much exercised to-day over the claim
by Professor Yoshisaburo OSakura, of
Toxic that the keynote of Mrs. Mary
Baker Eddy's cult was simply trans
planted from Japan. The Japanese
scholar made his claim in a lecture be-
fore the Lowell Institute. He said:
1--WE had in our ancient religions the
fundamentals Of Christian Science, In
the latter part of the eighth century
there was a strong belief current
in Japan that all suffering was ascrib-
able to discord Of the four elements
of nature. and at one time the people
became so superstitious as TO believe
that all physical disease was durable
by purely spiritual means. Thus Chris.
tian Science owes its real beginning:
to Japan"
