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. M

Warns Against Divine Healing

uul fcwatlowtu
may be loarned from tho following
paragraph, takon from tho Vancou
ver Bun:
"In tho belief that tho facta sur
rounding the death of the late Ituv.
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

Untruths.
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.

And an excellent shortening
Did you ever cook
with salad oil?
Frying with Wesson Oil is not a new
way to cook. You don't have to learn
how. You always melt any fat to a
liquid long before it is hot enough to
fry in. With Wesson Oil you start
with a delicious salad oil, instead of a
melted fat that well, frankly, would
you care to eat your ordinary frying
fat raw?
tThere is no difference in the way ybu
fry but an amazing difference in
what it tastes like.
