it is attained
 ChristianScientists are those who like the Shepherds of old, have seen this light, and are following where it leads, and would point others to that light, that they may follow also
 Christian Science being independ- ently right, it can stand alone, and Christian Scientists are growing in- to indepe ndence; not what the world calls independence however; for the Christian Scientists independence is absolute dependence upon God They are learning to make practical the first Commandment, Thou shalt have no other Gods before me- They are learning more and more, to depend upon God,-the One, the only Good in sickness and in health, in pain or in pleasure; in times of plenty or in times of want; learning at all times and under all circumstances, to fol- low the Christ through evil report as well as good report
 Christian Scientists, living more and more out in that Principle of in exhaustible plentitude and fullness. learn a certain degree of indepen- dence of material ways and means. and more perfect dependence upon the One Great Cause, whose higher laws of Spirit and Spirituality annul the supposed laws of matter and materiality, and consequently, govern all things in the spiritual as well as in the socalled material world.
 Is Law of Life.
 Christian Science is the Scientific knowledge, or the law of life, reduced to a system and found practical, not only in the physical healing of sick ness and sin and all evil,-but in the destruction of them, from off the face of the earth-that His Kingdom may come, and His Will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. AndChrs- tian Scientists are those, who. to the extent that they understand this great Truth, are practicing it, upon them selves and others, who ask of them the same Gods blessing And hun dreds are being healed every day Of sickness asl well as of sin, and of sin as well as of sickness: and these in their turn, are learning the great Law of Being, and how to apply it in their own case,-and upon those who, m their turn shall come to them.
 The Bible, and Science and Health I with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary l Baker Eddy, are the Text books o1
 Christian Scie nee. This latter named
 book,-Science and Health With Key to the Scriptures, sheds new ani
 spiritual light on the Scriptures,- il-
 lumines Being, and sets thought at
 work in right directiohs And life
 is found not to be-A burden, beset
 with sickness, enshrouded in darkness
 and engulfed by fear; but is foun1
 to be worth the living; for health IS
 found in place of sickness; light ln-
 stead of darkness, and love in place .,sof fear The sinner finds Ithe way of redemption, and he himself, sitting
 at the feet of Christ,-the Truth, Clothed and in his right mind Less than forty years ago thls ,l book, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, was first published T and given to the world When it flrst appeared. critics said, Tt would | never be read.' Today, this book is
 being read more and mere throughout the world: and wherever it is read, < the sick are healed, sinners forsake their sins, and the unrighteous man his thoughts. So that the influence of this book is being felt, and it's beneficial effects experienced, not only by the students of this book but by all who come within the range of their thought. n
 Science and Health with Key to i the Scriptures, casts more light on the Inspired World, and is more highly Scientific work. than any book that ever was written. No other book has ever stated Truth so clear ly, and so unwaveringly and scienti- fically as to rebuke sin and sickness l in all their forms and make them disappear.
 Book Teaches Pure Science
 This book teaches pure Science; it does not teach mere belief. When
 Mrs Eddy discovered ChristianI Science she gave up her former op'n- ions and ideas concerning God and Man. and wrote nothing but the un- [, Holdings of Science, from the basis of the One Divine Principle-God.
 I Christian Science is not another re- igious belief: It is Science: and i Science is something to be under stood and demonstrated, not merely :, believed

 a Mathematician could be called a mere believer in Mathematics. They are students of Christian Science; they are studying to understand
 Christian Science. but not trying to believe it. They soon see that their
 beliefs do not change anything; that
 what is true, Is true whether they be- 'i lieve it or not: but if they would get the benefit of 1t. they must under stand it:-the same in the Science of Being asI in the Science of Numbeh1. I No teacher in Mathematics, after demonstrating a proposition for a pu- pill, ever asks that pupil whether he believes it; he asks him if he under stands it, knowing that h's belief or
 disbelief. will not change the fact. 5 And what is true in the Science of } Numbers in this respect, is emphatic 1. ally true in the Science of Being. Christian Science is not made up {, of mere personal opinions It is the ,, Science of Being; and like the ! Coiopoo of N,,,,horc poyor asks
