There are several of these “enemies” which can be named over, but for the purpose
of this article let us spefck of the narcotics, the family which includes morphine, whisky,
coffee; cocaine, tea, tobacco, etc., all the same family, each member having a different
|| degree of strength.
Now, coffee is perhaps one of the most plausible and deceitful of them all.
It has many friends, but coolly and cunningly knifes them, and they don’t know
where the blow comes from.
g Many and many a poor, nervous wreck with weak heart, suffers by day and lies sleep
| less at night without suspecting that his “dear old friend,” Mr. Coffee, is quietly pushing

Ltl.,
| simply cannot give up my coffee,” Is the wail, and so day by day he grovels and the
f master stretches him a few turns tighter on the rack of suffering.

Make sure of one thing. Once you become conscious of the fact that a fight is on,
f suffering follows steadily until you are able to rule.

fthWl comes the rew r ard—comfort health and for the victor.
Jff-'is good work to stand rigth up and smash away with a “mailed fist” but it’s much
mors comfortable to whip Mr. Coffee by throwing him “right over the side of the moun-
U taim*' and give his place to Postum.

ALDRICH S AMENDMENT
ADOPTED BY SENATE
Paragraph Defining Cotton Cloth Is
Considered —Aldrich Raps Beve
ridge, of Indiana.
WASHINGTON. June 7—Cross-fir
ing by Dolliver, of lowa, and Aldrich,
of Rhode Island, and a rebuke admin
istered by Aldrich to Beveridge,
marked the further consideration of
cotton schedules in the senate today.
When the paragraph defining cotton
cloth was taken up, Aldrich presented
an amendment which read: In the
ascertainment of any and all the par
tlculars and descriptions upon which
the duties, cumulative or others, im
posed upon cotton cloth, are made to
depend the entire fabric and all the
parts thereof and all the threads of
which it is composed shall be Indud
ed.’* The paragraph as amended was
adopted.
Dolliver protested against the in
clusion of cotton window holland* iu
paragraph 319 with a duty of 3 cents a
square >ard and 20 per cent ad valor
em. The transfer of this paragraph
made an increase in the duty over the
Dlngley law. On a roll call, the
amendment was adopted by a vote of
41 to 26. Senators Foster and Me-
Enery of Louisiana, voted with the
Repuolicans and nine of the progres
sive Republicans voted with the Demo
crats.

MRS. EDDY SAYS |
IMS FALSE
Christian Science Leader Answer*
Statement That She Is “Either
Dead or Mindless Puppet
BOSTON, Juue 7—Mrs. Mary
Baker G. Eddy, bend of the Christian
Science church, gave to the United
Press today a signed statement in re
ply to the attack made upon her by
Mrs. Delia M Gilbert, who declared
that Mrs. Eddy "either dead or a
mindless puppet." Mrs. Gilbert, in a
sensational article printed in a New
York newspaper, said she would call
a conference of members of the Chris
tian Science church and reveal "fraud
and trickery" to "perpetuate fiction iiv
an unseen and unseeable leader." Site
is convinced, she said, that the man
she met at Mrs. Eddy 's home was uu
able to produce a "leader in the flesh."
Mrs. Eddy's statement follows:
Chestnut Hill. Mass., June 7, 15>0i>.
To Whom it May Concern:
* 1 have the pleasure to report to
one and all of iny beloved friends
Hiul followers that 1 exist in the
I flesh, and am seen daily by the
members of my 'household and by
those with whom 1 have appoint
ments.
Above all this fustian of either
denying or asserting the personal
ity and presenee of Mary Baker
Eddy stands the eternal faet of
Christian Science and the honest
history of its discoverer and foun
der. it Is self evidence that the
discoverer of an eternal truth can
not be a temporal fraud
The cause of Christian Science Is
prospering throughout the world
and stands forever as an eternal
and demonstrable science, and l do
not regard this attack upon me as
a wrail for when these things cease
to bless they will cease to occur.
And we know that all things work
together for good to them that love
God. to them who are called ac
cording to His purpose. What shall
we then say to these things'’ If
God be for us, who can be against
us?**
<Signed) MARY BAKER EPPY.
By her order. Mrs. Eddy today per
mitted a select company of newspaper
men to enter her new home in Brook
line. They saw her depart in her car
riage for her dally drive. They In
spected her home, saw the furnishings
that had been brought from Concord
and the study of the aged leader—but
there was no public interview. The
correspondents were permitted to see
her, to note that she is more feeble
and on her behalf a statement was
given out setting forth her position.
Mrs. Eddy is a feeble woman. That
is not surprising when it is remem
bered that she is 88 years old. But
while her bodily health is feeble her
mind is apparently still active. Her
eye is as clear as ever, and so far as
one could Judge by outward appear
ance. she knew all that was going on
in her home.
Mrs. Gilbert, in New York, issued an
open letter to all Christian Scientists,
asking their co-operation in a cam
paign of exposure and purification.
Her letter reads in part:
"Those in control of the mother
church in Boston and of that house < f
mystery in Brookline —the falsely
avowed home of a living and thriving
Mary Baker G. Eddy—cannot refute
successfully this assertion:
"Mrs. Eddy is either dead or a help
less, mindless puppet m the hands of
conscienceless men.
“This truth has been revealed to me.
and in humble obedience to the will
of God I now openly declare the facts
In this message I appeal to all honest
Christian Scientists to cooperate with
me for a purification of our church.
I am not writing rashly or acting
hastily. Within the last three weeks
I have been within the so-called home
of Mrs. Eddy and have studied at cl«*o
range the fraud, the trickery and the
revolting mystery by which the Boston
organization seeks to perpetuate the
pernicious fiction of an unseen and un
seeable leader.
"This profane mockery will continue
indefinitely unless honest Christian
Scientists who worship God and not
the fetish of a poor old woman’s name
combine to expose and exterminate
the fraud. The very life of Christian
Science is Involved, and it is in the.
name of Christian Self nee—the faith
which alone can lift humanity out of
the slough of error—that I call upon
you to act.
"Asa preliminary step I ask you to
confer with me without delay either In
person or by letter. To each of you I
will fully reveal every fact in my pot
session bearing upon conditions which
surround the fiction of leadership
maintained at Boston and Brookline.
“I will tell you why there is no
Christian Science church at the Plaza
hotel in this city, although its organ
ization had been virtually perfected.
"I will lay before you the documen
tary evidence proving that this church
was throttled and killed by the ma
chine at Boston acting in the name of
Mrs. Eddy.
"I will give you every detail of ray
recent investigation* In Boston and
Brookline, of my conferences with the
directors .of the mother church, of ray
dealings with a man known as Mrs
Eddy’s private secretary and of the
pressure which lias been brought upon
me to keep silent. 1 will tell you
also of an appeal made to me in the
parlor of a lea<Mnf Boston hotel by i
the chief executive of the mother
church, who Wf-pt like a woman
when I refused to pledge myself to
sUence. There were witnesses to this
interview and every word la care
fully preserved. I told that agent of
tno frightened tricksters in control :
at Boston that to see and talk with the
hidden leader waa all that I asked. I
It was then that he wept. I asked tho
one impossible thing.
“The time has coine when Christian
Science must purge itself of dishon
esty Mary Baker O. Eddy lives now
in history only. The fetish of her
name is all that remains ”
