CHAPTER XII.
Ethel and Brent.
ETHEL dropped her grtze from his
face and said, with the suspicion
of a smile 1 'laying around Ler
"If you had the right to nif;ke lore
to me straitrhtforwardly you wouldn't
do it."
He looked at her iu amazemcnt-
"What do you mean?" he'tn'H ed.
"It's only lieeause you haven't the
riirht that you do it by suggestion."
Hthel pursued.
"How can you say that?" And he
put all the heart he was capable of into
the question.
"You don't deny it." she said quietly.
He breathed hard and then said bit
terly: "What a contemptible opinion you
must have of me!"
"Then we're quits, aren't we'.""
"How?" he asked.
"Haven't you one of me?
"Of you? Why. Ethel"
"Surely every married mnn must
have a contemptible"' opinion of the wo
man he covertly makes love to. If he
hadn't he couldn't do it. could he?"
Once again she leveled her cold, im
passive eyes on 1! rent's flushed fare.
"I don't follow you," was aJ Urent
Eaid.
"Haven't you had time to think of
an answer?"
"1 don't know what you're driving
at." he added.
Ethel smiled her most enigmatical
smile.
"Xo? I think you do." Sdie waited
a moment, l'.rent said nothing. Tliis
was a new mood of Ethel's. It bal'led
him.
l'resontly she relieved the silence by
asking him:
"What happened last night?'
He hesitated. Then he answered:
"I'd rather not say. I'd sound like a
cad blaming a woman."
"Never mind how it sounds. Tell it.
It must have been amusing."
"Amusing:" He bent over her again
"Oh. the more I look at you acd listen
to you the more I realize I should nev
er iiavc married."
"Why did you?" came the cool ques
tion. lirent answered with all the power
nt his command. Hrre was the mo
ment to lay his heart bare th:.t Ethel
iniirht see.
"Have you ever seen a yours hare,
fresh from its kind, run headlong juto
a snare? Have you ever seen a young
rpan free of tbe trammels of college
tLisli into a net? I did: I wasn't trap
wise."
He paced the room restlessly, all the
self pity rising in him. He went on:
"Heavens, what nurslings weare
wle-a we lirst feel our feet: We're
like children just loose from tlie lead
ing strings. Anything that glitters
ca: In s us. Every trap that is set for
our unwary feet we drop into. I did
dropped in. caught hand and foot, mind
and snul."
Sour;" queried Ethel, with a note
of doubt.
"Yes.'' he answered.
"I'oift you mean body?" sue sug
gested. ' Itody. mind and soul'" he said, with
an air of finality.
"Well, boclj- anyway," summed tip
Ethel.
"And for what?" he went on. "For
whnt. Love: Companionship! That
i what we build on in marriage. And
what did I realize? Hate and wran
gli!ii.r; wraugiing. just as the common
herd, with no advantages, wrangle
and make it a part of their lives, the
zest to their union. It's been my curse."
"Why wrangling?" drawled Ethel.
"She didn't understand."
"You?" asked Ethel, ia Furpr.se.
"My thoughts, my actions!"
"How curious:"
"You mean you would?"
"I'robab'y."
"I'm sure of it." lie tried to take
her hand. She drew it away u:ul et
tled herself comfortably to listen again:
"Tell me more al.t i:t Jour wife."
"The slightest attention shown to
any other woman wtji.t a ridiculous,
a humiliating seene."
"Humiliating?"'
"Aren't doubt and suspicion liumil
iating?" "They would be a compliment in
some cases."
"How?"
"They would put a fictitious value n
some men."
"You couldn't humiliate in tbt.t way,"
ho ventured slowly.
"Xo. I don't think 1 could. If u man
f-howed a preference for any other
woman she would be quite welcome to 1
him."
"No man could"" said Erect insin
uatingly. She looked at him coldly a moment.
