A NIGHT OF TERROR.

Awful anxiety was felt for the widow of the brave General Burnham of Machias, Me-, when the doctors said she could not live till morning writes Mrs s. H. Lincoln, who attended her that fear ful night. "All thought she must soon die from Pneumonia, but she begged for Dr Kings New Discovery, saying it had more than once saved her life, and had cured her of Consumption. After three small doses she slept easily all night, and It's further use completely cured her." This marvellous medicine is guaranteed to cure all Throat, Chest and Lung Diseases. Only soc and $1.00.

LETTER TO TAYLOR. CURTIS & CO.,, sAHDY
 HOOK.

Dear Sir: We want an agent in your town for the foremost paint in the world : Devoe lead and zinc. We bespeak few words to say how much more this means than simply the sale of good paint.
 Our agent has to administer this agree ment with every customer.
 tiff you have any fault to find with this paint, either now in putting it on, or here after in the wear, tell your dealer about it."
 "We authorize him to do what ia right at our expense
 We become, you see, the partner of every man that uses our paint; and the partnership lasts as long as he chooses to continue it.
 Suppose 100 jobs of painting are done with Devoe lead and zinc this year; and some of them don't turn out satisfactory two or three years from now. Our agent has got to ''do what is right at our OK. pense."
 Of course thisssmeans that we know our paint is going to turn out all right.
 We have been in business, we and our fathers in business, 145 years have made great deal ot paint; and have dealt with thousands and thousands of people. Are not in the least afraid to s'do what is right" when job goes wrong.
 And, in this age of adulteration, we say "Send it to your state chemist. If he finds it adulterated, we will pay his bill and send you $100."
 There is such thing ss honest busi- ness yet in the world. Yours truly-[F. W. Devoe & Go.

THE FRANCISCAN FATHERS TO CONDUCT
 A MISSION HERE.

A mission conducted by the Franciscan Fathers of New York will open in St Roses church on Sunday morning, May 20, at 9.30. Although the mission was primarily intended for the members of St Roses parish, yet persons of all ereeds will be cordially welcomed, and will be shown special attention by the ushers of the church.
 The Fathers giving the mission, being fully aware from past experience that prejudice against the Catholic church is due largely to misunderstanding of the teachings of the church, and that there is now a general willingness to listen and learn from whoever speaks or writes in- telligently about the Catholic church. have determined to introduce a question box at this mission for the benefit of our non- Catholic friends. They can write their questions without signing any names, place them in the question box, and they will be answered in the columns of TEE NEwTowN BEE as soon Rs possi- ble after the close of the mission. It Is to be hoped that this innovation at a Catholic mission will not create any bitter feeling, but on the contrary will help to foster atrnore kindly and charita- ble feeling among the Christian people of Newtown.

Christ. There is no magic in this ordi- nance. No mysterious grace is imparted l through bread and wine. No amount of
 consecration can alter the character or | substance of either. A believer in Jesus Christ eats and drinks in commemorstion of his Lord. He reminds himsel, by Il @ act that as he nourishes his body with material food, SO he must nourish his soul upon the Christ. This ordinSrcs beais nc relation whatever to interdenomint- tional Christian fellowship. Bsptists hold the same views respecting the proper persons to sit st the Lords table ss all other evangelical bodies. No church standard authorizes & minister to Invite unbsptised persons to the Lords table. That is precisely the position of Bsptists. They differ from others in holding that no one is baptized unless he follow the example set by Jesus. But Bapt,s.s in New England to-day throw the responsi- bility of decision upon the conscience of the individual. There is where 1 think it ought to rest.
 "But," you ask me, do you can to say that Baptists are tfe only real Christians in the world, and that heaven is to be nothing but little Baptist meet ing-plsce?" No, do not mean to say that, nor to imply 1t. I believe that where two or three are gathered to- gethered in Christs name, He Is with them, and they have the nucleus of a church. Whatever organization they adopt, He will honor them with His blessing. if they honor Him in their hearts. They are not saved by the church-they have no right to join church until they are already saved. But if they follow the lines of erganiza- tion, of teaching, and raetice, indicated by the New Testament, they will find themselves Baptist church in spite of them as he could not otherwise. What if all the saints of the centuries hsd sd- hered closely to the ideals of the New Testament? There would be no heathen world to-day. but the kingdoms of this world would be the kingdom of the Christ. The New Testament church is 6 perfect instrument of evsngelization for that reason Bsptists hold fast to 1t. We bid God-speed to every man and woman,
 of whatever name, who seeks to enthrone the Christ, and are willing to believe that in every nation, as in every church, "he that feareth God, and worketh righteous ness, is acceptable to him." We unite
 heartily with all Christians in evangeli. ration and practical righteousness, en-
 deavoring to do justly, to love mercy,
 and walk bumbly with God. Upon the great church of Christ, composed of all
 who confess His lordship, and upon all
 men who serve humanity, we invoke Heavens blei sing. "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth"

 Stanley says, 'It is a striking example of the triumph of common sense and con- vesience over the bondage of form and custom" He says that while "immersion was peculiarly suitable to the Southern and Eastern countries for which 1t was designed" it was ''not found reasonable Tn the countries of the North and Vest" But even Homer sometimes mods, and I Deed not remind you that while sub tropical Italy has abandoned immersion, frozen Russia has retained it. England herself did not abandon even infant immersion wholly, until the middle of the seventeenth century, and then it was no violent climatic change that brought about that result.
 Baptism was the mould of doctrine, into which Christ poured the symbolism (l) of the New Birth, suggested by the element in which 1t occurred, cleansing water, and CD Union with Him, by faith, in His (3) Death, Burial and (4) Resur- rection. suggested by the burial of the body beneath the water, and the rising up, as out of the grave, into the [5) New Life of union with Him. Not one feature of this symbolism but is completely lost by the application of water in any other manner.
 Isit & trifiing question of much, or lit- tie, water? Ia thimbleful as good ss 8 lake? Possibly, if you wish to drink it, and are not thirsty, but not if bathing is your purpose. It is said that John the Baptist twas baptising in Aenon, near to Salim, because there was much water there." This was the man who baptise d J, sus in the Jordan, and he seemed to re- quire much water. It is impossible to rejoct the baptism of Jesus without breaking the mould of His doctrine. The meaning of it vsnishes. Better that 8 man should reject water baptism wholly, than than he should obscure the teaching of Jesus by accepting sub ! stitute.
 THE LORDS SUPPER. Co The third characteristic of the New Testament church was it's cele- brstion of the Lords Supper, This ordi- nance relates itself naturally to baptism as consequent. Baptism symbolizes l the introduction into the New Life, and the Lords Supper the continuous nourish
 ment of the regenerated soul upon
