his death, his beneficiaries probably
would be very anxious to get the paper
to see whether his death was assessed
for, and when they would get their
money. 1t Is astonishing how very
indifferent some people are until they
or their family are interested In some
pecuDiary way. 1t is remarkable
fact in o i'd Fellowship that the mem
beers who attend their lodges regularly
never get sick; aud ninc-tsnths Of the
sick and funeral benefits are paid to
those who never are seen In the lodge
rooms.
We have an Idea that this Is some
tho exception when well-known and
constant worker receives benefits or
dies. The Iule lie. that those who draw
heavily upon the treasury are scarcely
known in the lodge room and have
never kept their obligation to advance
Its interests and mission. Not long

A REPUBLICAN reporter yesterday
afternoon had occasion to visit town
10 short distance from the city. While
waiting for tho train to return. he
witnessed an action on the part OF a
boy who sells sandwiches and fried
Ioysters on the train, which surprised
him. The boy was slovenly in his
movements and untidy in his dress.
He opened the three boxes of oysters
and moved the oysters around with
his fingers to count them.
He discovered that an oyster had
been taken out OF two boxes while he
had been down town taking in the
sights. He sold the boxes on the
train later In the afternoon. and IL the
parties who bought them knew OF the
dirty fingers which had handled those
oysters they never would have eaten
them. The boy was sulky and imper-
|tincnt and had to bs ordered by the
conductor to move his basket and go
into the baggage room in order to lei
the passengers get Off the train.

The Distinguished Leader Discusses the
Principles of Christian Science Before
the Parliament of Religions.
Every stop of progress is q ster
more spiritual. The great elements
OF reform are not born of human wis
dom. They draw not their life from
human organizations, Rather are
they crumbliDg away of material ele'
ments from the human reason, the
translation OF law to it's original. di
vine mind. and the final unity between
man and God. The footsteps OF
thought, as they pass from the sen.
sual side OF existence TO the reality oil
OF scientific being ARE slow, but the
guardians OF the gloom are the pillars
Of his presence, which imparts hope
wrestlings and collisions, Bs we drift
into more spiritual ATTITUDES.
The improved theory and practice o.
religion and medicine are mainly due
to the peoples improved view of God
AS finite sense of deity. based on ma
terial conception Of spiritual being
yields its Rrosser elements. We shall
understand and obey His laws.
GOOD is UNIVERSAL.
The Hebrew term which gives an
other letter TO the word god" ant
makes 1t good" unites science ant
Christianity. whereby we learn tina
good is universal. and the Divine prln
ciple. life, truth love. This triun,
good is reached through goodness
through mind instead of matter, 81
instead OF sense, understanding ant
demonstration, 1t is the false concep
tions entertained OF Spirit, based OF
the evidences obtained from the mate
rial senses, that form it's deity out o.
the worst human qualities, else o.
wood and stone. Such theory hal
overturned empires in demoniacal con
tests over ellg' on.
Praportionately ms the people'i
opinions OF God have been demateri

impotence already spans the moral
heavens with light, and the enlarged

In Christian Science God is Infinite,
Supreme. the only mind or Spirit,
Life, Substance and Soul. the only
Law or Intelligence of the universe.
Gods individuality is unknown. and
thus knowledge Of it is left either to

OF Divine Science. God Is
