Text of the Lesson, Matt, xxviil, 15—Gol
den Text, I Cor. xv, 20—Memorize
Verses 5-7 —Comments by Rev. 11. S,
Ilofl'inan.
[Condensed from Lesson Helper Quarterly by

publisher.]
Notes.—V. 1. End of the Sabbath, means
tbo same as after the Sabbath. Began tu
i dawn, daybreak near sunrise, Mark xvi, 2.
i Mary Magdalene, see Luke viii, 3. The
' other Mary, the mother of James, Matt,
i xxvii, <>l. First day of the week, the first
I Christian Sunday. V. 2. There was, Ro- :
vised Version, bad been. V. 4. As dead men,
by fright were thrown into a swoon. V. 5. |
i Fear ye not, be not agitated or troubled. V.
i G. Seo the place, to satisfy yourselves that ho ,
: is risen. V. 8. Departed quickly, run, tbo
i news was so good as to put speed into their
feet. V. 9. All hail, a Salutation which
j means rejoice. Held him by the feet, threw
i themselves prostrate before him, 2 Kings iv,
37. V. 12. Large money, much money to
bribe them to conceal the truth. V. 13. Per
suade him, satisfy Pilate that he would not
i punish them.
V. 1. Jesus had now laid in the guarded
tomb Frida\ T night, Saturday, and Saturday ;
night, and the morning of the first day (our •
i Sunday) had come. In the twilight of the
early morning, not only Mary of Magdala 1
and Mary the mother of Jesus, but several '
■ other holy women wended their way to the
sepulcher. Matthew omits the names the
! others give because he expects to continue his ■
■ account of the two he mentions, chapter
: xxvii, Gl. The Mary of Magdala, in Galilee,
■ was delivered by Jesus from seven demons,
but she is not the same as many think, with
“the woman that was a sinner.” While they i
bore the spices which they had prepared
there may have struggled in their hearts, so '
filled with grief, a remote hope of his resur-
: rection. These women, “last at his cro:s .-.iid
j earliest at his grave,” were ready to receive '
1 tho glad news of Christ’s resurroe! ion. The
I disciples were slow to believe it , showing the j
i difference between woman’s intuition and
; man’s reasoning process in attaining the same J
result. They went “to see the sepulcher.” !
How true affection still prompts us to go to i
tho place where a sainted one rests, to see the i
tomb of buried love. Is there not unconsei- j
ously in each such visit the hope of a resur- ,
rection of the body?
On the way they worried about tho re- ■
moval of the huge stone. How often we are ■
concerned about difficulties which will be '
removed when we come to them.
V. 2, 3. There had been an earthquake, '
perhaps a repetition of the shock described j
in chap, xxvii. 51 (at tho time of the Lord's I
death), and a divine messenger had descended
i from heaven to remove tho stone. Jesus i
. rose from the dead by the exertion of his own i
! innate divine power. The earthquake and '■
i the shining angels but evinced Iris divine
i majesty, and were sent to overawe the guards
1 and to show that Jesus was not taken from
1 the tomb by human power. WbOn the
j women approached tho tomb, tho herald of j
1 the risen Saviour sat in the shining robes of !
' triumph and purity upon the stone.
’ V. 4. \\ bile tho old heroes are trembling 1
. ' and impotent, the desponding became heroic;
j ■ while the living become as dead, he who was
> ' dead comes back to glorious life.
) • V. 5. Tho shining one know what sor- ,
> row tho hearts of those women carried. .
' j Hence he said, ‘ Fear not ye.”
i V. G. The turning point in human his- i
’ i tory begins with Christ’s resurrection. Every
( j human hope springs from his empty tomb.
; i “Ho is risen, as he said,” Luke xxiv, 6-7.
J Jesus had repeatedly predicted that he would .
I arise from the dead. He was willing to rest ,
’ all his claims to the Messiabship and divin- j
! ity upon his ability to overcome death.
. j V. 7. The women first to see the empty !
i tomb, first to hear that he was risen, first to
. have the risen Jesus to speak to them and
, ! first to touch his resurrected body (v. 9) were I
; j made the first evangelists to make known his |
»| resurrection.
■' : They were to toll the disciples, Mark xvi, 7, !
’ I adds “and Peter.” He, the saddest of all, was
J | to have a drop of joy in his cup, showing i
I that Christ had forgiven him.
j The disciples were to be told that Jesus
, would meet them in Galilee, as he had prom
ised before his crucifixion.
V. 8. Tho joyful news put elasticity in ■
their steps and enthusiasm in their souls.
They made “haste” on such business. And ;
yet with all the joy that tliiHibbcd in their
bosoms there were mingled emotions of fear, i
“Fear at what they had seen; joy at what’i
they had heard.” Schaff.
V. 9. As they were hurrying on their way
to tell the disciples Jesus met them. Jesus
always meets us when wo are earnestly in
the path of duty.
Kneeling down at his feet with beautiful
Oriental simplicity and grade, the women I
worshiped him, rendering him divine liom-
V. 10. They were not to fear him though '
he rose from the chambers of the dead. 'I bey
were not to fear the hate and perseeution < f
their enemies. Christ rose to silence ail fears. !
V. 11-12. Contemporaneously with the
women entering Jerusalem some of tho j
guard, perhaps the officers, entered tho city; '
! one bearing the news of tbo resurrection to !
i friends, and the other to the enemies of Jesus. '
Caiaphas and the chief rulers deemed the-i
matter so important and the situation so*
grave that the groat council of the nation |
was hurriedly called together. It has been '
stated that this was the last session that was
ever held by the sanhedrim.
V. 13-15. The miserable subterfuge to ;
which tho rulers resorted refutes itself. How '
was it that all the sixty «oldiers slept at the j
same time, and so soundly as not to be awak- I
i ened by the disciples us they rolled away the !
• stone, lifted and carried away the dead '
• body? If they slept how could they see that |
1 it was the disciples who stole tho !•■' !y? Tho 1
discipL s had no motive in ihel ody.

