Lesson * -
By Her. William Brans. I). IX, Director Bible Coarat
i Moody Blblu Institute, Chicago.
LESSON FOR JANUARY 28
PRESENTATION IN THE TEMPLE.
LESSON TEXT-Luke 2:22-39.
MEMORY VERSES?29, 30.
GOLDEN TEXT?"For mine ey?s have
?een thy salvation, which thou hast pre
pared before the face of all peoples."?
Luke 2:30-31.
This lesson concerns th?s matter of
the presentation of the ChriBt child in
the temple forty days after his birth.
Ever since the redemption of the first
born of Israel on that dark night in
Sgypt, when the destroying angel pass
ed through the land and Bmote all the
first-born of the Egyptiaas, the first
born son of every Hebrew family be
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
I 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 priebtly service on
the payment of a certain amount of
redemption money.
Joseph and Mary bein& 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, not
only in realizing that children are the
heritage of the Lord, but also in pre
senting them in dedication publicly,
in the church, to the Lord.
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? A parent
whose child died some years ago, is
in the habit every year when the anni
versary of his child's birth arrives to
Bend a birthdhy gift to an orphan
home, just as though he would have
given it to his child were she living.
We have a wonderful description of
the work of Christ in this lesson. He
is the light of the world. Not one. but
every nation is to feel the effect of hiB
coming. On one occasion, when a
Japanese convert to Christianity was
summoned before the^magistrates and
called upon to give- a reason why he
had forsaken his national religion, he
was told that Japan had religion
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
haB not spread beyond China and Ja
pan? And if Buddhism is an all-suffl
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,
6ince 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 full satisfaction un
til he had seen the Christ child. The
Old Testament itself is a book of long
ing and expectation which does not
find satisfaction until Christ, the
Motv Tocfomont onmp 111
IUCLUC Ul V, ? ?
to the world.
The salvation of the 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 the past as he believed in the Chrigt
of the future?"
(jurist is a reveaier or men s nearis.
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 hirr 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. We
are often asked, "Have you seen the
sights in Home, ift Greece, in Italy?"
And if we reply in the negative, it is
hinted that we have missed a great
Dart of life. But there is a light more
Important to see than any material
vision, and that is, the glory of God
in the 'ace of Jesus Christ Have you
seen this sight? Have you seen the
face of Jesus? Have you seen tht
glory of God In the person of Jesus!
Have you seen In him salvation? 1;
you have not all la lost.

mittee.?Ths Taxes Amount to
About $1,660,000.
Columbia.?The estimated appro
priation for Jthe state government
for 1912 is $2,554,514.62, as compared
with $1,938,268.27 in 1911, according
to reports that have been filed with
Comptroller General Jones by the
Heads or tne various uepjii uncut? ua
the government, including the public
institutions. The estimate was pre
pared by the comptroller general as
required by law, and will be sent to
the ways and jneans committee of
the house. The income from the
state tax will approximate about $1,
650,000, and this means that the esti
mates will be trimmed down by near
ly $700,000 by the ways and means
committee before the bill is sent to
the house and senate f.or considera
tion. The statements prepared by
the comptroller general Bhows the
various amounts asked by each de
partemut.
"The state revenue," says the
comptroller general, "for 1912 form
taxes, estimated and based upon the
present assessment of $287,132,000, at
a rate of 5 3-4 mills on the dollar
would produce $1,651,000. To that
add the estimated income from
sources other than taxes of $257,800, >
and we have a total estimated reve
nue of $1,908,809.
"It will be thus seen that the ap
propriations asked for exceed the es
timated revenue of the state by $639,
706.02, and if we make all these ap
propriations it will be necessary to
increase the rate of taxation.
"In view of the prevailing low price
of cotton, the staple orop of this
state, on which the 'great mass of
tov.rwvoro 3rd pithpr flirGCtlv Or in
directly dependent, they will not be
able to stand an increased burden (tf
taxation, such as would be necessary
to meet all the appropriations asked
for by the various state officers and
heads of state institutions.
"The matter therefore requires
careful consideration at your hands."
Detective Shoots Policeman.
Greenville.?A dispatch received
here states that Policeman Irvin Hen
dricks of Easley was accidentally
shot and killed by J. R. Qreen of
Spartanburg, at present employed as
a detective by the Southern Railway.
The two men were engaged in con
versation while sitting around the
stove in the city hall at Easley, when
Detective Green leaned forward to
expectorate in a nearby cuspidor. In
doing so a pistol, which was buckled
around his breast in a leather case,
dropped out, discharging as it struck
the cement floor. The t ball struck
Policeman Hendricks in the back of
the head and ranged upward, pene
trating the brain and crushing the
skull in the top of his head.

A Hoi
An Oppressive Trust.
Before the Coffee Roasters' Association, In sea
rVnVntrn tm Thursday Thomas J- Webb,
of Chicago, charged that there is in existence a
coffee combine wnich is "the most monstrous im
position in the history of human commerce."
There is very slight exaggeration about this
statement. It comes very close to being literally
true. There is a coffee combine in Brazil, from
which country comes the bulk of the coffee used
in the United States, which is backed by the gov
ernment of Brazil and financed by it, which com-^0*
pels American consumers, as Mr. Webb said, "to
pay famine prices for coffee when no famine
exists."
The worst thing about this Is that the consum
ers of the United States have been compelled to
put up the money through which this combine,
to farther cinch them, has been made effective.
There were formerly revenue duties imposed upon
all coffee entering the United States. Those taxes
were denounced as an imposition upon the people;
as taxing the poor man's breakfast table, and the
like. The taxes were removed. Immediately ^
thereafter Brazil imposed an export duty upon^^
coffee up to the full amount of the former customs
taxes in this country. The revenue which for
merly went into the treasury of the United States
was diverted to the treasury of BraziL The poor
man's breakfast coffee continued to cost him the
same old price.
But' this was only the commencement The
"valorization" plan was evolved in BraziL
Through this plan the government, using the rev- ,
enues derived from the export duties for the pur- I
poses, takes all of the surplus crop in a season of I
large yields and holds it off the market, thus /
keeping the supply down to the demands of the I
market and permitting the planters to receive a j
much higher price than they would otherwise I
have done. j
The United States consumes more Brazilian cof
fee than does the rest of the world. We are the /
best customers of Brazil, and Brazil buys little /
from us. Now Brazil ia promoting, financing and
maintaining a trust designed, and working effect
ively for the purpose, to compel American con
sumers to pay an exorbitant price for the coffee
they use. What is the remedy??Statu* Pott lctr
