Tha Result.' One of the characteristics of H. H. Rogers of Standard OH fame was his love of a joke even at his own expense. The humor lost nothing by that in Mr. Rogers' opinion. This was one of his favorite stories: He, William C. Whitney and several other friends were discussing the succession to the presidency of Yale, then vacant before the election of Professor Hadley, who then held the chair of economics. Another professor, longer at the university than Dr. Hadley, was a candidate, and his chances of winning the honor were under discussion. "Well," said Mr. Rogers, "If I had been as long around Yale as Professor So-and-so I'd be president." "No, Henry." retorted Mr. Whitney. "You would probably own the ground and the buildings, but you would not be president." Dotroit Free Tress.

A TERRIBLE SEA TRAGEDY MEMBERS OF CREW OF ILL-FATED BARK RESCUED AFTER WEEKS OF PRIVATION ON AN ISOLATED REEF. Sydney, .N- S. W., July 19. Their faces pinched from days and days of hunger, their bodies aged years from the weeks of privation, five members of the crew of the ill fated Norwegian bark Errol, wrecked June 18 on Middleton's reef, reached Sydney today aboard the steamship Tafua. When the Tafua came to the reef iu response to the distress signal of the ship wrecks, they had! abandoned all hope of being rescued. Desperate from want of food, they were prepared to resort to cannibalism. It was a question of the survival of the strongest. ', ., Children Thrown in Sea. The weak were to become the food of their-stronger shipmates. Already two little children of the skipper of the Errol had been thrown Into the sea by their mother. She had preferred death in the ocean for her babies rather than see them meet the fate that the hungry glances of "the seamen told her was in store for them. The Errol sailed from Chimbote, April 1 for Newcastle, N. S. W. She was a trader touching at various islands in Australia. Fair weather and fine winds marked her voyage until June 18. On that night she was caught in a terrific squall. Despite the able navigation of her skipper and the desperate work of the crew she was driven for off her course. In the morningn with her rudder broken and the crew helpless from their work of the night before, the bark was sent pounding through the surf on the dangerous shores of Middleton's reef. Seventeen members of the crew were lost when the vessel was pounded to pices by the breakrs. A small boat containing the captain, wife and two children and three sailors managed to gain the shore. No Life on Reef. 'I can not tell what happened on that reef," said Captain Sven Swanson after he landed today. "It was a horrible dream. I did not believe such things could happen. When we landed we had a few biscuits and one jug of water. Then we settled down- to watch for a sail or await death. '.The hunger began to tell. Soon I saw the sailors gather together. They spoke in ' whispers, but I knew their words as well as if they were shouted to me. I had only my marlinspike-to protect me and I was one man against three. I do not blame the men. I felt the hunger pangs myself. I knew how they suffered. That night I called my wife. We kissed our babies and) I can't tell it. But their suffering ended. They are sleeping now in the ocean. Another day passed. My wife and myself had determined to die fighting. We did not consider suicide. Then thank God, we saw the masts of the Tafua and today we are on land. I will never leave the island. The sight of the sea Is a terror to me."
Frank EL Leonard Lectures on ChrisIIsn Sdscce
(Aahville, N. C Gazette-News.) Frank H. Leonard, C. S. B., of Brooklyn, N. Y., a member of the Christian Science board of lectureship of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Boston, addressed a number of people in the Auditorium last night on "Christian Science; a Demonstrable Religion." . Mr. Leonard was introduced by George S. Powell, who said in part: "The study- of Christian Science In connection with the v Bible changes thought from the material to the spiritual; it changes thought from death to life, from sorrow to joy, from sickness to health, and from poverty to inexhausted and unlimited supply. "The scriptures tell us that 'whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things, are honest, whatsoever things arelust, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, if there be any virtue, and if there by any praise, think on these things. "Acknowledging - God as the One Mind and man as the reflection of this mind. Christian Scientists are consistent in their efforts to change human thought to the divine in order to bring man back to his true relation to God and to his fellowman. - "It ought to be self-evident that evil thoughts produce evil effects, and that good thoughts produce good effects, and that good thoughts can not bear their full fruitage as long as we believe that evil is a power ecual if not superior to good. This belief Is a pro duct of the teaching of the serpent and is without divine authority. "The gentleman who will address us this evening is an authorized representative of the Christian Science church, and his lecture so far as it shall cover the subject in the short time he has to speak, will present Christian Science belief as taught by Mrs. Eddy in Science and Health with Key to the Scripture." Mr. Leonard said, in part: There is nothing in the world today which is so occupying the thought of the people as Christian Science and there is a vital reason why, regardless of all the misunderstanding and misrepresentation relative to the subject, people should still insist on knowing the truth about it. Salvation. People