The author of the Christian Science text-book takes no patients, does not consult on disease, nor read letters referring to these subjects.
The
large and steady increase in the ranks of Christian Scientists has been for years a subject of comment, and there is always more or less question on the part of the general public as to why this gain in numbers should continue.
When
we realize with what momentum the twentieth century has vaulted into history, we can but expect that it will bring us many and great surprises, and yet it is quite natural that we should be somewhat startled on reading that a Christian minister, a representative of him who said," "He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also," has publicly advocated before a late meeting of the New York State Medical Association, that in the case of suffering incurables the civilized and Christian thing to do, in this enlightened age, is to grant them the privilege of a painless death!

I should like to give a proof of our Father's loving care for His children which came to me recently, with the hope that it may help some other mother who, like myself, is obliged to fill the place of both father and mother, and may at times find the problems of this life perplexing and discouraging.
