Director of Kvtn ltiR Department, Tho Moody Ulblo In stitute of, Chicago.) LESSON FOR MAY 5. POVERTY AND RICHES. LESSON THXT-T.k. G:2fl-:e nnrt 10:19-31. OOI-DKN TEXT "A ninn's Ufa eon-d. itctli not In tho nlmmlnncn of tho things 'hi) powcsBOth." Luke 12:15. Last week wo wcro studying tho fun damental principles of this new king dom Jesus enmo to cstnbllsh. Today our Btudy presents another or uis Booming pnrndoxes, viz., tho blessed ncss or the happiness of poverty, hun ger and persecution. Spoken primari ly to tho twelve, Jesus Intended theso words for all tho people present nnd prospective. Jopus Is distinctly tho poor man'B friend. Ho knew tho mean ing of hunger nnd thrlst, of weeping nnd mourning, and so contrasts tho Joy that Bhnll bo to theso "happy ones" with tho "woo" that shall como to thoso who from out of their Joy and their abundance fall to respond to tho needs of mankind. What It Is and Why. Tho last half of the leBBon Is intend ed to illustrato tho teachings of tho first. Let vb look nt the illustration. "A certain rich man." Ho wns not or sulllclcut lmportnnco even to men tion his name. How few rich mon over succeed in really perpetuating their names. Not one succeeds in any menu uro nt alt except as in sotno munnor ho emulates the life and teachings of Jesus. How few monuments realty perpetuate names. Character alono Ib what lives. This rich man, however, did not lose out Blmply becnuso ho was a rich man. Verse 25 tells us why he was in anguish. His llfo had been that of a selfish seeker and ho had had his reward. Now conditions have changed. Once clothed in purpto and faring sumptuously, now ho is the beggar. Ignoring the cry of need nt his gate now he Ib compelled to make his cry afnr off. "A certain beggar named Lazarus." It is better to be a beggar vainly seeking a few crumbs and to rest in Abraham's bosom than- to live in lux urious ease, ignoring the cry of the needy and to live in hell hereafter. Lazarus did not gain glory hereafter becauso he was a beggar, but rather because of his character. Angels an nounced the coming of the Son of Man, angels welcomed tho returning of this son of mankind. Which of the twain, Dives or Lazarus, really enjoyed life? Eternity is a long time, It begins where im'aginatlon ends. Tho name Lazarus really means "God-helps" and God always does help the poor. Lazarus had some frlcndB for we read that tho dogs showed their sym pathy. It is always true that thoso poor as poverty aro most ready to re spond to the cry of need, and out of their penury will glvo tho most abun dantly to relieve distress. Leaves All Behind. "Tho rich man died also." Thus ended his llfo of easo nnd luxury for shrouds have no pockets. "How much did ho leave? He loft it nil." All of his loved ones, nit of his hopes wero left behind. There Is.Bomething np pallingly sad in tho death of a rich man who trusts only to his wealth, having no faith In God. Millions for a moment of'tlmo. The sarcusm 'of Jesus' words is quite apparent, "and ho was burled." Only a clod of earth, no longer useful, of tho earth, earthy, bury htm, get him out of sight. But did this end all? vBy no meanB, for when he reached the other Bide he did not lose consciousness nor reason. No soul sleeping there. He taw, he observed, he felt, he remem bered, he reasoned. Back upon earth he had brothers who were following his same mode ot life. Here he was suffering, crying for "mercy," for an alleviating touch ot cold water, yet In that cry there was no note of repent ance. Ho and his brethren had lived tor the tongue and had pampered it, now it, the seat of taste, of bold words, etc.. Is crying for cooling relief. But would those fcohlnd repent even If one were to rise from the dead? No, ex cept that they might escape a like tor ment. The desires of their hearts would bo the same. Being out of state's prison Is ot Itself no particular honor. The message of Jesus strikes deeper than outward forms and cere monies. It is the heart motive where by we are to be Judged. Dives sought to excuse or to Justify himself (v. 60), but Abraham tells h,lm plainly that both ho and his brethren had had suf ficient light. If they will not listen to Moses (the Pentatouch) and to tho prophets neither will they repent even though one came from the dead. That being so how much greater condemna tion must rest upon those who reject him, who is greater than theso? Ono who js a greater witness to the mercy and love'of God. The disciples were poor in both thla world's goods and one of them, Mat thew, adds that tho happy ones aro, thoso who are poor in spirit als6. They, know tho meaning of hunger and of privation and were ready to learn of him. Jesus is not so much in this il lustration trying to give us a picture; ot the hereafter, of the future llfo aa bo is to show the results of our living in this present llfo. He shows us -plainly that there ace different states over there and that these states are the1 result of our conduct in the Ufa we now live. Riches are n temptation, a temptation to gain fraudulently. CHILD RUN OVER BY ENGINE IS NOT HURT Falls Between the Rails From a Sled Which Is Demolished by the Pilot. Chicago. When a switch cnglno on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad pnsscd over tho body" of four-year-old Mnrgory Johnson In East Chlcngo tho other af ternoon, Mary Gnrcpn, tho littlo girl's nurse, who had been giving her charge a rldo on tho sled when tho accident occurred, fainted bosldo tho tracks. The nurse had Just cleared the tracks, had felt tho sled being struck from her grasp and caught a fleeting She Felt the Sled Being Struck jllmpBo of the engine passing ovor the body of tho child. When she returned to consciousness live minutes later slie felt the soft pressure of two