As to his person he tells of his re lation to humanity as born of the Virgin Mary and descended from Abraham through the great King David. srrmjjfpmrr CHAPTER SO MRAV SKIES and clrilfinz mi«ts nt rain sii’i eeiled Ihe storm a sutfi riently depressing prospect to most people; Put to Tiggie, sauntering forth with his pipe immediately after breakfast, as fair n one as he could have desired to look upon. He was in fact sublimely unaware of any climatic drawbacks since so far as he was concerned the sun had been shining permanently through out the night. His rubicund counte nance had that expression of benign contentment which had probably helped to earn him his soubriquet. He was supremely at pence with the whole universe, and it would have taken little short of an earthquake to upset his smiling equilibrium. She had asked him to go to her early, but s hint from Helen at parting kept him from presenting himself too soon. According to Helen, she had fretted herself nearly ill on his account, and a long night’s rest was essential. But then Helen of course did not know of the glory that had dawned in those few minutes that he had spent kneeling beside her bed. She could not realize that his pres ence might be an even more health giving factor than sleep. Tiggio de termined to split Hie difference as it were and go to her the moment he could honestly say that his pipe was finished. It was a point of honor with him not to hurry over it. Per haps the joy of anticipation was also too precious to be foregone. For the thought of seeing her again as he had seen her last night with all her ronl reaching out lo him was almost enough to turn Tip,'gift’s brain. But of course, as he told himself, today she would he different. Today she would have recovered from the ravages of anxiety, and would prob ably show more reserve. Yet the soft •'tuning of her eyes would tell him the same story which never could be hidden from hint again. She loved him. not as in duty bound, not as one forsaken loves a benefactor, not as protege loves a protector, but freely and splendidly, ns a woman loves her lover. It had come even to him—Tiggie, the commonplace, the good-natured bungler, the fool. Henceforth they could call him what they liked, but to one woman he would be none of these things. He would be just the man she loved. How soon would she let this amaz ing thing be known, he wondered? It would be impossible to keep it hid den for long. Helen would guess if she had not guessed already. And Bpot also was too shrewd to be hood winked. On the whole he was rather glad that Spot was still away. For Helen had the children to look after an<s could not be everywhere at once, luckily. Me had seen nothing of Harvey, 'who was apparently sleeping late. Wilnce his bedroom door was looked and his shoes waited on the mat for admittance. He knew him too well lo disturb him in his lair. He would 1n fact have prolonged his own rest if it had not been for last night’s amazing revelation which had de prived him of all desire to linger in bed. To and fro he paced In the drifting drizzle, still sticking to the bargain be had made with his pipe, but en joying it not a whit. He could not remember when Vie had relished a smoke less. To and fro—to and fro —with the miniature roar of the tor rent close at hand and the farther off roar of the returning tide which had so nearly overwhelmed him 12 hours before. Ah! A friendly voice behind him! He turned and with a smile saw Joe Penny. His pipe was but half smoked.

Thie would help to 'u»ep the rime. "Beg pardon, sir!’’ said Joe Penny in a stout wheezy voice. "How do you feel yourself this morning?” “Morning!” said Tiggie cheerily. “I'm all right; ,sound as a bell, thanks to you good fellows.” He had handsomely remunerated all of his rescuers with the exception of Harvey the previous night, and had the comfortable sense of know ing that if they considered him a fool he had at least the merit of be ing a generous one in their eyes. “Lor’ bless you, sir!” said Joe Penny. “What we did weren’t noth ing. There’s not one of us what wouldn't do a pile more nor ‘hat for a gentleman like you, sir. 1 blame myself in away for not giving you warning. It be mighty easy to get cut off along Slimby way, mighty easy it be. And it were a regular treacherous tide last night, that I will say.” Tiggie recognized that his munifi cence was meeting its reward in this tolerant opinion, and smiled his ap preciation. “It was a pretty slippy thing for you, sir,” proceeded .Too Penny, “to get right up the Slimby rock. It’s not an easy filing to do. that, even for oue of the slim young chaps. But you . . ." He paused, looking significantly at Tiggie below (he nat ural waistline. “Well, what about me?” said Tig gie. “Nothing, sir.” .Toe Penny dis creetly looked higher. “T was only just wardering how you managed it." “It’s wonderful what one can do with the deep sea behind one.” said Tiggie. “I never knew myself be fore. But it took me some time to get up, and I assure you"—he sur veyed his hands reflectively —“l’ve no desire whatever to do it. again ” Joe Penny also looked at the hands which bore abundant testimony to the violence of the struggle. “Be you a married man, sir?” he Inquired unexpectedly. “No” said Tiggie. “I mean”—he caught himself up in some confusion —“well, I may he. What do you want to know for?” “Oh. nothing, sir, nothing,” said the landlord peaceably. "Excuse the liberty! I was only thinking what a mort of fuss your good lady’d make if she saw them hands o’ yours.” “Oh, I see” said Tiggie, aware that he had turned a fiery red and deeply resenting the fact. “Well. I'd better put some gloves on them If you think the ladies won’t like it.” “I warn’t saying that, sir,” pro tested Joe. “But she —they might think as how you’d gone through more than p’raps you’d want ’em to know of., Always keep back the worst’s rpy mdttfe, for my old woman, sir, she's a regular fusser.” He looked at Tiggie and slowly shook his head. "Shouldn’t be in no hurry to get married if I was you, sir. There's things for and against, as I always say. things for and against.” “Let’s hear the against!” said Tig gie cheerily. He only knew Mrs. Penny as a thin voiced woman in the background who always seemed to be calling someone to order. Joe Penny continued to shake his head. “I’m not speaking of myself, sir,” he said. “We’ve never had a quarrel in our lives, but as I say, I always keeps back the worst. It’s the only way with women.” “Right!” said Tiggie.* ♦i’ll remem ber that.

