Jhe ycrits have brought us as n peo¬ ple a growing reverence for hitn who was In truth tho "Kulher of Uls Coun¬ try." 'J'inie h.-is Invested liim with god¬ like attributes, yet none the less lie was a man among men, and Ihe hot blood of youth ran tuniiilluously in Iris veins.
At the nge of llfteen, like lu.iny an¬ other   schoolboy,   Washington   fell   in lovo.     riic  man who was destined  lo be the Commander of Ihe Itevoltitlon- nry .\riiiy wandere<l through the shad¬ ed groves of Monnt Vernon composing verses,   which   fnnn   a   critical   stand- I point were very bad.

Among these fragments there Is also nn Incomplete acrostic, evidently In¬ tended for .1 .Miss I'rances .\ leia nder.
He wrote a I lengtb to several of his
Inilonnry fame, was the son of the "Lowland Heauty,' and some tender memories of the mother may have been mingled with Washington's fondness for the joiiiig soJUer.
It was "I.iglit Horse Harry," also, who said of the l'«iminaiiiler-ln-Clilef thnt he wns "lirst in war, hrst In peace, and tirst In the iienrts of his cotiiitry- uieii." Hy aiiother trick of I'aie, the grandson of the "Lowland Heauty" was (ieneral Ilobert i:. I.ee. Who can say what inoineiitoiis changes miglit have    lieen     wrought   in  liisloiy   hml
111 Il.c s[iriiig of 1 r.'iX Washington met Ills late, lie was riding on horseback ifoni .Mouiii V.M'iion to W illinmsbi.'r%' with imiiortant dispatches. In crossing a fonl of the I'amnnUey he fell In with a .Mr. Cbambcriyne, who llve<l In t^ie nelglitwrhood. With true Virginian hospitality he prevailed upon Washing¬ lon to take dinner nt his Iiouse. mak¬ ing the arraiigi'iuent with lUlticultjr, however, since the soldier was Inipiv- ticiit to get lo Williamsburg.
Oni e Inside the Colonial house, whose liospltalile balls breathed welcome, his impatience, and even the errand Itself, were well-nigh forgotten.    .V negro ser- \iiiit led  Ills horse  np  nnd  down the giaveltil walk  in  fmnt of  the house; ! the  servHiit    g.ew     tlnil.   the    liorse i ii:iwed and  snilted   with   iiiipntleiice— : and Washington llngereil. j     A petite, hazel-eyed woman—she who [ was once I'a tsy  Danrldge, luit now the i widow of llanlel I'arke CustIs—was de¬ laying linportatit iitTalrs.    At nightfall Ihe ilistracteil wnrrlor renirmbered his iiiis.sinii, and niiiile a liiisiy .idiei:.    .Mr. Chanilierlyiie, niei'tliig him at the door, laid a restraining liand ii|ion his arm. ¦'.No guest ever leaves my bouse nfter sunset," he said
'Ihe horse was put up, the servant given Ills liberty, .".ml Washington re- iiiHined nntil the ticM mo'-ning. when with new linppiness In Ins heart, he ilasheil on to Williamsburg.
Wc may well rancy that her Image was liefoi-e llim all the way. yfie had worn a gown of white diiiiily, with a duster of .Ma.\-blossoms at her belt, and ." little white widow's cap half covered her soft brown ban.
She was twenty-six. some three moiilhs younger than Washington; wealthy, and had two children. Mr. Custis was injch older lhan his "I'atsy," for she was 'iiiirried when she was but seventeen. Ile wns a faithful and an'ectionnte husband, but he had not appealed to her liua,Tination, nnd It wns doubtless Ihrougli her liungliia- tlon that the big \irgiula Colonel won ber heart.
She left .Mr. Chamberlayues, and went to her home—the "White liouse" —near Willlnm's reiry. 'Ihe slory is that when Wasl'lngton came from Wlll- iaiiisbnig he was met at the ferry by one of .Mrs. Custis' slaves. "Is yonr mistress at home'.'" he iin|Ulrcd of the negro who was rowing hh across the river.   .
"Yes, sail," replied tb: darky; then .-iddetl, slyly, "I reckon :ou am de man what nm expected."
It was lato ill the nfternoon of the next day when Wasbington took his ileparliirc. but he had her promise, and was happy. A ring was ordered from I'liilailclpliia. and Is duly set down In his aeconnls, "one ongagciueiit ring, two pounils sixli'cn shillings."

