GOLDEN TEXT-The harvest truly la plenteous, hut the laborers are few. Fray >? therefore, the l^ord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers Into his harvest.?Matt. ?:37-3S. _ t (This exposition of the lesson is based on the narrative in Luke 5:1-11.) Already in our previous lessons we have seen Christ as the founder of the Kingdom of Heaven upon the earth. He was born a king; his baptism was in a sense the inauguration of the kir.g; the temptation, the testing of the king. Being himself thus prepared, we see hfrn starting out to recruit the first members of his king- i dom, who. in addition to being members of the kingdom themselves, should also be Instrumental in enlist- i ing others under lis uanner. In the call of these first disciples, < we recognize the essential conditions which were to underlie all subsequent , calls of dlscipleship. To discover these conditions should be the purpose of j all who teach this lesson. The ' fundamental condition, or conditions underlying entrance Into the Kingdom of God. are forever the same with each succeeding generation. "The gifts and calling of God are without change." We are told that the "crowds press- j ed upon Jesus to hear the Word of I God." The preaching of the Word of God is always a drawing card. The crowds have not wearied of the preaching of the gospel, but only of the average preacher who falls to preach the gospel. Wherever you find a man who, like Moody, Torrey, Spurgecn. and many others, preaches the Word of God, there you will find the streets full of men and women still pressing to j hear the message. Fire will always attract those who are cold, and food ! those who are hungry. So will the ' preaching of the simple gospel attract the hearts of men for whom It is prepared. The world was made for the ! . ...J ,hM world iiUU I UC IV? ?- V , All great sermons in the Bible were preached in the open air. If the petv pie will not conie to church, then let us take the church to them. If It was not beneath the dignity of Jesus Christ to hold open air meetings, it surely cannot be beneath any pretended and issumed dignity we may profess to possess. I.et some ministers who, during the hot months of the year, preach to but a corporal's guard, go out into the open air and preach to the crowds The best way to reach the masses is to go after them. Jesus requested of these men the Joan of their boats, and they at once complied with the Master's request. In other words, he asked these men to surrender their business for a little . while to him. And they did. How magnificently be repaid them is seen in the miraculous draught of fishes. No man can surrender his business to Jesus Christ without eventually being a gainer by It. He ' shall receive a hundredfold more In this life, and In the world to come life everlasting." Next, Jesus requires that these men recognize him as knowing more about their business than they do themselves. He requires theru to do what their own common sense tells them there is no use in doing. This is evident by the answer of Peter: "Lord we h3ve toiled all night and caught nothing, nevertheless," etc. The word "Lord" here probably means "shipmaster." one 6et over a boat, and i# remarkable p.b used in this connection. The word "nevertheless" Indicates surrender of their thoughts and plans to Christ. Christ required from these men the j surrender of their whole lives. They forsook their nets, and their business, and followed him. This was final and complete obed'ence. Kver after they v. ere to devote their lives to catching men. pot fish. No man can enlist tinder the ban- I ner of Christ, nor become a member of the Kingdom of Clod, who is not willing to make an absolute surrender nf Uir.ML^lf unH oil that ho has and experts to be to the Christ and his service. "So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be ray disciple." Of course. Christ may not, in fact does not t all upon us all to 'eave our daily vocation and become preachers or missionaries. . No; oltrimes he calls upon us to do what Is very much harder? to stay in business and use it for him ar.d Ins kingdom. There ran be no question, however, but that ere we can become Cr.rist's disciples there must be the complete surrender of ourselves to his absolute and authoritative control. This is the crucial test of Christianity. And it is Just at this point of unconditional snrender that many peo pie litfpiiair auu unumci iciuoc i \j comply with the terms of discipleship. Implied. yea. clearly stated, in this -all to membership In the kingdom, was was the consecution of these fishermen to the task of catching men. In some Sunday e-hools. there is kept what is called a Fishermen s Roll," on which there is recorded each Sunday the names of those who have brought in new members. It is a great work to bring others to Sunday school and to church; it is greater still to bring thetu to Jesus Christ. In the first chapter of John we have a detai'ed account of how these disciples caught their first "fish" for their "shipmaster." l*et uh first of ail he "still-fishers:" seeing to it that those in our homes and Sunday schools are caught for Christ. But let us not res; content with that. Let us try to win the outsider for Christ. No good fisherman stays in one place all the time lie moves about from place to place. The Master "went about" doing good Let us follow his example Labor. The church has always stood for the prvceVts of labor organizations and unions It is in sympathy with the basic principles of these organi- j zations. but'it is necessarily confined to the moral as opposed to the physical feaiures of the unions?Rev.

