THE COUNTRY PAPER.
The weekly country newspaper aa
an Institution Is by no means declin
ing. If one may judge by the evi
dence of the recent newspaper direc
tories. it never flourished so much as
at present. It has a character of Its
own. Its place cannot be filled by any
metropolitan publication. It Is the In
timate friend of Its constituents. Its
angle of ris.ons Is that of its own
community, and this It truly reflects.
Broad questions ? state, national. In
ternational ? it presents and considers
as a part of its work of information,
but these are subordinate to its own
peculiar mission. The uprising in the
Balkans the breach in tho British
Ministry, the scandals of tha postal
ecrrlce at Washington, are dwarfed in
actual, present importance by tho
washout on tho State road or the pro
ject for a new trolley connection. And
these, indeed, are the real living con
cerns of social life. It is the home
matters that make up existence, and
with these the country newspaper
deals.
We do not sufficiently recognize,
perhaps, how great an influence for
the preservation of that spirit of local
self-government, which Is the founda
tion of our institutions, the country
press has been and is today. It is un
questionably a power and retains this
influence because of the sturdy hon
esty of tho country editor. The coun
try press is the ideal of independence.
It is. as a rule, unpurchasable and in
corruptible.
Tho country newspaper has its
place, from which nothing can dis
lodge it ? no quick delivery of metro
politan dailies, no fascinating pictori
als. And we are glad to see indica
tions of the growth and prosperity of
this product and aid of local enter
prise and local pride. ? Maryville

Masquerades in Man's Clothes for

For half a century Catherine
Coombes, a woman 68 years of age,
has been masquerading as a man.
At the age of 15 she was married
as a woman to a man named Percival

male attire.
Sho called herself Charles Wilson,
and her sex was not suspected even
when she worked on board ship in
close companionship with men.
She has been a painter and deco
rator, and now claims that as her
trade. She has labored as a docker,
and done a job, still wearing trousers,
at a printing offlcc.
As a man, she married a woman
with whom she lived for fourteen
years at Huddcrsfleld.
Four yearB ago she astonished the

