Immediate Cures

It is with pleasure we re-publish the following from a recent issue of the Boston Traveler. This just acknowledgment by the press, of the good work which is being done by Christian Scientists, is in striking contrast with the unjust criticism they have so long endured:

"The prevalence of the grippe in Boston and vicinity has been more marked lately than for some time previous, but the Christian Scientists of the city claim that because of their ministrations the epidemic has greatly abated.

A representative of The Traveler has visited several Christian Science practitioners on the strength of the statement that a number of notable cures in the way of the grippe had been effected. It cannot be said that any kind of investigation was made of the cases reported. Indeed, no work of verification even was tried, mainly because the practitioners did not care to give out the names of the persons who had been cured.
