REPLY TO CRITICISM.
Christian Science Defended by New
 London Woman.

to the Editor of the Journal Courier;
 In your issve cf February you pub fish an s,ticie copied from the Provi- dence Journal under the caption of Christian Hea,ins." the nature Of which taspeaks foi itself the conden- nation os all fair minded and intelli- gent people.
 The term "mothcreddyite, as em- ployed by this writer Is littl. short of an eplthet. We reiterate that such q term is very objectionable to Christian Scientists, and is not in any sense ap- plicable. The Christian science organ ization is legally organized religious body, and It's followers are entitled to Christian Scientists
 The writer of the article admits the power of mind upon the body but un- dert2kes 10 appreciate and ridicule the teachings of Christian Science on the ground that they are not new. We quite frankly admit that the truth Of tianity is not new. but we do maintain that t, Mrs. E,ddy belongs the credit for having rediscovered Christian healing as taught and practlced by Jesus and his disciples, and thai she alone founded the present method cf divine healirs which many are eniea Y bring to rend from her or to divide the honor with l.cr under the names nf Christian psychology. religions ther- apeutics, mind cure etc.
 The sole reason for not accepting iie undivided garment of Chiistisr n"alirs 2 as taught and practices h Mrs Fi l. and in a measGre demonstrated by r followers. Is that T:'Ith demands of its adherents to cot off fhe riEht hand and "to pluck out tho S'lt aye that is 10 rsnounce na.s.ial vays and means to overcome th- ia Sc p'essure and apretites of thc material senses and to leave all for Christ, Truth.
