About twenty years ago Mr.. Sherman
presented Father Dorney with block
OF stock In the National Live Stock
Bank. which Mr.. Sherman had just
founded. The transaction finally passed
entirely out of the priests mind. The
bank meanwhile prospered, and for
years had been declaring dividends of
htteen per cent. Recently the bank
was merged with a larger financial
house, and in the course of the transfer
lit was found that Father Dorney was
entitled to s6s.ooo for his stock and
unpaid dividends.
st. Gabriels parish is now rejoicing
over their beloved pastors good for
tune. and Father Dorney Is glad, not
from any selfish reasons, but purely
from the fact that his suddenly ac-
quired wealth will increase his ability
to do more good for his flock Phil
anthropy and devotion to works of
charity have always been the main
characteristics of the stock yards pas
tor. and he has announced that he is
going to spend it all for the benefit of
his church and people. 1t will, he
says. relieve suffering and make many
homes happier. and that he will enjoy
the giving of it away in works of char
ity and for the benefit Of his church
more than he would in any other way.
The results of his untiring energy are
to be seen in his fine church and the
high and grammar schools, which are
the pride Of the parochial system Of
Chicago His benefactions have been
without end, and among those who
have been the constant recipients of
his help and sympathy are the Little
Sisters of the Poor and the Sisters of
the Good Shepherd.

teachings and precepts of Christianity.
What, them is the legal status of the
Christian Science Church? In what re-
spect does 1t differ in it's legal stand
ing from any other religious move
ment? What is there to place 1t out
side the protection guaranteed to re-
ligions of any kind or of all kinds?
There is but one possible limitation
upon it's right to full and complete
recognition and protection. Only on
the ground that Christian Science as a
system is inherently immoral or other
wise dangerous to the community, and
that immoral or injurious effects would
follow it's practical application, would
it come within any constitutional in
hibition. Inasmuch as the whole pur-
pose of Christian Science is to incul-
cate the highest morality and the best
health, it is difficult to conceive how
it could be construed as immoral, dan
gerous or injurious to the public.
Those who have made the most care
full study of the teachings of Christian
Science, and who are, therefore, the
most competent to pass upon it, have
become convinced that it is based upon
the Scriptures, as interpreted from the
highest ethical and spiritual stand
point; that it is more especially an
amplification of the Mosaic Decalogue
that, in their own experience, they
have been able in wonderful and graft
flying ways to prove the truth of such
teaching For many years have the
adherents of this faith been proving
their faith by their works The facts
relating to these works are as suscep-
tble of proof as are any other facts.
Indeed. they are now so we'll known
that they are quite generally admit
hnff a n
how they are accomplished In some
Instances committees of Legislatures
having before them proposed bills for
the restriction or prohibition of Chris
tian Science practice have heard testi-
mony of healing by this method, with
the result, so far as l am aware, that
the proposed bills have never passed
the committee. They evidently became
convinced of the truth of the Christian
Science claim of ability to heal disease.
Quotes Other Views
In this connection 1 take the liberty
to quote the words of Judge Clifford
p. Smith of the District Court of Iowa,
in a recent pamphlet relating to Chris
tian Science and Legislation. The
Judge says.
Christian Scientists rely on the
practice of their religion to prevent and
cure disease, and for very good rea-
sens. The principal reasons which OBJ
tain with the great majority are these:
!. they have need of relief from sick
ness or bad habits and have failed to
obtain it by other means; 2, they have
found Christian Science to be supe-
rior curative agent, even curing dis
eases which other systems deem incur
able; 8, they believe it to be the cura-
tive agent of God, that Christ Jesus
used the same method, and commanded
ell His followers to do likewise; A, they
believe that the practice of Christian
Science will ultimately overcome and
abolish evil, sickness and suffering,
ard thus deliver the human race from
the law of sin and death. For these
reasons and others-such, for instance,
as the fear Of i'll effects from drugs

