PRIMARY TOPIC—Our Father's House.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Why We Should l/ovu
the Church.
INTKRMElflATE TOPIC—What th*
Church Does for Us and What Wo Should
Do for the Church.
SENIOR AND ADULT TOPIC-The
Spirit and Mission of the Church.
I. The Origin of the Church (Acts
2:1-4).
Fifty days after the pnssover, wlille
the 120 men und women were "with
one aceuril In one place" the Holy
Spirit came upon them and baptized
them into one body (I Cor. 12:1.1).
Thus was begun the body called the
church. The church had its beginning
at I'entacost. The believers wero
united around the resurrected Christ
ok head.
II. Conditions of Entrance Into
the Church (Acta 2:37-41).
After the coming of the Spirit at
Pentecost, Peter witnessed to the
death and resurrection of Christ.
Through this testimony the Spirit con-
victed these Jews of their sins. In
their desperate need they cried out:
"What shall we do?" Peter's reply
Indicated the steps Into the church.
(1) Relief in Jesus Clirist as Savior.
His argument proved that Jesus whom
they had crucified was the Messiah.
(2) Repentance. Every one entering
the- church should repent; should
change his mind and attitude toward
Jesus Christ.
('!) Re baptized. The divinely ap-
pointed method for the public confes-
sion of Jesus Christ Is baptism. Those
who have believed in Jesus Christ
should receive tills tangible ordinance,
which symbolizes our identification
with Christ In his death, burial and res-
urrection.
(4) Receive remission of sins. Those
who have been united to Jesus Christ
have all their sins removed; there is
an entire cancellation of guilt. They
hnve a standing before God which Is
absolutely perfect.
(ft) Receive the IToly Spirit. The gift
of the Holy Spirit is the birthright of
every regenerated soul who Is obedi-
eyt to Christ.
III. A Portrait of the Primitive
Church (Acts 2 :42-47).
1. They continued In the apostles'
doctrine (v. 42). Instead of being
taught by the scribes they are now
taught by the apostles. They have
turned away from their blind guides
and are following new ones.
2. They continued In fellowship
around Christ as the head (v. 42). The
breaking of bread illustrated the one-
ness of believers In Christ. As all
partook of one loaf, so all believers
are one In Christ.
3. They continued in prayer (v. 42).
The ideal church" Is a praying church.
4. They had a community of goods
(vv. 43-45). They had ail things in com-
mon. Those that had possessions sold
them and distribution was made to
every one as he had need.
5. They were filled with praise (v.
46). All those who have had the ex-
perience of the life of God being
poured Into them are filled with praise,
and gratitude must express itself.
IV. The Mutual Duties of Officers
and Members of the Church (I Thess.
5:11-15).
1. Mutual intercourse for comfort
and edification (v. 11). There Is no
caste in the church of Jesus Christ; it
Is a brotherhood.
2. Proper recognition should be
given to those who are engaged In
spiritual service (v. 12). Only as the
grace of God abounds do men and
women turn from their secular to spir-
itual Interests. Those who thus re-
spond to the call of God should have
popular recognition.
8. Proper respect should be given
to church officials (v. 13).
While we should not give worship
to those who are leaders In the church
of Christ we should give them proper
respect. One of the signs of t lie de-
generacy of the age Is a lack of re-
spect shown Christian ministers.
4. Live In peace (v. 13). Although
there Is In tho church a diversity of
Interests and personalities the love of
Christ should so fili us that there be
uo si l ife hi his bodj.
5. Warn the disorderly (v. 14). As
Christ chose twelve and one was a
devil, so In the church there will be
those who are disorderly. All such
should he lovingly warned.
6. Re not retallatlve (v. 15). Al-
though others wrong us we should not
retaliate.

Needlework and organdie arc com-
oatants for summer popularity, but
when they go hand in hand the resuli
is noticeable. This frock is of yellov*
organdie with rows of little yellow
garden roses embroidered on the skirt,
sleeves and vestee.
WAKE COOL LOOKING FROCKS
Silk and Cotton Voile Are Summery
in Appesrar.cs and Civs Pleasure
to Wearer.
Summer brings the usual demand
for cool looking dresses developed in
georgette, cotton and silk voile, ging-
lutui, swlss or chailis. The latter fab-
ric Is shown in very dainty patterns
and may be used to make serviceable
frocks of the semi-tailored type. Band's
of ribbon, pipings of satin and similar
trimming touches have the prefer-
ence. Many rows of stitching ulso are
used to good effect on chailis dresses.
Dresses of cotton voile are decided-
ly summery iu appearance, but not
quite so desirable for general wear
as those made of the lovely printed
silk voiles that are having such a
vogue this season. A frock of printed
silk voile may he used for either after-
noon of ovenlnpr, is generally becom-
ing, and a frock of this material is
rather Inexpensive, as no applied
| trimming is required. Often the foun-
dation for sucli a frock will be of
plain colored material, giving a pret-
ty note of, contrast. The sash or belt
may be of plain satin or taffeta.
The dotted swlss especially favored
tills season has background of black
or color with white dots. It is de-
cidedly effective.
Navy taffeta is holding its own In
the lineup of favored materials for
both dresses and suits.
Judging from some advance fall
frocks now coming over from Paris
there is an evident effort to popularize
the high collar. One model is of fine
wool jersey in a pretty shade of gray,
made to button close to the neck. The
inside of the collar, however, is faced
wijh a rich blue velvet, so that it may
be opened, forming a V neck and re-
vers.
The collarless neck Is so comfort-
able that all efforts to create a vogue
for high collared affairs have failed
for many seasons, and there is no
reason to believe that American wom-
en this year will be inclined to sacri-
fice comfort to a doubtful becoming
ness.

