ifpr Go wa‘lking. Wild roses invite and the fields are fair. Foliage has come to the full of its luxuriance, the full of its heavy green. Country roads catch the smell of new cut hay, meadows are spread with the eolors which richen from now until the hard and wrinkled hand of Noâ€" vember wipes them out. The wild sunflower is coming up, sumac is starting its panicles, the scarlet tanager is calling, the wood thrush is singing of a morning and of an evening. . Nests are full of youngâ€" sters. Go walking. NOTES AND COMMENT S Motoring is good, but walking is better. It has eyesight and ears, is observant of details, is on intiâ€" mate terms with the outdoors, is not casual. The walker is in the quick of things and the thick of things,. He does not take in great expanses cursorily, but small stretches carefully. He can see a bird in the sky and a blossom on the thorn. He is pimping fresh air into his lungs and getting vigor into his legs. His companion is cheerfulâ€" ness, his patron is good health. He climbs a hill and sees the outâ€" stretching valley ; he enters a wood and smells its odors and hears its songs. He sees the aisles of the sunlight and he finds the wood fern ; he hears the cat bird mocking him ; he sees the flash of the timid carâ€" dinal; he stirs up rabbits and is scolded by squirrels. He goes happily along even the dusty roads; he is tanned by sun and wind ; he rests under the oak; he finds wild strawberries. Go walking. It‘s not too hot and even the heat of a road in July and the eold of a road in January are not too heroic for the endurance of one who has walked himself into the hard fibres of health. And so, go walking. 4 > Sir Frederick Treves, a noted British surgeon, said recently that hard work accounts for more than brilliancy. If he had to submit to a major operation, he added, he would choose a careful, hard workâ€" er rather than a brilliant surgeon. These remarks have excited some eontroversy, but, after all, do they contain any real «lisparageâ€" ment of brilliancy 1 Brilliancy, like genius, is an accident. It is born, not made. The world would be a dull, flat plane intellectually if it did not throw up brilliant people. Hard work would never have given them connects and coImn| ceived in "flashes Recent Discoveries Will Be Picturâ€" ed in London.

