than its use in furthering Christian
Science? While 1t is true that few
children have died under Christian
Science treatment, the speaker failed
to show that these could have been
saved by materia medica. Christian
Science children seem to be as a
class. quite as well and happy as the
children Of other people, and there
are on record many instances of the
healing Of children in Christian
Science when all else had failed. The
speaker is energetically exploiting
from the platform one alleged (not
proved) death of a child of Christian
Scientist that did not even have Chris.

Attendance at Services
Relative to the matter of present

to state that in one of our local Chris

profit to the exposition of truth

ways have been at variance with
those of that sect. Her first student
in Christian Science stated in an affi-
davit that he was Spiritualist when
he first studied with Mrs. Eddy, but
after he had taken course of study
with her he lost his belief in Spirit
ualism.
Regarding Mrs. Eddy's Life.
Mrs. Eddy's first husband was a
building contractor and a Mason, a
member OF st. Andrews lodge, No. 10,
and had been exalted, prior to his
death, to the degree Of Royal Arch in
Union chapter No. 8. The minutes of
his lodge bear the record Of his death
and burial. Mrs. Eddy was the widow
of DR.. Asa G. Eddy. and Mr.. Calvin A.
Frye can not truthfully be associated
with her in any other capacity than
that of most faithful friend, a loyal
student and capable assistant in her
various lines OF activity in the interest
of her worldwide movement. Regard
ing the assertion that when Mrs. Eddy
obtained the license to marry Mr..
Eddy she gave her age as forty, which
was less than her age at that time,
it is said that Mrs. Eddy had nothing
whatever to do with this matter; that
DR.. Eddy obtained the license and
gave the age according to his opinion
and not according to his positive
knowledge. and Mrs. Eddy was not
consulted concerning the matter.
Might we not legitimately ask, why SO
much ado about SO inconsequental a
matter?
Denies Quimby's Authorship.
In regard to the Quimby discussion,
it is only necessary to say that al
though Mrs. Eddy was once a patient
of Mr.. Quimby and was for time in
terested in his practice. when she dis
covered Christian Science she was
obliged to abandon everything that
she had adopted from Quimby, and
whether at any time In her experience
she ever believed as Mr.. Quimby did
it is certain that she was obliged to
leave 1t all for Christian Science, since
Christian Science is an immediate and
complete departure from any belief
which might have served as q foun-
dalton for Mr.. Quimby's practice. Ev-
en- those who Cling. to the illusion that
Mrs. Eddy borrowed her ideas from
Mr.. Quimby contradict themselves
by affirming that what she teaches is
entirely apart from Quimbism. Just
how Mrs. Eddy could evolve q system
of treating the sick out of belief
to which it is Numerically opposed,
has never been explained.
The Life of Mary Baker Eddy" by
Sibyl Wilbur, obtainable at the pub
lie library or at either of the local
Christian Science reading rooms, serv-
es to give satisfactory light on the
manuscripts and affidavits, alleged by
this speaker to support his denuncia-
ton of Christian Science and its dis
coverer and founder. Mary Baker Ed
dy. Munsey's Magazine for April

NEED OF A CITY MARKET.

We have believed from the
very start that Mr.. Peace was
everlastingly right in advocating
city market for Henderson.
The market should be located in
a convenient and suitable place
not far from the center Of the
city, but not necessarily on the
main street. 1t should be fully
up-to-date and thoroughly SAM
tary in all of its appointments
and should be under the constant
attention of a competent meat
and market inspector. Here is
one of the present day needs of
Hustling Henderson that ought
not longer to be overlooked. A
number of towns in North Caro-
lima much smaller than Hender-
son already have their city mar
ket. In fact we do not know Of
another town in the State Of ten
thousand inhabitants that is with
out a city market. Shall we get
busy and do something or shall
we be content to sit still and
bring up the rear of the process
sion in this important respect as
well as some others? The Gold
Leaf has nothing to say against
the market men of Henderson.
Indeed it has found them one and
all to be nice fellows, and it has
no doubt that they would all like
to be located in far more suitable
quarters where they could serve
their customers in much better
style. And the little shacks in
which they are located at pres
ent are far from being creditable
to a Wide-aWake city like Hen
derson. The trouble with US as
a town is that while we are wide
awake in most respects, we are
sound asleep in too many other
particulars, and the lack of a
nice city market, properly kept
and supervised, is one of the lat
ter.

THE FARMERS WAREHOUSE.

Col. T. B. Moore, a successful
farmer and prosperous citizen of
Union county. who is here at
tending the Methodist Protes-
tant Conference this week, said
a thing in the Gold Leaf office
yesterday that merits the care
full consideration of every farm
er in North Carolina. While
discussing the low price Of cot
ton he remarked that the farm
ers could7talk and resolute and
do everything else they pleased
but that times would hardly be
better with them until they
adopted the warehouse system
and every North Carolina farmer
had a private warehouse in his
yard and fill it full of home-rais-
ed corn, bacon and lard. In this
view Colonel Moore is everlast-
ingly correct, and most success
full farmers of the State have al
ready arrived at the same con-
clusion.

SHOULD HAVE FIREINsPECTOR.

A leading business man OF this
city asks the Gold Leaf to call
attention to the fact that Hen
derson is very much in need Of a
fire inspector and to urge upon
the board Of aldermen the I'M
portance Of Immediately appoint
ing such an officer clothed with
proper authority. A casual
glance abou. the city will I'M
dOubtedly convince any thinking
citizen that we are badly in need
of a fire inspector with authority
to compel people TO clean up their
premises and put them in order
1t is surprising how many fire
traps exist today right in the
heart of the business section of
Henderson, and almost every
business house in the city is more
or less endangered by them.
Many Of these fire traps exist
on the inside Of business houses,
not to mention those in back lots.
All that is needed to set Hender-
son abIaze right now and almost
any day in the year is for some
careless person to toss lighted
match or the stump of a cigar or
cigarette in one of a hundred or
more piles of accumulated trash
or rubbish in some back lot, alley
or elsewhere. This ought not to
be the case in any progressive
town or city. Suppose you con-
stitute yourself fire inspector
of your own building and premis-
es today and make a most
thorough inspection Of the same.
If. you should find them in good
shape. so much the better for
you. But you might be surpris-
ed to find how careless you have
been with reference to this very
important matter and from how
many sources your building is in
danger of being destroyed by
fire at almost any time by the
careless act of someone. We
were very much surprised when
we first learned that Henderson
has no duly constituted fire in
spector, and the appointment of
such an officer ought not to be
longer delayed.
