White Divorce Suit

The Marital Relations of Christian Scientists Clearly Defined.

To the Editor of The World:—In your edition of yesterday appeared a special from Chicago relating to a divorce granted to George E. White, ex-Congressman of that city. The article in question seemed to imply that Christian Science was responsible for the cause of the divorce, alleged as desertion.

In this connection it will doubtless interest many of your readers to know what the teachings of Christian Science really are upon the subject of the marriage relation. I therefore inclose you for publication the following quotations and church tenets from the Christian Science text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker G. Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, and also extracts from some of her other writings.

(From the Christian Science Journal, June, 1893.)
