CHURCH AUTHORITY

Mr.. BEEcnER has said something good
on Church authority. Intolerance and
bigotry pass away as the mistS of lgno-
rance clear up. He said
II have no overwecning attachment
to the church as a physical organization
am rather than over the line on that
subject. | believe that the church Is
useful: but | do not belivo that any
particular church on the face of the
alobe is ordained of God. Idonot believe
one church is any better than another SO
far as ordinance is concerned. | do not
believe there is any pattern whatsoever
laid down in the New Testament accord
inc to which churches stand on the same
ground that common schools and literary
institutions do. They are found to be
useful, and to promote mans growth,
and SO they are right. j.,
| believe that ordinances, eternal
forms. arc matters Of utter Indifference
Baptism is baptism, whether it be affus-
ion, or sprinkliug, or immersion. The
Lords Supper, fit be administered by
a priest or a minister, is good enough
if it be administered by the father in
the family, it is good enough; and if
there is no one else to administer it, and
YOU administer it to yourself, it is just
as good. The Lords Supper belongs to
every man that belongs to the Lord Je-
sus Christ; and he has just as much
right to administer it to himself as to
have it administered to him by priest.
In regard to churches, ordinances,
and governments, | take the broadest
ground and say that they are useful, but
there is not one of them that is obliga-
tory, as having warrant in Scripture ;
and no man can come TO us saying,
"Thus saith the Lord" in respect to
them.
Do you suppose that is the wedding,
when the young man and his blushing
bride stand up and exchange vows =
The wedding took place when their two
hearts rushed together as one, and when
they claspcd each other, and said
Thine for life; mine for life. ,"

PLoUGHING Up SILVER CON- On
Monday, we we're shown, by Mr.. Perry,
of the house of Bright & Perry, five old
Spanish dollars, and one old half dollar,
u. S. coin, which were found in the field
Of Mr.. John Vann, of Webbcr's Falls,
Cherokee Nation. 1t appears, that one
day last week, Mr.. Vann was ploughing
in his field, and his pillow struck some
thing, and stopping his mule, aud sup
posing it to be root, he struck the
mule with his lash, and give a sudden
pull, when up came five old Spanish dol
lars. Mr.. V. went to the spot where
the coin appeared, and on examination
found kcg full Of the coin, the slaves
of the kcg were rotten, but the dollars
were as sound as when coined at the ole
Spanish mint. On digging he found i
contained five thousand dollars, all il
old Spanish dollars of the date abou
1906, and American half dollars of ole
date. The key must have been burieC
twenty or thirty years ago. Since the
finding of this money, the whole field
has been dug up in search of hidden
treasure.-EOH SmiM Herald.

How TO KEEP CooL.-The following
simple hints from the Scientific American
arc useful to remember during the warm
weather ofthc present season: "Be spar
ing in your diet, which should consist
principally of fruits, berries and vcgeta-
bles. Avoid everything of greasy ma
turc, also spices, condiments, and sweets:
Drink nothing but water. Chew nothing
but food, chew that well, but not chew
too much of it. Excess in eating is one
of the principal causes of that lazy, list
less, relaxing feeling experienced by so
many persons in very hot weather. Dress
lightly and change often. Wear nothing
at night which is worn during the day.
Battle the body every morning with cool
or cold water. Keep clean conscience
as we'll as a clean body and clean cloth
ing, and don't get excited. If uncomfort-
laby warm at any time, immcrse the
hands, or feet, or both in cold water, for
short time, or let stream of cold water
run upon the wrists and ankles. This
will cool the whole body in short time.