claims they have so successfully vim
dicated for themselves, and to assist
| them In the effort to extinguish all
forms of healing save their own. So
ciety, however, does not forget, and 1t
| may, therefore, be pardoned If 1t sees
in this fusion of the schools something
beyond the philanthropic desire to pro-
| tect the public health.
| Is there Scriptural authority for heal
| ing disease by means of drugs and
medicines? We maintain that fair
reading and analysis of Scripture teach
| ing answers this question in the mega
| tive. The whole system of materia
medica has it's foundation in the teach
| ing and practice of the schools of phil
osophy antedating the inauguration of
| the Christian era. Even in the Old
| Testament we read much of healing
| through spiritual means and prayer.
| Old Testament statements such as this
from the 103d Psalm are numerous:
| "Bless the Lord, o my soul, and for
get not all his benefits: who forgiveth
all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy
| diseases"
Teachings Are Plain
The teachings of Jesus are very plain
and explicit He thus commanded His
disciples:
go not into the way of the Gentiles,
and into any city of the Samarftans
enter ye not: but go rather to the lost
sheep of the house of Israel.
"And as ye go. preach. saying, The
kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers,
raise the dead, cast out devils: freely
We have received. freely give.
"Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor
| brass in your purses,
Nor scrip for your journey, neither
| two coats neither shoes, nor yet slaves:
| for the workman is worthy OF his
meat."-Matthew TO-
| At the close of the book of Matthew
we find His final commandment:
Go We therefore, and teach all ma
tions, baptizing them in the name OF
| the Father, and of the Son, and or the
Holy Ghost.
| "Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you:
and, 10, 1 am with you alway, even
unto the end of the world"
While in the fourteenth chapter of
John he utters the following plain in
| junction
'Veriiy, verify, I say unto you, He
| that believeth on me, the works that i
do shall he do also. and greater works
than these shall he do; because go
unto my Father"

large and cver-increasing number OF
intelligent and law-abiding citizens rely
on Christian Science to prevent or cure
disease, and others are constantly turn
| ing to 1t after materia medica has
failed to heal or relieve them.
Appeals to Fairness
I'VE submit to all fair-minded per-
sons, and especially to those who cher
ish American traditions and respect
constitutional limitations, that the fact
Just stated ought to preclude the en-
actment or existence of any law cal
culated to forbid or hinder citizens
from relying on Christian Science or
employing Christian Science practi-
toners in case of sickness. Aside from
the constitutional questions which are
involved, we assert that the drugging
system has not become SO certain IN
ITS results as to be entitled to prohibit
people from going outside and employ
i2g other means and methods to OBJ
tain relief. When any system OF
healing reaches the stage of develop
ment, and it's practitioners exhibit the
| uniform success which will warrant
them in asking monopoly, they Will
not need or want an act OF the LeglS-
lature for that purpose"
L
able and exhaustive treatise: Chris
tan Scientists are not making an at
tack on medical doctors. We have the
| greatest respect for the motives ana
ttainments of the better class OF
| physicians. We are also aware that not
rearly all of the medical profession
probably not a majority at present
desire legislation against Christian Sci
ence The more cultivated, broad
minded and successful physicians labor
10 alleviate pain and sickness, leaving
Christian Science to rise or fall by It's
own merits or demerits. Many of them
show a friendly interest in our work
and an increasing percentage of them
advise their patients to try Christian
Science as last resort.
Source of Attacks
"The cact remains that the efforts
to obtain legislation against Christian
Science have in every instance eman-
ated, directly or indirectly. from the
medical profession and usually from
medical societies. Many such efforts
have been made, often with great prep
aration and years of political activity.
This has been a prominent feature OF
nearly all the more recent efforts. The
fact that the demand for legislation
against Christian Science comes from
the medical doctors, and not from the
people generally has been noticed by
all whose official duty has brought
them in contact with the subject.
Thus Governor Mickey of Nebraska
vetoed a bill for law aimed at Chris
tian Science practice in 1905. In his
veto message he referred to the fact
just stated as follows: Without in
any degree rejecting upon the motives
OF the Legislature, it Is difficult to
avoid the conclusion that the bill was
conceived in a spirit of professional in
tolerance AS originally introduced,
the measure bore upon osteopaths with
the same rigor that 1t does upon Chris
tan Scientists, and when it is recalled
that homeopaths, eclectics and other
now well-recognized schools of healing,
as we'll as osteopaths, have had to

along the lines of that religion. Its
first settlements were in its name, and

of it's highest credentials to the title of
a Christian nation. The great thought
of the Master was that over the human
soul there was no earthly sovereign.
There is no truth which shines more
clearly through the gospels and the
epistles than that of the independence
of the human soul. In that great forum
