DR. M’3!FFERT iS ANOTHER UNION
' SE’Vl NARY HERITIC.
He Has t'i‘itten a. Book in Which His
Ideas oi the Lord’s Supper and Substi-
tutimmrv Nature Sacrifice Materially
Conflict. “’ith \Vestmlnster Confession.
Another heresy trial in the Presby-
) terian Church and one that will be as
[sensational as were those of Dr. Chas.
‘A. Briggs and Dr. Henry Preserved
)Smith is threatened. The man whose
Presbyterianism is questioned- is Dr.
Arthur Cushman McGiffert, professor
. of church history in the Union Theolog-
ical Seminary. His new book, ’th His-
tory of Christianity in the Apostolic
Age," is said to conflict with the West-
minster Confession of Faith, the Larger
Catechism and all other declarations of
the church.
Dr. McGiffert’s book was published in
the International Theological Series,
edited by Professor Briggs. From a lit-
erary and scholarly poirrt of View it is
said to be of great merit, but it is want-
ing in orthodoxy as defined by some of
his critics. ,
p The first and only woman allowed to
practice in a Supreme Court in British
dominions is Miss Ethel R. Benjamin,
who last year graduated frOm Otaga
University at the head of her class in
every branch of the law. The New
Zealand courts immediately admitted
her to the bar, although in Great Brit-
ain and British possessions there is a
prejudice or conservatism that has pre-
vented any other woman from being
thus honored.
DR. M'GLFFERT.
That point which has aroused .the
most criticism is Dr. McGiffert’s discus-
sion of the Last Supper of Jesus with
His disciples. On this point the confes-
sion says:
“Our Lord, Jesus, in the night
wherein He was betrayed, insti-
tuted the sacrament of His
body and blood, called the Lord’s
supper, to be observedin His Church
unto the end of the world for the per-
petual remembrance of the sacrifice of
Himself in His death,” etc. (Ch. xxx,
p. 108.)
This incident is thus presented by
Professor McGiffert:
“The fact must be recognized that it is
not absolutely certain that Jesus Him-
self actually instituted such a supper,
and directed His disciples to eat and
drink in remembrance of Him (as Paul
says in I. Cor. xi., 24, 25). Expecting,
as he did, to return at an early date
(of. Mark xiv.,' 25). He can hardly have
been solicitlous to provide for the pres-
ervation of His memory."
The professor points out here that the
words, “This do in remembrance of
Me,” are not in the gospels, though
quoted by St. Paul.
“It was apparently not the institu-
tion of a memorial feast that He had in
mind as much as the announcement of
His impending death and the assurance
that it would result not in evil but in
good to His disciples. * * * He was
simply foretelling His death and en-
deavoring to impart to His disciples
something of that divine trust and
calmness with which he approached it.
But (this is vitally significant for the
sacramental character of the supper)
after His death, when His followers ate
bread and drank wine together they
could not fail to recall the solemn mo-
ment in which Jesus had broken bread
in their presence, and with reference to
His impending death, had pronounced
the bread His body and the wine His
blood: and, remembering that scene,
their eating and drinking together must
inevitably whether with or without a
command from Him, take on the char-
acter of a memorial feast, in which
they looked back to His death as He
had looked forward to it.
They knew that they were fulfilling
His wish in thus gathering in brotherly
fellowship, and they must have felt
from the beginning, whether they had
His explicit command for it or not, that
they were only doing what He would
reassuring words for their own com-
fort and in fond remembrance of their
Master. . '
The difference is that Dr. McGiffert
does not agree with the confession in
the way in which Jesus instituted the
Lord‘s supper. The professor believes
that they did not institute it formally
by explicit injunction. although that is
exactly what the confession asserts. Dr.
McGiffert attaches a spiritual and me-
morial significance to the sacrament,
but does not believe that Christ said:
“This do in remembrance of Me.”
