IGNORE CONTAGIOUS CASES.
THUS CHRISTIAN SCIENCE HEALERS
ARE ADVISED BY MRS. EDDY.

The Quimby case. at White Plains, is brought
again to public attention by editorial by Mrs
Mary Baker r. Eddy in The Christian Science
Sentinel the organ of the Scientists. Mrs Eddy
advises that until public thought shall become
better acquainted with Christian Science the Chris
uan Scientists shall decline TO doctor infectious
or contagious Diseases.
She says that a year ago. rather than quarrel
over vaccination. she recommended the individual
to submit to the law, and then appeal to the Cos
pei She also advised that contagious diseases
should be reported to the proper authorities
As to the list of thirty-fve failures TO cure by
Christian Science which some pointed out, the
editorial says;
Undoubtedly the list of thirty-fve failures within
six years. recently compiled by critic. is not com
plete, but If there several times that number
the percentage would still be far below the
NAL death under medical practice to ac-
centuate the fact that Christian Science is the more
efhcient. We have heard no whisper OF lndlctng
died OF diptheria in six months in Greater New
York
Mrs Eddy has this say Of contagOn:
cognizance of must be caught through mind. in
asmuch perception. sensation and consciousness
belong TO mind and not to matter. Floating with
the popular of mortal thought without
questioning the reliability of it's conclusions we
do what others do, believe what others believe.
and say what others say. Common consent is con-
tdgious. and it makes disease catching.
People believe in infectious and contagious dis
eases, and that any is liable TO have them
under certain Predsposing exciting causes. This
mental state pre- pareS to have any disease
whenever there appear the circumSt ances which he
believes produce il. If he believed sincerely tina
iheaith Is catching when exposed to contact with
ing quite surely, and with better effect than he
does the sick mans.
