IT'S "23" FOR
The SECONDS
Pa r.ays, "a good cook, a good
wife and a good job will make a
good home anywhere." Lots of
men who are used to getting but
one dollar's worth of food for a
five dollar bill down town, expect
their wives to get five dollars'
worth of groceries for a one
dollar bill and save the change
toward buying their cigars.
There is no place in the town
where you can make your
money go any farther in buying
groceries of first quality than this
store. The boss never buys
what is called the "second cut"
of anything. If any article is
shipped to us and upon examina
tion it fails to stand the most
searching test, the boss comes up
with the marking pot and writes
"23" on the package and back it
goes to the shipper.

Fine Work and Good
Dance.
Willamette Falls Camp No. 148,
Woodmen of the World held its third

Armory Hall, at which over two hun
dred people enjoyed the hospitality
of the members of the camp.
The program was carried out fully
as planned, a first-class orchestra
from Portland furnished the music
for the dancing and at 9:30 the Prize
Drill Team of the Pacific Coast, from
Portland Camp No. 107, under Captain
A. M. Brown, put on their work. The
military training of this drill team is
superb and the members went through
the many intricacies of military man
euvering without a blur, or mismove.
The boys were dressed in dark blue
uniforms, and used the W. O. W. axe
in the drill. One unique movement
being the formation of the letters "W.
O. W" with their axes at a signal
from Captain Brown, whose work all
through the drill as well as that of
the officers and privates is to be most
highly commended.
The team was made up of the fol
lowing gentlemen:
Captain, A. M. Brown; 1st lieuten
ant, J. Leman: 2d Lieutenant, A. H.
Harms; 1st. Sargt, L. E. Spinner;

No. 107, defeated the Oregon City,
Willamette Falls Camp, W. O. W. drill
team, as well as others at the Lewis
and Clark exposition and have since
Ireld a high place of honor throughout
the Pacific Coast in such work. Cap
tain Brown and each member of the
company were royally received by the
members of Willamette Falls Camp
at the hall, and following the drill
were given full swing in the armory
hall. Several of the visiting gentle
men were accompanied by their ladies,
filling the special car that was engag
ed from Portland.
The third annual was a most flat
tering success in every detail and re
flects great credit upon the commit
tee having all arrangements in charge,
which committee was composed of the
following gentlemen: W. Croner,
Claud Curtis, D. E. Frost, James Nlcn

Toe Kind You Hate Always Bought

BiffnAturt of
SI
A CURE OF LEPROSY.
(Boston Journal.)
After characterizing Mrs. Mary
Baker Eddy as a woman who spread
infamous stories of cures by Christian
Science healing which had never been
accomplished, at the State House be
fore the committee on public health,
and challenging Alfred Farlow, the
church's publicity agent, to produce
the name of a leper he had claimed
had been healed by Christian treat
ment. Attorney F. W. Peabody, of
the opposition, was nonplussed at the
afternoon session, when following a
second dare, much to his discomfort,
Mr. Farlow arose and named the cur
ed party as Dr. G. W. Barrett, a phy
sician of St. Louis, Mo.
Following the hearing Mr. Farlow
telegraphed to St. Louis and received
a prompt response. Both telegrams
follow:
"George W. Barrett, 2240 A South
Grand Avenue, St. Louis, Mo. Do you
still claim that you have been healed
of leprosy by Christian Science? Give
date of healing. Wire Immediately.
"ALFRED FARLOW."
"St. Louis, Mo., March 3, 1908
Farlow, Berkeley Building, Boston:
Healing took place 25th day of Sep
tember, 1891. You are correct in
your inquiry. Will find full account
In Sentinel, January 11, 1900.
G. W. BARRETT."
The whole affair centered on three
bills dealing with Christian Science,
namely House Bill 910, which provides
that Christian Scientists need not be
registered or examined, provided they
receive no pay for their services as
healers; House Bill 10C5, requiring
parents and guardians to furnish med
ical attendance to sick children in
their care, and House Bill 1000, on
certifying causes of death by physic
ians not regular attendants previous
ly. "If Mrs. Eddy or her secretary, Al
fred Farlow, or any other believer in
the Christian Science faith will show
me one specific Instance of an or
ganic disease cured by their treat
ment I will withdraw my bill and join
them tomorrow," thundered Mr. Pea
body, and, unchallenged, he continued
on bitterly arraigning Christian Sci
ence methods.
It was near the end of the afternoon
session, following a masterful plea
of ex-Governor John L. Bates in be
half of the healers, that Mr. Peabody
took up his rebuttal and once more
hurled a challenge at Mr. Farlow to
produce the name of the cured leper.
"We can tell it," Interrupted Mr.
Bates, and at his request Mr. Farlow
rose and read the name of Dr. George
W. Barrett, of St. Louis, Mo.
Death was on His Heels.
Jesse P. Morris, of Skippers, Va.,
had a close call in the spring of 190G.
He says: "An attack of pneumonia
left me so weak and with such a fear
ful cough that my friends declared
consumption had me, and death was
on my heels. Then I was persuaded
to try Dr. King's New Discovery. It
helped me immediately, and after tak
ing two and a half bottles I was a
well man again. I found out that New
Discovery is the best remedy for
coughs and lung disease in nil the
world." Sold under guarantee at

