THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. LESSON IV, FIRST QUARTER, INTER NATIONAL SERIES, JAN. 27. Text of the Lesson.- Math, x.xil, 34-445, Memory Verses. 37-40—Golden Text, Math, xxii, 42 — Commentary Pre pared by the Rev. U. 31. Stearns. {Copyright, 3900, by American Press Asso ciation.] 34. “But when the Pharisees had heard chat He had put the Sadducees to silence they were gathered together.” The gath erings together against Him from the Babel days of Gen. xi to the last one of Uev. xix, 10, are very many, but they an ill the work of satan and shall be over thrown. After His parable of the mar riage feast the Pharisees took counsel how they might entangle Him in Ilis :ulk, so they sent unto Him their disci ples with the Herodians (verses 15, 10) with a question concerning tribute, the Sadducees follow with their resurrection question, and now the Pharisees alone with the law question. So the world, rationalism and formalism, all unbeliev ing, are ever questioning and arguing in their rebellion against God. 35, 30. “Master, which is the great commandment in the law?” This is the question of the lawyer who represents on this occasion the unbelieving Pharisees, who, going about to establish their own righteousness, will not submit to the righteousness of God. They think not of honor from God, but do all things to be seen of men (xxiii, 5). They know noth ing of humility and conviction of sin; they think only of praise of men and high places on earth. As we read or hear the Ton Commandments which were spoken by God Himself out of the midst of the fire (Pent, iv, 33) do we consider His greatness and holiness and the holiness which He requires as revealed in this law ? 3<. 38. Our Lord .Jesus puts the first four commandments into one nnd calls it the first and great commandment, for it covers our relation to God, and thnt is the first great thing to be considered. What men think of us is of no account unless we are right with God, and we are not right with Him if anything has tiie place in our heart which He alone should have. We must have no other god, no one or nothing else bowed down to, His name nlone exalted, no works hut His wrought in us. As it will be in the kingdom, “all lofty looks and haughtiness of men bowed down and the Lord alone exalted” (Isa. ii, 11, 17), so it should he now and wili be, by His grace, in every redeemed one. “Thnt God may be all” is the highest point in Scripture (I Cor. xv, 28). 30, 40. He sums up the last six com mandments in "Thou shalt love thy neighbor ns thyself,” which very same words are found in Lev. xix, 18, just as Ilis summary of the first four is found in Pent, vi, 5. for He is only bringing to their minds things which they knew or should have known, being . written in their Inw. Mark says (chapter xii, 33) that when Jesus had given this summary, a scribe said unto Him, “Well, Master, thou hast said the truth, for there is one God, and there is none other but He, nnd to love Him with all the heart and with all the understanding nnd with all the soul and with all the strength and to love his neighbor as himself is more than all whole burnt offerings nnd sacrifices.” Upon which Jesus said to him, “Thou art not far from the kingdom of God.” Had he known that in Christ nlone this righteous ness was ever seen, that He is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth’ (Horn, x, 4), and received Him as the Christ, he would have become a child of God (John i, 12). Love is the fulfilling of the law (Rom. xiii, 10). God Is love, nnd Christ was “God manifest in the flesh.” 41, 42. “While the Pharisees were gath ered together .Jesus asked them, saying, What think ye of Christ? Whose Son is He?” He now turns questioner, and His question is of far more importance than all they had asked Him. If we put with this the question in chapter xxvii, 22, which was asked by Pilate, “What shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ?" we have, it seems to me, the most Im portant question that any one can be asked or that any one can ask himself. On March 11, at Rnngun, Burma, Rev. D. Ij. Brayton, in his ninety-second year, hnving been 02 years a missionary, began his last message to the Karens thus: “There is one thing I wish to impress upon the minds of all my brethren, Ka rens and others, ns my last message— What think ye of Christ? You cannot be right in the rest unless you think rightly of Him.” He gave a clear state ment of the gospel of salvation by the blood of Christ nlone and said, among other things, “If we are not using all the abilities God has given us to make known this gospel truth thnt Christ is the only Saviour, we are without excuse.” 