S., 'deliver a lecture Monday night at Dittman theater on “Christian Sci ence; The Realization of Humanity's Hope.” Following is an extract of his lec ture: “The healing which takes place in Christian Science is a mental pro cess whereby our erroneous belief that life, substance, and intelligence exist in matter gives place to the understanding that man is spiritual and therefore subject alone to di vine control. We have been mis takenly led to regard man as pos sessing a material body made up of hands, feet, eyes, ears, internal or gans, and so on, including a mass of cells located in the cranium where he is supposed to do his thinking, in spite of the Scriptural assurance that God made man in His image and likeness. Now chemists tell us that the hauman body is composed of chemical elements such as water, I lime, salt, iron, sulphur, and so on.! When a sense of pain or inflamma-' tion has appeared we have been taught to pour something disagree able into the material body, or to j rub something upon it, in order to j make it more comfortable, not real izing that it actually has no more j sensation or intelligence than a log j or weed or a bag 01 meal, excepting 1 for the so-called mind of whicn the ! material body is the externalization. , In other words, a mortal body is j only the manifestation of mortal mind. Now as nearly all of you know, the word “mortal” is derived from the Latin mors, mortis, death —from mori, to die; hence it is the erroneous, mortal concept of body i which gives us so much concern and which is said to finally return to the dust of which it was made, j It is from this false concept that ! proceeds all the pain, sickness, and distress from which mankind cries j out for deliverance. “If the expected relief from bodily discord is not forthcoming as the result of the use of drugs or other material remedies, it not infrequent- j ly happens that a change of cli- j mate is recommended, as if geogra phical location could have any more upon the elements contained in the physical body than if they were contained in a bottle. In every such < case, the cause and effect are pre dicated upon the same fallacy of in telligent matter, but, may I ask, how would the drugs or medicinal; treatment affect the same matter | after the so-called mortal mind had left it? "We have no evidence that Jesus ever employed drugs in order to ef fect a cure; yet he healed counless cases without the aid of any ma terial means. Paul said, “Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind,” therefore it is the hu man mind that must be educated ; out of its false beliefs, and that is ; the basis upon which Christian Sci ence operates. “Shakespeare uttered a truism when he said that “there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” If our premise is wrong, it naturally follows that our conclusions and results will likewise 1 be wrong. If the patient who be lieves in the efficacy of drugs and the physician who depends upon drags fail to accomp-rsn the antici pated results, the discouraged pa- | tient wonders if there is any relief possible in some other direction. Here enters Christian Science with its message of hope, declaring that there is a way out; that the way of salvation which Jesus made clear is still open and unobstructed and that the promises He made—with which the Scriptures abound—were not limited to his immediate hearers but to all who have eyes to see and ears to hear. Mrs. Eddy tells us in her book "Retrospection and Introspec tion” that “the mortal body being but the objective state of the mor tal mind this mind must be renovat ed to improve the body” (p., 34). When the afflicted one begins to realize that the promises are true and applicable specifically to him, the shackles of fear and dodbt be gin to loosen; he ceases the mes meric contemplation of material bodily conditions, and there dawns in his consciousness a gleam of hope which expands into spiritual understanding which sets him free. Neither human will power, sugges tion, nor the hypnotic control of one human mind by another has brought about this demonstration. “How can wre doubt that the same God who led the children of Israel through the Red sea and guided them through all the years of their pilgrimage to the promised land, who delivered Daniel from the lions' den, whose protective power enabled the Hebrew children to walk un scatched through the burning, fiery furnace; how can we doubt that this same God is able to deliver His children today from the mental, moral, and physical discords with which they seemingly have to con tend? “Christian Science is proving hourly that all things are possible with God, and therefore there is a Great Bargain WThilc They Last Stromberg Carlson Radio All Electric 9-Tube Sets — Factory Guaranteed — Tubes Included Model No. 633 $150 Delivered Former price $365 Model No. 523 All Electric 8-Tube Sets — Factory Guaranteed $100 You Pay the Express Tubes Included Former price $295 Both Sets have two dials well known to be the best for care ful tuning in of stations.

