I of Galilee. Hulets, the sntuo as tho last
leson.
Jesus and Ills few followers have
turned ther backs upon John the Haptlst
nud'tho vast nscmblage at thu Jordan
ford, and -they have gone tioitlivvniil lo
Ills Galilean homo Once luoie the
animated scene on I lie. slioics of the
Laku appears lo view, nnd they are wel
comed back again hy iclatlves nnd
fi lends. Into syuipatliotletars is poured
the wonderous iecital of lhe events of
tins last fe.v days. Always noted for
JHs chsrictcr and beaiing nuiongst Ills
associates, with the ciieutnstaticrs of
His birth still treasured nnd hallowed
1 amongst Ills loved oups; It now seemed
.T though He wns Indeed to be t .0 MtE
siah of ills neople. When He reached
Ills home lfp found that III mother had
gone to a wedding at Cana, a few- miles
awny. An Oriental Is nothing If he Is not
hospitable, and Jesus nnd those who
vvero vviih Him were invited to thefent
as soon as their presence In tho neigh
boihooJ was known. An Knstprn wid
dlng feu t often l.uts n weu'f, nnd not
only n lallves and friends ate Invited,
but ordinary pasters by are frequently
compelled to tarry long ptiough to drink
the health of the bride and biidcgrr.om.
Xot the liquor of to-day, but tluiu-
juice of the grape. In Its pure ar.d
original slato it Is commended In the
Llblu; when It got older and somewhat
exhilarating It Is not spoken of With
disapproval, but when It became Intoxi
cating, the Hibln condemns) It nntar
Ingly. They bad the julee of the gra; e
at this feast.aud as Iheiiumber of gtti'sis
wns consldeiably Incicased, Il soon be
came apparent to Mary that the supply
would run short. Asa caieful house
w ife she kept ail observant eye on tlio
surroundings, and perhaps assisted In
the dispensation of hospitality. She had
eonliilenco in her son. Thlity jcats of
patient watching and sweet couipaiiiot -ship
had taught her to place gteat icll
nnee in Jesus. It wns but natural,
under the cii euinslauces.lliat she should
go to Hi in with tlie present difficulty,
and trll lilm tliat the supply of wlue
was miming short. There Is no evi
dence that she expected any such tesults
as followed, and she learnt a lesson
when Jesus said to her, "Woman, what
have 1 to do with thee? Mine hour Is
not yet pome." Or, 11:010 propel ly,
"Lady, what is there to me nnd thee."
Let Me nlone, let me take my own
way. "Mine hour Is not yet come.'"
He had passed out from" under the
ni.iti rnal e-.-ire nnd counsel, nml from
hem cforlh He was to obey only the voice
of His Heavenly father. 'Preset.tly.
there was 11 murmur through the house.
Guests called for wine, but the waiters
had to tell them the unpleasant fact that
It was all gone. This was considered
II calamity at sucli a lime, and we can
scarcely conceive the chagrin of the host
or tho dissatisfaction of Ills guests.
Comment wns freely tn.ido. They began
to ccnsitiu the host for being such a
careless provider; some, doubtless,
thought about breaking up the festivities
and going homo. It was a moment of
painful despair to the host it was
Christ's moment, Ills hour bad come.
Standing at the door were several larce
earthen jars which contained water for
the guests to wash In. This is common
In the East. Every house had them.
Heing a wedding feast, there weie a
number of them In use on this occasslon.
Jesus comes forward unpretentiously
out of tlie crowd and tells the servants
to empty those jars and 1111 them with
fresh water. Promptly His order Is
obeyrd, though thev know not tlio rea
son. Wliile this is being rapidly done,
the guests pay no attention to tho pro
ceedings. It is all completed, and there
comes just then a new call for wine.
Hlatik despair Is on the face of him of
whom tlie request Is made, but Jesus
tells lit 111 to draw from one of tli'i water
jars nud take it to tlio master of ceic
monles, who;,u duty it was to taste new
lots of wino that were opened. The
servant drew from tho water jar as
commanded, nud took llm bowl to the
ruler. As soon as bis lips touched the
fragrant fluid be lecngnUed It 11s the
purest, sweetest and riche.it wine he bad
ever tasted, and he was a'.tonlshed.
What did Iho host mean by preserving
the best fluil of the vintige till the end
of the feast? Usually, when men's
palates were satiated with drinking, an
inferior wluo served their purpose Hill
here, ut the close of the festivities, the
host pro luces tho best wino he has. N)
he argued, as he knew not whence the
liquid came. Ho said It was wine; the
tenants know it was water which they
had themselves put Into tho jars. As
It was then freely nsed hy tho assembled
guests, It soon became, known that pure
w ater had, by some strange process, been
changed Into pure. wluo. And ns tlie
truth dawned upon them that tlm wold
of Jesus had produced the change, that
His word had wrought a miracle, they
recognized In Illni a superior bcluu;
whilo His disciples, fresh from thu Im
pressive scenes at Jordan's ford, beheld
III 1 1 1 1 1 1 the Son of God.
