How He Is Cured.

Is our patient really cured, and
how has the cure been effected? This
is the important question. There
can be no doubt that of those who
give up doctors and drugs, and re-
ceive Christian Sciences cheerful
message that they are not sick at
all. because there is no disease,
sickness is only mortal error, the
product of mortal mind,' many are
actually cured. The healer's treat
ments, which consist of repeated
harping on this Christian Science
formula and it's variations, and the
readings of so many pages of Sci
ence and Health have only added
the element of "suggestion," which
has great curative value in nervous
disorders.
That in many cases where the dis
ease is deep-seated, organic, and far
advanced, no cure is effected; that,
in spite of all hea1ers, and all of Mrs.
Eddy's inspired wisdom, the disease
terminates fatally, while the treat
ment of skilled, scientific, and hon
est physician might have saved the
patients life, is also true. In such
cases Christian Science, in dissuad-
ing the patient from availing him
self of the best knowledge and skill
that medical science affords, is do
ing great harm.
We know that Christian Science

acquaintance, in his sympathy with
the sufferer, suggests Christian Sci
ence. Why not give it trial? 1t
surely can do no harm. 1t is not
quite as expensive as medical treat
ment and drugs, and is supposed to
effect wonderful cures.
Or it may be that Christian Sci
enlist gets hold of our patient and
uses all his persuasive powers to
induce him to consult a healer. He
finally consents. What will not a
person do to regain health and hap
piness?
After a few so-called treatments,
10, our patient actually begins to
feel improved in health. His prog
ress becomes perceptible, and after
a while he finds himself cured, and
all that without doctors, without
tormenting treatments, without
drugs, and at comparatively much
smaller expense. It is apparently
the result of Christian Science heal
ing.
It does not require much further
argument to induce such one to
become an enthusiastic devotee Of
the new cult, and to join the church.
He at the same time, and as a mat
ter of course, breaks whatever afflli-
ations he had with his former fellow
Jews.

devotees also die, although consist
ent Christian Scientists get out of
the difficulty by declaring that there
is no death. The patient simply
passed on
Granting all that, the question
still remains: How does Christian
Science produce its many cures?
Simply by keeping the patient from
drugs, which are often injurious to
the system instead of beneficial, and
by cheering him with the thought
that there is nothing serious the
matter with him, that he is on the
road to rapid recovery, thus giving
nature chance to restore the lost
energy, and to heal the irritated and
diseased parts of the body.
Nature is the best healer. Mans
skill, and his knowledge of natures
processes, may help natures cura-
tive work along; while his igno-
rance, stupidity, negligence, and
wickedness, may battle and defeat
her best efforts. So great is natures
power to heal and to repair, that
often patient RECEIVERS in spite of
all that quacks may do. 1t is then
that the quack or the healer claims
credit for the cure
Man can greatly further natures
healing processes by keeping the pa
TENTS mind free from fear and wor
ry, by inspiring him with hope and
cheer, thus increasing his vital ener-
gies and recuperative powers, and
accelerating his recovery. The
quack neglects to do that, or pur-
posely avoids doing it; while Chris
tan Science uses this method to per-
lection.
do not hesitate to say that the
spread of Christian Science is large
ly the fault of the medical fraternity.
1t harbors too many quacks, and lg-
noramuses. Instead of quoting the
patients fear, and helping nature to
do her best work, they often arouse
his fear, and produce a diseased
state of mind; give drugs unneces-
sarily, subject him to tormenting
treatments, weaken him, and impair
and exhaust his vital energy. Many
a patient is thus driven to seek re-
lief from a Christian Science healer.
How to Cure Ourselves.
It is certainly true that many OF

tai. Most of Our physical derange-
ments are the result of lust and ex-
cess, impure thoughts, impure de-
sires, impure acts. Many of our
troubles come from fear, worry, en-
wy, jealousy, hate-all mental states,
and all evil ones.
There is no doubt that if we could
always compose and control our
selves, and Danish impure thoughts
and desires, fear and worry, from
our minds, most of Our bodily ills
would disappear. If only we did not
think so much about our precious
selves If we did not pay so much
attention to every little ache, or
pain, or discomfort! If we would
only, by mental effort, forget
them, and go about our work as if
nothing were the matter with us,
how soon we should be well again!
Still better, if we did not think
so much about ourselves, and
thought more about others, thought
more about our duty of being help
full to them, of bringing them lit
tie JOY and happiness! Or if we
took little more interest in the
great problems that agitate modern
society, and joined in the various
movements for human betterment
and uplift in which the best minds
and hearts of our age are engaged!
Would not that be a nobler method
of seeking relief from Our ailments
than Christian Science that makes
one self-centered, absorbed in his
own precious self, his painless, dis
easeless, sinless, matterless self?
What I have thus far tried to
show is that it is not Christian Sci
ence that effects the cure, not Mrs.
Eddy's book, not the healer's
prayers and phrases, but that ele-
ment in Christian Science which
corresponds to common sense, the
method that every honest and sci
entifc physician ought to employ
upon his patients, the method that
every sensible human being ought to
be able to use for himself, namely,
the control Of the body by the mind,
the dispelling of fear and worry
from the mind, and the instilling into
it of hopeful and cheerful thoughts.
