PA., Copjrlrbt. 1908. by W'm. n.1£ld***T. ubudrisuiuawm Lesson 5.— Feb. 5, 1098. "Jesus the Savior o f the World. John 3: 14-21 BEING BORN AGAIN.' ' Verse 7, Margin. "Ye must be born from above." On your way to Sunday school dig some grassout of the frost and snow ; roots, dirt and all. If you can giTe each member of the class a small plant it will deepen the impression See this plant and this earth. Through my magnifying glass the dirt is fdund made up of small stones. Nolife in them. Deadest of all dead things. "Xet in some unexplained, msyterious way these little roots reach down and touch these dead stones and the dead stones are born from above into the plant and the flower. The dead silica, potash, lime, etc., now live. Along comes the cow and pees the grass. She reaches down with her cow life and touches it. "Eats it.'- you say. It is thus lifted a step higher into the animal life. Then comes a life which is higher than the 'cow life and takes the beef of the cow. It thus becomes the man-life. Above the man-life iB a still higher life, the Spiritual life, the Christ life. The natural man is dead to the Christ life. Christ life_ reaches down as mysteriously as does the plant, touches our man-life and we are born again from above. Who recognises - the dead dirt in the glorious chrysanthemum and who recongisei the river thief in the Jerry McCauley. Here is a fantastic story I have used to get this truth into a lot of boys. Once there was a cunning cobbler, who mendsd people's stomachs. A cus- ; tomer on hia way to busiueas left his , poor, old, worn out and abused stomach ; to be repaired and cleaned up. When : the cobbler had waahed and fixed it all up he hung it out on the fence to dry. i A dog came along and stole it. The ' cobbler was in despair. The man : would soon be back lor his stomach. - The cobbler saw a lamb grazing in a field nearby, so he ran, took it, killed : it and appropriated its stomach. When : the man came the cobbler put in'tbe . lamb's stomach, fixed him up and sent him on his way rejoicing. Some days I afterward the cobbler met the man. "Well, Mr. Man," said he, "how are you getting along since I repaired your stomach?" "Oh, too fine for anything," reolied Mr. Mar, "never i felt better in my life. But there is one thing 1 can't account for. I have ; such a continual hankerin" after i grass. " This is why the boy who is bom again has such a "hankerin'" lor ; things 'different. Sunday schools, i Brotherhoods, Young People's Societies < and the fellowship of good people. He i has a new heart, the heart of the I Lamb. The boys have fever forgotten i the story. THE SERPENT CURE. i Verse 14: "As Moses lifted up the 1 serpent." ■ 1 Remember our lesson of last September when we studied jai ones' ;life? 1 Then we had the type. Today we have ' the antitype. It took hundreds of ' years for the "fullness of time" but tha'. graphic promise never failed. 1 There is no time with God. (2 Peter: i 3 8.) Why Christ should have to be ' lifted up like the brass snake, the ' image of the very thing that caused ' the terrible wilderness death, is too 1 much of a mystery for me. I don't ' know. Only one thing I know. God 1 directed. Moses set up. The bitten pjople had only f.0 look; andi.be saved ' from the most horrihle death. £God ' says you must in. like manner Jook to ' Christ— or die. Which will you do? 1 THE OuURT OF HONOR. Verse 16: "For God so loved , the ] w -rid He gavefHis only Begotten Sou." If any one asks if you know the Gos- ' pel say. yes. "What is it?" ^John, ' three, sixteen, ri'no can teach John, three, sixteen, in half an hour, or half a century?, I have a friend, a great mechanical engineer, who spent two , weeks at the wonderful Chicago Columbian Exposition. When he came home we asked him to give us an account of the fair. He couldn't do it. He was so provoked at his failure] he took the |train^the next day and traveled back the 800 miles to see the fair over again. When , he]came home we asked him the second time to tell us. About all we could get out ofjhim'was, "It is certainly great! It is certainly great!" We found out afterward, that, like thousands of other impressionable men he had spent roost of his time in the mellow glory of the marvellous Court of Honor and forgot all . lse. John, three, sixteen is jtat 'like that. As we stand in the hush of God's •Court of Honor we seem to ses and we s ; m to feel the golden light from the i palaces of heaven,— and to hear the music of the opalescent watcs|*that play from the fountain of life. "God j a j loved the world," Repeat it gently i John— you Henry— George— the next— i

