International lesson for January 6. 18SS
John th Baptist Beheaded Mark i
6:17-29.
[Specially Arranged from Peloubet s Notes.]
Golden Text.—Fear not them which kill the
body, but are not able to kill the soul.—Mat
thew 10:28.
The section or histort belonging to this
lesson includes Mark 6:12-30; Matthew 14:1-12:
t.uke 3:19. 20. 9:7-9, together with a brief re
view of the earlier notices of John's mission in
all four gospels.
Time —John was imprisoned in March or
April. A. D. 28. He was beheaded a year later.
In March or April. A. D. 29.
Place.—Jesus was in Galilee with His
twelve disciples. Jonn was imprisoned and
put to death at Macherus. a strong fortress
and castle at the southern extremity of Perea,
on the borders of Arabia, nine miles east of the
northern end of the Pead sea. The feast held
by Herod at which Herodias demanded the
head of John the Baptist was probably held in
this castle.
J E.srs had been preaching more than two }
years. He was about thirty-two and a half
years old.
John preached about two years, from the j
spring of A. D. 26 to the spring of A. D. 28. He
was In prison one year, and was martyred at \
the age of thirty-three.
Place in the Life of Christ —Early in '
the third year of His public ministry, in the
l itter part of the great Galilean division of
His ministry.
Introduction.—The Gospel had made such j
great progress that the echoes of the wonder- j
ful deeds of Jesus, by His word and through j
Ills disciples, had reached the court of Herod, j
’'Tie conscience of the guilty king smote him j
tor his murder of the holy prophet John, and i
made him fear that he had come back to life
with new powers much more dangerous to the <
wicked ruler than his former bold reproofs, j
This foar on the part of Herod is the occasion
for telling here the story of the martyrdom of
John.
LESSON NOTES.
The Persecutor. Herod. The ruler
<>f Galilee and Perea was Herod Anti
pas, one of the sons of Herod the Great.
His mother was a Samaritan. Lie mar
ried a daughter of Aretas, king of Ara
bia Petrea, just south of Perea; but,
becoming acquainted with Herodias,
his brother Philip’s wife, in Rome, he
sent his wife home, and married
Herodias while her husband was still
living. King Aretas avenged this in
sult by invading Herod's dominions j
:;nd defeating him with great loss. It I
was during the preparations for this
war that John was beheaded. Herod
remained in Palestine till A. D. :iB, j
when he was banished to Lyons, in
Prance, but eventually died in Spain.
Herod’s Character. “From the first,
Herod was a light-minded, unreliable, |
prodigal and luxurious prince; hence,
also, he proved superstitious and cun- |
ning (Luke 13:32; Mark 8:15). and on I
certain occasions, either from folly or 1
weakness, utterly heartless, cruel and j
callous."—Lange. He was, it is said, a
Saddueee. and believed in no future j
life or resurrection of the dead. yet. by 1
a strange contradiction, his guilty con- j
•eience made him believe that Jesus
was the murdered John restored to '
life. "Nothing is more common than
the uniou of superstition and unbelief.
It was said of one of this sort, one of
Ihe most learned men of the day (the
younger Vossius), that he believed
everything but the Hible. I have known
jiersona who have ceased to believe in
the divine mission of Jesus afraid to
pass a place with which some absurd
•tory of a supernatural appearance was
connected. God will, in this way. make
:nany unbelievers witnesses against
themseives.”— Expositor's Hible.
The Martyr Preacher.—His life, it)
John was the son of a priest, Zacharias, i
and of Elizabeth, also descendant of j
varon.and was horn probably in or near j
Hebron, in the summer of B. C. 5. lie j
vas at this time about thirty years old.
(2) He was a Nazarite, pledged to drink
uo wine nor strong drink, and to let
his hair and beard grow untrinnned. as
sign of consecration to God. (See
Xnm. 6.) He was filled with the Holy
Spirit from his birth. (3) His early
life, up to thirty years of age, was
passed in the solitudes of the wilder
ness of Judea, where he was prepared
for his great missiou as the forerunner
of the Messiah. (4) His appearance
was like the popular idea of a great
prophet raised übove caring for tem
poral things, and protesting against
the luxury of the age. He greatly re
embled Elijah in his appearance as
well as character. (5) His work was
to prepare the way for the Messiah, as
foretold in the prophets (Isa. 10:3-5), In
this work he had been engaged for two
years, boldly denouncing sin, and call
ing to repentance. (6) He was a fearless,
consecrated reformer, not destroying,
but building up. He was "a tower of
strength which stood four-square toall
the winds that blow.”
Ills Place of Imprisonment and Exe
cution.—“ Herod himself:" Not led on j
by the Pharisees or other Jewish ene- I
"lies, but for personal reasons. "Bound j
!iim in prison:" “The place of his im
prisonment ami deatii, as we learn
from Josephus (antiquities 18:5-2), was
Macherus, about seven miles from the
Dead sea, on the northeast side.” !
Among mountains higher than those j
around Jerusalem, rises from a valley
"a lone flat ridge, more than a mile
long and quite difficult of avrss, all of
which was majl a strong fortress.
