$1 for every minute he loitered. The Richmond salary would not last long at that rate. If the next Thaw jury is to be com-po.-.ed of people who have not read about the case, it is terrifying to think what the makeup may be. Rising temperature has been predicted so much that no ordinary thermometer could hold the mercury had all the "rising" taken place. That was a royal flush, says somej bright paragrapher, when King Ed-! ward blushed deeply under the compliments of Mrs. Potter Palmer. Muncie Is pointing the way for the Richmond Art association. More than 1300 members have been secured there and the campaign is on for 2,000. There is a hoodoo somewhere in Central America, as evidenced by the fact that General Christmas recently died and Minister Merry is to be recalled. Victory by the Indianapolis American association ball club has kicked up fully as much, if not more, interest than did the recent great Y. M. C. A. campaign. Japan has placed orders in the United States for railroad equipment aggregating $!.O0O.Oi. Not half bad, considering all the war talk of the past few months. Some investigating cuss lias accused Shakespeare of haviug an accurafe knowledge of base ball because this line Is found In one of his plays: "The bloody knife shall play the umpire." Earnum and Baily might have treated U3 a little better by coming on some other day than Saturday. That is a bad day for many to attend, but then somebody must have the big show on that day.

A Tennessee couple, whose wedding was thwarted seventy-five years ago, are about to consumate their happiness, although both are near the century mark. Roosevelt is said to have a new scheme to prevent corporation control ci parties by having the government pay the campaign expenses. Indirectly, the government has already been paying much of it "through assortments levied oa the office holders. It is not to be wondered at that the presiueut and his family have entered a protest ovtr the persistent publication of gossip in reference to them. Whoa it comes to delving into the private affairs even of the chief executive, the matter is being somewhat overdone. Let the president eat his meals In peace at least. Judge Anderson. of the federal court, has found for ihe people in the

Initial effort of the railroads to undo the work of the recent legislature and get the two-cent fare law declared unconstitutional. The court refused to grant a temporary restraining order asked for by the railroads. Argument as to a permanent order will be heard later.

If anything more were needed to convince the public that a more thorough inspection of meat killed In Richmond, is heeded, the sickening dii covery of Friday, as told In the news columns of this paper, has certainly proven ample. Agitation for both meat and milk inspections should be continued until both are secured ad are made thorough. Roosevelt's luck is never exhausted. Now it is Frederick Weyerhauser, of Wisconsin, who says that President Roosevelt has been "a trifle meddlesome." Mr. Weyerhauser speaks with feeling, lie is the recognized head of the lumber trust, whose operations in the West have recently landed a large number of distlnguished persons of Idaho in the criminal courts. New York World. RESENTS HEARST'S UTTERANCES The New York World, in its edito rial columns, thus resents a recent ut terance by William Randolph Hearst: Mr. Hearst will not find many real democrats, we think, who will agree with him that their party i3 only "an lmntv namp " that It Tins finished Its . thQf if ic, 4ti, - prejudice, conscience or conviction." Many of the New York democrats felt that way last fall when a debauched convention led by Murphy and Conners, bestowed a stolen nomination for governor upon Mr. Hearst, but their faith was restored by the subsequent verdict of the people at the polls. Fundamentally a political party consists not of its bosses, but its members. The real democratic party in New York is not Murphy, Couners, Grady or McCarren and their corrupt kind, but the "00,000 citizens who vote the democratic ticket. They are just as honest, sincere and patriotic as they ever were. They still have pride, ; conscience and conviction. It is not I they, but their party organization, which must be reformed. Men like Murphy, Conners and Mc'to do for itself and always will nave to do.

Plyskki's View ot Clrelsii Science Dr. Joseph M. Thurston Makes Observations on Mrs. Eddy's Theories From a Scientific Standpoint.

