That the cutlery of today from a
suffering world for salvation was
answered twenty centuries ago by
Christ Jesus when he said "Ye shall
know the truth and the truth shall
make you free" and that Christian
Science comes today in his name with
an assurance that the promises will
be fulfilled, was stated by Mr.. Irving
G. Tomlinson of Boston.
Mr.. Tomlinson explained that Chris
tian Science teaches that whatever the
need, there is always divine Love
enough present to save from any
affection, always Truth enough to
destroy any error, always divine in
telligence enough to point out the way.
He declared that the urgent problem
of today is the solution of the uncer-
tain and unsettled state of affairs in
the economic or business realm. He
pointed out that there is just as much
land and air as there ever was, Just
as much food, in fact an abundance
of food, just as many willing hands
to go to work-and still there is this
lack. Since there is this abundance
of material supply, he went on to ex-
plain, the trouble obviously is not in
the matter condition, in the material
situation, but it is in the mental realm;
the lack is mental condition. Man
kind is experiencing the results of
corruption, greed, materiality, he said,
prior to its publication.
Mr.. Tomlinson, who is a member of
the Board of Lectureship of The
Mother Church, The First Church of
Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massa-
chusetts, went on to say that in the
midst of it's greatest triumph, mate
rialism lies PROSTATE, in great de-
feat; that it is paradox that the
more victories we win on the false
basis of life in matter, the more de-
feats we undergo. The whole picture
paints, he said, the self contradictory
nature of matter-the stronger it
seems the weaker it is.
He assured his listeners that today
Christian Science, as discovered by
Mary Baker Eddy, offers solution
for the problems not only of the in
dividual, the home, and the church,
but of the counting the factory,
the farm, indeed of the governments
of the world. Christian Science is
teaching, he pointed out, that Paul's
words my God shall supply all your
need according to His riches in glory
by Christ Jesus" states a present-day
fact.

Banks Repaying Loans From
r. F. G.


Although hanks and trust companies
have been the largest borrowers from
the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton. they have exceeded all other
classes of borrowers In the rapidity of
their repayments. Since the inception
of the R. F. G. in February, 1882, loans
have been authorized by it to 1850
banking institutions in the amount Of
$1,995. 100000. OF this sum $442, 1000 900
was not taken by the borrowers, the
actual advances being 1883. 000.O
Repayments against these advances
through April 90. 1894. aggregated
1925, 10000. or about 60 per cent. The
ratio of repayments for all classes of
borrowers has been only about 81 per
cent. These rapid repayments by the
banks are taken by competent observ-
ers as strong indication of returning
normal financial and banking eondi-
lions.

CHOLERA SEASON NEARs

Answers to a QUESTIONABLE from
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture to field inspectors in about
25 of the principal hog-raising States
indicate that only about SO per cent
as many hogs were immunized
against cholera in the first half of
1884 as in the corresponding period
of 1888. The principal reasons
were the low value of hogs and the
inability of the farmers to pay for
the treatment,
with the market price of hogs on
the upward trend farmers should
safeguard them against diseases,
particularly cholera" declares DR.. T.
P. White, of the Bureau of Animal
Industry. 1.-The cost of serum and
virus has been reduced in recent
years, and immunization is still
sound investment. While hog
cholera losses have been compare
lively light for the past year or two,
infection still exists, and, as rule,
becomes active during the fall
months. One outbreak of cholera
may spread the disease to an entire

tured.
Few people realize what a
variety of products are now sold
to the public in a safe, clean,
wholesome condition in various
forms of tin containers. These
include among dozens of other
products, cigars, cigarettes, metal
and shoe polish, motor oils, paint,
parcel post containers, pills, pro-
prietary medicines, razor blades,
salves, snuff, talcum powder, tape,
tobacco, tooth powder, typewriter
ribbons, varnish and waters. TSen
there are objects made of metal
and tin such as ash and garbage
cans, advertising novelties, boxes
of all sorts, display racks for
stores, lard pals, lip stick hold
ers, match boxes, trays, vanity
cases and host of other things.
Hundreds of Foods
The foods which are sold in
great quantities in cans include
fifty-seven varieties of vegetables,
forty-four varieties of fruits,
thirty varieties of fish and she'll
fish, fifty-six specialties, thirty
three varieties of meats, thirty
three soups and seven ready-made
entrees, but there are hundreds
of other food products which are
also canned in lesser quantities.
1t is doubtful whether all of the
general public realizes that they
can get such products as baked

A vast showing of all these cans
and other metal products against
an edifice crowned with colossal
golden NEUROLOGICAL figures and
with paintings in it's base repre-
senting the harvesting of fruits
and sea foods and the cultivation
of vegetables for canning consti-
tutes this unique exhibit which
should be of intense interest to
the housewife. The pictures and
lithography on these containers
reveal the great progress that
has been made in decorating them
to make them attractive to the
public.
People who saw the exhibit pic
tured above at the Annual Con-
vention of the National Gamers
Association in Chicago early this
year were amazed not only at the
vast variety of products which
are put in cans, but at the in
genuity and art with which they
have been made appropriate, eff
cient and convenient for the pur-
poses of the various products
which they contain.
A Fount of Information
A small fountain is FLASHING in
front of the display of cans, but
the whole exhibit is a huge fount
of information for the housewife.
Booklets descriptive of all that
goes on in it and in the canning
industry are being given away,
a nd additional information
mailed to all those asking ques-
lions about specific features of
canning. Last but not least,
new type of can opener for
liquids, known as the quick and
easy can opener, is being demon
strated all day and given away
to all those attracted by their
easy efficiency.*

