"I speak concerning Christ and the church." Ephesians 5:32. Among the various Institutions in the world today I doubt, if there is another so little understood as the Church. In the early days of Christianity, this was not so. People knew what the Church was and where to find it, Today large numbers in Christian lands neither know nor care. The multiplicity of churches has led to uncertainty, and uncertainty to indifference until large numbers of men and women possessing more or less Christian character have assumed an atttitude of stolid indifference to ward the "Churches." They have come to look upon joining the church as they do on joining a club, as a matter of taste, with no obligation to do bo beyond their own wishes. In new testament times no one claimed to be a Christian who did not belong to the church. It could hard ly be otherwise when we consider the nature and purpose of, the society founded by Jesus Christ. There is a great truth In the Bible known as the Church truth. Namely, that It has ever been God's will and pleasure to save men and give them grace not only by working in their personal religion but also by bring ing them into a spiritual society or church. Admission to the society has always been by an ordinance provid ed by God. He has always revealed His will to this society, and through it to the world. The members of the society have always been regarded as God's people. And this in spite of the fact, that the membership of the so ciety has always been of a mixed character, made up of bad and good. Look, for instance, at the Church during the earthly life of the Lord Jesus. Those who made up its mem bership were not ail that might have been. Peter denied Him. Thomas doubted the resurrection, Judas betrayed Him. All the Apostles were carried away on one -occasion with ambition as to which of them should be greatest. Later on, when the Church was founded In the great cities of the Ro man empire, Corinth, Ephesus, Phil lip!, we find the same mixture of good and bad. The Apostles address the church members as "Saints," but find It necessary to reprove and exhort and threaten them for their misdeeds. Jesus, himself, said His Kingdom would be like a field having good wheat and tares growing together. And this mixed character of the Church was necessarily so, because the church was Intended to be a school The church was designed to provide a society made up of those who had so far caught the spirit of Jesus and were so far in sympathy with His alms that He could safely leave His work in their bands. They were by no means perfect people, as" we have seen, but one thing characterized them all; they to some extent grasp ed His idea of a kingdom of righte ousness to the building up of which they were willing to devote their lives. They received and acepted from Jesus the commission to carry the Gospel to every creature. The Church is therefore of necessity a missionary society. This being the nature and purpose of the Church, it follows that every believer in Jesus ought to be loyal to it, ought to love it and labor for it. And certainly no one is at liberty to leave it. No matter if it is impure, though the tares are thick among the wheat. Still as. long as God loves it every Christian man and woman should love- it. As long as God has not left it, men and women should not, unless they wish to appear wiser and holier than God. In His last great prayer for His disciples, Jesus prayed that they all might be one, that the world might believe on Him. The greatest wrong in Christendom, the greatest hindrance to the work of Christ is a divided Christianity. "Christ loved the church and gave Mmsolf for it. That He might pre sent it to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing but that it should be holy and without blemish." Ephesians 5:25-7. Prof. H. A. Howell, of Havana, Cuba, Recommends Chamberlains Cough Remedy, As long ago as I can remember my mother was a faithful user and friend of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, but never in my life have I realized its true value until now," writes Prof. H. A. Howell, of Howell's American School, Havana, Cuba. "On the night of February 3d our baby was taken sick with a very severe cold, the next day was worse and the following night his condition was desperate. He could not lie down and it was necessary to have him in the arms every moment. I did not think he would live until morning. At last I thought of my mother's remedy, Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which we gave, and It afforded prompt relief, and now, three days later, he has fully recov ered. Under the circumstances I would not hesitate a moment in say ing that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and that only, saved the life of our dear little boy."

In doing so they mistook the very nature and purpose of the church. The church is not intended only for those who come respectably dressed in robes of righteousness, but also for those who come in rags. The church is a divine society with a message and a miston to men. It is the extension on earth of the life and work of Jesus. It is furnished with all the means of grace necessary to insure the soul's complete deliverance from sin and growth in goodness, "Till Christ is formed within."

There are 13 pages each page contain" ing 7 colunvs. This makes a column more on each page than you usually get in a county weekly or 1 2 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 6y pages which is lacking only a page and a half of being just double the size of the ordinary 8-page weekly. Only the loyal support that the COURIER has 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.