Joe Penny once more ponderously shook his head. “That’s why I'm telling you. sir. Don't you get mar* ried in a hurry! Marriage— mar* riage is like the tide.” He spoke weightily, as though inspired. "It cuts you off when you aren't looking, and you can’t get back. You remem ber that, sir!

We’re here to help each other,” said Joe Penny. “And E knows how easy it is to get caught —only too easy, sir.” Tiggie took out his pipe and looked at it. “Easier than catching, what ?” he suggested. “I never had to do no catching,” said Joe Penny in a tone of depres sion. “It was all done for me. that was. Not that I’m speaking per sonally, sir.” he added after a mo ment, “No one's ever had a happier married life nor what J has.

All right, woman!" as a higher and more urgent sum mons reached him. “Coming! I’rq coming!” He shambled within as the voice of his spouse cried irritably. “And don’t you call me woman neither!

ALVIN E. BELL Reviewing this gospel of Christs Kingship we might indicate its con tents in three words, viz., (1) His Per son, 1:1-4:11; (2) His Preaching, 4:12- 16:20, and (3) His Passion, 16:21- 28:20. The eleven lessons of the past three months have dealt with the Person of the King and his Preach ing of the Kingdom. The lessons of the next three months following Eas ter will deal with the Passion of the King. The section of the gospei dealing with the King’s Person establishes (1) his ancestry. 1:1-17, as a descend ant of the great King David and his ancestral father Abraham, head of the Jewish race; (2) his Advent is re corded in 1:18-2:23, recounting the su pernatural circumstances of his birth as the Son of God “conceived of the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary,” as revealed to Joseph by the angel of the Lord; (3) the King’s Am bassador and his ministry are spoken of in 3:1-12; (4) the King’s Anoint ing at his baptism, in which John witnesses the Holy Spirit coming up on him and heaven’s attestation in the voice off God, “This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased," are told us in 3:13-17; Ihis section closes with the account of the King’s Ad versary, the devil, “tempting him in all points like as we are tempted, yet without, sin.”, 4:1-11. This section nf Matthew’s gospel dealing with the personality of the King might be sum raarized .by saying that in it is estab lished the unique Personality of the King: (1) In relation to earth in his assumption of humanity through the royal line of David; (2) a relation, to heaven as witnesses in his anoint ing by the Holy Spirit and the Fath er’s testimony to his son ship and per fection, and (3) his relation to hell in his victory over Satan in the wild erness temptation.

GOLDEN TEXT—lsaiah 9:0 personality is established and he is ready to announce his program in the preaching - of his Kingdom. The Preaching of the Kingdom In the Sermon on the Mount the King enunciated the principles of his Kingdom as follows: (1) Its nature is spiritual; (2) its purpose is the sal vation of the. world; (3) its policy is the fulfillment of the law not its nul ificiation; (4) its spirit is that of gen uine sincerity not outward show; (5) its reward are heavenly and abiding, not material and perishing; (6) its at mosphere is love as summarized in the Golden Rule, and (7) its goal is life as the fruit and justifying proof of all doctrine and teaching. This doctrine of the Kingdom taught with such authority is now demonstrated by the King with the same amazing authority in the realms of disease and demons as he com mands and they depart; in the realm of the deep as he authoritatively ad dress wind and wave and they obey him; in the realm of deity as he dem onstrates his divine authority to for give sin; in the realm of death as he raises the child of Jairus from the dead. Opposition to the King Having demonstrated his kingly au thority the King sent out his 12 dis ciples to promulgate his principles. He prepares them for the opposition with which they are to meet and pro dieted in his parables of the King dom (Chap. 13) the ultimate results of this opposition. Subsequent events demonstrate these predictions in the rapidly increasing opposition which leads the King to announce the cer tainly of his crucifixion, and prepare himself and them for the journey to the cross.