>!?????>. ui In
Bkookltn, N. Y.? Th? Bit. Edward
Huntting Rudd, pastor of the Vint Coif
gregational Church, Dedham, Mam.,
preached Sunday morning in tho Tomp
kina Avenue Congregational Church to ?
large audience. Ilia subject was "Free
dom in Christ," and the text was from
John ii.: 13 and 14: "But aa mai.y aa
received Him to them gave He the right
to become children of God, ewn to them
that believe on Hie name, who were born
not of blood nor of the will of the flesh
nor of the will ol man, but of God." Mr.
Rndd aaid:
Can I do as I please? Or must I will to
do as another pleases? Am I a free agent
or are limitations placed upon me? Is lib
erty unrestrained freed em. or sm 1 the
more truly free when my actions and
word* are controlled by divine taws, im
posed wj'lir^lr upon man by his own en
lightened ae!f?
To answer these questions intelligently,
clearly and helpfully takea us at once into
that neld of Christian aeciolegy and of the
interrelation of man with man and of man
with hia God which ao engage* the atten
tion of men everywhere today. The place
and duty of the church is verjr clear. It
is to shew men in the spirit of enndor, of
sympathy, of open mindedness, of toler
ance, that the word of God gives us great
elemental teachings by a master thinker
and rcasoner. who waa divine and who
claims the light to influence men. The so
called great problems of labor and capital
will find a permanent solution only by
the arbitrament of the Man of Galilee.
But it is your duty and mine to remind
ourselves and others that according as we
square ourselves with the requirements of
God in Christ shall the problems of life
be met and he grappled and worth while
results be achieved.
We arc here to-day to ask entrance into
the light. We are here to know more
truth, so that truth may make us fr?e.
We long to know how to be happily and
contentedly free. To have our freedom
so used. that everywhere men shall recog
nize it as the article they wish, and, pos
sessing it with us, we shall together make
men strong. Bearing one another's bur
dens we shall surely fulfill in part the law
of Christ. The gospel cf St. John, sim
ple yet profound, snows us how to gain
freedom in Christ. It reminds us what is
so necessary to recall in this easy going,
non-thinking age, viz., that in no real nnd
permanent sense arc men children 'of God
until Christ has made tbom such by vital
union with Him. 'Hint we have no richt
to call ourselves children until Cod Him
self transfers that right to us by an act of
will and obedience on our part, so recog
nized by Christ, who has in the very pro
cess of our obedience done His part. To
claim the friendship of another is not to
)>os8css it. To eay of Christ nnd our rela
tions to Him, a* we say of some well
known people, "Oh, ye* , I know Him well;
He is a warm personal friend," when in
reality little more than a formal introduc
tion has been given, is in essence to know
only about Him. and that^ in a formal
sense, instead of being divinely commis
sioned by the living holy spirit of God
to be a child of God" nnd an heir with
Christ to eternal life. Manifestly, then,
this is an important matter to us all ?
even to the careless, thoughtless ones who
make up a part of every audience. Have
we any right to call ouroclves "children
of God?" And if we have, what has Cod,
by His regenerating spirit, done in us?
It was our New England poet, Lowell,
who said:
The thing we lone for? thai wc are
For one transcendent moment.
But even the poet faila to be true to
fact unless we have such a definite, genu
ine faith in God's power and willingness
to give us Himself and t) make us sons
and daughters of the living God. that we
rcccivc Him and by that act avail of Him
as our Saviour not only for ono transcend
ent moment, but for all the momenta for
the rest of time, nnd in that act we are
born of God, and by that act we nro
given the right to become ? aye, to be be
gotten as children of God.
Almost immediately in tliie cnblime.
/cholarly nnd heart searching gospc] of
John, that great dhciple, speaking the
words of Christ Himself, begins bv divid
ing mankind into the cams two division*
which are represented in thirf audicneo,
nnd in every audience, viz., those who
have received Ilim and those who, though
they wer3 His own by creation, received
Him not. by a reacncratin-; faith. And I
want just not.*, if possible, to avoid ab
struse, in os) covered theological terms nnd
phraseology, and t-> clothe these burning
usees in simp'.e, clear B'hle language, but
none the lesn to remind ourselves that
many of r.s are longing to get out into the
open sky, in some of tho old fashioned,
recessary doctrinc3 of the word of God.
Wc have potlen COmo of tlio choicest and
mo.it cnsential cta'-cnicnts of divine truth
beclouded, r.nd wo are not quito sure
v/hcre wc nre. May Cod's spi-it enlight
en and nl'ay doubt and uncertainty on
these truth.! this day, * .d allign us all
in tho comforting strength of Hia own
ajaship. A'.d I frankly believe, my broth
er man, w.*? cannot b? satisfied in this sub
lime hour by turning to the poets, much as
they will uplift and rest U3. Even luougli
you turn to Emtvcon, who has been so ex
alted and alriost deified by some in New
England Unitaria.iisr.i and ask him about
man, a; d in one place he will tell you:
"A man i.? tlia whole encyclopedia of facts.
The creation of a tliotmnd forests is in
one r.corn, u.id Ejypt, Greece. Rome,
Caul, Britain, Anerica, lie folded already
in tho first nir.n." Yes, potentiality lies
cnfo.dcd, but r.aug'.it else can bring it to
fur'ace and to living power save the touch
of Christ the Redeemer of Manhood. Nor
('ocz t'.io statement of Carlylo satisfy me,
for you recall i;? his essay on "character
istic.}," lie pays: "Man stands in the cen
tre of nature; his fraction of time encir
clcd by ctenity, his handbreadth of space
encircled by infinitude." I sky this can
not satisfy you, for you long to know how
you can best live and expand, while you
are ir? thh "centre of nature," nnd where
and how you ate to spend eternity. And
you turn t9 that beautifully human and
real pott, Robert Burns, and remember
wil.h liim "Tliat man's a man for a' that,"
and here you feel that you may be argu
ing in a circle, nnd if Burns had only
known more of the Man of Calvary, he
would have been paved many of the sins
which blighted his whole life. Or you
nay stand with that dear English poet,
Gray, as from afar ho beholds Kton Col
lege nnd exclaims, "Ah, tell them they are
men," and those words and this poet's
longing, more nearly voice your own soul's
wish, and you add. "Ah, tell them of tho
Man. who became flesh and dwelt among
us, that lie might redeem meu for Him
self." It in to this Incarnate word that
wc must turn if wc arc to be enlightened
nnd satisfied. And few passages in God's
word speak out more hope nnd immediate
blessing than the text: "As many as re
ceived Him. to them aave He the riixht
to become children of Clod."
Cut some one asks, what is the process
hy which thin in done? And I reply in
the continuing words of thin same verse:
"liven to them that believe on His name."
Rut what i? it to believe on Hi* name?
What is faith? And we reply with Bux
ton: "Faith is the filial, trustful relation,
which the whole man, intellect, heart and
will, sustains toward the l^ord .fernis
Christ." Christ said , to His disciples,
"Come ye alter Me, and I will make you
ishera of men." They obeyed. Heart
intellect and will accented and believed
Christ to have tho riant and the power
.to communicate to them "sonship" of
Rod. Disciples of Him who walked nmonn
them as their Redeemer. And when they
had given Him that simple confidence and
proved it openly by obedience to llis com
mand of public confession of His claim,
jtlad and willing to be known n? His fol
lowers and co-workers, at that moment
'vere they given the right to be the chil
dren of Cod. Then were they born not
if b'ood. nor of the will of tho flesh, nor
?f the will of man, but of Cod. The gen
oneness of their faith and sonship was
??tested in various wavs. To them snlva

