CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.
Discussed at Sitting Of London Dioce-
san Conference.
Special Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, June 9.-Christian Science was
the principal subject discussed at the recent
sitting of the London diocesan conference.
the bishop of London again presiding. Tho
archdeacon of London moved That this
conference, whilst considering that Chris
tian Scientists are justified in emphasizing
the power of faith In healing, views the
main outline of their teaching and attitude
as antagonistic both to Christianity and
science" Archdeacon Sinclair remarked
that there Just one good thing about
Christian Science, in that 1t insisted very
strongly on the power of faith. The prin-
cipals of the sect were contained In book
called Science and Health" in which 1t
was stated that no person could take the
place of the Virgin Mary; no person could
fulfill the individual place or Jesus Christs
and no person could take the place OF the
discoverer of Christian Science-thus put
ting Mrs. Eddy on level with Christ. They
held that there was no pain, no SIN. anu
that matter was unreal He knew iady
friend of his who was ILL., and who nad
been advised to see Christian Sclehise.
His friend did so, but said 10 the Sclenuss.
There Is one condition which must aaii =.
pose before l allow you TO treat me.
ssWhat Is that?" said the Scientist Thal
you let me put a pinch OF cayenne pepper
in your right eye first" Needless to say,
his friend was not treated
The Bishop of London said that this ST.
gantic heresy had brought to light several
truths. The first was the influence or
mind over matter. Then they must admit
the sacredness Of the healing art, which
had been so much left out In modern times.
He agreed that the Christian Church ought
to have brought far more good cheer into
the worl Then they must consider care-
fully the question Of inaction.
Eventually the motion was adopted unan-
iniously in the following amended form:
That this conference. while emphasizing
the power OF faith In healing. views tha
main outline OF the teaching and attitude
OF the Christian Scientists as antagonistto
both to Christianity and science"

canned, and watched, critically every
movement of the young woman behind the
counter, as she rubbed a sample of the
magic cream over her white and bejeweled
hands. This test proving satisfactory, she
took dollar from her bag and went on
with one OF the porcelain Jars.
The only thing worth noticing about the
transaction was that the customer was n
coiored woman, with skin the brown of
toasted coffee and hair OF the kinky quality
informally known wool.
A chance to laugh at somebody elses
expense should never be missed. So the
beauty-Seekers laughed
And while they were about 1t, the colored
woman went over to an opposite counter
and handed her purchase to a faded looking
white woman in pink lowered organde,
with rakish Johnny" perched on her
dyed-at-home bun"
A cricket held reception the other night
at the foot of the treasury steps
Midnight had given its silence to the
street and big white moon had turned II
into silver. The cricket must have entoyed
the silence and the moonshine for 1t chirped
so loud and so cheerfulIy as TO stop two
oeiated people who were hurrying by. AS
they listened both were moving around
trying TO locate the sound, when a man
came along.
Lost something. ladies? If you will per-
nit me, have matches?"
No. / thank you, SIR explained one of
the women-both of whom were plain and
not any too young-'we are listening to
