The weekly chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Craig County, Okla.) 1905-1913, 1912-04-12

God is infinite, the doctrine of the
Trinity seems like mathematical
monstrosity of making one equal three.
But when one bears in mind thar the
doctrine of the Trinity is an atta rpt
to put into forms of finite though the
facts of infinite being, and material
forms of expression the facts os the
Spirit, the difficulties vanish. The
simplicity of the Unitarian cOncep-
tion of God arises from its shallow
ness
The questioner asks If God fills in
finite space. He does; but that does
not imply that He is a partaker of,
or a part of. the material substance of
the universe, any more than Bergen
thaler the wonderful inventor Of the
linotype machine. was part of the ma
chine he created In spirit God is
everywhere. Yet in the theophonies.
or revelations of Himself to humanity.
as it declared in the Bible, He caused
himself to appear in material forms,
and laterally in the glorious Person of
Jesus Christ. Could not the Being
with whom nothing was or is impos-
sible do this? Most assuredly.
In concluding this paper John
Marcus would say that the secret
of all this etheistic questioning is to
be traced to the fact of MANS NAT
URAL HATRED OF GOD AND HIS
WORD. But there is even a differ
ence in atheistic conditions of mind
Some think atheism and others are
bold enough to give open expression to
their disbelief in the existence of
God.
Many years ago there was a bright
old Pennsylvania Dutch preacher
named Gruber who lived and labored
in certain localities where atheism
and infidelity abounded In one of
these places he gave an address on
The Being of God, in which he
mercilessly attacked the atheistic dog
mas. There was large attendance
of atheists and infidels, and at the
conclusion of the address, as Mr..
Gruber was about to pass out of the
church, a number of atheists, headed
by their spokesman accosted the
preacher, and boldly declared that he,
the preacher. had not proved the exist
ence of God at least to their way of
thinking The atest said: Mr..
Gruber, you have not proved the exist
ence of God we deny the existence
of God; there is no God; everything
came by chance" The old preacher
looked the speaker in the eye and then
in his inimitable broken English re-
piled Hut, tut, tut the fool hath
said IN HIS HEARS there is NO GOD;
but you're voree dan a fool you
BLAB IT RIGHT OUT!"
Perhaps in a succeeding paper | will
take up few of the other questions
put by Mr. Materialist, especially that
relating to hell and its locality. The
writer cannot say anything about the
infidel and atheists future home from
a personal knowledge of the place, and
never expects to go there; but there
is much in the Bible relating to "the
abode of the lost" and he will try and
give Bible answer to the question.
But the great desire of this scribe is
that men of that stamp and all other
sinners, may accept the Christ of the
Scriptures, and be saved from the aw-
full fate that awaists the finally inn
penitent.

Wake Up, You
 Lazy Stomach
Make Your Stomach CheerfulIy Do Its WorI-Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab- lets Digest Your Food and As
 sist the Stomach.

People who complain they are worp to a frazzle are nearly always dys- peptic and are recommended to use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. The stomach gets lazy, food ferments and sours gas belches up, there are symp- toms of bloating, the blood becomes thick and sluggish, the liver is blamed the head is heavy, the mind blank and the dining room is 8 chamber Of horrors.
 One of the greatest evils of our mod ern life is the quick lunch. To this evil, as much or more, than any other may be traced the preponderance of the stomach troubles of our times. In- stead of taking time to thoroughly nasticate the food before swallowing it. the average person ruShes through the meal. boIting the food, deglutition taking place while it is only. partially mixed with saliva, and only half mas ticated thus leaving the stomach to do the work the teeth should have done.
 stuart's Dyspepsit Tablets contain digestive clements, single grain be- ing capable of digesting 5000 grains of food, including meats, eggs grain. vegetables, starches and mineral mat ters They prepare every particle of food by thorough digestion for ready absorption and assimilation by the IacteaI glands, which pass it into the blood whence it is conducted to all parest of the system, rebuilding and revitalizing 1t.
 Every druggist has Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets in stock and sells them at 50 cents box.-Adv.

NO CONCESSION

WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT NOT PLANNING RETREAT ON
 TRADE TREATY.

Washington, Nov. 27-Reports irdi- eating that the United States Govern ment IS inclined to retreat from it's position in regard to the denunciation of the treaty of commerce with Rus 9ia' It can ns statea' are unfounded was denounced by joint resolution of Congress, which. with the Presidents signature, has the force of law, 1t is asserted that only by act of Congress could the provisions of that treaty be continued.
 Recently a report was put out from a certain qua rter here suggesting that modus vivendi had been agreed on by which the strictly commercial sec tions of the treaty should remain in force while the question of injustice to for later settlement. Lawyers here at once pointed out that such a course desired. The Jews would still be nnal- treated, and in the face of Congress sionaI action the treaty would to all intents remain in force.
 The suggestion that American tariff rates on Russian products will remain unchanged in spite of the denunciation of the treaty and it's consequent laps ing on Jan. l, 1914, Is true in so far that this Government will not take the initiative in 1evying the maximum tariff rates on Russian products. The tariff act gives the President no au- thority to impose the maximum. save on account of commercial discrinins- u9n It is understood, however, that a tariff war may result from the ab- rogatfon of the treaty. RuSsia's tar if laws provide a general tariff which is the maximum-and give low abrogation of the treaty it Is feared that automatically American goods will meet the Russian maximum, and In that case the American maximum would also be applied.
 At the State Department 1t is said that there is no change in the situa- ton.