Hard ta, _ assimilates iant hypothesis, letos truths perâ€" When all parts of the brain work properly together, our consciousâ€" ness of what is going on in the world round us is an orderly one ; things are, as the doctors say, ‘‘properly coordinated.‘" But if that coâ€"ordination is disturbed, the consciousness gets muddled, things lose their relation to one another, and everything becomes topsyâ€"turâ€" vy. That condition is called deliâ€" rium, from the Latin word for crazy and it is not a disease in itself, but a symptom that may complicate .many diseases. It may accompany some grave brain trouble, such as abscess Oor. tumor, and it is seen in many forms of insanity. In the form of deli rium tremens, it follows acute poisâ€" oning by alcohol. Then there are deliriums that complicate such acute infectious diseases as typhoid fever, pneumonia, diphtheria, and scarlet fever. Moreover, delirium is often produced by poisons in the system ; not only by poisons taken into the system, but by poisons formed by the system itself, as in various kidney diseases, in which the body loses its usual power to eliminate its injurious products or fo counteract them _ chemically. There is also the delirium of colâ€" lapse, which is seen in the later stages of starvation or of extreme } exhaustion. l Sometimes the habit of waking in the middle of the night can be traced to the wrong sort of supuer, or to tea or coffee or tobacco. Old people do not like to give up the habits of a lifetime, and it is not wise to change those habits sudâ€" denly. But they can be gradually modified. Occasionally it is an exâ€" cellent thing to give a little stimuâ€" lant in hot water just before going , to bed. In cases where the strength is seriously impaired, it should be lgiven after the person is actually in bed. Poor circulation is a freâ€" quent cause of restless sleep. That can be helped by wearing warm lamb‘s wool socks or by sleeping with warm water bottles. The cause that underlies a case of delirium must first be found, beâ€" cause the treatment will vary in accordance with it. Few of us are called on to deal with delirium treâ€" mens or with the delirium of starâ€" vation, or with that terrible form known as acute delirious mania, which generally ends in death. But the delirium that accompanies tyâ€" phoid fever, pneumonia, or the acute infectious fevers of childhood is of common occurrence, and it is well to know that much can be done to prevent it, or to bring reâ€" lief after it has begun. Sedative treatment, such as a warm bath with cold applications to the head, will often ward off an attack; but when there is great prostration of strength, stimulation is usually neâ€" cessary. Delirium is always exâ€" hausting; see that the : patient‘s strength is kept up as far as posâ€" sible. And never leave a delirious patient alone, even for a minute. There are too many cases of sick people falling from open windows. We are all of us eager to make the last years of those who are near and dear to us as happy and comâ€" fortable as possible. Old age, even when the health remains good, brings certain obvious disabilities. As the old person has to give up one activity after another, the days grow longer and more barren, especially for those who find it difâ€" ficult to sleep more than four or five hours a night. The ennui of the aged is a pitiful thing. But mugh can be done to alleviate it. 1i the digestion is disturbed, esâ€" pecially at night, try the slow sipâ€" ping of a glass of warm water with a little bicarbonate of soda dissolyâ€" ed in it. Old people often drift into the habit of taking no exereise of any kind ; that is a mistake. Only those who take a little exercise every day can keep in a reasonable condition of health. If the weather is bad, a few minutes‘ gentle exerâ€" cise several times a day will help to maintain health and prevent the stiffening of the muscles. Some very old people are afraid of an open window. To nag them about the necessity of ventilation usually does more harm than good, but as they move from one room to another during the day it is generâ€" ally possible to give a thorough airâ€" ing to the room they have just left. The clothing of old people should be light, but warm, and always loose. Daily, but not prolonged, massage is useful ; is occupies the attention of the aged; it rests them, and at the same time gives them â€" gentle â€" exercise.â€"Youth‘s Companion.

Golden Verses 32. ‘And they were on the way, going up to Jerusalemâ€"The greater number of lesson passages we have studied thus far this year deal with incidents which occurred and lessons which were given durâ€" ing Christ‘s last journey from Galiâ€" lee to Jerusalem. The route was circuitous and doubtless occupied several months. Jesus was going before them : and they were amazedâ€"Jesus mingled so freely with his disciples that on this occasion, when he walked apart from them and did not communicate his thoughts, they were surprised and were unable to explain his manner. No doubt his mind was occupied â€"with ~things which he knew they could not clearly underâ€" stand, and with which they would probably .not be in sympathy. _ They that followed were afraidâ€" Others of the company, besides the disciples, were awed by Jesus‘s demeanor, and though they followâ€" ed him, they did it with fear. He took again the twelveâ€"Becomâ€" ing aware of the effect on the disciâ€" ples produced by the strangeness of his manner, Jesus again joined the company of the disciples and began to share with them his thoughts reâ€" garding the crisis awaiting them at Jerusalem. Matthew says that he took the disciples apart, that is,‘ away from the rest of the followers. 33. This is the third time that Jesus had announced his passion to the disciples. The details as given here and in verse 34 correspond so elosely to the events which later took place, that it is possible the writer recorded his later clear unâ€" derstanding of the import of what Jesus said, rather than the impresâ€" sion made when the words were spoken. _ St. Luke says, ‘"They perceived what he said." If we suppose Jesus to have spoken at the time in veiled prophecy, we can lbetter understand the inconsiderate demand made by James and John. The chief priests and the scribes â€"Representing the Sanhedrin, or the governing council of the Jews. Before this council were tried the more important cases coming under the Jewish law. _ Shall deliver him unto the Genâ€" tilesâ€"This had not been mentioned in the earlier predictions of the death of Jesus. The Roman law did not permit the Jews to execute a death sentence ; it reserved to itâ€" self this right. » s ts 34. Scourgingâ€"with a whip of many lashesâ€"was an invariable acâ€" companiment of crucifixion. Jesus would naturally expect to be mockâ€" cd, because his claim to be a king would excite the ridicule of the solâ€" diers and the unfriendly people; but this prediction as a whole scems to rest on something more than ordinary foresight, since no one could know definitely what the Roâ€" man governor would do, and the definite time of the â€" resurrection was,. of course, a revelation. 35. James and John, the sons of Zebedeeâ€"In Mark 1. 19 and Matt. 4. 21 we learn that these brothers were fishermen, that they were mending their nets in their boat on the Sea of Galilee when Jesus had called them, and that they had left their father and the hired servants and followed him. They had been partners with Simon and Andrew, who were called at about the same time. Their mother was named Saâ€" lome (see Matt. 27. 56; Mark 15. 40). She was one of the women who followed Jesus in Galilee and ministered to him of their substance (Mark 15. 41), and many think she was a sister of the mother ofâ€" Jeâ€" sus. Comparing the two references above with John 19. 25, "his mother‘s sister‘‘ is generally taken to mean Salome. Saint John‘s omission of the name of his own mother is similar to the indirect way in which he refers to himself as "‘the disciple whom Jesus loved." If the supposition that Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Salome, the mother of James and John, were sisters is correct, then Jesus and these brothers would be cousins, and this relationship _ may have seemed to them to justify their reâ€" quest for special recognition in his kingdom. It also helps us to underâ€" stand how their mother could come to Jesus with a similar request (Matt. 20. 21). The fact that Jesus, while on the cross, commended his mother to John supports the thebry that they were related. We would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall ask of theeâ€"This demand seems most inâ€" considerate, especially since Jesus had just spoken of his approaching trial and suffering. It shows that his teaching could not have been clearly comprehended. P 37. The disciples may have taken literally Christ‘s words about the twelve thrones (Matt. 19. 28). _ 38. Ye know not what ye askâ€"In their â€" imagination, â€" nearness â€"to Christ meant honor. Jesus knew that it meant suffering. .