The t"ei'ling hi the Senate was in¬ tense, thougli Ihe expn'ssiiin* of Sena¬ tors were lomhed in tem|ienite lan¬ guage. There was nmre under lhan on the surface. liefereines lo the Santo Hoiningii situathm were Imth veiled and iiwliiecl. but the Senators present thoiimghly understiHid that Iheir aetion was IntendiM to be a hint lo the I'lvsideiit not to go too fast in ilenling with <oniplicated foreign af¬ fairs without eonsnlting the e<ie<]ual treaty making power.
Statements clearly liidicalliig Ihat Ihe Senators were aware of the gravity of the situation were made liy such dose friends of the President and the .VdmlnlKfratloii as Messrs. Lodge. I'or- aker nnd .Sixxnier. who Insisted Ihnl the Senate shoulil |ireserve its coiistitii Ihiiial right lo partlclpHte in the mak ing of treaties without regard lo the ilesires of the rresideiil.

The dIttii'Ulty arose over an elTorl by the Sennte lo have itsdf consulted in cases of iirb\|ratlnn.

"In each Individual mse the high loiitnii ling parties before appenlliiK to the Permanvnt Court of -Vrbitrntlon shall coiK-lude a Kjieciiil agreement de- hiiiiig dearly tho nialter in dispute."
The Sennte ("ommiltee on I'oreign lii'lations changed the word "agree- liieiiC' to "ireiiiy."

