The fool-killer., 1910-01-01

Massa-chews-it, in the State of
Boston,"
| knew Mac had reference to
the "Christian Science MONITOR"
but | remained eloquently silent,
and Mac proceeded:
'1've been reading every word
of the christian Silent Monster
fer several weeks, and Eve larnt
more than | ever knowed before.
In fact, Pm a full-blooded Chris
tian Scientist with all the latest
attachments. Christian Silence
is a great developer of the SUBJ
ways of mental confusion, and |
feel sorry fer all you shaller-
minded folks what amt got into
the transmografyin' light Of it all.
Why, man, it's all a mistake a.
bout there being anything in the
world. Also there amt any world.
1t just seems to us like there is a
world and things in it, and there
fore we say they exist, but they
don't. It's all a mental delusion.
For instance, when the daily pa
pers tell about a train wreck they
are just feeding their readers on
moonshine. Here is the way the
christian Silent Monster would
tell it: The alleged passenger
train which is supposed to run be-
tween the imaginary towns of
New Delphia and Philamayork,
appeared to fall from a high trestle
early yesterday morning, and a.
bout fifty alleged passengers who
thought they we're on the train,
were seemingly very much jolted
up and buried beneath the imagin-
airy wreckage. The fragments
of the supposed passengers were
apparently distributed along the
track for three hundred yards, and
the fool passengers seemed to i'm
agine that they were dead. 1t is
a great pity that people will be
led astray by such delusions.'"
Every edifying," says l when
he had finished, but if every
thing else is imaginary, isn't it
likely that Christian Science is
imaginary, too! Maybe you just
suppose you believe like you i'm
agine you think you do, and may
be that isn't real, either.'
"Oh, yes, Christian Silence is a
sure-enough reality, an it is the
only real thing in all this unrea.
universe. Everything else is i'm.
aginary. You take pain, fer ex.
ample. People are always com.
planning of having pains in then
body. Now that's all nonsense. !
amt had an ache nor pain abou'
me since | begun to be a Christian
Scientist. | just believe that there
is not any such thing as pain, ane
therefore | am never bothered
with-Oh! murder! What il
the devil was that!' he yelled
jumping to his feet and cIawins
at the seat of his pants.
