nal love we must have regard to moral distinctions. We must ask what it means for men in general and what for the child ren of the kingdom. The words of Jesus are so plain that there Is no room for controversy. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God even to them that be- lieve on his name; which were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God" This Is more than moral distinction in the common acceptation of the term. 1t is a distinction based upon an experience of regenerating grace This passage Is supplemented by love your enemies, bless them that curse you that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven" The maintenance of that chari- ty that thinketh no evil, perpetuates the distinction resulting from the new birth.
 Sounds Like a Truism.
 Though 1t may sound like trusm 1t needs to be emphasized that our Lord s purpose In setting forth this glorious doc Urine was not speculative primarily ar , gumentative; 1t was practical 1t is not formally stated to be learned alike by all people; but it was set forth in para bles chiefly, in answer to those who lifted up imploring hands where he journeyed and lduBnt. IL IS not expressed Tn Sncn way as to satisfy those who would learn religion as they would mathematics It was not spoken for them 1t was spoken for those. who conscious of sin and guilt and the pressure of the world, the flesh and the devil are trembling lest they make shipwrecks of their souls, and who look in vain for some friendly harbor along the shore line of lifes troubled sea in which they may find refuge
 One practical purpose of this doctrine is to make people real In prayer. In ap- preaching God don't be embarrassed as if you were addressing a pompous king, or an adversary, who by persuasion, must be won to your side of the controversy Remember that he Is our Father who made and orders all things for his chil- drens sake, and who is always on our 1 side, even when we are not. Embarrass- | ment and affectaton are the foes of real 1 ity everywhere. There is less provoeation | for these in the presence of those who l know us than elsewhere. To always be l conscious that we are addressing the true Father in prayer, is a great aid to being real in prayer

NO COFFEE HOUSES HERE.
land IL Not Taken up In the
UnIted states.

The coffee house is n temperance
substitute for the inn in England, says
Gunton's Magazine. 1t furnishes,
minus the Intoxicating stimulants,
similar social features, but il is tackled
on to the same social habits that the
inn developed. In this country those
habits were not formed by the saloon
experience, and the attempt to esiab-
lish the coffee house as a substitute
for the saloon necessarily lacks that
social incentive which exists In Eng
land. The coffee house here takes on
the feature of the restaurant rather
than either the German beer garden
or the English inn. The Americans
have never learned to go to these
places for their leisurely intercourse
and amusements and hence do not find
il when coffee is ubstituted for beer,
They have gone to the theaters or
to the clubs for this social outlet.
II is, therefore, not surprising to the
careful student OF European and
American traditions that the coffee
house plan does not work in this coun-
try, though it worked well in Eng
land. TO be successful, social and eco
nomic as well as political institutions
must largely grow out Of the habits,
customs and desires Of the people.
They cannot TO any considerable eN-
tent be transplanted from one country
to another,

A PLEASANT LAWN SOCIAL TO HAVE CHAIR FACTORY
Held Last Week for Benefit OF
Bethany Manse.

The lawn party given last Wednes-
day evening at the residence Of DR..
and Mrs. Moore by the ladies society
Of the Presbyterian church was an ex-
ceptionally enjoyable event. The
lawn was illuminated with japanese
lanterns and electric lights placed
specially for the evening, A large
crowd was in attendance and the air
of pleasant sociability dominating the
occasion was especially noticeable.
A brief program was given, consist
ing of a vocal solo by Mrs. Gault, a
violin solo by Prof. Kurth and a
piano solo by Miss Eula Howard.
Each number was accorded an en-
thusiastic encore by the audience.
Refreshments Of ice cream and cake
were served at tables placed under
the trees of the lawn and it was near
midnight before the people dispersed
for their homes. Ii was a financial
as we'll as a social success and the
proceeds are to be devoted to the ex-
penses of the manse for the Presbyter-
ian church

The Women Know Best.

Much comment has been caused by
the official reports of the United
States and Canadian governments, in
which are presented the evidences Of
the superior strength. purity and
wholesomeness of the Royal Baking
Powder.
1t is true that the good housewife
looks upon commendations Of the Royal
Baking Powder from scientists ana
official sources such as these very much
like the gliding Of refined geld. "
Her practical experience long since
taught her in the most Convincing
way the great usefulness and superior
ity of the Royal article. A higher
proof than this she does not want and
cannot have. Yet 1t is pleasant for
her to realize that the facts established
by these great competitive tests, these
scientific examinations made under d.
rection of the Government. exactly
parallel those she had before worked
out in her own common-scnse, practi-
cal way.
1t does not appear that any baking
powder, when presented in competi-
tion with the Royal, either at the
Government tests or before Worlds
Fair juries, has ever received favor',or
award over the Royal or made an equal
showing in purity, strength or whole
someness.

SAW SUICIDE IN VISION
Rem Q. rka BILE Story In Regard to
Death Of Ida Page

There is q marvellous story in circu-
lation connected with the suicide of
Ida Page near Roseburg last week.
Prof. Campbell of Monmouth was
ON the southbound train Tuesday even
ing and it is stated that when near
Leland he told Conductor Kearney
that he had seen the body of woman
lying near the track just out of Rose
burg, describing the spot where Miss
Pages body was found the next morn
ing But it is stated as fact that at
the time when the train that bore
Prof. Campbell passed through Rose
burg, Miss Page was at the depot and
was seen afterwards on the street.
As near as can be learned, she did not
go to the place where her body was
found until after nine O'Clock, some
where near the time when Prof.
Campbell is said to have told his
story to the conductor. Unless some
confusion of times is proven, the oc-
currence will remain marvel.

THRESHING HAS BEGUN
Light Crops Prevail In the Rogue
River Valley.

Ihreshiug began IN the Rogue river
valley this week. The crop is the
lightest in years ON account Of the ex-
treme dryness of the season. Fall sown
grain has made, as always, very
good crop but the spring sown grain
is extremely light except on the bot
tom lands. One feature Of the season
which made it harder on the farmers
was that the winter was extremely
aud continually wet, making it diff
cult TO plant grain until 80 late that
the dry season set in before the grain
had a sufficient start.

sheep, she hates. She will not eat

dog will not bite her.
