These words are In the parable of the marriage of tho king's son Intend ed by our Lord to announce the for feiture of the Mes sianic kingdom, temporarily, at least, by the Jew ish people, and the proclamation of the gospel of grace to the Gen tiles. One wishes there were oppor tunity to go into the details of the parable and apply Its precious teach ings, but there Is time only to em phasize one point, and that Is the duty and privilege of "highway gathering." By this Is meant the preaching of the gospel, not mere ly by the ordained ministry, but by laymen as well, who know by experi ence the redemption which Is In Christ Jesus our Lord. These beautiful summer days and evenings afford unusual opportunity for this In the utilizing of our parks, and vacant lots, and church steps and street corners for reaching multitudes with the bread of life. The prophets of the Old Testament were open-air preachers. Jesus Christ and his apos tles were open-air preachers. Some of the greatest evangollsts in all the days were open-air preachers. How t could Whltefleld and the Weble'ys have reached the masses when church doors were closed against them, unless they bad taken to the open air? What an open-air preachel was Gen. William Booth! Today many of the ablest Christian laymen of Great Britain, as well as the clergy, are found standing on improvised plat forms at the street corners telling out the gospel of salvation, and urging their fellow men to accept the offer of atonement through Jesus Christ. 1. This is enjoined upon you. Chris tian brethren, as a duty to God and to your neighbor. Remember the words, "Go ye Into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature;" "Ye shall bo witnesses unto me." These commands are not to ecclesiastics merely but to all the disciples of Christ. And then what shall we say of the command, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself?" Have we ever felt, or shown, that love until we have actively interested ourselves in the salvation of our neighbor? To feed blm when he Is hungry, or clothe him when he Is naked, or visit him In sick ness, or comfort him in his aflllction Is not enough, except as we try to save him for tternlty. 2. It Is enjoined upon you as a per sonal advantage in the sense of devel opment and In sense of reward. If we want to grow In the spiritual life we want to exercise ourselves in Its min istry. If we would know more of the love and the power of God towards ourselves, we must experiment with what we now have In dealing with others. In this, as In that which Is more material, the principle holds good, "Give and It shall be given unto you." And then what about our re ward In the future as well as In the present? At the flnol reckoning of re deemed souls the same rank ad glory will not be given to the Indolent and unfruitful as to the earnest and self denying. The same Scripture which says In one place, "Look unto me and be ye saved," says In another, "Look usaio yourselves that ye receive a full reward I" "They who turn many to righteousness shaft shine as the stars forever and ever." 3. It Is enjoined upon you as a po litical necessity. This may be regard ed as the weakest and most selfish of the arguments, and for that reason should have come first rather than last, but there are special reasons for stating It at the last. What political and social problems are pressing upon the attention of thoughtful citizens, and especially Christian citizens, at this time! In all our great cities the needy classes are multiplying every year, and with them those who repre sent the Ignorance, immorality and crime of all great populations. The conflict between capital and labor, and employers and employees, Is losing none of its intensity, "now rumbling ominously like some far-off earth quake, and now breaking out Into tho volcanic eruption of the disastrous strike." At the other extremity look at the luxury and extravagance, the heartless worldllness and the grasping selfishness of many of the' so-called "upper classes." Ad then the strain of theBe days in maintaining a strict neutrality with reference to the awful European war. These things threaten the life of our nation, the peace and prosperity of our homes, and are a startling chal lenge to the Christian church. We must go forth on a new crusade. Wu must go out into the highways and gather together all, as many as we find both bad and good. We muBt give our selves enthusiastically to the work by prayer, by "money, by personal en deavor. The Gospel Is the only rem edy that can meet these evils for all are symptoms of a common disease, and that Is sin. What can eradicate it save "the washing of regeneration and the renewing of the Holy GhoBt"? Other agencies have only "skinned and filmed the ulcerous sore" snd left the constitutional ailment to break out In another place. Notbjng can purify so ciety but that which purifies the indi vidual heart, and nothing can do that but the cleansing blood of Jesus ap plied by faith In his precious name. 0fj All Sorts of Just how it happened Is one of those things that cannot be explained, but In this year of grace May and June beheld the summer girl (and the matron) bedecking themselves with light neckpieces of fur. No mat ter how summery the gown and hat, the thin silk hose and light, low shoes, a scarf of white fox hugged the throats of about nine out of ten of those who keep up with the merry pace of fads. In the wake of summer furs which looked especially well with white turbans came other neckwear, and now there Is a limitless .variety from which to choose, with a growing de mand to Inspire Its expansion. Next after white fox come the angori pieces. These are shown In short col lars, like that at the upper rlpht In the picture, and In short boas. Smart big pompons made of the fur, to match these neckpieces, are worn on small hats and turbans.

