On the authority of several English army surpeons, it can be stated that the cause of death is clearly shown in the expression of the face of a corpse on tli field of battle.- Those who have been killed by sword thrusts have a look of repose; if it was a bullet that killed, pain, often of the most fright ful nature, is clearly depicted.

This is the first account that has been written of the enterprise which, at the cost of two and a half million dollars, London has undertaken in the cleans ing and rebuilding of one of the worst of her slums. Mr. Marshall sets forth the character of the people and of the neighborhood, and then describes the improved manner in which the poor will be housed. The article has a di rect bearing on similar problems in the large cities of the United States. All About Western Farm Lands.

Jk FTER a year and al most ten months there was a marked occasion. There Is always something sad about leaving- a among any people, a work only partially successful. As Jesus was moving along the southern border of Galilee, he uttered those sad farewell woes of warning re Dorted in 10: 12-16. Note the threefold work of the mission xf the seventy, as be low. Trace on the map the route of Jesus to Jerusalem, and note the various events that took place. Time. November, A. D. 29. Place. Somewhere in Perea, beyond Jordan. Though possibly near Jerusalem. Route. When Jesus left Galilee the in dications are that he went along the bor der between Galilee and Samaria to the Jordan, crossed the river into Perea, thence southerly to the fords of Jericho, to Jericho, and thence to Bethany. See Luke 9: 51, 52; 10: 3S. The full lesson for to-day is as follows: 25. And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying. Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 26. He said unto him. What is written in the law? how readest thou? 27. And he answering said. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself. 28. And he said unto him. Thou hast answered right: this do. and thou shalt live. 29. But he, willing to Justify himself, said unto Jesus. And who is my neighbor? 30. And Jesus answering said, A cer tain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him. and departed leaving him half dead. 31. And by chance there came down a certain priest that way; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. ' 32. And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the othtr side. 33. But a certain Samaritan, as he jour neyed, came where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion on him. 34. And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35. And on the morrow when he de parted, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him. Take care of him: and whatsoever thou spend est more, when I come again. I will repay thee. 36. Which now of these three, thickest thou, was neighbor unto him that fell among the thieves? 37. And he said. He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him. Go, and do thou likewise. Some explanations to to-day's lesson are as follows: Vs. 29-37. 29. "But he, willing (resolved) to justify himself;" to make himself ap pear right, both to his own conscience and to Jesus. "Said unto Jesus, and who is my neighbor?" For the degree in which he had kept the law of love would depend on the answer to this question. If his neighbor meant his personal friends, "Jew, spelt large," he may have kept the law in some measure, or, at least, had come much nearer it than if "neighbor" included a wider circle. Doubtless this was a dis puted question among the Jews. 30. "A certain man went (was going) down from Jerusalem to Jericho." The road, or path for there was no such road as is familiar to us from Jerusalem went down literally, to Jericho, the descent in less than twenty miles being about 3,500 feet. "Fell among thieves." robbers, brigands. On this very road an Knglish baronet. Sir Frederic Henniker, was strippd and murdered by Arab robbers in 1820. "He was probably thinking of the parable of the Samaritan when the assassin's stroke laid him low." Porter's Palestine, 1.151. Cambridge Bible. 33. "But a certain Samaritan." The Samaritans were half heathen, a mixed race of Jews and Gc-ntiles, accepting the Pentateuch only as their bible, erroneous in some points of doctrine, and greatly despised by the priests and Levites. "The Jews have no dealings with the Samar itans." Note, in this connection, the noble spirit which Christ showed in this picture of a Samaritan, for it was but a short time before this that he had himself been rejected by Samaritans in such an un gracious way that the disciples wished to invoke fire from heaven upon them (Luke 9: 51-56). Moreover, it required great moral courage to thus exalt a Samaritan before Jews. "Had compassion on him," a com passion so strong that it overcame selfish ness and all sense of fear. 34. "Bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine." The wine was poured in to cleanse the wound, and the oil to as suage the smart. They were highly es teemed remedies. "Set him on his own beast." His care of the wounded man must have consumed considerable time; but this was the greatest magnanimity, and much more than common kindness re quired. Real love does not ask how little, but how much it may do. Jacobus. "To an inn," more like our hotel than the com mon khan. "And took care of him:" gave him his personal attention, which is more costly and more blessed than all our money. 35. "And on the morrow ... he took out two pence" (denarii): from his girdle. Shilling is a more exact translation of "danarius" than penny. It is worth about seventeen cents.. But two such pence would be equivalent to three dollars in our day. "Whatsoever thou spendest more," etc. He did all he could, consistently with his other duties. 8fc "Which now of these three . . . was (proved) neighbor unto him." The Lord's question has' been admirably put as, "Which now-of these three understood best what thou desirest to know?" Sadler: 37.- "Go; and-de thou, likewise." That is, your question Is answered by yourself : "He to whom you ought thus to show mercy in order to become his neighbor is your neighbor." The Modern Good Samaritan. Both as Individuals and as a nation, we are to treat the poor, the despised, the outcast, the degraded as our neighbors, and give them all possible aid, and not pass them by ou the other side.
