PRESENTATION IN THE TEMPLE.
I-ESSON TEXT—Luke 2:22-39.
MEMORY VEltSES—23. 30.
GOLDEN TEXT—"For mine eyes have
■etn thy salvation, which thou hast j>re-
Earod before the face of all peoples."—
uke 2:30-31.
This leBsOn concerns the matter of
the presentation of the Christ child In
the temple forty days after his birth.
Ever since the redemption of the first-
born of Israel on that dark night in.
Egypt, when the destroying angel pass-
ed through the land and smote all the
first-born of the Egyptians, the first-
born son of every Hebrew family bo-
longed unto the service of God. As a
substitute for all the first-born, the
tribe of Levi was chosen to act as
priests. By this, however, the Hebrew
parents were not exempt from the pre-
sentation of their first-born to God.
By reason of the choosing of the Le-
vites, the first-born son of the family
was released from priestly service on
the payment of a certain amount of
redemption money.
Joseph and Mary being righteous
parents, obeyed this law and presented
the Christ child in the temple. In thus
presenting the child, these parents
realized the great truth, which all par-
ents should realize, that our children
belong to God, and are but loaned to
us. Christian parents should imitate
the example of Joseph and Mary.
Mary also made a personal offering
as a token of her appreciation of the
goodness of God. It was a small gift,
it is true, but it was the best that she
In her humble circumstances life could
give, and, therefore, was as accept-
able to God as any offering of much
higher value would have been. Would
it not be a good thing to celebrate the
birth of your child by making a spe-
cial offering, or gift to the cause of
God, to some needy work?
We have a wonderful description of
the work of Christ in this lesson. He
Is the light of the world. Not one, but
Man Undoubtedly Had Great Scheme,
Although There Was a Slight
Obstacle in the Way.
In the den which opened off the liv-
ing room the man was roaring 60ul-

an old song, "If 1 had but ten millions

TOO EXCITING FOR CROKER
Ex-Tammany Chief, Like So Many
Others, Succumbed to the Fascl-
- nation of Stevenson.
The ideas of Richard Croker do not
run on bookish lines. Regretting this
circumstance and considering that a
taste for literature, once inculcated,
might be a source of pleasure In his
advanced years, a journalistic friend
who crossed the Atlantic with the one-
time chieftain of Tammany hill not

had forsaken his national religion, he , Mr' Croker listened with unfeigned in

apparently enjoyed the narrative of
When a child sulks drowsily, or Is
fretful, it is usually due to some slight
disorder of the digestive organs, and a
mild laxative is very often all that is
necessary to restore cheerfulness and
buoyancy of spirits.
In cases where the use of a gentle,
effective laxative stimulant is indi-
cated, many of the best physicians are
now prescribing Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted-
ly the perfect laxative, being mild, yet
positive In its action on the bowels,
and far preferable to violent cathart-
ics and purgative waters. It Is very
pleasant to the taste and is an ideal
remedy to regulate and strengthen the
stomach, liver and bowels. Its easy,
natural action makes it especially de-
sirable in the case of children, a dose
at bed-time being sure to have the do-
sired result next morning, with no at-
tendant unpleasantness or discomfort.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in BOc and
$1.00 bottles. If you have never tried
this splendid remedy, write to Dr. W.
B. Caldwell, 201 Washington St., Mon-
ticello, 111., for a sample. He will be
very glad to send a trial bottle with-
out any expense to you whatever.

Awful Suspicion.