I. .Tmus at the feant (vs. 1-4). I. "A^ ter this." •"Alter thne things." R. 'V. Some think that when .lohn is telling some event which follows inimediatrly after the laat tiling narrated, hr uw. the ezprcasi<» "after this thing" (chap. 3:13), but thai when there baa Iwcu an interval of tiaa be uses the exprntion "after these Xhinn.'* ".\ feast.'' "There has been mueh diSer- ence of opinion as to whst feast this waa, but ii it the opinion now of the beat writ¬ er, thst it was the I'sMover. 12. "Br the sheep gale" (R. V.I We know from Neh. 3:1. Xi: 12:38 that there was s sheep gate; so called ni-oliahly from sheep for sacrifice Iieing sold there. It was near the temple. "The Hebrew tongue." Hebrew here means  Aramaic,   the  hiiiguage  spoken  at
' the time, not the nhl Hehrew oi the Scrip- lures. "Belhe.iia " 'fhi. nsmc does uot occur elsewhere. It nicai^ "house of mer¬ cy." The site is net idcntihed wilh cer¬ tainly. The traditional .put it near Castle Antonia. Rut ]> Knhin.on think, "the fountain of the Virgin." an intermittent spring in the snutheatt of the rity, near the pool of Silaom, was Bethesda. "Five porcnei." These porrhet weiti probably covered arcailes, colonades or verandas, open nt one side to the air. but protected against the ann or rain nverhenil. In a kol country like ralr.tinr .urh buildings arc very nK-essary. 3. "Multitude." The sick coniregsted here in great number*.
if. Jc.uii heala an impotent man (vs. 6-9). 5. "An inlirmily." The original im¬ plies ralher a lona of power than a positive diicsie; probsbly it waa a nervous disease of psraJytic type. "Thirty and eight years." The duration of Ihe illness ie mentioned, either to .how how inveterate and difficult it wa. tn heal, or rather, ac¬ cording to verae 8. to espluin the deep comMwiion with which Jesiu was alleeted on beholding the unhappy man. From verse 14 ne may infer thst hit diaeaae was the result of the ains of hit youth.
«. "Knew." The word "knew" in the originsi indicates one ot" thoae instsntan- eous perceptions by which Ihc truth be¬ came known to Jesua according at the taak of Ihe moment demanded. \ erae 14 will show that the whole life of the sufferer ia present to the eye of .lesua, as Ihst of the Samaritan woman wat in chapter 4. "Baitk unto him." I'aually Chriat waited until He was aaked before He relieved the aaf- fering, but in Ihia and a few other easel He healed without being saked. He read the man's pa.t life nnd present condition of mind, and aaw that he was in a stat* to receive spiritual good from the keaUng. "Wilt thou?" Wiiy doea He ask a tjuea- tion to which the anawer waa so obvious? Probably in order to rou.e the sick man out of his lelhsrgy and ile«)>oiidency.
7. "No man." He wa. friendless aa well at sick. "Is troubled." 'fhis apring, ytob- ably the fountain of the Virgin, is inter- mitteni to thit dsy, snd various travelers have seen it suddenly riae from ftve inche* to a foot in five miiiutea. Whedon thinks that the moving of the watera arose from an underground connection of the pool ivith tbe city water workt. The occasional and intermittent diaturbanee of the water is not to be underalood as a regular occurs rence, but as something sudden and quick¬ ly uasing away. Hence the man'a waiting and compUint. "Put me into the pool, laterally, "in order to throw" ms into the pool; perhsps implying thst the gush ol wster did not Isst long, and there waa no time to be lott in quiet carrying. "While I am coming." Thua picturing the eatreme baate and rapidity wilh which Ihe favor¬ able opportunity wat aeicrd. There wasa ruth snd scramble for the one chsace.
8. "RiK," etc. Commands like these would test the nisn't faiih and obedience. Aa in the caae of thr paralytic (Mark 3:V)i Chritt made no enquiry «t to Ihe man's failh. Chriat knew Ihat he had faith, and the man'a attempting In rite and carry bia
'bed after thirty-eight years of impotesci wsa sn open confeisian of faith. "Bed.' Frolubly only a mat or rug, still common in the I<>al. 9. "Ami walked." Witb the eommand was given Ihc (Kiwer of obe¬ dience. Sn Ihe sinner who it bidden to commit himself to (.'hri.t need not wait for any compulaion. At he make, the ef¬ fort he will find divine power within him¬ self. ".Salihalh." The .rvenib day of the week, the ,IrwiBh Sabbath.
III. Peraeculioa of the .fetrs (va. lOU). . ]0. "Not Jawful." Jeremiah.bad oom- manded, "Tace need to yourselves, and bear no burden on tbe Sabbath dsy" <Ml 31), snd the Jews interpreted this aa for> bidding the carrying of the lightest weight. But Jeremish's mcsning is made clear by Neh. 13:13: "Treading wine presses on the Kabbslb, and bringing in .heaves, and lad¬ ing asses," elc. "To forbid thia man from carrying his bed wat like forbidding a iat>d- ern man to move a camn.atool or a chair."
II. "He—aaid." I'nqiiettinnsbly tiis words seem to say that ooe who could do such a wonder aa beslini me niu.t certain- ly have the right to lell me what to de. He had been authorised by one endorsed as sent from Uod. And thia was indeeil the very ground which Chritt HissasU took. I'i. "Wbo is the man" (R. V.) They ignore tbe miracle, and sttack the L'ommsnd. They stk not, "Who cured thee, sud therefore mutt hsve divine au¬ thority?" but, "Who told thea to bredl the Sabbath, and therefore could mtt Me* it?' 13. "Knew not" (R. V.) .leeue had been in Jerusalem but little, and tbe aaa who was healed hsd prolwbly never eeea Hlin. "Conveyed himaelf swsy." Batter, withdrew. Literally, "tlipped sside," be¬ came auddenlv lott to tight. "A Bultt' tude," etr. 'This may be andsrstaed u eiplaining either why he withotew—to avoid the rrowd, or Ine manner in wMeb bc withdrew—by dtaappearing At the crowd. Either cxplaaatioa makee ftot senae.
IV. Jeans gives sdviee aild waruiac to, 14). 14. "Afterward." ProhaUy soM af; terward; In a day or so. "Pindeth Uat." Jeaut hsd Hit eye on the msn; Hm week wilh him wsa not yet flnithed: this meetj ing wa. not srridental. "In the temple. A good place fnr the man In be. "Bin n« ¦ore." (;od a.ka thi. nf every ainnsr. And yet there are thoae who iaaist that ll it impoaaihle In live without ain ia thie hfe, but if audi it Ihr caM Iben Jesae ssked thia man lo dn the impossible. "A worae thing" A paralyti" from which ao pool ran restore and no Kaviour will de¬ liver; the most terrible calailrophe of the soul's eternal history.
V. The man heap testimony (v. It). IS "Told the Jew..* eb . In reply lo tbe inquiry Ihey hsd made nf him a ihort time lieinre, partly ill ulicdicnce to the autbori- he. tnd partly to complete hia apology for liimaelf.