1 *°0n'- HOW TO GET IN. Verse: "God sent * the Bon, * that the world should be sav.d." I was once trying to get a young fellow to some evangelistic meetings. "Got no use for a religion that sends a man to heil," he sneered. But it don't. It is a religion that saves from helL Suppose next summ-r you go out_to the ball park and in order to get iu all you have to do is simply look at the man sitting at the gate and be- ( lieve he is the man who owns the ball [ park— will you have the nevff to tell us he only came to town to drive boys , to- the Brifck Lot? Yes. salvation is just as simple as (hat and (2 Peter 3: , 9) is why God made«it so simple arid ■ easy. ! IS THERE A DF-VIlS t Verse- 19. "Men loved darkness i rather than light: ' 1 Isn't it strange? Account for it 1 without a personal devil if you can, I i can't That a boy should choose to be a "tough" rather than a little gentlei man. That a girl should choose to be I a snappy, hateful little termagant 1 rather than a sweet And gentle little i lady. That a man should choose to be 9 drunken loafer with a wretched home . and unkempt children, rather than a [ respectable citizen with a happy famI ily, well fed, well clothed and with 5 hosts of friends. That a woman should . choose to be., an evil-tounged, tattling i town terror rather than a kind and • charitable and beloved friend and • neighbor. That a woman of wealth i and position should choose to be an . empty, useless pleasure-seeking gamb1 ler, or worse, when she might be a , Helen Gould. Mrs. Sage or.Mrs. jWittimore, beloved, honored and blessed by | both God and man. There is a prince i of darkness, and John 8 : 44 and Matt. . 12 : 24 give the name of him. "SKINNIN' THE FENCE. " Verse 20: "Every one that doeth 1 evil hateth the light." Of course. Guess more than one of > you chaps know how it is yourself. I heard poor old Mrs. Little say last fall i as she ruefully contemplated her raided - i pear tree, "I can't raise any nice fruit i anymore." I saw some of you cross : 1 the street wh^n "Jummy the Chief" J came up this side. You may call it i "boyish pranks" now, but fellows that i really loved the light would want to take care of a lone old widow with no i boy of her own to look after her. Yes, 1 indeed, and "take it out of" any feli low who ever dared to skin over her ■ i fence. And this is exactly what will : happen when the Light gets into your i John 12 : 35, 36. ■ AN IDEAL CHRISTMAS AFTERMATH I The first snow of the season was ' casting broadcast with jmagic touch its i white mantle, as a gay party of merry ' i people wended i.ls way to the 1 ■ elegant cottage of Mrs. McKnight. 749 Washington street. The beautiful^brunette welcomed her 1 youthful guests with cordial warmth, 1 and the sharp contrast from the cold 1 i winter scenery to the glowing log fire and artistic environment of her cultured home, made a happy commence- . ment of a very pleasant evening. i "Mauhattan" was the first pleasure, and boxes of candy were awarded the most expert players. Dancing folby the dear old "Virginia Reel. " Miss Matilda Korneau sang "For- I gotten." and her pretty face'and love- 1 ly dark eyes added greatly to the ; charm of her b- autiful voice. From the glittering tree were distributed Christmas stockings, and the , jolly contents augmented the zest and ; of the festive socne. - The sol- ] hour of midnight was sounding as the happy young cotppany went quickly \ homeward, their gay voices and merry j and tin horns reverberating 1 through jthe deserted streets. The rich ' dark beauty of th« handsome hostess, her genial whole-souled courtesy and hospitality have made her one of Cape May's best beloved cottagers. Among those present were ' Mrs. Stevens, Mrs. Korneau, Miss Miss Miller, Miss Parkinson. Miss Black, Miss Rebe Doak. Mr. Reeves, Mr. Walter Savage, McDonald and others.

The seed of this talent lying dormant may be , awakened and developed to most glorious and wonderful proportions, ' but without the Divine spark it can never be created. The artist with his I brush catches the beauty of the subI ject and transfers it in all its delicacy . of natural coloring and charming com- , position to the canvas to remain perhaps for centuries. |So with the group- . ing of flowers, one must first have an . appreciation of their beauties and , love for them, but the ability to pro- ! , duce the really beautiful and picturesque by variety of arrangement! . and harmony of colors is one which I . may be largely developed by study and | I experiment. Study of the habits of j . vines- and manner in which they j naturally hang or festoon themselves when growing under the most favored | conditions. Study the natural growth j of the many varieties of flowers comt monly used for decorative purposes. , See how their effectiveness is heightened in most cases by the background , of mosses and foliage.