Places of honor in Christ‘s kingdom are to be attained, not given away. They have been preâ€" pared for those who are fitted for them, and influence counts for nothing. a1.

But it is not so among youâ€" In Christ‘s kingdom grtatness is not won by competition and selfâ€" assertion, but by working for the common good ; by making a state of society in which the strong help to bear the burdens of the weak, and the welfare of every individual is considered important. t Re ism m V We s CCC Ministerâ€"One who serves, though this word does not indicate his reâ€" lation to the person whom he serves. 44. _ Servantâ€"That is, bondserâ€" vant, one who is under obligation or holds a personal relation to those whom he serves.

This was true of his life in a sense in which it is not true of other lives, though the world has not been without its heroes and heroines, especially on the mission fields, who have given their lives that others might live fuller, truer lives. Rich, Handsome, a Sportsman and _ a Statesman. Sir Adam Beck! The new title sounds familiar and natural right at the start; for Ontario‘s ‘‘Minisâ€" ter of Power"‘ is associated in the public mind with more than a touch of the knightliness of the old, old days. When the peopleâ€"Conservatives and Liberals alikeâ€"thiak of Adam Beck they think of a gentleman poliâ€" ticianâ€"a broadâ€"gauge, wise, kindly man doing things naturally on a high plane. Because he is also rich and handsome and wellâ€"dressed and a sportsman of the highest type he stands as a unique figure in the Province. He is about the nearest approach we have in Canada to a Lord Rosebery. And as a matter of fact Sir Adam has taken the great British statesâ€" manâ€"politician for a model. He once said to an interviewer : "Like Lord Rosebery I had as a boy three great ambitions. â€"One was to marry the most beautiful lady in Canada, anâ€" other was to win the King‘s Plate, and the other was to be in politics.‘‘ These were the ambitions of the son of an obscure Ontario farmer. For Sir Adam was born fiftyâ€"seven years ago, on June 20, at Baden, Waterloo County, when through all that country rough farms were just emerging from the bush. He has realized his ambitionsâ€"except the King‘s Plate. He went to school in Galt. He made, his fortuneas a manufacturer of veneering and thin lumber and cigar boxes ,with facâ€" tories in London, Toronto, Montâ€" real, and Winnipeg. He is the big man of London. He has served sevâ€" eral years as Mayor and has done many things to benefit that city.

