lesh is heir to," the antidote for sickness,
as well as for sin, may and must be found in mortal mind's
opposite,--the divine Mind.

_Second_: It is more effectual than drugs; curing where [30]

[Page 34.]

these fail, and leaving none of the harmful "after effects" [1]
of these in the system; thus proving that metaphysics
is above physics.

_Third:_ One who has been healed by Christian Sci-
ence is not only healed of the disease, but is improved [5]
morally. The body is governed by mind; and mortal
mind must be improved, before the body is renewed
and harmonious,--since the physique is simply thought
made manifest.

_Is spiritualism or mesmerism included in Christian_ [10]
_Science?_

They are wholly apart from it. Christian Science is
based on divine Principle; whereas spiritualism, so far
as I understand it, is a mere speculative opinion and
human belief. If the departed were to communicate [15]
with us, we should see them as they were before death,
and have them with us; after death, they can no more
come to those they have left, than we, in our present state
of existence, can go to the departed or the adult can re-
turn to his boyhood. We may pass on to their state [20]
of existence, but they cannot return to ours. Man is
_im_-mortal, and there is not a moment when he ceases to
exist. All that are called "communications from spirits,"
lie within the realm of mortal thought on this present plane
of existence, and are the antipodes of Christian Science; [25]
the immortal and mortal are as direct opposites as light
and darkness.

_Who is the Founder of mental healing?_

The author of "Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," who discovered the Science of healing em- [30]

bodied in her works. Years of practical proof, through [1]
homoeopathy, revealed to her the fact that Mind, in-
stead of matter, is the Principle of pathology; and
subsequently her recovery, through the supremacy of
Mind over matter, from a severe casualty pronounced [5]
by the physicians incurable, sealed that proof with the
signet of Christian Science. In 1883, a million of peo-
ple acknowledge and attest the blessings of this mental
system of treating disease. Perhaps the following
words of her husband, the late Dr. Asa G. Eddy, [10]
afford the most concise, yet complete, summary of the
matter:--

"Mrs, Eddy's works are the outgrowths of her life.
I never knew so unselfish an individual."
