The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1904-04-30

0NE of Jesus disciples, Matthew,
~ was taken from the despised class
Of publicans, or tax gatherers. And
this served further to identify Jesus
with the despised lower classes. To
the punctilious and sanctimonious
Pharisees there was no greater con-
domination which they could pro-
nounce against Jesus than 10 say that
He associated with and ate III the COM
pany of publicans and sinners. The
scribes and Pharisees observed such
rigid rules in regard to outward con-
duct and associations, were so faith
full to avoid all manner of deflement,
that they stood aghast and filled with
horror at the conduct and associations
of Jesus. He, claiming to be Teacher
sent from God; yea, more, claiming to
be the Son Of God. the promised Mes
siah, eating with publicans and sin
ners! He, receiving their attentions!
He, graciously ministering unto them.
and fellowshiping with them and even
choosing from among their number
those who should be His disciples!
What a violation Of all that they had
held sacred! No wonder as they saw
these things that they murmured. No
wonder they cast slurs upon Him. No
wonder their unrepentant hearts were
hardened before the gracious work Of
mercy Of the Divine Lord. But He
was pleased to be known as the Friend
of sinners, and to this day He Is
known as such. Through all the GEN.
turtles which have unfolded since then
He has continued as the Friend of the
sinner. And, blessed be God! It is
true. How He has gathered the needy
multitudes about Him, how He has
succOrsd and blessed them. The
Friend of5lnnersi
TIE was known as such because Of
! ! his personality. because He was
the Son of God. Instinctively, people
were drawn to Him. Little children
felt the charm and sweetness and

V7HEN the woman who was sim
w ner came and threw herself at
Jesus feet as He sat at meat in the Phari-
sees house, and washed His feet with
her tears and wiped them with the
hairs of her head and poured fragrant
ointment upon them, He graciously
and tenderly received the devotion OF
the heart that longed for a better and
purer life, and rebuked the proud
Pharisee, who was shocked that Jesus
should allow this sinful woman to
touch Him. When Jesus passed
through Jericho on one occasion He
went out of His way to invite Himself
to dine with Zaccheus, the tax gather
er, the notorious bad man of the town.
Repeatedly Scripture declares that the
sinners and publicans flocked to Jesus,
and He welcomed them always. And
when the Pharisees murmured He told
them the beautiful and touching sto-
ries of the lost sheep. the lost coin
and the lost boy, and by them gave
Heavens standards of values and
showed how much soul was worth in
the estimation of God. And even in
death Jesus found Joy and fellowship
with the sinner as the dying thief
turned to Him for comfort and He re-
piled: "This day shalt thou be with
Me in paradise" Jesus was the Friend
of sinners. He was willing to be
known as such. He welcomed them as
they came, He helped them as they
tarried, He sent them forth to purer
and better lives.

BEAUTIFUL BUILDING.
Splendid Audiences-Great Re-
opening.

The First Baptist Church Of this
city was formally reopened on Sun
day morning last.
The beautiful house was literally
packed to the doors with an audi
ence composed of some of the best
people of our city and quite a num-
Der OF visitors from other points.
Rev. Dr. +. c. Dargan, of the
Southern Baptist Theological Sem
mary. was the preacher of the oc-
casiun, and for forty minutes he
held the undivided attention Of the
vast assemblage, as in plain and
simple language, yet as vivid as
lightning, in its flashes Of ora tory,
he told the "old, old story" which
ever has, and always will have, the
power TO make men feel, believe
and tremble. and, at the same time,
fill the souls of believers with new
trust in the unchan9ing Christ.
At the conclusion of the sermon,
in few appropriate words, DIR.
Dargan invited any of the congre-
CATION who felt so disposed to con-
tribute to the liquidation of the
amount yet remaining unpaid upon
the handsome building, upon whose
remodeling and Identification he
heartily congratulated the people.
In about fifteen minutes some
az. 800 was subscribed for the pur-
pose indicated. and the congrega-
ton was dismissed with the bene-
diction.
80 p. ~. another tremendous
audience greeted the grand preach
eraS he. in tender words, told again
the simple story Of redeeming love,
As living and breathing in the lives
of men. In burning words he urged
upDu his audience to be men and
women and to amount to something
beyond IA mere existence, even II
moving in the humblest walks of
life.
DR.. DargaE added immeasurably
TO his already splendid reputation
as a preacher Of the plain and prac-
tical gospel Of our Lord, and his
flights Of oratory were always beld
subject TO his theme in that Christ
was the all and in all, the hope Of
glory.
The special music rendered by
the choir of the church, assisted by
Mr.. --- Ramsey, of Louisville,
was delightfully."- sweet and appro-
ornate. while every one or the
hymns sung was an old and IA
miliar one. and the vast volume OF
music that rolled up from the
thousand voices was something
rarely heard i'm these days, when
so much of the church singing is
by the choir only.
About the happiest people in ouI
city, on Sunday, were the brilliant

see to it that they live up to that
standard in the future.
A delightful little incident of the
exercises was the receipt of the
following telegram from the only
living ex-pastor of this church:
Petersburg Va. Feb. 6. 1904.
/" First Baptist Church, Frankfort,
Ky: . .,.71. 81

THE following is the passage of
scripture referred to: Il thank my
God upon all my remembrances Of
yOu, always in every supplication
of mine on behalf of you all, MAX
ing my supplication with Joy, for
your fellowship in furtherance OF
the gospel, from the first day until
now: being confident of this very
thing. that He who began good
work in you vii perfect it until
the day of Jesus Christ"
An appropriate response was
made by order of the church.
After the storm and stress of the
early morning, the sky cleared
away. the sun shone out brightly,
and the air was fresh and crisp. A
finer winter day could not nave
been asked for.

PROFIT

The matter of feed is OF
tremendous Importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod LIVER Oil in it
makes flesh, blood And muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

How Dwight L. Moody Was Taken In

When D. L. Moody went to Beth
anv during his travels in the east he
was very soft hearted over all the
multitude Of beggar> there, not only
because the place is so unusual, but
because he was moved by its beautl-
full traditions. He gave quantities
of backSheesh and then asked II

" to result in fight for existence.
The case was getting desperate, and
he told the dragoman to call for 81
lence while he made an address.
Then he said:
Il have come 5000 miles to see
this little village of Bethany. 1t

it, and | have come to see it because
he loved it. | am very glad to meet
you all, but now | want to be alone.
I have no more backsheesh, and |
bid you all goodby."
A fine looking boy of sixteen re-
piled to the address. He spoke flu
emily and with the grace of an ora
tor. Mr.. Moody was delighted with
the beginning of his grafton, but not
with its conclusion:
owe are glad to see the gentle
man and his friends who have come
so far, but the gentleman must not
think that his actions are equal to
the importance of his visit. Six
thousand miles is a long way to
come, and the gentleman must have
sacrificed much to make the visit.
In consequence it is natural for us
to expect that he would be munifi-
cent in backsheesh. This he has not
been, and now we expect that he will
give us a great deal more"
Mr.. Moody was so disguised that
he abandoned the situation entirely
and hurried away with his friends.
