CHRISTIAN SCIENTIST SECT JOURNEY TO BOSTON TOWN FROM ALE PARTS OK WORLD Mrs. Livingston Mims Tells of Movement—Beauty of Architecture of the New $2,000,000 Church By SELENE ARMSTRONG. Since man first heard, ever so faintly, the call of the Infinite, and looked from self to deity; since the human heart pulsed to a larger than human hope and reared Its first rude shrlns to Its first crude god, there have been many shrines and many pilgrimages. To Mecca, holiest city of all Islam, the faithful of Mohammed have Jour neyed throughout the ages. In Japan, for centuries, millions have purifled themselves that they might approach the Slntoo shrine at lays, and yearly do faithful feet climb the hallowed paths of the sacred mountain of Nlkko to worship In the temples of Its graven Idols, and In Its magnificent grove# which surely (he hand of the living God hath planted and watered. And In days of old, three Wise Men made a Joyful pilgrimage by the light of an Eastern star. Journeying until “they were come unto the young child with Mary, his mother.” The Hebrew, staff In hand, turned ever toward Jeru salem, and Rome early became the des tlnatlon of ChrlaUan pilgrimages. But these, we thought, belonged only to the romantic paganism of the East or to the seal of early old world Christianity. International Movement. The pilgrimage belongs also, how ever, to this twentieth century of ours, and the most striking example of Its success as a modern Institution Is to found In the annually Increasing throngs of Christian Scientists who Journey to Boston town every June ’rom all parts of the globe. The occa sion of the gathering this year was the dedication of the extension of the Mother Church.” a magnificent 12.- 000,t>4»Q building which has been an nexed to the great church erected some years ago. Mrs. Livingston Mims, who has for many years been to conspicuous and so successful a worker In the cause of Christian Science, and who has gained national prominence as a member of national prominence as a member or the board of lecturer# has Just re turned from Boston, whgre she attend ed the dedicatory services In the new church. MERELY A REMINDER. We do not “protest too much” when we laud our diamonds above all other*. They are proven so, and our patronage Is convinced. DAVIS & FREEMAN, Jewelers. When asked what was the most noticeablo feature of. this year's gather ing, Mr# Mims replied promptly: “The Boston policeman would tell you that It was the wonderful orderliness and courtesy of this vast throng of >0,000 people, and the ease with which the visitors were cared for. But I was most deeply Impressed by the extent of the movement, and by the deeper and broader vision I gained of the part It Is playing In the religious development of the world. Of course thousands of people come from all the states of the Union, but a significant fact was that England, Ireland, France, Germany, Switzerland. India, South Africa, Haw aii, Mexico, Australia and Cuba were Well represented, showing that the movement has become an International one.” But since the new church does not accommodate over live thousand peo ple, many thousands must have been disappointed In not hearing the dedi catory service#' “Not st all. During the day six ser vices were held, thus enabling all to attend. The services were conducted by the same readers without fatigue." 8plendid Architecture. “The church Itself," continued Mrs. Mlm# “as one of the noblest specimens of ecclesiastical architecture, muet be of general Interest. One's first Im pressions upon entering Is of vastness and grandeur, then of cheerfulnee# for splendid stained glass windows pro duce a soft yet radiant light. As con spicuous ss the grace of Re archi tecture Is the beauty of the carving, much of which Is In rich designs of fruit# typifying the harvest time of Christianity In Christian Science. The organ Is superb." Absence of Leader. “Why was not Mrs. Eddy present at the services?" was then asked of Mrs. Mims. ' Because hire. Eddy desires that no human personality shall dominate these services, but that they shall he for the worship of an omnipotent Ood.” Remembering that*Mr# Mlm* has, on more than one occasion, visited Mrs. Eddy at her home near Concord, I asked If she this year had that pleasure. “No," she answered. "However. I waV In Concord, and several times I met Mr# Eddy on her dally drive. She Is one of the most beloved and public- spirited cltlsens of Concord. 'For a woman who has reached what the world considers the advanced world considers the advanced age of St, she Is beautiful, and remarkably well preserved.

Advices from London of very recent date state that thlg has been distinctly an “American” season. At court and all the lesser functions of state and society “Americans" have been unusu al!)* In evidence. This Is largely be cause King Edward has made It known that “Americans” have his ap-, proval, which Is tantamount to dlrect- ng that they be feted. The arrival of the president's daugh ter was probably the cause for this. She met a circle of her own and her father's friends In London, and her ap proval of them gave them a prestige things for which they have had ne previous training. With no tools at hand which a trained workman would require, the dauntless woman some times will undertake the boldest pro jects. As a natural result her work often Is Insecure and bunglesome. Were a little time to be spent during the summer months In studying the re quirements of the home the autumn re arrangement of It would be beautiful tenfold.

Good handbooks of permanent velut ore becoming Increasingly qumerou# A dozen or more volumes contain prac tical principles and omit all mere fads and succinctly Inform Inquirers'along lines of permanent value. Such books seldom come under gen eral reviewing, but some Idea of them may be had by writing for a reliable list from any large metropolitan book seller.

Elaborate clothes, closets are built to accommodate twentieth century fin ery. At one side there are broad, shal low drawers coming almost waist high and tong enough.to hold a dress skirt without folding^ Above them la s shelved press closed by doors and di vided Into square or oblong compart ments. These are for hat# bonnet* and waists too frail to bear their own weight. One end Is cut up Into'tiny cabinets, each Just big enough to hold a pair of ahoes lightly stuffed with tie-' sue paper. Such a closet takes up about one side of a dressing room. Over against It la a press full of drawers and shelves for all manner of dainty underwear. Elab orate tea gowns and extra crushable skirts are swung to the celling upon easily loosened pulleys working over hooks. In closets of this sort almost every line frock has Its own special winding sheet of muslin, soft and line. For hanging aklrta the winding sheet or, rather bag, la bell shaped, so as- to cling without crushing. Even In the simplest sort of closet, one that Is no more than a curtala swung from a broad board overhead, the careful methods of elaborate homes are well worth while. Any skirt wean better If It Is hung so as not to drag. The plainest bodice Is. worth a wlr* hanger. Old sheets may save the one beat gown fresh and dainty throughout a season’s wear. And Instead of ths cabinet presses one may set hats and bonnsts In wooden boxes, neatly pa pered, and piled one on another at one end of the curtained space. TOCCOA. Mr*.
