Mrs. Clizbie. and whose funeral occurred there last Saturday, was a visitor in I'nion last Sunday, com-j ing to spend the time with his many vears friend. I). V.'. Foster. Mr. Fos ter built a house for this young man';-, lather 12 vears ago when Mr. Carter was but a boy of nine year;- ng ..1 at tins lime. Following last Sunday's lessen a short time there had many tilings happened. The rulers of the Jews had attempted to get hold of the Christ that they might kill him. and offered rewards to any one who j would assist in his capture. Does ; not this seem a strange oineidence. that people would be trying to kill the Son of God? Still they did it. and are now trying to uer.y him and his power to save the world. ; The lat lesson showed him opeu '. ing the eyes of one born blind and thf understanding of those who were spiritually blind. For this the Mas ter was persecuted and had left jJudea and had gone to Perea whuh ' was on the other side of the river i Jordan. I Just in the suburb of Jerusalem. 1 close to Bethany, there lived a little I tanu'lv of three people. Lazarus Mal tha and Mary, all f rb nils of Jesus.! They knew of the opening 01' the! ec of the oue born blind and 01 Jesus going away with the Discipb -and where they had gone. 1 Thev had not teen gone long r.f-i"1" til Lazarus took sick and daily gtvwj f.'orse until his condition was r.nt both of the village of Pethany ;lhe Master and his Disciples, lor had heard 01 tne coming of .Jesus, and went to meet him. Mary, not knowinc of his coming, still sat iu the house and wondered about her brother's death. When Martha met 1 the Master, she said. "Lord, if you had been here. I am certain broth er would not have died, iiut I know ! whatever you shall ak of God. he ! will give it unto you." Jesus .said junto her, "Thy brother shall rise 'again." Martini replied, "I know that he shall rise again in the resur rection at the last day." Then ernes the great central faith, which this instance : i.d th- whop Script tirrs declare and which the en tire life of the Master teaches, when he replied to Martlia: "1 am the resurrection and the life; li" that believeth in me, though lie were dead, yet shall he live, and wnosie'-ver liveth and br. lb-vc-th in me shall i:er c.ie. Helieve;h thou this." The Muster did not say this alone lie; thai woman there mourning tor J her dead brother: lie -aid it to wt i who now live and all who shall live. even unto the last person wno snail inhabit this earth, ii is up To each nnd every one of u- to bdiev this and make our lives a certainty by living as he has taught. Martha then answered. "Yea. Lord, I believe t tiou art the Christ, the Sou o! Gud. who should come into the world." Forthwith she went and called for Mary, saying. "The- Master ! ha come and calb-ih for thee." Mary comes forth in haste and when .she has gotten to where the Master is, she falls at his feet saying. "Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother would not have' died." The same words, tie- same- thought, the same nianifestiit ion of faith as her sister, Martha. This meeting was one most effe'f tive;. the sisters weeping and grief depicted in their faces, with the- others also weeping. and the Maste r himself, the very embodiment of sympathy, likewise wept and ask ed of them where- Lazarus had been buried. They lead him to the grave, which was a cave; in the side of the mountain and was closed with a stone covering the opening. The Jews, remembering the open ing of the eyes of the one- born blind said. "Why could not this man pre vented his friend dying, if he had such great power?" As they came' to the grave, the Master said. "Tak" the stone away." Then Martha, the- practical, said, "Master, he has been de-ad four days; decomposition has set in: he stink eth now." Jesus ask-d her. "Said I not unto thee, that if thou wouldst believe, thou should sof the glory of ! God?" Then the stone closing the cave was taken away. Imagine the stench which came from the tomb. The' body of the loved one was virtually rotten. That the glory of God might be manifest al! had hern brought to this hour. The master had prayed, "Thy will l.e done." and he was to glorify the Father, and the Father was to gloriiv the- Son. In that test he was had departet: mass.

New Plan Suggested by Senator Kendrick for Occupancy of Government Property. i : i Washington. Dec. s. A new plan for "aided and directed" settb-ni'-nt of government land within fe-de-ral irrigation districts was set forth in a bill introduced today by senator Kendrick. democrat. Wyoming. Th measure would authorize- th" secre tary of the interior to set aside- err acquire at not exceeding $ lu an to-re- int of the nni.ortioiiment sufficient unentered land to comprise I -t 1 . .. l... .1... for each pupil is approximately two dollars and there are 750 pupils on which these districts lose the appor tionment .which means a Iops to the school fund of ? 1.500. This amount would defray the expenses of run ning these seheiols for the extra month. The ruling of the attorney gen eral is that the people of the dis trict have nothing to say about tlie length of the school term; that it is dette-rmined by tlie number of pupils in the district. The largest line of Christmas cards that we have ever carried will now be found at the Bates Eook and Gift Shcp. 10U farms, which if he deemed neces sary, would be- cleared and leveled at government expense.
