Christian Science.

Room No. /, in Brown Block, was COM
pletely filled last evening with an audience,
consisting for the most part of ladies, to
listen to an address by Mrs. Diaz of Boston,
upon the subject of Christian Science. The
lecturer commenced by saying that she was
still pupil and did not consider herself in
any way a leader in the movement nor pro-
fessional healer. W
She spoke of her former unbelief in relig-
ion in general, and how the old idea of a
personal God somewhere in the Heavens
had been inconceivable to, and consequently
rejected by her.
Then she was attracted by the healing of
some of the Christian scientists and began
its study. The tenents of her belief are
somewhat in this line. We are made of life
and strength and salvation. God is force
and everything is a manifestation of this
force. Nothing but force really exists.
Matter, or what we call matter, is merely a
manifestation of force. This force with
which love and truth and intelligence are
synonymous, is omnipresent 1t is life it.
self No evil exists. whatever is is good.
The spiritual is the only real and we must,
if we would make the most OF life, come into
this highest and spiritual truth.
In speaking of the non-existence of matter,
Mrs. Diaz said that if the forces of cohesion
and adhesion which held rock together
could become annihilated the rock would
not exist.
Love and truth and intelligence are the
fundamental principles of Christian Science.
We are all one; and thus it is that there can
be mental transfer and consequently a
curing of disease without the use OF medi-
cine, by the changing aud purifying OF the
fundamental force.
At the conclusion of the address Rev.
Henry Blanchard. who was present, said
that he fully and heartily agreed with nine
teen twentieths of what Mrs. Diaz had said,
but if he understood that the scientists de-
MED the existence of evil he must take ex-
ception.
Mrs. Diaz replied that evil was simply a
falling short of good, an absence of right
as the dsrkness is not real thing but Is
| simply the absence of light.
| The lecture was listened to with interest
