Golden Text: Thou shalt call his name Jesus; for it is He that shall save His people from their sins. Matthew gives us in the first verse of his narrative the purpose he has in view. “The Book of the genera tion of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.” He is writing to Jews of Him who was of royal descent, the King of the Jews so born; and at the same time was ,the fulfilment of 'the Isaac type in the sacrifice of Himself. Nearly the whole of his narrative of the life of Jesus is taken up with the first of these only after He has been finally rejected by His own as their King is it that Matthew tells of His son of-Abraham character, in the closing chapters. It is most essential that you get this purpose and viewpoint of Mat thew clearly in your mind; for it is only in the light of it that you can properly understand the lessons of the next six months. It would be well for you to read the gospel nar rative over and over again until you see how Matthew is telling of the birth of the King, (Ch. 1) the flight and return of the King (Ch. 2) the herald and the inauguration of the King (Ch. 3) the testing of tire King, (Ch. 4) the manifests of the King, (Ch. 5,6, 7) the credentials of the King, (Ch. 8,9) etc. It is the King of the Jews of whom Matthew is always speaking, for Jesus is never called the King of the church. Keep in mind, therefore, the Jewish color ing throughout; although there are principles which are of universal ap plication. The Generation of the King It is fitting that Matthew should, at the outset, show the right of Jesus to the throne of David; so. he gives the genealogy in three sets — from Abraham to David, fourteen (2x7) generations; from David to Babylonian captivity, fourteen (2x7* generations; and from Babylonian captivity to the Christ, fourteen (2x) generations. These numbers are most significant—two being the num ber of incarnations, and seven the number of spiritual perfection, in the Bible. The promises to Abraham concerned the blessings of the cove nant to come through his seed; those to David were of the establishment of His kingdom and the permanency of His throne. It was only after the captivity that these began to be realized in the Christ. Jesus, the son- of David and son of Abraham, was the only one in whom they could be fulfilled. For the one to sit on the throne must be a lineal descendant of David, yet could not be a lineal descendant of Jeconiah, the last in the direct line of descent from David. See Jeremiah’s prophecy concerning him (Jer. vs. 22-23). Joseph, his de scendant, would have inherited the throne; his legal, but not actual Son, who has David’s blood in His veins through His mother, Mary, is the only one who has a right to that throne of David. Matthew’s geneal ogy, therefore, establishes His right to the throne. But notice that Mat thew distinctly describes Him as the legal son of Joseph. All of the oth ers -were begotten; but .when he comes to Joseph he does not say Joseph begat Jesus; Oh, no; He was the only begotten Son of God. It is: Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom born Jesus, who is called Christ. Joseph was only his legal father, by virtue of his marriage to Mary, while Joseph came from David through Solomon. The Birth of the King Luke got from Mary’s own lips the details of the birth of her first born Son; but Matthew just tells us Joseph’s story. Imagine his chagrin, his grief, his distress, of mind when he learned that the maiden that was to be his wife was with a child. The Jewish' law required a girl guilty of fornication should be stoned to death. Joseph wanted to spare Mary, so he had determined to give her a writ of divorcement privately, but in a dream God spoke to him, cleared her character, and told him that the son to be born should be called Jesus. Jesus is the Greek form for He should deliver His people from their sins. What wonderful memories did that name awaken in a pious Jew. How significant the two names witn which the King begins—Jesus and Emmanuel. “Savior” and “God with us.” But of this later. Now all of this, Matthew records because it was in fulfilment of prophecy. In trying to make the Jews believe that Jesus of Nazaretn was the Messiah of prophecy he quotes the old testament forty-nine times (7x7) and shows how the in cidents in His life were but the ful filment of what their own prophets had foretold of the Messiah. In these two chapters now before us which record His genealogy, His birth, His flight and return, all are in fulfilment ©f prophecy. We have tlready seen how His genealogy made him the rightful