Faith Cure, !:

+ =
appeared in different forms since there
is any record Of the human race. II
: requires a man Of an almost doggetl
faith to be cured by it, though. The
formula is simple: Only have enough
faith and you can be cnred Of any hu-
man i'll. If you are not cured it is
because you haven't enough faith.
One of the most usual forms of faith
cure is by the laying on of hands. You
have rheumatism in the shoulder. You
visit doctor who practices that sys-
tenn. He lays his hands on the afflicted
part, you feel better or think you do,
and then he lays his hands on your
pocket book for all you've got If
your faith begins to wavcr after. this
experience, the pains will probably re-
turn, but your money won't. You
must not give up faith, whatever else
you lose.
Healing mediums can be found every
where. How we'll they are healed de-
ponds On how many fools they can en-
tice into their net. They cali themselves
healers, and practice all over the coun.
try. They differ somewhat from the
ward ''heeler," who practices chiefly at
the polls.
The first thing a quack does when he
opens an Office for the practice of the
faith cure, is to lay in a good stock of
old crutches, canes, splints, &C., which
he exhibits to the wondering public,
claiming that they have been left behind
by his patients who had no further use
for them after one operation. Men
hobble in on crutches, he says, who
haven't been able to get about in any
other way for years. He makes a few
passes over them with his hands, they
exercise their faith, and, presto, the
lameness is gone. They fling away
in,ielr crutches and start for home on a.
run.
We interviewed a man once who had
Invested considerable sum of money
in the mind cure, which doesn't differ
very much from the faith cure. About
the same amount of mind is required
in the one as in the other.
"Were you cured?' we asked.
Il was"

eyes, I was perfectly cured, of my
desire to be humbugged again. I am
lame yet, as you see, but I think my
mind is more sprightly and athletic
Brigham Young used to practice the
faith Care A con6ding Mormon WHO
rad lost leg in a brave but Intellectual
struggle with a thrcshng machine, not
being able to secure a pension at Wash
ington, came to Brigham in the firm be-
lief that he was able to make another
leg grow from the stump and requested
him to do so. He desired him to graft
on one of the early blooming variety,
so that it would be ready for his spring
blowing. This proposition put Brigham
to his stun1ps for a moment, but he
was equal to this emergency, as he had
been for many others, even when they
came in the shape Of twins.
Il could do it, of course,' said Brig
ham, with cereless wave of the nand,
"but how awkward you would feel on
the day of resurrection, getting around
on three legs"
Getting around on three legs?''
"Certainly. The old leg would rise
up with the new one and insist on coup.

The Mormon concluded he would try
to stump along on what he had until

/ An eastern journal complains that
the base ball situation is becoming so
demoralized that it is impossible to
tell when an honest game is played,
and it is broadly asserted that boat
races, and even agricultural boss
trots," are often tainted with fraud.

member of the Young Mems Christian
Association yesterday.
"How May we're converted?"
"FTom the time Moody aud Sankey
came until Towner and SsyioTd de-
parted this morning the number OF
converts reached about 400. The

Join some church. The seeds are
scattered broadcast. Some of them
will rot in the ground; others will
spring up and flourish and bear
flower and fruit. II will take
some nursing, perhaps, but the Q

The cost of fitting up the Cumberland
