4 FRAUD EXPOSED.

In the December number of Me Cures Magazine is an editorial an- nouncement of story to be publish ed in subsequent numbers of that magazine relating to the Rev Mary Baker G. Eddy, the discoverer and founder of Christian Science It is stated that as a result of careful investigation their story is probably "as near absolute accuracy as his tory ever gets" The Magazine also published a picture which represent on in 1882. It is not a picture of Mrs. Eddy at all, but is likeness of Mrs. Sarah C. Chevaillier, who for merly lived in Boston, and who was the grand mother of Mrs K. T. Lou than, of this city as shown by the following statements from Mrs. Lou than and her husband:
 Pine Bluff, Ark, Dee. 6. 1906. Capt. C. T. Robinson, City.
 Dear Sir:-In reply to your inquiry will say that the photograph copied in McClure's Magazine for December, 1906, on page PIP, is the picture of my grandmother, Mrs. Sarah C. Cheyaillier. whom saw frequently at short intervals from my infancy until her death in California two years ago. I spent the year of 1900 with her ill Los Angeles, California. The picture is the exact likeness of my grandmother.
 Respectfully yours,
 (SignedD MRS. R. T. LOUTHAN,
 nee Helen c. Chevaillier. Capt C. T. Robinson, City.
 Dear Sir:-Referring to the above communication addressed to you by my wife, l certify that the picture al luded to in McClure's Magazine for December, 1906, on page 212. is an exact likeness of my wife's grand mother, Mrs. Sarah c. Chevaillier whom it was my pleasure to know in timately.
 Very respectfully.
 (Signed.) R. T. LOUTHAN.
 Making the alleged likeness a test of the accuracy" of the McClure's ar- ticles, the above shows that they are unworthy of any credit or confidence whatever, and are no doubt, prompted hy the same spirit which actuated the malicious attacks made upon Mrs. Eddy by the New York World-merely a desire to ponder to morbid clamor for the sensational. This attack up on Mrs Eddy will not injure her, nor the cause of Christian Science, nor does it reflect credit upon Mcclure $ Magazine.

seconds. High speed, however, is not
what is especially desired, but ease OF
starting and stopping, ease of running
and freedom from accidents and break
downs; also, economy in operating. This
last was quite evident, as it required
but one gallon of gasolene to make the
fastest mile that was run There was
not a single breakdown OF any portion
of the machinery during the test. one
of the gratifying features was the
rapid acceleration of speed. showing
the adaptability of the car to frequent
stops. From a complete standstill a
speed of 80 miles an hour was quickly
picked up and the power of the engine
was such as to show that If necessary
q train of three or four trailers might
have been hauled. In appearance the
car does not differ from the ordinary
model, but at one end is gasolene en-
gine driving an electric dynamo, and
the wheels are run by motors placed
on the trucks. The engine is of $50
horsepower, and the car can be run
in either direction. A complete air.
brake system gives control. and the car
is heated by water coming from the
coolers on the gasoline engine. 1t is
lighted by electricity. The success of
this experimental car will lead the com
pany to order the building of a great
number for local traffic on the main
