NOTES AND COM M ENT8.
Mark rollows up the narrative of tie
Lord' life without chronological inter
ruption. Including the interval claps
ing between the last lesson and this,
we utnke this summary:

Ji us la Capernaum Mark U:l-!
The Sick ..f the l'.ilsy vs. 3-!
yties! loal.,i; Scribes vs. 8, '.
The Powi r of Jesus vs. s-tt
,l(o at Prayer. We note here the
fact that Jesus prayed. Several inter
esting questions arise in thia connec
tion. The lirst is regarding the need
of prayer in general. Another ia: Did
Jesus, the sin less One, need to pray '.' And
if this is answered in the affirmative,
why? Then is suggested the very In
terestlng study of secret prayer, itr "a
solitary place."
Regarding our need of prayer there
is probably very little dispute. Even
the most ungodly utter a prayer when
confronted by sudden danger, or meet
some great sorrow. It leemi involun
tary, in other words, natural. Did
Jesus need to pray? Surely He did not
depart into a solitary place alone to
pray, simply to set us an example. The
mere fact of His praying seems to in
dicate His need of prayer. Why? He
cause, as we have said, it was natural.
If it is natural for us, how much more
for Him who was infinitely nearer the
Father than we. Then, too, if He were
one with the Father, as He so often said
He was, communion With Ood was His
?ery life, as it is nlso the being of our
spiritual life. Then, regarding secret
prayer, Jesus had spent a very busy-
Sabbath, surrounded all the day by
large crowds.
Preaching Tour in (Inlilee. Hut the
Saviour was not to be left alone long.
The people of Capernaum clamored for
Him, so His disciples came to tell Him
Hut other towns and villages also
needed the Gospel. He went about
from place to place preaching and heal
ing.
Healing the I.eper. At oue of the
places where the Lord stopped to preach
a leper came to Him for healing. Jesus
pitying him and seeing his faith, spoki
the word, and the leprosy departed am
.he was cleansed. It seems from thil
incident that many of Jesus' miracles
were done privately and quietly. Thi
healing of the leper wns done so. And
Jesus charged him not to tell people
ol lus cure, hut the man Hid, anil we are
told that after that "Jesus could no
more openly (that is, without attract
ing more attention than He wished)
enter into the city." Prominent people
are often unable to do much quiet good
by people who, recognizing them
claim their entire nttention. So Jesus
had to do His preaching outside the
towns, where the people came seeking
Him.
Jesus in Capernaum. After this tour
Jesus returned to His home by the lake
of Galilee. Hut here, as formerly, and
in the other towns "straightway many
were gathered together." And in the
house Jesus preached to them. His voice
reaching even those who crowded about
the entrance.
The Sick of the Palsy. The presence
of Jesus brought those who needed
healing, and one sick of the palsy borne
by four of his friends. Itut they could
not uenr lum tnrougli the crown, so
they carried him to the roof, ns they
could with those oriental houses, and
through the opening lowered him into
the house right before Jesus. The Jews
believed all bodily suffering came be
cause of sin. So Jesus said: "Son, thy
sins be forgiven thee."
Questioning Scribes. The scribes,
learned in the law, were quick to seize
upon thil, God alone could forgive
sins.
The Power of Jesus. Jesus' answer
was direct and to the point, lie had
before healed in a miraculous way dif
ferent diseases. Only the power of God
could do that. Was that, then, less
wonderful than to go to what they be
lieved to be the root of the trouble, and
say the sin was forgiven. Herein was
the power of Jesus shown that He could
heal the infirmities of both body and
soul.
AFTERTHOUGHTS.
Secret prayer and mediation is the
life of the soul.
Much of the good in this life Is done
in a quiet, unpretentious manner.
If one way is blocked, try another.
Sin is the disease of the soul which
Jesus came into the world to heal.
The scribes were learned in the law,
but there were some things they had
yet to learn.
The power of Jesuit is shown in the
world to-day by redeemed Uvea, and a
higher order of morality and civillza-tion.

I A WOUnded Officer sends a long letter
to his mother from Pietermaritgburg
1 hospital deaeriblng his experiences at
j ihe battle or Elandalaagte. "it was,"
' he saya, "a splendid feat of arms, anil
I I am mist uwfully proud of mj rci
I ment, for we bore the brunt of t lie i at .
Wr had u tremendous hard time of It,
and were under (Ire for 2 hours (con

Itut tbe cost wtis awful! We bad onlj
ten officers in nction, and live of them
were wounded; and of :il".i men we bad

iinee died of their woum's. The (ior
dons lost even mure severely. The rea
sons for this were, In. my opinion, as
follows: First, their dark kills wen
much more visible than our khakis, at tl
consequently formed a better target;
sec nd, there w ere more of t hem. The
Gordons all say that Dor gal was the
merest child's play compared to this.
"To return to my own doings. I lay
where I fell for oboul three-quarters
of an hour, w hen a doctor came ai d put
a field dressing on my wound, gave me
some brandy, put my helmet iitii'rr my
head as a pillow, covered me with a
Boer blanket which he had taken from
n dead man and then went to look after
some olher poor beggar. I shall nevi r
forget the horrors of that night as hu g
IS I Inc. In addition to the agony,
which my wound gave me 1 had two
sharp stupes running Into my bock. 1
as soaked to the skin and bitterly eold,
but had tin awful thirst: the torrents
of rain never stopped. On ope side of
me was a Gordon highbinder in raving
delirium and on the other a Boer whu
had had his leg shattered by n shell, nuil
w ho gave vent to t he un 'st heartrending
cries and groans. War is a funny game,
mother, and no one can realize w hat its
grim horrors are like till they see it in
all its barbarous reality.
"I lay in the rain Ihe whole of the
night, and of daybreak was put into a
doolie by a doctor, and Mime natives car
ried me down to the station. The
ground was awfully rough, and they
dropped me twice; 1 fainted both times.
I was sent down to l.ndl smith in the
hospital train: from the station I was
conveyed to the chapel (officer's hospi
tal) In a bullock cart, the jolting of
w hich made me faint again. I was the
last officer taken in. I was then pot
to bed, and my wound was dressed just
17 hours after I was hit. They then
gave me beef tea, which was the first
food I had had for 87 hours. The doc
tori all said at lirst that I had been
hit by n shell, but. that Is Impossible,
for the enemy only had two guns, and
we had taken them both when I was
hit. So the doctors, now say (lint it
must have been a very heavy explosive
bullet, and, ns un elephant gun was
found close to where I was hit, I ex
ect thy are right. It has made n big,
Jagger hole in my shoulder, which you
could put your hand into. It hns blown
some of the muscles away, so I nm
afraid 1 shall always be a bit stiff. They
say it will take another ten weeks be

much afraid that most of the lighting
will be over by that time, in spite of the
present critical condition of affairs."
