THE TRUE CHARITY

ELOISE CAMERON MAC GREGOR.

Blessed are the poor in spirit.—Matthew, 5:3.
And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
Mark, 10:50.

In our zeal that relatives, friends, or patients learn of Christian Science it might be well to remember the above texts, for until mortal mind is dissatisfied with what it has and learns the inadequacy of its own false theories to save from sin, sickness, and sorrow, it is not yet "poor" in its own sight, but believes itself rich. In a state of ignorance one might believe himself prosperous while accumulating a quantity of counterfeit money; but after repeated attempts to use the money he would gradually become convinced of the fraud, and come to see that the time and effort spent in securing it was wasted.
