WILL DEDICATE SOON
New Christian Church Rapidly Ap
proaching Completion A Fine
House of Worship.
The new Christian church is rapid
ly approaching completion. Rev. A.
J. Whiddon, the pastor, is a hustler,
working alongside the carpenters
every day in an effort to hasten the
completion and aid in the work of
the church. It is expected that the
church will be almost if not quite
complete by the last of the week,
and it is hoped to dedicate it Sunday,
March 30, though this is as yet un
certain. The church will have a seating ca
pacity of about 200 people and will
have a Sunday school room which
can be thrown with the main room
when necessary by folding doors.
The building will cost about $1,200
In cash, most of the labor having
been donated by members of he con
gregation. . The entire value of the
edifice will be not far from $2,000.
Tliat $500 Proof Text.
Three cheers for the Nazarene pas
tor. It is refreshing to see a person
with the courage of his convictions.
Here is the $500 proof text: "No
man can come unto me except the
Father which hath sent me draw
him; and I will raise him up at the
last day. It is written in the proph
ets, and they shall be all taught of
God. Every man, therefore, that
hath heard and hath learned of the
Father, cometh unto me." There it
is. I will raise him up and teach
him, and when be hath heard and
learned he will come to Christ. This
text is given only by John. One can
imagine, as Christ breathed this won
derful message into the air, that his
fathomless eyes held John's eyes for
an instant while the truth went
home. Yes, John understood. Yes,
John would write it in a book with
an "iron pen and lead In the rock
forever." What a wonderful power
of suggestion is here expressed. This
text stands out like Mi. Shasta,
alone, unique and unapproachable.
Though the law and the prophets
failed to convince sinners and
though such a spectacular perform
ance as one rising from the dead
would fail to do so, still the good
ness of God will lead them to repent
ance, for he fashioneth all our hearts
alike.
The unjust let him be unjust still,
and the holy let him be holy still,
and the figure of the fallen tree
teach ua that death will not over
come us. Because Christ overcame,
does not exempt us from overcom
ing. Paul exhorted Timothy not to
preach old wives' fables, but to
preach that God is the Saviour of all
men, and then his hearers would be
converted. We all know the old
wives' fable is "The bogie man'U get
you if you don't watch out." There
is no bogie man. How do I know?
By faith. MRS. E. E. COOK,
Talent, Ore.
TABLOID PHILOSOPHY.
Parliament Members Has List
Don'ts to Offer Public.
of
London, March 24. Will Crooks,
the sturdy labor member of parlia
ment, whose honesty and strenuous
ness have won him respect from the
highest and lowest classes in the
country, has been giving some sound
advice in tabloid form to an audi
ence at Whitfield's Tabernacle. Here
are some of his best Bayings:
Don't argue when you are tired;
you can't do it.
Don't take the workshop home
with you.
Don't talk trouble before the chil
dren.
I Don't think you can't be "done;"
.you can.
j Don't think you are worse than
other people, and don't think you're
better; you are not.
J Don't think you have a constant
Job; the man In the cemetery has
. that.
P Don't talk of being roaster in your
! own house. You may be while you
are there, but you have to go out.
Don't get angry; no one cares if
you do.

"FATHER" FLY NX HONORED.
Ninty-Sixth Hirthdny Celebrated Uy
Large Party of Friends.
Portland, March 25. "Father"
John Flynn, dean of Portland's
Methodist Episcopal clergymen, was
honored yesterday when his 96th
birthday was celebrated by 30 min
isters of the denomination and their
wives, who went to St. Johns for
their regular association meeting in
stead of holding it at the First
Methodist Episcopal church.
The venerable preacher went with
the party, enjoying the ride in a trol
ley car and showing no signs of fa- T
tigue. A month ago "Father" Flynn j
fell down his cellar stairs, and
though he was ill for a while, he
fully recovered. Yesterday he made
an address at the business meeting.
The following officers were elected j t
at the meeting: President, Rev. B.
J. Larsen; vice-president, Rev. J. K.
Hawkins; secretary-treasurer, Rev.
C. F. HopklnB. The women of the
church served a luncheon.
QUEER SPORT IN CHINA.
Dropp'ng a Pheasant With a Twenty-
four Pound Gun.
Foreign sportsmen In China always
observ with curious interest the ma
neuver of native hunters.
Au English sportsman tells of an
incident he witnessed at the well
known Shaba, or lower barrier, of
Nudoo creek. In north China. A native
shooter hud bis gingal with him a
njoxt uucanny looking weapon. That
there might be no question us to its j
length, it was placed upright alongside j
the Itrlton. It exceeded bis height by
two feet two inches, making the piece
of ordnance over eight feet In length.
Englishmen sometimes complain of the ;
weight of their own guns six and a j
hulf to seven and a half pounds. So '
it Is astonishing to behold a Chinese
bunter currying a twenty-four pound
gun all day loug.
This particular native was accom
panied by a small, odd looking animal,
which the foreigner wns assured was
a dog. Observation of the hunter and
dog nt work made a deep Impression
upon the stranger.
A lien pheasant happened to drop
Into a furrowed field at feeding time.
The native took her bearings, crept up
ns closely us he safely could, put down
his gun on a bit of higher ground, and
kept it traini'd on the bird. Meantime
the dog lay down across the barrel of
the gun, thus serving ns n screen for
his master. When the proper moment
hud arrived, the mnn fired, the bird
was killed upon the ground, and the
dog remained on the barrel until his
master took up the gun to reload.

La Fontuine, whose fables are the

book. Fortunately, the king knew La
Fontaine, his fables and his foibles and
gave him a thousand pistoles (about
