Sunday School. Commentary.â€"1. Demetrius causâ€" ing a tumult (vs. #%â€"27) Demetrius was a leading spirit among the Ephesian shrineâ€"makers, and may bavre been a wholesale‘ dealer, exeâ€" cuting orders for the shrines and ‘"employing artisans who received lucrative wages for their labor." The preaching of Paul, the growth of the church and the advancing civilization of that time were makâ€" ing inroads upon idol worship, and the sale of the shrines was decreasâ€" ing. These shrines were made of wood or metal and were little imâ€" ages or models of the temple of Diâ€" ana, containing an image of the goddess. They were sold to the people of Ephesus ard to the many strangers who visited the city, and were also sent to distant cities for sale. Demetrius collected all the workmen who were connected with his business, and very artfully aroused their passions. In his speech he declared that their craft _ or trade _ was in danger of being brought into disrepute, _ and then unwittingly paid a glowing tribute to the apostle Paul and the effectiveness of the gospel (vs. 26,27). NTERNATIONAL LESSON NO. XI. > MARCH 15, 1903. II. Paul‘s companions seized (vs. 28â€"32). The address of Demetrius was effective, The men to whose worldly interests he had appealed responded with loud cries, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians." The deâ€" aign of this clamor was to raise A& persecution against Paul, and thus serve their own interests. 29. Confusionâ€"All the people rushâ€" ed to the theatre, in which public meetings were often held. As the apostle himsel{, at the moment, could not be found, his attendants were violently dragged along by the multitude.â€"Lange. _ Gaius.â€"He had lived at Corinth and had entertainâ€" ed Paul at his house (I.

He no doubt hoped to be able to quell the outâ€" break. ~"Suffered _ him notâ€"His life was too precious to be thus risked. It appears that Paul listened to the entreaties of the disciples en this occasion; at other cim=â€"s he did not (Acts xxi. 10â€"14). 31. The chief of Asiaâ€"The original word is Asiarchs. "These were ten men, annually elected from the most influential in the province, to conduct the sacrificial worship, and to preâ€" side over the games, to provide the necessary expenses, and to see that due order was maintained. 32.

The uproar increasing (vs. 83, 34). 33. drew Alexanderâ€""He was probably an unconverted Jew. It may have been the case that the Jews wished Alexander, who was, perhaps, an experienced public orator, to speak in their behalf, and thus transâ€" fer the bame from themselves to the Christians. But when he attempted to speak the people perceived he was a Jew, and would not permit him to utter a word." 34. A Jewâ€"There was a â€" general prejudice against the Jews. They were disposed to charge the whole difficulty upon the Jews, estceming Christians to be but a sect of the Jews. They were, therefore, indigâ€" nant and excited, and indiscriminate in their wrath and unwilling to listen to any defense.â€"Barnes.

Paul‘s sojourn and labors at Epheâ€" sus during his long stay had been by no means fruitiess. Some who many years before had been bapâ€" tized "unto Johr‘s baptism," were through the instruction of . Paul baptized with the Holy Ghost, "and spake with tongues and prophesied." His preaching in the synagogue was interrupted because of the hardenâ€" ing of the hearts of many of his hearers, and a place outside was secured for the preaching of the gospel. This continued until the peoâ€" ple, both Jews and Greeks, in all that region, "heard the word of the Lord." Miracles accompanied the ministry of the apostle, and some secing them «were constrained . to attept to secure gain by using the name of Christ in their incantations to drive out evil spirits. These perâ€" sons had no interest in the system of Christianity any further than to make gain out of it, if possible, and in this they failed, for they could not control the evil spirits, but on the contrary they themselves had to flee before the enraged evil spirits. human gouls. Do not _ needlessly rush into danger. PRACTICAL SURVEY. An occupation â€" endangered. Bible religion toâ€"day does not mix _ up with worldiness and spiritual death, nor would Christianity at Ephesus harmonise with idolatry. Those who became followers of Christ had no further use for the images of Diana. And because this was ore of the imâ€" portant centres of this worship many workmen were engaged in manufacturing the silver represenâ€" tation of the goddess. She was worâ€" shipped as the mother and nourishâ€" er of all things, and as such inâ€" spired the cry, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians." If Paul‘s preaching had not been pointed and unmistakâ€" able, Demetrius would have had no ground for fear, but the preacher went straight to the sin and reâ€" buked it, and as a resuit the silâ€" versmith saw that there would be much less demand for the shrines. Went On Crutches. Wild opposition â€" aroused. A very few people thoroughly stirred and actively engaged in a popular cause will arouse intense excitement. The {ire was here and the inflammable material was at hand, and when brought in coptact the riot was on. The situation was, in a sense,ridiecuâ€" [ous. Some were crying one thing and some another, and only a small portion knew why they were there. O hbitter wind toward the sunset blowing, What of the dales toâ€"night ? In yonder gray old hall what fires are ‘glowing, What ring of festal light? _ _Munyon's Cold Cure prevents pneumonia, _â€"The riot quelled. Civil authority steps in at an opportune time in the person of the town clerk, and with a few words of diplomacy and wisâ€" dom succeeds in averting serious difficulty. We should be thankful for wholesome laws and officers who will execute them. In this case it is very probables that the Christians would have sulfered much had not the wild uproar been silenced as speedily as it was. God spares His workmen so long as He has work for them to do. | O wind of twilight, was there no word uttered, No sound of joy or wail?

A woman sharply reproved her young son the other day for â€" remaining covered while ascending. "Take off your hat," said the matron ; "don‘t you know that there are women in the elevator? Ihave told you about that many times." " But Ididn‘t have to take off my hat in the hall, and there were woâ€" men there," protestod the boy. *3 don‘t see any difference between the hall and the clevator." The man who hbad an office on the fourteenth floor turned around to look at the woman, but he didn‘t take off his hat. "‘That kid has more sense than a great many men Iknow," said the man from floor fourteen to his neighâ€" bor of the floor above. *"This elevator hatâ€"lifting habit is the worst kind of a farce." " You take off your hat," she cried, and the hat came off. C "I think it ‘s a nice little courâ€" tesy to show to the women," said the other man, "espocially when yow are out of the business district." "Take off your hat as much as you please," said the man who starlâ€" ed the discussion. "I1 have nothing against that ; but for heaven‘s sake be consistent about it. You walk through a long hall with a woman and koep your hat on. ‘The minute you get into the elevator cage it comes of". You get out with her on some uppor floor and on goes the hat. Now, if you should ilake off your nat in an elevator youw should not wear it when walking in the halls. As for me, I find some other way of showing women that I appreciate their presence, some way that doesn‘t involve a cold in the head." [ s The men who run elevators in hotels and © apartment houses say that the practice of hatâ€"lifting Is increasing. _ They â€" have noticed, though, that in most cases the hat onty remains off the head when the mon aAre actually in the car.
