Miss Ethel Walters, Committee on Publication for Dorset, England,
In your issue of January 21 there appears a letter containing extracts from the writings of Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, and in order to remove any misunderstanding there might be in the minds of your readers, I shall be glad if you will kindly insert this reply.
Upon
entering a university, a young student of Christian Science found a Christian Science organization and wondered why it was needed when a short distance from the campus there was a Christian Science church and also a Reading Room.
While
reading the narrative of Noah and his sons, contained in the ninth chapter of Genesis, a student was impressed by the difference in the attitude of one son and that of his two brothers in respect to the father's sin.
What
a burden is lifted from the human heart when sickness is discovered to be not the true condition of man, but a mistaken belief concerning God's spiritual, perfect man.
It
has been aptly said that the seven units of time, namely, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years, constitute seven great fears of mankind.
Among
the innumerable blessings and benefits which Christian Science brings to humanity, perhaps the greatest is the gradual but certain transformation of the human character, by which the grosser elements are lost, while all that is fine, noble, grand, and enduring, remains because it is related to God, good.

In replying to a clergyman's remarks on Christian Science, I should like to point out that the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science has brought to the world a religion that is healing the sick, reforming the sinner, and in so doing affords practical proof of the Science she elucidates.