Faith in the truism that "the common people heard Him gladly," and in the hope that the following thoughts suggested on reading the recent lecture on so-called Christian science recently delivered in Richmond, may contain a germ of '"the truth of Christ," the following Is respectfully submitted to the many readers of the Palladium. The writer is fond of playing with an only grand daughter four years old, who has been taught to never tell an untruth and Is very conscientious in tle matter, so when she formally introduces "Mr. and Mrs. so-and-so from my very dear friends whom I am delighted to see!" she then slyly steps up and whispers softly In my ear "Fa, we. will just play like it is them, but it 'isenf though." As it reads to the writer, the lecturer would have us just play like his propositions are so. "The word mind is a synonym for God" he says; that "Christian science" declares that "God is mind and mind is God." Now a very casual study of anatomy and physiology will convince any reasonable person that it is simply a physical impossibility to have mind without a normal brain; from this viewpoint therefore, God would be no better than man with a normal brain. According to this doctrin, Mind, Principle, Good, God, mean one and Ihe same thing. Why not as well add wheel-barrow and tree also? It certainly required mind and thought to construct a wheel-barrow and there is nothing better when it is the thing required, and what is more useful and grand than the beautiful tree? If God has mind, it must be the result of a material organized brain, and he would know just when and how to use a wheel-barrow, and how to appreciate the tree. When word-values must be perverted to express any sort of philosophy or doctrine, that doctrine will impress the self-thinking mind as a play upon words simply. The lecturer would have us "play like" Mrs. Eddy is the sole embodiment of all the truth that science and religion contains or ever did afford, that before Mrs. Eddy gave us her "Science and Health," the world was groping In densest ignorance, we says, "Christian science, therefore, in this process of correcting human be liefs and opinions, and giving a scien tific basis for religion, takes away the j old personal thought concerning God and establishes a better one." More than three hundred and fifty-seven years ago, Michael Servetus, a very learned physician of Geneva, opposed the "dogma of two natures" of God, he says "To speak of the Nature of God is absurd; for the word nature can only apply to something created, something born (from the latin natus.) But God is from eternity." Servetus conception of God is perhaps the grandest ever given by any writer, he says, "God is eternal one and Indivisible, and himself inscrutable, but making His being known in and through creation; so that not only is every living, but every lifeless thing, an aspect of Deity. Before creation was, God was; but neither was he light, nor word, nor spirit, but some ineffable thing el6e, sed quid aliud ineffabile." Again he writes, "The Holy Spirit I always say is the motion of God in the soul of man, and out of man there cannot properly be said to be any Holy Spirit." When we consider that in Servetus time, before science was yet developed, when experimental research was considered a high crime In tho eyes of the clergy; who not only ruled with an iron hand religious thought and belief, but the state also, and any one who dared to think for himself and question orthodoxy in any direction, took his life in his own hands and usually gave it up in smoke at the stake, as did Michael Servetus on the 27th day of October, 1553, near Geneva; at a time when speculative theories and religious hierarchism dominated absolutely, it is simply marvelous to us In this en lightened day, in what, and through what difficulties the human mind has struggled onward and upward In quest of "the pearl of great p. le'" truth. Most physicians have in their libraries such works as "Illustrations of the Influence of the Mind upon the Body," and a "Manual of Psyschological Medicine," written in 1872-1879, by Daniel Hack Tuke. M. D., F. R. C. P. LL. D. "Body and Mind." and "The Pathology of the Mind" written ia 1SG0-1S78 by Henry Maudsley. M. D. It will be remembered that Mrs. Eddy, then Mrs. Patterson, the wife of Dr. Patterson, became the patient, and then a student of P. P. Quimby, then a famous mesmerist who treated the sick without medicines in 1S02-4; Dr. Patterson, her husband, no doubt had these works in his library to which his wife certainly had access. Quimby was a close student, very extensive reader, and a voluminous writer. He had written more than a dozen books oa his favorite study of psychic or mind phenomena, and the suggestive treatment of the sick, but carefuly kept them all from the press until such time as his busy would permit him to revise and rrect them bsfore ho should hac them published. But in the meantime Mrs. Patterson was given free access to read them. Quimby died, however, and none of his writings ever appeared in print in his name. (McClure's Magazine, March. 1007.) Psycho-Therapeutics-Mind Cure. ""What used to be called mesmerism, after Frederick " Antone Mesmer. who on the occasion of his graduation from the university at Vienna in 1706. presented a thesis on "animal magnetism" which caused much excitement in the scientific world for many years, is known to modern medicine as suggestive therapeutics, the uninformed, and those who prey upon the ever plentiful credulous and superstitious, still practie it under various 1 guises, such as mesmerists, mental ; healing, magnetic healers, tayinic on of j

hands, prayer cure, divine healing, etc., etc. All in Your Mind. . Say Jo the individual suffering with a mashed finger or an aching tooth.

"pain and suffering is ail in your mind," and they will indignantly inform you that you are not only ignorant, but heartless, when In fact you are stating a physiological truth, demonstrated in every surgical operaton 'of any kind requiring chloroform, ether, or any sort of ansthesia. The neuirons or never cells in the brain are the essential functionating element of the , , ii ueriuua d icui, umj uie uci o ten Is capable of sensation or feeling ani suffering. Millions and millions of

minute microscopic nerve iinres are how? In the Grecian Mythology -distributed to every part of the body, Greek myth-lore, which had an indiv and end in very delicate nerve-buds dual god or goddess for everything which receive impressions and carry and believed that the soul was simr them up to the neuron or nerve cell in j iy mind, had the goddess Psyclie, wh the brain. There are estimated to be j presided over the mind, and so wninety billions of nerve cells In the; now use the word Psychic, as relatmr brain, and each individual cell has a j to the mind; and thus we have hc part to perform in the general func-j science of psychology, the study of ti e tlon of the great nervous system, j normal mind, and psychiatry, the sin They are in associated and correlated jy of the deranged mind. etc. etc.

