He tarried at Ephesua oyer m years (xlx., 10; xx., 81), and all the -orinee of Asia heard the word of the lord Las, so that many believed, the name of H Lord Jeaua was mftpnMod, the word of god grew mightily and prevailed, and lloiisands of dollars' worth of bad books rre burned.. Here begins our lesson, jj. "His purpose was to go through Iioedonia and Aohala, where he had been H bis previous tour, but he still tarries in ijii a season while he sends Timotheus and ir.tuj ahead of him into Macedonia. In 1 future lensson we shall have his testimony -to his labors in Asia. Whether sojourn u or journeying his one ambition wax Hit Christ should be magnified in him and laithe might better know Him (Phil. 1., ft III., 10).

Jesus Hijiwlf said, "I am the Way" (Jaa.xlv.,8). In cxix., 1, we read, "Blessed are the inJellled in the way who walk In the law ottlie Lord.

This is the begin ling ol the address of Demetrius, a silver tilth, to his fellow workmen, whom he had called together. His theme was their craft a- trade or manner of making money, a Hbjeot which will get an interested audi ay almost any time. Witness the labor organizations and the strikes often Ra diated therewith in our own day. What iwr will seem t turn mora money into wople's pockets S apt to be an Interesting abject. 16. "Not alone at Ephesus, but almost Uwuffhout all Asia, this l'aul hath per ssded and turned away much people." bat a good testimony to run I, or rather to the Spirit's work through Paul, in the me of the Lord Jesus! The Lord, through bin, bad turned many from idols unto God (IThess. I., 9), so many that the idol Nisl irt? was suffering severely, and those in terred were greatly stirred. J7. "Sot only this our croft Is in .danger lobe set at nought, but also that the tem pled the great goddess Diana should be despised." It would never do to have such magnificence that all tho world worshiped, tepioed, for what would all the world ever do without Plana? Yet three men darad It despise Nebuohndnezzar's Image, which ill the world worshiped, and the time will tome when many will ilaro to despise mother Image, which all tho world will worship (Rov. xtii., 8, 15), choosing death nther than Mich favor. 18. "And whon they heard they were Ml ot wrath and cried out, saying, 'Great li Diana ot the Epheslana.' " Thendos boasted himself to 'be somebody; Hlmon the sorcerer gave out thut himself was ome great one; the coming antichrist will proclaim that ho himself is God, and many till believe it, and great will be bis wrath igtlnst all who oppose him. The devil will lather the armies of earth against God both ittbe beginning and end ot the next thou und years, but all will be overcome by tbe Lamb, for lie Is King of kings nnd Lord of lords (Iter, xlx., 19; xx., 8; xvil., 14; II Thess. II., 4, 8). 29. "And the whole city wos filled with nnfuslon." Confusion nnd chaos are not the work of God, but ot the devil, whether Id an individual or in a household or in the world, nnd therefore some think that the wrl: of the devil may be seen as far back in tbe Bible story ns Gnn. 1., 2; that la the beginning God must havo created ill things good nnd that an enemy was ro iponslblH for the clinos of verso 2. 30,31. Paul would willingly have stood by bis Irlonds, who for his sake ami for Christ's sake were In danger, but his friends vould not suffer him. Ho had alroadv been toned and left for dend, nnd he was ready any time to die for Christ (xiv., 19; xxi., 13). It was never with him a thought of personal comrort, but only of how he could "amity Christ. Sometimes we are com pelled by circumstances to go forward when e would fain keep back and sometimes to keep baok when wa would ruin an forward. Ibe way ot rest Is to do what you can go forward If the way opens, and, if not, stay. 'Do as occasion serve thee, for Ood is with tbee" (1 Sam. x., 7).

Ood sometimes shuts the door, and shuts us In, That lie may speak, perchance through grief or pain, And softly, heart to heart, above the din. May tell some precious thought to us again.

