SO {John sent representatives to. ask whether thes Galilean was 'the One +Who-Was To Come, or whether they { should look for another Alas for our clouded visions; and for the fogs that rise between friend and friend! Much bitterness has its root in simple misunderstanding. Consider, the heaviness of heart in which the imprisoned Baptizer sent bis inquiry, and the equal depression of spirit in which Christ must have |.received it; for of all men on earth, He prized~John's love and loyalty most, It misunderstanding could {arise between John and Jesus, how slow we should be to judge harshly | our-felfow men.

"Go | and report to John what you see and { hear," replied Jesus; "blind eyes re- | ceive sight, and cripples walk; lepers are cleansed, and.deaf ears hear; the { dead are raised to life, and the poor { have the Good News proclaimed to em." Christianity appeals to its fruits. | As Spurgeon once said, in preaching | upon Elijah's contest with the priests {of Baal, "the God that answereth by orphanages, let him bes God!" What Christ is doing in the world today, in works of ministry and mercy, are sufficient proof of His mission. The sort of spirit He and His friends are showing reveals the one way of hope | for the world | Pity The Popuiarity-Seeker, There are five phases of this pres- ent Lesson, of which three have al- ready been touched upon, and the fourth is that of the attitude of Je- sus toward public opinion. He grew scornful, and fairly sarcastic, in ar- raigning the fickleness of popular judgments. He likened them to the ¢hildishness of boys and girls at play. | John the Buptist had come as .an ascetic and an anchorite--and had | | been condemned. Jesus had come as a normal fellow of His brother men, | eating, drinking, and keeping com- pany with al] sorts of folks, and He | likewise hal been condemned. There is no pleasing the weather-vane pub- lic mind!

A féw days ago a friend, who is oné of the graduate council of a great university, was | speaking of the drinking habits of | some college students, and he com- mented, "There is this to be said: the | boys who set out to be 'good fellows,' {and who drink and carouse and do | whatever they think the crowd wants { Cone, are not the ones who have the respect of their classmates, or who | get anywhere after graduation.
