PAOE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, ftrRDFORI). .OREGON", AVEDXKSDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1923 HERE'S A CHANCE, ENGLISH DUKE !S AFTER ALE TASTER TWICKENHAM. Knff. Tho offic ial ale taster to the Duko of North umberland, Frederick Stuckley, of Slon Manor, Jsleworth, Is dead. In the good old days when KnifUah ale was real ale, pungent, rich in color and possessing a kick unobtainable from any of tho lighter, frothy brews at one time famlllur in America, many Englishmen cormldered the ducal ale taster the most fortunate man In the king's realm. He had the authority to enter a public house, call for- beer, taste It, and condemn It If not of good quality. In recent, yoars, however, ho had not taken advantage of his official posi tion. The offlco of alo taster extends back to the time when the Saxons ruled in England. The Injunction to the official on assuming, his duties was as follows: 'You shall swear that you shall well and truly servo the king's majes ty and the lord of this leet, In the office of alo taster. "You shall havo diligent care dur ing the time of your being In office to all the brewers and tipplers within your office, that they and every one of them do make good and wholesome ale and beer for man's body, and that the same be sold according to tho prices limited and appointed by the king's Justices of the pence.

Ilcginatd Edwards, of Kelowna, who was ono of those pronounced cured by Mr. Charles S. Price during the recent evangelistic and healing meet ings at tho Vancouver arena, aro of public Importance, intimate friends of the family have authorized publi cation of tho following statement of tho raao: "Tho statement was given to the Vancouver Hun by D. J. Welsh, prin cipal of L,ord Lister school, New WestnilnHte, at whofie homo Mrs. Edwards, tho widow, is staying. It was confirmed in'' its essential facts by Dr. J. O. McKay, of the Holly wood sanatorium, where Mr. 13d , wards died last Wednesday morning, "Mr. Kd wards has been for many Kcrrlsdalu J In lit tut lnirrli, iron which ho r-fignMl U years ago. After a year in the I'nited States and a year in New West minster he ac cepted u call to Kelowna Baptist church, believing that the Okanagan climate would bo good for him. He had had Incipient tuberculosis, but tho disease- was not active, and-he was, to all appearances, a Htrong, healthy man. He had to avoid over exertion nnd he had to rcat at fre quent intervals, otherwise, no cai- ried on the work of his pastorate until the price .meetings opened in Vancouver. . , "Ho cam to Vancouver as. a min ister deeply Interested in this evange listic campaign to witness and study tho conversions and healings reported to be brought about under Mr. Price's mlniHtry. UIo was profoundly im presocd and went before Mr. Price on tho arena platform to .be. healed, of tho conditions which impaired his goneral good health. "116 was anointed by Mr- Price nnd he collapsed on. the platform. He told mo afterwards that ho did not Ioho consciou.sneHs. but ho did not know that ho had fallen down. It was apparent to his friends who saw him that- ho came under some pow erful psychic Influence. "In a few moments ho came around and ho stated that ho was healed. He was absolutely sincero and was moved to a high pitch of religious fervor by his exnorlence.- Under the Impulse of this suggestion ho attended all of the Prico meetings and took an ac tive part. He was most enthusiastic and was nuito carried away. "As a result he overtaxed his strength, and a week ago last Tues day suffored a completo norvous breakdown. He became dally worse and was taken to Dr. McKay's sanato rium, where he died on Wednesday morning. ' 1 "Dr. McKay stated that ho had no, personal experience with Mr. Ed wards' previous medical history, but that tho statement by Mr. Welsh was entirely consistent with Ilia observa tion of tho case. 1 "Violent over-excitement and over strain of tho nerves was tho cause of his death," said Dr. McKay. Wo earnestly caution true Chris tians to stay away from these men and women with their subtle inven tions and perversions of scripture, Wo warn our readers, especially Christian women, not to oxposo them selves to tho influences of these meet ings, in which a dangerous hypno tism prevails. o iook ior a wwnj r'i-.lot a m.es ( i,ivninnt greater deception on these lines.

Tho lying which "healers" practise is enough to show the spirit which lurks behind.lt. They are enthusias tic fanatics, Insane on tho question of healing and then in their unbal anced condition they say things and do thlijfi.s which are deceptions. The following, is taken from the pamph let by Mr. White on "McPhcrsonism." As Mr. Whito in an Oregonlan the In-! cidfnt ia entirely trust-worthy: I "Two pastors of Eugene, Oregon, listened to Dr. Prico tell of the great miracles wrought by Mrs. McPhorson. Then, he said; 'You do not havo to go to l-.es Angeles to seo a miracle wrought. There Is a man who lives five, and a half miles north of this place, who, when ' ho came to the platform for healing at Albany, had a frightful cancer. I prayed over him ami ho was healed. Thexo is now only a little red spot left where tho cancer was, and that is fast dis appearing. If you want to see for yourself, go und see." The two1 pas tors took Prlco at his word and drove out to the man's home. His wife came to the door, and when sho heard of their mission said, 'Yes, Hallelujah! My husband is healed!' The husband came from another room, with a bath towel on his shoulder on which the cancer hud- been" discharging. His face was consumed so.. that you could not only see his teeth, but also his Jaw bone. Using one side ' of his mouth, ho cried, 'Yes, Hallelujah Price prayed for mo and I am healed! Tho poor man had been so hypnotized that ho believed he was healed when he wan dying of cancer!"J "The Hridal Call." edited by Mrs. Mcpherson, April 12, 1923, has a full report of the healing of u woman stated to be blind of one eye fru 4- years with ulcerations covering the other eye. A well-known minister in Los Angeles followed up this case and pro vea tho" report to be absolutely false) Wo have before exposed similar de ceptions, false reports und " untruo statements in. connection with - the Mcpherson and Bosworth campaigns. The harm which Is being done cannot bo estimated. May all sane and spir itual believers stay away from these cults. Motorshtp In Distress PORT ANGELES, Wash., Dec. II.
