The boss says : "Show me what you
drink and I'll show you what you are."
Lots of people drink our coffee when
they want to drink something real
good. You can start the day with
our M. 8 J. coffee and feel so good
and strong you won't care for any
bracer until tomorrow morning when
you get our good coffee again. Colly,
I think a cup of our 40 cent pure Java
coffee, piping not, with a dash of real
cream or Carnation Cream is about the
smoothest and most savory dope a
fellow can get outside of. We have
a mighty fine Plantation Blend at 25

Hissing like n sullen geyser, the great
puma mother crouches with flaming
eyes. Ridge of her tawny back brush
ed up In rage, tall a-switch, steel sin
ews rigid .beneath soft skin, she glared
at her four cubs In the cage corner.
A fluffy ball of spotted fur sprawled
on unsteady legs across toward her.
Out shot a mighty fore paw; the baby
was hurled suddenly back ninoug his
powering brothers and sisters.
"Nasty temper," 1 remarked to the
keeper. "Ilns she been long like that?"
"Started this forenoon." He shook his
head In anxiety. "I don't like it. I'll
have to separate them, I fear."
The unnatural mother commenced
pacing her prison, sparring viciously
at her offspring iu passing. Three
huddled together In a pitiful heap, but
one stood up and defied her. A Jungle
terror In miniature, his tiny rage was
magnificent. Tensely alert before his

meet each blow, dodging, spitting,

little beggar was too spirited. She

maining cubs peered wonderlngly at
us from an aTljoinlug cage; the mur-
deress paced In silence, but her eyes
were alive with a strange fascinating
light. The tragedy had stirred- the
rows of imprisoned beasts. An uncan
ny howl In a chilling key came from
the leopards; the llou's deep throat

A PRESENT DAY UTOPIA.
Moore island, the Happiest and Fair
est Spot on Earth.
Hugo Parton, writing in the Outing
Magazine, says that the happiest and
most beautiful spot ou earth today is
the island of Moorea.one of the Society
Islands, In the south seas. As a con
trast to strenuous American methods
this description sounds alluring:
"Whenever you are thirsty a word
will send a lithe brown body scram'
bling up a tall palm tree trunk, and In
two minutes n green cocoanut Is ready
for you to quaff the nectar of the Poly
nesian gods. It is worth the trip down
here to cat the native 'vittals,' for you
get at every meal things you never
tasted before, and each seems better
than Its predecessor; to see your din
uer of fresh water shrimps, sharks'
fins and roasted sea urchins. The ba
nanas you eat there are eleven varie
tiesbaked, raw, fried, dried grow a
few rods back in the valley; ditto the
breadfruit, the pineapples aud about
everything else on the board. It's nice
to have your morning coffee grown In
the back yard. Guavas grow In such
profusion they are used as pig food,
grated cocoanut is fed to hens, while
sensitive plaut is considered excellent
fodder for cattle.
"For perfection of the human body
the Tahltian Is unexcelled. If, indeed,
he Is anywhere equaled. They are a
large race, both men and women being
noticeably taller and more fully de
veloped than Anglo-Saxons. I doubt If
any Society Islander ever went through
a whole day In his life without having
a wrec'h of flowers on his head or
blossom behind bis ear. The love of
flowers Is innate with man, woman and
child. They can't pass through a patch
of woods without enierglug with a gar
land. Every gay mood calls for flow
ers on their hats, in their hair, behind
their ears, and their life Is an almost
unbroken sequence of gay moods.
Scarcely a native on the Island of
Moorea can speak a sentence .of Eng
lish, but every one you meet greets you
with a courteous smile nud the wel
coming word 'Ia-ora-na' (Yoraua)."
Poetry Defined.
George P. Morris, the author of
"Woodman, Spare That Tree," was a
general of the New York militia and a
favorite with all who knew him. Mrs.
Sherwood In her reminiscences tells
bow another poet associated the gener
al with a definition of poetry.
Once Fitz-Greene Ilulleck, the author
of "Marco Bozzaris," called upon her In
New-,York In bis old age, and she asked
him to define for her what was poetry,
and what was prose.
lie replied: "When General Morris
commands his brigade nud says, 'Sol
diers, draw your swords!' he talks
prose. When be says 'Soldiers, draw
your wiliiug swords!' be talks poetry."
A Bargain.
"What!" exclaimed the husband.
"You drew your savings from the bank,
went to a broker's office and bought Z.,
X. and Y. stock at 14, when It has been
dropping like a rock?"
"But, my dear," argued the wife. "It
was such a bargain. Why, duriug the
short time I was In the office I saw the
man mark It down to 14 from 45!"