and when his father came Into the

enough and did not want any more;
that Confucianism was good enough
for scholars, and Buddhism for the
masses. The Japanese convert replied,
"If Confucianism is an all-sufficient re-
ligion, why is it, since the founder liv-
ed thousands of years before Christ
and taught during a long life, that it
has not spread beyond China and Ja-
pan? And if Buddhism is an all-sufli-
cient religion, how is it, started by
Budda thousands of years before
Christ, and taught by him through a
long life, that it has not spread be-
yond India, China, and Japan? If
Christianity is a bad religion, how is it,
eince its founder taught three years,
and was put to death when he was
thirty-three years old, that it has
spread over all the world?"
Jesus is the desire of all the nations.
There is no satisfaction to be found in
any religion outside of him. Even
Simeon, representing the Old Testa-
ment, did not find lull satisfaction un-
til he had seen the Christ child.
The salvation of tho world centers
in Christ. He is the only Saviour.
Christ is the only person who can save
the world from its sin. The world
had had reformers, scholars, philoso-
phers, philanthropists before Christ,
but it never had a Saviour. Jesus
Christ is the only person born into
the world with reference to the sins
of men.
We may learn a lesson of what it
means to have faith in Christ from the
words of Simeon. He had seen no
mighty works wrought by Christ; no
miracles had been performed in his
sight; he had heard no words of king-
ly dignity from the lips of Jesus;
Christ had pressed upon this good
man's heart no claims to Messiahship
—and yet with the eye of faith he saw
all these things in the infant Jesus.
Centuries have rolled by since Simeon
lived and died, and Jesus Christ has
been proven beyond all reasonable
doubt to be all these things—to be,
and to do all that Simeon in prophecy
claimed for him, and yet we may ask,
"Do we believe in Christ, the Christ
of tho past as he believed in the Christ
of the future?"
Christ is a revealer of men's hearts.
A man's character is judged by his at-
titude toward Christ. We see in the
character of Christ absolute goodness,
love, truth, honor, purity. Therefore
to see Christ, to see truth, love, good-
ness, purity, and not to love and
choose him is to reveal a state of heart
which, like that of Gallio, "cares for
none of these things."
Simeon was satisfied when he had
seen the Christ. To see him is the
grandest sight in all the world. Wo
are often asked, "Have you seen the
sights in Rome, in Greece, in Italy?"
And if we reply in the negative, it is
hinted that we have missed a great
part of life. But there is a light more
Important to see than any material
vision, and that is, the glory of (>od
In the face of Jesus Christ. Have you
seen this sight? Have you seen the
face of Jesus? Have you seeu the

the exciting eve.fl.t3 of John Morgan,
Billy Bones, Black Dog, John Silver
and the others. Wherefore, finding
Mr. Croker in the library the next
evening, the journalist again pro-
duced his volume of Stevenson and
drew up a chair. But the one-time
Tammany chieftain lifted a protesting
nand.
"Don't read that book to me any
more," he said. "I couldn't get to
sleep last night for thinking about
those fellows."
DISFIGURED WITH CRUSTS
"Some time ago I was taken with
eczema from the top of my head to
my waist. It began with scales on my
body I suffered untold itching and
burning, and could not 6leep. I was
greatiy disfigured with scales and
crusts. My ears looked as if they had
been most cut off with a razor, and
my neck was perfectly raw. I suffered
untold agony and pain. I tried two
doctors w ho said I had eczema in Its
fullest stage, and that it could not
be cured. I then tried other rem-
edies to no avail. At last, I tried a set
of the genuine Cutlcura Remedies,
which cured me of eczema when all
else had failed, therefore I cannot
praise them too highly.
"I suffered with eczema about ten
months, but am now entirely cured,
and I believe Cutlcura Remedies are
the best skin cure there is." (Signed)
Miss Mattie J. Shaffer, R F. D. 1, Boi
8, Dancy, Miss., Oct. 27, 1910.
"I had suffered from eczema about
four years when boils began to break
out on different parts of my -body. It
started with a fine red rash. My
back was affected first, when It also
spread over my face. The itching was
almost unbearable at times. 1 tried
different soaps and salves, but nothing
seemed to help me until I began to
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
One box of them cured me entirely. I
recommended them to my sister for
her baby who was troubled with tooth
eczema, and they completely cured her
baby." (Signed) Mrs. F. L. Marber-
gL., Drehersville, Pa., Sept. 6, 1910.

ment are sold everywhere, a sample
of each, with 32-page book, will be

hours and hours the body deliberat-

the twelfth obdurately refused to
change his position. Finally a court
officer rapped at the door and inquired
as to the prospects of agreement.
"None in sight," responded the
thoroughly disgusted C. M.
"Perhaps I had better bring In
twelve suppers, then," suggested the
officer.
"No," said Thurnauer, glaring vi-
ciously at the unpersuadable member,
"bring In eleven suppers and one feed
of hay."
