LESSON NOTES.
I. The Prayer Meeting on the Moun
tain. V. 1. A week after the conversa
tion recorded in our last lemon, in which
Jesus made known to Ills disciples that
lie must ere long suffer and die, and be
raised again, a revelation that shocked
the disciples and threw them into the
gloom of tbe dungeon of giant despair,
Jesus toketh Peter, James and John
apart into a high taountuin. It was the
fciime favored three who had gone with
Jesus into the room where lie raised
Jainu' daughter. A few months later
they were nearest to Him as He prayed
in Cethsemanee, and still later were
recognized ns "pillars" of the church
(Hal. 2:9). There was ne favoritism iu
this selection. He simply advanced to
higher studies tneme who, by faithful
ness in the lower, had made it possible
for them to understand and use the
higher.
II. . The Answer. The Transfigura
tion. V. 2. The word rendered "trans
figured" implies not merely a change of
outward form, as when Safun took the
appearance of an nngel of light, but a
reul, cssentiul change. "A foreshadow
ing or prophecy of his true form His
distinctive character comes out in his
transfiguration;" "a revelation of
Deity breaking out in that glorified
face, which appealed to something
deeper than sense." M. fi. Vincent. It
was the true nature of Jesus, as de
scribed by Paul in Acts 9:3, and by John
in revolutions 1:13-10, shining through
His flesh and Ilia frurmcntK.os by alight
from within, ns the sunlight shining
through dull stained glnhs wjndowB re
veals the true nature of the picture. And
it wns in their presence, while they were
awake, ns Luke expressly says (Luke
9:32). And His face did shine nsthe sun.
Xotbing less thnn the brightest and
most glorious of till objects within hu
man knowledge so bright that it de
stroys the eye to gaze directly upon it
could express tho radlunt glories of
Jesus' face, when His Heavenly nature
shone through the veil of his flesh.
III. The Conference of the Three
Glorified Ones. V. 3. "And, behold,
there appoured unto them (I. e., the dis
ciples) Moses und Kilos:" the Greek
form of Elijah. These persons were reni
ly present. It was not a vision, as is
plain from the account of Luke. The
representatives of the law, the prophets,
ntid the Gospel conversed together. The
subject of their conversation is reported
by Luke. They spoke of His decease,
His departure, Greek, "exodus," which
included His death, resurrection, and
ascension. This conversation would
enable the disciples to see the im
portance and necessity of that which
they most dreaded, and which was to
them the greatest mystery. The atone
ment on the crosn, followed by the res
urrection, wos the great event of the
world's history; this was the culmina
tion of the salvation brought by the
Messiah; this was the great act to which
nil the sacrifices appointed by Moses
looked forward, and which gave them
meaning and value.
IV. The Three Witnesses. V. 4.
"Then answered Peter:" After they
had looked on awhile, and the heavenly
guests were departing. Peter annwered
not to any question, but the feelings
and questionings that the scene awak
ened in his mind. "And said unto
.Testis:" Anxious to continue in such
heavenly company, but "not knowing
what He said" (Luke), not realizing the
full meaning of his proposal or its ef
fect upon the mission of Jesus and upon
the disciples themselves. "Lord, it is
ffood for us to be here:" Tbe experi
ence wns good, and would make him
a better and more useful man all the
rest of his life. It widened his outlook.
Jesus made no answer. The events
that followed were the answer. It was
not good to rvinaln there. There was
need for thein all in the world below.
Working for Jesus was better C. ' a
standing and gazing at Ilfa ,.LiJ",
V. The Divine Testimony Vfc ML
Even while Peter was speaktaf r
hold, a bright cloud overshadowed
them; and behold a voice out of the
cloud, which said : "This is my beloved
Son, in whom I nm well pleased; hear
ye Iliin." And the disciples fell on their
face, nnd were sore afraid. The great
manifestations of God's power close at
hand fill the soul, conscious of weak
ness nnd sin, with dread solemnity.
Dut with brotherly tenderness, Jexus
came and touched them, . and Bald :
"Arise, and be not afraid." '
VI. The Return to the World. Vs. 8,
0. And when they had lifted up their
fjes, they saw no man, save Jesus only,
And a,s they came down from the moun
tain, Jesus charged them, saying: "Tel!
tie vision to no man, until the Son of
Man be risen again from the 1 dead."
Until the' reourrection the disciples
could not fully understand the mean
ing ot this transfiguration so as to tell
it aright, as to Jesus' nature, His deeth,
His resurrection, the future life.' f ,

skipper the followin' Thursday, a'

"'What's this?' says the Cap'n.
'Broke your leave by over 48 hous?

'"Missed me train, sir,' says Sain.
" 'What hole of a place wus you in
then, where they on'y runs one train in

" 'London, sir.
" 'Master-ut-Arms, how many trains
from London in a day?' said the Cap'n,
tiirnin' to the johndy.
"The johndy looks, 'em up. 'Nearly

" 'Oid you miss all the 80, my man?'

"Cap'n Bunson hung on a mlnit as

portunity to say he'd rather have cells
than 10 A.
"The Cap'n looked him up and down
for a loinit or two. 'Well, my man,' he
says, 'we don't know each other very
well yet, but I think we shall. Of all
the impudent scoundrels I ever met
wid, you're the worst. You come

Sam) 'and now you ast a favort You

" 'No, sir. Never struck me as any

" 'Exactly. And yet you all know

" 'Yes, sir.
" 'Try to tell the truth for the future,
then. And as you want cells, do seven
days of 'em in addition to the 10 A.'
"Sam done his cells, medltatln' deep

" '1 wish you'd do it now. sir,' says

"Sum said he surmised nil this argu

"That was Cap'n Bunson's way.