These shapes and the small um brella style, like those shown in the picture, are displayed In the shops In green, cerise, blue, tan, and other colors, banded with black-and-white stripes or with Dresden designs in flowered borders. Black-and-white checkerboard silks have been UBed with fine effect on both white and colored models. Vivid green, bordered with black-and-white stripes, and a darker green with a wide band of Dresden ribbon Inserted, are among the most attractive and the most use ful designs and have been almost as successful as the various black-and- Halr Decorations. Ostrich tips are appearing once more In fashionable hair ornaments, but perhaps the most Btriking of hair ornament revivals Is the bi Spanish comb.

SKIXERB, Artlng Director of Bunclay School Courae, The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR JULY 25 SOLOMON DEDICATES THE TEM PLE, LESSON TEXT-I Kings 8:22-30. GOLDEN TEXT My houae almll be rnlli'ri a house of pruycr for all people. Iaii. W:7. To teach this lesson properly refer ence must bo made to the building of the temple (ch. 6), to the building of Solomon's palace and that for his Lgyptlan wife (ch. 7), and also to the renewal of the ark from the "tent of meeting," in ZIon, to its new dwelling place In the temple. The time con sumed In erecting the temple (seven years, I Kings 6:38), the number of men employed (approximately 150, 000), and the skill and magntflfcnce ot the building (I Kings 6:7) will serve as an interesting introduction to the dedication ceremonies proper. Those present on this occasion are suggested in verses two and three; the time consumed was seven days (v. 66) and the condition of Solomon's heart (v. 5) Is seen in the multitude of his sacri fices. The temple marks the begin ning of a new era in Hebrew history, one of great outward glory, though It was not one of Inward strength as the speedy breaking up of the king dom and the final captivities give evi dence. Professor Ileecher sets the date of this event as being "about the twelfth year of Solomon's' reign say 1012 B. C." There has probably not been in all time a sacred building Its equal for magnificence or situation. Bead any good Bible dictionary for Its description. It is a type of the Chris tian (I Cor. 3:10-16). I. Solomon's Veneration, vv, 22-21. Solomon's temple was a place of sacri fice but more than all It was a house of prayer (Matt. 21:13) and his dedi catory prayer is the longest prayer recorded In the Scriptures. In It Is to be found no mention of the temple as a place of sacrifice, yet no prayer is heard apart from sacrifice. Each article of the temple furniture had its special teaching but the greatest teach ing of all was that of God's proximity and his readiness to hear the petitions of his servants. Solomon personally brought his thanks and his petition before the altar whereon lay the sacri fice (see Heb. 9:22; 10:19, 20; John 11:6), and even there he "spread forth his hands" in token of supplication, adoration and worship. We can "come boldly to a throne of grace" and need not priest or sacrament, for we have one who "ever llveth to Intercede for us," Christ Jesus. Solomon's words of adoration are deeply significant. There Is reverent boldness and pious confidence In his words. It Is a great blessing when the leader of f.r.y people sets them a pattern of jc'-. piety and prayer (Prov. 14:34). In this Solomon Is a type of "great David's greater son," (Heb. 7:25). This prayer Is twice recorded (see 2 Chron. 