Yon recoil the ni?Uac words of Christ
?peaking to t)? inMBeetnal failure* of tbo
Pherieeee, in Mtttkw n: 8: "This peo
ple honoreth Me witb their lips, but their
tout is far from Mo. Bnt in rain they do
worship Me, tcoehPI for doctrino the
commandments of lotn." And again,
when He was spcaktng to this mme aris
tocracy of the intellect and sticklers fo?
the strict letter of the low. He said: "And
why coll ye me Loid! Lord! and do not
the things which I say?* Manifestly,
then, Christ was cagey that men should
fire honest, hearty assent to His claims
of diocipleship. Ho then promised poten
tial freedom, personal liberty. ' But the
mere exercise of faith was not enough.
Christianity is something larger and finer
than even the genuine exercise of faith
in the person and work of Christ.
Faith unfolds itself in many forms of
Christian experience and activity, all of
which are embraced in "repentance,
growth and oerrioe." When St. Paul
wrote to that little band of men at Ephe
sus. who had exercised their faith in the
personal Christ, he bode them "rrow un
in all thing* into Him, who is the head
even Christ." But lest there may be some
among us this morning who, in thinking
this whole matter over, do not find it so
difficult to believe this Divine Son of
God. but who do not Quite appreciate the
relation of a man to nio sin, to nis fail
ures, his deliberate acts of wrong and evil,
is it necessary to repent? And what is
repentencc? "Exceot ye repent." cried
John the Baptist. Manifestlv it is ncccs
sary. And what is it? "It is a deep
change of the entire thinking, feeling and
willing man; and involves as its elements
enlightenment, contrition and confession,
prayer for pardon and pcace, counting the
cost and endeavor after new obcilienco."
Look at these for a moment. Enlighten
ment! This is the work of the Holy
Ghost. It was not until the prodigal son
came to himself that he started on that
wondrous pathway to lifeless blessing.
Enlightenment as to his own folly snd
sin and consciousness that a father's love
awaited his return. My brother, if some
things are uncertain, pray for enlighten
ment and who in the same chapter
proclaimed Himself to be the light of
men will reveal the path to contrition
nnd confession. "I have sinned against
heaven and in Thy sight" was a life giv
ing confession and prayer. It showed
that faith in the Father's love was sorry
nnd ashamed for its past ingratitude. In
that heart cry for pardon was the soul's
rceciving Christ, and because He received,
he had the right to be n son of God. Man
repented and God by His divine act re
generated.
There nre others here to-day who will
ndmit the truth of much thnt I say, but
in whom and about whom there nre ob
stacles which you have not the courage
nnd the determined patience to ovcrcomc.
Some of these obstacles arc the nowcr of
sin in the soul, for. like St. Paul of old,
you find a law that "when vou do good
evil is present;" a false pride in one's
own personality and achievement, foi
there arc not a few of u*. with "I thank
Thee that I am not #? other men nre"
tendencies; the environment of worldly
interests nnd friendships, and the insin
cerity of many professing Christians. Ah.
how manv of us docs this latter include?
Nevertheless, not a few arc enabled to
rise above these obstacles and become sons
of God.
Again I. ask the initial question of thio
message, can I do as I please? Or must
I do ns another pleases: And 1 believe
an honest study of the New Testament
will show us that the onlv freedom which
is comprehensive is the freedom nnd lib
erty which God gives to our whole nature
when we have accepted or received Hi*
Son Jesus Christ to be our Redeemer and
Master. May you this day. mv earnest,
seeking friends, find the Christ whose
sacrificial love, represented in this atouinp
blood, and receiving Him by faith, be
called children of God. nnd if children,
then heirs, heirs of God and joint heir*
with Christ, if ao be that wc suffer with
Him, that we may be also glorified to
gether.

