ON MEETING AN OBJECTION
“i
Every business man knows the value of being able to
sense an objection and meet it before it is advanced,
jesus knew that far better. He went one night to dine with
a prominent Pharisee. While the dinner was in progress,
a certain woman of unfortunate experience crept into the
room and kneeling down by Jesus began to bathe bis feet
with precious ointment and wipe them with her hair. Jesus
knew' what that outburst of unselfishness meant to an over
burdened spirit, and accepted the tribute with gracious dig
nity. But all the time he was perfectly well aware of the
thoughts that were passing through the self-satisfied mind
of his host.
“Ah,” said that cynical gentleman to himself, “if. he
were a prophet he would have known that this woman is a
sinner, and would have refused to let her touch him.”
He might have been tempted to put his thought into
,words, but he never had a chance. Quick as a flash Jesus
turned on him:
“Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee.”
“Teacher, say on.” It was a half concealed sneer.
“There was a man who had two debtors,” said Jesus.
“One owed him five hundred shillings and the other fifty.
Neither could pay and he forgave them both. Which of
them, do you think, will love him most?”
Simon sensed a trap, and moved cautiously.
T imagine the one who owed him the most,” said he.
“Right,” said Jesus. “Simon, seest thou this wo
man?”
Simon nodded. He began to wish the conservation
had not started.
“When I came into your house, you gave me no water
for my feet,” Jesus continued with that extraordinary
frankness which cut straight to the heart of things. “But
she has washed my feet with her tears and dried them with
her hair. You gave me no kiss, but she has not ceased to
kiss, my feet You poured none of your expensive oil on
my head, hut she has taken her precious ointment, which
she could ill-afford, and anointed me.”
The dining-room was silent; every eye was turned up
on the Teacher; the poor woman still knelt at his feet, em
barrassed that her action should have caused so much com
ment.
“She is like the debtor who owed the five hundred
shillings,” he said. “Her sins which are many are forgiv
en, for she loved much. To whom little is forgiven, the
same loves little.” And then with a glance of infinite
tenderness:
“Thy sins are forgiven,” he said to her simply.
It is easy to imagine that the conversation rather drag
ged during the remainder of the meal. Even very super
cilious and self-assured gentlemen hesitated to expose them
selves to the thrusts of a mind which could anticipate criti
cisms before they were uttered, and deal with them so
crisply.

JkSAFE!
Everyone accepts the fact that Bayer
Aspirin is the swiftest form of relief
for headaches, neuralgia, neuritis,
periodic pain, and other suffering.
If you’ve tried it, you know. But no
one need hesitate to take these
tablets because of their speed. They
are perfectly safe. They will not
depress the heart. They have no ill
effect of any kind. The rapid relief
they bring is due to the rapidity
with which they dissolve.
So, keep these tablets handy, and
keep your engagements—free from
pain or discomfort. Carry the pocket
tin for emergencies; buy the bottle
of 100 for its economy. The new
reduced price has removed the last
reason for trying any substitute for
genuine Bayer Aspirin—each tablet
stamped w»th this cross:
