Times Have CHANGED

The Indians cut out his thirst

boiled shirts and he smokes cher

three boots. The bison's gone
from the western plain, with the

And the tireless bronx with its
Texas brand, has gone to the
mustangs happy land. Where
the lean wolf howled in the lonely
night. the farmers windows are
glowing bright. The autos scorch
on the dusty pike, where scout
and trapper were wont to hike.
These things discourage an old
time scout, and Buffalo Bill has
just passed out New heroes come
in these modern days; the motor
tiends and the flying jays, the
champions of the mat and ring.
the foot ball chief and the hand
cuff king. New heroes come, and
the old ones go. and Buffalo Bill
IS living low. A brave old soul,
and he seemed sublime to a mil

Inspired by him, how we used to
swear we'd ride on chargers and
wear long hair. and blow a blast
on hunting horn. and kill an In

moves on and the old dreams 20,

TALKS Of HAPPINESS
HERE AND HEREAFTER
William R. Rathvon of Scientist
Church, Boston, Lectures at
Polls Theater.
Says Life Is Made Up of Problems
Which Very Few Find Easy
to Solve.

1.-The Way to Happiness Here and
Hereafter was the subject of lecture
delivered before a large audience at
Polls yesterday afternoon by William R.
Rathvon, c. S. B.. member of the board
of lectureship of the mother church, the
First Church of Christ, Scientist. Boston,
Mass. 1t was the third Of a series Of
lectures being given under the auspices
of the First and Second Churches Of
Christ, Scientist, in this city.
Mr.. Rathvon said. in part:
at has been aptly said that life is like
an arithmetic. made up of problems
which a very few find easy to solve, and
and which the others never learn to work
out. Now we all know that the students
failures to solve the problems of arith-
metic are due 10 his incomplete or de-
fective knowledge and application OF the
principles of mathematics. But did you
ever consider that so many CT US fail to
solve the problems of everyday life
because of our incomplete or defective
knowledge of the infinite principle of
existence, God?

Brings Sense of Humility.

'sThen. too, there comes to you a sense
of humility. that true humility which
is not weakness but strength: the hu-
mility which brings with it that true
independence which comes from de-
pending upon God and not upon man:
AS your thought about God
changes, so do you find your
thought about men and things
changing for the better. You become
less harshly critical. more tolerant, pa
tient and considerable. You forget how
to hate and you learn how to love.
When you realize. as you do through
Christian Science, that every quality
Of good is yours to reflect daNy, hour
ly. constantly. by virtue Of your divine
heritage, then you begin to compre-
bend what Jesus means when He tells
us that to know God is life eternal
Christian Science imparts the under
standing Of being which shows that op-
portunity is ever present and ever
available to the man who relies upon
God more than upon himself or any
other man or thing or circumstance or
belief Mrs. Eddy says: Tireless Be
ing. patient of mans procrastination.

Teachings of Christian Science.

Christian Science is giving to man an
understanding Of God as the infinite prin-
ciple of all that really exists, the princi-
pie which. in the words of our text book
is underlying, everything and encom-
passing all true being; the principle
which operates through unchanging laws
laws which are always beneficent. and
always comprehensive and demonstrable
Many of US have been taught in our
earlier days that it is not essential to
in Him. Now think of trying to solve
merely believing in it's principles with
out understanding them. And are not
the problems of life vastly more i'm
portant and momentous than anything
that mathematics can present? Prob
lens which, when wrongly worked,
leave us heavy-laden with sickness,
fear, want. misery and sin? Christian
Science, following the teachings of
Jesus the Christ. shows US that a right
understanding of God is as essential to
every student in the school of life as
an understanding of numbers is to the
student of mathematics.
Every right concept of God as in
finite good must include His omnipo-
tence His omnipresence. His omnis-
cience. Finite man cannot comprehend
these divine qualities in their fullness.
but 1t is a noteworthy fact that in the
proportion that you do realize them. in
that proportion do you find good COM
ing into your life and evil leaving it.
You DO not need to know all of God
that is to be known. before you get any
of the good that comes from using even
a little of such knowledge.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-02-05
Effect Of Knowledge.

"As you thus learn to know God
Alright you will discover that any evil
thing which may come upon you has
not the power to harm you that you
once believed it had. You will no
longer dread what men may say or do
to you. You will no longer fear things
present or things to come. You will
learn to succeed in spite of failure. to
he strong in spite of weakness, to be
steadfast in spite Of the storm. Sick
ness sin. want failure and the like lose
their hold upon you. and even II they
should come upon you, they cannot dis
able. disturb or depres you. or master
You, or deprive you of your God-given
rights. nor can they separate you from
the love of God. omnipotent good
.In the proportion you realize that
God is omniscience. that he knows the
eternal truth about all that really ex-
lists. even to knowing you far better
than you know yourself. knowing you
and seeing you as He made you, i'll His
own image and likeness. rejecting
every quality of good--When you dis
cover this about yourself and see that
evil is not q part of you, does not be
long to you, and cannot control you
unless you submit to it, then you be-
stir yourself to get rid of it by reduc-
ing it TO it's native nothingness. AS
YOU learn to know more about God.
your thought dwells less upon your
self and your own affairs. and you lose
much of that injurious habit of self
thinking that shows itself in such
things as sensitiveness. self-pity. self
self-condemnation. which is quite as
bad. For. my friends, man does not
need to be condemned, not even by
himself: he needs to be saved.

war time economics will become fash
iOnable. Because simplicity makes for,
rather than against, artistic success
In design, the new frocks of silk and
satin are marvels of good taste.
Only satin and needlework furnished
the mean for producing the lovely
afternoon gown shown in the illustra-
ton. But this restriction merely serves
to show the r~esourcefulness of its Gre
ator; he has made them entirely sufli
cient. The gown has a short, plain
bodice, shocked into epaulette shout
ders. The plain skirt is shocked to
adjust 1t to the figures ut the waist
line and the last row of shocking
forms Il narrow rufle, lined with white
satin. This provides the most grace
full way for uniting bodice and skirt
in me-.
But the cleverest bit of strategy m
ployed by the artist whose means were
so restricted, appears in the pockets mt
each side. They are managed by slit
ting the satin and gathering the full
ness of the skirt into shocking. The
