Because whyl Well, in the first
place Mr.. Bryan is a good loser. In the
second place he is man with whom you

third place he is sincere, amiahie and
honest. In the fourth place ,slthough
he undoubtedly has 10 pay life sized

GOOD CUSTOMERS.

The War Savings Committee of one of the Middle
Western states has few things to say about good Gus
toners
"When the town is flush with money, almost any Gus
toner is a good customer But when the wheels stop,
business can be done only with the who has cash or
credit
"The man who has something saved is the only good
customer when times are dull Ii man did not save when
times were easy, he cannot be a good credit risk.
"a woman who is good customer can be recognized
the minute she comes into a store
IF she knows how to buy she knows how to If
she knows the value Of goods she knows the value Of
credit If she respects what she owns she respects what
she owes.
Business is done for cash or credit; the other thing
is charity.
"Credit comes to an end when a man can't pay his
bills Cash business stops when man can't pay money"
No one with decent pride selfrespect wants to be
the object of charity yet judged by these standards the
number of charitable in the buying world today is
enormous.
Thrift alone will raise the individual from the char
iy class to the good customer class and keep him there

COMING INTO ITS OWN.

1t is gratifying to see how some
of the minor Jewish holidays are
coming to be celebrated more and
more. Thus we find that Purim
means more to the average Jewish
family. Naturally the religious
schools have been making it the oc-
casion for an annual entertainment.
But it is after all in the home that
a holiday should be most notable.
And in this regard Purim has been
coming into it's own. Thus it is
gratifying to see to what extent,
especially this year, the festival was
made the occasion of home celebra-
ton. Even if this consisted in moth
ing more than having family re-
unions" and entertaining, the fact
that Purim was selected instead of
some other date indicates a renas-
cent interest in things Jewish.
Who knows but that in time we
may have Jewish organizations and
individuals actually arranging their
social activities so as to emphasize
the happier side of Jewish cere-
monial life? One must not under
estimate the value of such growing
celebration of Jewish dates. After
all, especially for the growing gen.
Grafton, the stronger and more fire.
auent any sentiment is, the deeper
the impression it makes. And once
we have every occasion in Jewish
life emphasized we will have a
properly conscious, wide-awake,
self-respecting Jewish 1aity to deal
with May that day be fastened!

them unto the greatest of them
X" Jeremiah 81 :34.) Religion
is not mere matter of creed, church
or profession. 1t is matter of DEM
onstration to be exempli6ed in liv-
ing rather than in mere talking or
profession. The test of mans re-
ligion is his life.
None seem to deny the good eff
fects of Christian Science on human
life and character as manifested in
kindness, courtesy, love, cheerful
ness, joyousness, and other attri-
butes that point to the attainment of
the higher ideals of life. Even Mark
Twain who reached the zenith of his
humor when he was seriously quoted
as a religious authority, in spite of
his attempted ridicule said, "She
(referring to Mrs. Eddy has de-
livered to them religion which was
revolutionized their lives, banished
the glooms that Swallowed them, and
filled them and flooded them with
sunshine and gladness and peace"
The principle of religion is God.
It's method is the application of that
principle to mans experience, and if
Understandings applied its result is
the establishment of peace, harmony
and happiness. The right practice
of religion involves the correct un-
derstanding of God and man.
The Christian Science definitions
of God as "incorporeal, divine, su-
preme, infinite Mind, Spirit, Soul,
Principle, Life, Truth, Love-
(Science and Health, page 1861 are
synonymous with, and as clear as
the Bible definition by God himself,
81 am that I am" The definition is
not merely string of words, but in
diligently studied, and conscien-
tiously applied, gives one that chart
of life which leads to experiences
and convictions that define God by
an inner sense rather than by out
ward words. Christian Science
teachings are the unerring, logical
deductions and conclusions that fol-
low it's postulate of God as omnipo-
tent, omnipresent, and omniscient,
precluding the actually of any other
power, presence or intelligence. God
as spiritual and All, precludes mat
ter as reality. 1t is unbelievable
that God would create anything TN
like himself, Spirit.

and other human concepts OF exist
ence, while seemingly real, will dis
appear as humanity grasps and lives
the right idea. Christian Science
earnestly studied and Conscientious
ly applied, will prove itself and neg
alive all arguments advanced against
it, however logical they may seem
from the standpoint of material in
telligence.
The accepted religious account of
the creation is that man was created
in the Image and likeness of God"
(Gen. III Therefore, the real man
must have been created and remains
spiritual, not material AS we drop
our carnal beliefs and become spiri-
tually minded, this fact will appear,
as Mrs. Eddy says, AT present we
know not what man is, but we GER
tainly shall know this when man re-
fleets God" (Science and health,
page 90)
The arguments advanced in prev
ious papers exhale the atmosphere
of materialism, pantheism, and ag-
Mysticism. Christian Scientists do
not claim to have reached perfection
of demonstration, but all evidence
indicates that they are on the way.
They have not yet ceased to eat,
drink and breathe, but to very
large extent have become masters of
their appetites and thus have ceased
merely to Give to eat" and as they
rise above the animality in their ma
lures and strive for the spiritual,
they find necessity for less of food
and other material accompaniment
of physical life.
While Christian Scientists are not
giving acrobatic exhibitions, never
theless on occasions when they have
fallen from great heights, or have
been placed in other conditions of
danger, their religion has protected
them from injury. They have prov
EN-, "The eternal God is thy refuge,
and underneath are the everlasting
arms" (Deut 80 :27.) Christian
Science is provable either by deduc-
ton or induction Starting with the
allness of God, and carrying that
premise to it's logical conclusion, one
can prove all that Christian Science
claims; or, if through spiritual liv-
ing there is eliminated from con-
seriousness all sense of the reality
