TEE LESSON I.\' ITS SETTING Time. â€" Tl-.e Second Epistle of Pi.-1 to the Corinthians v.-as writ- ten about .\.D. 57, not loni after tht writintir of tlie First Epistle. Thf Epistle to the Philippians was wr-;ten whi!? Paul was a prisoner in Horn:?, perhaps A.D. C2. The Serind Epistle to Timothy was WT-.".ten just before his martyrdom, ptrhap-- A.D. 07. I'laOv-. â€" The Second Epistle to thf Corinthians was \\t itten from E;/.-.esus; boch the Epistle to the P.n.iippians and the Second Epistle to Timothy were written from R:.-.ie. V>'ouId you say that the apostle Pf.:] in serving the Lord Jesus Cr.rist had an easy life? Do you fir :i in Paul's reSord of his many ar.d severe suiTerings any word of complaint, any moan or .=iob? Do you thiniv tiiat Paul was a joy- oaj man? What leads yoi to be- lieve emphatically that the thorn in Paul's riesh was not some fierce t€r.iptation of the flesh, which w.ald be so abhorrent to God? â- What do you think of the suflfer- ir.Ci which Paul endured did for hin". as regards his own loyalty to ar.d faith in Jesus Christ? 12. Now I would have you know, brerhren, that the things which h£.ppened unto me have fallen out rarhcr unto the progress of the g-";pel: 13. so that my bonds be- CE.mc manifest in Christ through- oi'. the whole praetorian guard. and to all the rest; 14. and that n:>?t of the brethren in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear. The ap-ostle's imprisonment was a pow- e:iul stimulant to the zeal of the Roman Christians; it indicates one particular direction of the apos- tle's influence upon the pagans around him. The "praetorian guard" means the imperial guard. They were ten thousand in number, picked rcen, originally of Italian birth, but drawn later from Macedonia, Noricum, and Spain. Life In Christ 21. For to me to live is Christ. Pi'obably no phase of seven words anywhere in the Bible presents a more perfect, comprehensive, character-molding ideal than these words of Paul, and the man or wo- man who truly lives them is sure- ly the fullest rounded of all Chris- tions. - Christ must be the origin of our life. Christ must be the essence ci our life. Christ must also be the model of our life. Christ must also be the aim of our life. Christ must be the solace of our life. Christ must be the reward of our life. 22. But if to live in the fleshâ€" if this shall bring fruit from my work, then what I shall choose I know not. 23. But I am in a strait betwixt the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ: for it is very far better. 24. Yet to abide in the flesh is nvre needful for your sake. Phil. 3:12-1-4. 12. Not that I have already obtained, or am al- ready made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which also I was laid on by Christ Jesus. Paul had just set forth the absolute centrality of Christ in his own life, and how he gave up everything, counting all as iiothing, that he might really win Christ, be found in Christ, know Christ, and all the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings. Still, Paul was not satisfied with what he had at- tained, even though the grt>ater part of his life was over. Still, Paul was determined to pro.Ks on for greater knowledge, deeper ap- prehension of Christ, a closer re- semblance 10 hi.s Master. 13. Brethren I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing [ do. forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward !o the things which are tcfore. II. I press on toward the ^al unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesu.s. The truth is, we ought always to â- be making progress; since not to "be going forward is to be losing ground. These arc the twin se- â- crets of true advance in our high- est life: "forgetting those things that are behind, reaching forward ito those things that are before." 2 Tim. 4:7. 7. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith. Paul <lud suffered everything, had en- dured every conceivable insult, had kept churches from going to pie- ces, had labored with souls far jnto the night, and now that he it Que«n Is Interested In Girl Scout's Medal The King, too, is an.xious to see the medal worn by Girl Scout Leah Burkett which Queen Elizabeth is examining: after Scout Burkett presented the Queen with a bouquet of ttowers as the royal party left the White House to attend the garden party at the British Embassy in Washington. GARDENING A suitable destroyer for weeds or grass in driveways is com.mon salt, the cheaper and coarser th« better. Not only will a liberal application of this about one or two handfuls to the square foot destroy gri'ass, weeds, poison ivy, etc., but it will also bind gravel together into an even surface, keep down dust and repel frost. In some parts of Canada salt is used on all gravel roads and gives a surface equal to light pavement. PESTS Garden insect enemies are divi- ded into two groups â€" those that cat holes in the foliage and those that suck out the juices. For the first-named, poison is usually ap- plied, while the suckers are at- tacked with a burning spray which penetrates. Often when both are present, a combination of poison and something that burns, such as linis sulphur and arsenate, gives lime, sulphur and arsenate, gives the biting insects is usually quite apparent, but the presence of the other kind is only shown at first by a wilting or withering of the foli- age. For sucking pests, chief of which are the aphids or plant lice, spray with whale oil soap, a quar- ter pound of soap to a gallon and a half of water; nicotine sulphate, or "Black Leaf 40," or any other repellent secured from a reliable seed store. Cut worms which eat through newly set out plants at the base of the stem, are destroyed by the spreading of sweetened poisoned bran about the plants. Where there are only a few plants to pro- tect, the same may be provided with paper collars.

S. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give to me at th«t day; and not to me only, but also to all them that have loved his appearing. The brilliant sequel of the Greek's athletic triumph was his wreath or crown of laurel. trunks, comparatively few wear the entire pyjama suit, and many el- iminate it altogether, says a story ia the Toronto Globe and Mail. Laundries notice the difference, and Canadian manufacturers of men's apparel have also taken no- tice of this summer custom. They have produced for this summer a sleeping jacket which is styled aft- er a pyjania coat, but which comes down to the knee like a short night- shirt. "It's more respectable than just a pyjama top," remarked the manager of a Yonge street haber- dashery. With Buttons and Sash The uew style of sleeping jacket does not herald a popular return to the pre-war style of nightshirt, al- though that still is adhered to by- some men, haberdashers claim. They say men don't like pulling it over their heads. But the sleepins jacket has buttons like the shorter coat, and some even hare a sash to make it look lik^ a short dress- ing gown.

REG'LAR FELLERS~A Hot Lead Examinations for drivers' licen- ses are made in the daylight. Most motorists leara to drive in the daylight.
