Lesson Xlll.— Third Quarter, For
Sept. 27, 1814.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, John ill, 14-21
(Quarterly Review) Golden Text,
Rev. iii, 11—Commentary Prepared by
Rev. D. M. Stearne.
LKSSO.V I.—The Laborers In the Vine
yard. Mutt xx, 'l-16. Golden Text.
Matt, v, 45, "He- makcth His sun to
ri»e op the evil anil the good and send
eth rain on the Just and the unjust."
He compares His people Israel to a
vineyard In Isa. v and Is grieved be
cause they disappoint Him In the mat
ter of fruit. Here It is a question of 1
labor and rewnrd. Many are mere
hirelings and serve Him for so much
Better leave It all to Him.
LESSOS ll.— Greatness Through Serv
ice, Mark x, 32-45. Golden Text, Mark
x, 45, "The Son of Man also came not
to be ministered unto, but to minister
and to give His life a ransom for
many." AVhlle He.talked of suffering
they thought only of position In His
Kingdom. When Peter asked Him not
to think of suffering He said that sa
vored of man and Satan, not of God
(Matt xvl, 23). Let us lay it well to
heart
LESSON lll.—Blind Bartlmaeus, Mark
x, 4(5-52. Golden Text, Isa. xxxv, 5, 0,
"Then the eyes of the blind shall be
opened, and the ears of the deaf shall
be unstopped." The blind man realized
his. need and his opportunity and
would not be quieted. Such persever
ance wins, and he was beard and an
swered and followed Jesus In the way.
More requests would be granted If He
could see IHce results.
LESSON IV.—Tile Pounds and the Tal
ents, Luke xlx, 11-27; Matt, xxv, 14-30,
Golden Text, Matt, xxv, 21, "Well done,
good rtiht nrtrhfiil servant; • * • enter
thon Into the Joy of thy Lord." Saved
by grace In order to work and then re
warded according to our works. His
word to each Is, "Occupy till I come."
He. gives opportunities, works In ns
and through us and gives us the cred
it of It
LESSON V.—The Triumphal Entry,
Mark xl, 1-11. Golden Text, Zech. Ix,
8, "Kejoice greatly, O daughter of Zlon.
' * * Behold, thy King cometb .unto
thee." All that lias ever been written
concerning Him must be fulfilled (I.ulte
xxlv, 44) and as literally as was this
prediction. Literal, unless plainly a
figure, is the only way to read the Bi
ble, and we shall always find every
thing just as He said or as It is writ
ten (Luke xlx, 82; xxlt, 13).

men, Matt, xxl, 33-40. Golden Text,
Matt, xxl, 42, 'The stone which the
builders rejected, the same was made

other vineyard story, but this time it Is
a question of fruit for the owner, In
stead of which HIS servants are 111
treated and Uls own son slain. But
the rejected Son will yet be the accept
ed Messiah at the endpf this age.
Lies SON VIIL—The Wedddlng Feast,
Matt, xxll, 1-14. Golden Text, I.uke *lll,
84, 'Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem, • ♦ •
how often would I, • • • and ye
would not!" The lessons of this portion
are somewhat similar to the last—a
slighted and despised Invitation, with
ill treatment of thd messengers and the
self righteous presumption of one who
would not nccept n wedding gnrmcnt.
Everywhere and at all times it Is the
same story of man's enmity to God
(Rom. till. 7, 8).
LESSON IX.—A Day of Questions.
Matt xxll, 15-22. Golden Text, Matt
xxli, 21. "Render therefore unto Caesar
the things that are Caesar's and unto
God the tilings that are God's." The

Ice to hlin. The saved ones hear the
Image of Uod anil are t*X|svKl to serve
the Living and True God. living only
to please Him and desiring only His
approval.
LESSON X.—The Great Command
ments, Mark xll, 28-44, Golden Text
Luke x, 27, "Thou slialt love the Lord
thy God with all thy heart • • • and
thy neighbor ns thyself." It is never
a question of our keeping the law,
which is Intended to show us our guilt
and is too holy for sinful man to keep,
but the one great question for us is,
What think ye of Christ? What Is
our relation to Him? Is our all fully
yielded to Ulm?
LESSO.V Xl.—The Ten Virgins, Matt
xxv, 1-13. Golden Text Matt, xxv, 13,
"Watclv therefore, for we know not the
day noi the hour." As we saw In our
lesson, this probably refers to Israel at
the tluiw of the return of Christ with
His cimrch after the marriage of the
Lamb, but the message for each he-,
llever Is to see that our lamp Is tided,
well trimmed and always burning.
LESSO* Xll.—The Judgment of the
nations. Matt. xxv. 31-40. Golden Text
Matt. xxv. 45, "Inasmuch as ye did It
not unto one of these least, ye did It
not unto me." Salvation depends upon
our union with Christ, and all else de
pends upon our understanding of our
oneness with Him. We must see our
selves. If we are redeemed, ns sljarlng
His throne and Ills glory. Then we
shall never wonder If we are either
sheep or goats in Mutt. xxv.

