to continue in his profession. He
should be prohibited by law from
ever again administering remedies tc
the sick, especially to the stricken
child of the parent who would dare
to call on him for assistance.
That is not the worst that might
happen if the brilliant clergymer
were allowed to pass laws for the
medical and spiritual protection Of
society. If a single individual has
ever attended his preaching services
and continued to commit sins and
sojourn among the wicked, then Rev
Pool himself, by the legitimate oper-
alton he would establish, must ster
down out of the pulpit and yield his
right to teach men and women how
to think and how to act, to some min
lister who never fails to convert every
sinner who hears his voice.
The error of his position is at once
apparent. He shows an appalling ig-
norance of Christian Science practise
when he says that practitioners gath
er around a sick child in its suffering
hours and have ceremony some
thing like ''go away devil and let
the child die without medical assist
ance.' He either willfully misrepre-
sents Christian Science practise and
belief in this statement, or he is
flagrantly ignorant of how its cures
are accomplished.
Christian Science practitioners, do
not claim they can cure anybody,
either adults or children. They, do
claim that an adequate understand
ing of the truth does save the soul
and heal the body. If the practition-
er accomplished anything, he serves
only as the teacher who enables the
one in trouble to grasp the truth OF
being
In the case of children it has been
found that most of their ills are
rothing more than reflected fears OF
the parents. When the belief in evil
by the father or mother is destroyed.
little ones have resumed their health
at once When the parent has been
unable to overcome his or her sense
of fear regarding the child, the cure
has not ben effected In such case,
Christian Science cannot be respon-
sible for the failure to cure.
Let us reverse Rev. Pools rule
and make somthing sensible and
practicable out of it. Allopaths are
allowed to continue in their system
because reasonable number of
cures are accomplished through their
efforts. In the same way, homeo-
paths receive the sanction of law
and society. Osteopaths have come
to be recognized as instrumental in
controlling disease. They are, there
fore, encouraged to continue altho
some of their patients fail to recover.
Applying the same rule to Chris
tian Science, the question resolves it
self into one of whether anybody
ever receives any benefit from it.
Thousands upon thousands all over
the world are daily reporting the
wonderful cures made by under
standing that God is good; that man
is His child and has nothing to fear.
Affidavits of reputable men and
women assert that they have been

dogma, is guilty of twisting the in
spired word to suit personal whim
and selfish motive.
That is the real attitude which
Rev. Pool occupies. AS a Christian
Scientist, sir, | do not censure you
for the eccentricities of interpreta-
ton which are ridiculed by your ene-
mics. You have a perfect right to
your opinions and to express them.
Nor do / consider it to be incumbent
upon me, as a bona fide searcher
for the truth, to accuse you of being
dominated by selfish motives because
you do not see these things as | do
The next criticism is that Mrs.
Eddy has given many words and ex-
prcssions figurative meaning, so
that it is necessary to have CLOS
sary of the Christian Science vocabu-
larry in order to read the literature
intelligently. This is conceded.
That being so, what of it? Is it
any argument that the Scriptures
arc not true because the apostles
found difficulty in finding words in
the pagan tongue of the Greeks to ex-
press their spiritual thoughts? Were
they trying to foist some monstrous
fake upon the thinking men and
women?
Let me say right here, the trouble
with Rev. Pool and with a great
Of ;cti i-
that they are not acquainted with
this vocabulary nor with the essence
of the teaching. The Christian Sci
enlist is told that he believes so and
kind, and that it is not true. Let us
find the point at issue in each in
stance, if possible, then see how
much we can agree upon. My opin-
ion is, my dear sir, we will find more
common ground to stand upon than
you may realize at this moment.
Continuing with the objections
raised by the theological antagonist:
Mrs. Eddy is flatly accused of saying,
in so many words" that the Bible
tells a lie. The instance named is
her Interpretation of the second chap
ter of Genesis.
Here is an excellent illustration of
a gentleman getting excited regard
ing something of which he knows
nothing If he had given Mrs. Eddys
discussion a fair and honest reading,
he c0uld not cOnScientiOuSly hurl
such calumny at the most distin-
guished and respected woman of
this age.
With patience, let it be explained
that Mrs. Eddy absolutely does not
state that the second chapter of Gen
esis or any other portion of the Bible
is lie. She does show that the &C
count given in the first chapter de-
clares man was formed in the image
Of God God is a spirit If man is
in the image of spirit he cannot be
material, then he is not made of dust
The apparent contradiction be-
tween the two accounts of creation
as given in the first two chapters
of Genesis thus being pointed out,
Mrs. Eddy proceeds to elucidate what
seems to be lie She is the one who
proves that. the Scriptures do not lie
in this or any other instance.
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1910-12-08

