The Christian Scientist appro- prelHMKls that, it is a part of his Christian duty to disprove affirmations of diHfiise, lo adcfto the accumulation of evidence that sin, disease and death aro neither ere- aifd. sent, sanctlonod, nor toloi atod by God. It is because tho Chris- I Man Scientist is awakening to the essential ungodliness of evil that ho regards tho healing of. disease by' spiritual means as a distinctly religious activity.

Tho primary motive in t'his. activity is the demonstration of the perfection of man, and this not for'the gratification of man, but for the glory of Cod. When the people, at sight of the healings of Jesus, glorified Cod, it must have been because they caught, the religious significance ot what, wets taking place. Josus, of. course, undertook this.

He declared lhal it was the Father with him doing this works. Ha did always those things which pleased the bVhor. Of himself lie could do nothing. He was about his Father's business, and that business, accord InM 1 to tho record, had largely to do with healing. JHSIIH distinctly commanded his (liHc.iples to go into all the world and heal tho sick, and thuy were to loach all men all things ho hac commanded them.

Certain signs he said, should follow them that be lieved, certifying to the genuine ness of their discipleship. Among these signs he specifically namoc the healing of disease. Those who loved him would keep his com mandmonls, Could the for healing as an indispensable par of Christianity be more complete; Surely It is the business of religioi to meet and master everything un like Cod. Surely nothing could be more unlike Cod than disease. Christian healing Is distinguish ed from the results accredited to drugs, hygiene, or hypnotism ii that Christian healing involves moi al regeneration.

From the very beginning, the circus was held In a tent, the center of which formed the arena where the performance took place. The seats for the spectators were in tiers ascending from the central space.

The same exhibitions which characterize our own- circus were found in the first one. There were feats of horsemanship, such as leaping through hoops from the back of a galloping horse, standing with one foot on each of twc horses, as they gallop side by sidu. Assures Dependable Uniform Quality at No Actor Badly Rattled A young man had to take In some amateur theatricals, part was quite a minor one part His and there was not a great deal for him to do or say. After the shooting scene the young man had to enter the wings and say: "Hark! 'Tis the pistol!" Now, during rehearsals a real pistol 'was never used, and the youth, on receiving his cue, walked iu nod performed his part quite efliclontly. Oa the opening night, however, a real pistol was substituted for the cue, and this apparently took the young man by surprise, for as the pistol went olH he rushed on and gasped: "Ye gods! What on earth was that?" The Lowly Potato It seems rather strange that the Irish potato, which hi uow such a common article of diet the world over, was once a pilgrim and stranger, so to speak.

When it was introduced into Europe in the Seventeenth century, it encountered bitter prejudice and had a hard struggle to reach popularity. Many people refused to eat potatoes even in time of at one time some laborers-rejected potato soup, saying: will not: eat this washy that affords we'will not be. chopped potatoes like hogs.