heir to the throne—as the Magi said, He was ’ born King of the Jews.” His birth was also in fulfilment of prophecy for Isaiah had foretold that a virgin should bring forth a son. Some stumble over this now. but His vir gin birth is not as great a miracie as His sinless life—in fact, one necessitates the other. A scientist has recently made a sea urchin’s egg fertile by artificial stimulation. Is v. aHyto’ng to be wondered at that God -who made the human ovum couid also make it fertile by some stimulus about which we know noth- O tn’ X°’n the V ! rgln birth 18 not • I ? eliev , e ,i n was necessary to the sinless life of Jesus. The night and Return of the Kinir rhe visit of the wise men from the east was the occasion of another prophecy being uncovered, for inquiry on their part developed the fact that • t, -2?, of the J ew s was to be born in Bethlehem of Judah, according to the Prophet Micah; and there guided by the star they found the infant King and His mother. Herod also was interested, but for another rea son. And when he found he had teen auped by the wise men he ordered ev ery boy there under two years of age to be slain. Did it ever occur to >ou how the devil wag ever trying to destroy Jesus? His life was threat ened in Mary’s womb, for she only escaped death by stoning by the ac ■on of Joseph, who shared her re proach with her. On the perilous journey to Bethlehem his life was gain threatened. Now, Herod's bru 'ality would have succeeded had not toseph been warned in a dream and escaped to Egypt. There was not a day but that the devil would have destroyed Him if he could have done so. And this was all because of His , ove for me and for you. His return was-another fulfilment of prophecy, for Matthew identifies the King with His people when by the direction of the spirit he quotes Hosea 14:1, “Out of Egypt have I called my son.” The Name of the King Probably the thing that interests us most, however, is the naming of the King. Jesus and Emmanuel. What wonderous memories must have been recalled to the minds of pious Jews by the names. Joshua the First (for this is the Hebrew of the Greek Jesus, or vice versa) had brought them deliverance from the Canaanites, had driven their enemies out before them on to victory. Joshua the Second had been associat ed with ZeVubbabel in rebuilding the temple after the Babylonian captivi ty. Neither had given them the rest promised to this people of God. But now another is to be born and His name shall be called “Jesus, for it is He that shall save His people from their sins.” But the Virgin’s son was to be called Emmanuel, which means, “God with us.” How significant. Sin means separation from God. To save from she is to bring us bac k otGod Sin means darkness, to have God with us is light, for God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. Sin is defeat; to have God with us is vic tory. Sin is despair and distress; to have God with us is joy unspeakable, immeasurable and unending. So Jesus is also Immanuies; for in His own blessed person He realizes God with us, drives away darkness, for He is light, turns defeat into victory, and makes our joy full. “Behold I stand at the door and knock; if any man open the door I will come in and sup with him and he with me.” Will you? WILFUL OUIJA BY RUTH NEELY (Copyright, 1920, by Ruth Neely.) CHAPTER VI Rosalie, however, was never long at a loss for interesting suggestion. For some time, in fact, she had been anxious for the opportunity the occa sion presented. As exponent of grow ing leadership of higher life, psychic experimentation was more than a temptation—it w r as duty. Therefore: “Is it because you are so anxious for Roger’s safety that you are frightened?” she asked. “Surely you realize that you need not be.” “No, it’s not exactly that, I guess I haven’t had time to be anxious, I just seem to have his going away, and I hate still worse, I think, that I should have to come to care so much —sor —for any one. In away, it’s appalling.” Poor Nora, her stoicism gone, compelled by the frankness of her honest nature to search Its possibilities, was plainly terrified at the depth charges reveal ed within love’s troubled sea and this it was which still absorbed her. But Rosalie had something else in mind. ' “Still, later on you will be ter ribly frightened at his danger, unless you know how he may be safeguard ed. Shall I tell you?