"Paint me a picture," said n great mas
ter to his favorite pupil. "Paint me s
picture," _ said the student. "I cannot
paint a picture worthy of such a master."
But do it for mv sake? for my sake," wa?
the response. The student went to hia
task, and after many months of labor he
returned to the master nnd said. "Come
and see." When the curtain fell, the
greatest picture of the age was before
them, "The Last Supper," of Leonardo da
Vinci.
"Paint Me a picture," says the Divine
Master to every Christian worker in this
community. Do not sny that you cannot,
for His aid is promised you. "Paint Me a
picture of consecrated service; do it for
My sake." And in the coming time, when
wc walk the corridors of the immortal,
perchance we shall see on its jasper walli
our pictures of consecrated efforts, which
shall be to the honor of that name which
is forever bc<*#.. because it shall have been
"for His sake."
Have Faith In God.
Phillips Brooks declared we should
r.trive to see the lovin.i hand of God in
every trial nnd sorrow. He once expressed
this thought in the following dialogue:
"What shall I do with this sorrow that
God has sent me?" "Take it up nnd btnr
it, nnd get a strength nnd blessing out of
it."' "Ah. if I only knew what bles?ine ,
there was in it, if I only saw hov/ it woulu j
help me, then 1 could bear it like a plume!"
"What shall I do with this hard, hateful
duty which Christ has laid right in juv
way?" "Do it, nnd grow by doing it.
"Ah, yes; if I could only see that it would
make me grow!" In both these cases do
you not see thnt what you are begaing for
is not more fjiith, although you think it
is. hut sight? You want to see for your
se.V tiie blessing in the sorrow, the strength
in the hard and hateful tank. Faith say*
not. "I see that it is good for me. and so
God must have sent it," hut "God sent it,
and so it must be good for me."
Little Aid on the Streets.
A religious man can receive hut little
help in regard to his religion on the public
streets to-day because everybody is rush

little is thought of their church and God.
The streets nre pure, but some of the peo
ple who walk upon them are the ones that

It to commonly ? po? 4 that ua
ma die only one*, but ?a old Russian
Himt. mm4 Btuonoff, who ex
ptnd neratly la the Tillage of Lot
mfcto, at tho ace of 95. held a differ
ent opinion, boasting that he had been
lead twice and had come to life again.
Hla first demise took place during
the siege of Sebastopol. when he waa
IS. He waa struck by a fragment of
ihell. picked up for desd. and thrown
?n a heap of corpses awaiting burial.
Alter three days he regained his
?enses. managed to free himself from
the bodies which had meantime ac
cumulated on top of fetm, crawled to
the hospital, and was ultlmstely
cured.
In 1879, having reached the allotted
l pan. he died once more, this tlmo
suddenly In his bed. Arrangements
were made for tho funeral, but four
lays after his decease he sat up in
bed and clamored for a pipe. His
fleath certificates were proudly treas
ured, and serred to convince him that
he had actually expired on two occa
sions. He fell into a rage at the least
suggestion of a trance or lethargy.

die for the third time, he received the
oews with unconcern, hoping, in spite
of his great age, to revive once mora
This hope, however, was baseless, al
though every possible test was applied
before burial.
