The letter by "Questioner" in your issue of the 10th instant is interesting, as it shows clearly the growing esteem in which Christian Science is held by many who are not actual members of this denomination, but who are ready to approach the subject without prejudice, and have found spiritual enlightenment in the writings of Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science.

There is, however, a mistake in one of the quotations which requires correction. The word "Mind" in the original text is capitalized and the quotation should read, "God is Mind and God is infinite; hence all is Mind."

Mrs. Eddy, in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 591), defines "Mind" as "the one God; not that which is in man, but the divine Principle, or God, of whom man is the full and perfect expression; Deity, which outlines but is not outlined." Also, we read (ibid., p. 311): "What we term mortal mind or carnal mind, dependent on matter for manifestation, is not Mind. God is Mind."
