By EDWARD E. NORWOOD,

In complying with the request of
The Washington Times to give an arti-
Gle on the rise and growth of the
Christian Science movement, and its
leader, Mrs. Eddy, one is embarrassed
by the wealth of material at hand
The wonderful work she has done in
founding and establishing the cause,
its unprecedented growth. the far
reaching reforms it has accomplished.
with the unique personality of its
leader. who has been in the public eye
for more than forty years. all furnish
much to be written about. But Mrs.
Eddy lays but small stress upon ma
terial history and the records Of the
human intellect and it's performances.
In her biographical sketch, called
'Retrospection and Introspection,"
she says:
Our material history is only the
record OF dreams. not of mans real
existence, and the dream has no place
in the Science of Being. 1t is a tale
that is told and as the shadow when
1t declineth. The heavenly intent of
earth's shadows is 20 chasten the
affections, to rebuke human conscious
ness and turn it gladly from ma
terial, false sense Of life and happi-
ness to spiritual joy and the true esti-
mate OF Being"

4 Literary Woman.

The salient facts about Mrs. Eddy
and her work can be simply stated.
She was born in Bow. n. H.. July Is.
1921, Of sanity, devout New England
parentage- She was well educated In
her youth, at an early age displaying
exceptional literary capabilities. con
tributing to the press more or less
continuously, in spite of ill-health: and
her literary ability was known and
recognized long before her discovery
Of Christian Science. She was en-
dowed spiritually in wonderful de-
gree, the whole trend OF her life be-
Ing marked by an unquenchable long
Ing to know more OF God and express
His will to follow Him IN all things.
As a result Of this search. she made
her discovery Of Christian Science. and
since then her activity has been prin-
cipalIy directed toward the promulga-
ton and preservation Of. Christian
Science. In the course Of this labor
She has written many books, all of
which have illumined the Scriptures
in a remarkable degree to a vast null
titude Of earnest men and women.
The chief work, Science and Health
With Key to the Scriptures" has gone
through over $50 editions Of 1000 each.
and its sale is rapidly Increasing. The
demand is really greater than the sup
ply at times. 1t can be found at
every public library in the country.
and is nearly always a leader among.
the well-read books. To show its popu-
larity, the writer is chairman or a
committee Of distribution OF Christian
Science literature. This committee has.
during the last few years, presented
the City Library Of Washington with
twenty-five copies Of Science and
Health" Within a week he is in re-

ing from six to ten more copies can be
used, showing the great demand for 1t.
