'J.
JESUS' WORK IS DESCRIBED
Speaker Says God Is Supreme In-
telligence Man Is Command
ed to Preach and to Heal
Through Knowledge.
Absolute Christianity vas defined as
what Jesus taught, did and Jived." by
Charles I. Ohrenstein, member of the
Christian Science Board of Lectureship,
who spoke to a large audience at Sec
ond Church of Christ, Scientist. Kast
Sixth street and Holladay avenue, last
night
The speaker declared that Christ di;l
rtis marvelous works because of his
knowlege of their underlying principle
or cause.
"It will be admitted." he said, "that
this knowledge was the knowledge of
God. the knowledge of the reign of the
Jvlngdom of God, the knowledge of man
and of man's relationship to God, which
lie came to teach mankind.
Answering the question, "What is
God?" the speaker said:
"When It is remembered that al that
Is .called Intelligence could not have
formed the idea indicated by the least
primary object, it will be appreciated
that the great First Cause, called God
must be supreme. Infinite intelligence
or mind."
He emphasized the fact that Christ
commanded his followers to heal as
well as to teach.
Healing? Is Commanded.
"Those who were commissioned by
Jesus to preach," he said, "were also
commanded by him to heal. Not only
did Jesu3 command his followers to
preach and to heal, but he commanded
them what to preach, and In the light
of the Christian Science which he
taught it was plain to them, as it is
ouite plain to Christian Scientists to
day, that what he commanded them to
preach was intended to and did heal
the sick, and redeem the sinful. What
was It that he told them to preach?
"And as ye go, preach, saying. The
kinsrdom of heaven is at hand.'
"What Is the kingdom of heaven?
"If we remind ourselves of the idea
of God which Christian Science teaches,
and which has just been indicated, we
hall see that the kingdom of heaven
which Jesus commanded his disciples
to preach is indeed at hand, and that
w-e are entitled to full enjoyment of
this kingdom, for in God we live and
move and have our being.
"Recognizing this that the place
wherein we are is holy ground, how
many of us would behave unseemly,
debauch ourselves or others In any
way, lie, cheat, rob, believe that there
is something in our environment to in
jure, infect or impair us? Would that
disease, or lack of ease, which Is dis
ease In the making, be banished, and
that ease and peace of being in the
presence of our father, God, have pos
session of us.
KlDffdom at ITand.
"Teaching this. Christian Science
(hows it is not strange that the ser
mon which Jesus bade his. disciples to
preacli should heal, and there will be
nothing strange about it if many here
are healed by learning and remember
ing that the kingdom of heaven is at
hand, indeed, not only at hand, but, as
Jesus also said, within yCu, within
man."
Of the question, "What Is Man?" Mr.
Ohrenstein said:
"Jesus showed forth the perfect man.
but not because of his physique. He
said, 'the flesh profiteth nothing.' Can
that which is truly man or woman be
fhown forth by mere flesh and blood?
And God, the all-intelligent, all-powerful,
eternal mind, spirit, life, truth and
love, said: 'Let us make man in our
own image, after our likeness.' 'So
God created man in his own image,
male and female created he them,' and
this godlike man is the only kind of
man there is."
Mr. Ohrenstein said that the recog
nition that no man has any other true
mission than that which Jesus had. led
Mrs. Eddy to the discovery of Christian
Science.
Mr. Ohrenstein was introduced by
Attorney B. E. Haney. The lecture will
be repeated at the same place tonight
and Thursday night at 8 o'clock.

FLUSH KIDNEYS
WITH SALTS IF
BACK IS ACHING
Noted Authority Says We Eat
Too Much Meat, Which
Clogs Kidneys.
Take Glass of Salts When Kid
neys Hurt or Bladder
Bothers You.
No man or woman who eats meat reg
ularly can make a mistake by flushing
the kidneys occasionally, says a well
known authority. Meat forms uric acid
which excites the kidneys, they become
overworked from the strain, get slug
gish and fail to filter the waste and
poisons from the blood, then we get
tick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches,
liver trouble, Dervousness. dizziness,
Sleeplessness and urinary disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi
ment, irregular of passage or attended
by a. sensation of scalding, stop eating
meat and get about tour ounces of Jad
baits from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in a few days your kid
neys will act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate the kidneys, also to neutral
ize the acids in urine so it no longer
causes Irritation, thus ending bladder
w eakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
Jithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications. Adv,

Riddell, emphasized Mr. Riddell's good
reputation and the fact that the trial
jury had recommended leniency. He
asked the court to take this Into con
sideration and impose a fine only. This
Judge Bean declined to do.
"The court is not justified in dispos

when there are exceptional circum

a prison sentence, though the length
of the sentence is not so important.

Women everywhere have become
enthusiastic about the new petro

stipation. Most women know how
this bane of women takes the joy
out of life.
"Women, always the worst suffer

strongest advocates of the remedy
called Ameroil. which consists sim

The paraffine (Ameroil) taken in

caused the stoppage. The action
which necessarily follows as the
result of the softening and lubri

Ameroil is colorless, odorless and

not nauseate the most sensitive
stomach. There are no disagreeable
after effects no pain nor distress.
Ameroil is sold at all Owl drug

The Treatment of
Influenza or La Grippe
It is quite refreshing these days to read of
a clearly defined treatment for Influenia or
La Grippe, In an article in the "Lancet
Cllnlo," Dr. James Bell, of New York City,
says he Is eonvlnoed that too much medica
tion is both unnecessary and injurious.
When called to a case of la grippe, the
patient is usually seen when the fever Is
present, as the chill which occasionally
ushers in the disease, has practically passed
away. Dr. Bell then orders th&c the bowels
be opened freely with salts, "Actolds" or
citrate of masnesla. For the high fever,
severe headache, pain and general soreness,
one antl-kamnla tablet every three hours

DRINK A GLASS
OF REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Says we will both look and feel
clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid Illness.
Sanitary science has of late made
rapid strides with results that are of
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application of its untiring research
is the recommendation that It is as
necessary, to attend to internal sanita
tion of the drainage system of the hu
man body as It is to the drains of the
house.
Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
splitting headache, stuffy from a cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom
ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a
daisy by opening the sluices of the sys
tem each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should each morning before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the stom
ach, liver and bowels the previous
day's indigestible waste, sour bile and
poisonous toxins; thus cleansing.
sweetening and purifying the entire
alimentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The action of
hot water and limestone phosphate on,
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
vigorating. It cleans . ut all the sour
fermentations, gases, waste and acidity
and gives one a splendid appetite for
breakfast. While you are enjoyinjr
your breakfast the phosphated hot wa
ter is quietly extracting a large vol
umo of water from the blood and get
ting ready for a thorough flushing of
11 the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
ered with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness:
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly complexions ara
urged to get a quarte pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store.
This will cost very little, but is suffi
cient to make anyone a pronounced
crank on the subject of internal san
itation.. Adv.