are awakening to the fact that the one great problem in life is that of individual salvation and the more they think about salvation, the more they are convinced that they want it now, and the less willing they are to wait for it until after they have passed through "the valley of the shadow," with all the mystery and fear and doubt surrounding that pas sage. Heretofore people have read the Bible; today they are studying it; and the result' is an awakening which car ries with it the convictions that many things formerly believed to be real, essential, God-created and God-given, are now seen to be put misconcep tions relative to God and! what He creates, misconceptions which need to be corrected so that freedom may be obtained from that , bondage wherein a mistaken belief has held mankind. Eternal Life. Unconsciously we have all fallen into the error , of thinking that eternal life will begin for each of us when our experience , here has ended, but thoughtful , consideration makes us know that eternal life never began and will never end, that it is the same yesterday, today, and forever. The fact that life is and is eternal, is positive proof that death is not, and leads us to search the Scriptures . that we may find how to turn from death unto life. It will be argued that this statement of Jesus referred simply to the spiritual life; and this is true, for there is only one Life and that Life is Spirit. God. The work which Chris tian Science is doing for mankind to day is enabling us to eliminate from consciousness the belief that there is any life other than the spiritual, and is bringing dominion and power to the one who before was held in bond age, subject to all things, master of none. When Jesus said, "If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death," the saying he referred to was this: "He that believeth on me. the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." The works He was doing when He made this statement were these: He was healing the sick, cleansing the lepers, casting out evils, and raising the dead, "by the Spirit of God," to His glory, and to the liberation of all those who turned to Him. 4 There Is no way whereby we can demonstrate that God is true, other than by doing His will and manifestins His supremacy in all things. The Bible teaches us that God is "a very present help in trouble." Mankind say that He is in cases of sin, but that if one be sick, he must turn to medicine if he expects to regain his health. There is nothing in the Bible that rive3 authority for any one to say in what kind of trouble God may be a very present help, nor to say there is a trouble that is beyond God's ability or desire to overcome and destroy; and Christian Science teaches that a man has just as much right to take a sick trouble to God as he has a sin trouble, and just as much right to ex pect freedom from one as the other. Christian Science and the Bible. It is said that Christian Scientists do not use the Bible; that an they use is "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," written by Mrs. Eddy. No statement could be more untrue, because the disclosure of the Word which maketh alive and that Is what Christian Science is comes only as the result of continuous study of the Bible with the aid of the Christian Science text-book, which is what its title Indicates, a "Key to the Scrip tures.''' Nearly all denominations have their "Bible helps." prepared for the use of the lay members by those presumed to have knowledge of the spiritaul teach ings contained In the Scriptures. "Science and Health" is the "Bible help" of the Christian Scientist; it is
the book with which the Bible is Studied, and it has rent the veil of mystery surrounding the letter of the Word from top to bottom, revealing the spiritual import of the Scriptures, disclosing to us "holy , of holies,"' wherein God is revealed to us as no longer an
unknown God, no longer a God to be ignorantly worshipped, but a God who is Love. a God who never turns from His children, a Father more tender, more considerate, more compassionate, more loving than human consciousness can conceive. Christ Acknowledged in Christian Science. It is frequently alleged that Christian Science denies God and the Christ; in refutation of this statement, I desire to say that God is referred to over twelve hundred times in the Christian Science text-book, an average of over three times to every page thereof, and every reference to either God or Christ brings out a more exalted thought than the world has heretofore known. If one will procure a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," written by Mrs. Eddy, and read her definition of God (p. 587) and of Christ (p. 583), he will never cuestion the reverence ac corded them in the teachings of Chris tian Science. Universal Belief Cannot Alter Facta. What about this belief of sin, dis ease, and death being real! A universal belief is not any more a foundation for fact than is the belief of a single person. To illustrate, let me call your attention to the time of Columbus. You remember that he was treated with scorn and contempt and cast into prison because he stood up before the wise men of his time and said that every one of their scientific deductions, all of their scientific theses, all their scientific experiments to prove that this earth is flat were worthless, because the earth is a sphere. Who was right? Columbus was right, of course, and the wise men were all wrong. What effect did the universal false belief have on the shape of the earth? None whatever! The earth continued to be a sphere just the same. What effect did the