BTORIES ABOUT ACTORS.
110 Was Almost I’o >1 Enough to Be n
Success.
So! Smith Russell tells of how he was trav
eling on Long Island some seasons ago, doing
his monologue in town balls and church
basements. At the railway station in one of ;
t.hc:-e little eel catching communities, a na- j
tire, rust}- and hoary, sat on a freight truck 1
and accosted tho comedian with: “Be you '
Mr. Russlef”
“Yes, that’s my name,” answered Sol.
“Waal, I thought so.” said tho native. “I
seen yeow up to the t' - wn hall las’ night, i
anwaul, ycu*re a good an!”
“O, thank you,” said Sol; “I’m glad you :
liked tn entertainment.” *
“Sineo 1 coma away,” resumed the native,
“I’ve been thluktn* that menbe you might do
sumpin for my boy—good, likely critter as
ever lived, but so pesky full of his gimcracks
that we can’t do nothin’ with him. Put him
tn a shingle factory last spring for to larn
the trade., but he kep* ’em all laffln’ so that
they couldn’t do no work, an’ one mornin’
they threw him out, an’ ho hain’t doin’
nothin’ noow. Scttin’ up to your show last
night 1 jest about made up my mind that
Rubo would make a mighty good livin’ in
your business an’ I thought I’d ask you to
take him along with you. He’s tho gol
durndest fool you ever see in all your born
days.”
Tho ex-Rev. George C. Miln once had a
similar experience out in Nebraska City. He
was playing “The Fool’s Revenge,” and he
noticed that one old lady sitting well down
in front was fearfully agitated. Sho sobbed
and wept like a child. Mr Miln know ho was
a pretty powerful actor, but he had never
; sus[M?cted that he had it in him to exercise so
terrific a control over another’s emotions. He
. sent word down to the old lady that he’d like
to talk with her after the play So tbo old
lady waited. When Mr Miln had exchanged
his stage toggery for civilized raiment ho
stopped down into the parquet and greeted
the old lady cordially
“My acting moved you?” he suggested in
his deepest and most soothing tones.
“Lor’s sakes alive,” said sho, “1 should
rayther say it did. I've got a son who’s an
actor in Cheyenne, ami it broke rue all up to
think that mebbe he wasn’t no better at
actin’ than you be.’’—Exchange
A Grave Oversight Punished.
When the eccentric Harry Webb (noted
for his freaks of absentmindedness) was Jes
see of the Queen’s theatre in Dublin tie pro
duced “Macbeth” with new scenic effects.
Among the rest, clouds descended to conceal
tho exit of the three witches in the first
scene. Webb, anxious to discover how the
scene worked, passed from tho stage to the
front, but he saw only two witches instead
of three.
Rushing back to tho stage, hoasked:
“Where’s tho other witch?” Then to the
stage manager: “Fine him, sir; fine him a
week’s salary.”
“Please, sir,” explained that perturbed
functionary, “it's yourself that missed the
scene.’’
“Bless me, so it was! Dear mo, give me a
cloak; I'll go on in the next scene; and Jen
kins, fine yourself five shillings for allowing
me to neglect my business.”
“Sir!” exclaimed the dumfounded Jenkins.
“Y’es, five shillings. It ought to be teu,
but I’ll take five.”—Detroit Free Press.
Wanted tho Play Changed.
Some theatrical managers get weary of
the incessant draft upon the exchequer for
trifles, very frequently the most necessary
requirements of a play The property man
knows what the plot calls for; ho asks the
manager to borrow or buy the necessaries.
A manager recently was asked for money to
buy cartridges, some play like “Deadwood
Dick” being on the boards, and shooting tho
villain being tho main point of interest in
tho drama, were absolutely needed. The
manager gave up a dollar without a word,
but when the next day the property man
camo again and asked for moro cartridges he
kicked
“Why,” said he, “I gave you a dollar for
those things yesterday."
“1 know you did, but they wero all used
up,” replied the property man.
“Well, 1 won’t stand that kind of racket.
You can go back and have the plot changed
and have the villain killed With a club?’—
Chicago Herald.
Traveling for Half Fare.
A good story is told of Bolossy Kiralfy.
When his “Seven Ravens” company went to
pieces out west, tho wire walker asked:
“How am 1 to get back to New York?”
“I'd like to fix you first rate.” replied
Kiralfy, “but 1 can't think how to do it?’
Then an idea struck him, and he added; “I’ll
tell you. You walk the wires. And say,
travel at night. It’s only half rate then.”—