USEFUL ITEMS
Growth.
V Violent efforts to growth are right
In earnestness, but wholly wrong in
principle. There Is but one principle
of growth both for the natural and
spiritual. for body and soul. And the
principle of growing in grace Is once
more (his. "Consider the lilies how
they grow."
Take S«eond Look.

lieve In taking a aecond look.—p. Vln-
eent.
To Keep Motli From Drawers and
Cupboards.—Mix equal parts of oil of
cedar, oil of cajeput, and oil ot
cloves, dip a little piece of flannel in
it and rub the inside of the cupboard
or drawers wltli 11; ulso saturate small
pieces of blotting paper with it and
place amongst the furs or woolens. Of
course care must be taken that the
oil does not come in contact with any
dainty material that would easily
mark.
To Clean IJrown Shoes and Boots.—
Rub over with flannel dipped in methy-
lated spirit, then put on the boot
cream and leave all night, then polish
with a soft duster and a velvet pad.
Brown boots may be blackened b>
rubbing them lirst with cut raw po-
tato—go Into every crack and comer,
then rub well over with good black
hoot polish; rub It well in. Set aside
for a day, then rub blacking In, and
polish In usual way.
In severe paroxysms of coughing a
tablcspoonful of glycerin in a glass

Fashion has promised sateen a tre-
mendous success this season.

Sunshades Different in Way3 From
Predecessors ?.a io Materials of
Which They Are Made.
Tho fea.'her trimming which has
adorned dancing l'rocks all winter will
he seen during thu summer ga.vly wav-
ing along the edges of parasols. One
of the Imported models of very dark
bluw silk has a Belgian blue feather
edge running along In a pointed effect
of wavy curling tips. Of course it Is
unusual enough to cause the most
blase person to say, "Well, for good-
ness sake."
Still another model also of the deep
blue which we call midnight has a
narrow fringe of red uncurled ostrich
and this somehow does not seem so
Startling as tile curly feather for the
reason that we have often seen fringe
on parasols, and the uncurled ostrich
closely resembles fringe.
Parasols this summer are different
in many ways from their predeces-
sors, not as to their main character-
istics, for after all a parasol is a par*
asol and can only be of certain shapes,
hut as to the materials of which the,?
lire made. A very handsome one of
finest black net Is lined with soft black
chiffon. On the outside a hand of sil-
ver and black lace 12 inches deep goes
entirely around the outside in a flat
circle. This parasol is really beauti-
ful and makes one wonder why wo
have never seen things like it hefora.
The handles of all of these are of
dark, handsome wood with no carv-
ing, and the ribs and tips are of white
bone.
One seldom sees the long handles
which were so fashionable some sea-
sons ago, for the correct parasol of
the moment both for rain and sun is
rather short as to handle and shorter
as to tip. The new silks impervious to
any kind of weather are shown in love-
ly colors, so that It is possible to
match any costume. The smartest of
these little utility umbrellas have
leather loops through the handles and
b,v iiieuiis of n\ lilch they etui be car-
ried over the arm.
Velvet parasols are new enough to
cause comment, designed perhaps for
service with the newest of the sport
coats, which are at this moment being
made of velvet with collars aud revers
of white Angora wool. In fact almost
every material which has never been
used before is appearing in parasols
this season—chailis, organdie, cretonne
and llnene, though of course the lat-
ter two materials have been used year
after year.
Calomel Today! Sick Tomorrow!
i Guarantee Dodsori's Liver Tone
Don't take nasty, dangerous calomel when bilious,
constipated, headachy. Listen to me I
Calomel makes you sick; you lose a
day's work. Calomel is quicksilver
and it salivates; calomel Injures your
liver.
If you ure bilious, feel lazy, slug-
gish and all knocked out. If your bow-
els are constipated and your head
aches or stomach is sour, just take a
spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver
Tone instead of using sickening, sali-
vating calomel. Dodson's Liver Tone
Is reiil liver medicine. You'll know it
next morning because you will wake
up feeling fine, your liver will be work-
ing, your headache and dizziness gone,
your stomach will be sweet and bow-
els regular. Ynu will feel like work-
ing. You'll be cheerful; full of vigor
and ambition.
Your druggist or dealer sells you a
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tohe for a
few cents under my personal guaran-
tee that It will clean your sluggish
liver better than nasty calomel; it
won't make you sick and you can eat
anything you want without being sali-
vated. Your druggist guarantees that
each spoonful will start your liver,
clean your bowels, and straighten you
up by morning or you get your money
back. Children gladly take Dodson's
Liver Tone because It Is pleasant tast-
ing and doesn't gripe or cramp or
make them sick.
I am selling millions of bottles of
Dodson's Liver Tone to people who
have found that this pleasant, vege-
table liver medfeine takes the place of
dangerous calomel. Buy one bottle on
my sound, reliable guarantee. Ask
your druggist about me.—Adv.

THE REASON
I Why Vacher-Baim stops all kinds of
*paln and soreness so quickly is that It
stops inflammation, therefore nothing
gives quicker relief for Mumps, Head-
ache, Burns, etc. It also quickly re-
lieves Catarrh, and being, harmless
may be used internally.