BATTLE OF AI3NE

Pushed Back Near Belgian Border Bj

RUSSIANS ARE IH CONTROL
Of Situation In Gallcia and Are Pro

Agal nst 3ermans
The second great battle between the
allied armies of' Qrrilt Britain and
France against the Germans In the
northern part of Franco Is In progress.
It' Is. the battle of the Alsne. The
Germans are strongly entrenched In
the mountains In the region of the
Noyon on Ihe river Olse, northwest of
Purls. Tlieir battle line extends to the
river Meuse, north of the Verdun.
Strong reinforcements, probably from
Lorraine, has strengthened their lines
Allies Win Battle of Marne.
When the German armies Invaded
France from Belgium they swept the
allies beforerthem and pushed steadily
forward until they were almost under
(he walls of Paris. Then the tide of
the battle turned. The allies were the
pursuers nnd the flermar.s the nursued.
near the scenes or action were crowded
teamslilp Red Cross prepared to leave
wns done behind hastily constructed
of the enemy. Business of nearly nil
found. General Galllenl directed tbo
to take nteps to nrrnnge for pence.
This was known ns th£ "ttttiu
Marne. The battle ended, when the
Cermans had been driven north of the
Alsne river and the allleß were the
victors.
Three Million Men Engaged.
It is predicted that the battle of the
Alsne will be even more appalling
than the battle of the Marne. Military
experts estimate that there are nearly
3,000,000 men assembled on a battle
line about 110 miles long. Thousands
of lives will be sacrificed In the at
tempt of the armies of the defenders
to push the Invaders out of France.
The Germans have left a sufficient
force In Belgium to protect their re
treat through that country In the
event they are forced to fall back.
*• Reinforcements For Germans.
Word has been received that Ger
many luis recalled the armies she sent
from the no?th'of France and Belgian!
to Kast Prussia to check the onward
rush of tlie Czar's armies through
Fast Prussia, and will send them to
the assistance of the Germans In
Franco.
Move For Peace Is On.
The negotiations that have been go
ing on between the United States and
Germany with regard to a movement
for peace -have given little encourage
ment. Von Hetliniunn-llollwegg, the
imperial chancellor of Germany, has
suggested United States Ambassa
dor Gerard m Berlin that the United
States secure terms of peace from
Great Britain, France and Russia.
"Germany," he said, "wants oerwanant
peace an or protection irum runner war
fare." President Wilson announced he
would continue his effort* along this
line.
Russians Moving Forward.
According to dispatches from Rome
and Petrograd, the Rasslan capital, the
armies of Austria In Qalicia are in a
pitiful condition. At present thejr are
hovering under the protection of the
forts surrounding Presemsyl, but the
Russians have surrounded this loca
tion and .are expected to make an at
tack at any time. The German troops
that were sent to the assistance of the
Austrlans failed In their mission and
themselves were forced to fall back.
Undaunted by the former defeat at
Konlgsberg, In East Prussia, the Rus
sians are preparing to take advantage
of the withdrawal of a large portion of
the German soldiers in that vicinity,
who have been ordered to the relief
of the Kaiser's armies In France, and
are planning another assault on Ko
nlgsberg. The Russians are also en-
I Joying victories against the Austro-
German armies in Poland. The armies
of the-Ciar In Oallcla and Poland are
already marching on Berlin and in the
event they are successful in. defeating
the Germans In East Prussia It will
' be only a short time before there wll
| be three great armies pushing their
way to Berlin.
Fighting Spreads to Asia
I The European war during the past
' week spread to Asia and Africa. The
Japanese, who declared war against
Germany several weeks ago, have be
gun an attack on the German posses
(oions In China. The British forces
In Africa have begun a campaign
against the Germans in Africa.
Austria In Dssp Gloom,
The deepest gloom overspreads Aus
tria. The government has called the
last reserves: to the colors. News of
victories over the Servians was given
Out to the people of Austria, but this
has not helped to dispell the depres
sion caused by the continual defeats

I constant fear that the Russians 'Will
' change their course In Gallcia and in
! stead of continuing on to Berlin they
will encircle the Carpathians and be-
FIPRP the capital of the dual-monarchy.
Germany Urges Italy's Aid
Rome.—Germany continues to try
to Influence public opinion with all
kinds of publications; the latest be
ing a pamphlet In Italian which baa
been widely distribute and bears the
3Me, "The Truth About the War."
Among the collaborators of the arti
cle are Count Ernest Von Revontlow,
the naval expert; Mathlas Krberger,
leader of the clerical center In the
German solchslag, and Joseph Freder
