If we were as fully yielded to Him as He was to the Father it would be true of us. “It is not ye that speak. but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you" (Matt. x, 20).

They did not begin to know Him. nor that He could read think or say of Him (verse 16.. They propound a question which it seems to them will bring from Him an en- snaring reply: “Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar or not?" “Shall We give. or shall We not give?” (Verse 17. Mark xii. 15.: These enemies of Christ were in a similar difficulty. but they would not cease from their purpose. The Phari- sees and Herodians unite in a scheme which they think Will surely enable them to find.0ccasion against Him, and so they come with flattering words concerning His being a teacher of truth and caring not for what people Even Daniel‘s enemies had to con- fess that he was faithful and that there was neither error nor fault in him and that it Wuuld be impossible to find occasion against him unless in some way concerning the law of his God (Dun. vi. 4. 5|.

The Pharisees were the most religious people of that day. but were mere formalists. Everything was outward to obtain praise ot men; nothing real before God. The Herodi- ans. judging from Herod. could enjoy a good talk. but. preferred the sinful pleasures of this world to things real and eternal. The Sadducees were re- ligious. but had no use for things su- pernatural. angels or spirits. and did not believe in any resurrection. None of them had any use for Jesus Christ or His doctrine. Although they could not deny His wonderful works. His teaching was to them foolish and im- practical and impossible.

Their story .goes back to the dim ages, where tradition and history mingle on the same page. In the ninth century Thassalieo, a Swab- ian. founded the castle on the'hills of Hechingen, near the Zollern heights, and 'his descendants der- ived their patronymic from its nameâ€"Hohenzollern. ‘ 'Tradition vaguely traces their origin to an ancient Roman family, the Col- annas on: their good pleasure, that mal- lions of men should take the field and thousands be shot down at their say-so ‘? ‘I'vv‘-'V -luUVI ”I "Who are time HJhein‘lgllgals, the Eapsburgs and the R-omanoffs that the Ijest of the world should wait The house iof Hohenzollern. in Germany, the house of Hapsburg in Austria and the house of‘the Romanovs in :Russia know not to- day whether 'to-m-orrow will see map of Europe cut up: know; not whether the divine right of Kings so long 'challenged by the divine right of mankind, will be placed in the discard. along with the rest of the junk of the past ’dark ages: know not what the fate of their respective dynasties .Will be. -w’- Three of the “houses” of Eurooe are being weighed in« the balances now. They are the three domin- ant ruling families, who have held power _f or centuries. In another age, in another or- der of things conquest like 1118 would have been a conquest of arms, not of dollars. It would have resulted in establishing for the conqueror the “divine right” to rule those whom he had sub- dued. °William the Conqueror, the apt son of Rollo, crossing the channel from Normandy and calm- ly breaking int-o England, was only following the illustrious ex- ample of 'his pirate father. In plain English. the Whole crew of the mediaeval rulers were robbers. A marauding crew. whether at sea or ashore. booty and loot ‘were their aims in life and they let nothing stand in their way. The man who .was strong enough to get and to hold was the man who “founded a house.” If his sons were innured to hardship, if they were mighty enough men-at-arms to keep their vassals properly in awe. if they could keep their re- tainers armed and in active ser- vice, if in a word, they were strong enough to maintain their fathers’ prestige, the houses con- tinued. If not, some other con- queror came along and set up a new “house.” ' . In another age, in another orq der of things, the pack peddler who fared up and down through 'the country laying the foundation for the house of Guggenheim, would have established a dynasty political instead .of commercial. In- jstead of copper, he Would have bartered men’s lives and property: instead of refineries, he would have established castles and duchies and strongholds; instead of placing his heirs at the heads of banks and trust companies, he?