Another vital point upon which Dr.
McGifi‘ert disagrees with the confession
is'on the substitutionary nature of
Christ's sacrifice. This he makes clear
in his exposition of St. Paul's teach—
ings when He says: f
To have believed that the work of
Christ was only substitutionary in its
significance. that He died merely as a
sacrifice by virtue of which other men
him, by binding him
have them do when they repeated His '
hthough sinful, might be relieved of
death, the penalty of their sin: to have
believed that there was only an arbi-
trary and forensic connection between
the work of Christ and the salvation of
men, would have been to do violence to
His most sacred convictions, and to run
counter to all his religious experience.
Another man of less vigorous character
* * * might have believed that God
in virtue of a. merely substitu—
tionary sacrifice of 'Christ could pro-
nounce a. sinful man righteous (i. e.,
“justify him”), but Paul could not.”
“Christ saves a man,” he says, “by en-
tering and taking up His abode within
indissolubly to
Himself, so that it is no longer he that
lives, but "Christ that lives in him; so
that whatever Christ does he does, and
whatever he does Christ does. Out of
the revelation of the Son of God within
£==l==k
him wasborn the conviction to which
he gave such constant expression, that
Christ had redeemed him by making
him completely one with Himself. God
saves him, not merely by accounting
him righteous and declaring him re-
leased from the penalty of death, but
by giving him the divine spirit. * * *
[t is righteousness not imputed but im-
parted to man, and imparted just be-
cause the divine nature or spirit, which
is itself righteous, is imparted to him.
This is vitally different from the cen-
fession’s doctrine, that the sacrifice
which Christ made of Himself supplied
the demand of divine justice, and that
those who accept .the provision are
“justified,” or pronounced righteous.
Perhaps one cause of the criticism of
Dr. McGiffert is that he does not be-
lieve in the inerrancy of the Scriptures.
believing with Dr. Briggs and other of
the “higher critics.” _
If the charge of heresy is formally
brought against Dr. McGiffert he will
assert that he is right in his views. He
will also assert the right to higher crit—
icism, outside of the majority'of au-
thority in the church, both ancient and
modern, relying on the accepted Scrip-
tures, which he will declare the right to
read according to modern reason and
under the light of knowledge accumu-
lated since the adoption of the VVest-
minster confession.“
His contention will also be that the
church should welcome criticism, to
show that it is able to withstand it.
DIMPLES MADE TO ORDER.
A New York Daiusel Who Was Dissap-
pointed in the Manufactured Article.
A special dispatch from New York
brings the interesting information that
a young woman of that city has sued a.
“beauty institute” for $50,000 damages
because the professional beautifier de-
manded and received $300 of her money
and failed to make her beautiful in re-
turn for the investment.
Beauty is said to be only skin deep,
but it apparently is considered deeper
than that in New York. The plaintiff
in the action referred to wanted dim-
ples in her cheeks and paid for them.
The defendant performed a surgical op-
eration. cut the facial muscles and pro-
duced two dimples. But, alas, they do
not show when their owner smiles!
Her petition sets forth the fact that
wheneVer she really wants to display
these dimples they disappear entirely.
On the other hand, whenever her face
should be in repose those artificial dim-
ples draw up the mouth into an invol-
untary smile. And so it happens that
whenever she is happy her face be-
comes as solemn as the visage of a. pro-
fessional mourner, but when she is sad
or resentful or angry her smile is warm
enough to melt ice two blocks away.
It is a sad case, but the damages
have been set entirely too low. Any
man who wrecks a. woman’s cheeks and
makes her "go through life the living
embodiment of facial false pretenses
might consider himself lucky to escape
with a verdict for a. million dollars
damages. ’__—

