MAKING MEDICINE A SCIENCE

VOU know that even the foremost medical
men will admit there has always been
deal of guessing in their profession and their
great aim is to do away with this guessing
OF course medicine has made enormous prog
ress in a quarter of a century; but when it
comes to the treatment of individual cases
yours and mine, for instance-there is heap
OF guesswork The good men have resented
this. For years they nave known that mighty
struggles were going on in the bodies of their
patients, the fight of health against disease,
and they had to guess at its progress and
guess not only what remedies to use, but the
quantity as well-dosage they call it.
An English army surgeon, Dr. a. f. Wright,
who is coming over here to lecture before
scientific bodies, has found out how a ply
sician can see the way the fight is going He
can have facts to work upon, instead OF guess
ing. Even conservative doctors declare that
this means the end of disease; although that
end is a long way off. OF course.
DR.. Leonard Kcene Hirshbers OF Johns
Hopkins University, chairman OF the research
committee of the American Association for
Clinical Research, tells about it in our next
SUNDAY MAGAZINE. It is one OF the most
interesting as we'll as one OF the most mpor-
tant articles we have ever published, because
of the value of the facts themselves and the
clearncSs with which they are presented. 1t
is really dramatic, and it is not often that
scientific article has that great merit.
Perhaps you know that in Our healthy
blood are certain hard working, savagely be-
nefcent bacteria which gobble up disease
germs with might and main. SO long as these
kindly agents can work at their maximum
efficiency. we keep well. When they lose
their vgor and can fight only in half hearted
way so that disease germs get the mastery,
we become sick. That much has been known
for a long time. DR.. Wright has found out
how to measure. in each individual case, the
efficiency OF the leucocytes, as these protect

ors of our health are termed. and to know
exactly what the treatment is accomplishing,
irrespective of what are known as symptoms.
Everybody. even laymen, knows that symp-
toms are often highly misleading. Dr. Hrsh-
berg points out that this marks the real be-
ginning of medical precision. The physician
no longer has to work in the dark. He can
aim in the light, and straight at the mark.
You will read this article on the opsonic
method Chat is the technical term Dr. Wright
invented) with the kecnest interest. and with
the realization that this article alone would
make our next number worth while. But
without it the forthcoming issue would reach
very high standard.

THE GOLDEN LAND OF DREAMS

has a sure. fine appeal Il is poem by
Herbert Kaufman. but unlike the dynamic
verse with which his name is usually asso-
ciated. This is pure love lyric, and you
know that always appeals to us in way all
the time, and in some particular mood 1t
seems that it is a special message made for us
alone. That is true OF all good poetry. There
is very beautiful illustration by Franklin
Booth.
THE prize competitor in our next issue is
strange narrative with a powerful psy-
Geological interest. 1t presents a mystery
that has the stamp OF reality. and II Is this
reality that gives the horror OF the sufferer
a certain dignity. 1t is called The Red.
Red Leaves. and was written by Waldo
Curyca Walker.

smaa Synder, men like fra de store. Men De skal

4. Helligaandens Vidnesbyrd.

Nogle Dage senere overtog Elna Pladsen hos
Enkefru Hunter. Hun blew vel tilfreds i sin nye
Plods og var meget afholdt at den rige Enkefrue;
thi Pigen var dygtig til sit Arbejde og meget ven
lig sin Omgang. Hun gledede sig storigen / Aan-
del over Frelsen Kristus Jesus. Hun bes6gte ofte
Dora og Dora hende. ON Sqndagen var hun som
Regel altid Kirke baadc ON Formiddagen og ON
Aftenen. Fru Hunter var selv en- nidk@r Kristen
og tilhorte samme Kirke, som Fru Harris, Hun hay-
de aldrig noget Selskab ON Sdndagen, som kunde
lagge Beslag paa Tjenestepigen og hindre denne
i at komme Guds Hus. Hun holdt meget af Elna,
og sagde flere Gange til Fru Harris: ,,Jeg har med
Eliza faaet en- lille Sol ind nit Hem"
Elna, der smart efter blew optaget som Med
lem af Menigheden, blew ogsaa smart godt kendt
med flere af Familierne som indb6d hende til Be-
sg deres Hem, hyilke Indbydelser hun med Gle-
de og TAX tog imod og fulgte thi hun havde me-
gen It'd til sin Raadighed.
Nogle af de f9rste, hun besogte, var William
Hansens, en- kar troende Familie, hv1s HEM aitid
stod aaben for Guds Folk. Konen var bleven vakt
/ en- Sygdom for flere Aar siden, og hun havde I'M
der mango Bonner og stor Sjeleangest kempet
sig igennem de dybe Vande til Livet Gud, Vejle-
Diet af Rosinius' Skrifter; thi den Gang var der IN
gen troende Prpst i Rutspring, og helige Legfolk
skulde man lede lenge efter. Hun sogte og kem-
pede lenge. linden hun fandt Fred men da hun
kom igennem, blew hun en- af de solide iblandt Her
rens Flok, og Pastor Bruins Menighed, hvor hun
og hendes Mand nu var Medlemmer, agtedes hun
som en- af Grundpillerne iblandt Kvinderne. Hun
var en- inderlig ker Sjel, fast og u~rokkelig l Tro-
en- paa Guds Ord. Men paa Grund at den Made,
hvorpaa hendes Omvendelse var %foregaaet, havde
hun somme Tider v~anskelig we'd at forstaa nyom-
vendte Mennesker iser iblandt de unge.
Da Elna tog Asked, kom Fru Hansen til at
sperge hende: ((Har du den Helligaands Vidnes-
byrd dit Hjerte, at du er ct Guds Barn3"
Elna havde endnu like tenkt meget over den
Sag. Hun hayde levet Gleden den korte It'd, hun
havde veret en- Kristen; derfor svarede hun und-
vigende paa SpGrgsmaalet.
Fru Hansen fattede Mistanke og sagde: ,,Jeg
frygter, at du er kommen for let igennem. Du har
visit like veret langt nok nede thi dersom den Hell
ligaand like vidner med din Aand ON dine Borne
kaar, da har du bedraget dig selv."
Aldrig for havde Elna gaaet saa tung en- Gang
som den Aften, da hun forlod William Hansens Hus.
Hun SOW like meget den Nat, og Dagen efter var
hun til Dels syg baade paa Legeme og Sj@l. Hun
havde givet Tvivlen Rum og sluppet den glade Tro.
ON Eftermiddagen gk hun hen til Dora. Denne
kunde Sc, at Elna havde gredt, og hun anede, der
var noget Vejen, hvorfor hun paa en- kerig Maa-
de spurgte sin veninde ON Aarsagen til hendes
skjulte ingenting for Dora.
Portable Fru Hansen dig da like, hvorledes
den Helligaand giver vidnesbyrd," spurgte Dora.

