at First Church.

Is
The free publlo lecture on Christian
Science, delivered yesterday afternoon
In the edifice of First Church of Christ,
Scientist, Nineteenth and Everett
streets, by Ezra W. Palmer, member of
the Christian Science board of lecture
ship, was Targely attended. The les
ture will be repeated at the same
place this evening and tomorrow even
ing at 8 o'clock.
Mr. Palmer said in part:
"The grreat exponent of the omnipo
tence of God was Christ Jesus. By
reason of his sinless birth and eon
ship with the Father, he knew and ex
pressed the will of God. The religious
systems of his day claimed to teach
the true worship of God. But these
systems produced no results to prove
their unity with the Father. Jesus
not only knew the power of God he
proved it by results. He proved that
what claimed to be real on the evi
dence of the corporeal senses was nt
real but illusion. He reversed the false
claim that matter has life. Intelligence,
or power, either to injure or bless
mankind.
"The false, carnal mentality which
St. Paul declared was 'enmity against
God.' Jesus stripped of all pretence
and characterized it as "a liar and the
father of It.' He never tauorht that
God created matter, or that God was in
any way responsible for sin, sickness
or death. On the contrary, he exposed
the unreal basis of these errors and
destroyed them through the might of
mind.
Lesson f the Prophets.
"The healing power demonstrated by
Jesus was not confined to himself on
account of his sonship with God. It
was the divine knowledge of the Father
available for all men. Jesus taught
his Immediate followers the power of
God to heal the sick and free the sin
ner. But the saving gospel of the
Christ, the Messiah, was not confined
nor could it be confined to a chosen
few, to one age, or to one people. It
was a universal gift of God to all his
children.
"When we turn to the New Testa
ment we find that the 12 disciples went
forth and healed; the 70 did likewise.
Paul, who was not at first a disciple,
healed the sick and raised the dead.
' And ror a long period or time as great
as that from the landing of the Pilgrim
Fathers at Plymouth Rock till the
present day the early Christians
healed as a part of the work of the
church. Contemporary writers and his
torians corroborate the healing work
of the early Christians.
"Christian Science was discovered by
Mary Baker Eddy In the year 1868
Recovery from an Injury the result of
an accident through the spiritual un
derstandlng of 'a passage In Matthew's
gospel was the falling apple which
gave her the clue to the unfoldment of
divine, scientific Christianity. The
time was propitious for a new spiritual
advance of the race. A great war had
Just terminated which destroyed in this
Nation the bondage of human servi
tude. Great reformations in religion
had taken place; the grip of hard and
dogmatic creeds was loosening, and the
heart of humanity was being stirred by
a clearer sense of the Fatherhood of
God and the brotherhood of man. A
more liberal spirit was permeating
politics, literature and religion. Ideas
of social service were taking form
and education of the masses had be
come firmly established In the more
advanced civilized nations.
Mrs. Eddy Well Fitted.
"Mrs. Eddy was well fitted for her
great work. Of Puritan ancestry she
was reared in the atmosphere of
Christian home. From childhood she
had been deeply religious. She was
profound student of the Bible and
meditated upon its truths. She had
knowledge of Greek and Hebrew. She
had sounded the depths of scholastic
theology and found It inadequate to
give the bread of life.
"She had tested the various systems
of medicine and healing and found
them wanting. She investigated spirit
ualism and hypnotism and cast them
aside, because they failed to enlighten
the thought. She had been tried in
the crucible of affliction, knew the
poverty of mortal existence its pains, J
Its false pleasures. Its illusions and
she knew the hunger of the human
heart to know its God.
"After her healing she withdrew
from -society for three years, studied
the Scriptures, and searched for the
scientific basis of Christianity. In 1S75
she gave to the world the text-book of
Christian Science. 'Science and Health
With Key to" the Scriptures." a book
which has done more to revolutionize
the thoughts of men regarding the
truths of the Bible than any other book
that has ever been written. Referring
to the Biblical basis of her work, Mrs.
Eddy said in 'Science and Health.' page
126, which I will read:
Application Set Forth.
" "I have set forth Christian Science
and its application to the treatment of
disease just as I have discovered them.
I have demonstrated through Mind the
effects of truth on the health, lon
gevity, and morals of men: and I have
found nothing in ancient or in modern
systems on which to found my own,
except the teachings and demonstra
tions of our great Master and the lives
of prophets and apostles. The Bible
has been my only authority. I have
had no other guide in the straight and
narrow way of truth.'
"Why, one may ask. is it necessary
to gain this science of knowing Truth?
Isn't one religious belief as good s
another so long as the individual is
honest and sincere In holding it? Be
yond question some religious beliefs
are better than others, and a genuine
test of any religious belief Is. How
much of the spirit of Christ does It
Inculcate? Are its believers better,
purer, healthier, holier for it? The
final and supreme test of any religious
belief Is. 'Does it crown its work by
destroying sin, disease, want, and mor
tality?" If not. then that belief must
of necessity give place to a better
knowledge of God which does accom
plish this result.
" 'So fight I.' said Paul, not as one
that beateth the air.' and this Is the
distinguishing characteristic of Chris
tian Science. It doesn't beat the empty
air. but teaches its adherents how to
fight and win the prize of spiritual
mastery 'against the rulers of the
darkness of this world, against spirit
ual wickedness In high places.' Isn't
exact knowledge necessary to gain suc
cess in every walk of life?
current comment that one religious be
lief is as good as another?
"The science of mind must be gained
to attain spiritual dominion over the
flesh and all carnality, and the prize
Is worth the effort. To prove, for in
stance, that health Is not something
that can be lost, but is a spiritual
quality. Imperishable and perfect, sy
nonymous with purity, holiness, and
harmony isn't that truly worth while?
Many thousands have given their
earthly all for health and have not
found It, because they have not looked
to God for it. And yet, health Is the
gift of God, free as the air of heaven,
within the reach of every honest man
who will strive, as St. Paul declared,
to 'be strong in the Lord, and In the
power of his might.'
"Christian Scientists are a happy peo
ple. They are happy because they have
found 'the secret place of the Most
High,' a state of consciousness serene
and lofty free from the aggressions
of evil; a state of consciousness to
which the realities of Infinite Truth
and Ive unfold. This exalted state of
consciousness is not a special gut to a
favored person nor to a privileged de
nomination. A loving God has pro
vided It free for all men. Christian
Scientists are not concerned that they
should add adherents to the Christian
Science Church, but they are concerned
that all men should learn to know God
aright, for only by this means can evil
and sorrow be destroyed, and men be
hold "the holy city, new Jerusalem,
coming down from God out of heaven."
We would ask you, therefore, to
study 'Science and Health With Key to
the Scriptures.' by Mary Baker Eddy.

