' Jeaua Christ and Paul were revolu- . tlonlsta. mma Goldman 'was a socialist when he started, though stie may now be an anarchist, but she is not so bad as painted. -The world is as bad today as in the tttn' of Jesus Christ, and the same problems are to be met only In a differ ent guise. Religion tnnst'be opposed to the state; It must be- revolutionary. .These were - some of the thoughts evolved at the meeting of the Baptist ministers yesterday which aroused a warm dlseusr Ion. . Rev. E. A. Smith or Arleta-read the paper on "The New Testament's - Relation to the Social Movement of History." The paper brought out mucn ainerenee or opinion NEGLECTED COLDS VRY DANGEROUS : Jastructlve lecture mt X others' Con - clan. Prescription CHven. At the recent . mothers' convention the meeting was addressed by a physl flan of national renntatinn. The nrln clpaj topicof his lecture was the neces sity of prompt .attention to common colds. . He staled that three fourths of the dread diseases-of the present day have their orlcln la colds. A prescription i Is : given that Is said to be tne most enecuve Known to science for the quick; cure of coughs and colds frequently completely curing the severest cold in a day's time. This is the prescription:; Two ounces of alycerlne. one nair ounce concentrated -ptn rompound, half pint of Ilrst class , whlfkey; these to be mixed and used In dowis of a tea spoonful to a table sponnful every four hours, shaking the bottle well each time.

The t'onrentrated pine is a pine prod uct refined for medical use and comes mlr In half ounce bottles, each . en closed in a tin crw top case which Is air t'Eht. I sure that It is labeled X"o?i entrated." there are othnr pine rrratlons which are to be avoided. I and the time was extendea ty motion to accommodate those who wished to state these differences. Mr. Smith brought out several Inter esting points, hinging his paper on the historical fact that every social move ment has been actuated by the teach ings of the new testament; that every revolutionary movement has been ac tuated by religious principles. He called Christ and Paul revolutionists, and Mr. Scherstrom objected that they were not revolutionary or devllutionary, but evo lutionary. Mr. Smith held that their ainerenee or opinion on trie matter was merely a matter of definition of terms. Christ as a Beformer. The paper also contended that Christ's socialistic teachings had merely to do with man's relation to man and God and Degan neyona tne temporary social con ditions; that Christ did not In any way condemn or try to remedy the immedi ate social evils class distinction, Ro man imperialism, women a degraded po sition, or the tax question, because Ilia thoughts were beyond these temporary junii, uim no aisregaraea tnese ana tried to bring about the remedy within the heart of man. Mr.. Scherstrom sai.l that Christ and Paul both treated of the immediate conditions, but that Paul had enough faith In the spirit of the gospel to believe that the future would remedy these evils, although they could not be exterminated then. Again Mr. Smith contended that re ligion is revolutionary and must be op posed to the state; that it could not unite In harmony with the state, and must always demand a change; that the local ministers must always be opposed td the city council and must constantly de mand readjustment Mr. Scherstrom ob jected that the council seldom enough deserves praise but that when it does a pat on the back should be given them just as well as they should oe opposed when In the wrong. . . . Mr. Lapham also objected to placing the social questions as secondary In Christ's teachings and said they were preeminent. He held that today's con ditions are not far removed from those of that day; that though we have no chattel slaves we have the wage slaves of today,- who may be even worse off; thst the power of the sword has given way to the power i of avarice which is Just as cruel; and that the problems of today must be met in the same way as those of that time by dealing; with the uean prooiema oi man.. World Growing Better. Dr. Jordan asserted indignantly that If he believed the conditions of todav as bad as when Christianity came into tne world he would be verv much dis couraged for the efficacy of Christian ity. He said the conditions 6f those days had never since been equaled in their darkness. He also disagreed with Mr. Leonard's unauallfled statement that no rich man could be a follower of ooa, and some one suggested that this wouia aepena on tne aennltlon of rich man. He held that what Socialism needs PULLMAN EPISODES To show how oeoole are talking nn the cars, as well as in the homes, let us cite two Instances; A Mrs. Moon of Cleveland was on a train going from Denver to Colorado springs. A not box caused delay. Va rious topics were discussed. Finally the conductor said, "I wish every one knew of my recovery. I was given up with Brlght's Disease. Look at me now. - Mrs. Moon asked him what hs had tacen. Upon his reply she put the name down and on her return to Den ver put ner mother, who was in the last stages of Brlght's Disease, n the treatment. She- recovered. And now another instance along the same line. A director of the Cltisena' Bavin its Bank of Detroit was traveling in . juicnigan. in a conversation with an acquaintance he told him he had Brlght's Disease. The conductor over heard htm -as he Was passing through the car -, and , said, 'Excuse me, but I had Brlght's Disease, and badly, too, and got well." On being asked what be had taken, he replied, "It Is made out in California and is called Fulton's Renal Compound." t This decided the banker and. at last reports, he was : on his fourth bottle and getting such favorable results that upon hearing that a friend of his by the name of Vaughn, also a prominent man In Detroit business circles, had Brlght's Disease, he nt him word about the Fulton treatment and ad vised Mm to put himself on it with out delay. And the latter is now on the t:omrouno. . e kldmore Drug Co., Third street I now Is proper ' leaders and said that Emma Goldman did harm to the cause because she had not properly controlled herself. Several cried out ' excitedly that she ' was not a Socialist but - an anarchist, but Dr. Jordan stuck to It that she was originally a Socialist, whose energies were misdirected into Improper channels. Mr. Smith finished the discussion by pronouncing the .question to ' stand where it was before .and he said that the speakers had merely been ' airing Individual views, and the fact stltl re mained that the New - Testament was at the bottom of all evolutionary or revolutionary movements Sympathy was extended to Rev. Mr. Mlnaker on the loss of his church by fire and promises of aid were made. Spend Your Holiday Vaca- tion at Paso Kobles.