Great Versatility—lts Great Drawback.
A New State of Things.
Little did B. Franklin wot that some day
the little start he made when he baited his
pin hook with a good conductor and tapped
the l?w browed and bellowing nimbus with
his buoyant kite and the pickle Jar of
electricity thus crudely acquired would bo
the egg from which inventors and scientists
would hatch out a system which could not
only encircle the globe with messages swifter
than the flight of Phoebus, but that anon tho
light of day would be Altered through a
cloud of cables loaded with destruction sufli
cient for a whole army and the air be filled
with death dealing dangling wires.
I am not an old fogy, though I may have
that appearance, and 1 rejoice to see the

Keep up with the procession. Have 1 not

from the paper collar up to tho finger bowl,

To return, however, to the subject of elec
tricity I have recently sought to fathom
the style ami motif of a new system which is
to in- introduced into private residences,
hotels ami police headquarters. In private
houses it will ik> used as a burglar’s welcome.
In hotels it will Lake the mental strain off
thel»ellboy relieving him also of a pirtion
of ins burdensome salary at tho same time.
In the jMjlice department it will do almost
everything but eat peanuts from tho corner
stand
I he system is on exhibition in a large room
dowjih-wn. with the signals or boxes on ono
side ami the annunciator or central station
on the other By walking from one to the
other a distance in all of thirty or forty
miles. I was enabled to got a slight idea of
the principle. I
It is certainly a very intelligent system. I
never felt my own inferiority any more than
I did in the presence of this wonderful inven- i
tiort it will do almost anything, it seemed
to mo. ami the main drawback seems to bo
its great versatility, for it thereby becomes
so complex LJiat in order to become at all in
timate with it policemen ought to put in two
years at Yale ami at least a year at Leipsic.
An extended course of study would thu< [K*r
fect him in this line, but he would not then
be content to act as a policeman. He would 1
want to be a scientist, with dandruff on his
coat collar ami a far away look.
Then, again, take the hotel scheme, for in- 1
stance. We go ton dial which is marked ’
room 32. I’here we find that by treating it
in a certain way it will announce to tho
clerk that room 32 wants a fire, ice water,
pens, ink, paper, lemons, towels, lire escape,
Milwaukee sec, pillow shams. New York
World, menu, Croton frappe, carriage, laun
dry. physician, sleeping car ticket, berth I
mark for same. Halford sauce, hot flat iron
for ironing trousers, baggage, blotter, tidy
for chnir. or any of those things. In fact I
have not given half the list on this barome
ter. because I could not remember them,
though I may have added others which were 1
not on the indicator. The message arrives
at the oflice. but the clerk is engaged in con
versation with a lady He does not jump *
when the alarm sounds, but continues the
dialogue. Another guest wires the oflice that
he would like a copy of Tho Congressional
Record.
The message is filed away automatically, and
tho thrilling conversation goes oil Then No. 1
75 8 asks to have bis mail sent up. No. 25 ■ <
wants to know what time the ’bus loaves tho j (
house for the train going east, and whether <
that train will connect at Alliance, 0., with
a tide water train for Cleveland in time-to
catch the Lake Shore train which will bring
him into New York nt 7:30, and whether all 1
those trains arc r<*i'orted on time or not. and I
if not. will the oflice kindly state why? Other I
guests also manifest a morbid curiosity !
through their transmitters, but the clerk *
does not get excited, for ho knows that all
those remarks are filed away in the largo I
black walnut box nt the back of tho oflice.
W hen he gets ready, provided he has been
through a course of study in this brand of
business, be takes one room at a time, nnd
tlddPessing a pale young “Bnnistef- Poli.shcri <

