Most of the stone marbles used by boys
are made in Germany. The refuse only
of the marble and agate quarries is en-
ployed, and this is treated in such way
that there is practically no waste.
Men and boys are employed to break
the refuse stone into small cubes, and
with their hammers they acquire mar
velous dexterity. The little cubes are
then thrown into a mill consisting of a
grooved bedstone and revolving runner.
Water is fed to the mill and the runner is
rapidly revolved, while the friction does
the rest.
In half an hour the mill is stopped
and a bushel or so of perfectly rounded
marbles are taken out. The whole pro
cess costs the merest trihe.-Philadelphia

course. was immense. and doubtless
hundreds OF converts were made that
very evening.
Personally, should reject without
investigation seven-tenths OF the mira

because many OF the diseases supposed

clearly in mind the distinction between
what Emmanuel Church has undertaken
and the cult of Christian Science We
are not denying the realities OF this uni
verse nor propounding any new doc
trineS OF faith. Emmanuel Kant said:
"A dream which all persons dream to-
gether and which they must dream IS
no longer a dream. but q reality AS a
scientist. and as Christian. too, I know
that the relations OF the soul and the
body are most intimate. and for every
change in mind there Is a change In the
body. The mind has an immense power
over the state OF the body. And the
minds OF number OF people working
together affect each other. A concourse
OF joyous minded people has a tremen-
dous curative power. That Is why we
design to bring together those who need
social comfort and by testimony to set
free the contagious suggestion which
works for health"

electricity, but the grace of God. And
we do not expect to work miracles"
The scientific and philosophical basis
for this new school of healing was
given by DR.. McComb in an analysis of
Jastrow's "Subconsciousness." The
greatest psychological discovery of
modern times, DIR. McComb claimed, was
the subconscious mind, the region of
natural impulses. the place of storage
of the stun that dreams are made on, -
the hiding place OF lapsed memories.
This subconscious mind Is stored with
subtle powers. which, when highly ex-
cited, blossom into genius. It Is the
subconscious which is In closest rela-
tion with the religious life. and the
uprush from It's works so narvelously
upon life that In common affairs we be-
hold its performances as miracles.
Mental healing, according to Dr. Nc
Comb. is simply releasing these stored
UP powers by way OF suggestion. Man
Is very suggestible animal, and from
the subconscious region a wealth of
dynamic energy may be obtained. 1t is
useless to deny the reality OF the phys
ical body and its pains through de-
ranged functions. But the new psv-
choiogy is saying that the mind has
power over the body almost limitiess."
