LECTURES ABOUT
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Continued from page l J

or scientific understanding, it is
sublimely natural and beautiful.
It is not hypothetical or specu-
Iative; it is the religion that reveals
the scientific and natural relation
between God and man, between
Principle and its expression, be-
tween cause and effect.
1t is scientific religion; the scien.
tific understanding of man and his
Principle, God; which Principle it
self is not assumed or hypothecat-
ed; nor vet conceded to or adopted
on the basis of universal belief or
acceptance; but is found to be self
existent, selt.evident, and demon
strable Principle, whose evidence
and proof of existence is within it.
self; and is found of necessity to be;
which conclusion is reached by a
purely scientific and logical reason
ing; and is as abstract from the evi.
dence of the senses, both in princi-
pie and expression as the ultimate
science of plumbers.
yet it is as practicable, demon
strable, and useful in everyday life
and living as the simplest or pro-
foundest branches of mathematics.
By it its adherents are enabled to
live good and useful lives; to do
much good in the world, and to
harm no one at all.
Through it they are enabled to
demonstrate, not only over sickness
and disease in themselves and 9TH
ers, but over poverty, privation, &C.
cident, and many of those things
over which it is usually conceded
that we have no control. Nor is
this all; but over hatred, malice,
fear, revenge, unfaithfulness, fraud,
in fact, all the ills and errors of the
mortal.
christian Science, unlike every
other religion, admits of no error,
either in promise or conclusion, in
cause or effect, in Principle or ex
preston. God and His creation
always were perfect, are now and
forever will be.
Neither are the evils and errors
of sense undeveloped good; neither
are they spiritual good wrongly
understood; but they are the mega
tive of being, as darkness is the
negative of light; and as the. false is
the negative of the true.
"Christian Science comes to this
material age and throws the X-ray of
Spirit and scientific understanding
upon all material things; and re-
veals them to be merely mortal
thoughts that have no more exist
ence or reality than the horizon that
is seen over the mountain yonder.
With the elimination of all these
things, necessarily vanish all their
concommitants, sickness, disease,
and sin, mortality and death; and
everything that in any way limits or
seems to limit everlasting life, or is
opposed to God and His spiritual
creation.
This material universe is to be
scientifically and Understandings
rolled up like a scroll and be as
though it had not been.

Beating Off a Doc.

If a dog springs for man the latter
should guard his face with his arm
and try to meet the animal with his
forearm. With his right hand he
should attempt to catch one Of the
animals front paws. The paw Of a
bulldog is ultra sensitive. If it can be
caught a vigorous squeeze will make
the animal howl for mercy and retire

Honest John has introduced in the
senate resolution abolishing the
electoral college, and providing 70,
the election of president by direct
vote of the people. That would be
fine and dandy. Under the present
election laws and the way they are
administered in the sunny south, the
lone star state could, and if necessary
would, roll up Democratic majority
equal to the total ndmber of citizens
living north of the Mason and
Dixon Line. If the president ever
be elected by direct vote, and there
seems to be no good reason why he
should not be, presidential elections
should be supervisor thruout the ma
ton by federal authority.

Why do the front wheels on an
automobile turn as they do for steer
ing? On a buggy or wagon the axle
pivots at the centre. Why is this
not done on an automobile? F. s. p.
The leverage would be so great
that the driver could not pull the axle
around. Striking an obstacle with
one wheel would break the steering
gear unless it were unusually heavy.
Another reason is that when turning
corners it would bring the point
support, the wheel, too near the CEN
tire of gravity, with greater DANCE,
of overturning.

What is the reason for the reduc-
tion in gearing at the rear axle !?
Does not the change speed gear give
all the reduction nevessary? NJ. L. G.
If there were no reduction at the
rear axle the engine would have to
drive the rear wheel at it's own speed
while in high gear, which is more
than the engine could do. When
throttled down it would stall very
easily. Then, again, the other gears
would have to be much larger so as to
run the car slowly, on low speed
or reverse. The proper reduction has
been figured out by the designer
using greater reduction for hilly
country.

Some years ago we hear a good
deal about two-cyc,e engines being
used on autos. Why have they drop
pen out? They are found practicable
for marine use and they give twice
as many explosions as four-cycle
engine. What elements do they lack
to make them useful for auto use?
j. j. II.
They are successful in marine work
where top speed is used all the time,
but they do not run well when throt-
tied down too much nor when speed
ed up too much. At these points
they begin to miss explosions and so
become troublesome.

Shellac makes good painting sur
face on metal body, but the grease
and all old paint must be removed
first and the surface cleaned with
emery cloth. After shellac has dried
go over it lightly with double ought

Apply as many coats of paint as

HUGE EAGLE IS CAUGHT ALIVE
 ON THE DESERT BY A MINER


 A huge American eagle measuring more than five feet from tip to tip of extended wings, was captured on the desert on the edge of Los Basin last week by an employe of a mining company operating in the basin. The bird had sustained injury to it's wings by alighting on a Spanish Dag ger plant. One of the, sharp points had penetrated it's right wing and its captor had to free the half dead bird from the plant. The lack of water had so weakened the big bird that it was unable to extricate itself from it's perilous position but it did not stop the frightened eagle from putting up a fight against capture that resulted in it's captor's hands being severely lacerated.
 The injured bird was thrown into the machine and at intervals was giv- en water. Upon arrival at the mine it was fed and otherwise cared for for several days.
 One night, after it had regained strength, it flew away.