43, 44. “He saith unto them, How, then, doth David in spirit call Him Lord, saying. The Lord said unto my Lord.” In answer to His question, Whose Son is He? they replied, “The Son of David,” nnd then He asked this question, quoting Ps. cx, 1, nnd summarizes it in the next verse in these words, “If David, then, call Him Lord, how is He his son?” In Mimpriss’ harmony of the gospels there is this note: “This question can only be answered aright, as recognizing the fact that Christ proceeded forth and came from His Father in heaven, and thus is David’s Lord, while as being Ilian He was ‘of the house and lineage of David’ nnd so was David's son.” In Rev. xxii. 16, He says of Himself, “I am the root and the offspring of David.” He was truly God and truly man. equal with man, equal with God. This the Phar isees would not allow, but on one occa sion took up stones to stone Him. be cause, as they said. He being a man, made Himself God iJohn x, 33). Apart from some of His miracles, which were never duplicated through any of the apostles, as far as we know, one of the strongest words concerning Ilis divinity is that in the beg’mfing of His prayer, “And now, O Father, glorify Thou Me with the glory which I had with Thee be fore the world was" (John xvii, 5). 46. “And no man was able to answer Him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask Him any more questions.” Truly God gave Him a mouth and wisdom, which ail His adver saries were not able to gainsay nor resist (Luke xxi. 1.1), and He promises lb same to Ilis follow rs. It is written > f Stephen's adversaries. “They were not able to resist the w l.-dom and the spirit by which he spake" (Acts vi, 10). Mark says in connection with the close of our lesson (chapter xii. 37), “The common people heard Him gladly.” The things of God are still hidden from the wise and prudent and revealed unto babes. Bless ed are the common people w ho hear. There is uo better fertilizer for the garden or lawn than well rotted barn yard manure. The big ears of corn give a very sat isfying thump as they strike the throw board this fall. Now that election is over and the corn picked, let us have as good a time as we can this winter.

Wraps, Wrap Linings and Elegani Costumes, Wrap linings of lace or open embroid ery are applied over silk of the same col or ns the cloth composing the wrap or else of a very delicate tint differing from it. Cloth is extensively fashionable in pale tones as well as deeper ones, and very elegant costumes are made of it—white, ivory, pearl, gray and ecru, lavender and whity pink, with all the dainty pastel shades. In simple, clinging forms, with a decoration of incrusted guipure or silk embroidery, no gowns could be more charming. Heavy silk embroidery, ap pears also on rich evening wraps of cloth, an example being of ivory cloth embroidered with immense peonies in delicate shades of the natural colors, the embroidery being in high relief. This is r r i CLOTH SACK. a full length, loose mantle with large sleeves, lined with sky blue ottoman silk and having a eapuchon of the same ma terial. The modiei collar is lined with sable. The illustration shows a half length sack wrap of mastic cloth. The top is a short, closed bolero, ornamented with stitched bands of cloth and fastening with two buttons. The lower part is mounted on this bolero in stitched plaits which are left free toward the base. Be low the waist the fronts are slightly scal loped. and the edges are finished with a stitched band. The sleeves have two stitched bands near the top and a border of mink at the flaring wrists. The stitch ed vnlois collar is lined with mink, aud the body of the sack is lined with wad ded silk. The draped hat is of turquoise panne, with a cluster of fancy plumes at the side. .Fudio Chollet. VARIOUS NOTES. Details of Tills Season's Attractive House Gowns. The watteau plait at the back of prin cess house gowns and wrappers is being gradually dispensed with, as it tends to give the figure a thick appearance. A plain back is now usually preferred. A pretty way of making an empire gown is to mount it on a yoke which forms a little bolero or short bodice in front, while at the back it is cut upward in a sort of peak in the middle. The skirt, plaited or gathered to this yoke, follows the line of the point and has a watteau effect. Large, open oriental sleeves are much used on house gowns. They are plain, plaited or have a long end like what used to be called angel sleeves. The cut Illustrates n costume of black satin having a skirt laid in stitched plaits. SATIN'GOWN. The bodice is plaited at the top and cov ered with a sort of cuirass of heavy ecru lace, forming a point in front and a short bolero at the back. The plaited sleeves of elbow length terminate in a double puff headed by a plaited drapery and near the top is an encircling band of ecru lace. The hat of gray felt is of original form, having a double brim edged with black velvet. The trimming consists of black velvet, black plumes tnd a jeweled ornament. Junto Chollet.
