St. Paul. Minn., May 2.-Because he will not recall his publicly voiced belief that the story of resurrection of Christ is only a beautiful fairy tale and because ne insists that the theory of the immaculate conception must be viewed in relation To the divine rather than the human life of Christ, Robert Hamilton Cotton, D. D., 67 years of age, and for two score years a patient and sacrificing teacher of Christ's life, as 1t helps the everyday man, must surrender his right to preach and step down and out. He has been denied a license to preach in Minnesota by Bishop S. c. Edsall of the Episcopal diocese and is charged with heresy.
 For years Dr. Cotton was rector of the beautiful old St. Pauls church in St. Paul, and later of Christ church, one of the important Episcopal charges of the city. For 25 years he has served his de- nomination as clergyman in Minnesota. The denial of a license practically means his expulsion from his denomination since the bishops of other dioceses have been notified and will not according to their practice, grant him the right to preach ,.ae.nefe Dr. Cotton says little of the action except to vigorously assert his be- lief in Christ and in Christian doctrines and teachings.
 q am a Christian first last and all the time," he said. "The only heresy of which I am guilty is no heresy. For years have reasoned with myself and know now, and teach, that the doctrine of the virgin birth and of the resurrection are not true.
 'I expect to be accommodated, though it Is hard. The church does not want thinkers Word has gone forth that min isters of advanced thought and progress siveness are barred
 Dr. Cotton's dismissal from the pulpit is an echo of the famous Dr. Crapsey case Dr. Cotton believes with Dr. Crap sey and so announced himself. On March 24 Bishop Edsall wrote the aged minister asking him whether it was true that he agreed with the Crapsey doctrines and in reply received a letter from Dr. Cot ton saying that he did. The refusal of a license followed. pr. Cotton explicitly states the beliefs which promise to re- suit in a sensation in the Episcopal de- nomination in the northwest, and per haps another heresy trial, as follows:

Suffering Mental, Not Physical.

Max Eastman in the May Atlantic.
 A great deal of alleged physical suffer- ing is primarily mental. A great many people have fixed ideas" of disease, pain, debility, fatigue, dread, inefficiency and unexpressible woes. Much oftener than we realize these can be transplanted without surgery or medication. do not mean that they are not real sufferings. They are as real as the grave. But they are not grounded in physical infirrnity, and they are not to be cured with physics. The mind becomes possessed of a con viction that a certain part of the body is infirm, and imputes pain to that part in spite of all the medicine in the world. Hundreds of people refuse to get well after the physician has cured them. It is not his fault, and 1t is not their fault; but they have simply had disease sug- gested to them until they cannot think at all except upon that assumption. It is an "auto-suggestion" or it is a family suggestion, and the only way to remove 1t is by the vigorous counter-suggestion of another person. The value of | fixed idea" of health, as being only the removal of a fixed idea of disease where there was no organic reason for it, will hardly be disputed Yet one cannot over-emphasize the multtudes that there are of these in yalids sitting in padded chairs and making ready for the hearse, whose trouble is primarily mental; and how many there are again who have slight organic infirmity, and have increased its effects a thousandfold by what we may call household suggestion" D

elsewhere. The development of irriga-