Leaves Kidneys in Weakened Condition Doctors In all parts of the country have been kept busy with the epidemic of grip which has visited so many homes. The symptoms of grip this year are very distressing and leave the system In a run down condition, particularly the kidneys which seem to suffer most, as every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neglected, as these danger signals often lead to more serious sickness, such as dreaded Bright's Disease. Local druggists report a large sale of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which so many people say soon heals and strengthens the kidneys after an attack of grip. Swamp-Root is a great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, and, being an herbal compound, has a gentle healing effect on the kidneys, which is almost immediately noticed by those who try it. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton. N. Y., offer to send a sample bottle of Swamp-Rcot. free by mail, to every sufferer who requests fc. A trial will convince any one who may be In need of it.

Transmits Postmaster General's Report Which Shows Profit in Postal ' t Department for First Time in His- | tory?Parcel Pest In Urged. Washington. Peb. 22.?A raise lr. j i Ihe rale on second-claaB mall matter is recommended in the annual report }f the postmaster general which was 'ransraltted to congress today, accompanied by a special message from the president. For the first time In the history of the department a profit Is shown for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1911. Accompanying the document war the report of the commission on sec- i ond-class mail matter appointed byjoint resolution of congress on March 4 of last year and a brief message of i the president, In which he called at- j tentlon to the principal features of the two reports. The report of the commission on second-class mail matter makes the following recommendations: 1. The rate of 2 cents a pound on copies mailed by publishers to sub?IV.O" noivs scents and as sam rui i uriD, iw ?.D pie copies, and by.newB agents to their subscribers or to other news agents. 2. The rate of 1 cent for each 4 ounces for copies mailed by other than publishers and news agents; that Is. the present transient rate. 3. The present free-in-county privilege retained, but not extended. The commission also recommended that the cent-a-copy rate for newspapers other than weeklies and for periodicals not exceeding 2 ounces in weight, and the 2-cent-a-copv rate for periodicals exceeding 2 ounces in weight, when mailed at a city letter- ! carrier office for local delivery, be abolished. As to the effect and adequacy of the proposed Increase of 1 cent a pound in postage the commission says: "Such an increase will not, in the opinion of the commission, bring distress upon the publishers of newspapers and periodicals, or spriously in- j terfere with the dissemination of useful news or information. A reasonable time should be allowed, after the rate Is fixed, before It Is put Into efTect. While the new rate will be very far from compensating the government for the carriage and handling of second-class matter. It will to some ex tent relieve the existing burden and result In a more equitable adjustment of rates." Roth the president and the postmaster general concur In the recommendations. President Taft again concurs In the recommendation of the Postmaster fleneral for tb^> adoption of a parrel post system, suggesting the inauguration of such a service on rural routes and In the city delivery service first. Hitchcock's recommendation for government ownership of the telegraph lines under the supervision of the postal service is not approvpd of by the president. Regarding this he savs: "There Is only one recommendation in which I can not agree?that is one which recommends that the telegraph lines in the i'nlted States should be made a part of the postal system and operated in conjunction with the mall system. This presents a question of government ownership of public utili ties which are now being conducted by private enterprise under franchises from the government. I believe that the true principle is that private enterprise should be permitted to carry on such public utilities under due regulation as to rates by proper authority rather than that the government should Itself conduct them. This princinle I favor because I do not think it in accordance with the best public pol- I icy thus greaily to increase the body of public servants." The report of the Postmaster General is full of statements of chaises in the organization and methods of the postal service made since the last annual report, and of tentative drafts of legislation embodying certain recommendations of the department which need legislation to carry them out. It also calls attention to the fact that the revenues for the fiscal year ended .June 30, 1911, amounted to $237,879,- , 823.00 and that the expenditures amounted to $237,660,705.48, making a surplus of $219,118.12. The report shows that the postal savings system was begun experimen- | tally in January, 1911, and that it has now been extended so as to include 7,500 ^presidential post offices, which includes practically all of the pest offices of that class. Preparations are also being made to establish the syr. tern at about 40,000 fourth-class offices The deposits in 11 months have reach ed a total of $11,000,000, distributed among 2,710 national and state banks Wonderful Experiences.