Mr. Moskioz was a man who lovâ€" ed chemistry. â€"After he had studied all that other people knew about, he branched out and started experiâ€" ments of his own. â€" After a year of labor he finally perfected a liquid which he called ‘Elixir of Energy."‘ He was so disgusted with his lazy servants that every morning he would march them into his laboraâ€" tory and give each a tablespoonful of the elixir. Then they would be seized with an irresistible impulse to labor at their daily tasks. After taking this, they would immediateâ€" ly fall to work and never stop all day. ua_y ® There was a crow that sat outside the laboratory window _ _ several mornings, and saw Mr. Moskioz ladling out this elixir. thought. Finally, one morning Mr. Mosâ€" kioz left the window open. ‘The crow stuck his head in and drank and immediately felt the desire to work. He looked around the laâ€" boratory, but could see nothing to do So he flew on, into the kitchen. There he brushed up against a pepâ€" per pot, knocking it over into the stew. The cook after scolding, picked it out and chased the crow. The inquisitive crow was very frightened and flew back into the laboratory. There he saw a bow!l which looked empty, and hid in it. But it was filled with an invisible "Elixir of Laziness."‘ The crow breathed in some of the elixir, and then tried to get out of the bowl. He struggled but was overcome. When the cook came into the laborâ€" atory, he found the poor old crow and killed him. All this was due to the crow‘s inquisitiveness. A "Dear me,"‘ said little Janet, "I buttoned just one button wrong, and now that makes all the rest go wrong,"‘ and she tugged and fretâ€" ted as if the button was at fault for her trouble. ‘‘Patience, paâ€" tience, my dear," said mamma, coming to the rescue. ‘‘The next time look out for the first wrong button, then you will keep all the rest right." And added mamma, "look out for the first wrong deed of any kind; another, and another is sure to follow."" Janet thought for a moment, then she remembered how one day, not long ago, she struck baby Alice. That was the first wrong deed. Then she denied having done it. That was another. Then she was unhappy and cross all day because she had told a lie. What a long list of buttons fastenâ€" ed wrong just because one was wrong. a £% Bolieve In Yourself. If you consider yourself a worm of the dust you must expect people to trample on,you. If you make a doormat of yourself people are sure to wipe their feet on you. More men fail through ignorance of their strength than through knowledge of their weakness. You may succeed when others do not believe in you, but never when you do not believe in yourself.

If we are not, certainly an honest: and serious effort to form a just apâ€" preciation of Jesus Christ and the place which He has acquired in both civics and philanthropy, s well as in commerce and ethics, is well worth while. It is no easy thing to form a just appreciation of Jesus. None of us ever saw Him in the flesh. Few of us have even visited the land where He was born or mingled with its people and customs. We are deâ€" pendent on others for His life story, and what we think of the life which He lived, of His teachings about God and life and duty, of His claims and His deedsâ€"our opinion of all such things must be formed at secondâ€"hand. ‘ Historic Reality of Jesus. Both Josephus, the Jewish hisâ€" torian, and ‘the Jewish Talmud reâ€" cognize Jesus‘ historic reality, and the latter accounts for His miraâ€" cles by the exercise of magic learnâ€" ed in Egypt, while Tacitus, the Latâ€" in historian, and Pliny the Youngâ€" er incidentally testify to His death under Pontius Pilate, and His worâ€" ship by the Christians as God. Celâ€" sus, in the second century, the first heathen â€" philosopher to write against Christianity, makes some eighty quotations from the New Testament or allusions, to incidents narrated in it, and so confirms the existence of the four gospels at that early date. The historical features of the life of Jesus, in other wonds, are authentic, and as reliable as the data connected with any other historical character, whatever be your views on New Testament inâ€" spiration.
