TyndaIl's Prayer Gauge.

New York Evening Post: Tyndall
came into great disrepute with the
religious world in 1872 by his bold
suggestion that the efficacy of prayer
be made a subject of scientific expert
ment. In this he was substantially
anticipated in Hawaii where the
natives, years before, had challenged
the missionaries to competitive test
of the value of prayer and of heather
sacrifices as a means of stopping the
dangerous flow of lava from Mauna
Loa. The doctrine of prayer now held
by intelligent Christians has made
Tyndall's prayer gauge obsolete as
far as they are concerned.
