Christian Science is a deep and MMfed subject the deepest and most sacred that can occupy human thought and purpose, for it treats of Uod, man and the universe. It teaches God's omnipo tence, His omnipresence and his omnis cience. It teaches that (Jod is the one and only Principle of man, and the one and only principle of the univt-rse. It is the duty of the lecturer upon this subject to speak, primarily, to those who are not Christian Scientists. I shall endeavor to follow this rule, but I cannot see how I can speak of Christian Science at all, without saying some things to and for Christian Scientists, as well. I assume, therefore, that you will ex pect me to tell you something of the Christian Science text book and also of its author, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science. The Text Book: A law words, then, as to the text book. This book, of which the Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy is the au thor, was fir.it published in 1*^75. As re vised and enlarged at various times since then, it has reached at the present time over two hundred and fifty one editious of one thousand volumes each. It bears the title of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,'" and contains within its covers, in comprehen sive and comprehensible form, the entire text of Christian Science. It is true that Mrs. Eddy ha^ written man other book.-! and numerous articleo and e.-says for magazines and newspapers, as well as me.^ages to the Mother Church in Boston, but these are in explication of the text-book. This book is a treatise on healing through the power of God, or the Iivine Mind, and is, therefore, prop erly called an exposition of Mind healing. More specifically, it is a thorough exege ni- of the Scriptural method of healing all manner of diseases and of curing all manner of sin through the understand ing of (jod as all-present, all powerful, all wise and universal Mind. In short, this book is a spiritual interpretation of the Bible hence its title—"Key to the Scriptures." I am aware that I am making for the text-book of Christian Science a tremendous claim, but 1 shall endeavor to make good this claim before I close. The Discoverer and Founder: Mrs. Eddy is at once the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science. She dis covered for herself how to be healed of a sickness, the result of an accident, which, according to all ordinary evi dence, had placed her at the very door of death. This may be said to have been her original discovery. This aroused within her a burning desire to know how she was healed, and also to impart to others the knowledge of how the sick are healed. This led her to search the Scriptures that she might find the healing Principle. She pursued her search until she found the healing Prin ciple to bo God. She proved this by healing all manner of diseases, and she proved as well that the same under standing of God which healed sickness also destroyed sin. Having so found and proved tbe healing and saving Princi pie, she proceeded to teach others, to found a college for teaching this healing system, to found periodicals for its pro pagation, to found a church wherein the healing Gospel could be preached and expounded through public services and she adopted, from time to time, such other propaganda as became necessary to the establishment of a healing and saving religion. That such a system has been successfully established I need not say, for it is natter of common knowledge. Thus, I say, Mrs. hddy i both a Discoverer and Fouuder. Life and Character: And what of the life and character of one who has ac complished so much? 1 ani sure a 'ew words in reference to these will bo wel comed by every sincere inquirer. Born amid the beautiful but rugged hills of Bow, near Concord, New Hamp shire, of sterling and strictly religious parents, descended from a long line of worthy and distinguised aneesters of Scotch and English blood, Mrs. Eddy was favored by nature and by God with advantages which fitted her for a great career. Her early environments were such as to nurture and enlarge her inherited gifts. She was a student by natural bent and intuition. This native trend was strengthened by careful training in schools and academies as well as by com petent private tutors, among whom was her brother, Albert Baker, a graduate of Dartmouth college, and a distin guished lawyer and member of congress elect, having died, after a short illness, before taking his seat. Among her other instructors were such well known educators as Mrs. Sarah J. Bodwell Lane. Mr. Corser of Sandborton Hridgo academy, and Prof. Dyer 11. Sanborn, author of Sanborn's grainnmr early training has been supplemented by long years of careful ami thorough re search and study. Poetry was with her a natural gift. As a young girl she wrote poems of such merit that they were much sought for and published in newspapers and magazines. She was also a prose essayist of distinction long before she began her labors as a Christ ian Scientist. In evidence of this 1 make mention of a single circumstance. During Mrs. Eddy's residence in the south, as the wife of the late Col. Geo. Glover of Charleston, South Care lina, she wrote much for southern