Truth Teller

In your leading article in the Truth Teller of July 22, in which a celebrated criminal lawyer tells what he thinks of allopathy, occurs a statement which may be misleading to some of your readers, and I shall therefore appreciate space in your publication to correct it.

The writer says in his article: "I know that they [the doctors] continue to write their prescriptions in Latin so that the patients will not know what they are taking. In this respect they are practicing Christian Science—operating on the minds of their patients." This is very misleading, for that is not the method of Christian Science, which adheres to the method taught and practiced by Christ Jesus, his disciples, and the early Christians, who continued to heal the sick by spiritual means for about three centuries after the crucifixion of Jesus.
