Unfortunately
for humankind, the accumulative effect of centuries of erroneous thinking about business and about supply has periodically culminated in conditions such as the present universal business depression.
Christian Science
turns the searchlight of Truth on all human frailties, and reveals to the honest student the defects in his own mentality, which do not belong to the true idea, man, as God's reflection.
The
prophet Micah, conscious of the one pure standard of national and religious integrity, was impelled to utter his protest against the dangers into which he saw his countrymen falling.
What
a wonderful meaning attaches to the word "today," when interpreted in the light of Christian Science! Instead of being just another twenty-four hours of work and worry, sickness and fear, each to-day stands forth as a new period, full of glory, opportunity, and fruition.
In
considering the metaphysical aspect of church elections, what more beautiful example could we take than that of Christ Jesus choosing his twelve disciples?
In
one of the art galleries in the city of Munich, Germany, is an interesting picture called "The Traveling Youth," one of Moritz von Schwind's idealistic portrayals, which represents a young man with a knapsack at his side resting beside the gnarled trunk of an old tree.

An article in your issue of October 3 implied mistakenly that the healing efficacy of Christian Science may be considered apart from its religious element.
Charles H. Parker, Committee on Publication for Cheshire, England,
While nothing is farther from my desire than to enter into controversy or to exchange a number of letters through your columns, I feel it only right to comment on a letter which appeared in your last issue.
Arthur G. Lothgren, Committee on Publication for the Province of British Columbia, Canada,
Reference was made to the editorial views of The Christian Science Monitor in an interesting editorial entitled "Their own Game," bearing on the tariff changes in Canada and the United States, which appeared in your columns on Monday, July 6.
All
who understand the teachings of Christian Science are given the power to reject the fallacies, the errors, with which a mortal or material sense of existence seems to be beset, errors apparently numerous and varied.

Testimonies of healings brought about at authorized lectures on Christian Science will be published in The Christian Science Journal or the Christian Science Sentinel, when verified as are other testimonies appearing in the periodicals.
Through the help of practitioners and through my own study of the Bible and the works of our revered Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, I have had many proofs of God's power.
In loving gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me, I want to add my testimony to the many helpful ones appearing in the Journal and Sentinel.

So many proofs have been given me that Christian Science is the Comforter promised by Jesus that in gratitude I desire to tell a little of what it has done for me.
About ten years ago a copy of a lecture on Christian Science was given me to read by another member of my family, who had recently become interested in its teachings.
With a heart filled with gratitude I should like to relate how I came into Christian Science, how I was healed through it, and what great blessings I have received.
Tears
when in deep self-pity shedWill dim the sunlight overhead,But songs of gratitude will bringA vision cleared of envying,Where clouds of discontent give wayThat there may shine a tearless day.
