a mnn who hnd ninrrlcil because tho
woman had much money, nlthough no
beauty. Naturally, after the wedding
ceremony and tho acquisition of tho
bride's llnnnclal resources, tho hus
bnnd was never very attentive to her.
Another member of the company In i
'whlrh the couple were appearing was,
'however, far more nppreclntlvo of tho i
lady's charms, and proceeded to mnko
love to her In an ardent but stealthy
manner. The Krnnd llnnle came ono
cvcnlni; when tho nctor discovered
tho other man kissing Ills wife, Tho
fond lover stood petrllled with fear,
and expected to bo shot down tho
next moment.
No such thing happened. Tho out
raged husband only lifted his hands
toward tho celling with a gesture of
Intense surprise, and exclaimed:
"Merciful heavens! And he didn't

LESSON FOR MARCH 24.
FEASTING AND FASTING.
I.l'.SSO.V TKXT-M.irU MS-I.'
(U)l,)i:.S Ti:.T "I fame not to ouM
till' llKlili'otl, lint hlllllerM." Mink 2.17.
l'vl Mntthow, ho calls hiniHi'lf by
tho oppinhrlmiH tide of "the pulillcnn,"
reprt'hrnlH (lint cliiss of grafting pa
triots who through all ages haw ex
I'lnpllllcd the seven canllual points of
u polltk'iaii, viz., "the two haveu and
live llshi'8." Men who will weep over
Heiitlini'iital patriotism and serve tho
oppressor for piulll. Hotter still, how
iir, Matthew Is a type of conversion
in thai ho left all and followed .Ti'sus.
So weeping, but rather great rejoicing
for ho made a feast; tu record of
nreat conviction, though he had
enough to act at once upon .Jesus'
Invitation. It was a brier, sudden
call, but what vnsl results were In
volved. First a demonstration upon
his part, secondly n demonstration
upon the part of .lesus, and lastly a
record of the life or the Master that
has been termed tho most Important
book over written. Chronologically
this lesson follows that of last Hunday.
In Luke's account we are told of the
feast Matthew prepared that he might
entertain Jesus. Home believe that
Jesus began his work by trying to win
the Jews through teaching In their
synagogues mid that, receiving h!m
or not, he turns to those outsldo of
the circle of the scribes and the Phari
sees. He that as It may, we know
they murmured greatly that this rabbi
should consort with publicans and
with sinners.
Came to Call Sinners.
Jesus hears of their complaint and
his leply is a lino bit of irony and
tarcasm. "They that are whole havo
no need of a physical! but they that
aro sick. You self righteous l'hurl
secs, why do you complain If you aro
nil right and theBo be all wrong, why
then not let me minister to those that
need mo?" At the same time Jesus
utters one of his greatest and most
comforting sayings, "I came not to call
tho righteous but sinners."
Jesus chooses one of their own bo
cial outcasts to write tho only dis
tinctly Hebrew account of his life; ono
who had been faithful as a business
man to bo a leader and historian;
one willing to renounce all, sny fare
well to ambition und follow him.
Following this, the disciples of John
tho Ilaptlst and of the Pharisees aro
fasting and they observo that tho dis
ciples of Jesus aro not so engaged.
They came to Jesus with the question
nnd his reply Is a perfectly logical
one. "Why should they fast, am I not
with them'.'" "Do you fast at your
weddings while the bridegroom Is pres
ent?" The day Is to come, however,
when he is to be taken away, then
there shall bo times for fasting.
Jesus has feasted with "many pub
llcaiislicans;" when the bridegroom
returns ho will sit down with many
publicans nnd sinners In glory whom
ho has associated with In order that
he might mvo them. Aro we follow
ing his example? If so, let us bo suro
we do It from tho same motive. Tho
disciples of John did (ho right thing
to bring their perplexities to Jesus.
He answer) their question as wo havo
seen and wo are now in the day ho
mentions when there Is a plnco for
fasting. Jesus tenches us in IiIb ref
erence to tho wine bottles (leather
packs which could bear but ono
stretching process duo to fermenta
tion of tho wine), that wo are to bo
new creatures in him and must leavo
tho old life and habits. We aro not
to mnko patchwork of this new Gos
pel nnd the old law.
His Work That of Physician.
There aro two dllllcultlca thuB pro
rented In this lesson; first, that Jo
bus should hold fellowship with thoso
properly not of his circle or social
standing for ho wbb a rabbi or teach
er, and, secondly, that ho did not nor
did his disciples observo fasting. Jo
siiB admits tho character of the com
pany ho kept, but his reply wns, "I
camo for this purpose to call not tho
righteous but tho unrighteous." His
work was to bo that of n Physician.
He assumes that his authority is not
of man but of God, nnd that this min
istry Is to bring joy. Jesus had emp
tied himself that ho might coino and
when lie wiib t leavo thore it would
bo tlmo enough for his disciples to
fast. JcsuB wns not morely ono who
camo to tench a system of ethics a
llttlo higher than tho prophets. Je
sus is more than a good mnn or even
a holy man; he Is tho Great Physician,
able to heal both body and soul, a
Saviour.
neforo theso lost ones can bo saved,
however, they must realize they aro
lost, for wo cannot save thoso who
will not acknowledge themselveB as
being lost. When wo acknowledge wo
nre sinners ho will savo us (I Tim.
1:15). Turn a deaf ear to his call
and thero 1b no raoro hopo (Luko
13:3).
It hits been suggested that tho par
able of the prodigal son and tho elder
brother was uttered at this feast in
Levi's house; probably not, wo do not
know, but how truly It applies. Tha
prodigal representing thoso lost pub
licans and sinners.
