from proving the truth OF Christian
Science. II he desires to understand
the spiritual fact that Divine Love Is
all powerful, he must be willing to
set aside his material beliefs con-

There is not a doctor of medicine

medical practice altogether and have
taken up the practice of Christian

who have renounced their material
practice and become successful
Christian Science practitioners, have
I old OF their complete conversion to
the Christian Science point of view
in their practice, declaring that after
the light Of truth dawned upon
them, they were no longer tempted
| % secure a physical diagnosis OF dis
ease in order successfully to treat
case In Christian Science. In
| short, the whole material fabric of
materia medlca, with all OF It's boast
ed knowledge OF medicine and dis
ease, had dropped out OF their lives
as a phantom or a dream. They had
proved that there Is but one power
in the universe, and that is divine
Love.
There is not a lawyer who could
not prove the corrective power of
divine Love II he would exercise the
same diligence and persistence in
| mastering the teachings of Science
and Hoalth as he would In studying
his Blackstone. Many able judges
| and turists have accepted and
proved Mrs. Eddys contention, that
divine Love Is the only power, and
therefore the only lawmaker. The
moment a lawyer learns that divine
| Love is the only power here ana
now, he begins the real practice of
law, and finds himself far more ably
| equipped to mete out human justice,
kindness, and consideration, and to
settle numerous legal problems out
side as well as in the courtroom.
Christian Science should and does
make a strong appeal to the student
OF law IN that it deals with and de-
fines law from the highest spiritual
standpoint.
When the great Master declared.
"All power Is given unto me in heav-
en- and in earth" did he not deny
all supposed power In evil? Could
he have thought or acted from any
other standpoint and succeeded In
glorlfying the Father2 If he had once
admitted that evil Is a power, could
he have said 10 the seventy disciples
Behold. ! give unto you power 10
tread on serpents and scorpions
and over all the power OF the enemy;
and nothing shall by any means hurt
you?
God Is Mind.
When the apostle admonishes
Let this mind be in you, which was
also in Christ Jesus" was he think
ing Of mind separate and apart
from God? Was the Mind that gov
erned Christ Jesus anything less
than the Mind which is Coz, Was
It an inhabitant OF the brain and
subject TO chance and changer In
its use OF the term Mind" Chris
tian Science means the one Infinite
supreme. unchanging intelligence OF
the universe, that Mind which u

evil.

mesmerism, or hypnotism, with nc
understanding of the one divine
