An Offense For Which a French Sol- dier Had to Die. By deliberately insulting a superior officer at a court martial a French soldier at Lille incurred the death pen- alty. The incident is a deplorable one. The fact that the oliicers had to con- demn the man is likewise painful. but the military regulations were plain and left no alternative. A dragoon in one of the regiments at Lille was being tried before a court martial. Another dragoou of the same regiment. who was undergoing arrest for some other fault, was summoned as a Witness. When this dragoon en- tered the room of the court martial he was asked by the presiding colonel to take 03 his cap. The man took this in bad part and flung his cap at the colo- nel, following it up with a storm of abusive language. When he had finished, the colonel, out of sheer good nature, asked him to reflect and express regret for his ac- tion, which he was willing to look upon as a momentary outburst of tem- per. The dragoon merely repeated his insults. The court martial immediate- ly deliberated and at the end of a quarter of an hour gave judgment condemning the dragoon to death.â€" Boston Transcript. Book Without Errata. A London publisher once determined to publish at least one book which should be faultless in the matter of er- rata. He had the proofs corrected by his own proofreaders with the greatest care until they had exhausted their skill and patience and assured him that there were no longer any errors to be eliminated. Taking duplicate 'proofs of the last revise; he sent them to the universities and other large pub- lishing houses, ofiering large money prizes for each error discovered. A few errors only were found, and after ev- ery one had a chance to detect any ad- ditional errors the plates were made, the book printed, expensively bound and sold as an absolutely perfect book and unique in all literature. For a long time this was conceded but six or eight months after its publication a letter called the publisher’s attention to an error in a certain line and page. Later a second was announced, and before the first year had elapsed some four or five errors had been reportedâ€"â€" Charles Winslow Hall, in National Magazine. Natural Turkish Baths. Preston, Ont. about seventy miles from Toronto, enjoys natural Turkish baths. Near the town is a lake the waters of which are impregnated with sulphur and other chemical properties. The lake is government property. and the cost to those availing themselves of its virtues is merely nominal, about Sixpence being sufficient to remunerate the services of the halfbreeds prepar- ing the bath. This is taken in what is locally call- ed a “sweat lodge.” The lodge is made by digging a hole four feet deep, lin- ing it 'with small bowlders and cover- ing it with an air proof tent. A fire is then built in the hole and kept burn- ing until the stones age thoroughly heated. Water from the lake is sprin- kled on the hot stones, and a steam arises which is laden with medicinal propertiesâ€"London Graphic. Nature. “We say that nature is blind,” says John Burroughs in the Atlantic. “but she has no need of eyes, she tries all courses. She has infinite time, infinite power, infinite space. and so far as our feeble minds can see her delight is to play this game of blind man’s bud over and over to all eternity. Her creatures get life and the joy and pain that life brings.

Memory Verses, 37, 38 or 40â€"Golden Text, I Tim, i, 15, R. V.-â€"Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. This anointing of Jesus by a penitent woman is recorded only by Luke. There is another anointing later in His ministry which is recorded by Mat: l thew. Mark and John. but not by ! > Luke. That was at Bethany. and; Mary, the sister of Martha, anointed ‘ Him for his burial. This was probably { at Nain, and the name of the womanis '5 not given. Both anoiniings were in the houses of men called Simon, but i the one is called Simon the Pharisee 3 ‘ and the other Simon the leper. In to- day’s lesson the woman washed His 3 feet with penitential tears. wiped them '. with her hair, kissed them and anoint- , led them. At Bethany Mary anointed 3 His head as well as His feet. but there i is no record of her washing them. i ‘They are manifestly two wholly dif- l ferent incidents at different times and in different places. but Jesus Christ Himself is the center in each as He is 'in all the Bible, and everywhere and at i ' all times revealing God the Father. In I . our lesson He is in the house of one a l l p ._ 1-5: stator I who knew Him not nor treated Him 'A with common courtesy, as we learn . from the words of Jesus in verses 44- 'i . 45. “Thou gavest me no water for my t feet; thou gavest me no kiss; my head ! with oil thou didst not anoint.” At ! Bethany He was in the nouse of those who loved him. This Pharisee reminds us of the one in chapter xviii. 11, 12, . and in verse 30 of our lesson chapter we ' read that “the Pharisees and lawyers ‘ rejected the counsel of God against ‘ themselves." In chapter xvi, 14, it is said that the Pharisees derided Him and 5 His teaching. He went wherever He VVVVâ€"IV could do good and heal a sin sick soul . or a diseased body. never thinking of Himself or of His unkind treatment by others. He did not hesitate to touch ) the world in any form for its good. but He was as separate from it as light from darkness. He came to save sin- ' hers, to seek and to save the lost. and, inasmuch as He Himself said, “There Is joy in the presence of the angels of ; God over one sinner that repenteth" I (Luke xv, 20). He was no doubt full of l joy when He found any one like this ' J woman. or the woman of Samaria. or } : Nicodemus. or Zaccheus. or the peni- - ' tent thief. willing to be saved. Per- . - haps she had heard His “Come unto 1 me" or His words to another, “Daugh- I ter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath I'UEU l l .. made thee whole” (Matt. xi, 28; ix. 22). s Somehow she had heard and believed 3 and had wasted her opportunity to thank Him. Now it had come within her reach. and she hastened to do all ~' that was in her heart It mattered not E: to her that the house was that of E Simon the Pharisee; she was not think- v ing of either Simon or his house. but I of just one person who had made her “j blind to all but Himself. She knew :1 her sin better than Simon did. and so e did He to whom she had now come. ‘3 How unusual such tears and such de- : votion. and how refreshing all must L; have been to Him. She washed His " feet with her tests, but He had washed " her soul by His precious blood, soon to be shed for her. See her humility, at His feet behind Him, see her contri- Etion, weeping over His feet and think- I ing how her own had wandered. Some ’one has said that the essence of her ‘heart was distilled to bathe His feet J and the glory of her head unbound to furnish Him with a towel. Had she {kingdoms to give they would have i been laid at His feet. but she did her 'best. and He accepted. She did not I‘ h r I ll 51 l :f L! send by another. She rendered per- sonal gratitude. She was so occupied 3 with Him that Simon’s frowns were 1 nothing to her. There is no record of a .1, word she uttered; but, oh. how the tears. the disheveled hair. the precious ointment, did talk for her! She had no 3f'thought of calling any one’s attention f.) to her; she cared for no one’s opinion; 5 she was endeavoring to thank Him. He accepted her gratitude, He looked at her, He took her part, He spoke to 8"her and said to her, “Thy sins are for- d azgpeace” (verses 48. 50). Her name we Cgiltnow not, but it is written in heaven e(Luke x. 20). May the joy of sins for- given be a reality to us and a whole 75 l souled devotion to Him be seen in our SUNIAY Lesson Xll.â€"Second Quarter, For June 23, 1912. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. daily lives. Simon thought that he knew her, but that Jesus did not know her, whereas Jesus knew both of them as they did not know themselves. He would have saved Simon as readily as He did the woman if Simon had con- fessed himself a sinner, but there is neither salvation nor a Saviour for self righteous people. He came not to call the righteous. those who think they are righteous, but for all who know themselves sinners and bankrupt there is salvation. many who are called Trains leave Durham at 2.43 p._m.
