The Basis of Science.


This is the faith that they would
have you throw away. You let a
woman shut herself off from the
world for herself and children. Let
her lose faith in her husband and
that family is broken up. Faith is
the basis of all medical science.
Faith is the bottom of scientific
discovery If you send out for a
doctor and you have no confidence
in either him or his medicines, they
will do you but little good. When
the three ships started out with
Columbus as its admiral, they
wanted him to turn back. Columbus
replied to their queries, we will
sail on. The feeling of mutiny in
creased. In reply to further
queries, he said: eve will sail on
