My attention has been called to an article which appeared in a recent issue of your paper in which a writer, under the heading "Everyday Living," makes reference to Christian Science in a way that calls for some explanation.

After including Christian Science with several systems of thought which had been investigated by a friend who had written a book, the writer made the following statement: "But he did not stop; he followed where the light led, and discovered a truth beyond all these half-truths."

It is upon the Bible and especially upon the words and works of Christ Jesus that the Christian religion known as Christian Science is based. Mary Baker Eddy has written on page 126 of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures": "I have found nothing in ancient or in modern systems on which to found my own, except the teachings and demonstrations of our great Master and the lives of prophets and apostles. The Bible has been my only authority."
