AN OUTLINE OF
SCIENCECHURCH
Interesting Facts of Religious
Faith Are Given at
the Orpheum
Interesting facts relative to the
founding of Christian Science and
its growth in the United States were
told last night at the Orpheum The
ater by John C. Lathrop, of Boston,
a member of the Board of Lecture
ship of Ihe Mother Church, the First
Church of Christ, Scientist. His sub
ject was "Christian Science: Salva
tion Through Spiritual Sense."
"Christian Science was discovered
by Mary Baker Eddy fifty-two years
ago," he said. "Thirteen years after
the discovery the first Church of
Christ, Scientist, was organized in
Boston, Massachusetts. Since then
nearly eighteen hundred organized
WEAK, SICKLY,
RUN DOWN WOMEN
Must Look to Their Blood if
They Wish to Regain Their
Health and Happiness
Many symptoms peculiar to women,
such us dizziness, fainting spells,
backache, headaches, Kidney and
Bladder troubles, languor and nerv
ousness are in a large part due to
impurities in the blood - or worse
still, anaemia, which means that the
Blood is thin, watery and lacking in
nourishment.
If you are rundown, if your energy
or strength are below normal, if you
have to force yourself to do your
daily tasks, you should enrich your
blood supply at once. In this way—-
you start a sure foundation on which
to build your health and happiness.
You may easily and quickly renew
both the quantity and quality of
your Blood by taking a short course
of Novo San.
Novo San, the new Bed Blood
Builder, has already won a place in
the hearts of scores of women by
restoring their youthful health and
vigor. It not only rids your blood
of poisonous impurities, but actually
makes new blood, in this way vitaliz
ing your whole body, charging you
with new powers of endurance and
energy, stimulating the action of the
kidneys, liver and bowels, promot
ing regularity, health and comfort.
Your jaded nerves are steadied and
your overworked, undermined, weak
ened system is quickly nourished
back to health and strength.
MAKE THIS TEST TODAY. Go to
Geo. A. Gorgas or H. C. Kennedy and
obtain a trial package of Novo San
(13 days' treatment). Take two tab
lets three times a day after meals
regularly for 12 days and if you do
not feel at least 50 per cent, better,
return the empty package to the
druggist and yet your money.

TUESDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
I churches or societies have been es
tablished over the world, forty-one
| cities each containing two churchc?
|or societies, and twenty-four other
cities each containing from three to
eighteen churches or societies. At
j the Wednesday evening meeting held
[| in these churches and societies over
I ten thousand people each week pub-
I licly and voluntarily bear grateful
! testimony to the healing and regena
! tive benefits they have received
j through Christian Science.
I "There Is little difference of opin
! ion about the fact that mortals need
j a clearer way and a truer point of
| view. All agree that the world seems
j to be about as full to-day as ever
Jof sin and fear, hatred and jeal-
3 1 ousy, impurity and disease, vanity
I and selfishness, and that calamities,
; tumults, and wars have not substan
. | tially decreased up to the present
hour.
! "Surely intelligent people do not
I any longer believe that God is the
cause of human discord and suffer
ing, anv more than they believe that
t the principle of mathematics is the
[ cause of the failures of pupils to
; j understand and prove its unchanging
•! rules.
•I "Gaining an understanding or
I ' spirit and the omnipotent power of
,! spiritual laws, and an understanding
1 ; of the false nature of matter and of
-1 mortal mind and material laws, the
■ seeker is armed successfully to cope
I with any human discord. It is then
i surprising that he should presume
j to attempt to heal disease as well as
sin. What is disease that it should
elude the minister and be assigned
to the physician, and what is sin
! that it should defy the physician and
' he allotted to the minister? From
whence originated both? From God.
No, neither the one more than the
other. Jesus* identical handling of
sin and disease should long ago have
convinced the world that they have
an identical source.
"The operation of Christian Sci
ence in healing disease and over
coming sin is the action of the di
vine Mind. God, the Principle and
power of the universe through good
thoughts, that is, thoughts which, ad
mitting that they have action and
power, arc equally good for every
thing and everybody in creation.
These thoughts come to a human be
ing through the study of Christian
Science, and reveal this divine power
which is omnipotent, and make this
divine power available in proportion
as it is understood and accepted by
means of such thoughts.
"Heaven is not a region nor a lo
cality to he entered physically, but
it is a state of purified conscience, a
; state of spiritual understanding, a
salvation from sin, sickness and
death."

