Lesson (X.?Second Quarter, For May 3r,1908. THE INTERNATIONAL SZRIES. .Text of the Lesson, John xx, 1-1P.. Memory Verses, 15, 1C?Co!t:n Text. Rev. 1-18?Commentary Prepared uy Rev. D. M. Stearns. [Copyright, 1SOS, by. American Press Association. 1 We-should certainly be gra:er.:i for three resurrection lessons in ..succes sion, but even thirty such would do u.' no-goodT If we do not see ourselves as crucified with Him and risen with Him and our life hid with Christ In ?God,, that so our a Sections may be set on things above and our hearts upon the appearing "with L'lm in ^lory (Co:. Iii, 1-4). The mo:e fully we are grasp . ed by the groat truth of His resurrec '. tion the uiure earnestly will we pray the prayer "that I may know Him and. the' power of His resurrection" (Phil. Iii, 10, 11), for unless our re ception of B?m as the one crucified and risen for us and our intimate ac \ quaintance-with Him as the ascended Christ our great High Priest le?d to a reproduction of His life in us He is not having the right, of way in our lives, as He desires to have.. As His ?whole life was covered by the one word "submission," so most ours be. I "Submit to God. Resist the deviL" That there is no salvation, no for giveness of sins, no gospel to preach, If Christ be not risen is fully set. forth in I Cor. xv. The emphasis given to It by the apostles in their preaching Is Been hi such passages as Acts iL 24, 32; ill, 15, 26; iv; 10; v, 30; xlL 23, 33, etc. At His death the sun was dark ened, the earth did quake, the rocks rent, the graves were opened, and all nature seemed to groan in abhorrence of such a deed; but as we saw in the last lesson, the hardened* heart of sin ful man could scoff at and lerlde Him who was suffering for the sins of those very men.. He died, the Jost for the unjust His. body was laid in Joseph's new tomb by the kind hands v of two secret, disciples, who in that hour of emergency* became bold for .. Him. His enemies remembered that , He had said that He would rise again the third day, and so with Pilate's ap proval they made the tomb as sure as they could, sealing the stone and set ting a watch (Matt xxv?, 62-G6). To mere , human eyes it looked as if the devil had the victory and the impostor, as the scribes and Pharisees thought had been finally disposed of. But at all man's thoughts and purposes "He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall have them in derision" (PS. li, 4). . , . . At. the appointed time on the third day He came forth victorious over sin and death and the grave, and He . showed Himself alire by many infalll .ble-proofs during forty days, speaking of the things pertaining to the king dom of God (Acts I, 3). There is no . topic more plain in.Scripture and yet less understood by preachers generally and, of. course, by the majority who listen to them than the kingdom of God or of heaven, which our Lord Himself described as the will of God done on earth as in hraven. It Is de scribed as including all the I nations upon earth, all kings bowing flown to Jesus as King of kings and all the nations worshiping Him as the Mes siah of Israel, they having become a righteous nation at His appearing in glory and all nations blessed through them. Then we who now accept Him and serve Him and fo.-'ow Him shall in our resurrection bodies reign with Him in His kingdom. Inasmuch as our mortal bodies shall be made like unto His glorious body, for we shall " be like Him (Phil, ill, 21; I John ill, 2), , lt.becomes to us a matter of the great est possible Interest to note the pow ers and the nature of His resurrection body. Our special lesson to day, al though it mentions only one of His appearances, really covers four?that to Mary Magdalene, to the other wom en, to Simon Peter and to the two who walked to Emmaus. We have caileQ attention to the fact of there being no redemption apart from His resurrec tion, but redemption will be found to include our bodies also at the resurrec tion of the just (I Cor. xv, 51). Al though He forbade Mary to touch Him because, as He said, He was then on His way to His Father in His risen body, He allowed the other women to hold Him by the feet and to worship Him (Matt xxvili, 9); therefore the resurrection body was a real, tangible, material body, as we shall see more fully in the two succeeding lessons. We gather nothing of the nature of that body from His appearing to Pe ter, for we have only the record of the fact (Luke xxiv, 34), but from His ap pearance to the two who walked to Emmaus we learn that He walked as they did and sat at meat with them in the house and took bread and blessed and brake it. Then He did something which they in their mortal bodies cocld not do?He vanished out of their sight. This we shall also be able to do when we have bodies like His. One prominent truth In connection with His resurrection talks is that we grieve Him greatly when we fail to be lieve what is written concerning Him. The angels said to the women, "He is risen, as He said," and He Himself told the two men on the way to Em maus that they were foolish not to be lieve all that the prophets had written of Him, whlcb things He expounded unto them. It is written lu our lesson concerning Peter and Johu that they knew not the Scripture concerning His resurrection (verse 9). Fires Jail and Go's Long Sentence.

PRAYED FOR A HUSBAND. Aged Bride and Groom Declare "God Brought Them Together." ' The Holiness mission, in Kansas City, is the center for many surpris es, but none was more so than when Julia Henrietta Hase, who is known affectionately as "God's little wo man," arose in the meeting and said: "For 13 years I lived with a drunk en brute I called husband. Twice he- turned the garden hose on me. Many times he made me .sleep on the floor at the foot of the bed with his dogs. At last he died. "That was ten years ago, and for ten years I prayed for a husband who would please me and the Lord. Five months a^o I met Job Lyon in this very mission and God's voice told me he was the man for me." Here is the Rev. Job H. Lyon's story: "Five months ago I was called up on to preach in the mission. God was with me that night and I saved live souls. But all through my ser mon something kept pulling me to look at the little gray-haired woman, who sat beside the organist. When ever I looked at her a thrill shot through me and she shouted, 'Amen, brother' , ? "She was Sister Hase, whom I shall we 1 in the pulpit of the Ameri can Army barracks, at Missouri and Grand avenues. "Was it any trouble to woo and win her? No, for the Lord led me every step of the way. I met her after, the service and saw the love light in her eyes and she saw the light in mine. It is God's will that, we should wed." The bride is past 60 and the groom will never'see 70. They will spend their honeymoon and the re mainder of their days in Louisiana. Mo. * WHOLESALE EXECUTIONS: Russia Authorities Hanged Twenty Two Men at Kersan. A dispatch from Kersau, Russia, says a wholesale execution of peas took place there Friday, when the authorities hanged twenty-two men who took part in the agrarian dis orders in the neighborhood of Eka terinoslay. The men belonged tb an association which was sworn to.drive out the proprietors of landed estates. At the time of the rioting the peas ants drove the land owners from their homes and burned their houses. Many were rendered homeless and great stretches of the country were made desolate. * DRINKS CHLOROFORM. Hopkins School Board MemberThinks It Is Beer.

