The following'artlrle from tho Norfolk Virginian Pilot puts the whole matter so clearly that We need hardly enlarge upon It at this time.

When , land, ts once registered under thiH system, the title is settled once and , tor all time, tho state being behind ? lt as guarantor, and the cost of sub sequent transfers is minimised: while the special-proceedings necessary to secure such registration ar* Mtuple and ito more expensive thur, these attaching to each and every convey- : lance under the methods now obtain ling.

Z. T. O CHRISTS TABLE TALK I .?k?> 14: 7-24. The fools!'ness of sin could be tbej title of this lesson. There are cer tain evita, that We cultivate assidu ously which are as foolish as tbey are lawless. L The folly of of pride. Verses 7-11. When Christ give the'counsels of this lesson he waa at a feast of some kind: add h? ssw certain dignitaries adroitly getting Into the seats of hon or. He -used 'these proud men to point the lesson that the wiser ebarse: would be to take the lowest seat and this -would furnish opportunity for sd van oem est ; whereas If one took the highest seat to begin on he might get Invited down: and to be invited' down was R rather mortifying ex perience. Tho Implication Is that when men see a man taking the'drat seat they want to see him advanced; There Is that In pride which defeats itself and humility In better and Sine the wiser course, for lt has a power to carry a roan far beyond his own sense of desert. If this wisdom works lt must be followed sincerely. A man must take the lower neat not to be Invited up. but because he feels lt is his. A man who takes lt. thinking that he tftl! soon be honored before all, might Pud thnt promotion day does not come quickly. *~ ? Tills passage is a fine place to con sider the hardest duties about a church, or tho community, or the fam ily or a farm, or the kingdom. They arc all great places -If voluntarily taken. The 'lowest seats' at the Christian feaaC are simply the plac?s ' of lowly B?rvle.e. That man lu any company or congregation, or. plaice who will voluntarily seek ro serve and advance men ls always thc one who will get promotion or who is most loved and honored. What promotion ls cnn be a mat ter on which we might not understand i"t?rita. A young minister wno com mences in a lowly pastorate and does his work well comes- soon to a larger and yet a larger. - This is a promo tion: and yet H is not the only of pro motion and- it may not be the best that Christ baa for the man. A young minister who'would settle in a greatly! backward region and' who would give to that region a Christlike service will find that other communities Will soon want him but-if he will stay where he ls and Change the 1er? of things he be will get-a botter promotion than if he should go to "beht?r places." He will bring bis people up and in do In;; It will make the'name ol. an apes- ' tie for himself. Jane Addams in Halt House has gained o' ?worldwide name! H. The folly of fcrlnshnes*. Verses J2-14.

Men do these things who would not think of lying tn a trade [Or* of ''playing religion' In order to make d trade; and yet what they do is nothing but 'playing haman fel lowship' for business purposes. ?How much ot the social Ufo or our : women folk ? ls taken up with con-' slderattons that are not wholly free from self seeking ls a question I -mbat turn over to them.
