Defense OF Christian Science.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
In the issue of the Journal of July 30
appeared a dispatch dated Philadelphia,
Pa, beginning with the following: kiss
ing away errors among women patients is
cure practiced by certain Camden Chris
tian Scientists, if the story told by a de-
vOtee of that creed to a Camden lawy er
is to be relied upon" And again: "On
certain women patients 1T is necessary
to kiss away errors, and until the oscula-
tory service is done the treatment is
worth nothing
Because of the prominence given this
it is calculated to give the public a wrong
impression to the work of Christian
Science. We note the tone of doubt in
the last part of the first quotation as to
the accuracy of such a story, and will
state very positively that the above meth
cd is not s'practiced'' by Christian Scien-
fists. First, because such an act would
be ungentlemanly in the extreme and I'M
Christian. Second, because know
there is no healing power in the "oscula-
tory" method, or any other material treat
ment, for real healing comes only from
God, the father and creator of the uni
verse and man. There is no treatment for
one person different from that of another,
for God is no respecter of persons, and
all are healed by the same understanding
posed power of evil. because where God
(good) is no sin or sickness can have con-
troll
We speak with authority when we say
the kissing method is not practiced nor
for q moment countenanced by Christian
Scientists. EDWARD H. kEACH.

with Rubin. Miss futile is employed in
a wholesale grocery house near where
Sharl<ey lives. 1t was his usual custom
on his return from dip in the bay
or run, to do his own shopping In this
manner he met the dark-eyed, vivacious
cashier, and a warm attachment is said
to have resulted. This was helped along
by Sharkey's sister. who keeps house for
him and who is a warm friend of her
prospective SiSter-in-law.
There were frequent drives in Shark
ey's handsome turnout. Every day the
two could be seen driving along the
boulevard behind Toms fast trotters.
Rumors flew thick and fast until today
when a close friend of Miss Tuttle ac-
knowledged that the two were to be
married. The wedding, he said, would
be held this week, but the exact date
has not been given out. as it is said to
be the young lady's wish to have it kept
secret.
Miss Tuttle is 10 years old and is con-
sidered handsome. Since childhood she
has held the undisputed title of being
the prettiest girl in Sheepshead Bay. She
has a slight, trim figure and is feet
inches tall. She has large, lustrous,
black eyes and equally black hair. So
cially she is idolized, and no function is
complete or considered a success unless
she is present.

woMAN's GREAT BICYCLE RIDE
Completes Forty-Five Centuries in
Thirty Days and is Well

New York. Aug. 9.-Mrs. Emma r.
Bayne completed her forty-fifth century
awheel in 80 days at exactly 10 o'clock at
night Five hundred century riding fan
atics welcomed her with fireworks at
Valley Stream, l. L, the scene of her
great ride.
For 80 consecutive days has this little
mite of woman been riding centuries
or double centuries daily until the length
of the road she had traversed measured
1880 miles. She had ridden in a month a
distance that would have carried her
across the American Continent or over
the Atlantic ocean and half way back
again. No man or woman in the world
had ever ridden a bicycle nearly so far
by hundreds and even thousands of miles
In the same space of time
When the finish came, however, there
was not the slightest evidence of weari-
ness or physical strain. There jumped
gaily from the bicycle a bright-eyed,
hght-footed, hundred-pound woman
not drOwsy sufferer or a shattered HUI
man wreck.
I really feel better than when I start
ed" said she when I have had anv
trouble it has been with my limbs and
wrists and occasionally with my back
Drowsiness has not troubled me a bit"
Last night Mrs Bayne Extended a re-
ception in her honor by the people of
Valley Stream and seemed none the
worse for her long journey.

New York. Aug. 9.-Gen. Miles today
admitted that it had been his personal
wish to be sent to the Philippines to take
a general view of the situation, but said
he did not presume to understand why
his advice had been rejected thus far.
Discussing the Chinese situation, he
said that he regarded it as very SER
ious.

stacles are to be Encountered in forward

diers are reported to be within a days

may strike behind the relief column and
threaten it's line of communication. 1t
would be a serious matter were the col
umn cut off, as there is no supporting
force to rush to it's aid"
He said the United States should be
able to get 5000 troops into China with
in a month. Continuing, General Miles
said:
Il am not surprised at the fight the
Chinese are making. It is we'll known
