Golden Text: Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve. - r., Scripture Reading: Acts 14 Chap. We complete, in this lesson, the story of the first great foreign mis sionary journey. . Paul and Barnabus, having been -rwtm Anting, pame to Incon- ium. This city is much more noted historically than Antioch. 'It is fam ous as the cradle of the rising power rnnnnerinff Turks," having i 4-1, .orbital nf the Seliukian Sul tone and havine a great part in the growth of the Ottoman Empire. In Paul's time the city was prob ably not different from otner impor tant towns of Asia Minor. Certainly the treatment given the missionaries a camp? some cave held tne message, the Apostle was allowed to preach for a time, then he was driven Tnrnnium was left and tne gospel carried into a wilder region, to v r - .

Paul came in contact "with heathen superstition and mythology" the superstition, too of a crude, ignorant people.

If one man of Lystra was in a measure prepared for the message, and found healing in it, the multitude was far different. There vas a com mon belief among ancient people that the gods occasionally visited the earth. A temple to Jupiter was in Lystra. What more reasonable, from their stand-point, than that the great Jupiter should visit hjs people and that Mercury, who was represented as attending him on his journeys, should Ibe with him, for , Mercury was the messenger, the servant of the gods? Seeing the lame' man healed, the populace acclaimed Barnabas and .Paul as Jupiter and Mercury and at tempted to offer sacrifice to them. How pitiful it seems, their longing for a personal knowledge and sight of God, yet their souls so blinded by su perstition that many of them could not see Him of whom Paul spoke: the Word Made Flesh who had so shortly before "come down in the likeness of men." Among those who did see, however, were Eunice. Lois and Timothy. Paul suffered cruel persecution at Lystra but in Timothy he gained a son in the Lord. . The incidents of Paul's stay in Lys tra are often used to illustrate the fickleness of a crowd. First the visit ors were greeted as gods, then perse cuted. So Christ . had been hailed king one week, crucified the next. From Lystra Paul and Barnabas went to Derbe: There they made many disciples and then began the journey home. They visited, on the return, the churches they had estab . lished, exhorting the members and . appointing elders to carry on the work. It was a great, a brave jour ney: bravely begun, bravely ended. This unflagging courage is, per - haps, the great personal lesson to be found in our chapter. We can find here, too, examples of various kinds of "hearing," illustrating the lesson to be found in Christ's parable of the sower. One man heard Paul and his "hearing brought healing to his crip pled body. A large number heard and were only confirmed in their own ig norance, folly and sin. Timothy heard and became "My true child in the fa:th." "Mv boloved child." "He lhat hath errs to hear, let him .hear. Matt 13:0. to Springfield. W. A. ROSS. Hartford, Conn., Aug. 8, 1921. WAS. THIS HEN 'A RIP VAN WINKLE? For The News-Herald: In my articule you published July 7th I told of the disappearence of a hen in April that I supposed had been stolen. I am not sure that it disappeared in April; , it may have been during the first half of May. Let that be as it may, there is the greatest mystery connected with that hen's history that has ever, to mv knowledge, been given to the reading public. About the 15th of July that missing hen returned home after an absence of more than two months She was as poor as Job's turkey. Her tail feathers were all gone and the rear part of her anatomy was desti tute of feathers. Before leavinsr home I'm sure she would have weigh ed six or seven pounds. When she returned I don't believe she would have weighed three pounds. She was so weak that, when another hen would attempt to fight her, she would fall to the ground and . was scarcely able to get on her feet again. Where was she during all this time, is the puzzling, question. After pondering, over the matter more than two weeVs, the most rea sonable conclusion that I have been able to arrive at is that she must have had a Rip Van Winkle sleep. MRS. C. P. HILL.
