il manifests itself even in worse forms.
The patient is no better oil, ne mas not
risen in the scale OF being, ne mas not
more manhood, or moral courage, anu
does not know any more ABOUT ood
and His Christ than before.
The true Christian Scientist reflects
the divine mind, stands on the basis OF
God, man and the universe as spirit
and spiritual as love and its manifesto
ton. as mind and its IDEAS perfect
and harmonious. Hence he understands
the unreality of matter and EVIL ana
knows that man is not sick but that the
patient is simply suffering from false
mesmerie belief. From that standpoint
he proceeds to correct the errors OF be-
lief with the truth of being and thus
establishes harmony on spiritual, sclen-
tifc basis.
1t is not to be wondered at, indeed 1T
is inevitable, that Christian Scientists
should love Mrs. Eddy for having
brought to the world this science OF
salvation. the true knowledge of God
and man. the spiritual understanding oil
the holy scriptures which enables them
to know themselves and to demonstrate
that Saving faith" which alone leads
to heaven.
Mrs. Eddy did not simply state her
discovery to the world; she first demon
strated it and then offered it as a
demonstrable science for all mankind to
profit by. This science overcomes evil
by giving a true knowledge Of God and
His Christ; it enables all humanity t.
| work out their own salvation and reach
that pure consciousness, which Jesus
called the Kingdom of heaven"

I'm BOSTON MARKETS.
Butter Supplies Large and Market Dun
Lower Prices Will Result.

Boston, May 20.-The local butter
market is dull, but shade tirmer than
1t has been. The weakness OF the west
ern markets encourages buyers to hold
off in the hope of lower prices, but the
New York market is firm, and that tact
tends to restrain dealers from running
after buyers, especially as any lower
prices for the present would mean loss
for sellers.
Supplies continue large and dealers
will either have to store the butter or
accept lower prices in order to prevent
an accumulation. The present cost is
above what most of the trade consider
a safe basis at which to put butter
away. Advices from the country still
tell of big make of butter.
The cheese market is easy as receipts
are steadily increasing and the primary
markets are lower. There is firm mar
ket for nearby eggs, receipts OF which
are lighter than they have been, while
the demand is good, owing to the fact
that the western consignments show the
effects of the heat in a good many IN
stances.

origin Of Beet Sugar.

When the fleets of Great Britain

Europe. during the Napoleonic wars.
Europe was cut on from its supply or
sugar. II became necessary 20 ind a
substitute. Before the discovery or
America sugar was unknown and
honey was the universal sweetening
But the supply o. honey was not equal
TO the demand now. In some coun-
tries. as In Bohemia. they made sugar
from the maple; in other countries
they crystalized dextrose from the
Juice OF the grape, but these sources
were inadequate The final outcome