mag azines. Upon her return to the north, after the death of Col. Glover, her repu tation as a writer had become so wide that the Kev. Albert Case, then editor of the Odd Fellows' Magazine, offered her a salary of f3,0l0 per year to become a regular contributor to his periodicals At that time this was a large salary for literary work, and speaks strongly of the estimate put upon Mrs. Eddy's lit erarv ability. She has studied Speaking from this vantage ground, I can truthfully say that, intellectually, she is, without exception, the most acute and alert person I have ever seen that she labors incessantly and unselfishly fur the cause to which she has devoted her life, and that, notwithstanding her years, she performs an amount of labor each day which, if known, would seem incredible. As to her religious eharac ter. I speak my profoundest conviction when I say that I believe it to be as nearly Christlike as is possible to a den izen on this earth. I cannot conceive how a person on this plane of existence could walk more closely with God or exemplify a more exalted Christian life. And do not the wonderful results of her work, even thus far, prove this? To those familiar with them they most as suredly do. To the many thousands all over the globe who are the conscious beneficiaries of her work, she has indeed proved herself to be a religious reformer and a Christian evangel. Vet, notwith standing her highly spiritual nature, she is withal an intensely practical person. She keeps close watch of current affairs and acquaints herself with the world's doings. Her message to the Mother Church in Boston last Juno shows thi in an especial manner. It shows, more over, that she possesses the mental grasp of the world's great scholars and statesmen. Christian Sc-kme*, a Practical Relig ion: Christian Science is based upon the Bible. The Mosaic Decalogue and the Sermon or. the Mount are its Ar tides of Faith. The Church Tenets re state, in few words, the spirit of the Decalogue and Sermon on tho Mount. Christian Scientists are taught, from the beginning to the end of their text book, to emulate Jesus in all his ways. The The sincere Christian Scientist earnest ly endeavors to carry out this teaching. In the measure that he falls short of this, he fails of his discipleship. Christ ian Scientists do not claim to have reached perfection—far from it. But in so far as they are sincerely striving for that goal, they are obeying their teach ing and accomplishing good. Their Leader has repeated ly said, "Follow me only as I follow Christ." Si), in turn, should her followers say of themselves. They must seek a perfect life, they must constantly desire and unceasingly pray for guidance to such a life, and they, in common with all earnest seekers there for, may rest assured that, in the mean ure of their earnest seeking, they will, in due time, achieve and attain. Mean time they must be about their Father's business according to their best under standing and opportunities. To this end are they impelled by tbe very neces iTijiBuiiii'iiB niiiiiii'iirc ies, corsets, cioaits ana •PHONE 24-2. 9 'PHONE deeply in many of the higher branches of learn ingand in general literature. She is, from every point of view, a woman of sound education and liberal culture. Her Religious Character: It may not be amiss for me to say that for nearly ten years, as First Header in the Mother Church in Boston, and editor of the of ticial periodicals, I have had opportuni ties which enable me to speak intelli gently of Mrs. Eddv's life and character as well as of her labors and literary qual ities. JO. sity of their student-hip. So far as they are thus engaged they are daily rixting out of their own consoiouanc^ the seeds of error, the seeds of sin ar-ii di-ease, and to the eitent that they do this they are pointing the way for others. A good life reflects itself as na! urally and inevitably a.- the sun reflects it* light. The .-^un cannot help reflecting light. No more can a good character, help reflecting goodness. Reflecting goodness is the most practical, even as it is the most ideal, business on earth.' Through the ministrations of the true Christian Scienti-t pain is relieved and destroyed, all forms of sickneiuj are healed, all kinds of sin are over come, sorrow is assuaged, hio'cen hearta are restored to wholeness, separated and estranged friends, wives and husbands, ohildren and parents, brothers ami sis ters, are brought into sweeter and more harmonious relations than ever before. More specifically, chronic and organic, as well as acute diseases, in all stages and forms, are brought under subjection and healed, licentiousness is curbed and destroyed, drunkenness is overcome, and mental distress and worry driven out, through this Science of t'hristiani ty. These results are accomplished be yond dispute. Indeed, there are few who now have the hardihood to ijuestion them. Shall any one .-ay, then, that in -o far as this kind of work is being ac complished, is it not what the Nazarene did and taught should be done? And is not this a most practical work ia it results, even if it seems to be ideal in its methods? The hnyton.O., Herald. Now Ar* Toar KMmtif Df IToMw' S|.nrau tn l'! ..\cur«-*:i ktdner 111*.
