JUDAISM AND DIVINE HEALING
By DR.. S. N. Deinard.

despair, sap his body and mind Take
the most prolific source of trouble
and pair, disease and sickness. Peo-
pie consult physicians, take drugs and
various treatments, and still in many
cases obtain no relief, and often get
worse. When the case is serious,
they submit to the surgeons knife,
and then very often linger in pain,
and die in agony. This is not meant
as an indictment Of doctors and sur
geons. They are only human, and
they do their best according to their
light and skill. And their PATIENTS,
too, are only human, and subject to
all the ills that flesh is heir to- But
that does not help the sufferer, and
therefore, the need is always felt for
some new ways and new means
of alternating and relieving pain and
trouble. And for thousands of people
nowadays Christian Science and SINH
lar faiths fill this need.
Since Christian Science has in such
a short time won such large follow
ir,g and counts its adherents by the
hundreds of thousands there must be
some truth in it, or something good
and helpful, some sound principle,
even tho this principle is disguised
and hidden by mass of false or pre-
posterous ideas. There can be no
doubt as to what this principle or ele-
ment of truth is It is the power OF
the mind over the body and it's func-
tons. The mind with it's worries
and fears and anger and hates, and
envy and jealousy, with its impure
thoughts and impure desires and
other disturbed or i'll disposed states,
is often the cause of disease or ILL
health, of functional disturbance of
the body. And the mind with its hope,
and courage, and joy and cheer, and
love with its well-disposed and pleas
ant states is often the best and only
cure of disease, the best and only rem
edy for poor health. The natural
powers. of repair and recuperation
that the human body possesses are
helped and enhanced by happy frame
of mind
But in order to cultivate the right
happy, and harmonious state of mind,
we must have basic thought for Our
guidance, thought, conviction, that
shall serve us as perennial source

of encouragement, of hope and Joy
ard cheer. Such thought is supplied
to us by religion. 1t is the idea of
God, His goodness, His wisdom and
His power. God is good, merciful,
loving He is unto us as father is
unto his children. Once we become
possessed of this thought, hold firmly
to it, and let it become a fixed ele-
ment of our consciousness, the har
monious, hopeful, joyful state of
mind is secured, and half the battle
against ill-health is won. There will
then be no room in Our mind for wor-
ny, fear, anger and hate, for discour
agement and despair, also many causes
of bodily disturbance, discomfort, and
disease
Is rot the idea of Gods power and
Gods goodness the basic element OF
our faith, Judaism? Is not Judaism
the mother of all the other religions
that teach it? In what other religious
textbook is this thought more fire.
quently, more beautifully, more force
fully expressed than in our Bible, and
especially the Psalter? "The Lord is
My Shepherd, | shall not want. !" "The
Lord is my light and my salvation, of
whom shall I be afraid?" Gas a
father pitieth his children, so the Lord
pitieth them that fear Him."
What we, therefore, need, is to re-
turn to our faith with the utmost de-
votion and singleness of heart, and to
cultivate it persistently and intensely
and to place ourselves in a childlike
attitude of trust to God, our loving
father. The right and harmonious
state of mind will thus be developed,
a mind filled with hope and joy, and
cheer, with kindness, peace, and love.
That would become an unfailing
source Of divine healing for us. There
would be no necessity of going the
preposterous sense-defying length of
Christian Science, and saying that
there is no NATTER no pain, no sin;
that physicians ard medical treatment
are unnecessary. Our faith, the
source of divine healing, would sup
plement the work of the good, scienti-
fic, and skilful physician, would help
it along, and often obviate the need Of
it and save people from unnecessary
drug-poisoning.
But Our faith would help and guide
us in other directions, too, for disease
is only one source of human trouble
and misery Our faith would supply

 The third bloom was found in the cotton being cultivated by R. B. Kendrick, col, on the billiard farm north of McCro- ry. The first bloom last year was a few weeks later than those found this year.