"Let me see where were you? Just'
married, weren't you? Go en" I
"Then came the ha by." He said;
that -with a significant "tnean'iig andj
paused to see the tZa':tQik Et-heh. - If.
it had any Ethel effectually concealed
it. Her only comment was:
"Ah!" '
I'.reut.weut. en ,
"One ,woId think Chat would change
things. Iht no. Neither of us want
ed her. Neither of us loves her. Chi!
dren should come of love, not hate.
And she Is a child of hate." lie paused,
looking intently at Ethel. She looked
iinderspaiidinsly at him, then dropped
her eyes.
Erent went on as if following up an
advantage: "She sits in her little chair,
her small, wrinkled, old. disillusioned
face turned to us. with the eyes watch
ing us accusingly. She submits to ca
resses as though they were distasteful,
as if she knew they were- lies. At
times she pushes the Hearing face away
with her little baby lingers." He stoi
ped. watching her eagerly. Her eyes
went down.
"I shouldn't tell you this. It's ter
rible. I see it in your face. What are
you thinking?"
"I'm sorry," replied Ethel simply.
' Tor iae?"
"For your wife."
"My wife?" he repented, aghast.
"Yes," said Ethel. "Aren't you? No?
Are you just sorry for yourself?"
Erent turned impatiently away. So
this laying open the wound in his life
was nothing to Ethel. Instead of pity
for him. all it engendered in her war
sorrow for his wife.
How little women understood him!
There was a pathetic catch in his
voice .as he turned to Ethel and said
reproachful'y:
"You think me purely selfisli?"
"Naturally," she answered quickly.
"I am. Why not be truthful about our
selves sometimes? Eh?"
"We quarreled last night about
you!" he said desperately.
"Eeaily?"
"Gossip has linked us together. My
wife has ifeard it and put the worrt
construction on it."
"Well?"
"We said things to each other lie:

ruptly away to the windows and
stayed a moment, looking down the
drive.
Ethel said nothing.
He came back to her in a few mo
ments. "1 tell you we ought to be taught
we ought to be taught, when we are
young, what marriage really means,
just as we are taught not to steal, nor
lie, nor sin. In marriage we do all
three when rve're ill mated. We steal
affection trom some one else, we lie in
o';r lives, and we sin in our relation
ship." Ethel asked him very quietly:
"Io you mean that you are a sinner,
a thief and a liar?"
Erent looked at her in horror.
"Oh. take some of the blame!" said
Ethel. "Don't put it all on the wo
man." "Y'ou've never spoken to me like thi3
before."
"I've often wanted to," replied Ethel;
then the asked him, "What do you in
tend doing?"
".Separate." he answered eagerly.
"You don't doctor u poisoned limb
when your life depends on it; you cut
it off. When two lives generate a
deadly -poison, face the problem as a
surgeon wouJd amputate."
"And after the operation what
thep ?" asked Ethel.
"That is why I am here facing you.
Do you understand what I mean?"
"Oh, dear, yes perfectly! 1 have
been waiting for you to get to the
point."
"Ethel:" and he impulsively stretch
ed out his arms, embracing her.
She drew back slightly, just out of
his reach.
"Walt." She looked up at him quiz
zically. "SupiKjse we generate poison?
What would you do amputate me?"
"You are different from all other
women."
"Didn't you tell your wife that
when you asked her to marry you?"
He turned away impatiently. "Don't
say those things. Ethel; they hurt."
"I'm afraid. Christian. I'm too frank.
Am 1 not?"
"You stand alone. Ethel. Y'ou seem
to look into the hearts of people and
know why and how they beat."
"I do sometimes. It's an awkward
faculty."
He looked at her glowingly. "How
marvelously different two women can
be. You my wife!"
Ethel shook her head and smiled her
calm, dead smile: "We're not really
very different. Christian. Only some
natures like change. Yours does. And
the new have all the virtues. Why.
I might not last as long as your wife
did."
"Don't say that. We have a com
mon bond understanding."
"Think so?"
"I understand yon."
"I wonder."
"You d me."
"Yes ii;:t is just th difTxuIty."
"I tell you I am at the crossroads.
The finger hoard points the way to me
distinctly."
"Does it?"
"It does." lie leined across to her.
"Would von risk it?"
"What? :?e asked.
