Pkg STREET CHURCH.


Rev. S. ID. Paine preached a practical, eio-
quent and forcible sermon yesterday morning
at Pine street church, on the "Unevangelized
masses and how to reach them," taking his
text from 1st Corinthians, 1O-33-"Even as l
pleased all men in all things, not seeking
mine own profit. but the profit of many they
may be saved
He described the great apostle to the Gen.
tiles, his life of devotion and conservation to
his divine master, his broad and catholic
spirit, his adapting himself to all conditions
and classes in the now essentials but stand
ing like granite boulder for the fundalnen-
tai principles of religion.
The church of today is stronger. purer
and more Christ like than ever before in her
history, not Il country on the globe but is
open for her missionaries and yet with all
this influence hardly one-half of the people
of this, the most Christian country in tine
world attend divine worship, what must we
do to bring them IMP
The church of today needs PauPs Catholic
spirit. Christ's church should be free
church, cast may exist without its walls but
never should cross Its threshold. God sees
not the rich or the poor. but through the ex-
ternals to the Christian character beneath
them. We should hot build lofty and noble
churches for the rich and cultured only, to
worship In, and try to satisfy the poor with
mission chapels. In the great Catholic
cathedrals on the continent prince and pea
sent, rich and poor kneel together side by
side.
The church Is the greatest anti-poyerty So
ciety on the globe, the bulwark OF temper
ance, into her Golfers each year are poured
$50, O00, COO, a great sum, but In the saloons
we spend over $500 100000, which would be
far better for us if sunk into the bottomless
depths of the ocean. To draw men and wo-
men into the church we must go into the
highways and by-ways with brotherly and
sisterly large heartedness, bringing men TO
Christ through the influence OF loving
Christ like character. -,
In the evening a sermon on The cause
and remedy for skepticism," from John 20,
"a and rs was preached.
The meetings are largely attended and are
growing In interest. The young people are
awakening and their services at six O'Clock
show a revival spirit.

A Washington special to the New York
Sun notices that James G. Blaine, Jr., spent
several hours at the Capitol one day last
week, and because he is the son of his father
he attracted considerable attention. The
young man is spending some days in Wash

He has changed considerably since the DAYS
few years ago, when he was one of the
best known of the young men about town in
Washington. 1t was reported at the Capital
that young Blaine was there on mission
from his distinguished father. This rumor
was heightened by the fact that he had con-
ferences with several members of the House,
particularly with Mr.. Milliken of Maine,
with whom he was in close conversation for
some time. The gentlemen, however, all de-
MED that anything political was being talked
OF, and said that Jimmie" was there simply

Ministries will begin at Portland Theatre and
the performance will be given next Wednes-
day evening. An exchange says: Dock
stader struck out for success by discarding
all the stale material, and his jocose efforts
are new and original. The Dockstader quips
and trayesties keep up with the topics of the
day. Another reason for this revived popu-
larlty is that the jokes are not usually from
the barroom or the gambling house. The
Dockstader show is distinctly polite, without
thereby losing at all in virility. A third
winning element is the singing. The vocal
ism amounts to ballad concert by excellent
voices -

Are the best months in which to purify your
blood, for at no other season does the system so
much need the aid of a reliable medicine like
Hoods Sarsaparilla, as now. The impoverished
condition of the blood, the weakening effects of
the long, cold winter, the lost appetite, and that
tired feeling all make a good spring medicine
absolutely necessary. Hoods Sarsaparilla is
peculiarly adapted for this purpose, and increases
in popularity every year. 1t Is the ideal
