This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: AT THE APPETITE-CURE THIS establishment's name is Hochberghaus. It is in Bohemia, a short day's journey from Vienna, and being in the Austrian empire is of course a health resort. The empire is made up of health resorts; it distributes health to the whole world. Its waters are all medicinal. They are bottled and sent throughout the earth; the natives themselves drink beer. This is self-sacrifice, apparentlybut outlanders who have drunk Vienna beer have another idea about it. Particularly the Pilsner which one gets in a small cellar up an obscure back lane in the First Bezirkthe name has escaped me, but the place is easily found: You inquire for the Greek church; and when you get to it, go right along bythe next house is that little beer-mill. It is remote from all traffic and all noise; it is always Sunday there. There are two smallrooms, with low ceilings supported by massive arches; the arches and ceilings are whitewashed, otherwise the rooms would pass for cells in the dungeons of a bastile. The furniture is plain and cheap, there is no ornamentation anywhere; yet it is a heaven for the self-sacrificers, for the beer there is incomparable; there is nothing like it elsewhere in the world. In the first room you will find twelve or fifteen ladies and gentlemen of civilian quality; in the other one a dozen generals and ambassadors. One may live in Vienna many- months and not hear of this place; but having once heard of it and sampled it, the sampler will afterward infest it. However, this is all incidentala mere passing note of gratitude for blessings receivedit has nothing to do with my subject. My subject is health resorts. All unhealthy people ought to domicile themselves in Vienna, and use that as a base, making flights from time to time to the outlying resorts, acc...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg: And Other Stories and Sketches IT was many years ago. Hadleyburg was the most honest and upright town in all the region round about. It had kept that reputation unsmirched during three generations, and was prouder Of it than Of any other of its possessions. It was SO proud Of it, and so anxious to insure its perpetua tion, that it began to teach the principles Of honest dealing to its babies in the cradle, and made the like teachings the staple Of their culture thenceforward through all the years devoted to their education. Also, throughout the formative years temptations were kept out Of the way Of the young people, so that their honesty could have every chance to harden and solidify, and become a part Of their very bone. The neighbouring towns were jealous of this honourable supremacy, and affected to sneer at Hadleyburg's pride in it and call it vanity; but all the same they were obliged to acknowledge that Hadleyburg was in reality an incorruptible town and if pressed they would also acknowledge that the mere fact that a young man hailed from Hadleyburg was all the recommendation he needed when he went forth from his natal town to seek for responsible employment.

Excerpt: ...it is no matter," she said, "I remember the words--indeed, all Christian Scientists know the book by heart; it is necessary in our practice. We should otherwise make mistakes and do harm. She begins thus: 'In the year 1866 I discovered the Science of Metaphysical Healing, and named it Christian Science.' And she says--quite beautifully, I think--'Through Christian Science, religion and medicine are_ inspired with a diviner nature and essence, fresh pinions are given to faith and understanding, and thoughts acquaint themselves intelligently with God.' Her very words." "It is elegant. And it is a fine thought, too--marrying religion to medicine, instead of medicine to the undertaker in the old way; for religion and medicine properly belong together, they being the basis of all spiritual and physical health. What kind of medicine do you give for the ordinary diseases, such as--" "We never give medicine in any circumstances whatever! We----" "But, madam, it says--" "I don't care what it says, and I don't wish to talk about it." ' "I am sorry if I have offended, but you see the mention seemed in some way inconsistent, and--" "There are no inconsistencies in Christian Science. The thing is impossible, for the Science is absolute. It cannot be otherwise, since it proceeds directly from the All.in-all and the Everything-in-Which, also Soul, Bones, Truth, one of a series, alone and without equal. It is Mathematics purified from material dross and made spiritual." "I can see that, but--" "It rests upon the immovable basis of an Apodictical Principle." The word flattened itself against my mind in...