*’ she asked. “Safeguarded? How?” questioned Nora. “Hundreds, thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of English soldiers have been protected through prayer. But the work must be systematized and the thought of safety held by their friends. Did you never hear of higher life protective circles? Well, the time has come to tell you. We are doing it right here and now. And, if you wish, I will make Roger my special charge. I would be glad to do it, for my own sake, to estab lish another link in the great chain of evidence for higher life and its great truth.” Nora thanked her friend, as in duty bound, profusely. But she was conscious of a highly developed state of doubt, if not utter disbelief. Pray er, doubtless, could do many things. Nora, whose life thus far had been free from the sorrow which re ligions and finds them adequate or wanting, as the case may be, was conscious of no special lack of faith. In truth, she had not been greatly interested, the future was so utterly remote. Vague memories of black clad women who had come to her mother’s home sittings to commune, sobbing, with their loved ones, served only to Intensify Nora’s distaste for the whole problem. It was, for her, tainted with frau.d on the one hand, with weak delusion on the other. There had been widows, in those old days of the Dulany circle, who had come in pitiful confidence to ask how best to invest the little fund of insurance money, whether or not to sell the little home, plac ing themselves, with a credulity al most beyond belief, within the very jaws of the jackal. Be it said in justice, neither Ed Dulany nor his wife were ever par ties to swindling schemes. They were satisfied with the fat fee they charged for the messages produced. But big ‘rake-offs” and risky "get aways” made by numerous of their colleagues they discussed freely in the child Nora’s presence, accustom ed, as they were, to her quiet re ticence. A belief, whose exponents, by their silence if not actually participation, permitted the robbing of. the widow and the orphan of their pittance, must stand forevermore disgraced, Nora felt. _ Perhaps this higher life of Rosa lie’s was a different thing altogeth er. Doubtless it really was. Many intelligent persons believed its teach ings, even to the whispere/1 possibil ities of its healing and of triumph over death. Rosalie believed it and of course Rosalie was honest. That is, Rosalie might deceive herself, but surely she would not lend herself to that old cruel trick ery—surely. , With a mental gesture, Nora shook off her doubts. Rosalie was her friend. To think of her in doubtful fashion was odious. That settled the question for Nora. Besides, there was her meeting with Roger to think about. He had been in camp the. last two weeks, near OUR HOUSEHOLD CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE O.THOMAS Mythology Dear Mrs. Thomas: When a fellow is ti-ying to educate himself by reading at night, he gets discourag ed over so many things he cannot understand. I have been reading some books that mention Olympus and Minerva. It is a pleasure to me, but what is the idea about bringing in Juno, Minerva and Dorcas when the sub ject is Woman’s Suffrage? E. L. S. Your question is one that puzzles a great many people who have not had the advantages of a high school. There is nothing like knowing what one is reading about, and to do that you should have a good dictionary and a book galled Bulfinch’s Age of Fable. Except the Bible there is nothing so universal in modern lit erature as ancient mythology. The so-called divinities of those ancient days have not a single worshipper, enlightenment has made them histori cal but divested them of their sa cred character. Their temples have decayed, but in literature they have found a permanent place. To quote from the book I mention: “Zeus, Mi nerva and Apollo are among our lit erary ancestors. Many of our best known words are but a harvest of their sowing. This similarity of language presupposes an origin com mon to all. Man is always found in company with some god; left to himself he constructs one ot his own. The most extravagant legends are invented and given locality. The forces of nature become sentient be ings, and are clothed with conscious power. In order to understand these legends we must acquaint ourselves with the ideas of the structure of the universe which prevailed among the Greeks —the people from whom the other nations received much of this mythology.” The ancient Greeks believed the earth to be flat and circular and that their own country was the center. The very central point according to them was either Mount Olympus, the abode of the gods, or Delhi, so famous for its oracle. They thought the circular disk of the earth was crossed from west to east, and divided into