Women have a surer faculty for
getting down to the facts of a baby s
sex than all the specialized SCIENTISTS
who ever wrote initials after their
names.
She can converse more intelligent
ly in minute than two senators can
in months debate.
She shows more ingenuity in the
things she does with the leftover
boiled potatoes than the greatest in
ventor who ever signed a patent
specification.
She can throw a better bluff by
one swish of her skirts than a man
can throw in a whole series of poker
games.
Yes.
Man is the bass accompaniment,
but woman is the twiddly bits, the
pretty little twiddly bits, the alien
trancing twddly bits that steal your
neaft away.
Man is the dough and the batter.
but woman is the favoring and icing
without which the cake would be dry
bread.
Man is the stem, the stalk and the
leaves, but a woman is the fowel
white, rosy, fragrant, nodding hel
head to the sun.
Man is the roast beef and the
mashed potatoes, but woman is the
sweet dish, the dessert, the perfec
ton of all.
Man is the sense of the poem, the
hard words CLOSED over, but woman
is the meter and the rhyme.
Man is the reading matter and the

financial news, but woman is the ed
itOrial page and the ads.
Man is the sides of the house, but
woman is the cornice, arabesqued,
striking and covered with delicate
sculpture.
Man is the hypothesis and the
working out of the problem, but
woman is the Q. E. d.
Man is the drum, the winds and
the brasses of the orchestra, but wo-
man is the eager little violin, SHIN
mering in melody sweet and exquis-
lite.
Man is the scene-shifter and the.

finished performer who holds the
audience spellbound, GREATNESS,

"No conferences have been held
by Christian Scientists; no con-
sternation, excitement or perturba-
tion exists.
"As, in times past, when silly ru-
mors dealing with Mrs. K1dy's
health have been published, this
one has spent its force and return
ed to it's native nothingness, so
far as Christian Scientists are con-
cerned, and we think so far as con-
Germs the general public.
"These rumors do not injure the
Christian Science cause.
Like a mist that passes over the
earth, it may temporarily hide the
facts from the general public, but
as the mist passes away, without ev-
en- marring the edge of leaf or a
blade of grass, so these visions of
misguided journalists fade away,
and the great cause of truth contin-
ues steadily in its course.
Each successive experience Of
this sort tends to sharpen the in
credulty of the public and prepare
them against believing such reports,
when the next installment appears.
Ignorant of Storics."
Mrs. Eddy knows not what the
world has published concerning
her. nor did she know anything
about the questions which were to
be propounded to her.
"She knew, however, that she was
being paraded because of most un-
reasonable demands to prove her
veryexistence, and all fair-minded
persons who witnessed this event
speak in glowing terms of the man
ner in which she bore up through
the terrible ordeal. Those who had
never seen Mrs. Eddy were not so
well prepared to make due allowance
for the occasion as were those who
had seen her.

happy, and is at her desk giving
instructions to her secretary, Mr.
Frye and conducting her own af-
fairs.
Christian Scientists have no fear
about their leader. yhey are well
awere that the numerous statements
which have been given out by her
friends, some who are Scientists
and some who are not Scientists,
concerning her normal bodily and
mental condition, ars true.
"Her Fortune Her own"
1.-THE church has nothing what
ever to do with Mrs. Eddy's fortune,
whether it be large or small. 1t is
her own property and consists of a
legitimate wage for her services as
teacher of Christian Science and
the legitimate profits on her books.
Mrs. Eddy is not a trustee for
any church funds, and therefore
has no accounting to render to
Christian Scientists.
"The church has no jurisdiction
over her private holdings, and
therefore no more right to know
what disposition she makes of them
than they have to inquire about the
private affairs of any other citizen.
Even casual observer with a
Slight knowledge Of arithmetic can
readily estimate that it is i'm
possible for Mrs. Eddy to be even
millionaire.
Il hold in my possession an aft
dayit made by Mrs. Edward L. Price,
the auditor Of the books of the
Christian Science church which
dayit made by Mr.. Edward L. Price,
ceiyed any money from the Chris
tan Science church, with the ex-
ception of $4,000, which was tender
ed her by the directors of the
church for services rendered dur
VA
the mother church in Boston. Mr..
Price is well known business
man and is not a Christian Scientist
No Lawyers Consulted"
"No Boston lawyers or any other
lawyers have been consulted by
Christian Scientists with reference Il
interfering with the duties and ac-
complishments of Mrs. Eddy's
faithful secretary, nor has there
been any talk of such an action nor
any occasion for talk on the SUBJ
ject
1.-The doors of Pleasant View
stand open, as they have in the
past; Mrs. Eddy will receive her
friends as usual and will go as us
ual on her daily drives. She was
out yesterday and was recognized
by many of her fellow townsmen.

New Life Aroused.

Mr.. Harry j. Hill, special field
deputy for the Fraternal Brother
hood. is working in this territory So
liciting members into the local
lodge of the order. He is assisted
in his work by Mrs. Hill who is
considered one of the best insurance
solicitors in the state.
The hustling ability of Mr.. and
Mrs. Hill as well as the popularity
of the order can be determined
from the fact that in one week over
20 applications have been secured.
Wednesday evening. Nov. II, has
been set for initiating, when the
lodge expects to add a Class of
about 80 new members.

Ono Man Robbed Bank.

NEWTON, Kan, Nov. fS.-The
Midland National bank in Newton
was held up by one man and rob-
bed OF $1,000. The robber presented
letter to the cashier, telling him
what to do, at the same time tell
ing the clerks and bystanders they
would all die together should any
attempt be made to detain him. Five
or six persons were in the bank,
and all were ordered into a vault
and locked up The robber then
took the money and escaped.

'sKnute Nelson, United States Senate,
Washington, D. c.:
LAS you know I am in full sympathy
with the main fea atures of the amend
ment proposed to the interstate com
merce act. but desire to protest
against the injustice of the proposed
amendment imposing fine and i'm
prisonment on officers and agents of
railway companies for allowing re-
bates. Such penalties can never be in
fiicted upon presidents and high of
f1cials of 1900 miles of railways of
this country, who live in New York
and do not deal directly with rates,
while their demand for more revenue
viii induce some freight agent on a
salary of three or four thousand dol
lars a year TO grant a rebate. Make
the penalty as high as you please
against the railway company. This is
the only way to reach the railway
ezars and grand dukes. The penalty
Of imprisonment was in excess for
many years and only one man, poor
freight agent trying to support his
FAMILY on a meagre salary, was i'm
prisoned. A. B. STICKNEY.
