Its Revelation to Orthodox Church
What we have written must make 1t
apparent to our readers that CHRISTIAN
Science does not supplant primitive
Christianity, but restores it. IL does
not interfere nor conflict with the
Christianity of the churches, but rem
ders it more practical. 1t does not
supersede the Bible. but gives a new
Interpretation thereof. The adherents
of this faith pray to the GOD of our
fathers" the "God Of Isaac and OF ia
cob" the God of the Orthodox
church" But they pray under the
light of Christian Science.

coverer of this Science, credits much

TO the orthodox church. of which she
was a member from early childhood.
Her marvellous wisdom, the goodness
and spirituality which made her fit to
perceive the exalted teaching of Chris
tan science was acquired while prac-
ticing the professions of that church.
On this subject we quote from her June,
1901, message to the Mother Church of
this denomination: Among the list of
blessings infinite 1 count these dear:
Devout orthodox parents; my early
culture in the Congregational Church;
the daily Bible reading and family
prayer; my cradle hymn and the Lords
prayer, repeated at night; my early as
5 ISOLATION with distinguished Christian
clergymen who held fast to whatever
is good, used faithfully Gods word, and
yielded graclously what He took away.
1t was my fair fortune to be often
taught by some grand old divines,
among whom were the Rev. Abraham
Durham of Pembroke, N. H; Rev.
Nathaniel Bouton, d. D., of Concord,
N. H. Congregationalists; Rev. Mr..
Boswell of Bow, N. H, Baptist; Rev.
Enoch Courser and Rev. Corbin Curtis

Christian Scientists accept the Bible
teaching il respect to the atonement,
baptism, Christ and all the essentials
of Christianity, and are ready to de-
fend their ideas of these from a Scrip
tural standpoint.-The Midwestern.

hold to the foregoing premises, we
must regard all which is seen or per-
ceived, physically, as illusion. Spirit
God is infinite, is really Substance and
actually occupies space. Two bodies
cannot occupy the same space at the
same time. Therefore, If Spirit or
Mind, which we term God fills all
space, there is no room for any other
substance and there is nothing BESIDES
the infinite Mind and Its IDEAS All
else which claims place and existence
is false God created all that was
made, and 1t was very good; hence eVll
has no creator, no source, ana, there-
fore, has only a mythical existence.
The appearance of evil is raise
claim which must have a hearing at
the bar of God and be proved nom
entity. One can not be aware OF the
omnipotence of God without realizing
the impotency of sin and disease. II
God becomes to us infinitely great HIS
opposite, evil, must become to us in
Observation-Disclosures small. We can
not believe in the greatness of God
without seeing the littleness of evil.
The prayer of a Christian Scientist
brings one into communion with God,
into a realization of His presence and
power, into the consciousness of man s
real being, and this breaks the power of
sin and disease.
Sin should be defined as the conduct
of mortals induced by wrong sense,
and consequent incorporation OF

We are now opening the Seventh
Home Extension Colony. This is
some of the richest land Of this State
1t ranges IN Price from about Sl2 10
$40 per acre, or an average OF only
$25. These are the Club Members
prices and easy terms, 1t only costs
$40 to join the Homeseekers' Club and
secure all of these advantages.
You can develop your own wells on
this land, for 1t is the flowing ar
tesian belt of the San Joaquin Valley.
Or you have the privilege Of buying a
water right In one OF the great Kern
River canals, with an abundant supply
assured, for only $50 per acre water
right.
The water right alone will grow in
value to worth from $50 to 500 an
acre during the next few years, and it
is possible to sell it from your land
and develop your own water after 1t
has gone up.
Both your land and your water in
this particular colony will enormously
enhance in value.
The Home Extension Association
asserts deliberately that the land is
equal in character to the finest sandy
loan sediment soils of California.
These Seventh Home Extension
lands have been publicly and fully in
dorsed by the Board Of Trade of Kern
county, California.
These lands Of the Seventh Home
Extension Colony have been publicly
and fully Endorsed by Congressman
Samuel c. Smith of Bakersfield. who
represents all of Southern California
in Congress at Washington except Los
Angeles county.
These lands have been exported
and reported upon by Professor D. T.
Fowler, of our Advisory Board, and
are open for your inspection and &C.
| cupation, with our money back guar
antee. which covers every feature as
to the sufficiency of the water right,
the value of the lands and the desir-
ability Of the climate.
If all of these features were not ex'
actly correct this organization could
not offer the broad and sweeping sup
port of its guarantee to you.
FIRST ALLOTMENT NEARLY
CLOSED.
The FIRST allotment of this Seventh
Extension Colony will occur in Home
Extension Hall, Chamber of Commerce
Building, on February 10. You must
inspect and make your arrangements
for this prior to that time. The second
allotment, at higher prices, may occur
in April.

is glorious, how much more glorious is
that which doth remain" If creation
is glorious to us in our present condi-
ton what will 1t be to us when we are
able to see 1t as 1t really is? When
we shall have attained perfection, the
beauty of nature will exceed its pres
ent presentation, as infinitude sur
passes our present degree of compre-
hension. Matter is the belief that the
spiritual universe is material when in
fact it Is spiritual. This belief is not
true, hence we say there is nothing in
it-it matters nothing. In other words,
there is no matter.
Let us summarize in this manner.
God is Spirit or Mind. The result of
mind labor, mind action, mind exercise
the product of minds thought.
Mind thinks its thought. evolves Its
idea. It's creation is therefore ideal,
and, in the language of the Christian
Science textbook Mind and thought
comprise the whole of God and man. :"
We do not look upon darkness as an
entity. 1t is not regarded as some-
thing, but as the want of something,
the want of light. So evil should be
understood as the absence of good, dis
ease the want of health, discord the
lack of harmony.
If we plant ourselves unreservedly
upon the premise that God is Spirit
and the only Cretaor and are faithful
thereto we must hold that His creation
is spiritual-the infinite. expression of
infinite Mind. If we stick to our text,
