CARDS 1t as a dangerous delusion. So
far from being form of Christianity, 1t
is, In his judgment, blasphemy against
God the Father, in denying his person
atty; against God, the Son, In denying
his divinity and the reality of his atone
ment for sin, and against the Holy
Ghost, in asserting that Christian Sci
ence itself is the Spirit Of God. There
are undoubtedly Christian people In the
circle of the Christian Scientists, but
they labor, he says, under delusion OF
the most dangerous sort, and as to their
leaders, they are deliberate enemies Of
true religion and wilful decelyers Of
these who follow them.
It's Wonderful Growth.
The growth Of Christian Science has
been marvellous, the more because its
followers have been drawn from the
rich and comfortable classes. 1t was
founded by Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy In
Boston in 1866, but 1t did not begin to
attract general attention until 1890 and
the beginning of the erection Of the
splendid temples found in the large
cities was undertaken within the past
FIVE years. In New York City alone
there are three churches completed or
on the way to 1.-THE aggregate value
Of which is $1,500,000. The First Church
cost S67O,OOO and the Second $3.50, 600.
Both are paid for. In addition there
are six more societies in Greater New
York. In Boston, the mother church,
built at cost of 100000 and dedicated
in 1894, has the greatest number of
members of any church In the world
1880, of whom 1900 were added last
year. Chicago has three handsome
churches erected within four years.
Tennesseeans take to 1t strongly, espe-
cially in Memphis, where two flourish
ing churches Lave been established
within two years with 1900 followers.
Philadelphia has four churches and
1000 believers. Buffalo Is stronghold
of the cult and Denver is preparing a
temple to cost $250,000 to further its
principles. Boston, however, Is the
leader in winning followers. From 26
members In 1889 the church there has
now membership of more than 10000.
! Altogether in America the Scientists
have 623 church societies, with men,
bership of 100000, and with churches
to the value of $12,O0O,COO.
| Abroad the cult is taking wonderful
ly, especially in Great Britain. London
has fiourishlng church, as have Dub
lin, Liverpool, Manchester, Birming-
ham and bennington. Among the En-

of Dunmore and the Earl of Tanker.

The churches, or temples, are open
every day, and in some of their features
and appointments are suggestive OF
club houses rather than places of wor
ship. This has done much to popular
lie the institution, especially in large
cities, and to wean away members OF
other Christian denominations.

Good Roads Save Money.

One Of the most important and en-
couraging Of the many conferences
held at the Pan-American Exposition
was the good roads congress. The
questions of mutual concern which
brought together delegates from thir-
ty-nine Of the States, and from Mex
leo and Canada, is one upon which
much has been spoken and written
and had the congress merely met to
continue the advocacy of improved
roads 1t would have been Of little note
The delegates, however, were not
limited to the discussion of what
ought to be done; they were able to
compare notes upon what has been
done.
Particularly gratifying reports came
from the South, where highway i'm.
provement has been needed greatly.
There was a general agreement among
representatives of all parts of the
country that the rise of public interest
in good roads was steady and promis-
ing, and there was a general belief
that much progress would be made in
the next few years.
Maryland has not overlooked this
question. State aid has been enlisted
in tAe worthy cause Of road improve
ment, and public sentiment will proba-
bly, be found in sympathy with de.
termination to keep up with sister
States in this important work.
Moreover, good roads, aside from
convenience, are Of great money value
to any community. Business is aided,
as well as comfort or pleasure. The
price of hauling produce over a bad
road far exceeds the cost of keeping
the same highway in good repair

WHERE DO The CLOTHES COZ
A Possible Explanation OF DisappearanceS
In Country Houses.

In Country Houses.
The tendency of various articles Of
dress belonging to guests to disappear
in country houses is undeniable, and
there is scarcely a visitor who has
not his story of a missing coat or pair
of trousers or some similar article to
tell. It is never known just how
these things get away, but they go,
and the circumstances Of the loss us
ually prevent extended investigation.
The experience of a guest at a coun-
try house recently opened his eyes as
to the possible reason for some Of
these mysterious disappearances.
"When the valet came to the room
to unpack my bag" he said, 81 found
that l had come off without a most
necessary part of my wardrobe.
had all of my dress suit excepting the
trousers
My host was exactly my opposite in
figure, and there was no hope of re.
lief from that quarter. None Of the
other men stopping in the house had
any extra garments and as 1t was
only a short time before dinner the
situation looked critical. Then the
valet came to my assistance and said
that he thought he could find a pair
of trousers to fit me- He brought a
pair and they were all right.
"After I had tried them on he told
me that he had another pair that had
braid on thp seams IL liked that bpt-
ter. OF course when left gave him
twice as large tip as l would have
done had l not been indebted to him
for his trousers.
'I did not ask him the source Of his
supply, but it occurred to me that the
inexplicable way in which visitors
garments disappear at times in coun-
try houses might be explained by the
collection of emergency garments that
the Wallets have on hand."-New York

