^' The time had now oome when the Liord
.Tosus was to he publicly manifested uk the
hod of David and the King of Israel. Hitherto
He had refused the demands of the
multitude, who, after Ilis Galilean mira eles,
had tried 'Ho lake Him by force and
make lliin n. Icing;" but now as the end
draws near it is proper that lie should lit errilly
fulfil the announcements of ancient
prophecy, and for a brief moment, at least,
appear as the heir to David's throne and
the answer to all tlio Messianic hopes of
Israel. *
I. The Hecognition of the King. It was
strancc that the firnt to recognize Him as
Israel's King fhould he two blind bep^arx.
Thnt which the rulers of Israel, with all
their wisdom, failed to comprehend, was
discovered by poor old Bartimens and his
Diin<l companion, (.'ailing Him by His Messianic
nomc, they cried, as th? procession
pressed by, "Jesus, TIioji Son of David,
nave mercy on lis!" When .Tcsu,r heard
that no me He instantly ordered the procession
to halt, ?tnd, calling them to llim,
granted their petition like a kinur. bidding
them receivc their sight und follow Ifirn
in the way.
So still it is over true, "Thou h?6t hid
these things from the wise and prudent and
revealed them unto babes." The wisdom
of the world and even t h?? culture of theological
science have blinded men to the
vision of God, and it is the lowly and often
illiterate to whom the Holy Ghost reveals
"the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven"
."uxl the blessed hopes' of the coming once
more of our g'oriouR Iving.

. Testis was tluj Son of Havid? Witli their
inner f-rnses they felt after Him until they
found llim. It in ho still that tin* hungry
heart finds the Saviour. Reaching out in
our darkness *cnso of need, i?rot>inc j
for One v.'ho we feel can meet and satisf; |
need, we pre*-* our way toward the !
lich!. even as the li'.ind man, who, while lit
cannot discern the oli.jcets before him. can
?oe vaguely at least the glare of the ligh:
and press closer to it. Kven s:o we can
.press toward G'od, and lfe %'ill meet the
.seeking sr.ul and reveal Himself in the visoon
of light and love even Ho did to
' Hhern.
Seeker for Christ, follow the light von
.have ;;nd He will give more as yon follow
on, mid you. loo. will hear Him ray, "Receive
thy tsight, thy faith huth made thee
whftlc."
If. Tlio Tdanifestation of the Kincr. An
ncnt propilccy had foretold the coming of
the King of meekness, truth and love, and
Hit? triumphal entry into .Jerusalem was a
striking fulfillment. Zechariah especially
had literally described the scene* portrayed
in this chapter. "Kojoice greatly.
O daughter of Zion. shout. <) daughter of
feruHHle-n. heboid thy King eoineth unto
tii?"c* 11.' is just and having salvation, lowly
and riiling upon an ass and upon a colt
thf fo.il of an nss." (Zechariah 9:0).
For the lirst time in llis earthly mini.*try.
our Lord permits Himself to he home
hy fho Vieast. ef burden, which had a i ways
been recognt^d as the hearer of kings.
Hiding upon n little- colt never ridden hefore,
drajiod <fvitli the garments of Hi-' disciples
;:a they walked hesidc. and accompanied
by {.ho mighty multitude surging
up from th<J city at vhis-, the I'ausover time,

of their praise and indeed Rave it the hi"hckt

of an excited multitude, hut theirs
was "perfect praise." As usual tin' Pharisees
were ready to scorn their juvenile en-,

JAPAN'S CONSTITUTION.
Mow It Differs From the Constitutions
cf Occidental Nations.
i i
There is an lmportr.ru difference >
between the constitutions of Western
natiouu and that cf Japan. The '
former are 'ho outcome of popular
uprising's against the tyranny t.f nil- !
ers?!n other wonls, of a demand, as i
nf natural right, by the people. Con:
i quentiy, even In monarchical Europe,
constitutions ate drawn in such
urava as to lay the greatest stresr;
upon popular rltrhts, while at the
same time curtailing the power of the
sovereign.
The Japanese constitution, on tho
olher hand, emanated from (lie Emperor,
the fountainhc-ad of all pownr. |
lioforo tho people dreamod of popu- |
lar rifriits or of a Parliament, the i
Emperor had already marked out the I