said: "1 sure was in had shape and no
one knew it better than 1 did. it had
my goat for fair. I was all in and my
nerves shot to pieces with worriment
and sleepless nights. One dav I over
heard a customer telling what I'hos

could not get a supply quick enough.
"That's the whole story, just Phos

hungry, the way they took hold of it,
and say what a relief. I felt like a new
man. Could sleep at night, and get up
in the morning feeling like a two-year

CONFIDENCE MAN
REAPS MILLIONS,
FIGURES INDICATE
Crude Devices Give . Way
to Modern and More
Profitable Methods
( hicago, May G.— The American I
confidence man reaped a harvest
of more than $10,000,000 last year,
according: to figures compiled by
(Jiicagro authorities. This is the ap-'
proximate amount actually collect- 1
ed from the credulous public by pro- ,
lessional confidence operators and'
does not Include the millions gather
ed in annually by the various stock- '
jobbing schemes.
The crude devices of the old time :
confidence man, with his shell game,!
three card monte, gold brick, green I
goods, money changing and lemon!
games, have given way to modern
methods, more complex, and more
profitable.
The really successful confidence
men of to-day usually have summer
and winter homes, ride in limousines
and are aided by richly gowned wo
men, authorities say. They are edu- :
cated and far more clever than their
brothers of old days, whose favorite
trick in Chicago was to sell the Ma- !
sonic Temple to a "rube" for a small I
sum, or agree to make the building,
"turn around."
Vp-to-Date Schemes
hand selling schemes, peddling of |
worthless mine and oil well stock, ,
wire tapping and "fake" sporting!
events are now the hand maidens of i
the modern confidence man, who !
matches wits with the banker, capi- j
talist and lawyer, instead of dealing i
! with the ignorant ruraliste. Nearly j
I all the victims of a Chicago gang
I recently sent to the penitentiary were '
bankers and businessmen. The;
gang's loot aggregated more than j
half a million dollars a year.
Fear of publicity keeps most vie- |
tinis quiet, thus giving the high class |
confidence man a certain degree of |
immunity, authorities say. They \
add that Federal prosecution for us- !
ing the mails to defraud has been a i
big factor in breaking up gangs and j
recently brought, about conviction of
half a dozen leading confidence
workers.
Clean Up Big Money
"Tom Brown, who come from De
troit and made his headquarters in
New York, was father of the pres
ent typo of confidence man," said
William A. Pinkerton, veteran detec
tive, in striking a comparison be
tween the old and new swindlers,
"lie operated forty years ago and
formerly was a three card monte i
man. He was known as a bunco
stcerer and won by fake lottery
schemes and other crooked gambling
1 devices. Then he. invented the gold
brick with which ho toured the coun
try. The green goods game came
later and Brown had many imitators
who picked up thousands annually.
Wire tapping and other schemes now
used developed from those old
games. The modern operators don't j
bother with small money and often
clean tip $lOO,OOO in a single deal.
The old timers thought $l,OOO a big
job.
"Victims arc not really honest at
heart, for they often enter into a
scheme to cheat another fellow. The
small town banker and businessman
has proved a shining mark for
swindlers. They cannot risk their
reputations by complaining. It is
surprising how many shrewd busi
nessmen fall into the net.
It is estimated that $3,000,000 of
the $10,000,000 total was obtained in
Florida, where hundreds of confi
dence workers are said to operate,
particularly among winter tourists.
Kemper Denies Rumor
That Soldiers' Pay Is to
Be Cut to $l5 Monthly
A rumor that four months after the
armistice the pay of a private in the
United States Army would revert to
$l5 per month was brought to_ the
attention of Colonel James B. lCcni
per, in charge of the Harrisburg Re
cruiting District, with headquarters
at 335 Market street, this city. The
Colonel issued the following state
ment:
"There is not a word of truth in
the rumor. An Act of Congress fixed
the present rate of pay of soldiers,
and before there can be the slightest
change in this rate it will be neces
sary for Congress to pass a new law.
The pay of a private in his oiiginal
enlistment is $3O per month, board,
lodging, clothing, medical and dental
attention furnished gratis, and so
fur as any information that has
reached this office is concerned, or
has come to us from the newspapers
or what we have been told, there is
not the slightest disposition on the
part of Congress to decrease the rate
of pay in any way. In view of the
real desire on the part of those in
authority that men shall enlist and
re-enlist in the army, the rumor is
of great harm and should be strongly
contradicted."
Enlistments for every branch of
the service, everywhere, are still
open, the Colonel added, and infor
mation will be freely furnished con
cerning rates of pay. etc., to anyone
applying at any of the recruiting
stations in the district.