two equal parts by the Sea, as they called the Mediter ranean, and its continuation, the Euxine. • * *•> The ancient Greeks thought the ocean was a river that flowed around this . flat, circular eart-h. They thought it flowed from south to north on the western side and in the opposite direction on the other side. These ancient Greeks called their own country Hellas and thought the northern part of the earth was in habited by a race called Hyp-er-bo re-ans, they thought these Hyperbo reans dwelt in everlasting bliss and in a delightful climate like unto springtime, beyond the lofty moun tains whose caverns were supposed to send the chilling blasts of the north wind that pierced like darts the people of Hellas. These people beyond the mountains did not suf fer from disease or old age. The poet Moore gave us a song called “The Song of Hyperborean.” You may have heard it, and all of you could do no better then to get the book of poems written by that author. Our literature is full of his beautiful allusions and the one mentioned begins. ”1 come from a land in the sun bright deep, Where golden gardens glow. Where the winds of the north be calmed in sleep Their couch-shells never blow.” On the south side of the earth, close to the stream of ocean dwelt a people quite as happy and vir tuous as the Hyperboreans and these the Greeks called Ethiopians. The gods of Olympus favored them so highly that they often left their abode to go and share the Ethiopian at hand, but so occupied that they had no opportunity for even a short time together. CHAPTER VII ROGER came Monday night, and at the first sight of his face Nora knew that her premoni rG.z. ♦ tlon „ was true ~that he was due to sail at once. He did not suppressed excite t?on COU no other explana- is ’ Nora thought so for the rirst few moments, given over to interchange of endearments. lou beauty!” There was a new te l n i ler .lover’s voice, a new, deep throated vibration. New, yes but not strange—to Nora. :Fi°. r Jt seemed that something within her had been awaiting this X® ry .. ca lh a vital something which throbbed response with every heart beat. Never before had she seen Roger so beautiful, so brave, and gallant in bearing, so tall, so broad shouldered in his shapely uniform. Unconscious as she was of her own loveliness at the moment, the open adoration in the girl’s wide eyes furnished the final spark to the flame of love devouring Roger. “Sweetheart, promise me not to refuse what I ask—no, no, don’t speak yet!” The man drew the girl still closer, lifted her unresisting arms and placed them about his neck, then pressed his lips to hers— Suddenly, with desperate courage, he withdrew them, still murmuring love words. “I feel like a beggar, darling,” he half sobbed. “But you must say yes, you must, you must!” Then, while he still held ’her tightly in his arms, Roger made his des perate plea- She must marry him before he sailed. She must. It had to be. Startled, terified at her own yield ing impulses, Nora tried hard to take a stand against the folly of imme diate marriage. For one thing, how did Roger know he was to go? Was it settled? Yes, it was settled. Sergeants were not supposed to know sailing dates; his information had come by accident and—Roger was indeed a good sol dier—even to her he would not dis close it, but the time was soon. They could have the term of his furlough, the briefest of honeymoons—and the sweetest? Who shall say to man, “This is wisdom, that is folly!” Many re grets came to Nora in her after life, but never was she less than humbly grateful for the weakness—she thought it weakness at the time — which caused her finally to break down and give assent. They were married the following morning. So much delay was abso lutely necessary to Roger’s arrange ments. That is Roger thought the arrange ments his. And destiny smiled, doubtless, as she sent the dispatch which reached the young husband at the hotel to which he took his bride late the same afternoon. It read: "Report at once.” Roger fulfilled Rosalie’s prediction to the utmost, for he had learned the soldier’s creed —“obey.” But Nora, torn by conflicting emotions, was blindly oblivious to all but that the man in whose keeping her heart was her first grief, she was almost in articulate until the moment of her husband’s last embrace. And Roger was mistaken, after all, about the sailing date, for he went aboard ship at dawn next morning. The wire reached Nora at noon Wed nesday. Then silence in its various stages, inexplicable, terrifying, unbelievable, horrible. Silence, the torturer, si lence the