THK LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time The book of Proverbs WEH written about 1000 B.C. The din- cour»e of our Lord, from which • £ow verses are taken, ag recorded in Matthew 24, was given on Tuesday of IV-wion Week, April 4. A.D- 30. The words used from the sixth chap- tei of John were uttered by Chriit in April A.D., 29. Place - The Olivet Di.^cour.-.e was delivered on the Mount of Olive.« op- posite tu and east of Jarusalein. The words recorded in the sixth cha;>ter Of John were uttered in the syna- gogue at Capernaum. "The Poverty to which Drunken- ness leads. Proverbs 21:17; 23:20.81. Proverbs 21:17. "Tie that loveth p'easure shall be a poor man; he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich " Por the representation of wine *nfi nil as common sources of enjoy- mpnt see Prov 27:9; .ludjre- 9:9.1.1. Among the Hebrews as* imong the Greeks and Romans they wer? us- ual accompaniments of feasts. Proverbs 23:20 "Be not among wlncbibbers." That is those who drink wine to excess.

The word "temperance' has come to have reference almost en t.rely to the ma'ter of restraint In the things whi.'n .m* dnnks; we are too prone to fotjjet that it nNo in tha Bible is coahnually applied to our eating.

"Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath set over his hou.sehold, to give them their foo() in due season?" "Bles,sed Is that servant, whom his lord when he Cometh shall find so doing." "Ver- ily I say unto you, that he will set him over all that ho hath." In the second part of our Lord's Olivet Dis- course, beginning with this verse. Chnst gives three parables indicat- ing the •. sponsinilitics r(!.sting upon his owr during a period in which he as to bodily presence, would be ab- sent from hem. We should notice first that lh< Luid o.' the huuscliold is absent, but that, before he departs he has designated certain duties for his servants to perform while he is absent. The parable of our lesson is the picture of his household. "But if „hat evil servant shall say in his heart. My lord tarrieth; and shall begin to beat his fellow-ser- vants, and shall eat und drink with the drunken; The lord of that ser- vant shall come in m day when he expecteth not. and in an liuui when he knowoth not, "And shall cut hira asunder, und appoint his portion with the hypocrites; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth." We have already made brief refer- ence to the teaching if theee verses in the previous paragraph. We must never forget that the person speak- ing these terrible words was none other than the Lord Jesus Chrifst himself The final testimony of these unfaithful servants is punishment in the next life It does not say it is et- ernal, but other passages of Scrip- ture do si. inform us. The evil ser- vant had exactly the same opportun- ity that wtts given to the first, but he said within himself. My lord de- layeth his coming, and so he began to do as ha pleased. "Jesus answered them and said. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but becau.so ye ate of the loaves and were filled." The discourse of which these words are a part wa.* given the day after Christ, with five bar- ley loaves and two fishes, miracu- lotisly fed five thou.sand men on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. On the following day. a vast multitude of people, seeking Jesus, had come to Capemum thtt the discourse (vs. 26-59) was uttered. "Work not for tho food which per- isheth. but for the food which abid- oth unto eternal life, which the Son of man shall give unto you; for him the Father, even God, hath sealed." This verse i.-( peculiarly full of in- structive le.s.son3. m There is some- thing forbidden. We are not to labor exclu-sively or excessively, for the satisfa.'tion of our bodily wants, for that food which only perishes in the using, and only docs us a little tem- porary good. |2) There is something commanded. We ought to work hard and strive for that sjiiritual food â€" that supply for the wants ot our souls, whici once obtained in an everlasting possession. I,"?) There is something promised. The Son of man Jesus Chri.st. is ready to give to ev- eryone who desires to have it. that spiritual food which tndure:s forever. (4) There is something declared. The Son of man. Jesu.s Chri.st. has been designated and appointed by God the Father for this very purpose, to be the di.spenser of this spiritual food to all who desire it. 'Jesus said unto them, 1 am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and ho that beliov- eth on tne shall never thirst." Man is not able to mai.itain in full strength and life his physical body by anything which he has in him- self â€" he must receive into his body every day meat and bread from with- out. So also a man is not able to sa- tisfy the needs of his spiritual life by anything he has in himself bu' must receive this also from God, who ha.s given him spiritual food in Jesus Christ, who is the bread of life, i.e. the bread which communi- cates life, sustains and enriches it.

Bryans, assistant dean of the New York University College of Engineer- ing. "The device," says Dean Bryans, "would convert the undersides of fenders into sand-boxes with filling covers in the fender tops. By a valve-release mechanism on the con- trol panel of the car, the driver could efficiently distribute the sand. The equipment would be hidden in space that is now wasted." â€" New York Times.