false belief have on the people who believed it to be true? So long as the people believed the false belief to be true,-they, were held within the narrow confines of that belief, and stayed on that little speck of the earth's surface because they feared that if they sailed beyond a certain point they would fall off the edge of the earth on to that something or nothing on which Atlas did or did not stand when he did or did not hold up the earth. Temptation Never From God. In order that there may be sin there must be temptation, and in order that there may be temptation there must be sin, and they both must proceed from the same source. Is this source God or mankind? If it be God, we are lost! If it be mankind, we are saved. Let this question be answered for us by James and John. James writes, "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God; for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man; but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin; and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death." John writes, "Whosoever is born of God (and as God is the only creator, none is truly born nor may be unless he is born of God) doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." Dare we in the face of James' statement that lust is the origin of sin, and John's statement that "whosoever is born of God . . . cannot sin, because he is born of God." ever again associate the name or nature of God with sin? Scientific Prayer. Mankind says God is Immutable and changeless, but hundreds and millions of times every day men are beseeching the immutable and changeless God to change, change, change; until mankind conceive of God as the very center and , circumference of eternal change. So long as we believe God to be responsible for all things, and yet kneel and pray that He may forget His immutability and take away what we do not want and give us . what we think we do want, is it not true that if our prayer were suddenly granted we would be frightened beyond measure? Is it logically possible for us to have very much faith in prayer, so long as we are held in the bondage of this belief in a changeable God? If we would take Into our consciousness that changeless love, that changeless religion which Jesus the Christ preached, there would be no doubt, no fear; and we would go to God in prayer with the )XOX0l

serene confidence, the Implicit faith, that He who heareth in secret will re
ward us openly; which, as the Master taught, is our birthright and heritage. The Discoverer of Christian Science. The revelation of Christian Science came to Mrs. Eddy as the result of a lifetime spent in continuous search and desire for the spirit of the Word and the things of God. As a religious reformer she occupies a position unique in the history of the world un swerving in her trust in the goodness of God and unquestioning in her obed ience to His commands. This calls on her for such meekness, humility, selfsacrifice that she never could live a life were it not for the protecting care of a real, livable. demonstrable religion, wherein she finds Immunity from the sufferings of those who turn away from the Christ-concept of God. Ever since 1S66 Mrs. Eddy's life has been devoted to the work of bringing to mankind this revelation of the way of salvation. She has done this with such singleness of purpose, that man kind is awakening to the recognition of her work as inspired, that Christian Science is the spirit of the Word which Jesus portrayed. Christian Scientists do not worship Mrs. Eddy, nor do they in any sense of the word defy her in their thought The whole teaching of Christian Science leads us to put self under foot ; to have no way and no will save God's way and God's will; and Mrs. Eddy asks the world, each one of us, to follow her only so far as she follows Christ. In her following of Christ she has been the Instrument whereby the feet of hundreds of thousands have been planted upon the rock of the proved truth of God's promises, and against that rock, in the words of the Master, "the gates of bell shall not prevail." We do love our leader, and we give her the allegience and devotion to which her tireless labor In mankind's behalf Is entitled. I have related what Christian Science did for me physically, let. me add more. As a boy and young man - heard continually that God was responsible for all things; that suffering and sickness and misery and wretchedness were in some way associated with His great plan as salvation, and in my hours of agony and helplessness I was so overwhelmed with fear of God that I reached u point where I had no belief in Him, and my whole desire was to get away from Him if It were possible, to find something that would shield me from the sickness and misery that I was continually called upon to suffer. I had no God. I had nothing to trust, nothing to love, nothing to look forward to, and I had come to feel that I did not care to hear about God, and church-going had become a burden to me. Then Christian Science came, with the assurance that God is Love; that He has nothing to do with evil; and this teaching took away my disease and my suffering, and took with it my fear,, my dread of God. Christian Science came to me and gave me God and when I tell you this as my experience, I am telling you the experience of countless thousands an over the globe. Is it any wonder that we love the one who has been so selfless and so faithful in her endeavor that through it God has come to us, that salvation has been brought within our apprehension? We are willingly, joyfully obedient to her every teaching, because it is through her continued lar.
