pie at Jerusalem; one part is for the people,
the second is for the daily morning and even
ing offices corresponding to the daily sacrl-
fees in the temple, while the tnlra colle1
spends to the holy of holes. 1t is INTENDED
to be as free was the temple, where no
poor man felt himself debarred Only, did the
temple approach in likeness pewed church
when the Lord said: Eye have My house
house of merchandise" A common means
of church support is by bazaars. The Church
of the Good Shepherd does not have bazaars,
school room. Some will think this dis
tinction without a difference. 1t has been
represented to me that If those who have not
money give their time in making arucles;
opportunity should be afforded them to sell
what they have made. On the other mana,
bazaars are usually accompanied by costumes,
fish ponds. etc, and held in the business
part of town. Let the shoemaker stick to
his last. Every one should have his own par
ticular business to which he should diligently
attend. The legitimate business OF the church
is stated in the November number OF the
Minnesota Missionary under the heading
Church of the Good Shepherd" depart
ment store carried on by church in the
business part Of the town is not legitimate
tithes, and the Christian church should be
supported by the free will, conscientious and
systematic Offering Of the people.
The. second principle is daily service in the
church. The Catholic church grew out Of
the Jewish as a plant springs from a seed
The Jewish church was confined to the lit
tie Jewish nation. - The universal character
of the Christian church is indicated by the
Savior's command to his apostles, to go into
all the world Baptism succeeded crcumci-
sion, the holy communion was substituted at
the passover. The three orders of the Jew
ish priesthood were followed by the three
orders of the apostolic ministry. Our house
of bishops have called attention TO the I'M.
propriety of the expanding of large sums of
money in building magnificent churches and
then keeping them closed during the week.
Among men it is a question how much honor:
each to give the other. Man deals with God
the same way. He claims much honor for
himself, but is willing to give God little,
while God files a counter claim demanding
much honor for Himself. Wisdom requires
us to accommodate our ideas to His. In the
arrangement of the temple service lie has
indicated His will as to the standard of the
public services and the first Christians act
ed accordingly. Man is superior to the brute
creation, as in other respects, so especially
in that he knows of things he has never
occurring before his birth and of the in
visible world God belongs to the invisible
world, and access to Him is by faith. AS in
other things, SO in prayer, practice makes
perfect.
The third principle is the high celebration
on each Lords day and the rule of scriptures
and of antiquity.
The principle means that on each Lords
dav the chief service should consist. of the
celebration of the holy eucharist. JUSTIN
Martin. in the second century, gives an ac-
count of the Lords day service which is
made up of three principal features. In the
fifth century the barbarians continued the
ancient civilization and occasioned what we
