Religion Is Progress.

Religion Is Progress.
This is an age of practical achieve
ment, and Christian Science is in thor
ough accord with the demands made
for proofs. 1t lives and grows in fa-
vor with the needy of the earth by
reason Of its fruits. Christian Science
makes no claim which it cannot sub
stantiate and so, in this day of ad-
vance in every department of human
activity, IL is demonstrating its right
to be known as the religion of pro-
gress.
Not that God who constitutes the
basis, foundation, and Principle of all
true religion, ever changes or pro-
crosses; rot that the teachings Of Jes-
us the Christ, the Founder of Christi
anity. need to be revised or the Bible
rewritten. We read in the Scriptures
that with God there is neither varia-
bleness nor shadow of turning; we
also believe that the precepts and
warnings of Jesus can never become
antiquateI, and that the Bible of our
fathers, the great treasure-house of
Christendom when spiritually inter-
preted by Christian Science suffices
for our daily needs. The thread Of
gold which CLEANS throughout the
fabric of the Bible will shine forth
forever to be apprehended by the re-
ceptive thought everywhere.
So it is not new Bible which
Christian Science contemplates. but
one and the same Bible. explained IN
a spiritually progressive manner. 1t
is not a new God which it proclaims
but the only true God, our Father
which is IN heaven. 1t makes no at
tempt at an improved Christ, for there
is but one Christ, who is in the bosom
OF the Father. perfect, eternal and in
destructible. Christian Science is pro-
gressive and marks an advance in re-
ligion because it throws the strong
light of Science upon the nature and
attributes of Deity, upon the teach
ings and works of the Christ, and be-
cause 1t picks out from the Bibles

Synopsis of Address.

The message of Christian Science is
simple and straightforward and re-
spends to a universal need. 1t is not
easily treated as an academic theme,
nor is 1t, strictly speaking, a dehatable
question, because it provides the proof
of it's own correctness, day by day and
hour by hour, and these proofs are
final and convincing. Christian Sci
ence does more than preach or prom
Use. II fulfils. While II arouses the
noblest aspirations and expectations
of mankind, it also justifies its teach
ings by definite results. Like the good
Samaritan. it comes to those who have
fallen among thieves whom false
conceptions have robbed of health and
happiness. whom material methods
have passed by on the other side, and
pours into their wounds the oil and
wine of gladness and inspiration, takes
them to the inn of shelter, and leaves

Ellis Close to Taft.

The probable appointment of Ellis
comes as decided surprise. While in
congress, Ellis was a consistent sup
porter and friend of President Taft.
AS a candidate for Malcolm's place
Ellis is believed to have the hearty
support of Representative Hawley in
addition to the cordial offices of the
president himself. Hawley and Ellis
have been intimate in their official
relations at Washington.
For several days it has been inti-
mated strongly in political circles that
President Taft would not send to the
senate the name of either Malcolm
or Colwell for further consideration
in the way of reappointment to Of
fices they now hold. In the regular
session the nominations of these men
for reappointment were reported up
on unfavorably by the committees to
which they were referred. Rather
than have the nominations fail of
confirmation by the senate, the pres
ident withdrew the names of both ap-
pointees. At the last minute, the
president sent Colwell's appointment
back to the senate, but congress ad-
iourned before any action could be
taken, Malcolm, having once been
confirmed, continues to hold office
until his successor is appointed and

an alignment between Representa-

Lafferty's friends, however, insist that
he is pursuing an Independent course

How Scientific Methods Raised tho
Standard of Days Work.
There are now eminent consulting
engineers who are engaged by indus
trial heads to study their establish
ments from top to bottom with view
TO finding by scientific study the meth
DDS of working, accounting and han
ding labor which will improve on the
old traditional habits. Some extraordi-
nary results have been attained. What
scientific management means is ad-
mirably illustrated by the story of
bricklaying, as told by an expert.
Ordinarily brick mason makes
eighteen different sets of motions In
laying n single brick. He bends over,
in the first place, to pick up one brick,
and In lifting It he lifts ten pounds of
brick and about a hundred pounds of
brick mason-the upper part OF his
own body In laying I 900 N-icks In n
days work he lifts 100000 pounds of
brick mason This VAS nm obvious
waste of labor SO common laborer
was hired TO put the bricks where the
masons would not have to stoop for
them. Another thing is that when a
mason picks up handmade brick,
which Is always n little thicker at one
side than on the other. he losses the
brick up. turning It over until his
touch tells him which side is the top
before he puts il In place In the wall.
The cure for this was 10 have all the
bricks piled top up before they were
brought TO the masons. Then, further,
every one his seen the mason tap his
brick several times TO settle II into the
mortar-mOrc waste ~ time. The cure
was to make the mortar thinner, 80
that the weight of the brick would set
tie 1t into the right position. This was
scientific management. motion study"
II raised the days wc"k for the aver
age brick mason from leo up to 2,700
bricks day and in individual cases to
much higher figures. The mason made
only six motions where he used to
make eighteen.-American Review of

she drove to the studio in her victoria.

"Goodby. l would advise you to try

This kind Of skirmishing had been
going on for weeks between Marcella
Laraway and Major Harrington. The
majors attentions had been the talk
of the garrison for the reason that
Miss Laraway had turned down" Of
ficers of higher rank and in some cases
more ample fortune. 1t was expected
that Harrington would join the innu-
merable caravan the lady was send
ing into the desert never to return.
Notwithstanding the bold face the
mayor had put on the matter while in
the presence of Miss Laraway, he no
sooner left her than he became as limp
as wet rag. He went to his quarters.
threw himself into an easy chair, lit a
pipe and gave himself over to rev.
erie which was anything but hopeful.
The adage Faint heart never won

pressed than usual 1t was a matter of
common talk in the garrison that Cen
eral Snigson was eager to marry
again, and recently he had shown at
tentions to Miss Laraway. His having
invited her to join his staff in the sham
battle was especially noticeable, for he
was known to deprecate the presence
of women in the line of duty. More
over, Harrington believed that Miss
Laraway would prefer to be Mrs. Cen
eral to being Mrs. Major.
