It is true that a number of clergymen and others in the older denominations who cling tenaciously to what is called old theology and its dogmas, have refused to believe that Mrs. Eddy was under divine guidance in the discovery of Christian Science and in the writing of its text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." However, the statement of our critic that the Christian world has repudiated Christian Science is incorrect. There are hosts of active Christians who are students of Christian Science, and who employ its healing ministry, although they are not actively identified with the Christian Science organization.

At any rate the statement that Christian Science is of aught but God cannot be proved or disproved by mere belief or argument. Christian Science is demonstrable, and there are thousands of people in all walks of life who are proving that it is from the Father. It brings better morals, better health, better manhood, and better womanhood. Those who test its teachings impartially will find that these statements are very modest, since Christian Science is in reality the reestablishment of primitive Christianity. . . .
