STILL GIVING REBATES

New York. Aug. 28.-A. B. Stick
ney, long president Of the Chicago
Great Western, whose charges that
the railroads still are granting re-
bates just as before the passage of
the Hepburn rate law, is aboutsto be
investigated by the interstate com
merce commission, outlined in an In
teryiew yesterday what he regards
as the proper method to pursue to
do away with the alleged abuses.
The favoriteaway Of granting re-
rebates now, stickney said. was to al
low claims for overcharges for dam
ages presented by large shippers.
Claims Of this kind presented by large
favored shippers. stickney said, were
promptly paid by the railroads.
Discrimination In rates also was
practiced, Stickney said, by putting
obscure rates in the rate schedule.
He instanced in this connection the
inclusion in the Western roads tariffs
of the rate on Illuminating oil and
another much lower rate on products
|of petroleum" The attention Of the
favored shippers, he said. was called
. the latter rate.
AS a remedy for rebate evils. Stick
ney suggested as the first essential
the simplifcation of rates and as
means to this end the adoption Of a
uniform classification. What ought to
be done, stickney said. was to do
away entirely with commodity rates
and reduce all rates to class rates at
the same time increasing tn enumber
Of classes to a sufficient extent to per-
nit an equitable adjustment of rates
between the various classes of mer-
lchandise.

I have briefly presented this idea
Of divine law, fulfilled in Love by
way of anticipating that frequent
remark that Christian Science Is
neither Christian nor scientific.
What does II mean to have a
science? You well know that science
implies classified understanding; il
requires a law which must lee pre-
scented inits unity, orderand system.
This is precisely what Christian
Science does. 1t presents this divine
law ln its unity, order and system,
with such precision and accuracy
that Christian healing prevails by
way ofproot. II + therefore eminent

II Christian Science were simply an
Intellectual pastime, touching only
the emotions and sentiments Of men,
Il could never emulate the mercy Of
primitive Christian healing. On the
contrary, Il appeals to their highest
moral and serlptual nature. and
leads them to lind in God a sure re-
ward for trusting in Him. Il IS a
prophet OF good tidings promising
d%eliverance from pain, suffering and
disease and by the accomplishment
OF this deliYerance, its truth has been
established. II has challenged at
tention, not because OF any failure,
but because OF its success in good
works. Indeed It's most uncompro-
missing critics arr now ready 70 adj
NIT that Christian Science has made
good its claim to a healing re-
Iigion.
Possibly the largest part OF song
and OF verse has been inspired By the
tragedy OF life. The mystery OF suf-
iering has compelled even the most

Science really is, amounts to
nothing; they are valueless. If
Cristian Science was a fad it
