Lesson
for
October 14.
1STR01)PCTI0N".-In tie mini-try S Jesus
notliini; of its outvv.iid fijline was niou- ic
IiiaiKiiblc than tho -.uililm ti.insltions. He p.Ksctl
fieiiicntly, indeed constantly, fiom one place to
another, fiom one tlieme to another. lie Ii ut
no nbidins city, neither did lie have any out
line of tlioiiglit upon which Ho dUrouracil. As
lit- moved about ninonp men He allowed them to
tliiust in upon Him without notice any question
oi 'iem.uk .it their pleasure, and He it-plittl, ui.
w-a.vs with iliieelness and simplicity, and Ho was
never siiipiied, never unable to Rive ansvvtr or
to ailoul instruction. litis occasional and Inci
dental method was the sivtica possible test upon
IIU ability. No mere man could endure it and
come forth without mistake. Most men pie.
meditate nnd nuanire their thoughts, and in our
times the most gifted niinisteis and lettures re
dure eveijthii.ir they say to wilting, unwilling
to tiust thcniselvca to the hour of their ser
lce. Our lesson today contains a passage that
belongs to the spontaneous discuine of Jeuus
and meals His skill.
OCCASION-liile sitting at meat in the
house of n 1'li.irUcr on the Sabbath diy (th.
xlv :1), Jt-aus was speaking on the subject ol
humility (Wises 7-11) mentioning two Instanc
es, somewhat lehted, u wedding ami a fenst,
in wlileli that excellent virtue might propel ly
be e.eipscd (Piov. .xv: "l). One ot those
sitting at the talde at tlu time, tliuiat In a
reinnrk ipilli foreign to the subject In hand.
Wo havo no ineain ot knowing the imiiio or nio
tlvo of this pcuoii, and the inoie one studio
vvoids tho greater will the surpilse lie at the
att. It has been suggcted that he was railed
out by something omlted from the narrative.
Others think lie was a setret cnpmy, desiring to
entangle Jesus and prepare for the rlinrgo of
lirason, on which He was subsequently in-raignt-il
(l.uko xlil: 2). Some support for this
last thought is found In the fact that there
weie piesent (Verse 1) those who were watching
Illm with an evil i-jp. It Is more probable
that tho nnn wis a friend, that lie bellcwd
what he said. He may havo wathed tho con
clusion liy a seiies ol rrllettlons, partly upon
what had Just hern spoken, partly upoii'foimrr
utUi.inccs ol Jesus (Mitt, villi II), for the ad
dicsscs weie so wonderful c to make a deep
iinpiesslon, causing n frequent nnd wide repeti
tlon, A sudden outbuist, breaking in upon the
Masters Icaililng must have awakened sill prise,
m,ESSr.l)NnSS. A great Until was uttered by
tills unknown pemon, when Ho said "Messed il
ho that shall rat bread In the kingdom ol Ood."

Ono of the now Conervntory teachers,

tho Church of the Immnculute Concep

to him, when he will bo assisted by
vocal talent'. Mr. Pennington, who has
heard Mr. Huffmaster at the organ,
speaks very highly ot his work. Th
admission to the recital will be a "sil

The recital given by the Conservatory

audience which took up standing room
nnd extended Into the corridor. The
recital was notable in the fact that af

a splendid rendition of a Mozait piano

stiects and lanes ot the city, beaiing the new
instiuctions. A glad response might be t
pectPd to Ids invitation. Surely the beggars at
the stiett comeis, half fed and half clad (Matt.
xwi: 11) lould di-siio nothing moie than a table
bountifully supplied with food. The maimed
and halt, shunned by all as divinely atllittid,
nnd the blind, populaily esteemed (John Is: 2)
to be sinners or the sons of slmifrs, denied rec
ognition, outcast and forsaken, could legard
themselves highly favored by this call to the
house of the rich. But even these were mens
uieably indifferent, when accosted and Invited
to the supper. The servant returned to say
that he had been only partially successful, that
while some came, the guest chamber was not'
full. It became ntcessaiy for the hoit to ic
sort to the most earnest effort. "do out
quickly into the highways and hedges and com
pel them to come In," lie said. Vac eveiy proper
and reasonable method in the most urgent man
ner to obtain guests. ThLs was the extreme
aspect of the parable. It showed that men
were teluctant to accept Christ, even when by
so doing they might obtain the very things
which they long most ol all to possess. It rip
resented that protratted, diligent (Psalm exui:
C), and self-sacrificing effort which ministers
must make II they would win the souls ol men
(Lain. Hi: iS).
IIKJIXTIOS, The tlinm ol the parable was
reached In the last feature, The Character of
the feast had been changed. Kroin a social
recognition of those entitled to honor, It had
become a gratuitous oiler to those who had no
claim for attention; fiom a mark ot legard for
equals and friends it was converted into a dis
play of kindness to inferiors, And those In
feriors were on such a low plane that they
weie scared) able to appreciate the pruffeitd
favor. The rich man has gone begging among
heggais for guests. Xovv comes the sequel to
the .stoiy. The host detlarea to his servant that
because of the shameful tieatmcnt vvhleli he has
received none of those will bo admllcd who were
first Invited. They weie to bo totally and pti.
nuncntly excluded (Piov. Ii J !."), and that
lact was maue ino ground for urging the scl
vnnt to diligence. The exclusion ot one ilass

since his Initial opera, "Oberto," was
suae; In Milan, and after his wonderful
seiies nf twenty-seven operas It would

tluy a twenty-eighth In the shape of
tho much iiiinored nnd much denied
setting of FShukespeate's "Tempest,"
for which Boito Is said to have written
tho libretto. As has beon tiuly said,
