News-Telegraph
An article in the News-Telegraph contained a reprint from the "Scratch Pad" which made reference to Christian Science in a way that would be misleading to anyone not familiar with that religious teaching.
The writer of the "Scratch Pad" item used in your paper was quoted as saying he believed a certain political group of people was "undertaking to use Christian Science on the American farmer," when considering the loss occasioned by the drought. In this connection he also said that he did not believe any amount of "mental operation the farmers . . . give themselves" would convince them they had not suffered severely from the drought.
While it is gratifying to note that the writer of the above-quoted comments said he did not use the term "Christian Science" in any slighting sense, his remarks nevertheless implied Christian Science to be a form of suggestion imposed by one person on another, or a kind of self-mesmerism through which an individual might be led to believe something which is untrue. Both of these phases of thinking are merely the operation of the mortal, human mind, and this in no wise enters into the practice of Christian Science.
