How can certain results bo achieved through a purely mental, tad yet careful i at unmistakably tnai a.. pertenre. both desirable and undesira ble. arc more or leaa the result of thought. Taking this fact upon tha mere basis of ordinary need and Itt supply, we sea that the farmer (dears bis land, plows It, aows hla crop, and naps and aells It, all because of thought. We see that houses and cltlea end mads and raflroada ara all built because of thought; that all the con veniences which eurround ut exist be cause of thought; that the hooka which «e read. Including both tha low and high forma of literature, all prose, po etry. and fiction, exist because of thought: that the music which we love le composed beeaum of thought; and the Instruments upon which It Is por- tormril are made because of thought; ud even the human voice Itself, said to be the moat perfect of all Instruments, li but the response to the artistic men tal call of the atnter. Xni only this, but history and expe rience both show that evil thought leads i„ manifest Itself after Its kind also. Differences of opinion In busi ness nr In relation to politics, govern ment. science, and art are manifested •e hatred, malice. Jealousy, envy, and itvenxe. all producing untold misery (or mankind. Even the gospel of the Prince of Peace has often been so mis understood (hat various factions hove sprung up In Its name, and, because of differences of thought and opinion, have Involved the race tn misery and war. tomeilmes desolating the civilised •orid. In View of tha tact that thought la deing everything which wo know about, it ehottid not seem strange that It la •Iso doing a great many things which *e do not know about. Unquestion ably thought la always producing some mutts, and any person can see that that the results must be like the thought. Remembering this. It behnovea all who desire to achieve good, either for themselves or others, to learn of lbs power of righteous thought. One »ho approaches the subject of Chrla- <•« Bclence In Ibis way will find that " 1,1 assuming tha right mental atti tude toward II.

