For more elm a week Mrs, Eddy
had been ailing, or as a Scientist

Still she was Op and about, taking

she took to her bed and did not leave

impersonating her for years. Mr.
Fallow Gadd that the leaders did not
really care what Was said. They
knew Mrs. Eddy and he himself had

SKETCH Oh' HER 0,AREER,
Mrs, Mary Baker Glover Eddy, the
founder of Christian Science, and in-
terpreter of the Bible to over GAON
portions, was born in Bow,. New Hamp-
shire, on. July 16, 1821, Sh.e was the
youngest of six children, and early in
her school days developed, an ambition
to write a book.
A sketch ,of her career, published some
time ago, said: eirs, Eddy has said that
she was tsvelve years of age When she
first united with a church, et has been
shown by the church records teat
was mistaken in her age, for she united
with the First Congregational Church of
Tilton at the age of sertenteen, by linos
fession, 11 is quite likely, however, that
she had some intense religious experi-
ence while still residing at now. She was
a very devout little girls for she con-
fesses that having read that Derdel
prayed seven times daily, she lox wed
the habit of doing likewise, thinking
it the dutyof all good Christians, ;she
not only made these earnest prayers,
but kept a record of. them, *Wet she
might examine herself from time to time
to see if she improved in grace.
Little wonder that this child, so frail
and delicate, was impressionable. An ate
dont religious nature was born in her
from a stoney pious lather and a moth-
er of angelie temperament; and religious
discussion probably kept her nerves in
a highly -excited state. For a period. of
twelve month% slio relates of herself,
she repeatedly heard a voice calling her
by mune. • This calling seemed to be
from her mother, and she would run to
her to ask what was wanted. Her moth-
er became perplexed and` modems, espe-
deity when a cousin visiting them de-
clared she, Um, had heard the "voiees"
calling "Mary, Mary, Mary." The netd
was sittiug by her grandraother;s knee
in a, little chair at the time and by no
means in an esctatie 'mood. That- night
Mrs. Baker read to her youngest child
• the story of Samuel from the „Bible, and
told her to reply when the voice called
again: t'Spee.h., Lord, for thy servant
heitreth." Onee again the call etano, but
Mary Baker was afraid to reply as her
mother had. tola hers After that she nev-
er again Inc) the strange experience.
The day came when the home chalet
was broken, up. Her brother Samuel,
who was in the contratt business,
brought Major George Washington Gto-
ver, who was also a contractor, to his
home as it guest. This vigorous young
bustuess man woo Mary Baker's heart,
and in 1843 they were married one de.
parted, for Charleston, South Carolina,
where Major Glover had busine-ss eon,
tracts. Mrs. Eddy tuts said thee while
living there she was much agitated over
the 'subject of slavery and not only set
free those elaves her husband owned, but
wrote letters on the subject for the pa-
pers, which stirred up so much agitatton
her husband was alarmed for her safety.
Following the birth of her eon she
began writing articles for various mag-
'
ezines -chiefly educational,
In 1844 her husband died and in
1$53- Mrs. Glover merriest a, second

LEVEL CROSSINGS.
Municipalities Must Share in Their
Cost With Railways.
••••••••••••••••••••
Montreal despetch: ° Chairman Ma-
bee, of the Railway Corernision, this
afternoon emphatically laid -down the
principle that in future municipalin
ies bear it fair share a the cost of
protecting level orossings, and in
other ways protecting the public.
"If we try to load upon the rail-
ways," said Chairman Mabee, "the
whole cost of these safety appliances
we should soon have them out of
business, or 'Glee rate for freight and
passengers would, have to go up.
Municipalities are growing in every
direction, and why should they not
bear a share of the cost of thie pro-
tection, which is often needed to pr*.
teat the public from its own care-
lessness, There in no use arguing
egttinst this, beeatute the municipalit-
ies have got to pay, and the only
questiOn is the amount."
The Commissiers eettled eeveral
easee against the Canadian Notthern,
that it must put in level eroesings,
but that the test of the up -keep
should be borne 80 per cont. by the
city and the balance by the company.
The COminiSion finished ins work in
Montreal to -day, and oturned this
