"And Jesus stood before the govern or, and the governor asked -Him, saying, Art Thou the King of the Jews? And Je sus said unto him, Thou eayest." He gave the samo answer when Judas said, "Mas ter, is it I?" (chapter xxvi, 25).- After all the agony of Gethsemane and the insult and mockery before the high priest, along with Peter's denial and all forsaking Him, He has been brought by the chief priests and elders of the Jews before the Roman governor, on their part determined that Ho shall be put to death (verses 1, 2). When the wise men came from the east at the timoof His birth, their inquiry was, Where is He that is born King of the Jews?" (chapter ii, 2). And it shall yet be soon by all nations that He is what He confessed before Pilate. 12. "And when He was accused of the chief priests and elders He answered noth ing." There was nothing to answer, for there was no truth in their accusations, nd He knew that they were determined to kill Him and that tho time had come for Him to let them. 13, 14. "And He answered him to never a word, insomuch that tho governor mar veled greatly. " Pilate saw that he bad a most extraordinary prisoner. He had nev er met one like this, and he knew not what to think of Him. Pilate had strange work on hand that day, and no man be fore or since ever had just such an oppor tunity. Looking at Jesus, we see how we should act whon unjustly treated and falsely accused, for He left us an example of patient endurance of wrong that is un paralleled (I Pet. ii, 20, 21). Id. ".Now, at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a pris oner whom they would. Pilate gave tho release, but tho peoplo choso the man. Consider Him who stood dumb beforo Pi late as having up to that time released millions of prisoners from the power of satan, and millions since by His going to prison and to death for us. He still lives to set the prisoners free, and whosoever will accept Him is forever free. He might have set Himself free, for they could not take His life unless Ho willed it (John x, lo). Hut He could not free llimselr and us too. Ho died that wo might live. 16, 17. "Whom will yo that I release unto you, Barabbas or Jesus, which is called Christ?" Our lesson says that this man was a notable prisoner. In Luke xxiii, 19, it is said that ho was in prison for sedition and murder. Fancy peoplo asked to choose between a red handed mur derer and the spotless Lamb of God, be tween one of the greatest of sinners and the only Saviour of sinners, Barabbas or Christ! The choice today is between the most notable of all prisoners (see Rev. xi, 1, 2), tho father of lies and a murderer from the beginning ( John .viii, 44). and this same Jesus who silently but, oh, so beseechingly for our sakes awaits our choice 18. "For ho knew that for envy they had delivered him." It is written in Prov. xxvii, 4, "Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous, but who is able to stand bo fore envy?" Stephen said in his sermon that "the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt" (Acts vii, f). 19. "Have thou nothing to do with that just Man, for 1 have suffered many things this day in a dream becauso of Him." This was the message that came to Pilate from bis wife as he sat on the judgment seat. Good was it for her if she never suf fered but in a dream because of Him. She acknowledged Him to be a righteous Man, but wo have no evidence that she received Him as the Son of God. Multitudes even yet call Him a good Man, but will not ac cept Him as God their Saviour. 20, 21. "Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barab bas." Tho chief priests and elders put them up to this, for they wero bound to destroy Jesus. There are many in places of authority who influence others to do wrong many false teachers who teach error. 22. "Pilate saith unto them,. What shall I do, then, with Jesus, which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let Him be crucified." So they decided that they would have none of Him. Ho must be killed tho creature hating tho Creator, man attempting to do away with God who made him. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. They said: "This is the heir. Come let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance." And they caught him and cast him out of tho vineyard and slew him (John i, 11, 12; Math, xxi, 38, 39). How He had told it all to them over and over again, for He knew it all from the beginning! But their hearts were hardened and their eyes were blinded. But what about Pilate's question? for there is none like it. Every one who has ever heard of Christ must ask it of his own soul, "What shall I do with Jesus?" Ho is before each one for acceptance or re jection. 23, 24. "Iam innocent-of tho blood of this just person. Seo ye to it. " Persuaded of His innocence, vainly seeking to release Him, yet afraid to do right because of the people, Pilato washes his hands beforo them all and proclaims his innocence in this affair. But it won't wash off Pilate as easy as that, as you have found ere this. It is easy to say, "I am innocent." But what does God think of it? In Mark xv, 15, the record is that Pilate was willing to content the people, but he certainly was not willing to do right at any cost. 25. "Then answerod all tho people and said, His blood be on us and on our chil dren." They might have accepted this precious cornerstone and built surely upon it for time and eternity, but they chose to have it fall upon them and crush them (Math, xxi, 42, 44). They might have been as safe under this passover blood as were their fathers in Egpyt, but they preferred to trample it underfoot. Fear ful was the curse they pronounced upon themselves, and it continues to this day, 26. "Then released he Barabbas unto them, and when he had scourged Jesus he delivered Him to bo crucified. " The mur derer goes free, and the innocent is scourged and crucified. What about this blood, Pilate? On what ground do you scourge an innocent Man? But, O my soul, leave Pilate to God, and behold for thyself God manifest in the flesh receiving these stripes on your behalf, for it is writ ten that He was wounded for our trans gressions, He was bruised for our iniqui ties, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His stripes we are healed (Isa. liii, 6).

