Religious Questions

but He incarnated the truth and holi-
ness which they predicted.
All men should rejoice In the high
moral ideals Of the Upanishad, Of Con
fucius. Plato, Seneca. Marcus Aurelius
and the rest OF the great ethical ricnt-
tors Of humanity. Their analogous re-
lations to Biblical teachings show how
deeply Gods spirit has influenced the
race at large.
But we are not jcopardized for want
of ethics, nor does Jesus emphasize these
beyond their legitimate boundaries.
what we need is viltalization to en-
able us to be and to do the good we
clearly visualize. The Master is inf
nitely more than moralist. He Is moth
ing less than the life giver whom Chris
tian experience recognizes as such, and
therefore adores. It is His life for
which our scanty veins do pant" and
He supplies 1t abundantly to recipient
souls. In my opinion. most Of the
ethical principles prevailing 3oday origi-
nate In the Jewish and Christian reve-
lation, while the balance is chiefly de-
rived from Asiatic, Greek and Latin
thinkers.

Moreover, she was naturally OF an
intellectual type, and during the DAYS
when I knew her was constantly ex-
tending her mental horizons by read
ing and study. I sat through one OF
her classes once at her invitation,
and while I am not, and never was, a
Christian Scientist. I was impressed
by her grasp of metaphysical prob
lens and the clarity with which she
expressed her convictions.

indeed. she was always the most
reasonable of wonen-that, and an In
variable serenity, were her chief char
acteristics.
Her family was OF good old New
England stock--the sort that does not
lend itself to pretense or hypocrisy.
She NAV have been mistaken In some
of her convictions-or right for all /
can say-but one thing Is sure, and
that is that her convictions were her
own. not borrowed. but worked out
arduously by her own mental EFFORTS.
IT had long known her before the

tally competent-unable to handle
her own affairs. You doubtless re-
call the case. There was evidence and
legal argument a plenty, but what
really settled the case was her own
testimony before the three masters to
whom the case was referred.
Edgar A. Aldrich, a district judge,
had appointed three associates to con-
duct the inquiry with him. She APP
peared and sustained most searching
inquisition at her own home. 1t was
an ordeal before which any woman
might have shrunk-certainly one
which none not equipped with keen
intellect and ready wit could have
undergone with success. But her re-
sponses TO the inquiries put to her. her
composed attitude, her clear compre-
hension of the position in which she
was placed, and the quiet and convinc-
ing way in which she defended herself
made an indellible impression on those
coldly legal minds.
After that episode nobody around
Concord ever ventured to question Mrs.
Eddy's complete sanity, nor the entire

been attacking the Christian Science

Mrs. Eddy. can only say that II they
had lived In Concord when she did,
and had known her as I knew her.

dedicated five years later.
