LESSON FOR JANUARY 12
MAN THE CROWN OF CREATION
LESSON TEXT—Genesis 1:26, 27; 2.7-9;
15-24.
GOLDEN TEXT— God created man in
his own image." Gen. 1:27.
Ten times the words, “and God
said” appear in the first chapter of
Genesis. God spake, and ‘twas done.
Now all is in readiness earth and heav-
en await hia word, “and God said let
us make man.” It would seem as
though a conference was being held
before this momentous event. The
“let us make" is full of suggestion.
That each person of the Triune God-
head was present in creation we saw
in last week’s lesson, and it is here’
still further indicated by the plural
form of the Hebrew noun for the
name of God. But what pattern shall
But Dr. McCarthy is a physician
who lives on Long Island, where
there is s plentiful supply of shell
fish, and he baa always told his pa-
tients not to eat raw oysters. He
has said that raw oysters are likely
to be unwholesome. Maybe he had
followed his own advice up to the
time of the church supper. At sny
rate, first oyster or not first oyster,
he found a great big pearl in one
that was put before him st the sup-
per, and it wasn't cooked, either, and
spoiled, because the oysters were' un-
wholesomely raw.
Dr. McCarthy has given the pearl
to the church, to be sold for the
church’s benefit It is not stated
we follow in the making of man? ... . .
Surely only the highest and best, whether he is going to eat any more
hence “in the image of God.” This raw oysters in the hope of finding
does not necessarily mean the physi- another pearl. But that would be
cal image, but rather the intellectual - good argument for his patients

3:10, Eph. 4:24, John 5.25. God who

proved that man came from the low-
er animals, and it is a scientific secret
that at this point the real leaders
of science are at a pause. The dust
of our bodies is the same as yonder
stars, as the illy of the field, as that
which kings and queens are made.
But still there are higher heights,
for God breathed into this man his
own spirit, verse 7, and from this
union of the body and spirit man be-
came a living soul. Man Is the con-
necting link between the material and
the infinite, by the physical he is re-
lated to lower nature and by the spir-
itual he is related to God.
If ths theory of the rehabilitation
of this earth after the destruction of
ths pre-adamite races is true (chap.
1:2-13), we now see God in his won-
drous grace preparing a place for
man’s especial abode, vv. 8, 9, 15-24.
The two accounts of creation in the
first and second chapters of Genesis
are not contradictory, and to make
them so one must read into the nar-
rative what is not there. The first
presents a concise outline of creation,
the second an enlargement that con-
nects these events with the region
where man began to live, the starting
point of the present human race.
That Eden was undoubtedly in the
region of the Euphrates and'the Tigris
rivers is pretty generally accepted,
though, of course, we can only specu-
late as to the cradle of the human
race. ---------------------—.....
After God had created Adam with
the highest nature the animals were
not fit companions for him. Nor could
he be the beginning of the race of,
man without one like to himself. Man
can attain his highest only as he has
human companionship (v. 18). Adam
had the power of speech, and an intel-
ligence, and was given the right to
name the animals of the field (v. 19).
But in all this there was no compan-
ion for him (v. 20).
... . - Unity of Life.
In the first account is the simple
statement that God created "male and
female," but in the second we see
that man is not complete without the
woman. God's mode was to make her
“bone of his bone" (vv. 22, 23). This
suggests the utmost possible unity of
man and' wife; unity of life, of soul,
of emotions, of home, etc. Matthew
Henry calls to our attention the wom-
an was not taken from “out of his
head to top him, nor out of his feet

LONG TWENTY-FOUR HOURS.
To be imprisoned for twenty-four
hours with snakes and rats ss com-
panions, was the recent experience
of a Salida, Colo., hotel clerk, named
Burrows. While taking a walg in
the mountains near there the man
entered a deserted mine, using light-
ed matches to guide him. He fell
into a pit twelve feet deep, receiv-
ing painful cuts about the head. Hia
cries were finally heard by three
boys, who rescued him.
SUCCESSFUL RUSE.
"Well, Jingle,” said the manager,
“did you make the sale?”
“Yes,” said the salesman. “I
couldn’t get the darned old machine
to run over half-speed, but I ar-
ranged with one of the town con-
stables to arrest us for exceeding
the speed limit, and old Skeesicks
fell for it right away.”—Judge.

The marriage relation is the most
sacred of all human ties (v. 24). It la
the best possible training and educa-
tion in love, sacrifice, duty, victory
over evil, in all that is best in life.
These are the qualities needed to
build up the race. When one is de-
graded the other of necessity is low-
ered. To understand the full meaning
of the marriage relation we need to
comprehend the relation of Christ and
his church. Eph. 5:31, 32.
If, then, man has such a high be-
ginning, does not that very fact im-
pose upon him a burden of responsi-
bility to his Creator? "Nobility means
obligation," and to renounce is base
ingratitude. Even as God said, "let
us make man,” so by his power we are