THE FIRST
PRINCIPLES
REV. T. F. BOWEN'S NINTH SER
MON OF SUNDAY EVENING
COURSE.
God's Grace Through 8acraments.
The ninth sermon by Rev. T. F.
Bowen at St. Paul's Episcopal Church
Sunday, on First Principles, was full
of good thought, and should have
reached the ears of half of the resi
dents of the city. Rev. Bowen said
in part:
' "I am the living bread which came
down from heaven. If any man eat
of this bread he shall live forever and
the bread that I will give is my flesh
which I will give for the life of the
world." John G:51. .
We have seen in former sermons
that the purpose of Christianity is not
merely to deliver men from the pen
alty of sin, but to reproduce in them
the character of Jesus Christ. To
make them "new creatures."
The power by which men can re
sist sin, beat back temptation, over
come their vices and develop Chris
tian character is the grace of God.
How does God convey His grace to
souls? The answer of the historic
Church, in all its branches, is, that
the Grace of God comes through sac
raments. It has pleased the Lord Jesus in
carrying on His saving work, to make
use of material agencies by which
to convey great spiritual blessings.
He takes common material things and
Incorporates them with Himself. He
assumes and assimilates them until
the material has become spiritual, the
earthly made heavenly.
This is the great truth of the In
carnation, that God, in the person of
Jesus assumed and appropriated hu
man flesh and made it a part of the
God head.
The church and the sacraments are
a continuation and extension of the
Incarnation. Through these Jesus
Christ is ever with us until the end
of the world.
When He was on earth He spoke the
word of pardon and blessing to souls,
they heard His voice and felt His
touch, and knew that they were bless
ed. Do not souls need the same as
surance now? The Holy Spirit has
taught us that the work of Christ
still goes on through His church.
In Baptism the soul is made a mem
ber of His spiritual Body. In the Sac
rament of the Altar, tho common
things of bread and wine are taken
by Christ Jesus, and Incorporated
with Himself, and given back with
tho words "This Is my body, this
is my blood."
The Sacraments are God's pledges
to His people. I want to be iiViie a
child of God and to know that I am
such. How shall I be assured? Must
I trust to my own feelings? How can
I when my feelings may be influenced
by such things as weather, diet,
health, disposition, surroundings?
I But here are the words and provi
sions and assurances of the Saviour,
tho Son of God. I can trust these.
He is "the same yea. jmay today and
forever." "Heaven and earth shall
pass away, but His words shall not
i pass away."
! But some one may ask, "Is not
C'hristanity a spiritual religion? Why
do we need sacraments? Cannot a
soul go directly to Jesus and be bless
ed? Doubtless He is not bound by
His own provisions. But in provid
ing means by which to bless souls He
would certainly provide the best, and
in providing the Sacraments He or
dained a state of things which corres-
; ponds with the compound nature of
i man. Men have spiritual natures, but
they are not all spirit, they have ma
I terial bodies and as long as soul and
j body are together the soul is reached
inrougn me nouy, inrougn ttie eye
and ear and brain. A religion entire
ly spiritual would bo of little use to

souls united to a material body.
Christianity is a religion of real
ities. 'It lias no eiiU'W n-rms or
meaningless ceremonies. The Sacra
ments being real blessings, what the
waters of Jordan were to Naaman's
leprosy and the hem of Christ's gar
ment to the afflicted woman in Galilee
that, and infinitely more, are the Sac
raments to the believing soul health
and food and everlasting life.
The Sacraments are mysteries, but
this forms no valid objection to them.
The whole religion of Jesus is a
mystery. The Incarnation, Resurrec
tion, The New Birth. These are mi
pornatural. Empty Christianity of its
supernatural elements and you empty
it of its power. Remove the mystery
of the Incarnation, and Its counterpart
the sacraments and what is left is
not worth saving.
When Jesus was about to heal a
blind man one day, He said to him:
"Believest thou that I am able to do
this?" and the blind man replied,
"Yea, Lord, I believe," and Immedi
ately his sight was restored. So at
every baptism and- Holy Communion,
and at every means of grace, Jesus
asks: "Believest thou?" and the soul
that can reply "Yea, Lord I believe,"
receives the blessing, and the unbe
lieving go empty away.
