With tho llllbustor in tho senate against revenue legislation broken, after ono of tho most HnipiM tuous sessions of recent years, the Blxty-fourth congress Monthly entered upon the last week of its otllcial ex istence still facing extraordinary legis lative congestion. Republican leaders who had threat ened to defeat tho emergency revenue bill by dilatory tuctlcs agreed to u final voto on tho measure when ron i fronted with thu democratic determin ation to hold the senate in continuous session.

In tho prohibition cam paign of laBt fall every speech pro ceeded upon tho theory that it was to banish tho saloon, but not to prevent Individuals obtaining a reasonable amount from outsldo tho statu for prlvato use.

LESSON FOR MARCH 4 JESUS FEEDS FIVE THOUSAND. l.KHHON TKXT-Jolin C ML MOI.DP.N THXT-lllvc uh this tl.iy our Jully bri'iuL Mutt. 6.11. This parable marks the high level of the year of our Lord's popularity. It Is such nn Important miracle as to be the only one recorded In nil four gospels. Be sure to ui a good har mony. The returning twelve (Matt. 11:1) nro taken by their muster to n dcxert pluce that they might find rest (Mk. 0:.'U) and that he might comfort their hearts over the death of John the Baptist (Matt. 1-1:1-11!). Tho multi tude would not grant them the right use of their leisure, but Hocked to this retreat In the desert. They followed that they might listen to his gracious words, nnd perhaps behold sonic new wonder (v. 1!). Carlisle said he saw in England "forty millions, mostly fools." Jesus saw the multitude, ,and was iiioumI, not with sarcasm, but with compassion which took u tangible form of service. Mark tells us (fcltl) that Jesus was first of nil teaching the mul titude. It Is better to teach a man how to help himself than to help the man. We should not be surprised at Philip's slowness of fnlth. Moses In a like mumicr wns once nonplussed us to how to feed the multitude In the wilder ness. (Num. ll:l!l-l!:i). It Is not so much how great the need nor how lit tle wo possess; rather, Is that little given over to God? Andrew, who had revealed Jesus unto Peter, discovers ns though In desperation a boy whoso mother had thoughtfully provided him with a lunch, consisting of five bnrley biscuits and two small herring (v. ) ; nt least that much remained. This Is a great commeiltnry upon the tldo of Interest at this time, thnt tho boy should not hnvc eaten his entire lunch, for tho boy's hunger Is proverbial. It seems ns though Jesus emphasizes the helplessness of tho disciples In order that he may show his power. Ills com mand "Glvo ye them" (Mk. 0:37) tenches us that we are to give such ns we hnve, and not look to others nor to do our charity by proxy (Prov. 11:24-1.P). Again tho Savior iiBks his disciples as though he would touch them tho resources of his kingdom. Give what you have, nnd he will bless nnd Increase It to the supplying of tho needs of n multitude. Tho secret of success wns when ho took up tho lonves, nnd, "looking up," God nlso saw that day nnd blessed It. We need to observe the systematic procedure. Tho people aro seated or reclining upon tho ground In ranks or In companies, tho innster blessing nnd breaking the boy's cakes, giving first to the disciples. God works miracles through human ngencles only. Tho result of this sys tematic procedure wus that they wero nil satisfied, "filled" (v. 11!). Luke adds that "all did eat" (Lie. 0:17). Not alone; however, wns there divine order und lnvlshness, but there wero economy und thrift us well, for Jesus gave care ful direction ns to the fragments. Tho lnvlshness Is shown by the fact that the baskets Into which the fragments wero gathered wero each probably lurgo enough In which to sleep. This conservation process wns a slinging rebuke to the Improvident orientals nnd to present-duy prodigals of that wonderful bounty with which God bus blessed our land. God gives to us thnt wo may use for other. Joy dies unless It Is shared. Jesus Is the living bread (John 0:48), und will satisfy hunger und life even ns bread generates In tho human body heat, vitality and power; so he would still feed tho hungry soul of mankind. We havo ut hand the word, and It Is for lack of It that 'men die in the deepest, truest sense of that word. The poverty und perplexity of tho disciples In his pres ence nnd In tho presence of this grent need nro being repeatd over and over today, und yet It Is nbsurd. We have not enough to feed the multitude. Our few loaves of nmusements, mentul ac tivities and social service will not feed them, but when we break unto them tho Living Bread, they havo enough und to spare. The difficulty with the distribution of material bread for the needs of mankind Is not that there Is not enough grain, but rather that In tho process of distribution certain com panies of men can control the fruits of the earth, and withhold them from tho consumer for their own profit. Is there not a parable In this for the church In that It Is so much concerned with Its own joys, pleasures und profits that It Is withholding from the mass of mankind, especially In tho foreign field, tho bread which alone can bring life and Immortality to light? Summary: (1) Tho hope of tho world's salvation Is In tho wonderful power of God In multiplying thu little wo glvo to him In the wuy of service. (2) If wo bring no gift, how can God bless man? Compare this boy's serv Igo with tho service of thu little maid In Nanmun's household. (3) Conservation of the fragments, using well or wasting tho fragments of time, of opportunity, etc., makes till tho differcuco between success mid fail ure. (4) Let nothing bo lost.
