Of thought Christian Science healing
is brought about in the same way. In
both, the healing Principle and law are
mental, and we are thus led to exam
inc into the nature of Mind and mind
action.
Christian Science teaches that Mind
is that which thinks, that which ex-
presses itself in ideas, intelligence,
consciousness. Thus it is the basis of
all manifestation, the Principle and in
telligence of the universe.
This divine actually is the scientific
basis upon which all Christian healing
is demonstrated. the divine Principle
whose unlimited power is utilized in
the overcoming of sin and sickness.
Christian Science shows that the So
called mind which includes the belief
in evil. matter and disease, is not real

The love and gratitude which Chris

Is not to be wondered at when one
takes into account the great good
which has come into their lives as the
result Of her teachings.
The whole world is indebted to her
for her Scientific and spiritual inter-
probation of the Bible, especially the
words and works Of the Master, and
for her demonstrate ton of the truth of

PROF. Herring.

There was a large attendance at the
lecture on Christian Science which was
given in the First Unitarian church
Thursday 'evening by Prof. Herman s.
Herring. c. S. B., member OF the board of
lectureship of the mother church, the
First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Bos-
ton. Mr.. Herring was very pleasing
speaker and his address was very con-
vincing one. setting forth in a clear way
the principles of the church and the
things for which it stands. He spoke In
part as follows:
Christ Jesus, the great physician, the
divine healer, has for all time set the
standard Of perfect healing before hui
mainly, and that many do not vet be-
lieve in his gospel results from a lack
of understanding Of the true nature
and philosophy of the so-called mir
acles which he performed.
The fact that Christian Science heals
can readily be determined by any sin
cere investigator, and the supporting
evidence reveals its coincidence with
spiritual healing, thus proving this
healing to be true and possible today
and establishing the fact that Chris
tian Science is Messianic.

Rizow makes the following concrete

A Call for Volunteers

IL Is the desire of the Washington
administration that the Liberty Bonds,
now being offered. the proceeds of the
sale of which are to finance the war,
should be taken not by the large
moneyed institutions, but by the farm
ers, working people and merchants,
making it in every sense OF the word
a POPULAR LOAN. showing that the
people as whole are supporting the
administration in this great crisis.
The Waterville committee for the
sale of Liberty Bonds hope to place
100000 worth Of these bonds in Wat
erville and vicinity. That means that
every person who can possibly save
$50 in the next year will be expected
and should be glad to purchase one OF
these bonds. A personal canvas is to
be made by over 100 canvassers as
quickly as the details can be ar
ranged.
AS the committee wishes to give
everyone an opportunity to assist in
this work, we now CALL FOR VOL
UNTEERS, who will be willing to as
sist in the canvas and solicit for the
sale of the bonds, a service that will
require from each person one or two
days time.
Any man or woman who will vol
unteer for this service are requested
to notify II. l.. Emery, who has charge
of this part of the work. or Sanger
