the nation which refuses peaceable arbi-

REVERSIBLE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.
Since 1t Can Cure Disease 1t Can

Science question pointed out novel and
alarming danger arising out Of the teach

seemed to think that this danger was in

females. His idea that women, IL
they had it in their power to infiict bodily
ailments upon their fellowwomen, would
be more likely than men to use this power
for the qualification of their private
grudges In support OF this view he ap-
pealed to the history of wstchcraft, assert
ing that when people were able, or sus-
pected of being able to exert by occult
arts a malign influence over the life and
health of their neighbors these neGarious
practices were in the main only charged
against females-generally an elderly and
passe female, but occasionally young

MONTEZUMA'S BALL GAME.
The Ancient Aztecs Had a Sport Very
Similar to Tennis.

Modern Mexico.
In the ruins of Uxmal and Chichen Itaz.
Yucatan, there are supposed to have been
inclOsed immense gymnasiums or apart
ments where many kinds Of games were
played. Inserted in the longer walls, mid
way between the ends and twenty feet
from the ground. were sculptured stone
rings that for a long time bafhed arch
biologists as to even a conjectural use.
The hole in the rings at Chichen is one foot
seven inches in diameter, the two great
openings exactly face each other. and the
walls in which they are inserted are thirty
feet thick 274 feet long and 40 feet apart.
Some of the explorers have claimed that
this great building was an unfinished tenn
pie. since it undoubtedly contained idols
set in inches, but it is reasonable TO as
sumo that all buildings of such size and i'm
portance contained idols and that they
were worshiped and propitiated with gifts
in all sports, as we'll as times OF more Sc
rious undertakings.
The scholars who claim that this struc-
ture was once a great tennis court and ball
ground are supported by Herrera in his
account Of the diversions Of Montezuma.
He says: 1.-THE King took much delight In

and heavy to the hand. did bound and fly
