THE AMERICAN SINGER

failures of SO many ambitious but misguided
students.
A well meaning American who spends a
small fortune on some young womans edu-
cation abroad, too frequently only assumes
that her protegee is talented; she does not
know l have known of many church choir
singers sent to study in Europe. Your kind
hearted church people make up purses and
send these ambitious girls to Paris Now, it
is quite the usual experience, judge from
what many artists have told me, that girl
who accepts such a purse obtains at this
time more money than she ever had in her
life. She has the necessary funds to finance
her student career abroad but the chances
are that she goes to Paris minus the qualities
essential for the very success she wishes to
attain.
l remember one young man who went to
Paris to study. He had always been very
poor; SO poor in fact, living on the small pay
of clerk, that he never had money to enjoy
any sort of pleasure. An American philan-
thropist who was fond of helping young
people heard him sing one night at charity
affair, and admired his voice. Soon after,
the philanthropist sent for him and, learning
his ambition to study in Europe, generously
supplied him with funds for this purpose.

Of course the money given was in his eyes
really small fortune. But SO much money
proved his undoing. He told me he had
never touched liquor until he came to Paris
Then he took to drinking. 1t finally ruined
him, and two years ago he died drunkard's
death.
Illustrations of such misdirected ambition
and waste of money are constantly recurring
to one who is in position to observe them.
We all know that most of the great artistic
successes have been won through bitter
struggle with poverty and in the most dis
heartening circumstances. 1t is beyond ar
gurnent that suffering seems to bring out the
best in the artist Great talent will always
make itself heard. The suffering endured
by Our artists no doubt gave that soul quail

human response in an appreciative audience.
1t should be borne in upon young and en-
thusiastic students who 60 abroad to cult
vate their voices that money is only one of

Fenton sized him up and took step tor

"What?"
"The locket, of course. You say you've

Fenton realized now how foolish he had
been ever to speak of the robbery. He re-
solved to humor the reporter till he could
get rid of him. THAT story about the
stolen jewels was all a joke he added.

"The fact is" said Fenton, "Ive given my
word of honor not to tell"
"Ah,' said the reporter, compromising a
felony? All right, then, I'll tell you what
I'll do. One last proposition--going going,
gone! I've got to hang round Eldridge-st. to
catch girl who ought to be due there pretty
soon, according to my tip. My paper wants
her, and also have some important news to
give her-I've got to break a sad tale. We
reporters get queer Jobs. Now if you'll come

Fenton reluctantly consented. He wash t
anxious to become conspicuous by attacking
the reporter, much as he wanted the locket,
and Richmond's proposition seemed the
easiest way of getting up town. They
walked along Canal-st., therefore, and turned
into Eldridge-st. In the middle of the block
Richmond turned Fenton into pair of tene-
ment house steps that commanded a view
of both sidewalks.
They sat down, perched a little above the
dirty pavement where the Submerged Tenth
traded, played, or promenaded in front of
them. Keeping his quick eye alert upon the
passerby, Richmond produced roll of Ha-
vana cigarettes and, lighting one from the
other, smoked them in chain as he narrated
his tale.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Christian Science Treatment

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
The expressions of the writer's in Les
lies magazine as given in the extract re-
Gently published in your columns concern
ing Mrs. Eddy are deeply imbued with the
material view of life which holds that
man exists solely in a material body.
While Mrs. Eddy's teachings give the
viewpoint of the spiritual facts of life.
those teachings do not deny In the human
consciousness 'the physical experiences
OF life, especially those involving sick
ness and suffering" as the writer averred.
The principles OF Christian Science are
such as may be applied in every legiti-
mate department of activity, and are
therefore eminently practical and full of
common or good sense They inculcate
compassion and helpfulness in an efficaci-
Gus way. The writer made the usual
mistake of the adverse critic of Christian
Science in supposing that nothing is be-
ing done when the metaphysical or
spiritual treatment of disease is en-
pioyed. I affirm that more is being done
than in any other method. and in this
statement an ever increasing number of
those who have had some experience In
the relief given will bear me out. In this,
however, as in the transmission of speech
by telephone we cannot expect those who
fnoW HotHlng q tne experience TO real
lie it,
Many eminent physicians in this coun-
try have recently stated in public that
there is no known remedy for pneumonia.
1.-THE only thing that can be done for
1t is to keep the patient nourished as well
as possible and take good care of him"
just view of Mrs Eddy's recent ex-
perience would conclude that she has
done remarkably wei Ito start out as
an invalid recover her health, weather
the storms of persecution in the midst of
an extraordinary amount of hard work.
and live in the flesh until she was almost
90. Christian Scientists do not refuse to
do anything alone medicinal lines for the
purpose of being fanatically loyal to re-
ligious belief, but because they have a
very remarkable substitute. They choose
what they have demonstrated to be the
better part
Upon what ground could any one az
firm that given case which is not healed
in Christian Science treatment could be
healed under medical treatment. since
medical treatment fails continually in all
kinds of cases?
1t is estimated that 10000 people die
every Gay, mostly under medical treat
ment. Inasmuch as Christian Science
has saved a number of cases which had
failed to recover under medical treatment,
is it not reasonable to assume that those
who died under Christian Science treat
mont would have gone even sooner if
they had not had Christian Science treat
ment, and that those who died under
medical treatment might have lived long
err IL they had had Christian Science
treatment? IDA HODNETT.
