In this blacklist tragedy of our race,

ready given. We all have given. We
must give again.
We have not yet sent enough TO
keep them all alive. Even doing out
but barley STEPPED in warm water to
our brethren, we have actually failed
to send enough for all. And daily,
from the long lines, hundreds are ac-
tually turned away to starve with
their families through another day, be-
cause there is no more, because, even
of this poor food, you and / do not
send enough.
And l do not promise that we may
even save these people-if the war is
to last. But we can at least prove
ourselves Jews, prove ourselves their
brothers and postpone the end. We
need not yet let them die.

And for every Jew who does not meet
this call, meet it quickly and gener-
ously, someone of our brethren dies
No. one can give your share. But the

Religious Writer Says Otherwise There
Would Be No Invariable Law.

"If Christianity Is not scientific,
and Science Is not of God. then there is
no invariable law. and truth becomes an
accident" These are the words Of Mrs.
Eddy, on page s42 of Science and Health.
and are quoted by an editorial writer in

caption, Christianity Is Scientific

people thought that the foundations OF
religion were being shaken to their
depths. 1t would have been truer. how
ever, to- have said that prevalent re-
ligious beliefs were being upset; and 1t
would have been quite safe to have added
that the discoveries of natural science,
so-called, went even further; they de-
stroyed utterly many feeble beliefs which
had no surer basis than tradition or
credulity. But these discoveries in the
realm of the relative did not touch, in
the slightest degree. the fundamentals OF
real being; and SO they did not in any
way injure real religion.
I'm still later days the effort has been
made 20 keep Christianity apart from
science, to look upon them as distinct or
as having little or nothing in common.
This of course arises from the fact that

irrational to believe that there can be
any but the one kind Of Christianity,
namely, that which was practiced by
Christ Jesus.
Consider next the question Of Science.
The popular belief Is that Science is the
knowledge of the phenomenal, the knowl-
edge of matter and the so-called laws Of
matter. But is that which men call the
knowledge of matter and of natural law
real knowledge at all? It is quite cor
rect to say that Science is knowledge;
but Christian Science shows clearly that
what passes for Science and goes by the
name of science. whether with the ad-
jective natural before 1t or not, is not
Science at all but a relative sense of
law. relative appreciation Of law,
springing from the belief that matter ID

The Only True Science.
The only true Science Is the Science
or knowledge Of reality; that is. Of Spirit
or God, because God Is infinite. Think
for a moment how speculative science
has endeavored to usurp the place of
absolute Science. Through the former
men have reared all sorts Of material
systems. Many of these systems purport
to be able to heal sickness; and not a
few actually hold out to suffering hu'
manity the hope that sin can be de-
stroyed through material means also.
Christian Science has proved beyond all
doubt that divine Science, or, simply.
Science. destroys the belief OF sickness
and heals the error Of sin, Just as the

founder of Christianity was the Prophet
Of Nazareth. Jesus the Christ; and the
system of metaphysics taught by him
and practiced by him is Christianity.
Jesus taught the absolute truth about
God; he taught nothing else. He in
dulged at no time in mere speculation
about God or reality; he explained what
reality is. He did not endeavor to eluci-
date physics: he was the great expositor
