how it could possibly bear upon the
matters now finally to be adjusted be-
tween Quarter and himself, because
Quarter was in New York and Nor
timer in Saratoga, and unless the lat
ter had already sold his information
the former could not strike at him
through knowledge of 1t.
And yet curious reluctancy, hest
tation inexplicable-unless overwork
explained it--had come over him when
Siward had proposed their dining to-
gether on the very eve of his complet-
ed victory over Quarter.
1t seemed absurd. and Plank was
too stold to entertain superstttions,
but he could not, even with Leila
laughing there beside him, shake off
the dull instinct that all was not well;
that QLsirrlers attitude was still the
attitude Of dangerous man; that he
(Plank) should have had this evening
In his room alone to study out the
matters he had 80 patiently plodded
through In the long hours while ST.
ward slept.
Yet not for one instant did he dream
of shifting the responsibilities re-
sponsibility entailed blame-on Siward,
who, against Plank's judgment and
desire, had on the very eve Of con
summation drawn him away from that
sleepless vigilance which must forever
be the price Of business mans safety.
Leila, gay and excited as school
girl, chartered on ceaselessly to Plank;
all the silence. all the secrecy of the
arid years turning to laughter on her
red lips, pouring out In broken phrases
of delight, words strung together for
the sheer pleasure Of speech and the
happiness of her lot to be with him

Christian Scientists Come in
For Attention at Hands of
Presbyterian Pastor
NO TRACE REAL CHRISTIANITY
So Declares Pastor in Sunday Morning
Discourse-Also Says Christian
Science is Undemocratic, Unscientif-
ic, and Not BbIcal-Predicts Same
Death as Other Fads.

Rev. c. w. McCord, pastor of the
/ to Christian Science in his Sunday
morning address. The church was
filled, and many Scientists We're at
tracted, probably because of rumor
that recently became circulated, to the
effect that the Presbyterian pastor had
embraced Christian Science. This came
about, it is presumed, because of a re-
cent address on Psychic Healing" de-
livered by Mr.. McCord before the Mar
shall County Medical society.
Mr.. McCord handled the subject of
Christian Science without gloves, and
to the members of his church who lean
toward the cult the sermon came as a
great shock. He spoke in part as fol-
lows:
"It is an inherent right of the in
dividual to believe what he will, and
as a general thing, to hold that belief
unmolested. But when his belief, as
DCaCLlCeQ, becomes d !ueldte " SllS
physical, moral, and mental life of the
community, then he throws himself
open to justitiable attack Such is the
position held today by the Christian
Scientist, and as a follower of the
whims of Mrs. Eddy he is menace to
the physical. moral, and mental life OF
the community.
"The spirit of the present day is q
democratic one. Every movement Is
judged by that standard. The success
full movement is the one that contrib
utes the greatest good to the greatest
number of lives. Judged by that stand
ard of measurement, Christian Science
is failure. Mrs. Eddy is the professed
author of Science and Health. She is
pastor emeritus. In the strict sense of
the word she is the board of directors,
the president of the board, the secre-
tary. the treasurer. Christian Science
is product partly borrowed and part
ly manufactured for the benefit of Mrs.
Eddy.
"My second criticism of Christian
Science is this: 1t is not scientific OF
the scientists careful and long train
ing Of mind, of his exhaustless SnoWl-
edge Of history, his minute observation
of facts, his cautious inductions, of all
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1908-03-02

these there Is not trace in the works
of Mrs. Eddy. The only trace Of sci
ence to be found in Science and Health
is the printed word itself.
MY third proposition is this: Chris
tan Science is not Biblical. In Sci
ence and Health we discover interpre
we have never met before, and l most
sincerely trust will never meet again.
No one has any right to give to the BIZ
bile any other meaning than that which
belongs to it, Mrs Eddy's method OF
Interpretation is allegorical She does
not take words in their plain sense,
but gives them fanciful meanings OF
her own. The true meaning of Adam,
from her point of view, is Error. An
gels are good thoughts. Canaan means
sensuous belief Dan means animal
magnetism Jerusalem means mortal
belief, etc.
My fourth criticism of Christian
Science is this: 1t is not Christian. 1t
has not a trace of real Christianity i'll
it's entire makeup. The proof: 1t de-
MES the attonement. Where there Is
no sin and no penalty. there can be no
atonement. The death of Christ is de-
MED; that his resurrection is myth,
of course must follow.
christian Science is not Christian.
because it does not believe in prayer.
except as meditation or species of
mental gymnastics. To pray for Gods
help. SAYS Mrs Eddy, is useless, pre-
sumptuous, harmful Christian Sci
ence is not Christian because of its at
titude toward the greatest of institu-
tons. the home. The logical outcome
of Christian Science, as it concerns the
home and home relations, is free love-
In conclusion. Mr.. McCord said:
"Other fads and fancies have made
their appearance in days gone by. They
lived, and thrved for time, then died
So will Christian Science. When the
lips of Mrs. Eddy are sealed in DEATH
Christian Science will be lost in the
mighty rush that will follow when the
faithful clamor for their share of the
real and not imaginary spoils."
