THE OREOON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. MONDAY KVEWWO, NOVEMBER M, -ltOi. ' - OLD PICTURES POT INTO NEW FRAMES Dr. Edgar P. Hill Begins a Series of Sermons on the Tpn Commandments, f MANY CONCEPTIONS OF GOD TO CHOOSE FROM The Selection Must Be Made in Accord with Reason and Revelation. Dr. Edgar P. HU1 last ever, Inn began a series of sermons on ths ten commanJ- ments. under the general toplo of "Old Pictures In New Frames In the in troduction the speaker explained ths signification of ths topic of ths ssrles In these words: "Mrs. Malaprop. the lady who always ays the wrong word and does ths wrong thing, buy a picture for twenty five cents and then spends three dollars of her husband's hard-earned money for a frame. Then she sl,ts before the com bination in happy meditation. The frame advertises its value. One can are at a glance that It cost several dollars. I As Mrs. Mslaprop's chief concern Is to Impress upon her friends ths fact that the articles In her home have 1 coat money. She looks upon her purchase with no attempt to conceal her aatla faction. The moat cssual visitor will say at once 'What a Ana frame!' "In the Dresden srt gallery Is a pic ture which the wealth of Rockefeller could not buy. If It were announced that Raphael'a picture, 'Madonna.' had been sold, the emperor would laaua or ders that the treasure would not be al lowed to be taken from the empire, even If the army had to be mobilised. How much did the frame of that picture cost? It la almost sacrilege to aak such a question. I saw the picture a few years ago, but I have really forgotten whether it haa a frame. "A great picture does not need much of a frame. And yet a frame has its use. It should not be Intrusive. It should withdraw attention from the picture itself. its uae la te shut oft everything elst. so that attention may w be directed 4o that which Is essential the picture. Thames Old as Humanity. "This evelnlng I propose to draw your attention to the first of a series of pictures, or themes old themes, about as old aa humanity. I am going " to give them a new setting. I an go ing to put new frames on them, not to draw your minds away from the old themes, but to emphasise them. I am going to take ten words written 40 cen turies ago end give them the setting of tba twentieth century. Thla Is the rea son I have given then ths general topic. Old Pictures In New Frames ' " After describing the circumstances tinder which ths ten words ware first spoken and drawing attention to toe remarkable fact that In the midst ot the grossest superstition thla lofty con-' caption of Ood and duty appeared. Dr. Hill want on to say: TT "Tha first commandment, Thou ahalt - have no other gods before me,'- meant something to the Israelites encamped In Stubborn Coughs and Colds CURED BY FOLEY'S HONEY AND TAR Obstinate, racking Coughs that make your head ache, your throat and lungs sore and Inflamed, that rob you of sleep until your system becomes to run down that you are in grave danger of Pneumonia or Consumption , are quickly cured by Foley's Honey and Tars FOLEY'S HONEY AND TAR soothes and heals the inflamed ait pan sages, allays the feverish conditions, top the cough and prevents serious results from a cold. FOLEY'S HONEY AND TAR is the only prominent cough medicine on the market that does not contain op la tea or harmful drugs of any kind and on this account is safest for children. It is unexcelled for Croup and Whoop ing Cough and will quickly cure the racking cough which follows measles nd leaves so many children with weak lungs unless properly treated. Remember the name Foley's SJosiey and Tar and refuse substi tutes that coat you the same as the genuine. Do not take chances with tome unknown preparation. Consumption Thrtattnsd. C. Unger, 211 Maple St . , Champiagn, III., writes: "I was troubled with s hacking cough for a year and I thought I had consumption. I tried a great many remedies and I was under the care of physicians for several months. I used one bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar; it cured me, and I have not been trou bled since."