Christ Standing at the Door. To the church at rhiladelphiolt was prom ised that the door should be opened ; but her a church at Laodioca, which bad deliber ately shut its door on the higher life. It was a church that was neither cold nor hot, a lukewarm, IndifTereut, spiritless people, and to such a people, wilfully barring out the revelations ot God, comes tbe Christ in this wonderful IlKUre, standing at the door into a weary traveler, asking to be let in. Buch a picture Just reverses tho common view which ono is apt to have of the religious life. Wo commonly tbluk of truth as hiding itself within its closed door, nnd of our selves as trying to get In to it. We speak of finding Christ, or proving God, or getting religion, as if all theso things were mv.-tferles to be explored, hidden behind doors which must bo unlocked; as if, In the relation be tween man and God, man did all tho searching, nnd God was a bidden God. Hut the fundamental fuet of the religious life Is tlil.s thut the power and lovo of God are seeking man ; that before we lovo Him, Ho loves us; that !iore we know Him, He knows us; that antecedent to our recognition of Him must be our receptivity of Him. Coleridge saiil that ho believed Iu the HI nlo because It found 111 111. It is for the same reason thnt man believes in God. God llmls 111 in. It Is not the sheep vtlilelt go looking for the shepherd ; It is t'.io shci herd who llnls tho shoop nnd when thuv hear bis voice they follow hini. This is not Contrary to nature. The sumo principle U to be noticed In regnrd to all truth. That Is what we call a discovery ; It Is the opening of the door ot the mind ; und olio of the most Impressive tilings about Mclcnee today Is to consider how many other secrets of thu universe nro at this moment knock ing nt our doors nnd waiting to lx let in; nnd to porceivo how senseless and un receptivo we must seem to an omniscient mind, when so much truth, standing near us, Is beaten back from our closed niluils and wills. It is the samo with religious truth. Here nro our lives, nlmt In, limited, self-absorbed; and hero aro the messages of God, knocking at our door, and between tho two, only one barrier, the barrier of our own wills, llcllglous edueatioti Is. simply the opening of the door of the heart. A Christinu dlsclpleship Is simply that alert ness and reo' ptivity which hears the knock ing and welcomes tho Hplrlt which says; "If any man will but open tlio door, 1 will como in to him, and sup with I1I111, and ho with mo."

