A wnter-spoutinr volcano.

The greatest volcano on she surface
of the globe as far as is known to man
is the famous Mont de Aqua, or water
volcano, one of the tallest peaks in the
mountain range which crosses Southern
Guatemala. 1t would be more correct,
perhaps, to speak of this freak as
mountain geyser, but as it is known
throughout Central America as vol
cano we will mention its peculiarities
under that head. De Auga has been
'active" by turns for more than one
hundred years, and during all that time
has never been known to eject anything
except immense torrents of pure, cold
water.

her faith is one of cheerfulness. She
the idea of evil. She says that the
millennium will come when the crea-
rtures of this earth throw off the ac-
acknowledgement of sin and death; then,
and only then will they enter into their
heritage of immortal life.
This is her creed, as nearly as l can
expound it, and its verify she claims to
have tested now for ten years of her
life. Her health has become perfect
since she espoused it, and she has
seemed to become younger every day
under it's influence. AS soon as she be-
came convinced that Christian science
was for her the greatest truth that life
held. her own life changed materially.
She practically gave up the world. She
relinquished social honors and pleas
lures. To the poor and needy she de-
voted her time and money, responding
to every call made Upon her. Her whole
/. time is now devoted to humanity.

nothing could make me relinquish it."
Gradually followers came to her. At
first she held her meetings every Fri
day and Sunday in small room in the
center of the city. Soon that became
inadequate for the crowds which assem-
Ebled to hear her, and so the quarters
were moved to handsome building on
Peachtree street. Some months ago
word went forth from Mrs. Eddy that
the disciples of Christian science were
to give no more talks or sermons, but
were to read from the book on that
faith and expound its meaning. She
still occasionally reads at the rooms
and has private talks with her friends
.on science.
Mrs Mimms is the wife Of Maj. Liv

Mrs. Livingston Mimms' Peculiar
Doctrine Of Faith.
sshe Is Unique and Prominent Figure
In the Social Life of the New South
Her Creed Expounded by
Friend.

Mrs. Livingston Mimms, Of Atlanta.
sGa., is unique figure The disciples
of new faith or new art are general
lly called, and often are, fanatics. They
seldom come from the inner circle of
conventional society, for conven-
tional society is opposed to anything
save conventionality. Mrs. Mimms
however, writes Maude Andrews in
the Chicago Times Herald. was
some years ago leading social light in
the best sense of the word; a brilliant
land beautiful woman, endowed with a
rare and comprehension intellect, which
she cultivated to the utmost in every
possible line of literature and art. She
drew about her all the persons OF Guilt
walton in her social world. In those
days she could be said to have had more

ANY other woman in the south. She was
The high priestess of art and letters.
For ten years she had been an in
valid, bnt her sufferings left no trace
upon her mind, or upon her face. She
had tried all sorts of remedies and all
sorts, OF physicians, spending thousands
OF dollars with the hope of restoring
her health. At this time she became
interested in Christian science through
one OF the disciples OF Mrs. Eddy. the
christian scientist of Boston. Through
the instruction of this young Christian
: scientist Mrs. Simms' health began rap
idly to improve. She is an extremely
receptive and sympathetic woman, and
she became absorbed with the idea of
spiritual power. This power she did
not claim as part of her human person
salty, but as the gift of the Creator.
The faith of Christian science as she
'expounds it, is a beautiful one. 1t is the
non-acceptance of evil either through
the mind or body. Her creed is that to
the human being whose soul strength is
fully developed there can be no sin. no
PAIN no death. She takes the idea of
death as it is taught in the Bible, lit
orally translating it as a transition to
immortal life. She does not believe in
swearing weeds of woe for the dead:
