Scriptures by Mrs Eddy, on page 5sl,

and perfect; the inspiration OF good.

acting all evil, sensuality, and mortal
ity."
Cannot all see how such angels could
and did indeed heal the children Of
Israel, how they could and did minister
unto Jesus; how they can heal you and
me and everyone, and minister to us
all Have not all of you entertained
just such angels, time and time again,
unawares2 Have not pure, spiritual
intuitions, inspirations Of goodness,
come to you and to all, and have they
not been helpful to you! Where did
they come from; from your brain, or
from anyones brain? No They came
from Mind, the only true Mind, God, to
inspire, TO enlighten you, to bear you
up, and to set you up on high Have
are all been inspired Them OF course
we have Have we always needed these
inspirations That il the question. 1t
is not uncommon TO hear that someone
il inspired by malice or hate, Every
one is ready TO credit this, but let
someone be said to be inspired by God,
who is infinite power, intelligence, Life,
Truth, and Love, and derision aud re-
wiling are sure to be his lot. Is not
everyone inspired with Lifet II not,
how then does anyone live? Are not
all inspired by Mind, Truth, Lovef II
not, how do YOU express intelligence,
how is it that YOU are truthful, kind,
loving, Does this surprise you: Then
lei me say that you were inspired be-
fore you ever breathed or saw the light
Of day, and that inspiration is the one
essential Of existence.
Everyone il most particular as TO the
air he breathes. No one without sbso-
lite necessity would for moment
bteathe foul air. Everyone is most
particular as TO the food he eats, what
raiment be puts on, and 50 forth How
mach more particular should all be as
to what they are inspired by; for
whether the thought that comes to us
be good or bad, it il one that comes to
us, not one that originates with us,
and sooner or later we are bound to ex.
press it, Is it pure, beautiful, good,
true, the thought of health, of life, of

How often do we hear the question
How can | help what | think and tht
assertion, No one can help what be
thinks. We not only can help what We
| think, but in order to do better, feel
| better, be better, we must help what we
| think, for ais a man "thinketh in his
heart, so is he; and the way that has
been indicated, the way that Christian
Science teaches, is the only way in
which this help can come; the only
way under heaven in which men can be
saved here, now, anywhere, everywhere
from ills of any kind and of every kind
| 1t is the only way in which one and all
| irrespective of time, place, vocation
circumstances, can be truly armed and
prepared, have absolute safety and
complete efficiency.
A Word About the Discoverer and
Founder.
What has been said will but dimly

most practical and scientific system OF
ethics and healing discovered in the
words and works of our Master by Mrs
Eddy, Through her faithful, loving
Christlike leadership Mrs, Eddy found.

advanced it to its present world wide

itself such by comforting reforming
and healing the vast majority of those
who have honestly, earnestly studied
her books, she has enriched the world
beyond all reckoning.
AS one who had the privilege OF
visiting her home, let me say that all
about Mrs Eddy was Of the very sim
plest. In her the world indeed had a
| true example Of simple living and high
| thinking. Those who were with her
bear loving witness to the fact that she
watched worked, prayed without ceas-
ing, and that she did this for all alike
| That this untiring conservation has
borne fruit the fruit Of purer, hap
pier, healthier, more useful and loving
liyes-is attested on every hand. The
modest fortune that came to Mrs. Eddy
through the publication and sale of her
written works is by her direction, like
her life, being devoted to the promul.
cation of her high teaching; to the
establishment of on earth peace, good
will toward men; to the establishment
Of the kingdom of God on earth, in
which there can be no sorrow, no pain
no death.
