understanding; it starts with the per-
lection of being as the right stand

measurably in the true basis of
health, and they gain through relig-
ious conviction all this, which they
have never been able to attain
through any other teaching that they
have ever known. Why? Because
instead of relying upon belief, they
| understand an absolute Principle by
which they can test thought and ac-
