flaming chariots. Not one OF these things
is more remarkable or more miraculous
than the feat which Schlatter claims to
be able to perform. II Schlstter really
is what he say, he is and has the power
to do what he ssyo he can do, and what
good many people believe he
can do, then we may as well
pitch all the medical books
into the fire, and the physicians
may as well close their Offices. We
would not have to bother with the
. ordinary methods Of curing disease.
And not only in this one direction. but
in all others, there would no longer be
such thing as impossibility. In the
time OF miracles all things were possible
and il we are again in the age Of
miracles then again all things are
possible. 1t is really astonishing how
many people who are reasonably sane
believe in Schlatter. There is in the
human mind an inherent bent towards
the supernatural and miraculous.
People want to believe in these things,
and when there are few supporting
incidents as ia the case OF Schlatter.
they are readily convinced that the
chimera is fact. 1t is not good to
suffer, and ! sincerely hope Schlatter is
genuine and that miracles have come
again. There was time. not very far
back. when great many people be-
lieyed the rain makers could touch of
little powder and make rain. Now.
great many people believe
Schlatter can, with his magnetic touch,
make the deaf to hear, the blind to
see and the lame whole. A little time
and am afraid Schlatter will take his
place with the rain makers. Magnetism
alone will not cure. Man does not per-
form miracles. We must still submit
to the slow and not over certain
processes OF the practical NJ. D., and
be content to get along without the
flaming chariot. hope ] may be mis-
taken.
A friend writes to give a word OF an.
proval VI The CoURIER's remarks on the
subject OF divorce and to urge the fur
Their agitation OF the subject. He says
in part:
81 have been unfortunate enough TO
have been concerned in considerable
litigation. know what the delay is in
the ordinary suit at law, and know
what the facility in making divorces is
in our courts. i have seen the Judges
OF our district court actually interrupt
pending proceedings to consider an an
plication for divorce and grant a de-
cree. 1t seems to me the least the
judges could do would be to insist that
divorce cases be made to take their turn
and be heard in regular order, and not
rushed through in utter disregard of
propriety and morality"
What this correspondent says is true.
There is a shameless and indecent haste
in sundering marital ties that other ill.
assorted and more or less immoral
matches may be made Last week, in
addition to calling attention to some
cases here at home, / cited the Yznaea
incident, where the woman, called by
the newspapers a society queen" in
formed her husband that she had tired
OF him and loved another. the Count
Itchy. and thereupon set about to OBJ
tain divorce for the express purpose Of
marrying the count. Apropos somebody
writes a letter to the New York Sun
that is interesting as explaining the
Catholic idea OF divorce. 1t is as fol-