These Instances Shaw that It la poael- «e to have experiences which are pure- if mental, and ona can therefore con- **l»* of a method which Is purely metaphysical. Unquestionably the handsrd of right thought and right •Jinking must be that which la etemal- w dght. \o leaser standard would be »«»h lent or adequate. Such a ertte- ™" *" i hat can only be obtained “rough right Ideaa concerning Ood, the Buy Btfort Easter i Pay After •W ■"« ope rales exactly, unfailingly, lawfully. That which la supremely anti •*Ten#ly scientific could not well be denned more tersely than by the* unfailing, lawful. Oen- •raUy speaking, religion haa been sup- posed to refer to belief in Ood. and arience to material laws and material phenomena. In Chrlatlan Science, by means of unanswerable logic, tha true relationship of religloN* and science ta discerned. Unquestionably the high est meaning that can be given to the word science la that It primarily re- « !* or Ood Himself aad to Hla unalterable law. Religion la thua taken from the realm of belief and oecDmea exact In Ita basis and teach- Inf. and aclence takes on the huaa of divinity* Basis of Christian 6cienc* Practice. That human thought baa not always been correct In foundation la self-evi dent when we remember that there are many contradictory opinions and be llefa concerning Ood. some of them un. reasonable, unnatural and even gro tesque. If tha right Idea la to be gained, wrong beliefs must be put aside. Christian Science gives definitions of Ood which are found to be universally acceptable and satisfying to human reason. It declares that Ood, as Cause and Creator, must be Infinite Intelli gence, and It makes thin fact clear to us and available through the uae of the word Mind aa a synonym for the word Ood. It declares that Ood la Mind and that Mind It Ood. It never con fuses the use of the word Mind In Ibis relationship, however, with what Is or dinarily called a mortal's mind, sup posedly dependent upon matter or brain for Intelligence, but on the con trary, uses It always In the divine sense. The thought of God aa hu manly personal haa made Hit omni presence seem Impossible, but when we understand that He la Mind, Hla omni presence Is natural, reasonable, anfi real to ua. In fact, II Is clear that this eonelltutea the actuality of all true ex istence. Chrlatlan Science therefore, in this process of correcting human be. la Infinitely good. He also provides for evil, a belief which It mere or leee promulgated by acbdUStto theology, and such persona have therefore often considered themselves to be oulalOe of the pale of rehglon. Yet one never en counters such a person without finding that ho will cheerfully admit hla belief In good. Although declaring perhaps that he knows nothing of Ood, because of the association ofthern old material epta with that word, he vrtll say that he knows something of good— that he kqowi It to exist and that he strives continually to manifest It. This shows conclusively that he knows something of Ood. for God Is good, and Infinite good la God, and to know any- tlflc basts for religion, takes away the old personal thought concerning God and establishes a better one. Suppose oith. who thinks that God la personal In the same sense that human beings are should possess the skill t« depict hla thought upon canvas nr paper, and were to du ao. Ami then suppose that he were to kneel down and pray to that picture. The act would seem ab surd to every one who might behold It. The comment would he. "Why. what Is the use of doing thnt? That picture Isn't God. It can't answer prayer nor do anything else." After all. Is the situation changed when one not possessing the ability to outline a picture of a person, still continues tn think of that picture and prays to that mental Image? A mental Image la no more God than la a material pk-tura. and It la no wonder that humanity's prayers have not generally been an swered—prayers uttered to a mental Image. Christian Science shows that the per sonality of God la Infinite and can not be depicted or outlined by any human being, nor are wo losing anything In changing our thought upon this point, but rather gaining everything. One who feels that he doesn’t know how to pray because he learns that this mental Image la not Ood. should remember that he supposed that It was, and that he ran lose nothing, either In relation lo praver or to Ood. by getting rid of a false belief concerning both. Further more. Christian Science makes prayer more personally available because- It n/ul whisk he. gtvee the right Idea of Clod which be comes personal knowledge, revealing man's unity with Him. -Christian Science also shows that to regard G td aa changeable or variable haa tended to asperate ua from Him. and has nulli fied faith. It declares the unchanging. Invariable, and constant nature of God —shows that He la good always, and never known anything unlike Himself. It uses a word to broaden, amplify, and -uplift our thought, and that word la Principle, and It uses thin word In terchangeably with Ood. This neces sarily Includes tho discernment (hat Rod la good, and thfs word Good Is used In Christian Science aa a sub stantive and Interchangeable with the word God. Let ua remember In all of thin that words can not In any way affect God or change Him In llie least. These words and others used In Chris tian Science are Intended lo help mor tals. and do so In proportion as they arc undcratood. This word Good Is an effectual • help In relieving one of the wrong concept of God'e personality and other Incorrect notions concern ing Him. Many peopld have been en abled to take fhelr Jfrat steps In the Chrlatlan religion through understand ing that God la Good and that Good la God. Many Intelligent and educated persona have not been able to accept the prevailing thought regardlM Ood a personality and the myetlcal thcorles Involved In the belief that allhiAigh He degree Is to kaow something „ There la no auch thing as an agnostic or unbeliever In all the earth. Chrlatlan Belenee Aeeeunts far Kvil. Admitting aa all Christiana do. at leaat ostensibly, that tbe Ten Corn- mandmafitg angliwtr in (tod, la It not Inevitable te conclude tnit they express truth or science? Practically the first of them. "Thou ahalt have no ether gods before Me.” fa all-inclusive. It coincides with the omnlpottace. om niscience and omnlpfaeence of God— that Is. tbe an powar, all known - — and all praMnea of Sod air Good, clearly mean that there la no power. knowledge er presence to aril. The average human being, however, who believes (hot evil is sure to happen and that It Is far more powerful than good, finds that the statements of the -all powar, knowledge and presence <if Ood aeem at variance with actual ex perience. Yet he Is forced to admit that to acknowledge God aa the sole Cause and Creator la to conclude that there te only one power, Ood. Good, and that to admit any other la to break the first commandment. Christian Bclenco reconciles tbe average chrlatlan to theee etatmeota and others which be has said he believed and enables him to actually believe them- It shows that the first commandment, ever declaring tha one God, declares tha one way of science. It dearly shows that, though human experience is at riance with the truth of absolute science, which has been briefiy and. I confess. Inadequately atated hers, yet auch experience but reveals tbe need of science. Moreover. Christian Brieare gives him the logical and Irrefutable facts of being, teaches him the science of Truth, the aclence of Life, and thua enables him to face human diffi culties fearlessly and remove them Just tn proportion to Ills understanding of that science. The tendency with a be- glnner, however, ta often to utterly misconstrue the teaching of Christian Science upon this point and to misjudge It In consequence. He I* apt to say, "How absurd! These Christian Scien tists any that all la good." And we agree with him that each a construc tion placed upon Chrietlan Science teaching would make oae consider It absurd. The construction, however, ta erroneous. Christian Science la no ayatem of superficial optimism. It de clares the aclence of Life or Being and shows lie availability to man through right understanding and correct prac tice. It declares God le good and that In and of Him Is no evil at all, but It never declares that human experience la all good. On tbe contrary, Christian and perfectly satisfactory solution of Ml problems of human watenpa It la ne out ayatem in tba world widen has aver done this, and while Christian Beisatlits do not pretend that they ha we solved Ml problems, they do gen- •rally daeUre that they have gained BW aBtufksttma mm hqqvtnwa through even a partial demonstration of the sublime facta of Christian Bclence by which even the most per sonal and alterable thoughts ate MB purified, aad the possibility of tha di vine promise In sonte maaaura realised: "I shall he satisfied, when I awoke, with thy likeness." Through progress and proof of hla own undemanding of Christian Science one beglna lo com d the explanation mads by It a nature of evil wherein It la seen that ath. sickness and death are no part of Ood. tha Mind which la hotl- neaa, health and life; that, therefore. ■In. sickness' nnd death are WtUlMl God or science or truth In the world, and are due to a false, finite, material. Inadequate, unscientific end untrue sense of being aa existent In matter. Belief In Christ. This separation of all evil from our thought of God Is unquestionably the way of science, the way of tha first commandment. It Is tha way Indicated *' » teachings of Jesus the Cbriat. Christian Scientists should be misunderstood tn their practical appli cation of those teachings by ayaisms and theories which do not pretend to make any practtcM application of them. Is perhaps Inevitable, but whether so or not, the fact remains that practical roof Indicates aolantldc understand- The sick have been healed and are t healed In Chrlatlan Bclenca through scientific thought and think ing aa Indicated In the teachings of Jesus.

Thua wa begin to see whet la meant by the mind which was in Christ Jesus, since we recognise that Mind must be the healing and saving power.

He said, "Deny thyself," land again, "for If I go not away, tbe Comforter will not come unto you," showing dearly that the need Is always for IndlvIduM under standing.
