In trying to re alize what the Syrian shepherd was to the sheep we must remember that the Syrian pastures are cot like ours, hut vast stretches of half barren land In which streams are fV and often dry, and which are infested with wild beasts and Arab robbers. With us sheep are turned out to pasture and left to them selves In perfect safety; but In the east the shepherd literally lives with his flock and sharestheirhardshlpsand dan gers with them, for only so can he pro vide for them and protect them. "I shall not want:" The perfect "trust of nr.e who knows God's care from experience. It dors not say: "I shall never war.t nr.y thlnn I c.ir.not l:.ve," but rather: "What.soovt r fjod s s is best for ni", I know that He wi'.l do. for He 1. me."

The Syrian shep herd leads, for in some of the pasture there are poisonous weeds, and he nnt be tlore first to remove them; he must select the pasture with the greatest care, and at the parting of the ways he with his superior wisdom must choose the rlfcht one, and because they have grown up with Kim and have never been disap pointed by him the sIiTTp follow him with Implicit faith.

As a rule the diplomats from South America are not so wtll (quipped as their colleagues from Europe, where diplomacy is a profession but little af fected by political chatgis. Many of them speak neither French cor EnRlish. which limits their usefulness and af- I fects their soU position. But while ! they are looked upon as being a grade lower than the members of the diplo matic corps from Europe, there are ' many exceptions to the ruie.

"Tho paths of rlghteousnona:" The thought hero Is oepeclally of tho human flock. One would not naturally speak of right eous paths when referring to the sheep. To the sheep they are the paths that lead to what Is best for them; they are the same to us. Perhaps sometimes our Shepherd leads us over stony ways; but He does not do it for His own sake, nor ! because He does not know the pain of ihm linlfcatl anrl hloollnir feat titif n I cause there Is no other way by which He can lead us out Into the better Ufa that awaits us beyond. But we do not suffer alone; He goes with us, and His ' i feet are wounded as well as our own. And so we reach the better land throuuh 1 the sacrifice and blood of our sheplu ril ing Saviour.

"Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine en ! emies:" The figure seems to chance' j here to that of anient at which the I psalmist thinks of himself as the pro- ' tected guest of Jehovah. Foes he still ' has, but they rannot harm him. It Is possible, however, as William A. Knlnlit has shown, that It is a shepherd-psalm to the very end, for In reality the shop- ! herd prepares the pasture for tli j flock In the midst of all kinds of dangers and "enemies," but they graze upon it I in perfect security. "Thou hast anointed my head with oil:" A refresh ing courtesy shown to guests In oriental lands, or the bathing or anointing of the bruised and weary Bheep as it enters the fold at night. The shepherd has "the horn filled with olive oil, and he was cedar tar, and he anoints a knee bruised upon tho rocks or a side scratched by thorns. And here comes one that Is not bruised, but is simply worn and ex hausted; he bathes Its face and head with tho refreshing olive oil, and h takes the large two-handle cup and dlim it brimming full from the vessel ofwa- I ter provided for that purpose, and he f lets the weary sheep drink. There Is nothing finer in the psalm than this. ClmVa rnrn la nnt fur tho u'minitart nnlv I , but for the worn and weary also. 'He anolntoth my head with oil, my oup run neth, over.' " W. A. Knight.

Blessed is the man who can truly say: "The Lord Is my shepherd!" mossed Is the man who can say: "I shall not want." The Lord's shepherd care Is better than any bank deposit. Blessed is he who is led by the Good Shepherd Into the midst of green pas tures and beside refreshing waters. ; Blessed Is he who In the valley of the shadow of death has the presence of the Lord to comfort and stay him. Blessed Is he who even In the midst or enemies feels that he can trust in the Lord's care and protection. ' Blessed Is be who can look forward to dwelling forever In the house of the Lord.

When he represented the Cuban Junta here he was not officially recognized by this government and was frequently subjected to unpleasant experlNieiv. The social war he Inspired is still re membered with some amusement by the lookers on. Society at that time was divided Into two factions, the friends of Spain and those who espoused the cause of Cuba libre. The latter, among riaim were Mrs. Don Cameron, wife of the former senator from Pennsylvania, and Mrs. Henry Cabot Lodge, persisted In invit ing the envoy of the junta to their homes, nnd never missed an opportuni ty of showing their Interest in the cause he represented. The former faction, which Included the wife of the Spanish minister, Se nora Dupuy de Lome, Senati r Utile ami a number of the membi rs of the ilipln matlc corps, maintained that the young diplomat had no official position ami consequently should not be invited to affairs which, though sociaJ, had offi cial significance.
