THE LESSON" IN ITS SETTI.\G Time. â€" The First Epistle to the Thes.sa!onians was the first letter by the a[)03tle Paul of which we have any record, and was written about A.V. 54. The Epistle to the Gaiatians was written before the Epistle to the Romans, probably in A.D. 51, while the First Epistle to the Corinthians was written about one year later. Place. â€" The city of Corinth and th-3 city of Thessalonica were both in Greece, the former in the sou- th H-n part, and the latter in the r.orthern ; Galatia was located in the northern part of the great pen- insula of .Asia, known to us to-day as Asia Minor. St. Paul left Corinth in con- sequence of a determination he had formed to spend the approach- ing feast at Jerusalem. In con- sevjuence of the earnest entreaty of the Ephesians that he would give thorn the benefit of his pres- ence he spent three years among them on his return from Jerusa- lem. But the latter part of his stay w;is disquieted by reports of disorders at Corinth. Paul could could not leave Ephesus at pres- ent, for a ''great door and effec- tual" had been opened to htm there. But the occasion was urg- ent, and could not wait for his personal presence. 1. Paul, called to be an apcstle of Jesu3 Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes oui- brother, 2. unto the church of God which is at Coiinth, even them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus in. every place, their Lord and ours: 3. Grace to j'ou and peace from God our Father and the .Lo)?d Jesus Christ. These three verses take us at once into the heart of Christianity. Division in the Church 10. Now 1 beseech you, breth- ren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions amcng you ; but that ye be perfected together in the same ' nvind and in the same judgment. 11. For it hath been signified un- to me concerning you, my breth- ren, by them that are of the house- hold-of Chlpe, that there are con- -tentions among you. , .

They divid- ;d rather over their respective alle- giwices, j;i^,soa3e <if^bg.. great men in fhe chiircli'of the' apostolic age. Spme wouH say thay followed Paul in his teaching; others would say they inreferred the teaching of Apollos; while others claimed to be adherents of the apostle. Peter; and then some, probably the most boastful, claimed to be followers of Christ's teaclting. Now, the apostle says that they ought not to be followers of any name, e.K- cept the name of Jesus Christ, and that all the apostles, himself, Apoiloj, Peter, and the rest, were saved only by Christ's death, and recognized only Christ as Lord and Savior. 4:14. I write not these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. 15. For though ye have ten thousand tu- tors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I begrit you through the gospel. 16. I beseech you therefore, be ye imitators of me. 17. For this cause have 1 sent unto you Timo- thy, who is my beloved and faith- ful child in the Lord, who shall put you in remembrance of my ways which are in Christ, even as 1 teach everywhere in every thurch. IS. Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming â- to you. r.'. But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will; and J will know, not the word of them that are puffed up, but the power. 20. For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. 21. What will ycV shall I come unto you â- with a rod, or in love and a spirit ol gentleness? Brotherly love is of the very â- es: *».ice lof Christianity. Every fcelicver is taught of God to love j the brother who shares hi.s faith; \ â- Bch love is the best and only I Ifuaranty of his own salvation. The j brotherly love of the early church was not only visible to the world ; \ it was its great recommendation in the world's eyes. The early j Chri.-ilian churches were little companies of people where love I was at a hiifh temperaiure, where Brockville Glimpses A Smiling King and Queen En route froir. OUav.-a to Toronto, with a short stop at Kingrston, the King and Queen are seen as the^y stepped out on to the balcony of their observation car as the royal train slowed, while passing through Brock- ville, where the residents were massed for their short greeting. outward pressure very often tight- ened the inward bands, and where mutual confidence diffused con- tinual joy. 1 Thes. 4:12. That ye may walk becomingly toward them that are without, and may have need of nothing. The gospel bids tis to be glad to give where help is requir- ed; but it also bids us to strive not to require help and thus bur- den others. 13. But we would not have yo^a ignorant, brethren, concerning them that fall asleep; that ye sor- row not, even as the rest, who have no hope. 14. For if we be- lieve that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also that are fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we that are alive, that are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall in no wise precede them that are fallen asleep. IG. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first; 17. then we that are alive, that are left, shall together with them be caught yp in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: anci so shall we ever be with the Lord. These precious verses teach at least the folowing truths: (1) that the Lord Jesus Christ himself will return visibly, (2) his wil be a triumph- ant return. (3) When he returns for his own, those Christians who have passed on in death will rise first; that is, their bodies will rise from the grave. (4) We who are living on earth at that hour will be caught up with them. (5) Those rising from the grave, and those living on earth when the Lord re- turns, will meet Christ in the air; it does not say that we shall stay in the air. (H) For all eternity we shall be in the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. Unselfish, Godly Life 5:12-15. 12. But we beseech you, brethren, to know theni that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; 13. and to esteem them exceed- ing highly in love for their work's selves. 14. -And we exhort you, sake. Be at peace among your- ' brethren, admonish the disorderly, encourage the faint-hearted, sup- port the weak, be longsufTering to- ward all. 15. See that none ren- der ujito any one evil for evil; but always follow after that which is good, one toward another, and toward all. In the first two vers- es of this rich paragraph the apostle is speaking of those who were the officers and apointed rul- ers in the church at Thessalonica. Love is the secret of living the holy, unselfish, godly life Paul here describes. The characteristics of a Christian eniunerated here can only become realities in our lives by our deliberate determination to practice these virtues â€" always, without ceasing, in everything.

GARDENING RESETTING AND GROWING RHUBARB No fruit or vegetable garden ia complete without from six to 12 roots, according to the size and needs of the family, of either Ruby or Macdonald rhubarb. Rhu- barb thrives best on a comparii- tively rich, deep, well drained soil. The soil selected should be prefr- ably prepared by spading in deep- ly and thoroughly a good applica- tion of stable manure. Where space will permit it may be plowed un- der. Early the following Spring the soil should bo well worked up and a commercial fertilizer, pre- ferably S-10-5 applied at the rata of five pounds per square rod and well mixed with the soil prior to planting. Select Single Crowns When resetting crowns., taken from old dug-up clumps, single crowns should be selected, remov- ing all old roots. These are set three feet apart in rows five feet apart. Plant the crown so that it* growing tip is just below the sur- tace of the soil and tramp the soil firmly. Hoe, dig or cultivate at intervals to loosen the soil and control weeds. After the Autumn frosts kill tlie leaves, mulch with straw or strawy manure for tho Winter. Remove this in Spring and continue to dig and cultivate. Strong rapid growth of the leaves is the objective. The leaves man- ufacture the nutrients that devel- op the roots, in which are stored the reserves of food that make for the rapid growth of the stalks that we use as food in the early Spring. Remove no stalks the first year, but few the second, and after that never more than half the stalks that develop. The result will then be large, long, tender stalks for fhe table. It takes tlu-ee or four years to develop a really produc- tive crown. Every farmer or gardener who has a good house cellar should grow his own Winter rhubarb.
