| q Cor, 7:1O). Nor is it a reformed
life, even in the first step of its living
This is the fruit of repentance. Re.
pentance, strictly speaking, is an act
of the will. It is a change of purpose
which naturally results in a change of
action. But, in our loose way of
speaking we are apt to include in our
idea of repentance both Cody sor-
row and the fruits of our change of
purpose. Faith is rooted in our intel
lectual and affectual natures. Repent
ance is rooted in the volitional nature.
What is the value of repentance
Just what does it do toward our saw
ing? 1t affects us rather than God,
and what it really does for us is to
secure spiritual union with God. The
changing from our selfish purpose i'm
plies the changing TO Gods purpose,
and making His will ours. When that
is done He and we are spiritually one.
We are the saved from our sins by
entering into holy purpose which is
later to be lived out in a holy life.
This is the accomplishment of the
ethical. moral, psycical act called re-
pentance. 1t is wholly different from
penance. The latter consists in self
imposed suffering or tasks for the sake
of securing merit.
Penance centers the attention In
God as if He were the one needing to
be influenced rather than emphasizes
the radical change in the individual
himself, where aloue change is really
necessary Repentance - inward and
vital. Penance is external and apt to
be formal.
Is there no salvation without re-
pentance? Our blessed Lord says not.
Not only must the wicked repent, but
all men everywhere. And why this
Not because God arbitrarily requires
it. but because there is no one whose
purpose has been steady to Gods pur-
pose as is the magnet to the pole Be
cause our wills have been selfish and
contrary to His, change is necessary II
His will is to become ours. This
change is unavoidable If we would pass
from sin to holiness where we may find
ourselves saved from sin and this
change constitutes repentance,
No ordinary resolving is going to get
rid of the results of our wildcat SOW
ing. Nor will reaping save US from
future harvests if the stalk be left
rooted in the soil. We must dig down
and uproot the source f:om whence the
stalk springs. Perchance we shall nave
10 water the earth much with our tears
before it viii be softened enough that
the uprooting can be done. Well Tor
rs if with all our care we can make the
ground sweet again by our dying day.
Repentance Is the pivotal point IN
mans conversion. Is it strange that
il is over the one sinner who repents
that our Savior says there is so much
rejoicing in Heavens How glad I am
that the power to repent resides within
rs. and it is our privilege 10 give this
exquisite joy to both men and angels

Presumably to support the deduction,
it is said L 'uprooted and burned all

are of too great value to be consign-
ed to the flames, unless there be cogent
reasons for doing 500. ED.
There is also allusion in the same
article to the green bug having been
found on coffee trees. If such be the
case, Mr.. Kotinsky kept the knowl-
edge to himself-as he did not men,
ton it to any one of the planters with
whom he came in contact.
1t is not in my province to take up
cudgels on behalf of those interested
in this cuiture-they are we'll able to
look after their own interests-but I
can not refrain from saying, that to
attribute the destruction of coffee in
Ceylon to the green bug, is entirely
erroneous.

Vanilla-Park Estate,

Napoopoo, Hawaii, Dec. Is, 1905.
Editor Advertiser: In your issue of
the 5th inst, under the heading Dead
ly Plant Blight Discovered in Kona,"
certain allegations are made. which, if
allowed to pass unchallenged, may have
a pernicious effect on more than one
of the industries-other than sugar
to which attention is being given in
this locality.
The article is, presumably, a resume
tinsky-the outcome of his recent visit
to Kona.
I quote the following:
Mr. Kotinsky found both the qua
va scale and green bug injecting
some vanilla plants and lime trees
there" (Mr. E. H. Edwards vanilla
plantation.)
With regard to Mr.. Kotinsky find
ing either guava scale or green bug
on my vanilla, 1 give the assertion an
unqualified denial.
When in correspondence with that
gentleman, prior to his visit, 1 told
him of a discoloration on the leaves
which was new to me, and which was
causing me some anxiety. This 1
pointed out to him on his visit; but
it is as distinct from guava scale or
green bug as chalk is from cheese.
I have since learned that the same
blemish on the leaves is to be found
on vanilla vines growing in Honolulu
In another paragraph it is stated:
"It was fairly established that the
pest had come on vanilla vines from
Fiji"
1t would be interesting to learn up
on what hypothesis this conclusion had
been fairly established
When Mr.. Kotinsky visited this es-
tate, he found: a little green bug on
three small lime trees that 1 brought
with me from Fiji three years ago: a
great deal of the same bug on fairly
large orange tree that had been plant
ed before I went to those islands. and
none of it on the vanilla-nOr did he
find any in Mr. Woods vanillerie-the
onIv other planter who has imported
vanilla vines from that source. This
being the case, to arrive at the con-
clusion that the green bug had come
on vanilla vines from Fiji" is a spe-
cies OF logic foreign to nv educate

First Baptist Church.

The First Baptist church Of Canon
City had its origin with little band Of
pioneers who came here from Iowa in
an early day, all Of whom were Baptists,
with one exception, and they became
the nucleus OF the present church. This
was in August, 1854 and IN March. S55,
an adobe church was erected on Main
street. The history Of the church has
been marked by continuous advance
ment, and in 1892 the needs of the con-
gregation we're met by the erection Of
the present splendid structure which
cost nearly 10000. The membership
now numbers something like $50 and
comprises many Of the leading citizens
In connection with the church there is
a prosperous Sunday school, B. Y, p.
U. and various other auxiliary orgsn-
izations. For the last nine years Rev.
b. E. Harl has been pastor of the con-
gregation and the splendid condition
OF the church is ample evidence OF the
good work he has accomplished.

In March 1908 Rev. J. T. Wilson Of
Lincoln Park commenced preaching
for those who in confession OF faith
called themselves Reformed Presby-
terians," but the practical organiza-
tion of the congregation WAS not con-
summated until April %, 1904, when it
became the Coyenanter church OF Can
on City. Up to October 18th OF last
year Rev. j. T. Wilson was stated sup
ply, but at that time a call WAS made
to Rev. II. b. Mcmillan TO take charge
OF the congregation. He was installed
as pastor at Shaeffer hall Monday even
ing, December 2sth in the presence OF
a large assemblage OF people.
The church has at present an active
membership of about twenty and a
Sunday school organized April %, 1904,
with membership of twenty. five.
This WAS held at first in Harrison
school house, Harding's addition, later
was moved to Dodd's Commercial col
lege and now occupies Shaeffer hall.
