Eddy's discovery, an ever-widening-circle haa been covered by Christian Sclera, and an ever increasinghost of its adherents, men and -women, are daily hearing- witness to Its healing- sjd saving- power, and rendering their tribute of praise snd thanksgiving- to Its revered Discoverer and Founder. There is. however, nothing of worship or deification in the attitude- cf Christian Sclens to

Mrs. Eddy never tho-ught of becoming a great religious teacher or leader, r.r. y.;t no other of th-i world's sri;t lenders ever lived to sea such a substantial and extens ve growth and orKanizalion ---,:'.! ;-om nls own teaching. Sucii results, however, are to be expected always when work is d ) Art was Mrs. Eddy's v.'or',:. Tho presence of God wj. not a mere theoty to her but an actual fact on winch f-he relied in establishing the Christioan Sciei.ce movement as well as in al! other things. Early In the practical operation of Christian Science, Mrs. Eddy saw that the then existing churches were not ready for Christian Science. Accordingly she established the Christian Science Church. The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston. Massachusetts. From time to time as occasion demanded, and as site was divinely 1-d, she wrote the By-laws now comprising the Manual of tho Mother Church for the government of tiie Mother Church members and for the organization or branch churches and societies and the government of their memhern. That

not at first be considered scientific or beneficial, jet the actual experience of any one who will test tt according to th principle and rule ot Christian Science will prove that It ia both Scientific and beneficial. 1 But, ays a friend, ""Why try to say I am not and can not be sick -when I know 1 have this pain?" No one can be found who will have more loving consideration for those suffer

ing from disease ana pain than a I Christian Scientist. Christian Sclenrs

Is not an admonition to bear suffering patiently nor to endure it stoically, hut is. on the contrary. ,a scientific ysem by which dlseas and suffering are to be overcome. It shows any person who will earnestly study and practice it that, the evidence of the' human senses ; all there is to any suffering, and if this evidence be chang ed or overcome, the disease and suffering disappear. H3-e you ever observed ho the physical senses are so easily and commanly deceived? There Is not a day. nor perhaps an hour, but what we axe the victims of some false testimony of the sense.- The school boy crosses the first two f.r.gers of his hard, closer his eye, and has his crossed fingers rubbed over a marble and tiie. sense of touch will Indicate to him two or three marbles instead of one. Stand tn the car track and follow the rail with the eye and the sense or sight will tell you that presently the rails com.ei together, but it isn't true. Or, sit in tiie railroad train that is standing and look out of the window at a moving train on an adjacent track and every sense tells you that you and your train are moving and practically your only seape. from this delusion ia to look away from the moving train and see tilings tin they really

heaJed of any sl'-kness and whatever j his problem, it will be solved. In many Christian Science meet-j

i ingti at the regular church serv.cros, 1

and at lectures men and women do!

come to a realization and understanding that this power of God is present in their lives and they are healed. M A X This brings me to a discussion of whLt man is, and of his relation to GoJ. In the book of Genesis, are found two distinct and dissimilar accounts of man's creation. tin til I studied the subject of Christian Science I never saw the distinction between thee two accounts of creation, yet they are quit unlike. In the first chapter of Genesis, the record runs, "So God created man in His own image, ;n the image of God,

! created He htm, male and female, crea

ted Hn them .' Christian Science teach es that this is tbe correct account (r man's creation. It sets forth tho spirit ual man. tVhen Christian Science sajs that man cannot be sick, r.or suffer, nor sin, nor die, reference Is ma le to this- real man. thi.- God created, this spiritual man; or. to use a scientific term, this el .d-idea. Christian Science tcHe.Vs that creation is not the. molding of forms ott of matter, bit is the unfolding of spiri-ual idess. that rr.-r and women

ability to overcome

" tiift enemy?

MORTAL MINT' What is the enemy over wh.e'a .ieu ssys we have power? Paul says; "To ; he carnal!;- minded Is death, hut to : be spiritually minded is life, and peace. ' because the carnal mind is enmity against God." The enemy, is. there- ' fore, the carnal or fleshly mind, or as; Mrs. Eddy calls it in Science and I Health, the 'morra! rr.lnd.' as opposed i

Other systems of religious instruction have likewise taught tiie perfection of spiritual man. but they have not made tehir teaching practical.

TeNKEAEITY OF EVIH Thfs brings me to a discussion

of

the tmreelity of evil, for which teaching Christian Science has sometimes

should not be a vsgue or far off. uncertain thing, but a living, throbbing vital presence on which man may and should rely in all circumstances, and under all conditions. This will be p. woi.derf il xrn'lij when mere men and women realise the'r Ood-given heritage and poW''sslon. There will he less envying, hating, Judging, killing and mom vf what Paul calls "the fruit f the spirit." love, joy, -peace, oln g-aufTeri ng, gentleness, goodness, for man is the reflection of God' goodness, of God's ov ineed of all the qualities cf God, and it is only in the perfect reflection that rind Is exrres-sed In tho world.

Then you ask. where did evil originate? Someone may say it. started with Satan, or devil, but surely God In Hijt infinite goodness oou'd never have conceiverl or created a monster of evil.