"Well, now we comes to Egypt, nnd
the desert and the fight in the night.
You know the Naval Brigade was there,

it, nnd Sam, who follered him like
a shadder in every scrap, which was
right. AsSamsuid: 'S'pose the Cap'n
enptures the enemy in bunches like

Mother Nature has begun to experi
ment with hothouses, and tbe very first
one, aa well as the only one in exist
ence, is located in Yellowstone park,
A geyser furnishes all that ia needful
to make tremendous growths, such aa
cucumbers ten feet long, and tbe like.
The hothouse, or greenhouse, as the
gentleman who has charge of it, W. P.
Howe, terms it, is a model one of its
kind, although located away up In the
mountains of the park. Nature fur
nishes everything necessary to conduct
it, except tbe building itself, giving
heat, moisture and light. v
If Mr. Howe wanted to compete at
tbe county fairs in tbe vegetable line he
would, unless heavily handicapped, win
all the prizes. Such lettuce, cucumbers,
radishes, tomatoes and other things to
cut as the firm of Nature & Howe
grows are bigger than tbe biggest fisb
story ever told. Almost everyone who
has ever been to Yellowstone Park bo
iel witbla the last year will remember
the wonderful vegetables, for despite
their size they are very delicate in
flavor, although grown at an altitude)
of 7.400 feet, where ice forms every
month In tbe year. Here is what Mr.
Howe says about it:
"Travelers who have been in every
climate on this brood earth never be
fore had seen such a sight. Lettuce, cu
cumbers, radishes, tomatoes, mush
rooms and the like are growing with
the greatest success. The experiment
Is novel and very interesting; the grow
ing of vegetables over u hot stream of
water often interested tourists more
than the eruption of a geyser.
"After procuring permission from
Capt. George S. Anderson, acting super
intendent of the park, I built the green
house over a hot steaming hole in the
ground. The water bad a temperature
of 105 degrees Fahrenheit. It proved a
great success. On December 14 the ther
mometer showed 3S degrees below zero,
Falfcniieit. yet in this little cmde slab
house nritiM-e was caring forcuctimbers,
onions, ru dishes and lettuce with a tem
perature of 65 degrees Fahrenheit,. ull
In fine shape, knowing nothing of the
fierce blowing snow and wind outside.
"The greenhouse Is 25x5Q,feet, with a
glass roof covering it. Tbe building
faces the east, with a front four feet
high and raised to tbe height of 18 feet
at the back. The beat is furnished from
a running stream flowing from a seven
inch bole in the formation at the south
end, flowing north through the center
Df tbe building. Tbe water comes from
the ground at a temperature of 195 de
grees Fahrenheit, which is about tbe
boiling point at this altitude. Five
foot beds surround the building on the
Inside, except at the north end, with a
nine-foot bed in the center; all the beds
are raised from 18 inches to two feet
for circulation and a place for the mush
rooms. An aisle runs around the build
ing between the beds.
Often tbe temperature indicates
nearly 100 degrees Fahrenheit without
the wilting of a single leaf of the plants.
The result of this rapid growing of
vegetation is wonderful. The beds are
filled about three feet deep with rich.

the hot stream make such a perfect
combination that vegetation has to
grow night and day.
"What has been the result ? Tbe first
seeds were put into the ground on the
Fourth of July last year. Lettuce came
up from dry seed in two days and cu
cumbers in three days, and other vege
tables in like quick time. Good-sized
heads of lettuce were gathered in 15
to 13 days from the time of planting.
In 28 days lettuce measured 22 inches
across, which was os sweet and tender
as anyone ever put into his mouth.
Often the condensation of tbe steam
would break down the larger leaves by
the weight of water upon them. Cu
cumber vines grew from 25 to 30 feet
In length in less than 60 duys witheut
being watered, except from the mois
ture in the air.
"Boots hang down from tbe vines 15
to 20 inches long. The flowering on the
various plants is exceptionally great.
On some of the cucumber vines five f un
sized cucumbers were ' gathered from
a single joint; often three were grown.
More brittle ones were never gathered
from vines than those grown in this
novel greenhouse. Shubarb, beets,
mushrooms and other vegetables will
grow to great advantage in this hot and
moist temperature. Many . tropical
fruits could also be raised.
"There is very little labor to be done
after the soil is properly fixed and the
seed is once in the ground. It is like
pressing the buttpn .and nature doing
the rest. . There are no weeds, no in
sects, no stirring of the soil, only to
gather in tbe fruits and watch nature
working in a harnessed condition. Tbe
leaves and all the plants show a very
healthy condition and fine color. ,. ,
' "Cucumber leaves measure 17 Inches
across. . The growth of a cucumber is
very rapid after it is once started:
Many a time they measure about two
inohes long and within 24 hours ' in
crease an inch In 1 length. Radishes
rrow u rapidly .that they often split."

when the Creator said to woman,
"In sorrow shalt thou bring forth
children," that a curse was pro.
nounced against the human race,
but the joy felt by every Mother
when she first presses to her heart
her babe, proves the contrary.
Danger and suffering lurk in
the pathway of the Expectant
Mother, and should be avoided,
that she may reach the hour when
the hope of her heart is to be real
ized, in full vigor and strength.