Since God is Mind, and God is In
finite and one, it follows logically that
God is all the Mind there is, and there
can be but one Mind, Mr.. Tomlinson
reasoned, and explained that this
Mind is all-seeing divine Love, which
knows only good, only the things of
Spirit. It includes no consciousness
of loss, Of sin, or of disease, he fur
Their explained, for these are but prod
ucts of belief in another mind, in a
power apart from God. "The activity
of Mind is always in the realm of per-
fection," he said, and added, "trans-
formation, not humiliation, is the re-
suit of this activity"
According to Mr.. Tomlinson, more
than ever men are asking Pilates
question "What is Truth %, and he de-
clared that the answer of Christian
Science is that Truth is God. In this
connection he referred to Mrs. Eddy's
unparalleled definition of God in the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health with Key to the Scriptures:
"God is incorporeal, divine, supreme,
infinite Mind, Spirit, Soul, Principle,
Life, Truth, Love-" Truth then, is the
incorporeal God,-that is, without
flesh or any thought of flesh, he ex-
planned, and he made clear that the
truth which is God is mental, is spirit
ual it is divine consciousness. "Truth
is the l AMP, he declared, "and be-
cause I AM is, we are"
Mr.. Tomlinson quoted from Mrs.
Eddy's book "The First Church of
Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany, this
arresting statement: eff we say that
the sun stands for God, then all His
rays collectively stand for Christ, and
each separate ray for men n
women. He explained that the whole
light is Christ, and the rays are tie
children of God; that each individual
has his exact place in light; that the
entire reflection, the whole truth about
all, is Christ. Christ comes to each
man, he went on to explain, and each
by demonstration takes his exact and
perfect place and part in the whole
ness of this reflection; Christ comes
to the human and saves from incar-
nate error.
The lecturer made clear that the
real man is the image of Gods being
the full representation of every
thing that God is, and that man has
everything that God has, since he is
Gods reflection. "God is Spirit and
man is spiritual; God is Truth and
man is truthful; God is Love and man
is loving, Mr.. Tomlinson declared.
Touching upon the subject of prayer,
the lecturer said that many forms of
prayer are for the most part petitions
to our heavenly Father, beseeching
Him to do a favor, or to grant the
petitioners request, and he maintained
that it is not the disposition or in
tention of the heavenly Father, which
needs changing, since He is Love, and
ever waits to bestow all good upon
His child, but it is the debased will
of hayward mortals that stands in
need of change.

DELAwARE's DUAL HIGHWAY
LONGEST IN WORLD

Nearly 900 acres of land have been
devoted to the construction Of the
dual highway, between Wilmington
and Dover-enough land to make
II fifty-acre farms or nearly 8 one
hundred acre farms.
The use of the land, much of it
rich farm land taken out of produc-
ton, freed from county taxation-is
, dedicated to the saving of lives and
the reduction of loss of limb, by the
increased safety which is secured
from the dual highway.
In spite Of the tendency on the
part of some motorists to increase
speed, the dual highway has result
ed in marked decrease in accidents
on a main highway, compared with
accidents on other similarly used
single highways.
In the near future the last link Of
the dual highway between Whining
ton and Dover, section running six
miles north of Dover toward Smyrna
will be opened to traffic, then the
dual highway, said to be the longest
in the world, 46 miles long, will be
open, running double band thru
town and country, with duplicate
bridges, duplicate rights of way thru
towns and double line of concrete
across country.
The right of way for seven miles
of the dual highway from just below
Wilmington to State Road, is 200
feet wide and 80 miles, from State
Road to Dover, is $50 feet wide, ex-
cept in some places where it passes
through towns, where it may be,
wider, as there are actually two sep
arated roads in some of the towns.
There are only two places in its
course where the dual highway
comes together at present, one just
below State Road, where the Penn
sylvania Railroad overhead bridge
forces the roads together, and the
other at st. George. idge over the
canal, where the road is dawn again
together to a single roadway over
the bridge.
In Smyrna over half a mile of
22-foot wide concrete roadway, the
old single way State highway or du-
Pont Boulevard, was torn up in or
der that the continuity of the dual
highway, with plot between, might
not be interrupted in that town.
Hundreds of thousands Of dollars
have been devoted to building new
bridges for the dual highway in or
der to prevent the necessity Of the
one way north and the one way
south highways joining where they
cross streams. Exclusive of bridges
the new northbound lane of the dual
highway cost about $2,5O0,000.
A ruogh estimate discloses that
the right of way of the dual highway
passes over approximately 87S.S
acres of land. About half of this
was used by the old single highway.
A considerable portion, in low lying
areas and through marsh grounds,
and across streams, was never suit
able for farming.-peye: Index.

That is one OF the secrets of the pro-

HAVE FAITH IN GOn

Baltimore, Md.


Faith converses with angels,
And Hymns of glory sing,
In the hush and quiet of evening;
The moving of angels wings.
Faith will give the victory.
Over every temptation and foe
Gods presence always with us.
Leading wherever we go,
Faith marches on forever,
Her banners waving high,
Lighting every step of the way,
On our journey to the sky.
Faith as the shadows lengthen;
We are nearing Canan's shore,
And can almost hear them singing;
The meeting over yonder, where
partings are no more.
Faith will tighten the burdens,
When we cannot understand,
And we'll know that God is holding
In the hollow Of His hand.
