The usually busy city of Kearney, Nebraska, has been more or less disturbed, during the last six months, over the advent of two young Christian Scientists, graduates from Mrs. Fenn's Metaphysical Institute, located in Omaha.
Mr. and Mrs. Bunnell went there last October; but so quiet and unassuming were they in their deportment, that for some time only a very few knew of their presence. The city might have remained in blissful ignorance of their mission, but for the fact that a number of supposed incurables suddenly received help from these young folks, through Christian Science.
This unexpected knowledge, coming to the ears of the medical fraternity, caused them to take off their goggles and give them a fresh rub with their clean bandannas, and take a look at them,—very much as eagles look at mice, from some lofty altitude. All went well until it became alarmingly apparent that the cries of humbug, fraud, hoax, only advertised the work, and something more than words must be used.
