the custom of carpenters to prepare
plans for buildings and to execute
them. Mr.. O'Rourke was employed by
Jonathan B. Nichols, carpenter, and

he went into business for himself.

quired the disease and died; but even
though priest were certain that such
result would follow his visit to the
sick, he would consider his life well
spent in giving spiritual aid to the
dying person. A few years are as
nothing in comparison with eternity
and the life of the body as nothing
in comparison with the life of the soul.
The Christian Scientists believe
when they are sick God sent them the
sickness and it was not punishment;
therefore why should they get doctor
to try to get better knowing that God
is good?
The theories of the Christian Scien-
lists are sadly confused and contra
dictory. God sends us hunger and
thirst as we'll as sickness. Then, why
do Christian Scientists send to the
merchants to procure food and drink
God sends different seasons of the
year; yet Christian Scientists do not
wear in the heat of summer the heavy
garments they use in winter to keep
them warm. The question presumes
that good God cannot punish. Par
ents sometimes are cruel to their chill
dren when they spare the rod. In a
similar way God frequently Furnishes
us for our own good, never because
He is indicative but because He loves
US.