6:13-42) and it begins with an acknowledgement of God's new plea. In verse 23 two titles are given God (see Ex. 24:10; I Sam. 1:17; Ps. 41:3; Isa. 41:17; 43:3). God Is so great that there is none other with whom to compare him. II. God's Word Verified, vv. 23, 26. Solomon repeatedly referred to the fact that he has fulfilled God's prom ise to his father David in building the temple. God is a covenant-keeping God. Upon this fact Solomon voices his plea for future blessings. Every part of this prayer Is worthy of careful study. Solomon's "there fore" (v. 25) reveals his acceptance of God's words to David (ch. 2:4). This word of Jehovah Ib sure and steadfast (Jer. 33:17-26) and Solomon's use of God's promise (2 Sam. 7:12-16) is an exhortation to us that we base our petitions upon some one of God's promises. Praying thus we can rest assured that our prayer is In the will of God and therefore that it will be heard (I John 5:14, 15). III. God's Vision, vv. 27-30. See also 2 Chron. 7:1-3, 12-22; I Kings 9:1-9. As the king concluded his prayer the cloud resting over the holy of holies grew bright and dazzling and fire fell upon and consumed the sacrifices; the priests stood without In awe and amazement; the whole people fell upon their faces, and worshiped and praised Jehovah. Even with all of this special manifestation Solomon did not con ceive of Jehovah a "local, tribal deity." Earth could not contain him, nor the heaven and the heaven of heavens (v. 27). God fills the whole universe (Ps. 129:716) yet he did and does give us special local manifesta tions of himself. It is this same vast God who dwelt fully In Jesus Christ (John 1:14; Col. 2:9). "Will (such a) God Indeed dwell on the earth?" He who created the universe? Yet this God turned this vision towards the temple "day and night" Solomon cov eted such scrutiny for in that temple God had said: "My name shall be there" (v. 29) and his nome U "Love" (I John 4:8; see also 2 Chron. 6:20, 40). This prayer Is for us granted in him whom the temple typifies, our Lord Jesus (John 14:13, 14). The eyes of God are ever towards him and ready to answer the petition made In his name. There Is a great lesson for the Christian and for the Christians' special places of worship, our churches, In this wonderful promise of Jehovah regarding his name. Accompanying this ceremony was the "Feast of Tabernacles" (vv. 62, 63; 2 Chron. 7:4-11) which usually lasted seven days but on this occasion continued for fourteen dnys. It was a time of great Joy and gladness ot heart for all the goodness and mercy of the Lord (see I Kings 8:65, 66; 2 Chron. 7:9, 10). Solomon assumed that Israel would constantly be sin ning (vv. 34, 36. 39, 43, 49). This proved to be true but no matter how frequently they sinned forgiveness was at hand It they truly repented and turned to Jehovah.

SHUNNED BY THE MEXICANS Caves Supposed to Be "Possessed by the Devil," Into Which None Willingly Enter. "Ancient caves in different parts of Mexico often contsin the skulls and bones of former Inhabitants, whether prehistoric or of later times, some times containing fine fashioned flint Implements. "The natives, as a rule, fear to go into these places. 'Do not enter, se nor,' they will ssy, as, with Anglo Saxon lack of superstition, you deter mine to explore them; 'some evil be falls those who meddle with the re mains of the dead.' "And if they are prevailed upon to assist they cross themselves devoutly before descending or entering. Weird tales they unfold afterward of men who have gone Into such places and found their exit barred by some evil spirit, they themselves having been encountered dead and cold upon the cavern floor when discovered by thelf relatives, who had searched for the missing one! "According to the peons, the scenes of murder or wickedness which may have taken place In such situations are enacted again to the turrltied vision of th unhappy witness who had the temerity to venture lto these places possessed of the devil, for the king of darkness Is an ever-present and active element of the poor Mexican's superstitious world."