"I'll hide nothing. I'll put it all be
fore you the snubs of your friends:
the whisper of a scandal that would
grow into a roar: afraid t open a
uewspnper, fearing what might be
printed in it: life at lirst in some lit
tle continental village, dreading the
passers through, keeping out of sight
lest they should recognize one No. It
wouldn t be fair to you.'
Ethel thought u moment, then an
swered slowly:
"No, Chris. I don"t think it would."
"You see I am a cad just a selfisii
cad:"
"Aren't you?" and she smiled up at
him.
"I'll never speak of this again. I
would have sjioken now only I'm dis-tr.K-;ed
completely distracted. Will you
forgive nie for speaking as 1 did?"
"Certainly." said Ethel. "I'm not
offended. n the coiitrary. Anyway,
I'll think it over and let you know."
"You will, realty T he asked greedily,
grasping' at the straw of a hope. "You
will really think it over?"
"I will, really."
"Anl when she sets me free," he
went on. "we could, we could" He
sud'b:i!y shopped.
She looked eo'!y at him as he hesi
tate 1 and s;'.M. "It is a dilheult lirtle
word at times, isn't it?"
"Would you n:trry me?"" he asked,
with a supreme effort.
"I 1 -over cross n:r bridges n::ti! I
come to tleOM." s.'id Ethel languidly.
"Ai d we're ii'-li a long way from that
one. aren't "?"'
"Then I ai i to wait?"
"Yes; d ." she replied.

New York City,
May 2. New Y'ork
City Temple had
its usual crowded
audience when
Pastor Itnssoll
spoke here tonight.
His sermon, a con
tinuation of his
masterly discourse
of last week, was
based on the text.
"There shall be no
more death, nei-
ther sorrow, nor
crying, neither shtll there be any more
patn.' (Iiev. 21:4.) He said in part:
In our address of last week having,
we believe, fairly stated the facts and
churns of Christian Science and having
pointed out the unreasonableness and
inconsistency of some of its statements,
we now proceed to Inquire whether its
teachings are Scriptural. This is the
question of special interest to i:s. The
others are merely incidental. We hold,
and will endeavor to show, that Chris
thin Science is in conflict with the
Holy Scriptures.
The liible distinctly avers that God
created man perfect in His own like
ness, morally, intellectually. It de
clares that Adam's disobedience wins
sin. punishable, not with eternal tor
ment, but with death. Romans o:12:
0:2".; 1 Corinthians 15:21. 22; Genesis
2:17; 3:17-10; Exekiel 1S:4. 20.
Christian Science denies these facts,
declaring that there is no death and
that whoever dies merely commits
"mortal error." It is surely against
Christian Science, but conlirmatory of
the liible teaching, that for more than
six thousand y?ars mankind have been
dying. Even "Mother Eddy." who was
expected not to commit "mortal error,"
finally succumbed to it. What answer
can our Christian Science friends make
to this? We know of none, except that
they might claim that the unreasona
bleness of their position is no greater
than the unreasonableness of any of
the other sects and creeds. Logic nev
er seems to be taken iato consideration
in religious matters; the more illogical
a statement, the more commendable
the acceptance of it.
If all disease is error, if death is the
greatest of errors, and if the escaping
of "mortal error" death brings the re
ward of everlasting life, how do our
Christian Science friends expect to get
everlasting life, when at the last mo
ment of their trial they make failure?
For those of theni who are at all logi
cal, this must be another very jorp!ex
ii.g problem. The liible declares that
whoever fails in one int is guilty of
all the Law. (James 2:10.) Surely be
who commits "mortal error" has failed
in attaining the desideratum of Chris-
tian Science more than in all the other
failures of his life in combating all oth
er things: If "mortal error" thus takes
hold at the dying moment, what hope
would there be for such a person as re
spects everUisting life, if only to over
comers will be granted that life and if
none of them overcome, but all suc
cumb to "mortal error"? The corollary
of the argument would be hopeless
death for all mankind. In this conclu
sion the Bible agrees. "The wages of
sin is death"; sin. "mortal error,"
brings death. E.ekiel 1S:4; Genesis
2:17; Romans
What the Scriptures Say.
