God be merciful to me a sinner r HE Incident* of this lesson oc curred some weeks after the last week’s lesson. Jesus had been tiled to Bethany to 'restore Lasarus , life, and then again returned to crea. This lesson contains two par- tiles, In which four characters play a rrt. The parable of the unjust Judge as spoken to emphasise- the Impor- mlty of prayer. In this, as In every iirable, there Is a peculiar fitness In ic selection of characters. The Judge was unjust, neither fear- ig God nor man. The 'imposition Is here were such judges then as thcre nay be now. He had no,conscience to worn him; his heart wtoi impervious ., any appeal for mercy. Page s. In nearly all the other parables the ruth that they are Intended toi teach s stated at the close.

Always Pray. "Men ought always to pray.” Not merely in times of need and danger. We need not be always on*our knees, or In the attitude of prayer, but we can be In the spirit of prayer and In the habit of praying. What day closes wit hent many mercies to be grateful for, and many sins to be con fessed and pardoned? What day en tered on that has not Its burdens to be borne and battles with self and sin to fight? To omit prayer la like going “to battle without our armor or weap ons of defense; to go to our labor with out the morning meal; to cross the bar where the breakers rofir, without taking our pilot on board. A Christian servant once gave an illustration of praying always. She said when she woke In the morning she prayed that she might waken with the righteous in the resurrection. \\ hen she bathed that she might be washed In that fountuin that has been opened for sin and uncleanness; when she dressed, that she might be clad In the robes of n Redeemer’s righteousness; when she ate her morning meal, that i mtfrht be fed with heavenly man- ^fihl to had righted 1 Iron* He> not shako hoc off.

The heathen sometimes seems to ap preciate the value and power of perse vering prayer more than many profess- Ing Chrlsllnns. A traveler In the Him alayas tells us of a tribe of Indians who pray by machinery. Certain pray ers were placed on revolving cylinders and as the wheel went round the pray er came up. each time Its face turned Ood was supposed to read it., AVhlle engaged at work or pnasing the cylin der at Intervals, the worshippers from time to time gave It a turn so as to keep It almost constantly spinning on Its axis. Some placed It in a running stream, so that In turning like a mill wheel, prayer might be offered night We laugh at their folly, but what better they that mumble prayers In an unknown tongue, or read a prayer without mind or heart In It ? \\ e might put our prayers on a phonograph re- lord and with an electric current keep It revolving, hut God wou d never hear It, nor we receive a blessing. We ask and receive not, because we ask amiss. We do not believe whut we profess, nor feel what we say, nor wish what Sometimes, like the man rowing the boat, we look one way and pull he other. How can we expect God to an swer prayer when He sees and knows we are not in earnest? If we wme, we h g r, oi, would be urgent, praying In the field to hive I and factory, In our home, b> the wa>, *~ J at our business, praying always, e\er>- where. , _ The Pharisee and Publican.

In Herod, It wore a mask of con- science: In the Jews of a tender regard for Gild’s honor; in the Pharisee purity of life, that would not permit him to come In contact with what he regarded as common or unclean.

How he swells, struts, and stands by him- self to attract attention, and with himself. A soliloquy. He begins all right, with ’’God I thank thee." If he had oply stopped there, but the rest upolln It. He would make the sinw of others a background upon which to display his virtues. And then, looking around, he sees a poor Publican and drags hint Into his prayer, thanking God he Is so much better, making n foot stool of him that he tnny stnnd higher with Ood. And then he boasts of what he has done. Fasted twice a week Instead of once a vear ns the Mosala law required, and He gave tithes of all he possessed, even the anise and cummin. , The Publictn.