groups. Jt or instance tnere are voluntary motion groups and involuntary motion groups, which control every voluntary and involuntary movement of the body. Then there are groups that preside over sight, hearing, smelling, tasting and touch; those that recognize pain, heat and . cold, and many other sensations of discomfort or pleasure as the nature of the substance may be that impresses these nervebuds. In this way the mind is made up from impressions made by various and varied objects and forms of matter, conveyed to the brain from bodily contact with external objects with which we are continually brought in contact. Now when chloroform is administered, it paralyzes or blunts these neurones or brain cells for the time being, rendering the mind unconscious of pain or suffering, and any part of tha body can now be cut and torn asunder, and the patient remain perfectly unconscious of any pain or suffering. More Than Two-thirds of Sickness all in the Mind. So also, if a sick person is told that most of their sickness ia in their mind, they will reply, "Oh, you brute, you don't know how I am suffering." We fail to distinguish between, physical pain and mental distress. Physical pain is felt anywhere in the body while mental distress is recognized entirely within the brain as a purely mind process, what scientists call psychic phenomena; for instance, If we have a broken leg we have physical pain, recognized in the brain as part of the mind, to be sure, but In a purely physical manner, but if death claims parents, sisters, brother, wife, children, relatives or dear friends, then we suffer mentally wholly. This Is mental distress, and much harder to bear than purely physical pain. By the exercise of fortitude and resignation to unpleasant conditions, we may to a great extent control physical pain and un ease, and by the exercise of will power inherent even in the weakest, we may to a great extent, control mental distress. On the contrary, if we are sick bodily, and add to our physical ailment, mental distress and discomfort, fear and apprehension, we thus, of our volition, add ten-fold to our misery. Science One Thing, the Christian Religion Another. The writer concedes that inasmuch as the so-called Christian Science teaches one to control their mental distress and discomfort, and cultivate fortitude and resignation, it does, and no doubt has done a world of good to panicky, apprehensive, fearful and superstitious suffering humanity. But when it comes to the treatment of the sick, the science and practice of mediine cannot except any sort of oneideaed or one-sided method, which in severe cases is criminally hazardous. Besides the name itself is a misnomer and misleading to the uninformed; the physical sciences deal strictly with the laws and principals that govern every phenomena of atomic matter. There is also a science of religion which Is an Inherent principle of every nation and people on earth this in lnate human religion. The doctrine of Jesus of Nazareth, called the Christian religion does not pretend to either a physical or a metaphysical science. He said simply "I am the way." So it is that one may be an eminent scientist and yet be a devout Christian. Indeed, all the sciences in the trueism of "the correlation of forces and conservation of energy," confirms Christ's doctrine of the "brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God." While on the other hand, one can be a perfect Chris tian and not know the A, B, C, of science. The Christian religion, therefore is even broader than all the sciences, - THERE IS NOTHING IN THE UNIVERSE SUPERNATURAL OR MYSTERIOUS The instinct of self-preser vation, inherent In every living thing as well as mankind, naturally induces caution, which the animal, and man as well, naturaly exaggerates until it becomes actual fear andapprehensica of any thing, the naturo of which we do not understand; and so it is that a natural instinctive inherent self-preservative -caution and precaution, begets fear, undue apprehension and mental worry, untill we are haunted by an uncanny ghost, but it is all ia the mind remember, a mental, shadow simply. Again, any operation or occurrence of which we are entirely uniformed as to its essential nature, this universal law of self-preservation renders us proneto look upon as mysterious and "supernatural," which leads at once to superstition. No matter what one's belief, no normal and rational human mind can eliminate and obliterate entirely the idea of a first cause, an Omnipotent Creative Wisdom, "God who maketh all. In this rational sense, in the universe, on earth, in every created thins Is God, thia being true, to say that anything is "snpfmatural" implies that it

was not created by natural laws, aud

to say that this Omnipotent Wisdom did not create ono single thing in the -whole universe, is equal to de nying that there Is a God. Tht fact is, there are physical occurren ces and there are superphysical pLen tomena, but nothing " supernatural, 'the mysterious, uncanny, gostly, fear ful Is all In our own mind, as sfcakr spere aptly says: ' "Art thou not, fatal vis!on, sensible To feelins as to sight? or art thou be A dagger of the mind; a false creation , Proceeding from the heat oppress I hra In ?" Psychic Phenomena. What is psychic phenomena ac So-called "divine" healing, spirit na! ism, etc, etc., is simply psychic oi mind Phenomena. A little study of the brain, its ex ceedingly delicate and high plane of physical organization, the variety of marvelously definite functional activ Ities in health, and the wonderful vag aries manifest when diseased, will tt once rob all psychic or mind phenc mina of mystery and the "supernatural, or of Its divine origin, excer in the sense of '.God who maketh U" and "each after his own kind." So called "spiritualism then, is not in re ality a spiritual manifestation at all. it is purely psychichic or mind manifes tations. which understand me, ia a? real as mind itself, but it is all entirely within the mind, and is properly psychicism and not spiritual. Influence of Mind Over Body. Every physician in theland understands this, and no physician of anv experience, but makes more or less use of this valuable principle in his everyday practice, both consciously and unconsciously, and just in proportion to his knowledge of psychological medicine will be his success in its employment to aid him in the cure of disease. But the human mind is very easily led astray, especially in any thing that the individual does not, and will not, understand; so that as the late lamented Lincoln said, "You can fool part of the people part of the time, you can fool some of the people all the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time."