The Liible logically and beautifully
Ioiuts out God's compassion for our
race and His provision in Christ foi
wur recovery out of this death condition
by a resurrection from the dead. Tin;
liible logically shows that the Divine
sentence of death (not torment) must
be met either by humanity or by a Re
deemer, and informs us that for this
purpose Christ left His Heavenly glory,
that He might redeem Adam and his
race from sin and its death penalty.
So the Apostle writes by inspiration:
"As by a man Adam came death, by
a man also Jesus comes the resur
rection of the dead. For as all in
Adam die, even so all in Christ shall be
made alive." (1 Corinthians 15:21. 22.)
What is this but a declaration that the
sin leading to "mortal error" is atoned
for by Divine favor, to the intent that
all sinners may be rescued from "mor
tal error" from death?
The Bible is so much more reason
able and beautiful that, we believe,
Christian Scientists, seeing its teach
ings with clear vision, will gladly ex
change an inferior for a superior. Why
should they bind themselves too close
ly to "Mother Eddy." who according to
her own theory failed in the highest de
gree, in committing "mortal error"
and hopelessly? Would they not rather
take the older and still better teaching
cf God's Word, and realtre that Jesus'
resurrection from the dead was the Di
vine recognition of His rerfect sacrifice
and a guarantee that His death had
y
necoirrpnsnpa tne Qr??ig7;ra pnrpose or
providing a way for the removal of
"mortal error" death from all?
Those who accept Jesus' death and
resurrection as the satisfaction for sin
provided by God, and who believe the
Bible teaching that the actual resur
rection is to occur after the Second
Advent of Jesus, may by faith speak
of themselves as already risen with
Him. But those who deny that there
is any death must of necessity deny
that Jesus died, and hence would be,
whether intentionally or otherwise, de
nying the Ransom-Price the liodern
f ion-Price given for the sins of the
whole world.
Cannot our Christian Science fiiemls
accept the Redeemer and His work,
and by faith look forward to the Res
titution, which St. Peter declares will
follow our Lord's Second Advent? (Acts
3:10-21.) It will be for all mankind, and
will last a thousand years, dealing
with "every man in his own order"
bringing them back from the tomb and
from all their weaknesses, which are
the blemishes of sin back to the per
fect image and likeness of God. as
originally represented in Father Adam.
Healing the Sick Not a Sin.
Christian Science healers necessarily
aeknowledge that there issickness when
they speak of healing; for how could
tiny one be healed who is not diseased?
We have already conceded that sick
ness, sorrow and pain would not be
projjer for any who are Cod's peo
ple; and that the prevalence of the.se
conditions attests the fact that God is
dealing with th world as criminals
under death sentence. The question
arises. Is not the Church an exception
to the world in this matter? We an
swer that those who believe in Jesus'
redemptive work and who fully conse
crate their lives, are counted as sepa
rate and distinct from the world. (John
17:10.) Nevertheless, to the surprise
of some, it is not the Divine Plan that
those received by God as sons rhould
be released from sickness, imperfec
tion or death.
Take the case of Jesus. "Holy, harm
less, undefiled. separate from sinners."
the Son of God by a full outward at
testation (Matthew C:17; John 1:14).
He was weary. He hungered. He ago
nized In the Garden. He died on the
Cross. Nor were these errors; rather,
they were the very things for which
He came into the world, as He Him
self declared; and without Jesus' suf
fering as our Redeemer. Adam and his
race could never be recovered, accord
ing to the Divine arrangement.
The Church, styled in the Scripture?
"the Bride of Christ," is invited tc
"suffer with Him" and to "be dead
with Him," that she may thus share
with Him in the best resurrection tc
the Divine nature. (2 Timothy 2:11, 12;
2 Peter 1:4.) Therefore the Church
should not expect Divine healing,
which is so much of Restitution and
will belong to the world by and by.
after Messiah's Kingdom shad have
been established. But Restitution is
not the promise to the Church, but a
new nature, the Divine; and that Id
vine nature is obtainable only by par
ticipation with the Redeemer in "the
ufTerings of this present time" and in
"the glory to follow." Romans i: :1S. I!)