Indeed, to the people of Israel all down through their career In Canaan. Again and again they rrlapeed Into the heathen worship of the nations round about them. Solo moit had almost as many klnda of heathen worship In his household ss he had wives. a selection of Ideas. Hui how does thla apply to us? Havs we .a oollectloo of gods from which to aelectf Not exactly. But In these dsys there is a collection of ideas- or con ceptions of Uod. and from ' theae we muat select. Some, following the lead ership of Matthew Arnold, speak of Ood as a power that makes for righteous ness; others say Ood Is a principle, and our great task Is to get into harmony with It; others define Ood as lsw. ths spirit of life, the over soul. From this collection of Ideaa we are to make a selection. "Three things characterise a true conception of Ood: First He Is a per son not a principal, not a formula, not a blind force. He la not all things; he Is everywhere, but not everywbat. At the threshold of ths commandments we are not ushered Into the presence of laws, but of a law-giver I am the Lord which brought thee out of tha land of Kgypt.' Second Ood has moral attrlbutea. Even an agnostlo must ad mit that It la Inconceivable to think of Htm as cruel or unjust Ws respond at once to the stately definition of ths old catechism. 'Ood is a spirit infinite, eter nsl, and unchangeable in being, wisdom, power, holiness. Justice, goodness and truth.' Third Ood is self-revealing, sines he has made us In his own image, hss given ua powers to be used accord ing to His, will, and will hold us Re sponsible for their right use. He must show an Interest In us; hs must show us how to live. slsottstr la Accord Vtth eases. "He must maks Hla will known. Has He made himaalf known? Listen: 'And Ood apoke all these words, saying.' Lis ten sgain: 'Ood. who st sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in (Imes paat unto the fathers by tha prophets both in these lsst daya apoken unto ua by His Son.' - "My friends, Ood commsndS you and ms ss truly ss he did the children of Israel to select a Ood, and turning from all false -conceptions of Him to sslect that winch la In accord with reason and revelation. Remember that tha true Ood la a parson; -that he la righteous In all hla waya and holy In all hla works; and that He hath made himself known in the person of Jesus Christ, his son. our Savior." The speaker then drew attention to the new atheism, which lesds msn to leave the divine out of consideration, to buy and sell aa if there were no Ood looking on; to plan campalgna as If no unseen wstcher might Interfere and bring their schemes to confusion. He quoted from the writings of the author of "The Oolden Legend." and Mr. Zang- wlll. dwelling especially on the latters dreary line. "And man la left alone with man." Mention was made of Tolstoi s recent message in which, in explaining the unrest sod confusion of the nations. the Kusslan sage says, "Your real dte- eaaa la that you have lost Ood." Dr. Hill closed by saying: Tolstoi's slew Watch Word. "Tolstoi adds a word which ought to catch the ear even of thla impatient money-getting, pleasure-loving west: Bethink you, bethink you. And that is exsctly what we are not doing. 'We do not think men are atheists be cause they do not think. Men plunge into sin because thev do not think. Men give themselves up to pleasure with out restraint because they do not think. Think, my friend, for what reaaon you have been placed In thla world. Think how desolate life would be If you could really drive Ood out of It. Think of tha day Juat ahead, where on life's farthest verge you will lift ths foot for another step, and no visible piece will be there on which t stand. And would you know God knd serve Him? And are you wondei.ng where He may be found? 'Philip salth unto Him, Lord, ahow ua the Father and It aulBceth us. Jesus salth" unto him: Have I been so long time with you and yet thou hast not known mr Philip? He that hath seen me, hath seen the Father. " WOMAN'S NATURAL RIGHTS. Sr. George O. Crass sr Says Mature Mas neutralised Han's Injustice. "The Natural Rights of Woman" was the theme of Dr. Oeorge C. Creaaey a sermon at ths Unitarian church yeatar day morning. "From the point of view of ease and luxurious comfort, woman occupies the extreme of human life," aald he. Homettmes her lot represents the height f human felicity; again it la all that Is most burdensome and pitiable." He said that in our country of indi vidualism all are Jealous of what they call their natural rights, and that wo man la no exception to tha rule. Bur frags was a political right, dependent upon the exigencies and ends and con ditions of civic life. Ha believed It to be mainly a question of sentiment, and that when a majority of women Of all classes desired the privilege, the right of suffrage would be granted them. The strength of woman lay not In politics, but In the home. "Judged by common, external stand ards, women are better than, men," he continued; "yet when the momentum of evil purposes overcomes the natural barriers of her sensitive, refined and self-sacrificing nature. It la not strange that It sweeps on to the extremes ot reckless Iniquity. "It is s common criticism of conven tional life that In all things pertaining to chastity, purity and cleanliness of living, women sre Judged ny a higher standard than men. and thus sustsln the weight of social injustice. Ths state ment Is true snd the Inference Is true. In part; it Is one phase of that lack of equity which seems inevitable in an im perfect and progreaalve world. Would, indeed, that man might be Judged by the same standard a woman, but Ood forbid that woman should ever be Indeed by the same standard aa man. It la the tribute which a traditional Idea of vice pays to virtus; but be it so forever, rsther than we ehould abate a Jot or a tittle from the instinctive es timate which ws plsce upon woman hood." In spcsklng of the small compensa tion received by women for work, he stated that the Indictment is presented against mankind In general that woman has had no opportunity In the past and thus labors under a mortgage, which only time can remove. He said this appeal to heredity Is groundless; that woman Inherited equally with man from the father and mother. Nature neutralised the Injustice which the brutality and unwarranted assumption of man have Inflicted on his co-partner In life during the centuries which have gone. RELIGION IN THE HOME.

The revival must be here w'th the people before the arrival of the preachers. "It la "difficult for a paator to lead boya and girls to Christ." ha said. "If they never hear the sound of worship In their own homes. For instance, think of the thousanda In thla beautiful city of yours who never go to church. For the sake of our houaeholds, churches and a perishing world, we must hsve a true revival or religion, and that means a penitent world and a . quickened church." Br.