sphinx, stone-eyed and stony lipped, yielding not a whisper to the agonized flesh and blood that beat, bare-handed and bleeding, against her. This was the form of suffering allotted Nora in the long, dark hours that followed her one short day of love. Three weeks pass ed, six weeks, two months, three months, and still no word. Another installment of The Tri weekly’s fascinating mystery serial will be published in the next issue of this paper. Watch for it! sacrifices and banquets. Mortals that were favored by the gods were taken to a happy place called the Elysian plain to enjoy immortality. This region was called the “For tunate Fields,” and the “Isles of the Blessed.” “They need not the moon in that land of delight, ‘ They need not the pale, pale star; The sun is bright by day and night, Where the souls of the blessed are. “They till not the ground, they plow not the wave, They labor not, never oh, never, Not., a tear do they shed, not a sigh do they heave They are happy forever and ever.” You see the Greeks knew little of any real people, so they peopled north and south with fortunate peo ple and the western portion of the sea with giants, monsters and en chantresses. The dawn, the sun and the moon were supposed to rise out of the ocean on the eastern side, and to give light to gods and men. Our airships are literal fulfillment of that ancient idea that the sun god went in a winged boat over the northern part of the- earth and back to the place of rising in the east. Jupiter, or Zens, was the king of Olympus. Minerva, the goddess of wisdom, was his daughter. She and the Graces wove the robes the gods dressed in. Vulcan waa architect, smith, chariot builder, and artist of all work in Olympus. He built of brass the houses of the gods, he made the golden, shoes in which they trod the air or water. He shod with brass the celestial steeds that drew the chariots of the gods through the air or on the water. He made the furniture and gave it power to move in and out of the palace. Juno was the wife of Jupiter. Begin now and read your Bible carefully, from Genesis to Revela tion, and you will find the origin of many of our commonest sayings. Dorcas was a law giver to the He brews and the article on suffrage must have used by the women, Dor cas and Minerva, to show that it is no new thing for -women to be high in the councils of their people. We are in a very materialistic age, and it’s good to take up the old books and follow the lines of thought as those ancients portrayed them. Because money is cheap right now we should spend more of it in education and making our homes more than merely four square walls. Disinherits Son Who Mamed German Wife HARTFORD —Because he married a German woman, Arthur C. John son, of Philadelphia, was disinherit ed in his grandmother’s will filed here. Mrs. Ellen Tuttle, the testa trix. in a clause said: “I do not wish any part of my per sonal effects to go to a German' wife or her family.” Mrs. Johnson, who died last week in Hopington, Mass., distributed cash legacies of about $38,000. Dry Tin Thoroughly For ordinary care, tin utensils should be washed in hot soapy water, rinsed in hot clear water, and dried thoroughly. A tin utensil that has food dried on it should be covered with a weak soda solution, heated for a few minutes, and then washed. Scraping scratches tin and may ex pose the iron or steel surface under neath, which may rust. Tin darkens with use, and the tarnish protects the tin; therefore tin utensils should not be scoured simply for the sake of making them bright.

Please print this in the next Tri-Weekly. I am your friend. J. R. C. Your girl friend seems to be a little jealous and selfish too. Girls should understand that to appear jealous of other girls is one of the surest ways of losing their boy frends. If you care so much for her, though, it seems to me you wouldn’t want to correspond so often with oth er girls, besides herself. I real ly think she cares for you. Try to be more considerate of the girl you say you love. Keeping Aluminum Bright Aluminum does not tarnish easily in ordinary use, but one caution should be observed' in cleaning. Alkalis discolor aluminum; therefore it should not be washed with strong soap, nor should scouring powders containing free alkali be used on it. Discolorations on aluminum may be rubbed o with whiting or fine steel wool (grade 00), or dissolved by the acid in vinegar, or by dilute oxalic acid. These acids must be thorough ly washed off the aluminum. Some special preparations for cleaning aluminum are on the market. A Proverb Puzzle . Can You Solve It?