W. Ray's buggy, in to a bottle, mistaking and drinking it for whiskey. McKensie was taken violently ill and fell in a state of coma. He was considered out of danger Saturday morning. GEO S.

If rhere ir a const :nt sn-ell of b;:rn ing when cooking i> going or. exam!::* the burners. 'i.:ey .:re piw. bly filled witb sediment from ?boil over*;*1 Thlj esp;'-'ially applies 10 the bousc.vife who a kitchen is wore or- 'les: dark, for unless mat is ;ru unn^ttr.dy light place it is -lifficult to see sufficiently well to keep tbe burners perfectly Clean, says i: orgetim-not. For the woman w :ose trau hies arise from the ouur of cooking the remedy lies in having a small pipe between tbe range and the chimney to carry off the odorous gases. A large bowl of water placed near will also help to prevent odors of cooking penetrating the house. The smell of gas when a rubber tube is used?no leak being apparent?is usually caused by the tube itself hav ing become saturated witb gas. New tubing is the only remedy. The lighting of the burners is a very simple matter If properly understood. Turn on tbe gas for six seconds before applying the match. This permits the air to escape from the pipe and makefe the burner show a clear blue flame from the first If a white Qame ap pears on first lighting, turn off tbe gas immediately and try again. The dull, roaring sound means the gas flame has leaped back Inside the supply pipe. When having the gas range put in be sure to see that *' supply pipe is large enough to allow sufficient gas to enable all the burners to be used at the same time. This is very neces sary. It Is annoying to discover yon can't boll two kettles when the oven Is in use. See also that the oven is large and commodious and that there Is plenty of room on the top for boiling, frying, etc. It is poor economy to use a gas range that Is too small. On the other band, should your family be small and large joints things unknown don't have a huge oven. It is the oven, with its many burners, which makes gas stove cooking expen sive. For this reason think out your meals carefully and bake as many things as possible at the same time. Custards, for Instance, if small will cook when tbe gas has been turned out and fruit, etc., may be stewed in earthenware Jars while tbe joint is cooking. How to Check Perspirrig of Hands. Rubbing the bands witb pure cam phor will sometimes arrest perspira tion on the parts treated. In nearly all cases the perspiration is decreased. Some advocate that the skin be first washed witb soap and water. When this is done, it is necessary to be very thorough ha rinsing, as tbe least trace of soap would be acted on by the cam phor and would result in a sticky mess that could not be removed from the skin without difficulty. Camphor has been applied to the entire body with the view of lessening a too copious general perspiration. It cannot be too emphatically stated that by perspiring we get rid of poisons and that any thing approaching to au arrest of per spiration Is injurious to the health. And camphor Is in itself deadly to the nervous system. It Is quite permissible to use the drug for the hands and for a limited period. Quite often three or four applications so improve matters that iu the further treatment of the case its occasional use suffices. How to Make Cut Leathar Articles. As every one knows, tbe ready made cut leather articles are beyond the in dulgence of the woman of modest purse. Yet if she Is even moderately clever handed and is willing to give of her time and labor she may gratify her desires very inexpensively. Whether It is a mat a pillow top, a book cover, a belt or any other of the many arti cles to which this form of decoration is applied tbe method is tbe same. Cut the leather of the desired shape and size. Then trace the design on It and with a pair of sharp pointed scissors cut it out, following the lines of the tracing accurately and rounding out the corners carefully. Cut leather ar ticles, to show to advantage, should be lined with silk, velvet or satin of a harmonizing color. The' average skin is about 30 by 3G inches and if it is cut economically will make several ar ticles. How to Keep the House Neat. To keep a house In a neat condition select two unused cupboards, one on each floor. Into these cupboards any thing which was out of place, from kitchen utensils to personal articles, can be put by any member of tbe fam ily. Nothing ougbt to be taken out of the cupboard until the next Saturday unless a fine is paid as a forfeit Ev ery Saturday the cupboards should be cleaned out and the various articles returned to their owners and proper places. How to Prepare a Chicken Dinner. Cut up a nice yellow chicken, cook until tender, have plenty of gravy, thicken witb flour and an egg stirred together. Make a pan of nice baking powder biscuits, bake them, turn chicken and gravy In tbe biscuit pan, let tbe biscuits soak the gravy. Serve in the pan with a napkin wrapped around it. How to Relieve Choking. To relieve choking break an egg In a cup and give it to the distressed one to swallow. Tbe white of the egg seems to catch around the obstacle and remove it. If one egg does not answer the purpose try another. Tbe white is all that is necessary to use. How to Clean Tan Leather. Tin leather may be cleaned effec tively with ether. Tan suede may be cleaned with s'alo breadcrumbs. The bread should be one or two days old rnd I hould be rubbed on the suede. Pos*. Cards at ? .us' Book Store. BEAD OVER THE LIST.
