Henry I of n:!- land, wishing, it is said, bring about an alliance between his daughter Joan and William of Sicdy, recommended this priest, who had been his chaplain, for the post of pre- ceptor to the young . The English cleric grew in favor in his adopted country and was made dean of Girgent! and finally Archbishop of Palermo, and at his death in 1190 was prime min- ister of the realm. Many changes have taken place in the edifice since its first erection, the whole west end being rebuilt in the fourteenth century and the south portal in the fifteenth. Nevertheless, as it now stands, the different portions of the building harmonize well and make it a very fine specimen of the Sicilian pointed style, in which the Byzantine, Norman, Gothic and Sara- cenic styles have been skillfully blend- ed by the local genius. On the facade is visible the remark- able combination of Greek and Norman ornamentation which is so character- istic of the Sicilian architecture. On each side of the central portal are two niches containing figures of the chief JESUS- THE GREAT PHYSI- CIAN.—Luke iv.31, v.39. G-lden Text—Surely He hath borne our griefs, ‘and carried our sorrows.—Isaiah, lili4. Medical science has made wonder- ful progress during recent years. Many men have sacrificed their lives in their efforts to discover the cause and cure of the various diseases that have filled the world with sickness, suffering and sorrow. The honor roll of the men whose names have been engraved upon the records of time for their contribu- tions to human welfare and puplic health is long, byt by common con- sent when men speak of the Great Physician the world thinks of Jesus. In many- of- the- 1 tals one statue of the Master as the Great Physician, with ocutstretched arms bid- ding all who are weary and heavy laden to come unto Him. Luke reveals a professional interest in the details of the various cases pre- sented to the Great Physician. Homan “that Luke must be ranked as one of the choicest medical minds known to any age.” He took pleasure all through his gospel in picturing Christ as the physician. Many have overlooked the prominent place Jesus gave to healing men and women of their diseases. Four-fifths of the re- corded miracles of our Lord were those of healing. The skilled surgeon and talented physician recognizes the close connection between sin and sickness It has resulted in religion giving hel.“h a prominent place in its E 3 prick of a lancet opened that uere closed to missionary effort in China.

Preaching and ne-uu Our lesson, which presents 2 picture the work of the Gmt Pl sician, refers to Christ's preaching m the synagogues seven times. In all the rest of his gospel Luke mentions the Master’s preaching only twice. Following His practice of attending the services in the Jewish synagogue on the Sab- bath, our Lord entered one of the many places of worship in Capernsum. Jesus took an active part in the service nd accepted an imvitation to preach. During His exposition of the Scr! muree 'a man with an unclean spirit” an appeal to the sympathetic cnnn | The man’s sudden cries of rage and fear disturbed the synagogue. Jesus alone knew the cause of his trembling and professing. Christ could not let that opportunity of service pass, yet He was unwilling to accept testimony from such a source. The reality of demo- naical possession is clearly distinguish- able from any mental eminent physician who is a recognized specialist in psychiatry claims that they are using the same methods today in dealing with such types as the Master used successfully that day. Some psy- chologists reject the use of the term demon, yet they speak of “divided per- sonality, of complexes, of repressions and the suboonscious mind.” The Great Physician cured the man of the epir- itual ilness that interfered with his physical health.

Stevenson. sun was setting, which marked the end of the Sabbath, people commenced to bring Him all that were suffering from “divers diseases.” He treated all alike, rich and poor, high and low, for He touched them without regard to rank and healed them. The diseases that Jesus treated were not limited. Every form of sickness disappeared at His touch or word of command. The di- ceases that Christ cured have been divided into four classes, “leprosy, pe- ralysis, blindness and mental sickness.” The first and last of these were the most dreaded because they involved social outcasting. The most dreaded disease of all was leprosy. It meant banishment from society and a living death. This was s sanitary law for the protection of soc! During one of of His circuits “a man full of lep- ro8y” asked Jesus to heal him. Christ assured him that He would do so. Al- though the leper's face and hands were in all probability “covered by ul- cers and sores, so that every one could see that the hideous disease was in a very advanced stage” Jesus touched the leper. The spectators were sur- prised at the Master's disregard of the Mosaic law. the higher law of divine compassion. He knew that He could not be pol- luted. Christ ordered the healed man to meet the requirements of the law that called for the cured leper to pre- sent a pair of birds as a fee to the priest who was the sanitary officer. One of the birds was to be killed over running water, while the other was to be dipped into the blood mingled with water and then be given its freedom to iy away. This was an emblem of forgiveness. In recording the healing of the man that was palsied Luke did not employ the popular term for this disease, ‘pa- ralysis.” He used the medical term. Four friends had carried the man upon his rug and, mastering every difficulty in the way, had brought him to Christ. Jesus saw he needed spiritual help first, so He forgave him his sins. He called upon the forgiven man to demonstrate that Jesus had power to forgive sins by ordering him to take up his bed or rug, upon which he had been. carried, and walk. The man obeyed, proving conclusively to the critical crowd that | the Great Physician had power to for- | give sins. He came not to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. In His | presence sickness and sin were quickly vang . Under his strong mag- netic personality every form of disease quickly disappeared. ‘Whittier has well said, “The Good Physician liveth vet, Thy friend and guide to be; The Healer by Gennesaret Bhall walk the rounds with thee.” He is physicians to help heal men today, for He is still the world’s Great Physician, whose power to cure is givipg more vitality and life to men who trust Him. His presence with ug helps us to endure the pains of suffer- ing and sickness. He supplies the divine healing that cures disease to- day. He brings us salvation for our &in and supplies strength that helps us to endure trials and affiictior. Be- cause “He hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrow,” our Master can satisfy the real hunger of every human heart, cure our diseases and aid us to bear our burdens.

Helen bolted from the room with a gasping excuse about Tacy having for- gotten something. Tacy had forgotten nothing.

The lady left as soon after that as she could in an order of compliments and violent sachet, but she went defeated. Nina dropped into a chair, laughing to herself at the recollection of some of her best shots. “Ever notice that she plays her hus- band’s ancestors, not her own, Helen?

He always swept her along with him laughing and delighted. “I hope he'll get excited about golf,” she said, “Tommy says we're to take up golf and bridge and be very sedate when we're ‘young married set. Can't yoy see Tommy being sedate?” They both laughed lovingly over the picture of a tamed, bridge-playing, golfing, ‘Tommy.