DOROTHY DIX TALKS HIS WIFE’S KEEPER BY DOROTHY DIX The World’s Highest Paid Woman Writer (Copyright, 1920, by Wheeler Syndicate.) THE other day I was told a piti ful and tragic little story. A man married a beautiful young girl, who was hardly more than a child, a clinging, trust ful, innocent little creature with no knowledge o f the world to guide her, or protect her. More than that, she was one of the clinging-vine women who reach out instructive tendrils towards any masculine support nftar them, and she was as bound to have love, and tenderness, and caresses, as a flow er is compelled to have sunshine and water in order to live. The husband was a stren, cold, hard man, obsessed In his occupa tions, which took him from home to far parts of the earth. He was away often for months upon at a time. Even when he was at home he repulsed his wife’s endearments, and scolded her for her babyish de sire to be petted. Os course the inevitable happened. The pretty little wife, who must have love or die, found a man who wasn’t too busy, or too preoccupied with his own affairs to feed her hun gry heart on the food that her hus band denied her. He paid her all the delicate little attentions that she craved. He told her how beautiful, find how lovely she was. He kissed the lips the husband had been too indifferent to kiss, and, at last, when the husband came l back home he found his home empty, and he killed the man who had taken his wife away from him. I do not for a moment justify the conduct of either the wife or the lover, but it seems to me that the greatest of the three sinners in this tragedy, and the one who is most to blame, is the husband. A woman should be strong enough to stand alone and resist temptation. She should have honor enough not to betray the man to whom she has sworn to be loyal, but when God does not give a human being a back bone, we cannot expect it to verte brate. The husband knew his wife's weak ness. He knew just how avid she was for love, just how she reached out unconscious pleading hands to every man, just how she purred like a kitten under a caressing touch. He knew how credulous and unsuspi cious she was. And, knowing this, it was his duty to protect her even more against her self than against the m&n with whom she came in contact and when he failed to do it her sin upon his head. For a man who marries a weak woman and does not safeguard her ■weakness, is just as much to be blamed as if he failed to hold a lit tle child’s hand over a rough road and let It stumble into a pit. When a man marries, he takes his wife’s life into his keeping far more than he realizes. He literally be comes her keeper and is responsible for her moral well-being as well as her physical. He recognizes that it is his duty to feed and clothe her, but only too often he fails to perceive that he is just as much bound to provide for her spiritual needs as he is for tier bodily ones, and that it Is just as important to protect her against the temptations that beset her as it is to protect her against the danger of cold and starvation and homeless ness. This duty of keeping the woman he has married safe from harm lies all the more heavily on a man be cause the husband is usually older than the wife, and he has necessar ily seen much more of the world than she has. By observation, or experience, he knows to what bit ter ends so many pleasant looking paths lead. The man, for Instance, who is married to a woman who must have some man to lean upon, some man upon whom to lavish her affections, some man to pet and flatter her, is a fool not to realize that if she can- SB IftyH iLuflH [ -i-r W 1 Nervous Breakdown | “I am so nervous it seems as though .1 should fly”—“My nerves IUI are all on edge” —“ I wish I were dead.” How often have we heard iHI these expressions or others quite as extravagant from some loved one X who has been brought to this state by some female trouble, which CU 'to has slowly developed until the nerves can no longer stand up under it.

Nor is she any more to be blamed than the starving wretch who steals a loaf of bread. If her husband would keep her safe, he must give her .the tenderness that she is bound to have, and that she will in stinctively ask of some other man if she is denied it at home. Every day we meet gay and pleas ure-seeking young wives going their giddy ways alone. .They are danc ing, and dining, and flirting with other men, w.hile their husbands are at their office’s or their clubs. One wonders if these absent hus bands are voluntarily qualifiylng as first aids to a divorce, or whether they are so besotted with vanity tha" they think that no woman could ever possibly cease to love them, and prefer them above all other men. Also one wonders how they can be so little mindful of their duties to wards the women they have sworn to love, honor, and protect. The husband’s excuse is that his wife loves society and he hates it, that she likes to go around at night and he is tired and wants to be left in peace. So he delegates his duty as escort to some other man. Now no man has a right to marry a hu man butterfly without having made up his mind to flit about with her from flower to flower to at least a reasonable extent. After that he might restrain her, but he has no right to turn her into a grub en tirely, and still less right to let her singe her beautiful wings against the bright lights as she is sure to do if he is not there to protect her. For a husband is his wife’s keep er, and so many tragedies could be averted if only he was faithful to his trust. (Dorothy Dix articles appear in this paper every Monday, Wednes da yand Friday.)
