The opinion has been current among
medical men that the Christian Science
movement was only fad that would
| spend itself in time if let alone. Many
have felt that to attack the cult would
simply give it the publicity that was
desired, and by creating the possible
! idea of martyrdom would only add
fuel to the fame. Many medical men
hesitated to openly express them
selves for fear of exciting the critic
ism of selfish motives. AS a conse-
quence we have seen this terrible
mental affliction sweep over COM
munities and not voice has been
raised to save the people from their
folly. Should this baneful thing be
allowed to continue with it's infinite
possibilities for harm? Most assured
ly not and We believe it only needs
an Intelligent campaign of education
to show the thinking masses what a
peril exists in the pernicious and fall
lacious teaching of Christian Science.
If the science of medicine and
modern sanitation have the founda-
I1OA IudI VIC OC11CFOS IL
only remains for us to point out the
facts to save those who have sound
minds and are capable of reasoning
! from cause to effect. Untruths and
mistakes cannot flourish in the light
of truth and incontrovertible facts.
Christian Science is constant
menace. 1t denies every tenet on
which modern sanitation and prophy-
laxis are based. Let pestilence or
epidemic come into our midst and the
attitude of the Christian Scientists
means a calamity such as the world
has never seen. Some may think this
exaggeration, but the secrecy concern
ing the afflicted that would obtain
would place obstacles in the way of
the health authorities that would seri-
ously handicap the work of stamping
out a virulent infection. Already
many innocent lives have been sacri-
feed by the blind fanaticism of the
Christian Scientists. 1t is shame
that helpless children have been the
victims, but they have, and many
more will go down to the grave before
this monster is uprooted from our
civilization. Already there is healthy
antagonism developing in the churches
of the land and the intelligent
clergyment and priests of the coun-
try are taking a definite stand against
the evils that are so evident. Surely
the medical profession in view of all
that has been done to- safeguard the
people by medical registration, and
the various sanitary laws, cannot
stand by and see the work of years
jeopardized by ignorance and fanatic
ism.
No, the time is ripe for a militant
spirit in medical affairs, and if the
splendid accomplishments of medi-
cine, hygiene and sanitation cannot
triumph by sheer truth over the ri
diculous, ill-founded and perverted
teachings of Christian Science, then
we are working and striving in vain.
But such is not the case and right
is bound to prevail. Christian Science
is bound to fall when the people are
shown it's fallacies.

The Story of a Violin

Of all the musty little shops in the
crooked Rue St. A., old Hamel's
was perhaps the most So; and yet it
was before this shop that an open car
riage suddenly stopped one summer
morning, and the foreign-looking gen.
tleman who alighted entered the dusty
doorway. Inside the shop he paused
before an odd tumble of curious
things-cobwebby little marble statu-
cites, bits of quaint porcelain, queer
old musical instruments, and here and
there a gilt canary cage hanging
above. From the mist of this medley
the sound of clear, sweet violin
arose, and fioated past the gentleman
through the shop to the street. In
fact, it was just that which had
caused the gentleman to stop his car
riage here.
What would Monsieur be pleased
to have?" inquired the old shopkeeper
II heard some one playing violin
in here" replied the gentleman. Ell
seemed a sweet-toned instrument;
and, seeing those others in your win
dow there, thought it might be fol
sale. Is it so?"
"Oh, certainly! There are some fine
instruments here, and great bargains
This that you have done me the honor
to admire is a genuine Stradivarius.
Monsieur cut him short.
AYE, but just bring out whoever
is playing back there, and let me
hear little more of it. My own ears
are all the recommendation / care
for"
Hamel bowed low,
"Tony, bring the violin in here. MY
grandson, Monsieur" he said, as the
boy entered, who loves better to try
every violin that comes into the shoI
than to earn days wages at selling
No turn for business whatever; ant
that's bad for a boy-very bad, as I've
told him,-however, well he may pla!
| the VIOLIN"
But the boy, with his eyes ben
dreamily upon the violin, scarcel!
seemed to hear. He was a slight
thin-featured lad, with mass of jet
black curling around his neck
which, together with his sweeping
black 1ashes, made him seem pale
than he was.
| The gentleman took OFF his glasses
and rubbed his eyes.
"Your grandson" he repeated
glancing from the boy to the old man
They certainly did not resemble eacl

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. MARTHA, VIRGIN.

St. John tells us that Jesus loved
Martha and Mary and Lazarus" and
yet but few glimpses are vouchsafed
us of them. First, the sisters are set
before us with word. Martha re-
ceived Jesus into her house, and was
busy in outward, loving, lavish serv-
ice, while Mary sat in silence at the
feet she had bathed with her tears.
Then their brother is i'll, and they
sent to Jesus; Lord, he whom Thou
lowest is SICK And in His own time
the Lord came, and they go out to
meet Him; and then follows that
scene of unutterable tenderness and
of sublimity unsurpassed: the silent
waiting of Mary; Martha strong in
faith, but realizing SO wildly, with her
practical turn of mind, the fact of
death, and hesitating; "Can'st Thou
show Thy wonders in the grave?"
And then once again, on the eve of
His passion, we see Jesus at Bethany.
Martha, true to her character, is serv-
ing; Mary, as at first, pours the preci-
Gus ointment, in alteration and love,
on His divine head. When Martha
received Jesus into her house, she
was naturally busy in preparation for
such a guest. Mary sat at His feet,
intent alone on listening to his preci-
GUS words. Her sister thought that
the time required other service than
this, and asked our Lord to bid Mary
help in serving. Once again Jesus
spoke in defence of Mary. Martha,
Martha" he said, thou art lovingly
anxious about many things; be not
over-eager; do thy chosen work with
recollectedness. Judge not Mary. Hers
is the good part, the one only thing
really necessary. Thine will be taken
away, that something better be given
thee" The life of action ceases when
the body is laid down; but the life of
contemplation endures and is per-
fected in heaven. And then we find
the tomb of St. Martha at Tarascon in
Provence. When the storm of perse.
cution came, the family of Bethany,
with a few companions, we're put into
a boat, without oars or sail, and
borne to the coast of France. St.
Mary's tomb is at ST. Baume; ST. Lag
arus is venerated as the founder of
the Church of Marseilles; and the
memory of the virtue and labors of St.
Martha is still fragrant at Avignon
and Tarascon.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.

Christian Science as it is taught
and practiced is blot on modern
civilization, says American Medicine"
1t is high time that the medical pro-
fession took active steps to expose the
fallacies of doctrines that were con-
ceived in ignorance, and as given to
the world, stand as little better than
the rawlings of perverted mentality.
That intelligent beings can accept and
follow the teachings of the mind that
evolved the idea of malicious ami
NAL magnetism" is another strange
Illustration of the psychic depravity
that the human race is subject to
from time to time.

VIOLATING CONDITIONS
OF fire INSURANCE
In Keeping Gasoline on Prem
Uses Without Permit

The fact that many Americas prop
erty owners are violating the clause
in their insurance policies by storing
gasoline upon their premises without
the required permit has been aseer
tanned by local insurance agencies
and there would be difficulty in col
lecting insurance in cases where fire
resulted from this cause
A local agent said yesterday that
this policy clause is being very gen
orally violated here. particularly
among automobile owners. AS he
states, should property be destroyed
where fire resulted from gasoline ex.
plosion the entire policy would be
void, and the loss complete. Permits
to store gasoline in small quantities
are granted under certain restrictions
and conditions.
