without shadows, to enable
you to look your best. An

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
SERVICE
“Adam and Fallen Man” is the
subject of the Lesson-Sermon
whinch will be read in all churches
of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday,
November 5.
The Golden Text is: "Awake
thou that steepest, and arise from
the dead, and Christ shall give thee
light” (Ephesians 5:14).
Among the citations which com-
prise the Lesson-Sermon is the
following from the Bible: “The
Lord appeared to Abram, and said
unto him, I am the Almighty God;
walk before me, and be thou per-
fect” (Genesis 17: 1).
The Lesson-Sermon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook,
“Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures” bjf Mary Baker
Eddy: “The conceptions of mortal,
erring thought must give way to
the ideal of all that is pefe’et and
eternal. Through many generations
human beliefs will be attaining div-
iner conceptions, and the immortal
and perfect model of God’s crea-
tion will finally be 'seen as the
only true conception of being”
(page 260).

Alibis for an alcoholic breath may take a new twist if melon grow-

He gives his melons any desired alcoholic-flavor by binding a sm^U bottle
of liquor to the stem of the growing plant. The plant absorbs the liquor '
through a tin” *'' ~ in its stalk.
