THE FUNDAMENTALS OF TRUE RELIGION SERMON BY REV. CHARLES M. OIFFZN LAST MIGHT. Took its His Theme "The Three R's" of Religion, Which He Said Were Regret, Reformation and Restitution, All of Which, if Prac ticed, or Experienced by. the True Searcher After Truth, Will Lead Him to That Greatest R. of All, Repentance. Rev. Charles M. CllfTIn, D. P., pastor of tho Elm Park Methodist Episcopal church, preached a sermon laBt even ing that may fittingly bo termed both musterly and impressive, taklus as bis theme "The Thrco It's." He spoke in part ns follows: "In elementary education there nro always certain well recognized funda mental essentials without a knowlode of which no one can expect to attain to tho higher realms of education. The Yankee used to facetiously call them 'The three R's'. When we think of our moral relations there arc also three It's we must master if we would be successful and it is of these that I would speak to you tonight. "The llrst of these Is Regret. When I speak of regret I do not wuit to to understood as confounding it wllh re morse, which Is ciulto anotlnr thine.. Theio ore times In cverv nnnV life self-reproachful of himself for tho sins he has committed, but if this Is only a dissatisfaction and it he doesn't de termine to do better, it doesn't amount to much. "Wo all know that it is tho trend of the times to gloss over Iniquity. What were formerly a man's mis deeds are now calmly spoken of by him as his misfortunes. Some people suppose that all God wants of them Is that they may say complacently that they suppose they are not up to tho proper ideal of excellence. ANOTHER, CONDITION. "Then, there's another condition which Isn't regret. That's the refrain ing from doing a thing because you're afraid of being seen doing it. There is a certain man in this city today who would not go Into a certain court If he knew that the pastor of Elm Park church knew that he went there. But If he refrained from going there on that account would that make his net a Christian one? Undoubtedly, It would not. "There's another point. Don't con found regret with inortlllcatlon. True contrition comes from a deeper source than docs mortification; It conic? from the very soul. The truly penitent soul would weep If it knew there was no hell. When a man sees hi3 mis-spent life in nil tho horror of Its debase ment; when he has experienced tho right hand of regret, then he is ready for the second step, and that is Refor mation. "There is many a man who is re penting over his tins but who won't stop Binning. When a man is truly sick of sin he can't stick to it. 'Let tho wicked forsake the way of sin. Let them step out into tho new life and let them stay there. Tho old Puritan who said, 'the man who truly repents would rather die than sin again,' may have been severe, but he was right. "People sometimes reform In sec tions. They stop one sin and aggravate another. They don't intend, as they should, to circle round all their iniqui ties end clean out the whole Infernal lot. THE THIRD R. "The third R. is Restitution. There are so many who hnve taken away so much that they can't put it back. The penitent always wants to do nil he can to right the wrongs ho ha done. But what of those who have done damage that can never be repulrcd? "I often think of an incident In tho life of that most delightful character in English letter?, Samuel Johnson. When Samuel was a little boy his father asked him to tend the market stall he kept and Sam s.ildf 'No.' Again he asked him and again ho re ceived the answer, 'No.' Years after wards when Johnson had reached the height of his fame, he came to the old stall on the market day ono year nnd stood for hours with uncovered head in the place where his father's stall had (jtood. 'This is mv contrition,' said he, 'for refusing1 to obey my father.' That's all very well, but what of tho father's bleeding heart? "If wo master tho three R.'s as they should bo mastered we come to faith, which we can't have without the help of God. And with God's help wo come to that greatest It. of all, Re pentance, which mak03 us true heirs of eternal life." RELIGIOUS NEWS NOTES. Rev. J.

STATE SECRETARY HERE. Address of E. B. Buckalcw, of Har risburg, at the Afternoon Meet ing of the Y. M. C. A. E. B. Buckalcw, of Ilarrlsburg, the state secretary of tho Young Men's Christian association, who is tn this city for tho purpose of assisting In the canvass for funds for the proposed new association building, spoke in the asso ciation's temporary headquarters yes terday before a very large number of men, both young and old. Mr. Buckalcw was formerly the local secretary at Wilkes-Barre, and is rather well-known In this city. There is a certain boyish frankness about what he says that makes the meetings at which he speaks most enjoyable. Ho gave yesterday nfternoon a singularly helpful address on "Temptations," and In beginning his remarks had this to say regarding the new building: I don't bcllevo that the people of this city nor tho young men who Intend Join ing tho association thoroughly under stand what this new building Is gdlng to mean for tho city. It's not going to merely give the young men a chance of gratifying their self-desires but it's go lug to give a larger opportunity for the Christian men of tho city than they have ever had to work among the un christian nnd the ungodly. It Is going to b a plant from which will radiate mlghCT' Influences for good which If properly applied will mean a vcrltnblo moral revolution for the city; Just such-a revolution as I am given to understand Its needs, as to say tho least conditions have certainly not Improved slnco the burning of tho old building. Every man in this city ought to seo to it that ho has a little sum invested in this new building, no matter how small it may be. Continuing, Mr. Buckalew spoko briefly, as mentioned above, on "Temp tatlon." Ho pointed out the fact that every temptation means a pivotal point in tho life of every man. "It means," said he, "whether his life is to be a weak, defeated one or a strong, vic torious one." After pointing out the various ways instituted by tho evil spirit for the tempting of the young man, he said that "the best way to guard against these temptations Is to be occupied with good; in fact, that's one of the greatest secrets of a true Christian life. There is too much activity of the brain and muscle in our modern Christian lives and too little prayer and soul saving." Referring to the "higher criticism," he said that "the higher critics are simply men being led by the devil to exalt their own reason and literary acumen above the word of God. If we blotted out with red ink the passages In the Bible that the higher critics have attacked there would be mighty little left." Secretary Buckalew wilt remain in the city for about two weeks, and will visit various parties in company wjth the soliciting committees. Secretary Mahy said yesterday that-the commit tees are meeting with very agrseabto success. They will meet on Tuesday evening at C o'clock in the rooms of the Scranton club, and after dinner the work so far done will be discussed and plans arranged for tho future. AN ECHO MEETING.
