My boss believes that quality is of

to sell the best, but when you get any

THE CHURCH
LOYALTY FIRST PRINCIPLE
THE CHURCH, ITS NATURE AND
PURPOSE.
"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." For sale by Huntley

t
jyp you ever stop to compare the COURIER
with other County papers? Consider a
minute. 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.
Send for sample copies of the COURIER give us the name of your friend
who should read the COURIER, and we will send samples.