NORWOOD HOUSE Warrenton, North Carolina w. j. NCRnouD, Proprietor. Patronage of Commercial Tourists and raveling Patlic Solicited. Good Sample Boom. SlABBST HOIH TO BT0BBS 1TS QOVBI B QVBl Klondyke Caxton was a native of X., a largish manufacturing center in the Black country. His father, a poor cler gyman, had no means to afford his son a good start in life, and he was thank ful enough when the interest of certain friends secured a clerkship in one of the local banks. Young Charlie Caxton, as be was then called, remained in the bank for nine or ten years nntil he had achieved the age of 28 and a salary of 150 per annum. Now, taking into ac count the conditions of the bank clerk labor market, this was by no means bad. But Charlie Caxton was a shrewd fel low and had done even better for him self in the time than he might have ex pected. He was already assistant cash ier, with the prospect of soon becoming chief cashier at an increased salary, and, in fact, so well were his business abili ties thought of by his chiefs that he bad a very fair hope of being appointed manager of one of tho country branches before many years were over. But cir cumstances occurred just at this time which caused him to throw np his situ ation and leave the neighborhood. These circumstances were connected with an affair of the heart. The young lady was Miss Miriam Wakefield, only daughter of the vicar of X. She was a very pretty and charm ing if somewhat superficial girl, then barely 18 years of age, and her maiden fancy was 6oon caught by Charlie Cax ton's handsome face and agreeable manners. On hia side, Charles was deeply in love with Miriam and made no secret of his attachment, but tbe relatives of both young people naturally viewed the affair with disapproval, for Charles had nothing bnt his meager salary, aud Mir iam had not a penny. However., the enamored Charles was deaf to all reason ing, and Miriam, being a spoiled daugh ter and accustomed to have her way, at length coaxed her father into giving a reluctant consent to the engagement. "But it will be a siege of Troy, my darling, " he pointed out. "Charles will not be ia a position to marry for ten years. " "I would wait for him if it were 20, father," 6ho cried, with sparkling eyes and flushing cheeks. The vicar smiled to himself, bnt said no more. He was a man wise in his generation. He thought he could gangs Miriam's disposition, and well, ten years was a long time. Everything went smoothly with the lovers for about a twelvemonth. Then a clond began to appear upon tbe horizon of Charles Caxton's happiness. He no ticed some 6light change in Miriam's demeanor toward himself. At first it was very slight, but gradually it became more marked. Poor Charles was terribly upset. He felt that he was not mistaken, and that Miriam's love for him was cooling daily. In this conviction, as a matter of fact, he was quite correct. Miriam, if the trnth must be told, was a young lady incapable of any real in tensity of love. She was emphatically not the stuff oot of which heroines are made, and that degree of heroism in love which required her to wait an indefinite time for marriage while the best of her yonth was slipping away and which of fered her no better reward at the end than the position of a very poor man's wife was (as she thought on mature re flection) just a spot beyond her. In this idea she was sedulously en couraged and supported by all her friends and relatives. "You are throw ing yourself away on Charles Caxton," they said, "when with your pretty face, my dear, you might marry a fortune." 'There are many rich men quite as handsome as Charles, "was the tenor cf others' remarks. "There is young Silk etone, for instance. He has just come in to 3,000 a year." Miriam blushed at this. There was young Silkstone, and he was quite as handsome as Charles, and be had 3,000 a year or rather more, for Ms father, the retired coal merchant, had died only six months tgo, and his personalty, almost the slender means. No, she would opt ham per him. She would oot raiojb'a pros pects. She cared for bim far too ranch. It was because she cared for bim so much that she was giving him bis free- do in, and when in future years he, mar- ' ried perchance to some rich wife and become a connty magnate, sbonld meet a dowdy, faded little old maid yclept I M iriam Wakefield be wonld surely , breathe a prayer of thankfulness to heaven at the merciful escape tbat be had bad of being tied for life to such an inenbus. And, in conclusion, she was always his sincere friend and true well wisher Miriam. That was a very artful little touch about the "old maid," wasn't it? It contradicted the truth of any minora ' that Charles might have htard in refer- : ence to young Silkstone and herself in j the most delicately insinuating manner. Charles read this