No Adulterating Christian Science. SECTION 10. A member of this
Church shall not publish profuse quotations from Mary Baker Eddy's
copyrighted works without her permission, and shall not plagiarize
her writings. This By-Law not only calls more serious attention to
the commandment of the Decalogue, but tends to prevent Christian
Science from being _adulterated_.

No Incorrect Literature. SECTION 11. A member of this Church shall
neither buy, sell, nor circulate Christian Science literature which
is not correct in its statement of the divine Principle and rules and
the demonstration of Christian Science. Also the spirit in which the
writer has written his literature shall be definitely considered.
His writings must show strict adherence to the Golden Rule, or his
literature shall not be adjudged Christian Science. A departure from
the spirit or letter of this By-Law involves schisms in our Church
and the possible loss, for a time, of Christian Science.

Obnoxious Books. SECTION 12. A member of this Church shall not
patronize a publishing house or bookstore that has for sale obnoxious
books.

Per Capita Tax. SECTION 13. Every member of The Mother Church shall

shall be forwarded each year to the Church Treasurer.

every member, who can afford it, to subscribe for the periodicals
which are the organs of this Church; and it shall be the duty of the
Directors to see that these periodicals are ably edited and kept
abreast of the times.

Church Organizations Ample. SECTION 15. Members of this Church shall
not unite with organizations which impede their progress in Christian
Science. God requires our whole heart, and he supplies within the
wide channels of The Mother Church dutiful and sufficient occupation
for all its members.

Joining Another Society. SECTION 16. It shall be the duty of the
members of The Mother Church and of its branches to promote peace on
earth and good will toward men; but members of The Mother Church
shall not hereafter become members of other societies except those
specified in the Mother Church Manual, and they shall strive to
promote the welfare of all mankind by