NIadagascar,s Poisonous Tre.

One of the most extraordinary trees
in the world is found in Madagascar.
1t is known as the tangen tree, and
because it abounds in poison the name
tanghinia venenfera has been given
to it by botanists. In the criminal
records Of Madagascar it has played
a notable part until quite recently.
Whenever an accused person was
brought into court, fruit from the tree,
about the size Of an apple, was handed
to him by an attendant. Thereupon
the judge, who was surrounded by
several witnesses, bade him eat the
fruit, and assured him that If it pro-
duced no i'll effects he would be
deemed innocent of the charge which
had been made against him. On the
other hand, if the poison in the fruit
killed him, he would be considered
guilty. Many unfortunate persons, it
is said, lost their lives in this way.

Eereditv.

To account for the transmssibiiity
of ancestral types Darwin in his work
on "Pangenesis" promulgated a theory
that each cell threw off what he desig-
mated "gemmules," which formed the
nuclei Of another series Of cells, whose
sole destiny in the economy Of nature
was the propagation of its species.
These "gemmules" formed the BIAS
tema, in which was contained an eX-
ceedingly microscopical impression of
the animal which might ultimately be
called into being. If this were the case
we should be able to submit the minia-
ture image to our investigation by
means of the microscope. But strong
microscopes are wanted. The red cor
puscles of human blood have to be
about one four-thOusandth part of an
inch. The number of these red corpus
cles which would adhere to the point
of a needle would not be less than
100000. Theory teaches that the final
division Of matter is the storm, and
the atom has been measured. 1t is
calculated that in a cube of water one
thirty -thousandth part of an inch wide
there are 30,00O,OOOOOO atoms.-Lon.

Mahogany Hunting.

Mahogany hunting is precarious
work. In Central and South America
the mahogany trees do not grow in
groups, much less are there whole
forests of them They are scattered,
usually concealed in thickets. 1t re-
quires skill and experience to find
them. To fell a tree involves the
work Of two men for a whole day On
account of a thick, horny growth near
the base of the tree a scaffold is
erected around 1t, and above this, at
height of from ten feet to fifteen
feet the tree is cut, so that the best
part is really lost. The felled tree is
then freed of branches, and hauled on
q rough wagon by oxen to the nearest
river, where RATS are made and 6oated
down.

a project is now under consideration
by the municipality Of Vienna for the
more profitable disposal Of the sewage
Of the city, which at present is dis
charged into the Danube. The scheme
consists in the application Of a method
developed by Herr Noebel, of Posen,
Eor the utilization of the liquid part
of the sewage for the double purpose
Of irrigation and enrichment 1t is in
tended to convey the sewage in pipes
to an extensive plain of poor land
which suffers from lack of water due
To inadequate rainfall, over which it is
not to be carried in trenches, as is
done in England, but the surface of
the land is to be irrigated by sprink-
ling the sewage water over it. 1t is
said that by this plan the land will not
lbe over-saturated, as it frequently is
on the sewage farms at Berlin and
Paris The system is stated to have
been already in use at Posen with sat
isfactory results.

The silver Republican party of Idaho

dredging machinery. Alluvial deposits,
the mud at the mouth of the Yukon
river and the sand beneath the surface

known to hold gold in workable guam

BY a new method the material can be
rapidly lifted onto a scow--or rather
ship--the gold cheaply extracted and the
worthless material dumped overheard.
The process will be continuous and
nearly automatic. Professor Shaler be-
lieves that as a result of the increase
of production gold will become much
cheaper than it is at present. and that
prices must rise greatly in consequence.
He even goes so far as to say that the
fall in the value of gold will reinstate
the relative price of silver to the old

may prove to be the most stable stand
