Edinburgh (Scot.) Dispatch.

We believe that most fair-minded people, on reading the account of the coroner's inquest at Urmston as given in a recent Dispatch, will regret the language used by the coroner and jurymen. Not long ago Sir Victor Horsley admitted, in court, that if there were an inquest on every patient who died subsequent to an operation, there would be no less than ten thousand of such inquests every year in London alone. In the face of such an admission, can it be regarded as a piece of amazing folly that a man should decline to undergo an operation?

England and Scotland each support an established church. These churches in theory unreservedly accept the Gospel narrative as true, and regard Jesus Christ as the second person of the trinity, in other words, as God. Seen in this light, the commands of the Saviour are actually the commands of God, and yet a man is severely reprimanded for endeavoring to obey them! For let it be pointed out that he was abused not for the lack of success of his prayer, but for thinking that prayer could avail. In spite of the occasional failures of Christian Science practitioners, we are convinced from personal experience that Christian Science is the most efficacious system of healing known on earth today, and signs are not wanting that the public is awaking to this fact.