; reads a few pages of instructions, and then
pushes a button, perhaps. Instead of ring-

then asking him to obtain the correct limn
1 at the oflice and come back with the infoi'filtt-
• tion, conversing with various people on his
• way bark and expecting compensation for it,
' the guest can ask tho oflice and receive tho
answer without getting out of bed. You
! leave a call for a certain hour, and at that
: time your own private gong will make it so
J disagreeable for you that you will I e glad to
i rise. Again, if you wish to know the amount
of your bill, you go through certain exercises
with the large barometer in your room, and,
supposing you have been at the house two
| days and have had a fire in your room three
timesand your bill is therefore $132.18, tho
; answer will come back and be announced on
: your gong as follows: One, pause, three,
' pause, two, pause, one, pause, eight. When
there is a cipher in the amount 1 do not
know what the method is, but by using duo
! care in making up tbo bill this need not
j occur
This system is also supposed to keep Its eye
i peeled for policemen and inform tho central
; station where the patrolman is all the tjme;
I also as to his temperature, pulse, perspiration
I and breath It keeps a record ;of this at tho
main oflice on a ticker of its own, and tho
! information may be published in tho society
! columns of the paper in the morning.
Electricity and Spiritualism have arrived
at that stage of perfection where a coil of 1
wire and a can of credulity will accomplish a !
great deal. The time is coming when even
greater wonders will bo worked, and with *
electric wires, the rapid transit trains and ]
the English sparrows under the ground, tho ,
dawn of a better and brighter day will bs I
ushered in. The car driver and tho track- j

THE YOUNG PEOPLE.
“Little boy,’’said a gentleman, “why do
yon carry that umbrella over your head • It’s
• not raining.” “No.” “Aid the sun is not
i shining.” “No.” “Then why do you carry
i it?” “ ’Cause when it rains pa wants it, an’ ,
it’s only this kinder weather that I kin git

• A bright little 3-year-old wanted his a untie
, to play with him. She said sho ■fras too old.
He hunted around until ho found the mar
chino oil can, then brought it to h r and
said; “Now I’ll oil up tho old machino so

A little girl while on a visit to her grand
mother had been seriously ill, and, as she

* uinKing it would bo very smart to use a long
word, she wrote homo, “Dear mamma, I am
happy to say that I am convulsive.”
My little 4-year-old Mabel camo to me the
other morning to button her apron-—which is
ingeniously contrived to fasten behind for
some unknown feminine reason—and
thoughtfully remarked: “If I could get be
hind myself I could do It.”
I said to my little son, years old: "That
is all the jelly you can have, dear; make it
go as far as you can." Quick as a flash came
i the answer: ‘TH make it go as far as my
I stomach."
Little 3-year-old Arthur was pulling the
cat’s tail, when a gentleman visiting there
said: “You mustn't do that; she will bite."
To this he replied: “Cats don’t bite at this
end."
“You don’t moan to say that you under
stand French, Tommy.”’ “Oh! yes, I do.
When ma and pa speak French at tea, I know
I’m to have a powder.”—Babyhood.
The Limo Kiln Chib.
When the meeting had opened in duo and
ancient form Brother Gardner looked up and
down the aisles and said:
“Dar’ nr’ many strange things about dis
yero thing called human natur’. Pay a bar
ber double price fur a shave today an’ fo’
weeks hence ho will hev de check to ask fur a
cash loan.
“If 1 lend Pickles Smith a dollar an’ he kin

Credit In the West.
There are different kinds of pluck. They
don’t always inspire the same respect and
confidence. A man in Arizona sent up to a
firm in San Francisco for some goods. They
were to be furnished on credit, and ho gave
a reference in town. The firm called upon
the reference.
“Do you know this man in Arizona/”
“Know him? Certainly; know him well.”
“What kind of a man is he?”
“He’s a splendid fellow; a good fellow.”
“He’s in business there, isn’t he?”
“Why, yes. He’s an enterprising chap;
got lots of push and pluck.”
“He’s written to us.”
“What does he want?”
“Credit.”
“That’s all right.”
“Well, we’d like to know what kind of a
man he is.”
“What kind of a man he is? Grit! That’s .
what he is. He’s the kind of a man who’d I
put up SI,OOO on a pair of deuces and never
wink.”
“Thank you.”—San Francisco Chronicle.
The Tables Turned. ,
The late Rev. Rural Doan Smithcll, of
Omemeo, Ont., wrote a very illegible hand.
On one occasion he sent a letter to the bishop
of Niagara, who returned it with this in- <
dorsement:
Dear Smith ell—lmpossible to read it.
Yours, Fulled.
The bishop wrote the name and title of his
reverend friend on the envelope, but entirely
forgot the address, wh'?h was supplied in
pencil by the postmaster. Dr. Smithcll im
mediately returned it in an inclosure with
these miiarkd:
Dear Fuller—The next timo you write
please address your letter. Yours,
Emititell.
