eunuch asked a question that went right to the heart of tho nlaster of whom spcaketh tho prophet this of himself or of some other man it is always well to know exactly of whdm any scripture speaks but there is no passage where this ques tion i more vital than in isaiah 53 if it refers to the messiah then be yond tho possibility of honest- ques tlon jesus of nazareth was the pre dicted messiah and it docs refer to the messiah and to jesus infldels and rationalists have labored hard to ln- vont somo other interpretation but every attempt has ended in utter fall- ure the most plausible theory that they have advanced is that it refers to suffering israel but this theory goes all to pieces to the rock that the sufferer is represented as suffering for the sins of others than himself and tho others for whoso sins he is suffer ing are my people lo israel isa- s fl fvld thn not be israel ono can begin at al most any scripture and preach jeauv for jesus is tho central subjeat of all

ho would have thought of a scoro of things that would hlndor his being baptized but he was not mere ly in pretense but in reality an honest inquirer so when he found tho truth ho threw difficulties to tho winds and obeyed it philip does no hesitate but immediately baptizes him philips work is done and the spirit takes him away seemingly he is caught awuy as by a hurricane c f 8 ki 2 lfl the eunuch

ceive jesus it is clear from this story that one can learn and accept alt one needs to know about jesus in a few hours this ethlopion treasurer had never heard of jesus before and yet us the result of this ono conversation about him he gains such a complete knowledge of him that ho is fit to be baptized and to be sent on his way rejoicing to found n church in ethiopia and too before n single gospel had boon written which ho would carry with him to gain further instruction great indeed is the simplicity of tho way cf life in christ jesus philip on hla part makes his way from city to city

tea is superior in flavour to a large rough leaf in reality this is hot of necessity the case the altitude at which ttite tea plant grows determines the amount of essential oil and alkaloid theine in the leaf the essential oil gives tea its flavour the theine contributes the stimulating value the only way to insure always re ceiving a uniform quality is to insist upon a skilfully blended and
