"A NEW RELIGION." In an address before the summer school of theology on tho "New Re ligion," President Eliot, of Harvard college, ventured to make what might be called a prediction. The talk will be found to be thoughtful along religious lines and will attract the attention of men who study the trend of religious convictions. The world Is advancing, it is true, and changes will come, yet It . decldely questionable if the religious thought will to any great extent change dur ing the present century. The learn ed educator Is entitled to a careful hearing from those who are unpre judiced, here are a few Ideas taken from headdress. President Emlrltus Charles V. Eliot of Harvard University, in the course of an address before the Sum mer School of Theology, on "The New Religion," discussed what might be expected as the coming religion. His address was much In the nature of a prophecy. He said: "The progress of the Twentieth century will bring about what I call the new religion. The new religion will not be based upon authority, either spiritual or temporal; the present generation Is ready to be led, but not driven. "As a rule the older Christian churches have relied on authority, but there Is now a tendency toward liberty and progress, and among edu cated men this feeling Is Irresistible. "In the new religion there will be no personfieatlon of natural objects; there will be no deification of re markable human beings and tho faith will not. be racial or tribal. "In war times the tribal faith comes out strongly. The new reli gion will not nfford safety primari ly to the Individual; it will admit neither a sudden conversion in this world nor a sudden paradise in the next. "The new religion will not think of God ns a long glorified man or n king or a patriarch, it will 'believe In no malignant powers and It. will attack quickly all forms of evil. "Now, let ns consider the posi tive elements of this coining religion. A new thought of God will he Its characteristic; tho twentieth cen tury religion accepts llternlly St. Paul's statement: in Mini we live and move and have our being. This new religion will be thoroughly monotheistic. God will be so Im minent that no Intermediary will be needed. For every man God will be a multiplication of Infinities, "This religion rejects the Idea Hint man is an alien or a fallen being who is hopelessly wicked. It finds such beliefs inconsistent with a worthy Idea of God. "It will admit no sacraments, ex cept natural, hallowed customs and It will deal with natural Interpreta tion of such rlteB. The new religion will not attempt to reconcile people to present Ills by the promise of fu ture compensation. "I believe the advent of Just free dom for mankind tins been delayed for centuries by Just such promises. The new religion will not even imu glne the 'Justice of God.' Civilized nations realize that legal punish ments now frequently fall of their To Our Dear Friend The Merchant: I .Coffee I The aroma-tlght can protects It against impurities and deteri oration never aold in bulk. Your rrocer will prind lt petter If ground at noma not too fine. purpose, and the new religion can not pretend to understand God's lust- Ice, for there Is no earthly conception as a comparison. "The new religion will laud God'a love and will not teach condemnation for the mass of mankind. Rased on the two great commandments of lov ing God and one's neighbor, the new religion will tench that he is best who loves best and serves best, and the greatest service will be to In crease the stock of good will."

Norton returned Saturday from their trip to Tilla mook and tell of a very exciting run awny which happened to their pnrty near Sheridan. About three weeks ago Mr. nnd Mrs. S. Norton and Mr. and Mrs. Nnthan Norton left this city for Tillamook to visit with their brother, .1. L. Norton, and on arriving at Sheridan they were obliged to go the remainder of the way by wagon. They were met there by Fred Nor ton and his little C-year-old grand son with a conveyance. The team was a perfectly gentle one and had never given trouble before, but a dog running across the road frighten ed them and they ran away. The wagon wob upset turning bottom side up and the occupants were pinned beneath the wngon bed. Had It not been for tho fact that the wagon became uncoupled In turning over, a part or probably all of tho party would have been dragged to almost certain death. As It was they were all Injured, 8. Norton, of this place, being the most serl.niRly hurt. He was unconscious when picked up and for a time It wns feared that he was dead, but consciousness returned and It was found that a deep cut had been made on the face which necessitated seven stitches. Fred Norton sus tained a fractured rib and Ms little 5-year-old grandson had his ' collar bone broken. The others were more or less Injured. This was without doubt one of the narrowest escapes recorded for some time and the Nor tons may consider themselves for tunate In escaping with their lives. 8. Norton and Nathan Norton are uncles of Mrs. R. L. Demaree, of this city, and Fred Norton Is her brother. I mi you know bow to sell goods?
