is a certain statement repeated by Mary Baker Eddy in her writings which, although constituting but a part of her revelation to this age, must have made, within two generations, an incalculable difference to mankind.

The very interesting remarks made by a clergyman in a recent sermon and reported in the Evening News, with reference to spiritual healing in the Christian churches, and the endeavors of the Christian Scientist in this direction, whilst they indicate a growing tendency in the Christian churches to reach out for divine means of healing.
Ralph G. Lindstrom, Committee on Publication for the State of Colorado,
Christian Scientists rejoice in the press dispatch in your recent issue to the effect that the Jewish church is about to undertake the investigation of spiritual healing.
David A. Giel, Acting Committee on Publication for Holland,
In a recent issue of your paper a critic, though writing in a very appreciative way about Christian Science and its daily paper, The Christian Science Monitor, incidentally calls it profane that in The Mother Church in Boston, on one side of the great organ stands engraved a quotation from the New Testament, bearing Christ Jesus' name, and on the other side by way of a "pendant" a quotation by Mary Baker Eddy, thus putting the latter on a level with Jesus.
Theodore Burkhart, Committee on Publication for the State of Oregon,
