CHRISriAX SCI .fttJH Oft A IIORSE. Christian Science, so called, has re cently met with an unfortunate ex perience in Chicago *n an experiment on sick horse. Air.Ed ward A. Kimball owned a beautiful horse to which lie was h I most as sincerely attached as he was to the Christian Science fad. The horse fell sick, and the anxious owner had an excellent opportunity for t. sting the virtue of “science” on the animal, and being a man of great faith in Ins beloved colt, he quickly determined to cure him on strictly Christian Science principles. He plausibly argued that what was good for him as a man must be good foi> his horse. His first step, therefore, was to gize for it, blit if the doctor makes a mistake he buries it. If we make one there is a lawsuit, tall swearing and a smell of sulphur, but if the doctor makes one there is a funeral, cut flowers and a smell of varnish. If it doctor goes to see another mail’s wife he will charge the man for his visit. If the editor calls on an other man’s wife he gets a charge of buckshot. The editor works to keep from starving, while the doctor works lo w;ird off the.gout, yflie editor helps men to live better, and the doctor assists them to die easy. The doc tor pv.Ils a sick man’s leg, the editor is glad if he can even collect his hill at all. Revenue only? We are liv ing for tun and to spite the doctors. —Dublin Telepho ie.

This Mr. Kim-1 ball accepted, as do all faithful fol lowers of their fad. He knew the horse was only sick "in his mind,” because no horse or man was ever or could lie sick except in Ins imag ination. The only thing needed to make the horse perfectly sound in mind aud limb was to free him from isiiug under his vision or to propose a practical remedy for them.
