TollarESDA.Y, JUNE 8th, 1899 DIVINE HEALING laave recently received sever- al communications dealing with the wonderful cures effected by Christian Scientists, It is a conception we do not wish to encourage. Of late years the efforts of Christian Scientists and divine healers hare brought forth much unfayorable comment through the press, on the platform, and in the pulpit. There are many good rea,sons or this, without doubting the honesty of those who claim to be the divine agents or those, who believe they have received assistance, by their faith, from a divine source. The safety of society demands, whether those who take part in this method or curing are honest or not, the strict observance of its rules fox' the protection of its men3bers. What, e ver raay be the true state of the case whether cures ha,ve been or can. be effected through Inunan. agency by divine power, such cannot be recogniz- ea by society. It would be inimical to the sectiriby of the community if sunh methods were. FOP some of it e =em- bers might be affected with serious diseases and if those so suffering were not to conform to the usages and laws of the community to which they be- longed disaster would be the inevitable result, In the State of New York there is, at the present time, a bill before the Legislature to illegalize the prac- tice of faith curing, divine healing and So forth. Public opinion there is strongly against the employment of any means to cure sickness, but those established by the schools of medicine under the protection of the law. Many cases have been discovered in that state, where not only death has result- ed from the refusal of the sick to re- ceive medical help, but the eransmis- sion of disease has taken place. We would deal with this matter, of ilivine healer, with all seriousness, as we must respect those who are par- ticipants in the belief and work. But it does seem alMeet inconceivable•thats how in this 1.0th century, with all its .edvantages of obtaining knowledge, the cures which are effe ctecl by diyhie healer, saints, Christian Scientists, eand others of similar profession can - be attributed to a divine cense. Ignor- ing, for the sake of si niplicity, that evevy physical effect must have a phy- sical cause-etreating the power of the inind as a physical cause. Surely the highest expression of the divine power in the hes•lIng att, is in the oeganized thought and experience of a qualified physician. It is not in oar pro-ell:tee to expatiate didactically upon the sub-* ;led. It is our duty to point, out the inconsistency of the Methods referred to and tbe danger which attaches to thene and we think that the action of the government of the New York State is a good example to imitate.

The Latest News --- Northern Africa is troubled with a plague of locusts. The ninth attempt to float thesteam- er Paris has failed. Prof. jehin Prune the eminent vio- linist, died in Montreal yesterday, aged 60 years. It isnow stated that 20,000,000 Rus- sians are suffering from the famine. It was announced that the Canadian Pacific wile build a big hotel in Winni- peg this year. Owing to the extremely hot weather several of the soldiers camping in Lon- don, are in the hospital, there. The body of Hugh Begley, who was drowned in September, 1898,was found on San Soucie Island, north shore of Georgian Bay, on Saturday, Agnes Flemmieg, of Brandon, Man., charged with infanticide, has been sent up for trial, She admitted leaving the child out on the prairie for two days anft nights, from the effects of which it died. A boy namea Ernest Gilbert, of Col- poy's Bay, near *Marton, was kicked in the head by a horse, he was driving eo pasture. Drs. Fisher and Hough have removed part of the broken skull from pressing- against his brain, but his recovery is doubtful. John Iohnston and his two sons, of St. Thomas, were driving over a cross- ing at W est Lorne this morning:about seven o'clock, when a freight train ran into the rig,instantly killing the father ancl mortally wounding one of the sons. The rig was carried on the cow catcher for ever a quarter of a neile. The crop report of the Manitoba and Northwestern Railway for the two weeks ending June 1 is a most encour- aging one. Wheat is for the most part up four inches above the ground, and owing to the very on weather it is expected crops on Jelly 1 will be as far advanced as on the sanie day last year. Barley and oat seeding is nearly completed'. The acreage under wheat is slightly increased over last year, while there is considerable in- crease in the acreage sown to barley and oats. A little boy, aged three years, son of Wm. Scott, one mile north of Tilson- burg, was drowned in a. cistern Friday afternoon. The child. Was playing in the yard,when his mother missed him, and'wentin search, finding him in the cistern. She sprang in and managed to lift him out, but was unable to climb out her self, the water being up to her shoulders. There was no one near the house, but a gentlemau driv- ing by heard her cries, and. ran to the rescue, and. succeeded in getting Mrs. Scott out. When they picked the child up life was extinct. The bill to fix the -weight of a dozen eggs at one pound and a half per dozen is sound in principle. The variation in the size a eggs has led legislators in other countries to regulate their sale by weight. Some people may laugh at the suggestion, but why it should strike any one as ludicrous that food. in packages of varyirig :weights should be sold accerding to weight is not very easy TO una entail& eneept that breach of custom always does seem more or less ridiculous at first. Like Daniel O'Connell's bill, which provided that every quart bottle should bold. two pints, it has its justification in an eco- nomical fact and a principle of justice. And may there not be another rea- son? If , eggs were legally required to weigh a certain amoent per dozen would the law not lead tie an ireieeeeee_ Inent in the breed 'If bon ltry.

The deceased had not been strong for some years and a severe attack of la grippe, during the whiter, still further reduced her strength. Her heart becoming af- fected she gradually sank mad passed peacefully away. The death in Inc 70th year,. of John Dickson, on Friday evening last, at his home in Wingham adds another to the list of aged worthies who have passed away during the past, few months. Mr. Dickson had been in de- clining health for some time past, and the end was not unexpected. He was a native of Scotland and came to Can- ada ie 1884. Some time ago the Court of Appeal for Ontario gave judgment!against the township of hicKillop insfa-vor of the township of Logan, Patrick Gaffney, John Bohan, John Nicholson and John Rogers, the suit having arisen over a certain ditch. McKillop was not satisfied with the decision, and ap- pealed the case to the Supreme Court Of Canada a Ottawa Which is now sitting, On Thilredeas last May 2,,;-tia, ilen Scatalin, died at the age of 61 years, after an illness of over a month. This is the second death within a short time that the Scanlin household have had to bear. On April 20th, a younger sister, Catherine, aged 53 years, passed away after a lingering illness. These two ladies have lived with their broth- ers in Clinton for a number of years, and were vespected and much thought of among their naang friends. . For the past three or four seasons, the cup presented by Mr. J. R.

On the recreation grounds here on Satur- day last they had to lower their col- ors to the Kippen elub, and it will now be for the boys from the south to feast their eyes on the tropliy. Kippen 3; Dublin 0. Although they lost, the Dublin boys made a heroic fight, and have the satisfaction of knowing that they were beaten by a slashing team. A.