From this ridge rises a high, conical
llill, the top of which is one hundred
yards in diameter, and which was for
■ ified as an impregnable citadel. In this ;
citadel, besides a very deep well, and a
very large and deep cemented cistern,
ere now found ’two dungeons, one of
them deep and itssides scarcely broken
in.' which have 'small holes still visible j
in the masonry, where staples of wood
and iron had once been fixed. One of
these must surely have been the prison
house of John the Baptist’ (Tristram.) |
On this high ridge licrod the Great
built a very extensive and beautiful
palace.
eitACTU'AI. SUGGESTIONS.
The only hope for a guilty conscience
:s !n the redeeming love of Jesus, of ;
vlioin John was the forerunner. No
i egrets that, like Herod’s, are weaker
than the fear of man, no washing of
hands like Pilate’s, no tears like Esau's,
“not all the perfumes of Arabia,” cun
cleanse the guilty soul.
The true minister will reprove the
tins of the great and the powerful who
lire bringing injury upon the people.
But ho must expect enmity and
trouble. Virtue does not always te
ceive its reward in this world, nor In
worldly t>euco and "lnty.

BOBS AND RUNNERS.
Cladding la a Social Fad Just

Bwr[ Gould an Ardent Admirer •( the
Oldest Sport of the Snow Season—
Tobtn>alii( on the Bankt
of the Bndton.
[COPTIUGHT, 1894.1
HOUGH since
S .* ',|. ' "1 | Tiii time began the
\\ sled has been
looked upon as
v v ■'P2&j*2 a small boy’s
pet and prerog-
V v # ative, it must
L *'■3 be admitted
that the chil
dren of a larger
growth are in the "bob” vitally inter
j ested nowadays. If any evidence were
needed to indorse this statement the
j many sledding parties at the Hudson
| river residence of Mr. George Gould
will supply it. Mr. Gould is a very en
thusiastic sledder, and of all types pre
! fers a “bob,” and that, with plenty of
i money to build a splendid toboggan
l slide, he should prefer to do just
I straight “bobbing” and coasting, drag
| ging his own sled up the incline again,
; speaks volumes for his enthusiasm for
! this old time sport of the snow season.
| Probably it was this detail which has
brought about a number of improve
ments and also a variety of new appli
ances for use in the coming season.
The old sled was a comparatively
small, low running affair, and it gained
its advantage in speed over the tobog
gan by reason of the friction surface
being much smaller, as the sled runs on
the two narrow runners while the
whole tinder surface of the toboggan
touches the .snow. Where the snow is
soft the toboggan has the advantage
by reason of not sinking so deep, but
where the surface -is moderately hard
j the sled is the faster vehicle of the two.
The one great drawback to the old
sled, and the toboggan as well, was
the fact that where a sudden turn had
“•uohAnu” by hoomuuht
to lie made it was almost impossible to
make it without either stopping’ the
way of the sled altogether or in turn
ing it over "kerflop" without warning.
This was due to the fact that the sled
was rigid and shared the disadvantage
: of a two-wheeled cart, as compared
with one which lias the front wheel
titteri on a pivot like a delivery wagon.
This suggested itself to some bright in
dividual, and the result has been a
flexible sled. This sled is so built that
the runners can be veered to the right
nr to the left, and they are made of "T"
shapeil spring steel, which makes the
sled very strong vertically, but other
wise flexi hie to a certain extent. Across
the front is a steering bar, which may
tie operated either by the hands or the
feet, and as there is no drag or friction
j as when tin* foot is trailed, the speed is
] much greater. It is, however, safe to
| predict that the rider will lie on It
] when hv himself, and linng his leg out
j as a guide for the straight run, for in
this is half the established fun, but
I the new principle will be a welcome

I one at a sudden or sharp turn, and will
; be especially acceptable when it is de
sired to take a passenger, as it gives
nearly double the room and increases
the command over the sled a thousand
fold. The writer remembers a winter
some eight years ago when he was sled
ding down a pretty steep hill to a road
on tlie other side of which was a broad,
deep river. Coming down the hill there
was an upset, and toescape it he turned
his sled on one side, getting out of the
regular track, and spinning straight
for the river bank. The sled struck
the road, and in the attempt to turn it,
the two riders were spilled into the
water and so lost the remainder of the
evening’s sport, and caught a heavy
Cold. If the sled had been flexible the
angle could have been turned safely
and the sled brought to a standstill on *
the hare road f
One of the novel ideas for transpor- 1
(ation over snow and ice which is to J
be introduced this year is the Sparks- 1
toetting or Norwegian sled. This is to 1
the Norwegian what the horse is to 1
the Arab and the Cossack, and so high*
ly is it thought of that several compa
nies of the standing army of that coun
try an<l also of Sweden have been fitted '
out with sleds for reconnoitering pur
poses. Tbe Nparkstoetting rider stands *

erect. The sled consists of two ten- ;
foot long runners of seasoned pine j r
which are about an inch thick and four ■
inches wide, turned up at the ends like
an old-fashioned pair of skates. Near
the center of the rnners, a little to
the front of the exact center, there are
fixed two light uprights three feet
high, fitted in some cases with a light
crossbar, and these uprights are guyed
to the turned up ends by light but
strong pieces of wood, so that they will j
not sag forward with any ordinary j
weight, but will remain rigid. The
two runners are also guyed across the I
end at the front to keep them the right
distance apart. Just behind each ot j
the uprights there is a foothold made j
on each of the runners by tiny blocks j
of wood which keep the foot from slip
ping off and give it a good solid front
brace.