Healing In the Early Church.
Neither Jesus nor His Apostles ex
perienced healing nor did any of tht
early Church, so far as the record
shows. Dorcas, who was raised froa.
the dead, and St. Peter's wile's moth
er, who was healed of a fever, are not
to be considered exceptions to this rule.
Nor was this because none of them
were sick. Jesus Himself evidently
was very sick in Gethsemane. and on
the way to the Cross He faintedv St.
Paul mentions Trophimus and how sick
he was: yet there is no suggestion that
the Apostle healed him. St. Paul notes
the fact that St. Timothy had dyspc;
sia; but instead of healing him the
Apostle wrote to him advising a cer
tain diet.
We must not think of these things as
accidental; for they are in full accord
with what is abundantly set forth lu
the Iiibio. The healings were dune ia
exceptional cases, for the purpose ol
convincing the people respecting - the
Church and for the establishment of
the Church. Even Jesus Himself did
not heal all who needed aid. At tht
Pool of Bethesda there were many im
potent folk; but He healed one only.
(John 5:5-0.) He informed us that His
work was merely a sample of what
Restitution w ill be in .due lime, when
Messiah's Kingdom shall prevail world
wide: "These things did Jesus, and
manifested beforehand His coming
glory" His Kingdom work at His Sec
ond Advent, when He will lie the great
Healer, the great Life-Giver, for all ol
Adam's race. John 2:11.
Some one may inquire. Pastor Rus
sell, have you forgotten Mark 10:17,
These signs shall follow them
is?
that
cast
uew
believe: In My name shall they
out devils; they shall speak with
tongues; thov shall take up ser
pents; and if they drink any deadly
thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall
lay hands on the sick, and they shall
recover."
No; we do not forget that these
words are accredited to Jesus and St.
Mark; but all scholars know, or should
know, that these words do not appear
in any Greek manuscript of earlier
date than the Seventh Century"- B"
nides, we doubt whether all Christian
Scientists claim to le healers, or wheth
er even the healers would handle ser
Ients or drink poisons, such as prussie
acid. This is not nigher Criticism. I
am not a Higher Critic. It is the sim
plest form of criticism to reject frauds
and impositions when we have proof
thai they are such, as iu this case. We
are glad to acknowledge, however, that
the number of such fraudulent addi
tions xo Gcd's Word is comparatively
mail. John 21 '5 is another cf the-e:
and it absurdity h manifest.

1
I Anorner important iraud is iouna in
I 1 John 5:7, 8, where unscrupulous men
i sought to establish the false doctrine
i of the Trinity; for not one text of
Scripture could be found to its support
Here they have added twenty-four
words to the text, which in the oidest
MSS. reads. "For there are three that
bear record, the Spirit, and the water,
and the blood: and these three agree ia
one record." As usual, ail these
spurious additions involve absurdities.
In this text the absurdity would be to
have Father, Sou and Holy Spirit all
bearing witness jn Heaven to the an
gels that Jesus is God's Sou. as though
the angels would not know that fact!
The God of the Bible.
Christian Scientists declare that the
ten most potent words ewer written
were penned when Mrs. Eddy wrote
the first ten words of her "Scientific
Statement of Being" "There is no life,
truth, intelligence, nor substance iu
matter." How does this agree with
their teaching that God is everywhere
and in everything
It further declares that God is a
Principle, yet discusses Him as a per
sonality, quoting. "God is of purer eyes
than to behold iniquity." (Ilabakkuk
3:1".) On the strength of this misap
plied text Christian Scientists build
the theory that God is ignorant of ev
erything impure or injurious; that to
Him and to them su-h things are not
realities. Nevertheless, the context
contradicts all their theories by declar
ing. "Wherefore lookest Thou upon
them that deal. treacherously, and bold
est Thy tongue when the wicked de
voureth the man that is more righteous
than he?" II a b. 1:13; see also V. 3.
