(To the Edi tor of the Observer) It was not my intention to engage in a controversy over the word 'TMiptizo.'' I merely en deavored to point out, that the un qualified assertion that this word nev er means other than immersion, is not correct. I stand by my former letter, which Mr. Ford 'has not upset though he quotes extensively to prove some thing -which I never disputed. I still maintain that there are instances in the Bible where "baptizo implies pouring, and that this word is used in a general technical sense to include all ceremonial lustrations whether by immersion, pouring or sprinkling. As to early Christian testimony, outside of scripture, I mentioned "The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles," which is the earliest of all Christian manuscripts extant. Its date being generally assigned to A. D. 120. This gives pouring as a permissible mode of baptism, if immersion is not prac ticable. We do not know its author, but he sets down what is the teaching Wj-Jm The Supreme Dessert Mint Flavor For Lamb and All Cold Meats A flavor made from mint leaves, and sealed in a separate vial.

As the apostolic tradition was still fresh at that date, it is not likely he would try to foist something which had not apostolic authority. I notice that my Baptist brethren try to moot his testi mony by the method known in court as abusing the opposing counsel. They discredit the writer and his work. As to infant baptism, I still main tain that it was practised from the very beginning when whole house holds were baptized. It is most, like ly that if I thought of baptism as Bro. Ford probably does, I would not see anj necessity for children to be baptized. 'But according to the teach ing I have received, baptism as a life giving sacrament, is as necessary to the child as to the adult. I do not wish to discuss the theological aspect of this sacrament in a newspaper. 1 will only say that if I had not been baptized as an infant and thus made "a member of Christ, the child of God and an inheritor of the kingdom of heaven," I would not be where I am today, but long ago have been sub merged in the mire of sensuality and vice. I have read tho objections of those opposed to infant baptism and they are all to my mind excessively super ficial or else their view of baptism is a very limited one. As to how the requirements or raitn and repentance are fulfilled in the case of infants, it would tako too long to show. But they are fulfilled and that in accordance with recognized principles governing a contract or covenant with minors. And let me add, that if this can not be done for infants then there can be no vicarious atonement for adults. The principle which justifies the latter being .ef fectual for an adult, justifies the vicarious pledge of repentance and faith for an infant in baptism. I am off to the east. This is my last word. UPTON II. GIBBS. mond, Ky. When troubled with in digestion or constipation give them a trial. Adv. Picked Up By The Stroller I strolled into Arch Bacon's and bought a cigar and the boys told me he had all his front teeth pulled out. I asked him about it and ho didn't answer me. Maybe he thought it was none of my business. Come to think about it, I believo ho was right at that. 1 strolled into the Observer office and asked the petite bookkeeper if tho "wild Animal Editor" was in. She looked at Mr. Loiter and he said: "Speak up, tell the gentleman that you are she." "I absolutely refuse to be the wild Animal . Editor," she said. "You be her yourself, you're wilder than I am." And she grabbed a ledger .as if to throw it at him or me. "I'm wild enough at time to be put in tho cage with the lions," he said. "Anyway I'm tho friend of tho boys and girls, and I'm thinking seriously of going to the circus Tuesday after noon with tho kids." "No, you're not," said the aforesaid petite bookkeeper. "I'm the wildest and I'm going to be the wild Animal Editor and take Tuesday afternoon off myself and take tho kids to the circus and buy 'em pink lemonade and pea nuts, see the elephants and sich. You can stay hero and get out the paper, and receive the kicks, and answer the 'phono and take in cordwood for subscriptions." So the momentous Question was fin ally settled. As I strolled out, the wild Animal Editor looked very peaceful behind the bars of hor cage, and she smiled at me and said: "Maybe, if you'll buy the peanuts and lemonade and pay for your own ticket, you can go along." Sour Stomach. This is a mild form of indigestion. It Is usually brought on by eating too rapidly or too much, or of food not suited to your digestive organs. If you will eat slowly, masticate your food thoroughly, eat but littlo meat and none at all for supper, you will more than likely avoid the sour stom ach without taking any medicine whatever. When you have sour stomach take one of Chamberlain' Tablets to aid digestion. Adv. Has a Good Opinion of Chamber lain's Tablets. "Chamberlain's Tablets are a won der.
