i If We know the law, We May de these things for them.
 Some of these changes from disease to health, are so quick and wonderful. i that even those who are expecting much from mental action, are astonsh ed at the results of their thoughts.
 One day there came into my office, q poor crippled girl, who had not been able to walk without iron braces for l 1G years. Knowing the great law of the healing power of thought, and feel l ing a sweet warm sympathy for the poor helpless girl, sent forth the strong word of freedom from the :. bondage under which the poor limbs were held. The waiting body respond 1 ed to my thought. In 24 treatments she was perfectly well and able to be about exactly like other people The blind see when speak the right i word i'll the science,--the deaf hear, the , weak are strong, the lame walk up
  come we'll, the diseased are healed. 1 It is thought. sent forth according to law Ii is thought tutoring the per fectly true idea with respect to the body and it's functions.
 i It has been written ill the sacred books of all the devout thinkers of the past that "Ihe Truth Shall Make Yoa Free What did they mean by free dom? Exemption from evil. What is evil? Sin. sickness, death. AT the evils We know are included under these heads
 Has anything fhat We have ever been taught of law and logic, arts and sc.ence set us free from these evils? Not Why? Because they have not been truth. They have taught us bondage to evil conditions. and not freedom from them.
 One of Boston's ables preachers said. lamentinglY: q think evil is more powerful than good" Why did he think that? Because he was seeing the results of teaching the race errors. and not truth.
 We have always been taught that climate. food, and inherited conditions had control over our limbs, muscles internal organs. and the brain. But i the truth is that not climate food and inheritance. but right or wrong thoughts control them.
 The knowledge of this is usnerln@ in new ways of teaching; and new ways of thinking are changing the people from feebleness and misery to strength and health.
 What the practitioner says to his patient in the silence, is an absolute truth And every heart responds truth right willingly. because it is : freedom from evil.
 As the needle in every compass turns willing toward the north, so tn mind of every child of earth turns to- ward truth when it hears it.
 Perhaps the fact that another mind can be moved to say differently of it's body. from what it has been saving. by the silent speaking of another. is more puzzling to the uninitiated. than i the fact that one can speak to himself and command himself to rise. and walk, CT be perfectly whole.
 This is not however. a perfectly new message to the students of Metaphy- sics, for those who study them find the law of thought transference from mind to mind, taught as a common law, even when We are not aware of our thoughts as going forth for good or ill
 Aristotle knew that any thought would fly from the mind and makee it's impression upon every other mind with which it came in contact. Thus the poor children of earth have been sending thoughts of bondage to each other ' and misery and death. are binding tho world in grim sorrow.
 To those who have learned the set ting-free power of mind thinking truth, and not error, the message has come like light, over the long darkness of their lives.
 To hear that sickness need not hin der their powers any longer, blindness and deafness may not shut them out any longer from the sights and sounds of life. is to hear the Christ word,- is to feel the Christ touch.-is to be glad as though He had come again to help the sorrowful. sinful world. as in the old ways He used to help
