in their power and added:

PLACE— Jesus In Galilee with dioclplea
John In prison In Machuerua east of the
Dead sea where probably Herod’ feast
took place
Comment and Suggestive Thought
V 14 "King Herod” Mark lor
courtesy styles him king "Heard of
Him” Heard of Jesus who was at-
tracting so much attention by His won-
drous works In Galilee "His name
was spread abroad” The apostles
were journeying through Galilee thus
multiplying Jesus’ influence and ex-
tending His fame "John tbe Baptist
the dead” Herod was at least
nominally a Sadducee and professed
to believe neither in spirits nor a res-
urrection V 15 "Others said” - Others enter-
tained various opinions about Jesus
With these they tried to calm Herod’s
troubled conscience "Elias” Elijah
''A prophet or as one” A new prophet
or as one bearing great resemblance to
the old prophets
V 17 "Herod himself “Not moved
by matters of state but for purely per-
sonal reasons "Laid hold upon John”
Arrested him “For Herodlas’ sake”
Because the crime for which John re-
proached him waa with and on ac-
count of Herodlas
V 18 "John had said unto Herod”
He had - repeatedly besought the tet-
rarch to forsake his sin undoubtedly
assuring him that even for such as
be there was forgiveness and restora-
tion from God upon true repentance
"It is not lawful for thee to have
her” He was her uncle and It was
not lawful for those so near vf kin
the marry moreover he bad a wife
and she a husband living at tbe time
V 19 "Had a quarreL" Rev Ver
"Set herself against him” That Is
she became the sworn enemy of the
Baptist She strongly “desired to kHl
him” but "could not” because she
lacked personal authority and Herod
would not order his execution
V 20 “Herod feared John” Mat-
thew says he also feared tbe people
for they counted John a great prophet
“Observed him” "Kept him safe" —
out of the reach of Herodlas’ malice
-'Heard him” Herod was a man ot
keen Intellect and It seems that Herod
often called the prisoner from the dun-
geon to the palace which was under
the same roof that he might listen to
him He “did many things” or “was
much perplexed” Perhaps he aban-
doned some sins and began the prac-
tice of some virtues
V 2L “A convenient day” A day
which brought Herodlas opportunity
for executing her purpose “Lords high
captains chief estates” The three
classes mentioned were the great men
of the court of the army and of the
province
V 22 “The daughter of Herodlas”
Salome ' "Came in and danced” In
the corrupt age of Herod a feast among
high dignitaries would be incomplete
without the coming of one or more
professional dancing-girls in dainty
costumes and with voluptuous dances
commonly accompanied by tam-
bourines or tinkling bells to entertain
men of debased instincts But for
one of high birth to enter the banquet-
ing ball was considered a great shame
hence the strong expression "herself
came In” "Pleased Herod” He fan-
cied that Salome honored him by de-
grading herself Had he been sooer
he would have felt horrified
V 23 "He aware” He confirmed bis
words by repeated oaths "Unto the
half of mv kingdom" A foolishly ex-
travagant expression commonly used
by kings but not meant to be iit-
eroi’y interpreted
V 24 “Went forth” Left the scene
of feasting to find her mother who
was In another part of the castle
"The head of John the Baptist” Tills
request Herod would be warranted in
refusing John's head was of more
value than the half of his kingdom
and under no Just law was It hts to
give ' -
V 25 "Straightway with haste” Un-
doubtedly Herodlas counseled great
haste of all parties lest the girl be-
come too horrified to proffer the re-
‘quest and lest Herod when sobered
reruse to grant It "By and by” im-
mediately "In a charger” In a plat-
ter a dish
V 26 "Exceedingly sorry” Herod’s
sorrow was probably as deep as ha
was capable of feeling but was not
as tbe sequel suows deep enougn to
cause him to refuse the inramous re-
quest “Oath’s sake” In the original
the word "oath” Is plural Indicating
that he had made the promise repeat-
edly “ "For' their sakes” Lest he
should appear to them to be fickle and
vaccinating "Reject her” Refuse to
grant her request I

XX OCEAN DEPTHS
Some of the most beautiful sights
are found in the sea — tbe coral reefs
and the sunken gardens filled witk
strange marine plants Soma marine
animals live only In the purest wai-
ter others only in the foulest water
for every condition there is a Ills te
fit 1L j
In all ocean basins bills and ridges
as well as troughs and deep holes oo-
cur and the bottom Is covered with
the ' skeletons of marina animals
changed by time Into slime and stone
Some of tbe animals of the ocean
have no eyes having no need of them
others hava a hundred eyes
The largest animal and the tiniest
animal are found In the sea In places
the sea is 30000 feet deep Its aver-
age depth- is evev 18000 feet — Tvriee
every 24 hours ths water rises and
falls At the entrance to the Bay -of
Fnndy the rise at spring tide Is no
less than 70 feet The natural power
that controls the tide Is a tremendous
one
And the plant life In the ocean Is
almost as remarkable as the animal
life Learned men have been study-
ing It tor centuries and are only be-
ginning to understand it If- you want
to be interested as no novel can In-
terest you procure s book telling la
a simple manner of the life in the
seas There are plenty of such books
wrlttten for the people rather than for
scientists
une of the worms found In the ocean
lives by swallowing sanff extracting
from It whatever animal or vegetable
food It may contain The animals
of the ocean live on each other One
animal kills its prey by means of ‘an
electric shock A fish Is known which
fishes with a sort of hook and line
and thus secures its food There Is
a phosphorescence on the sea that at
times produces a light so brilliant
tbat at night one may read by 1L
Tit's Is produced by millions of living
things