Her explanation is that the sa-
cred historian Is reporting the two
| prevalent accounts of creation ex-
tant in his day The first appears in
| the first chapter 1t Is correct. He
presents the other narrative in the
second chapter and that is the begin
ming of error which is there pre-
brought such dire consequence to all
who continue to believe in the error
| from that day to this. That error
consisted then, as it does now, in be-
lieving that life can exist in matter;
| that a force exists called evil which
has power in some circumstances Of
| overcoming good; that intelligence
is dependent upon matter for its ex-
preston. Error resulted then in
the shame of Adam and Eve and in
the killing of Abel.
The only salvation today from the
same consequences is to discard the
wrong belief and accept the one
based on the truth that God is spirit;
He is all presence, power and intelli-
sence. Man is made in his image,
just as the first chapter of Genesis
declares. Therefore man is spiritual
He is not dust. The Scriptural writer
gives two theories of existence. Be-
lief in the one leads to health, hap
piness and eternal life; belief in
the other results, as it did in the
case of Adam and Eve and their
family, in sin, disease and death.
A Christian Scientist takes the po-
sition that the Scriptures in their en-
tirety are based upon the fact that
God is spirit; God is good; God is
all. Therefore all is spirit or it's re-
Election; and all is good. Evil does
net exist except as a superstition.
Anyone who will consistently and
sincerely study the Bible account of
the life of Jesus Christ will realize
that his sole mission on earth was
to demonstrate the reality of these
truths in spite of the seeming power
of evil and matter. His death and
resurrection were the final proof
that life does not exist in matter, nor
is good subject to the rule Of evil
Rev. Pool relents somewhat at the
end of his attack. After conceding
to the Christian Scientists the right
to make fools of themselves by dis
agreeing with his Interpretation of
the Scriptures, he says, 1T is our
opinion that there should be a line
drawn between religion ana crimi-
nal neglect of the innocent and help
less" The point to this sally is that
adults of responsible age should be
allowed to accept the promises of
God and to apply the teachings Of
Jesus Christ in their every day lives,
but that they should not be allowed.
under penalty of law, to give their
families the benefit of such a religion.
His argument Is based upon the
assumed fact that some attempts to
cure by means of Christian Science
have failed to save the temporal ex-
istence of the patient.
Suppose that method of reasoning
were applied TO the practice of medi-
cine. Then every physician ii. this

Art of Entertaining.

The secret Of the successful hostess is
to make her guests feel welcome and as
comfortable as possible, and to carefully
plan out and arrange every detail before
the actual day: then should things go
wrong it will be by the merest accident.
If she is giving an informal tea and the
callers are not likely to exceed twelve
the tea should be served in the drawing
room. pouring it out herself and intrust-
ing the delivery of the cups and small
cakes to a girl friend or gentleman WIS.,
itor should the husband not be present.
If the number increases beyond this it
is better to serve the tea in the dining
room. In any case the best available
china should be used, spOtless napery and
glistening silver. Lace-edged or embroid-
cred doilies should be placed on the plates
which hold the cakes and dainty sand
wiches.