I remember once when I felt tho need of n great stock of putioucotomoet an emergency that was coming upon me, and thought I would be obliged to pray for a long time in order to lay up enough. I think 1 expected to have something after the uuturo of a package of putienco, done up nnd labeled 'Tntioneo," and deposited In ray heart. It was ono night, nnd I was prepuring myself to pray all night long In order to lay in a good supply, when suddenly this verse Hashed iuto mv mlinl: ''Who ot God is made uuto us wisdom and right eousness, and sanctillcation, and re demption." ''Yes," I added with a sudden Uiuininatioii, "ami patience too!" I do not ueed to lay up a stock ot patience, ; all tho patience 1 uood is stored up for me in Christ, und I have only to draw my supplies momentarily from Him." I rose from my knees nt once, and thanked the Lord before hand for thu u'dlmilod supply ot pationcu that was mini) in Christ. And I need not say that 1 found gra.'o (iu the form of pati ence) to help In every timuotueud. llauuuh Whitehall Smith. Unappreciated Itlcsslngl. A poor old widow, living ln tho Rcottlsh Highlands, was called upon one day by u gentleman wlin hud li.ui.rit Unit hIih was lo need. The old lady complained of hor con dition, and that her sou was in Australia, and doing well, ''lint does he do nothing to help your"' inquired the visitor. "No, noth ing," was tho reply, "lie writes me regu larly ouco a mouth, but only sends me a litllo picture with his letter." Thu gentleman asked to see one of the pictures tlint sho nail received, and found each one of them to bo a draft for X10. That Is the condition of many of God's children. He has given us many "exceeding great and precious promises, WI1M1 we eltlier urn ignorant of or fail to appropriate. Many of them seem to bo pretty pictures of an Ideal peace and rest, but aro not appropriate as practical helps In daily life. And not one ot these promises Is more neglected than tho nssurnnce of salvation. An open ilililo places them within rench of all, and we may appropriate the blessing which such u knowl edge brings. D. L. Moody. Tlin Value I In Christ. Ton remember the scene In Hhakespearn's "Merchant of Venice" whon the suitors for Tortiu's band ohooso between tho caskets tho golden, tho silver, the leaden. Tho value is not in the casket, it is in the por trait of Portia that ilea within, and ho who finds the portrait wins the living bride. The value of our Bible is not in its words nnd pi rases these aro tho mere caskets; it is in tho Christ whoso portrait Is contained in tho liolo Book, from the opening scene iu the Garden to tho closing scene at thu Judgment. And ho best uses the Bible who knows how to open this casket, to look beneath Its words and phrases, to see the Christ whose Imago Is enshrined there, and then to look up and see tho living Christ at his side and take him as a Friend and a Bridegroom because he has found thin di vine image in the Book. Lyman Abbolt,D.D. Christianity Glorifies Tvft. It has been well said that till Christ cams humanity lived Iu a hemisphere of our moral world. They know only hull the springs ot all that we foel excellent Be fore Christ the best men admired the beauty of womanly character quite as little as the worst men did. Tbe Greek whose death Will always be remembered beside that ot Christ, spoke in bis last hour contemptuous ly of his sorrowing wife, and his disciple framed an ideal world in which no mother should know her own child. Cliristiunlty glorified the mother. It exalted the mo ther's love as the focus of all that makes up womanhood. British Weekly. 1 It we look down, than our shoulders stoop.

LliSSON THOUGHTS. Anything that we allow to Interfere with our love and service to God is our idol, whether It be wood or stone or precious metal: whether It be sun, moon or stars, or any of the works of nature; whether It be selfish greed, personal Indulgence, or petulent tem per; all these God forbids us to serve. Men make a grand mistake when they choose to serve mammon Instead of God. Godliness has the promise of this world and of that which Is to come. "Seek llrst the kingdom of God, and ail these things shall be added unto you." liut seek llrst the pleasures and prollts of this world, and even If you secure pome of them the profits end there, nnd the kingdom of heaven Is lost. SELECTIONS. This Is always true, that the people who do not muke worldly good their first object ure the people who can be most safely trusted with It, and who get most enjoyment out of It. All earthly good Is exalted by being put second, and degraded ns well as cor rupted by being put first. The water lapped up In the palm, as the soldier marches. Is sweeter than tho abundant draughts swilled down by self-indulgence. "Seek ye first the kingdom ot God . . . and all those things shall be added unto you." Saul of Tursus once find all his cnnl- tal Invested In time stocks. They paid wen in earimy divuicnils. He was that yourg, brilliant, promising rabbi. Alen praiseil him; Ills reputation In Pharisaic circles was well established. He hud many earthly treasures. Hut he ono day saw that Jesus of Nuzareth was Lord of heaven and earth; Imme diately he threw away his time stocks, never drew another dividend on them, and put tho rest of his capital Into guarantee stocks of heaven. He often gave testimony to their value. Just be fore his departure, ho said, "Hence forth there is laid up for mo a crown of righteousness." riirlstluiiity'K Touch.

Christianity touches a liuinii vitally, and it is as tli'ini;li a beam from heaven hail come shining in to light up its hciirtlistone, or a snatch of some song tho au.'i'ls sing.

Christianity touches the factory and tbe mill vitally, and the prod ucts are what they are advertised to be genuine articles.

"I don't IrytouiiderilMiil It; I pre fer to walk by simple faith." Hut simple faith docs not court darkness, nor is It an evidence of great faitli when one who has just placed life baud in (ioil's hand closes his eyes. Following J.el blindfolded is nut the courage of faith, hut the recklessness of credulity.