terrible and destructive vessel of war
than the Terror, in spite of the Puri-
tan's peace-suggesting name. The Ter-
ror does not displace 4,000 tons of wa-
ter. The Puritan displaces 6,000. ’
This tonnage is that of a. second—class
battle ship, but the Puritan is not. pre-
cisely a battle ship in the sense in
PURITAN.

The Puritan. like her sister ships, is
a floating fort. She has two turrets,
instead of one, and can hurl a. most de-
structive charge at an enemy. She car-
ries 12~inch guns in her turret, instead
of the ill-inch guns of the Terror. There
is: no ship of her kind on water that
can compare with the Puritan for fight-
:ng ability or for tonnage.

once interfered cruelly with some most
interesting piscatorial domestic econo-
my in a stream on the estate of an
English gentleman where I was over—
seer of the game and fish preserves.
“One day I discovered a pair of sal-
mon on their spawning ground and
speared the male.- The "female s-hov'ved
some little agitation, but soon recover-
ed, and presently went hurriedly down
stream. .. _
“ ‘Another prospective salmon fam-
ily made food for hungry foes,’ thought
I, for I supposed the female had aban-
doned the nest. ‘
“But I was mistaken. She was gone
only a few minutes, and then she re~
turned in company with a splendid
specimen of a salmon of the
sterner sex. He stepped right in-
to the shoes of his predeces-
sor, so to speak, and was as tender,
devoted, and watchful as ever the first
husband had been. This exhibition of
inconstaney on the part of the female
blunted the sympathy I might have
had for her' over the taking off of her
first mate, and I destroyed her new fe-
licity by spearing her second husband.
He wasn’t out of the water a minute
before that female salmon, the second
time a widow, dashed down the stream
again, and in less than ten minutes
came back with a third husband. He
started in as proud as the other. two
had been, and was even spoonier than
they, if that were possible. I speared
the third husband. The widow in-
stantly went away and got a fourth.
Five times I bereft her of her mate. I
don’t know Whether the supply of un-
mated salmon had then'run out or not,
but on her sixth venture she returned
home with a. big, handsome yellow
trout as her consort. He seemed fully
as devoted to her as any of her hus-
bands had been, and perhaps all would
have been well if I had left her to her
new love. But the conduct rather net-
tled me, and I enlarged the tragedy by
spearing her. The big yellow trout dart-
ed away to the middle of the stream but
after I had lifted the often-widowed
salmon from the water he returned to
the nest, glanced over it a moment,
then deliberately devoured its eggs,
and sailed away down stream.”——-—Chica-

TATTOOING MADE EASY.
Not So Painful as It Used to be—W’ork Ac-
complished by a Little Machine.
Since a certain English Prince re-
turned from his trip around the world
with a choice selection of oriental de-
signs in scarlet and black pricked into
his skin, tattooing has become the
vogue in fashionable circles. Former-
ly, a man had to go to the far- East to
find the first masters of the tattooing
art, many of whose productions were
most elaborate and artistic, and the
possession of a few square inches of
their best work was looked upon as an
enviable distinction of the traveled
man of the world. Now, any one can
have the epidermis disfigured as lavish-
ly as he wishes at home, and the opera-
tion, which used to be exceedingly
painful, is accomplished with compara-
tively little suffering to the person
tattooed. An American, who had pick-
ed up all the tricks of the trade in Ja-
pan, turned it to account on his re-
turn in the manufacture of museum
freaks.
and he set his wits to work on an elec-
tric tattooing machine. This has been
completed, and the “professor" now
stippies in his weird designs “While
you wait.” The subject to be operated
upon makes a choice of designs from a
scrap book. or suggests an original
theme, or even a portrait. The opera-
tor draws the design on celluloid'with
a stylus. This is inked and applied to
the skin, on which the imprint is left.
Over these lines, one or more needles,
connected to an electric motor, are
made to work rapidly with an action
similar to that of a dental plugger. In
a few minutes, the work of pricking in
is done, a wash is put over the part to
minimize the pain of the incident in-
flammation, and the “professor” has
earned his fee. To each machine there
is a set of attachments carrying rows
and bunches of needles—from five to
fifty—for economizing time where
. broad ettects are needed.
Collections and Otto-rings.
I went to churchnot long ago, says
a writer in the Albany Journal, and
heard the following tale given in ex-
planation of the words “collection”
and “offering,” and the difference be-
tween them.
A certain small boy had a dog which
he had named Fido. The boy was very
fond of Fido. One day at dinner ’the
boy’s father noticed him. taking the
best of the portion of roast beef which
had fallen'to his lot and placing it on
another plate. Upon inquiry the fath-
er learned that the meat was for the
dog,.‘Fido. .“My son,” said papa, “it
would be better if you ate that meat
yourself and gave Fldo some of the
scraps which are left.” The boy pro-
tested, but the father was obdurate.
At the conclusion of the meal the boy
took out to Fido a plate heaped with
scraps of the roast. “Here, Fido,”
said the boy, “I wanted to make you
an offering, but here is only a collec-
tion.”

Gold dollars are very scarce and are
at a premium. But that their value
is sometimes overestimated was evi-
denced recently on Third street. A
consignment of 100 of the tiny pieces
was received from the country with
the request to the person to wnom
they were consigned that he see what
could be gotten for them. When the
matter was discussed it was thought
by some that they would bring as
much as $2.50 apiece. A round of the
banks was made, and the best bid
made for the lot was $1.25 for each
good coin. The banks are not allowed
to charge a premium on any gold or
other coin, 'but the attaches usually
keep a number of the various «scarce
coins on hand for the accommodation
of patrons. The best price obtained
by them for a gold dollar is $1.50. The
$3 pieces bring as high as $5.—Cincin-