- Confessing Christ.
"Whomsoever therfore shall confess
me before men, him will I confess
also before my Father which Is In
.heaven." Matt. 10:32.
Jesus demands public confession
from all who desire to share the bless
ings of his salvation.
What must one do to be able to as
sure himself that he Is meeting the
Saviour's demand?
Let us, as we have done in the pre
ceding sermons, endeavor to get back
to first principles and primitive prac
tice, by enquiring how the early dis
ciples of Jesus confessed Him, such
men as Peter, Andrew and Paul.
Studying the record as given In the
Gospels we find that:
1. They accepted as true His
vine claims. They believed Him
be the Son of God.
2. They responded to His call
become His disciples. They cast
their lot with Him.
3. They committed themselves
His leading, acknowledged Him
Lord and Master.
If you had asked them when it was
that they definitely became His dis
ciples when the "confessing" began
they would have dated their new life
from their baptism. And It was con
tinued daily, as by the help of God's
Grace they endeavored fb live as He
lived.
And this Is what it means to con
fess Him now. The first step is bap
tism, (I do not see how we can regard
this as anything else but indlspens
ible.) The second Is the adoption of
His way of living and endeavoring to
reproduce it. Committing one's self
to His leading, catching His spirit,
seeking His Kingdom, acknowledging
Him as Lord and Master.
But many people have come to think
that confessing Christ means confess
ing something about themselves. Not
Christ's school, but that they have
attained some degree of spiritual per
fection, or had some notable religious
experience. And that on this account
they are suited for, and entitled to,
membership in a society of people
who represent a spiritual aristocracy,
people better than their neighbors.
If this is what it means then con
fessing Christ is something of the
nature of a boast, like that of the
Pharisee who thanked God that he
was not like other men. It leads to
spiritual pride and excluslveness, not
to that "humbleness of mind" which
the apostle recommends as the temper
befitting the Christian man.
This is to invert and subvert the
plan and purpose of Jesus, many true
souls are repelled from the church
because they do not feel that they
can make any such "profession of re
ligion." The church, as Jesus framed it, was
not a select society. Entrance into,
it Involved no such profession of mor
al or spiritual superiority. It was a
society made up of those who were
"being saved," in whom the process
of saving was going on.
The church Is the school of Christ.
It Is a hospital for sick souls. An ap
plicant for admission to a school con
fesses his ignorance, not his learning.
A man who seeks treatment at a
hospital confesses sickness, not
health. So the candidate for admis
sion to the church professes nothing
about himself except his need of God's
grace. He comes to be healed and
taught.
The early church held her arms
wide open to receive all who had faith
In Jesus and were ready to commit
themselves to Him. All such were
forthwith baptized. Many were weak
and faulty, many fell into sin after
baptism. But the church was their
nursing mother. She exhorted and re
buked and warned, but did not cast
them out, any more than a human
mother casts out her sickly child, or
a school its dull pupils.
This was the nature of the church
as it came from the hands of its di
vine founder. But this has been
changed for millions of people, to
whom the term "church" has come to
mean a little club composed of people
who think alike on some theory of
religion, and are bidding for public
patronage, In competition with several
other little clubs holding other theo
ries. Brethren, what was the mission of
Jesus? He came to save His people
from their sins. His people there
fore all people, for all are His. He
came to destroy .the works of the devil,
to set men free. , He lived for His peo
ple and died for them.
While on earth He spoke to them
words of peace, pardon, hope.' He as
sured them of His good will concern
ing them, and when It was expedient
for them that He should return to the
Father, He left behind as His repre
sentative "The church which is His
body," because in it He dwells and
through it He acts. It Is the exten
sion on earth of the life of Jesus
Christ with us; it Is "the homestead of
God.' the "ark of safety," the school
of Christ.
In the church are all the means of
grace necessary to the deliverance
of a soul from sin and the developing
of Christian character, worship and
confession, prayer and praise, work
and sacrament.
The fort of regeneration, the gift
of the Holy Spirit, the continual
"shewing forth" on the altar of the
death of Christ. There are words of
comfort for those in trouble and
thanksgiving for the hour of joy. In
this atmosphere the soul "grows in
grace," lives and walks with God until
His voice calls him from the church
in Paradise.

into the dramatic field, taking as his
central theme a former train robbery
which occurred there some years
back; he has woven a melodramatic
comedy about it, which has already
proven its worth by seven years of
sucessful existence. Mr. .Raymond
claims that his play is founded on
fact. Whether fact or fiction is really
Immaterial for he has writen a very
interesting story of life, of love, of
mystery, of intrigue and adventure,
amoung the old class of moonshine
mountaineers that inhabit those hills,
dealing with their lives, their habits,
their customes, their social character
istics and peculiarities. The scenes
were painted from actual photographs
of the various localities pictured and
every character is true to life. Dra
matic in all of its scenes and melo
dramatic in many, it never transcends
the bounds of probability and no one
need stretch the imagination to be
convinced of its reality. So true to
nature is it in every scene that it
seems to be a bit o life actually trans
planted from its original setting to
the stage. Reserved seats for sale at

TjlD 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 8 pages each containing 6 columns. To
get the comparative size of the COURIER you
must, add pages which is lacking only a gage
and a half of being just double the size of the
ordinary 8-page weekly.
Only the loyal support that the COURIER
ha3 enjoyed throughout the County enables it to
furnish such a large paper. If you are a reader of the paper call your neighbor's
attention to the fact that Clackamas County has never before had so much in the
way of a County Paper.
Remember the MAGAZINE SECTION THE COMIC SUPPLEMENT. This
alone is worth the price of the COURIER.
Send for sample copies of the COURIER give us the name of your friend
who should read the COURIER, and we will send samples.