The rider takes the machine and i
places it either on the level, or on an j
incline, where the snow is thick and [
crusted, and placing his left foot on
the foothold on the left runner, he
grasps the upright with his hands and
gives a strong push to the ground with
his right foot. Properly applied the
sled will run straight forward and a
second push with the foot will increase
the momentum until after the first ;
eight or ten pushes the sled will run j
forward with a minimum effort on
anything like good going, either up- j
hill, on the level or downhill. When
one foot is tired, the other is used.
The runner to protect his shoes has a
tiny clamp of steel which fits <S\ the
toe, and so geta a better grip of the
snow and saves the leather. Jn com
ing down hill the foot is used as a
brake as In sledding. As to the speed
to be obtained, there is a Swedish
record of one hundred and thirty miles
In twenty-four hours over regular coun
try roads. When it is desired to carry i
a passenger, a light but stout seat of |
oak is laid on the runners between the
guys and the uprights, and the rider
sits there with the legs curled up under
them. Except in going up hill this
front weight does not make much dif- |
ferenee or in actual work
in forcing the sled along. The sled
only weighs thirty pounds, and there
is not much better fun than racing
with it on a clear, moonlight night.
The latest thing in ice travel is the
snow and ice velocipede of Prof. George
Whistler, who last summer delighted
the eyes of the passengers up and down
the Hudson by his gyrations with his
water bicycle in the neighborhood of
Poughkeepsie. The machine is some
thing like a bicycle, especially as re
gards the frame and upper part. The
front "fork" is not a fork, but a rigid
past terminating in a skate which can
be moved to left or right for the pur
pose nf steering the machine. At the
back of this, where the chain is fastened,
there is another skate blade, but this
one is rigid and only intended to hold
the machine a certain distance from
the surface of the ice when the rider is
mounted. Over this is affixed the sad
dle on the usual spring. At the back 'i
of this is the driving wheel, which has j
a thin steel rim with projecting teeth !
which grip the ice, but not with force |
enough to act as a drag or destroy the i
speed by any waste of motive power.
This is driven by a sprocket chain from
the crank shaft in the usual way. it j
is claimed that the (piicker this ina- j
chine is driven the easier the work, as ]
the great resistance comes from the !
grip iif tlie machine on the ice. Get a j
road machine into motion and then j
cease pedaling, it runs a very little I
way if tlie road lie level; try the same j
thing with this machine on the ice and
it runs three times as far. So with a
man on skates. For work on snow the
two front skates are exchanged for '
oucsof broader bottom, but the driving 1
wheel remains unchanged. It is doubt- |
ful if it would be easy to work on snow
unless the crust was very hard, as the j
weight of the machine, over one hun
dred pounds, is against it.
The Value of Corn Fodder.
\Ve have always attempted to impress
tic farmer with the value of corn fod
der. Prof. Morrow has said that corn
fodder or corn stover may be safely fed
to either horses, cattle or sheep, wheth
er tilt animals be young or ‘old. For 1
hogs which it is desired to fatten rap- ,
idly in the early autumn there is.
probably, no better food than tlie stili
green and sweet corn fodder. Neither
3orn fodder nor corn stover is usually a
•desirable food as a sole ration. Many
thousands of tine beeves have beca fat
tened with little other food than corn 1
fodder. Farmers' Voice.
A New Dress Material.
A new dress fabric mado of “peat
fiber” Is in contemplation, and the pos- J
nihility of using aluminium for making t
drapery goods is thought to be very J
practical, since it can be drawn into
wires finer than a hair, and yet so fine '
and supple that they can be woven
with silk. It has already been used for
silk bows. ‘
No Opportunity.
“And she didn't change counte
nance?”
“No; their was no time to return to *
her boudoir,”—Puck.
MISCLELANEoUS.
IT'S A SECRET
that many women owe their
beauty to Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription. The reason beauty j
of form and face, as well as grace,
radiate from the common center —
health. The best bodily condition
results from good food, fresh air,
and exercise, coupled with the ju
dicious use of the “Prescription.” |
In maidenhood, womanhood, and
motherhood, it’s a supporting tonic
that’s peculiarly adapted to her
needs, regulating, strengthening, and
curing, the derangements of the sex.
If there be headache, pain in the
back, bearing-down sensations, or
general debility, or if there be nerv
ous prostration, and sleeplessness,
the “ Prescription ” reaches the
origin of the trouble and corrects it
It dispels aches and pains, corrects
displacements and cures catarrhal in
flammation of the lining membranes.
It’s guaranteed to benefit or cure, or
the money paid for it is refunded.
