toid the major general.
"es,"ho said, "it H ratlier contemptible
toe a man to got down and cringe, but I sup
pose it helps their business."
And when l went back alone tho tail, r