Harlingen Set To Entertain Firemen Of Valley Tonight HARLINGEN, April 9.—Enter tainment was prepared, today for 200 to 250 volunteer firemen from Valley towns who are to gather here tonight for the quarterly meet ing of the Fifth District of the state organization. E. C. Bennett, fire chief here, who has the entertainment in charge, said everything was in readiness. The program calls for a dinner in the dining room of the Reese-Wil-Mond hotel to be followed by a business session which will include four talks on topics of interest to firemen. Rev. J. Stuart Pearce will de liver the invocation, A. L. Lewiss will make the address of welcome and Ross A. Marcus, Mission fire marshal, will respond. Mayor G. F. Dohrn of Mission, Paul Phipps, superintendent of Harlingen schools, Mayor J. Scott Brown of San Benito and Fire Marshal Hampton of Edinburg are the speakers.

April 9.—The body of Mrs. H. C. Elliott, 49. well known San Benito resident who died here suddenly Saturday morning, was sent to Ames, la., last night for burial after funeral services had been held at the local Mittanck Chapel with Rev. C. E. Marshall, nastor of the Methodist church, of ficiating. very lively hope for the so-called hopeless. The healings which Je sus accomplishd are beautifully de scribed by Mrs. Eddy in Science and Health (pp. 476, 477) as follows: ‘Jesus beheld in Science the perfect man, who appeared to him where sinning mortal man appears to mor tals. In this perfect man the Sa viour saw God's own likeness, and this correct view of man healed the sick.’ Christian Scientists are striv ing to follow the example of Jesus by healing the sick in this same way, j and the opportunity for such an at tainment is open to all.” * BENEFICIAL RAINS FALL Growing Crops Over Valley Aided By General Pre cipitation A general rain expected to be of material benefit to growing crops over the Valley fell Monday night, and the weather forecast saw a probability of continued local show ers Tuesday night. The Precipita tion was general over the who.e ox south Texas. 1 All Rio Grande river stations re ported rain with Mission breaking a record of over a year’s duration. Rio Grande City also received a heavy downfall, recording 1.47 inches. Mission obtained *.58 inches. San Benito recorded .5 and Brownsville .85. Shippers and farmers agreed Tuesday that despite the fact that the rain would probably delay ship ments of beans and potatoes for several days, the benefit done grow - ing crops would be of great value to the Valley. The rain was of a warm nature, which is the best kind for the pro duce. The lowest temperature re corded in Brownsville Monday night was 72 degrees as compared to 73 at 8 a. m. Relative w'arm nights have been the order for some time, and this also Is an aid to the crops. Cotton especially Is expected to be given impetus by the precipitation. . „ .. The Rio Grande showed slight rises at all points in the Valley except Brownsville. The rains also hit the watersheds of the San Juan and Salado rivers in Mexico and it is believed that the Rio ‘Grande will continue to rise from above Mission dowrn during the next 12 to 24 hours. The river is now in a low stage, ranging from -0.4 at Laredo to 8.8 at Rio Grande City. OIL CO. TO BUILD MISSION. April 9 —Erection of a new home for the Marcell Oil com pany will be started at once.

Neuritis Pains Quickly Yielded To New Sargon “Sargon is the only medicine that relieved me of neuritis after search ing for six years for something to master my misery. “I would be doing my housework, and all at once, hard, pinching MRS. GERTRUDE MCDONALD. pains would start in my left side, and extend up into my shoulders, and many a time I had to sit down, or go to bed, until the ‘spells’ had passed. “Then, I commenced to suffer with stomach trouble. After eating, hard pains would come in the pit of my stomach, and everything I ate disagreed with me. I had taken so many medicines without any last ing relief, and was so tired, worn and distressed with pain, that I was on the verge of despair. But I will never cease to be thankful for giv ing Sargon a chance, and I am still marveling at the relief this wonder ful medicine gave me. If it had done nothing but end my neuritis, ■ that would have been enough, but it helped me in every way, and I am feeling better than I have in years. My. appetite is back, I eat and enjoy hearty meals, and noth ing disagrees with me. Every ache and pain is gone, my strength and energy have returned, and I feel like a different woman in every way. “While the Sargon tonic was building me back my strength. Sar gon Soft Mass Pills cleansed my system of poisons, by stimulating my liver and regulating my bowel action. I can never say too much in praise of this wonderful new treat ment.” The above statement was made recently by Mrs. Gertrude McDon ald, highly esteemed'resident of 737 Melba St., Dallas. Sargon may be obtained in Brownsville from Cisneros Drug Stores; in La Feria from Malone Pharmacy; in San Benito from Pal ace Pharmacy; in Los Fresnos from Butler Drug Co.; and in Rio Hondo from Rio Hondo Drug Store. 1 § San Benito Girl Is.
