DOWIE IN RETREAT
Patron Saint of Zion City Not to
Appear in Public Except on
Special Occasions
HEALTH SAID TO- BE FAILING

In the future, for an indefinite time,
opposite" Dowie will not appear in
person before his followers at Zion
City only on estate occasions, viz,
Christmas, New Years, - etc.
His plan will be to have read to his
people in Shiloh tabernacle assembled
each Sunday, message dictated by
him to his people and telling them
what he expects and wishes them to
do.
THE overseer has had such. an &C.
tive life that it is time for him to rest
and take back seat so far as ap.
pearirg in public is concerned,'' said
one of his guards when the message
was read in the meeting Sunday
morning. The message merely said,
that, acting underssadvice of friends,
Dowie had decided to do no active
work until Christmas when he will
appear to conduct the service. The
message said that the overseer is feel
ing bettersthan at any time since his
return FROM Mexico.
This week Dowie gave out word
that he would not have editorials in
his Leaves Of Healing this week or a
few weeks and the paper was sent to
press Friday evening. The forms
had all been closed when word came
that the apostle had changed his
mind and a lengthy editorial was
fastened to the printing Office. ALI

seer's words into print. They told of
his improvement and also referred to
his first para1ytic attack For the
first time it develops that the over
seer was unconscious for "a hours, his
own words admitting the fact.
Dowie's message to his people on
Monday follows:
"The decision to which came on
Friday night not to speak in public
for several weeks has been approved
by God, and the constant bleeding
from the bronchial tubes has almost
entirely ceased, and / wish to tell you
that last night was one of the best of
all my nights and that am rejoicing
this morning in the conviction that
nay recovery will be more rapid and
more certain. Pray for my beloved
wife, who has been dowTfn the valley

Nine Men of Pleasant Prairie Give
Up Portions Of Skin to Save
Life of Fred Augusteen
WAS BURNED WITH HOT SODA
The Powderville Emp1oye Whose Life
Was In the Balance Is Saved By Gift
of Skin From His Friends-The
Minister Leads Work

Nine men of the town of Pleasant
Prairie won a heroic name for them
selves Sunday night when they barred
their arms to the surgeon and allowed
him to cut from the outstretched arms
sufficient cuticle to make an opera.
ton of skin grating which is expected
to save the life of Fred Augusteen, a
Russian laborer formerly employed at
the Latin Rand Powder Mills and
who recently met with serious burns
during fire at the plant.
Augusteen had been under the care
of DR.. Lowe, of the village, and Sun.
day it was discovered that it would be
impossible to save the life of the man
unless skin could be grated on the
burned portions of his body. The
man had been burned by hot soda and
the entire lower portion of his right
leg from the knee to the ankle was
one great burn. All agencies known
to the medical profession had failed
to heal the burns and DR.. Lowe, after
consultation with DR.. May Lewis of
this city, decided that it would be
necessary to graft in new skin.
Then rose the problem of getting
the large amount of cuticle necessary
for the operation. Augusteen had
been decidedly popular among the
workmen at the mill and when the
doctors stated that they must have
the cuticle, volunteers were numer-
Gus. The first man to bare his arm
to furnish skin to save the life of the
man was the Rev. r. HI. Jones, pastor
of the Methodist church at Pleasant
Prairie. Rev. Jones had just returned
from church service and with him
we're many of the members of the
church. AS soon as these men heard
that the skin was needed to save the
life of their fe1lowsman they hurried
to the home of DR.. Lowe.
The minister's arm was the first to
be touched by the knife and more
than square inch of skin was re-
moved and grated on to the leg of
the suffering man. Later eight 9TH
ers of the party surrendered their
arms to the knife, and when this skin
had been grated on it was thought
that sufficient had been taken to make
it possible for the big wound on Aug
usteen's leg to heal.
The Rev. Mr.. Jones and his church
members seemed to think that the
sacrifice they had made amounted to
nothing in comparison with the work
of saving the life of the man.
Augusteen was burned on Novem-
. Der 9, when the big charcoal and soda
house of the company was destroyed
by fire. Augusteen could have saved
himself from serious injury, but after
the men at work at the fire had dis
covered that a number of workmen
were still in the burning soda house,
Augusteen insisted on going to their
aid. He fell, overcome with the
smoke and fumes of the soda, and be-
fore he could be rescued by other
members of the party he was ter.
rib1y burned. It is now thought that
he will recover.

RETAINS HIS PLACE

Congressman Cooper is Named Chair
man of the Insu1ar Committee
The appointments of committee men
of congress were made on Monday
afternoon and Congressman Cooper
of this district will retain his place as
chairman of the committee on Insu1ar
affairs. This is considered one of the
most important committee appoint
ments in the gift of the speaker of
the house.
Congressman Jenkins is the only
other Wisconsin member honored with
Craftsmanship. Burton, Of Ohio,
the old enemy of the North Shore, re-
mains at the head of the river and
harbor committee and there is little
reason to believe that a liberal river
and harbor bill will be passed under
his management.

as it will never be any cheaper than it
is now, and l think it is the duty of every
farmer to have a farm of his own,
and build a barn first. A good barn
will help to build a good house, as you
cant keep stock without a barn. Keep
your own book account and it will save

The Textbook.

The entire subject of Christian Science, to-
gether with its application to human needs, is
fully set forth in the Christian Science textbook,
''science and Health with Key to the Scrip
tures," written by the discoverer and founder
Of Christian Science, Mary Baker 9. Eddy. This
book might well be termed the Christian Scien-
lists commentary on the Bible, containing
it does the Christian Science Interpretation of
the Holy Scriptures. The reading Of this book
has brought health and happiness to thousands,
and will bring It to you. People suffering from
the most malignant and complicated Diseases
ganic, structural and functional, have been
healed by It's prayerful and continued reading.
This indubitable fact evidences that the real
healing Is not the result of any material or
mental effort Of any personality OF thru what
might be called human agency. 1t results
because the statements in the book are the truth
which destroys the false concept or error
called disease, No other book except the Bible
has ever had this effect
What the world owes Mrs. Eddy for this
great discovery and for the explicit statement Of
will never be able to repay. Nor can we esti-
| mate the value Of her wise leadership in estab-
| fishing and conducting this movement. nor rec
ompense her for her selfsacrifce, conservation
and faithfulness to her trust and for her untir-
! ing labors for the salvation Of humanity. Earth
| can never repay her-the well done' Of Spirit
| alone can crown her with true recompense and
| Joy.
| It is gratifying to observe that Mrs. Eddy is
| recognized as one of the worlds most prominent
religious workers, the Founder and Leader of a
4 great religious movement In the press, In ency-
1 clopedias, histories and many important books
| she is being grouped with famous men and
