Your interesting article on the subject of "Spiritual Healing" has been brought to my notice by numbers of your readers—even readers beyond the State of Victoria. They are pleased to note the high esteem with which you regard Mrs. Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, when you describe her as a woman who "must rank as one of the great benefactors of humanity."

However, several statements in your article might lead to a misunderstanding of the true position of Christian Science and of Mrs. Eddy's relationship to this religion, if these statements were to remain unchallenged.

The assertion that Christian Science "becomes a cult of self-interest" is not upheld by the opening sentence of the first chapter of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," where Mrs. Eddy says, "The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the sick is an absolute faith that all things are possible to God,—a spiritual understanding of Him, an unselfed love."