letter without any ex- J ternal display of emotion; though, to 1 be 6ure, bis face was bard and set, and ' a bitter 6mile curled bis lip. Tbe blow ! did not fall unexpectedly. He had been 1 studying the signs of the times in Mir- ' iam '8 demeanor now for months past , aud had felt sure that, sooner or later, it wonld come to this. Of cours- he read between the lines of the letter. He ; saw that Miriam merely wanted to bo ; rid of him. and he had too much prido j aud stlf respect to abase himself by any I weak entreaties or protestations. Nor, in bis reply, did he indulge in any angry reproaches or, whatever he may have felt, other exhibitions of mortifi cation cr ill temper. Charles always had perfect command of hiurself, and bis answering letter was polite and dig nified. ; He was deeply grieved, he said, 'cj her communication, but in this, as in all other matters, be bowed himself to her lightest wish. Her letters and pres ents were returned in an accompanying packet. But oue thing he still retained the sweet memory of what had been and one privilege he should still claim the privilege of serving ber, if occa sion offered, at any future time. Though no longer her affianced lover, he begRud permission to subscribe himself her al ways devoted servant, Charles Caxton. So that affair was ended, aud Miriam r rnpr.itulated herself on baviug tsrapil flu!;, in r engagement wituout fuss, on pleasantness or sraudal. Six months eljpsed. Then a further announcement was made in tbe columns of certain Loudou aud local papers: "A marriage has been arranged and will shortly take place between Lon donderry Silkstone, Esq., of Wallseud Manor, X., aud Miriam, only daughter of the Rev. Theodore Wakefield, vicar cf X." It was soon after this announcement that Charles threw up his berth at the bank aud suddenly quitted X., without having communicated bis iuteuwou to any of his friends. Fcr several years nothing was heard in a tiny boose iu lb rmllcvt of small ways, aud even what she has i to jjd from her in event of ber manryiug acaio at least so it is popularly reported. Ratber a shame of Silkstone to tr-at ber so, I most say, though, to tw sor. ahd deserves it, in a senro, for tho way in which she treated you." No further letter was rceived from Caxton. The next event u his rrsin al retum to X. a few months laWtr As regards appearance, be was not mnoh altered except for teing somewhat tan ucd ty exposure to th weather. But in his maiiu.-r, his demeanor, bis general air, there was a v ry dooided rbuoge.

" The young man wrote iu good j j ; h 6pirit, and no wonder, for he had excel- i ay h lent news about himself to tell. It ap peared that soon afti r quittiug X. he had gone out to British Columbia, of which be had beard the highest reports from a friend of his who had settled tbere pre viously aud who incited him to como out and see the couutry fi r himself. He had accepted the invitation and, on ar riving iu tbe colony, had, first of all, helped bis friend with bis stock raising, the pursuit in which he was engaged. But after a few mouths they beard from a traveler who visited them on bis way south such glowing accounts of tbe gold finding prospects iu the Klondike re gion that they were caught with the ?o- vcr to go tbere themselves and try their luck. Fortunately his friend had some cap ital at command. Fortunately also they got into Klondiko (though only after considerable hardships) before the boom tet in. Tbey had thus been able to ac quire a small plot from the Dominion government on comparatively easy terms, and judge of their delight when they found that they bad bit upon one of the richest lots in the whole district. Charlie's friend had bad the sense to enlist at once tbe services of a compe tent mining engineer, to whom tbey had to pay the modest fee of f3,000.

In tbe next season tbey had done even better, in the season following better still, and now tbey were negotiating the sale of their lot to a syndicate at a figure which when add ed to their already large takings would make them both wealthy men (for bis friend was most generous y going equal shares with himself) for the rest of their lives. He went on to add tbat when tbe sals in question was completed and other business matters arranged ha should probably run over to tbe old country, in which event bis friends at X. might certainly rely on his looking tbeui np, nnd be concluded by asking bis friend to write and tell him all tbe news in the Leighborbood. Some people's ignorance you never find out till you know them real well. "I wonld not be wbhout Clamber Iain's Cough Remedy for its we ght in gold," writes D. J. Jones, H-iland, Va. "My wife was troubled vith a cough for nearly two years. I tried va- ?r.na Tint ant remedies, beside ncmerous prescriptions from physicians, all of hili did no irood.
