In the Biblical narrative. the prophet Elijah is suddenly introduced, in the manner of a Melchizedek without mention of mortal parentage or begin ming Of days. This commission of ma terial preliminaries illustrates the prophets purpose to look beyond the mortal and ephemeral, and to discern the spiritual and eternal in all things. It is this metaphysical significance that Mrs. Eddy gives to the word prophet in her definition on page 593 of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" where she writes: Prophet. spiritual seer: disap- pearance of material sense before the conscious facts of spiritual Truth
 After his first denunciation of evil. Elijah was obliged for ~the moment to flee from the resultant vengeance of evil; but spiritual perception, as quality of divine Mind. operates under the protection of Principle. Besides the necessity of exposing and denounc- ing evil he who is irnpelled by spirit ual perception will also certainly find those receptive conditions of thought which desire good. and which allow without resistance, the demonstration Of good. Thus. in exemDlification of the divine guidance which accom- panies spiritual perception. Elijah was led, in his human need. to the widow who. according to the promise given to him, was commanded to sustain him in Zarephath.
 Elijah had. nevertheless. to prove each step of the way. that spiritual promises were to be realized through the operation of spiritual not material means. The widow of Zarephath typi- fies that condition of human con sciousness which is bereft of it's ma terial dependence, and, having felt the disappointment of the mortal and

 THINGS OF LOCAL BOOM
New Haven Union Thinks That Lashar Makes Good Gubernatorial Timber.

The New Haven Union yesterday said:
 There is no question but there is organized, we'll directed and a splen- didly equipped movement in this state to bring about the nomination of Walter. B. Lashar of Bridgeport, one of the leading manufacturers of the state, head of the Americau Chain Go. and identified with other industries in Bridgeport and elsewhere. He is a very prominent citizen, is very popu lar and a man of keen business ability. What makes the movement in MT. Lashar's behalf particularly strong is the fact that there is a bitter contest among Republicans in Fairfield county, and because of the disgruntled conditions there, as well as elsewhere in thes tate among the Republicans.
 "Mr. Lashar's great political strength is recognized throughout the state. There is only one dicfhulty confront ing those who are in favor of his nomination for governor on the Dem ocratic ticket, and that is the talk that Homer S. Cummings of the same county may be the candidate for the United States senatorship. This brings to the front the issue of se- lecting the gubernatoria1 candidate from Fairfield county"