RAINIER HAS $4500 FIRE
Knights of Pythias Hall Total Loss;
Residences Scorched.
RAIXIER, Or.. Aug. 13. (Special.)
A spectacular fire of undetermined
origin broke out at 6 o'clock this aft
ernoon in the attic of the Knights of
Pythias Hall, a frame building of two
and a half stories used for an opera-
house and lodgerooms, and owned by
the Knights of Pythias Building Asso
ciation.
Owing to the strong up-stream wind
the volunteer fire fighters, under the
direction of Fire Chief W. C. Lee, de
voted their entire attention to saving
the residences adjoining, owned by
Sarah Dibblee, Veronica Herman and
Ed Clark. The lodge hall was entirely
destroyed with a loss of about 4000.
covered with $3500 insurance. Other
losses will be about 1500, partly in

13 Miners Killed by Blast.
LONDON, Aug." 13. Thirteen miners
were killed early this morning by an
explosion in the Ashington Colliery,
the first automobillsts for two seasons
to drive through the pass.
The second distinction won by her
was in the two-minute speech contest
at the Ad Club, where she carried off
first prize. Competitors from all parts
of the Northwest participated, each
speaking in behalf of the city from
which he camo.
Mrs. Roberts' talk for Central Oregon
and Redmond, which won the prize
over the other contestants, follows:
"Much speaking maketh a man seem
to be a fool and much boosting of a
town doeth it no good, but legitimate
and truthful advertising of a locality
brings results.
"We do not say much about Red
mond, for Central Oregon is our pride
and we realize that if people know of
Central Oregon they will learn of Red
mond. for as surely as the rain and
little sun make the famous Portland
rose. Just so surely will 'a healthy
growing, thriving farming community
make its ceo4er grow. Redmond, as
the hub of Central Oregon, will need no
advertising, save that given by its sur
rounding country and its products sent
out over the broad land.
"God has given us the sunshine, the
climate, the pure mountain streams
and man has scratched the ground,
planted the seed and diverted the
mountain streams over the thirsty soil
and, lo! the desert has blossomed as
the rose, and from It come those prod
ucts which make it famous.
"This is what has happened in a few
short years and from a once wild waste
we now make 'the butter that betters
the bread," grow pork sweeter than
Iowa's famous corn-fed, raise potatoe
that the take the sweepstakes in any
land products show, and rear a peopl
contented to live and thrive in the bes
place of God's great outdoors Central
Oregon. '

To be able to bold "its place in tbe sun," is the supreme test of an asphalt roof. It
Is the sun, not rain or snow, that plays havoc with a roof. If it can resist the drying

takes "its place in the sun" and holds it longer
than other similar roofing because it is made
of the very best quality roofing felt, thoroughly
saturated with the correct blend of soft asphalts,
and coated with a blend of harder asphalts.
This outer coating keeps the inner saturation
soft, and prevents the drying out "process so
destructive to the ordinary roof.
"The General's" blend of asphalts is the result
of long experience. It produces a roofing
more pliable than those which have less satura
tion, and which are, therefore, harder and drier.
At each of the General s big mills, expert
chemists are constantly employed to refine, test
and blend the asphalts used; also to experiment
for possible improvements. Their constant
endeavor is to make the best roofing still better.
The quality of CERTAIN-TEED is such that
it is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according
to thickness ( 1, 2 or 3 ply). Experience proves
that it lasts longer.
