Inc dent That Enraged tho Actor
and Amused the Audience.
Some years sgo a melodrama was
living performed in a country theater,
the chief actor hi which bi d made
himself, from hla haughty and over-
bearUg conduct, disliked by all. lu
the last scene ho was supixiscd to
vl-it the to ribs of bls ancestor. In
the center of the stage upon a marble
pedeu'al stood the statue of bls father
A heavy fold of ' rupery covered the
; figure. Enter Albert, who thus ad
dres '-ed the statue:
"1 am hue once again to gaze upon
‘ th se features which hi life so often
lo-dred on me with teuderest affection.
1 uth, r. t gr mourning sou now comes
to pay thee adoration. I*vt me re-
I move Hi - veil which from the vulgar
gaze shields lhe beloved Image of a
once dear parent!”
Off went the drapery, and, behold,
there was disclosed the statue of the
father gratefully standing uiion Its
! bead.
The effect cannot be described, It
was electric. '1 Im shouts of laughter
which followed I lie mistake of the su

BUSINESS LETTERS,
Writs to a Man Just as You W raid
Talk to Him at Your Desk.
Business letter writing Is no longer
merely ’x-orresiiondence,” but "litera­
ture,' and the correspondent who for­
merly wasted his precious breath ou
each Inanities us "Yours received and
contents duly noted” ls now relegated
to the “old school” class, and unless
he Is willing to adopt the new rules of
letter writing he is likely to change
not only his position, but tind It neces­
sary to change his vocation as well.
The up to date business man does
not waste time indulging in the pro
llminaries of "I l*g to acknowledge
receipt” or "In reply would say.” but
goes straight to the subject nt issue
firmly, without frills, even eliminat­
ing the time worn advice. “Awaiting
your early reply," and closing without
the absurdity of "Begging to remain.’
"Write to n man exactly as you
would talk to him If he were sitting at
your desk," Is the maxim of one of
the best authorities on letter writing
In Chicago. By eliminating useless
phrases having no bearing on the sub­
ject the business man not only saves
his own time In dictating, but that of I
his stenographer In transcribing the
notes. By the old method of letter I
wilting the opening and closing of
letters contained almost five lines of
useless "form" matter which would
average on 100 letters Just 500 lines of
superfluous effort.—Chicago Tribune.
THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH AND
BAPTISM.
I. --The Place of Christian Baptism.
1.—It is in the Great Commission. Matt. 28:19, 20; Mk. 16:15, 16.
2—It ie commanded in the first gospel sermon. Acts 2:38.
3. It ie the last step of the soul into Christ. Gal. 3:27.
One cannot preach a full gospel and leave out Baptism.
II. -The Form of Baptism. Rom. 6:17.
1.
Meaning of the Greek word baptizo-“ to immerse, to sub­
merge, to dip.”
No Greek scholar ever translated it sprinkle or pour.
2. —How it was done for the first 700years. Rom. 6:4.
3_ How the change was made. In 753, Pope Stephen II. per­
mitted the sprinkling of babies not well enough to be im­
mersed ; sprinkling was made a law by Catholic Council at
Ravenna, 1311.
Whom will you take-the Pope or Christ ?
III. -Prerequisits of Baptism.
1. —Faith, Mk. 16:16; Acts 18:8.
2. —Repentance, Acts 2:38.
3. —Confession, Roni. 10:9; I. John 4:15.
Therefore an infant cannot bejscripturally baptized.
IV. —Purpose of Baptism.
1. —Unto remission of past sins. Acts 2:38; 22:16.
2. —Gift of the Holy Spirit. Acte 2:38.
3. — Into the name of Christ, Acts 19:5, the time when we re­
ceive the name Christian.
4. —Into Christ and his church. Gal. 3:27; Eph. 1:22, 23.
• THERE IS ONE BAPTISM.” Eph. 4:5.

INFORMATION by TELEPHONE
INFORMATION BY TELEPHONE.
PEOPLE are not leaving so much to chance in
these days of universal telephone service. Instead
of risking disappointment they telephone and get
the facts.
Will school be held on a stormy morning, will
your friend be in if you call, what does the weather
man predict and when does the train leave—are
samples of myriads of questions constantly passing
over the wire, and being answered by the proper
authorities.
There are also questions to be asked about the
telephone service, how somebody can be reached
over the Bell Long Distance Telephone and what
it will coat, and similar questions, which are being
answered by the information operators.
