keep the shelves and boxes filled up,
sweep out, clean the windows, run er
rands, deliver packages in the neighbor

my five per all right, all right.
Honest, I think I'm going to like my

around the store; the boss looks good
to me and I've been out of a job so long

corns. Only forty minutes for lunch.

THIRD SERMON
By Rev. T. F. Bowen, on "Re
pent and Be Baptised."
GIVEN SUNDAY EVENING AT ST.
PAUL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
Baptism for The Remission of Sins."
"Arise and be baptized, and wash
away thy sins." Acts 22.
How does God convey to repentent
souls the gift of pardon and grace?
I need not take time to show our need
of these blessings. Our own hearts
tell us that. The burden of sin is
upon -us. People outside bible lands
feel it, as well as those who have the"
light of revelation. This is the start
ing point of all religions the con
sciouness of guilt and longing for de
liverance. Neither need I show that
we can be delivered from sin only by
the grace of God. We all believe that
"There is none other name under
heaven given among men whereby we
must be saved" but that of Jesus.
The question is "How does God convey
this grace to penitent souls? There
are two answers, coming from Christ
ians holding two different conceptions
of Christianity known as the sacra
mental and the non-sacramental . The
former attaches a great deal of im
portance to the sacraments, giving
them first place as means of grace.
The other attaches little or no import
ance to them, and gives the first place
to preaching and similar agencies.
Ask a Christian worker representing
any body of Christians holding the
non-sacramental view of Christianity
when a soul is broughtinto a state of
salvation and he will reply, If I mis
take not, it is when, under influence
of a sermon or hymn or prayer or
talk, it experiences conscious conver
sion. Ask a Churchman holding the
sacramental view the same qestion,
and he will answer without hesita
tion, "at its baptism." What spiritual
warrant has he for so saying?
We notice first that In the new
testament Baptism and Salvation are
so connected as to represent them
as two parts of one transaction. The
one, Baptism, is the outward and visi
ble sign; the other, Salvation, is the
Inward and spiritual grace. The soul
then and there becomes a member of
Christ spiritual society a citizen of
His Kingdom, entitled to Us benefits
just as a forelg'isr becomes by nat
uralization an American citizen en
titled to all the privileges of citizen
ship. Let us study a few passages of
scripture showing this. Here the
preacher considered a number of
scripture texts, among them the fol
lowing: Acts 2:38,
It was on the day of Pentacost.
Peter was preaching the first Christ
Ian sermon. He charged his hearers
with having with wicked hands cruci
fied the Redeemer. "When they heard
this they were pricked to the heart,
and said unto Peter and the rest of ;
the Apostles, Men and brethren, what i
shall we do? Then Peter said unto I
them, "Repent and be baptized every i
one of you In the name of Jesus Christ '
for the remission of sins, and ye shall i
receive the gift of the Holy GhoBt." I
Acts 22:16. Saul of Tarsus while I
on his way to Damascus to persecute '.
the Church was converted by a super-1
natural event. The risen Jesus called !
to him, saying, "Saul, Saul, why perse-1
cutest thou Me?" Saul became ai
Christian believer from that moment. I
Three days later Ananias, one of the!
brethren, went to him to restore him
to sight. After making known his '
mission he said to him, "And now why
tarriest thou? Arise and be baptized
and wash away thy sins." Here we
see that though supernaturally con-
verted It was still necessary for Saul
to be baptized for the remission of
sins. I
In the New Testament it is taken '
for granted that those who have been
baptized were at their baptism regen
erated and brought into a shade of
salvation.
Even when they fell into sin, as
many of them did, they were regarded
as Christians who had received the
grace of God. They are warned and
exhorted not to receive that grace in
vain. To repent and to live worthy of
their profession, but never to become
Christians. In the fact that they are
regenerate the Apostle finds the most
powerful motive to personal holiness.
"What? Know ye not that ye are the
temples of the Holy Ghost. Ye are not
your own. for ye are bought with a
price, therefore glorify God In your
body and in your spirit which are
God's."
In no case do we find nubaptized
persons addressed as regenerate, but
whenever men enquire the way to par
don the answer is the some, "Repent
and be baptized."
Neighborhood Favorite.
Mrs. E. D.i Charles, of Harbor,
Maine, speaking of Electric Bitters,
says: "It is a neighborhood favorite
hero with us." It deserves to be a
favorite everywhere. It gives quick
relief in dyspepsia, liver complaint,
kidney derangement, malnutrition,
nervousness, weakness and general
debility. Its action on the blood, as
a thorough purifier makes it espe
cially useful as a spring medicine.

Young People to Give Entertainment.
The young people of the Zlon Lu
theran Church are planning to give an
entertainment at Willamette hall on
Thursday evening, February 27. The
program will consist of dialogues,
songs and instrumental music, which
will be In the German language. This
is the first entertainment of this
character that has been given by
this church and there Is no doubt but
that Willamette hall will be well filled
on this occasion.

Louis Nobel, a young man employed
by the Home Telephone Company in
this city, last Thursday learned some
thing about the make-up of a dynamite
cap. He was endeavoring to find out
how the thing was made when it ex
ploded, tearing away the first joints
of the thumb and the two first fingers
of the left hand. Dr. E. A. Sommer
dressed the wound, and the young
man is compelled, through his care
less, Inquisitive action, to go through
life light-fingered.

ID you ever stop to compare the COURIER
with other County papers? Consider a
minute. There are 12 pages each page contain
ing 7 colums. This makes a column more on
each page than you usually get in a county weekly
or 12 columns, which !is equal to two extra pages
when comparing with a six column paper. Then
the extra length gives half a page extra. So,
summing up, the County Weekly as a rule gives
you Q pages each containing 6 columns. To
get the comparative size of the COURIER you
must add 64 pages which is lacking only a page
and a half of being just double the size of the
ordinary 8-page weekly.
