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. M.

Improvement (lob Rrjnlees Over
Promised Extension of Street
Railway.
The Grand View Improvement club held a
regular meeting at Lincoln hall. Sixth and
Pierce streets, last night, that was T-bn-duclve
to much good feeling and self con
gratulation on the part of the members, a
good share of whom were present. For a
year and more the club has labored un
ceasingly and with but little encouragement
or prospect of success for a number of
things of Importance to the welfare and
prosperity of the First ward. The chlcfest
of these has been the endeavor to have the
street car line extended on Sixth street
from Tierce lo Bancroft. A total of more
than 5,000 people, It la claimed, would be
benefited and accommodated by this work,
and now the members of the club have
reason to believe their hopes are to be
readied. Councilman r.ack. as the chair
man of a committee recently appointed to
confer with the street railway people, an
nounced last night that the latter had un
equivocally promised at a conference with
the committee that the line would be laid
within a very few weeks and the service
extended over It at Its completion. Th
new lino will be about fifteen blocks In

that part of the town, give an added Im
petus to the Interest In Rlvervlcw park.
E. J. Cornish of the park commission was
present at last night's meeting and as
sured the assembly that a large pavilion or
several small ones, as tte club might elect,
would be built this spring, plans, he said, j
for a building 40x00 feet had been submitted
to the board, but this, In his mind, is not
as desirable as several buildings after the
"pagoda" style, owing to the extent of the
park. He thought that at least $8,000 would
be put Into the work asldo from the ordi
nary expenses and improvements. Mr. Cor
nish also announced that the board had
12,A0O to be devoted to the finishing of the
boulevard from William street to the park.
Ills remarks were greeted with much ap
plause and t his suggestion a committee
of five was appointed to confer with the

ences of the club with regard to the
pavilion matter.

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.' "