little lands on her cheeks and heard a child sh voice whispering In her ear: "Margery wants a ride." The little girl was uninjured. When :ho nurse had pulled the sled in order :o clear, the track ahead of tho onrush !ng engine the child had fallen off, di rectly In the locomotive's path. Her imall body, however, escaped the lender and remained untouched by ivheels and crossbeams during the juick passago of the engine. The sled, ttruck by the side of tho engine, was lemollshed. Just as the sled was on the tracks :he woman saw the black shadow of die approaching locomotive. The lulck jerk she gave the rope to bring :ho little girl safely across the tracks nstead left tho child directly betweer :he rails. TOWEL SEWED UP IN WOMAN Remained In Patient Five Weeks Be. fore Being Recovered by Another Operation. New York. A towel, a yard long md a foot wide, with a red border, was accidentally sewed up inside of Mrs. Molllo Myers when she was op erated on In St. Vincent's hospital in November, 1905, according to an affi davit filed with the supremo court by Dr. Benjamin Friedman, formerly of this city, now living In Hungary. Mrs. Myers held Dr. Hermnn J. Boldt re sponsible and has sued him for dam ages. , Ha Recovered the Towel. Doctor Friedman asserts that when bo recovered the towel, after It bad remained Ave weeks Inside Mrs. My ers it bore the label "St. Vincent's hospital." "A few days later," alleges Doctot Friedman, "I met Doctor Boldt, who told me that he had sent the towel to the New York County Medical associ ation as a curiosity, indicating the great vitality of the patient. Mrs. My era told me she was going to sue Doc tor Boldt, and I told him of thio. He said he was Insured against such ac cidents and that be did not car." LIKE THE WOLF AND LAMB Inoffensive Creatures Most Unjustly Charged With Sudden Attack of BloodthlrstlneGs. A man who was niught In the act of skinning n neighbor's sheep, eov cred his ctnlinriasHtui'tit by declaring that no sheep could bite hint and live. Tho logic of this Is equaled hy that of tho Yankee soldier who once had n nnnow escape front an enraged gan der. Tho men of n certain Maine regi ment, which wau In the enemy's coun try In IStiL. considered the order "no foraging" an additional and uncnllcd for hardship. Ono afternoon about dusk, a soldier was seen heating u rapid retreat front tho rear of a farm house menr by, closely pursued by n gander with wings outspread, whose feet bccnied scarcely to touch tho ground, and from whose beak Issued a succession of angry screams, Tho fugitive was not lenssured by. the cries of tho gander's owner: "Hold on, man, hold on! lie won't hurt you!" "Call off your gander! Call him off!" shouted tho Hoeing soldier. Neither man nor gander stopped until IiihIi1o( the eainpllnoH, when tho soldier's' ft lends tollovod him or his llerco pur Hiier with tho aid of the butt of a lnustiet. "Did that gander think he could thtiBu mo llko that nnd live!" tho soldier exclnlmed, as he surveyed the outstretched bird; but ho said nothing of tho baited hook, with cod line attached, which might have thrown light on the unfortunate gan der's actions. BABY'S TERRIBLE SUFFERING "When my baby was six months old, his body was completely covered with Inrgo sores that seemed to itch and burn, and cause terrible suffering. The eruption began In pimples which would open and run, making largo sores. His hair camo'out nnd linger nails fell off, and tho sores wcro ovor the entiro body, causing little or no sleep for baby or myself. Great senbs would come off when I removed bis shirt. "Wo tried a great many rcmcdlc l but nothing would help him, till friend induced mo to try tho Cutjcura Soap and Ointment. I used the utl cura Sonp and Ointment but a short time beforo i could see that ho was Improving, and in six weeks' time he was entirely cured. Ho had suffered about six weeks beforo wo tried the Cutlcura Soap and Ointment, although we had tried several othor things, nnd doctors, too. I think tho Cutlcura Rem edies will do all that is claimed for them, and a great deal more." (Signed) Mrs. Noblo Tubman, Dodson, Mont., Jan. 28, 1911. Although Cutl cura Soap and Ointment aro sold by druggists and dealers everywhere, a sample of each, with 32-pngo book, will be mailed free on application to "Cutlcura," Dept. L, Boston. Evidence Put In Too Late. A prisoner was being tried in an English court for murder; evidence against him purely circumstantial; part of it a hat found near tho sccno of tho crime an , ordinary round, blc.ck hat, but sworn to as tho pris oner's. Counsel for tho dofense, of course, made much of tho commonness of the tint." "You, gentlemen, no doubt each of you possess such a hat, of tho most ordinary makb and shapo. Bewaro how you condemn a fellow cicaturo to a shameful death on such a piece of evldcnco," nnd so on. 'So the man' was acquitted. Just as ho was leaving tho dock, with tho most touching humility and simplicity, he said: "If youplpase, my lord, may I 'ave my 'at?" ' Ought to Be Satisfied. Aunt Beulah'B besetting sin was housecleanlng. She cleaned In season and out ot season, causing the fam ily much worry when sweeping brought on an attack of lumbago or carrying out ashes gave her the grip. One day her patient Bister protested. "Why don't you let the maid do those things?" she asked. "She's so careless' groaned Aunt Beulah; "I'd rather have the pain than the dust I'd rather have the pain." Then tho Smart Little Boy Jumped into the conversation. "Well, you've got the pain," he remarked, "what are you kicking about?" Cause of the Row. "Mrs Brown had a dreadful quar rel with hor husband last night?" "That so?" "Yes. She bid eight on a hand that was good for ten, not thinking Mr. Brown would overbid her, but bo did.
