IJOhN,S LETTER.

Are yoi well versed In Christian
Science, 81 called! once tried 10 wor-
rv through work on that subject, but
gave IL uplas labor lost and time wasted.
One OF the| writer's ideas-and she spoke
as one whtl was divinely suthorized-is
that sicknJss or freedom from sickness
Is a mere lhatter OF belief or disbelief. II
the majority Of the people In the world
believed ID Is a general condition Of
health everywhere II would be so. That's
what she sbid.
Faith wluld cure anything from sore
toe to sick headache. Believe that
YOU are wdll aud YOU are well. There
was an article In the book from a lady
in California over her own name that
made me llugh because of its ridiculous
ness. Shh was expecting to add one
more TO het family in few weeks and
il was repulgnant to her. She determined
to test heri "Science," and did so, and
there was no Increase. Either the
woman lie,i or something caused her to
err. But that's what she said.
lately Heard of sick man who went
to see a Christian Science advocate to
test her powers OF healing. She told
him TO sit With his back to her back and
believe with all his heart that his health
was restordd, and 1t would be so. He
did so, andl the minutes glided by in
silence, till!about five Of them had dis
appeared when she said to him: SHOW
do YOU feelnow?' "Who? Me? feel
| like damiled fool" And he didn't say
1t with d bnd dash, thus d, but he
nut i'm all the letters that rightfully be-
long to it. 1t was naughty for him to
say it in that way, but doubtless that
was the way he felt and he had probably
been taught from his youth to- tell
things as they are without equivOcating.
see by the Lewiston Journal that
Miss Edwards, the evangelist that was
here for tbw weeks presumably In the
interest Of !he Master, gave Maine lit
tie bit Of a hab. l think she might do
that. think her mouth was apt to slip
at times. No doubt she meant well, but
she wasn't much like Paul, catching by
guile. PREACHERS of the gospel ought
to have knowledge of human nature,
as well as al little touch Of the divine. A
little commpn sense isn't bad thing to
have in the family. All Of those young
eyangelistsj who spoke In Boston gave
Maine bal name. II they really had
within therl the spirit of the Master
think they you'd have been more sue
cessful in their labors. Imported labor
ers are not Always the best. JOHN.

Say, hasn't the gulf stream that wa:
nearing our shores gone back again
Seriously, who ever saw so long 8
stretch of cold weather in the month OF
Nav? Last week there were two heavy
frosfs. and on the afternoon OF the 10th
there WAS slight snow squall. The
previous week was so warm that many
OF the strawberries blossomed, and now
their germs are black as Cato, showing
that they have gone up for this year.
Out West they had the novelty OF sew
eral inches OF snow, which we have been
deprived 81.
Grain that was up ten days ago Is no
bigger. and the forests look like Septem-
Der when they begin 10 change their

\ set of teeth and warranted says
the dentist for 81. In 1919 we worked
for Capt. James Staples, and during the
season he and his wife both had full
set which cost $40. The price was SSO
a set. but having two at the same time
ne discounted that amount. The upper
sets were made on gold plate which COW
cred nearly the whole roof of the mouth
hence the high price.
Our visitors last week consisted OF
Mrs. A. h. Hicks, Carrie f. Swan and
