J.—Here Is the story of a man, who for seventy-eight years, baa stared with sleepless eyes at a cheating world. Tha astounding case of Albert B. Herpin, which baffled physicians thirty years a^o,. comes to light again now with the claim of a Hungarian war veteran that he has not slept in fifteen yean. For Herpin, hale and hearty, says he has not dosed Ida eyes in sleep during his 78 years of life, and there is none to disprove It Reads Papers All Night He has sat through the long night hours, erect In his chair, devouring the day's news to while away the time othen slept. Physicians who attempted to solve his case, shrugged their shoul- den resignedly after keeping him un der observation for years. It was too much for them. He rests, he says, while hie eyes are never dosed, he relaxes in his sitting position and gains at least physical respite from hit labors of the day. But his mind is never at rest He has neter known the oblivion of sleep. Through the long round of hours each day, his conscious mind is alert An omnivorous reader of news (Herpin detests fiction), he is almost sn encyclopedia of Important events .during the last sixty years. Seven newspapers etch night cover his rest period. Puzzle to Himself. He does not just scan headlines. Column by conumn he pores over the events of the day down to the small est paragraphs, digesting the new as be goes. Herpin is is much at a loss to ac count for his strange condition as physicians. He does not deplore his lot His few attempts to sleep have succeed ed only in Irritating him. To dose his eyes brings not relaxation, but nervousness. Aside from his sleeplessness, Her pin leads a very normal existence. He earns bis livelihood as caretaker in homes of the exclusive Perdicarii Place section of Trenton. *T’m not a crank." be says laugh ingly, T like to enjoy myself in my own way.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—The Grout Commission. 1. The Empty Sepulchre (w. 1-7). L The earthquake (w. 1-4). This occurred when the glorious angel de scended from heaven to roll the stone sway from the tomb. This work of the angel was not to allow Jesus to eoeape, but tp show that the tomb was empty. Christ needed not even the help of the angel, for He came forth from the grave by His own power as the seal of His stoning work on the,... cross (Rom. 1:4). The open tomb jmd ,m ^ ss - the angel sitting upon the stone with calm dignity. Is a graphic picture of Christ's triumph over the devil, and the terror of the keepers is a sample of what all of Christ's enemies shall one day experience when He comes in glory to reign as King. 2. The angel's message to the women (w. 5-7). (1) Fear n<5t (v. 5). While the enemies had occasion to fear, these women who loved the Lord received good news irons the empty tomb. The empty tomb puts an end forever to all doubts and fears. Let every teacher endeavor to show tha greatness of the fhet that the tomb was empty, for It shows that we have a living Christ The resurrection of Christ should be the major theme of those who give out the Christian message. (2) "Come, see" (v. 6). The angel told the women that the Lord had risen sod Invited them to see th« place where He lay. The Lord made epecial effort to con vince the disci pies of the reality of Bis resurrection. He remained with them for forty days, giving them many "infallible proofs." (3) "Go quickly" (v. T). Having seen for themselves, their responsibility was to go and tell the message. Experience is necessary before testimony. They were to go quickly to the disciples with the mes sage. assured that the Lord would go before and meet them. II. The Risen Lord Meets the Women (tv. 8-10). The women quickly obeyed the com mand of the angui. and were running to bring word to the disciples. Jesus mat them on the way. Those i have an experimental knowledge Christ should go speedily to tell others of It When they saw Jasus—that He was really the Lord—they worshiped Him. III. Paying Money to Circulate a Lie (w. 11-15). that Jeans arose from the dead could not be denied even by the San hedrin. They saw only one way not of the difficulty; that was to bribe the keepers to tell a lie. They bad paid money for His betrayal—now they paid more money to circulate a lie about His resurrection. This shows the wonderful power that money has over the lives and con sciences of men. It not only Induces people to lie, but It even muzzles the mouths of soma teachers and preachers. IV. The King's Greet Commission (w. 16-20). L The royal authority (v. 18). . By virtue of His divine authority. He Issued this command to the dis ciples. In order to prepare them for the reception of this command. He declared unto them that all power In heaven and earth had been given unto Him. 2. The commission itself (vv. 19, 20). It consists of three part# (1) Go teach all nations. This is the first tnd primary business of the disciple. This command has been issued to all dis ciples by the risen ang mighty Lord. (2) Baptize them in the name of the triune God. Those who have become disciples of the Lord should receive the rite which signifies that relation ship to Him. (3) Teach them to ob serve all of Christ’s commandments (v. 20). Those who have become Christ’s disciples should be tanght conformity to His will. 3. The available power (v. 2). Those who obey Christ In carrying out this commission shall enjoy His abiding presence. News from Wiffirtou , VqP* 9 Ml* ■ ■■ I I Williston, June 14.—Mrs. T.
