THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING TIME.--The ministry of John the Baptist has been thought to have nothing in those days: and when they were completed, he hungered," A' fast of forty days, while a test of the greatest severity, has heen experienc- ed by a few men in modern times, 'es- peci@lly by Dr. Henry 8. Tanner, in New York City, in the ummer of 1880, under the supervision of an ac- credited college, and without any op- portunity for deception appearing in this case, "And Jesu answering said unto trial of the Lord thy God." Once of God, and, for the third time, quotes from the book of Deuteronomy (6: 16). ; "And' when the devil had complet. ed, every temptation, he departed from him for-a season." 'Lne Lord Jesus was: gloriously, in every point, wictorious over Satan in this and all his other temptations, both Christ and the apostles later declare, (See John 14:30; 16:33; Heb. 2:18; 4:15; Rev. 3:21.) Weight of Wedding Rings Restricted BERLIN, -- A marriage re- mains on a gbdld hasls in Germany, be strictly regulated henceforth. A decree published in the Govern- ment Gazette specifies the maximum weight in fineness permissible for wedding rings, and also restricts the trade in old gold. It is part of a campaign to over- .| come the Reich's raw material short- age, Beauty of a Leg Depends on Stockings LONDON, -- The beauty of a leg depends much on the shade of the stocking in which it is displayed, ac- cording to British theatrical produc- er Charles B. Cochan. Revealing plans for a "Cavalcade of Stockings" in his next show he said: "In black stockings you have * the secret of lovely. legs. They make the most uncomely ankle look trim." hi Z Easy To' Wean solutions are fo frequently broken is 'that they are not adopted on . practical subjects--or do not make the same allowance for human nature that an éngineer makes as his "margin of safety" in building a bridge. Take the average cook, housewife, or home maker, for ex- ample. Every time she finds she has "just run out of" something when she is right in the middle of some dish that cannot: be stopped at. that point without ruining it, she makes a_ resolution to keep stocked up on that item ~ hereafter. Does she? That's the right answer! One good way to stop "running out of" things this year, is to form the "pad and pencil habit" in your kitchen. Buy a small packet of pads "and have a couple of short Yead pencils handy. Keep these in the kitchen, and warn the family it's a 'shooting offence for any one except you to use them or remove them. Then, when you find your supply of any item on your cupboard or pantry shelves is running low, write it down on the pad and keep it in plain sight until next market time. Write your shopping list below it, and you simply cannot overlook it. jconomy almost demands that yon buy your canned goods in quan- tities----they do not lose food value on your shelves, and by;atching "the market prices you can buy at dimes and rates that also keep the eanned goods from losing money value. Furthermore, a good assort- [EN 7 each item as you take it out stock. ways. So as a New Year "I am going to keep -shelf well stocked!" Recommendations 1.

CHILDREN AS COOKS Can your gon and daughter cook? They'd get lots of fun out of pre- paring and serving simpie meals even before they've reacned" their teens, Sunday night supper is a fine oc- casion to start with.

The flowers are always fresh with fortitude from been confined, 'or the most part, to the summer of A.D. 26, while the baptism and temptation of Jesus oc- curred in-January or February, A.D 2 : PLACE. -- The ministry of J:hn the Baptist, for the most part, was in the wilderness of Judea. The bap- tism of Jesus took place probably not far from the City of Jericho on the Jordan River, It was near this part of Palestine that Jesus was tempted in the wilderness. "Now it came to pass, wnen all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and pray- ing, the heaven .was opened." The question will naturally arise as to why Jesus allowed hinself to be bap- tized, and his own reason, thuy it becometh us to fulfill all righteous- ness. - (Matt. 3:15), is the only satis- fying explanation. "And the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form, as a dove, upon him, and a voice came out of liéaven, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." = The descent of the Holy Spirit, in the form of a dove, is veiled wtih-mystery, yet with beauty. ' "And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit." Here Luke shows you God's Man, his adtilt Man, thirty years:of age, his mature Man, anointed of the Spirit for Messianic work, but in the perfection of his humanity, going into the wilderness, full 6f the Holy Spirit. "Returned from the Jordan, and was led in the Spirit in the wilderness." The waste and des- ert places of the earth, are, so to speak, the characters which sin has visibly employed on the outward crea- tion; the echoes in the outward world of the desolation and waseness which sin has wrought in the inner life of men, "During forty days.' Forty is the signature of penalty, of affliction, of the confession or the punishment of sin, "Being tempted of"the devil." It is assumed everywhere in the Scriptures that 'Satan is a real per- gon. Here we have the story of hell's attempt tp thwart heayen's "purpose. This is not so much Satan attacking the person of our Lord fs attacking the purpose of God Almighty as it was to be realized by our Lord.

Dr. Tanner as a conse. quence of this extreme ordeal, He died in 1919, at the age of eighty= sevell, > "And the devil said unto him, If thou art the Son of God." . This is doubtless an allusion to the divine voice 'in his immediately preceding baptism (Luke 3:22). "Command this stone that it become bread." If Jesus could be persuaded to minister to his physical need by the super- natural power which he possessed, and thereby place himself outside of the will of God, he would be making a personal choice against the choice of God and thereby committing a pro- found sin. "And Jesus answered unto him, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone." Note the weapon which Jesus uses In defeating Satan is not one forged by his own genuity, nor the result of philosophicad:argument, but simply the Word of God) which is the sword gf the Spirit (Eph. 6:17). "And he led him up, and showed a moment of time." It has often been remarked that Christ himself un- doubtedly saw more of the kingdoms of the world at this moment than even Satan saw, as he offered them to the Saviour, : "And the devil said -unto him, To thee will I give all this authority, and the glory of them: for it hath been delivered unto me; and to whom so- ever I will I give it." Satan intimates that the enormous. influence which he possesses over human affairs may have been obtained for the promotion of the Messianic Kingdom and that all bodily shame and suffering which otherwise® lay before the Saviour of the world might he evaded. "If thou therefore wilt worship be- fore me, it shall all be thine." Notice the awful price the Lord would have to pay for unlawfully pos {essing the kingdoms of the world, nothing less than the worship of the devil, ship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."

Usually there is little of an intelli- ; gent nature that one newspaper can {say of another's anniversary. It may be written and almost invariably it is written, that the newgpaper whose anniversary is being. celebrated is & better, larger and more influential journal than when® it first started, that it has maintained a high standard of journalism; that it has retained its editorial integrity, that it should be congratulated and no doubt will keep up the good work, Such formal trib- utes are naturally written self-con- sciously. : For this reason, it affofds us an enormous amount of pleasure to intro. duce our congratulations to - The Ot- tawa Journal upon completion of its first half century with the statement that we find ourselves in relatively consistent agreement with its editor- fal point of view, in fact, we might add that The journal has a faculty for irritating us not possessed by any other newspaper which comes to this office. It irritates us because we have to read it and sometimes feel almost convinced that" in our own bolici we have erred and strayed like los! sheep. In fact sometimes, to avert a suddén conversion of ourselves to the Conservative point of view; We hasten to dip into the editorial inanities of some other Canadian publications which uphold that point of view, Then we realize that we haven't erred." Yet prejudices fasten upon one in- sidiqusly, One finds that after a time one reads the newspaper with which one is in political agreement, and ig- nores that to which one is politically opposed. But 'one reads The Ottawa Journgl, And that, surely, is the es- sence of good journalism. =~ Much could be written about the excellence of The Journal's news columns, but it is perhaps unneces- {sary.