har mine Synders Forladelse, 3" sagde Elna, da Sam
talen optoges igen.
EFT Menneske frelses af Made, naar Diet tror
Gud paa hans Ord, . svarede Pastor Brun. ,,F6lelse
har intet med den Sag at gore. Jeg kan like f9le,
at jeg er ct Guds Barn, eller at jeg har mine Syn
ders Forladelse; men jeg tror det thi jeg tror Gud,
som siger Diet til mig sit Ord. Og derover fSler
jeg mig glad. Selvf9lgelig kan De like yere glad
thi De tror ike Gud og har like modtaget Synder-
mes Forladelse med Troens Hand. Man kan like
fele noget, som man like har. Tro Gud paa hans
Ord og modtag derived MAIDEN, saa skal De nok
komme til at f6le Dem glad. Gleden Kristus er
en- F6lge af Troen. Den felger efter Troen, men
kan aTdrig gaa forud for Troen. bet er Dievelen,
der setter den foran Troen thi han vii standse
den s9gende Sjel i noget tomt F9leri, saa den like
skal komme til at hvile Troen paa Ordets taste
Grund.''
,Nu ~forstaar jeg Dem, Pastor Brun, svarede
Elna. ,Troen maa man have fGrst thi 1roen er den
Hand, hyormed man ~modtager MAIDEN. Jeg maa
fsrst have Troen og siden ~modtage MAIDEN"
,,Nej visit like svarede Presten ,,Troen og
Modtagelsen kan like adskilles; thi dersom De
tror Gud paa hans Ord ON MAIDEN, saa m~odtager
De derived Maiden, og da beviser De derived, at de
tror Gud.
Den, der tror Gud, ~besegler, at Gud er sand
dru; men den der like tror ham, gsr Gud til en-
L9gner."
,,Jeg tror, at Gud err Sandhed, og jeg tror, at
Bibelen err Sandhed, men Diet, som Diet kniber for
mig med at tro, err, at mine Synder err tilgivet. Jeg
tror godt nok, at Herren frelser Syndere af Made
alene og forlader dem allie deres synder; men nit
Hierte har endnu like Hvile !, at mine Synder er
.borttaget.
,,Lige saa meget, som De tror, tror ogsaa Dja-
velen, - sagde Prasten.
Elna blew blusseude ROD Ansigtet og saa sper-
gende paa Presten.
Presten CAV hende Bibelen og bad hende l@se
ct Vers, og Elna leste:
,,Dersom vi bekende wore Synder, er han tro-
fast og retferdig, at han forlader os s~ynderne og
renser os fra al Uretferdighed."
Sc nu Elna," sagde Pastor Brun," De siger
selv, at De har bekendt Deres Synder for Jesus og
bedet ham ON Made, og nu siger Herren her Diet
Vers, som De leste, at han forlader Synden, naar
De bekender den. De har altsaa hans Ord for, at
Deres Synder err forladt; men hvis De like vii tro
Diet, saa ger De Gud til en- Lsgner."
,,Hvor STAIR Diet, at man gsr Gud til en- L6gner,
naar man like tror ham, spurgte Elna.
,,Les selv,'' sagde Presten og CAV hende BIZ
belen, og Elna leste hejt:
.,Hvo, som like tror Gud, har gjort ham til
en- Legner, fordi han har like troet paa Diet Vid-
nesbyrd, som Gud har vidnet ON sin SON"