Christian Science is in conl'ict with
the Bible along another very important
line. According to Christian S'-ience,
"God U u divine Principle, supreme
incorporeal Being, Mind. Spirit. Soul.
Life, Truth. Love. These are synony
mous terms. They refer to one abs'
lute God. and nothing else. The attri
butes of God are justice, mercy, wis
dom, goodness, and so on. Principle
is divine, one Life, one Truth, one
Love, and this is God. omniMtent. om
niscient and omnipresent." "Soul,
or Spirit, signifies Deity, and nothing
else. There is no finite soul, or spirit."
But the God of the Bible is a Per
son, a Spirit. Jesus said, "God is a
Spirit: and they that worship Him
must worship Him in spirit and in
truth." (John 4:21.) God is a Person,
or Soul: "If any man draw back. My
Soul shall have 110 pleasure in him."
(Hebrews 1:3; 10:3S.) He is "the God
of all grace, the Father of mercies."
"from whom conieih every good and
perfect gift." (2 Corinthians 1 :3; James
1:17.) All these expressions tell us of
personality, as do those Scriptures
which declare His Justice, Y"isdom.
Power and Love. These qualities arc
not properly attributable to a good
principle; for principles of right and
wrong Lave no personality.
Man was made an earthly image of
his Creator, who is a Spirit Man was
made "a little lower than the angels"
(Hebrews 'J:'.); I'salm .S:5j; for although
the angels Lave God's likeness also,
they have it on the spirit piano. The
liken os is nt necessarily one of form,
but of character a;:.l of organism tc
the e:;?ont that man can reason with
God and appreciate God's revelations
respecting moral and religious things.
Of her animals, not in God's im:ige,
cannot reason on those subjects and
cannot be appealed to as man can. To
humanity God says. "Come now, let us
reason together." Isaiah 1:1S.
A personal God must have a place of
pirttciur. as suggested in Jesus' prayer.
"Our Fathr. which art in Heaven."
For God to be cvcriiti lu re, as Christian
Scientists and others assert, woiiid
make Ilim impersonal a Principle.
Tins wrong thought is held by many
who. contrary to the Bible, declare that
God is oiuniiitcscitt, everywhere present.
While God is not omnipresent, every
where present. He is omniscient; that
is. He has knowledge of everything
and of every place; as it is written.
"The eyes of the Lord are in every
place, beholding the evil and the good.
(Proverbs 15:3.) We know that there
are both evil and good to behold; and
that the eyes of the Lord represent
His intelligence, taking cognizance of
everything everywhere. Since the in
vention of the telephone and the
wireless, we may much belter than
ever before understand how God can
have fullest knowledge of everything
throughout the Universe, just as man
can receive information in an Instant
from the remotest parts of the earth.
What man can do under Divine guid
ance and enlightenment is, we may be
sure, as nothing in comparison with
what his Creator can do with that Cre
ator's iower and knowledge.
In conclusion, we urge upon Chris
tian Scientists, as upon all professing
the name of Christ, the importance of
coming into relationship with Jesus by
faith: First, faith in Ilim as the Re
deemer the One through whom alone
there is provision for escape from sin.
sorrow, sickness, death; secondly, be
lief iu Ilim as the great King whose
Reign is to accomplish the work of
overthrowing sin: thirdly, belief Iu the
testimony of Jesus and the Apostles
that He is gathering out a Church to
Ie His Bride, or Associate, hi His glo
rious Messianic work of a th uisand
years yea. arid to lc His Couqwinion
in glory to all eternity. Ephcsians 2:7.
Let us become, through Christ,
through consecration. through Spirit-
begetting, the children of God. that we
may properly call Him our Father and
properly expect and receive His paren
tal care over all our nffnirs. temporal
and spiritual. Let us remember that
the glory, honor, immortality and Di
vine nature, promised to the elect
faints, are to be attained only by tho.-e
tfo shall demonstrate their love and
loyalty to God by faithfulness in His
service .even unto death, as did our
Lord Jesas Christ. r
