shows us that a right understanding
 of God is essential to every student
 in the school of life as an understand | ing of numbers is to the student of mathematics.
 Every right concept of God as in-
 finite good must include His omnipO- i tence, His omnipresence, His omni-
 science. Finite man cannot compre- ! hend these divine qualities in their ! fullness, but it is a noteworthy fact
 that in the proportion that you do re-
 alize them, in that proportion do you find good coming into your life and evil leaving it. You do not need to
 know all of God that is to be known,
 before you get any of the good that comes from using even little of such knowledge.
 As you thus learn to know God
 alright, you will discover that any evil thing which may come upon you
 has not the power to harm you that
 you once believed it had You will no longer dread what men may say or do to you. You will no longer fear things present or things to come You will learn to succeed in spite of fail ure, to be strong in spite of weakness, to be steadfast in spite of the storm. Sickness, sin, want, failure, and the like lose their hold upon you, they cannot disable. disturb or depress you, or master you, or deprive you of your God-given rights. nor can they separate you from the love of God, omnipotent good.
 Tn the proportion you realize that God is omniscience, that He knows the eternal truth about all that really exists, even to knowing you far bet ter than you know yourself knowing you and seeing you as He made you in His own image and likeness. re- fiecting every quality of good-when yOu discover this about yourself, and see that evil is not a part of you, does not belong to you, and cannot control you unless you submit to it, then you LtSilI gbuEStll lO get IlC Ol u DN EG- ducing it to its native nothingness. As you learn to know more about God your thought dwells less upon your self and your own affairs, an dyou lose much of that injurious habit of self-rninking that shows itself in such things as sensitiveness, self-pity, self self-justification, and self-condemnation, which is quite as bad. For, my friends, man does not need to be condemned. not even by himself; he needs to be saved.
 Tn the old way of thinking we used to hear much about man being the creature of circumstance. Christian Science is reversing this belief of linn itation and is proving that man, if he will, may be the master of circum- stance, not its victim. There is short sentence in our textbook bear ing on this subject containing only seven words, but so carefully chosen

 Tt has been aptly said that life is like an arithmetic, made up of prob lens which a very few find easy to solve, and which the others never learn to work out. Now we all know that the students failures to solve the problems of arithmetic are due to his incomplete or defective knowledge and application of the principles of mathematics. But did you ever con slider that so many of us fail to solve the problems of everyday life because of our incomplete or defective know ledge of the infinite Principle of eX- istence. God?
 Christian Science is giving to man an understanding Of God as the inf nite Principle of all that really ex- ists. the Principle which. in the words of our textbook, is underlying, over lying and encompassing all true be- ing" Science and Health. p. 496); the Principle which operates through unchanging laws. laws which are al ways beneficent and always compre- hensible and demOnstrable.
 Many of us have. been taught in our earlier days that it is not essen tial to understand God, if we will but believe in Him.

And are not the problems of life vastly more important and momen tous than anything that mathematics can present? Problems which, when wrongly worked, leave us heavy lad en with sickness, fear, want. misery and sin? Christian Science, follow ing the teachings of Jesus the Christ,

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LECTURE IN BISBEE
 CLAIMS ATTENTION
Recent Address by William R.
 Rathoon Pointing Way to Happiness Here and Here after Aroused Much Interest

Because of the general interest manifest in the lecture on Christian Science delivered by William R. Rath oon, c. s. B., at the Orpheum Theatre on October 29, The Review publishes the following synopsis:
 Because Christian Science is not a religion of waiting but of immediate action and prompt results; because it is the religion Of the present as well as the future; because it puts joy into life and helps us to overcome death, and because in all it's miristratiOns it pushes aside the transitory forces of the human will and the human mind and grasps instead the ever-available and unlimited powers of the divine Mind, God Himself, for these reasons its universal appeal is being gladly heard by every class and type of hu- mankind Naturally it may be asked, How is the investigator to acquire Q practical knowledge of this Science for which so much is claimed?
 Every science should be rightly learned from it's textbook and Chris tian Science is no exception to this rule. Besides the Bible there is but one. textbook of Christian Science the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Bak- CT Eddy. the book that has won its way into the hearts and lives of un- numbered men and women and chil- dren, who have found in it a quiet friend whose silent influence is a mighty power for good.
 Tt is perhaps unnecessary to in form this audience that the Discover CT and Founder of Christian Science and the author of it's textbook was woman-a gentle woman. Mary Bak- CT Eddy. You may know too that for years she stood alone-one lone wom- an against the whole wOrid-Opposed and assailed by the world of theology, of medicine, of established usage, of tradition, of conservatism; opposed by the world of intellect and of ignor- ance, of common sense and uncom- mon sense, of bigotry and creulty, of ridicule and falsity; and ever pursued by the human and inhuman hatred of truth. All these forces were for years arrayed against this one woman and the message God had placed in her hands to deliver to humanity But

 But let us ever remember, my friends. that we are to rise not through the exercise of the human will, not through hypnOtism, occult Ism, or the like, but in the strength of Spirit. Our God-given dominion does not operate through the channels that the human mind provides but only through the ever-present and ever available forces of Spirit.

Is it not pitiful, then. that through fear or indifference or infidelity or lethargy, mankind has allowed this deific bestowal to lapse into desuetude?

 Meet every adverse circumstance as it's master"
 Not only are we here told to do this, but we are also shown how it is to be done. Throughout the whole book we are reminded that mans di- vine birthright is dominion, not sub jection. You remember that in the first chapter of Genesis, where the spiritual creation of man and the uni verse is described. We are told not that man is made from a rib, a bone.
