 bitterly and unreasonably opposed to ! Christian Science and frequently de- nounced both Christian Science ant
 Mary Baker Eddy, publicly and pri-
 vately. During the three years prior to 1911 l suffered increasingly from l indigestion. liver trouble and as diagnosed by one physician, chronic appendicitis. A so-called nervous i breakdown ensued and an horrible, never absent fear came on which filled my thought with distressing pictures day and night At that time, being in Oxford, England,
 was led to receive treatment in
 Christian Science, which resulted in i instantaneous physical healing, and what proved q still greater relief, the destruction of the beliefs in old i theology. Through the Truth Of 1 Christian Science l was, in one mo

 in the darkness l seemed to see an | interrogation point a mile high and
 it said to me: What if it is all mistake, and you awake to find you are giving up your long ministry, your ample salary, your church and your loving people for something that proves itself to be a lie?' My heart was so full of love and gratl-

 From the cutting machines to the 7entilating fans keeping the air fresh and free from gas, every form of modern coal mining machinery will be seen operating under actual working conditions.
 The visitor will have an oppor- tunity of seeing real coal mine and of exploring it's recesses He may come to an open shaft, enter an elevator, and slowly go down seemingly hundreds of feet. At the bottom he may step out into black tunnel with miners lamps flickering here and there. Further on he can enter into a mine room to observe the cutting machines at work, watch the loaders pick up the mine coal, place it into dump cars and see an electric locomotive hook Up the cars and pull them up to the conyeyor which lifts the coal to the mouth of the mine. @
 According to Secretary John Burns, the American Mining Con gress at it's exposition with the help of the, United States Government and through the construction of this model mine, hopes to be able to bring about a better understanding on the part of the public of the various cost factors entering into the production of coal and at the same time to give to the mine op- erator a chance to study improved methods which will assist him in bringing about a lower price at the mines.

TOM TOMS ARE BEATEN; EFF|CY
 AT MANS DOOR
Voodoo Devotees Play on Notched Calabaches and
 Then They Beat 1t.

HAVANA. Cuba, July S.-Rein- ing in his shambllng horse, an aged negro cab driver early one night recently removed a bundle from the shadows of his coach and deposited it in the doorway of an aristocratic residence near the Malecon,A Ha- vana's bayshore drive.
 The fickering light of a nearby are lamp made it possible for pas sersby to distinguish the outlines of the bundle. Apparently it was a rude effigy, the head an unhusked cocoanut, with the fibre unrayelled enough to give the appearance of straggly hair, and the legless body stuffed, ragged coat, to which were fastened bones and what ap- parently were twigs and berries.
 The cab driver hardly had disap- peared before small group had congregated on the sidewalk before the portieo that sheltered the effigy. The group swiftly grew into small crowd, composed mostly of negroes and mulattos. Noisy before they caught glimpse of the motionless tiguree the spectators after giving one glance, lost their animation and became a part of the whispering, nervous assemblage The suppressed excitement became more pronounced when negro band, ragged Haitians from the country, started monot- air their tom tnmG and notched calabrashes.
 Nobody touched the effigy. not even the policemen attracted 10 the scene, who confined their energies to keeping the sidewalk clear. The windows of the house itself remain ed shuttered and closed although gleams of light indicated that the family was awake, even if not de- sirous of protesting against unin- vited visitors. As the hour grew later the crowd dwindled, those leaving hastening their steps as they passed through the deserted streets, with apprehension in their backward glances and frequent signs of the cross, incongrously sup plemented with fingers crossed against the evil eye. Fear of yoodoc devils whose fearfully muttered names were often linked with the words death before sunrise" sent them hurrying homeward
 But before dawn the effigy hat disappeared

 AMERICA IN MEXICO te IS GIVEN FATAL B

MEXICO CITY, July 8.-George T. Summerlin, American charge d affairs here, was recently given "333" at a reception rendered by President Obregon, much to the amusement of the. chief executive and the charge.
 MT. Summerlin received it when he checked his hat before entering the reception hall and as he ap- preached the President he displayed the ticket and inquired if there was anything personal meant.
 President ObregOn Immediately saw the humor off the situation and promptly introduced the United States diplomatic representative as the latest victim of the well-known Article Thirty-three.
 This article of the Mexican con- stitution provides for the immed- fate expulsion without trial of per nicious foreigners" and to receive '33" is a fate that all foreigners who wish to remain here avoid.
