ABOUT CHRISTIAN SCIENCE Why It, Doe Not Advertise It Cares to the Waiting and Suffer v In World. The Bee is asked to print the following from the Christian Solence Sentinel, to explain why the Scientists do not advertise: . We sometimes receive inquiries as to the Standing of persons who advertise them selves In newspapers and magazines as Christian Science practitioners. We answer these Inquiries by say In that Christian Scientists do not advertise, and It Is safe to assume that the persons who thus bring themselvea to the attention of the public are not In any manner Identified wttn our denomination nor with Its healing work. The following reference to the methods em ployed by unauthorised persons who pons aa Christian Scientists fs copied from a previous issue of the Sentinel: . "It la unnecessary fur us to Bay that methods of advertising akin to those of quack doctors and vendors of patent nos trums are not countenanced by Christian Sclontlsta. On the contrary, they are re prehended. "Christian Scientists have done all they properly can do in the way of advertising when they unobtrusively make known the fact that they hold themselves In readinesH to respond to calls for healing sickness or otherwise aiding those who desire such services as come within thnir province or line of duty." The above la as true today aa when It was written, and correctly sets forth the attitude of Christian Scientists as being one of willingness and readiness to help those who desire their ministrations, rather than that of soliciting the attention and patronage of persons who may be attracted by a skilfully worded advertisement. Christian Sclenoe healing is not a thing of barter and sale; It Is a holy ministry Into which greed, selfishness and self-seeking cannot enter. The commercialism that bids for patronage and dollars is inconsist ent with the true sense of Christ healing and must ultimately prove to be a delusion to both practitioner and patient. Christian Scientists know that those who would avail themselves of the healing power of tlila science must turn to It naturally and with out undue Influence. It may be urged that unless Christian Scientists advertise the publio will not know how nor where to find a practitioner, but this will not suffice as an excuse for adopting methods not In keeping With the proper reserve and dignity which bents th high calling of our ministry. Those who are ready for Christian Science will experi ence no difficulty In finding help and heal ing. There are but few communities In which some beneficiary of Christian Science cannot be found; the churches of the de nomination are many, the free reading rooms maintained by the churches ar easily accessible, and a comprehensive di rectory of practitioners Is published In the official organs of the denomination.

OMAHA REAL ESTATE NOTES One way In which the Omaha Real Es tate exchange could bo of great help to th city, not only Immediately, but perma nently, would be to Induce prospective landlords to put up a better class of houses for rental purposes. It Is not enough that four walls be erected, mcloslng a certain specified number of rooms; a more syste matic and persistent effort should be made to see, that houses are well built and prop erly equipped. It Is a sin sgalnst civilisa tion to erect houses today on the plans of ten years ago, and yet many have been put up In Omaha on Just about that basis. Many so-called modern houses In this city do not deserve that description, even In the widest stretch of professional courtesy. Houses that were modern a dosen years ago are hopelessly In, th rear nowaday, and it is not fair to the large class of th population of the city who rent that they be deprived of the comforts and conveni ences that Invention has made almost necessaries because the older houses hav not been ftttod as a strictly modern house should be. It should bo made obligatory that new houses be equipped with not onty furnaces or other apparatus to heat the en tire building, so that stoves would become unknown In the modern house, but that each should have at least one fireplace, preferably In the sitting room, with other equipment that add but little to the first cost of building and yet conduce greatly to the comfort, of occupancy. This Is a matter that haa not been properly pre sented to the real estate men. or maybe one to which they have not given the proper consiuerauon. it should tret more atten tion to the end that Omaha be made a more comfortable place to live. "Real estate sales during the haye continued good." said Alfred Ken nedy or Howard Kennedy & Son. "W made several sales, among which was ths building located at 1204 Farnom street, wnicn was purchased by the Nebraska Na tional bank, the consideration belnr 11. 000. A cottage on Patrick avenue was also soia ror ll,W.,The above mentioned sales were both cash transactions, which Indi cate, we think, nn lmnroved ponditt nn In Omaha real estate." Omaha real estate dealers are not nnlv doing business in this city, county and state, dui in other states. The Payne In vestment company has a big deal on hand In Wyoming and Mr. J. P. O'Keefe of the nrm lert last night to personally sup.rvls. and close the transaction. In which s. larva amount of money is Involved. On being seen before leaving the city, Mr. O'Keefe stated that the boom In Omaha real estal during the coming spring will likely be one or me largest In the history of the city. "Our sales have been in excess of the previous week and I believe other real estate firms will tell similar stories." Another new firm has Joined the ranks of the real estate dealers, hnlns- known h. Gibson & Howell company, with offices at hi notitn Fourteenth street. All the mem bers of the new firm are old-time residents of the city and the fact that they hav ventured Into the real estate business Is evidence of som big deals being made In the near future. J. S. Olbson, the senior member of the company, has lived In Omaha for the last forty-eight years, dur ing which time he has devoted from ten to nrteen years to the real estate business. The Junior member Is Edward E. Howell, a dealer In coal and Insurance in the city for almost thirty years. He Is widely known and, with the experience he has already had, will be a valuable addition to he ranks of the real estate world. Ex Coupty. Treasurer Fred Elsasser Is known as the company In th firm and with thes three men the personnel of the company Is complete. Mr. Elsasser ha resided In Omaha thirty-seven years and wa county treasurer from 1900 to 1901 The new com pany will do a general real estate and In surance business and a bright future Is be spoken for them for the future by the mem bers of the Real Estate exchange. Ernest Sweet says: "Th active business In homes and residence sltoa, as well a smaller Investments, would inHieot. .. sound Judgment of the recent heavy pur- cnases, since there must be prosperity and a future for Omaha In the opinion of the outside Investors. Omaha today Is being carefully compared with other larg citle from an Investment point of view and not found wanting." C. F. Harrison of th firm of Harrison A Morton say: "There I nothing that shows the ton of th real estate market any bet ter than the demand for acres by persona who do not Intend to Improve them. Such a purchase Is strictly a speculation. Th man who makes It Is a believer In the fu ture of the town. There is a big call for acreage, perhaps greater than for any one class of property. We have one out-of-town customer who has bought ..V...I thousand dollar' worth of this kind of. property in me laat year. It may be of In terest to hear his reasons for putting Mis money In Omaha acres. H say: 'For everal year I have had oocaslon to vUlt Kansas Clfy frequently. While . there I learned something of real estate values and kept In touch with acreage, and saw th same rapidly advance. I compared values there with those In Omaha and concluded that Omaha acreage was too low. I hare bought several pieces In Omaha, and from the Inquiry I have had for them since I bought I Judge I could sell out at a profit. I won't sell. I have bought th property for a long hold and believe the futur of your town will Justify my action.' " Six sterling teaspoons, $3 .10. E5holm.
