She then answers the question thus: "As the law of God, the law of good, Interpreting and demonstrating the divine Principle and rule of universal harmony." Let me now call attention to this fact Her declarations and defini tions are squarely in line with statements and facts and conclusions so ably set forth in 170C by the eminent Sir fWdlllaiu I'lackstoue, who wrote his commentaries on the laws of England one hundred years before Mrs. Eddy made her discov ery or the "divine laws or tare, Truth, and Love." Their statements and logic agree In substance and in fact. They agree that the basic law is divine God's law. They further agree that God's divine law Is revealed through the Scriptures and must be discovered therein; and they are in exact accord with the fact that divine law is sufficiand ent under all circumstances conditions to meet the human needs of mankind. The learned Blackstone his Investigations and confined writings to the civil laws of men and nations; whereas, Mrs. Eddy, through her writings, has applied or divine laws from a spiritual, metaphysical, basis, unfolding the divine plan of perfection and harmony in all things. ( business now begins to the miracle working power of the Reconstruction Finance corporation, which, led by a gentleman smoking an upside-dowpipe tries to restore prosperity In upside down manner from the top.

The same authority predicts that: "Government expenditures will be finally reduced either through the actual failure of the needed receipts or because of the to materialize people's opposition to the payment of the taxes demanded and the re placement of present officials by men willing and capable to Institute the necessary economies.

No thinking person will anme that Christian Scientist! fall to recognize tb commands or preccpta R of Jesus, or that the teachings of Mrs. Kikiy supersede In the slightest degree his teachings or doctrines. I submit the following section from the Manual of The Mother Church (p. 17) to show that Mrs. Eddy had u0 such Intention. The section is as follows: "At a meeting of the Christian Scientist Association, April 19, 1.S79, on motion of Mrs. Eddy, it was voted, To organize a church designed to commemorate the word and works of our Master, which should reinstate primitive Christianity and its lost element of healing." Every person before becoming a member of any Christian Science church or society must subscribe to six religious tenets. The basis of the Christian Science faith is summed up In the last, or sixth tenet, as follows: "And we solemnly promise to watch, and pray for that Mind to be in us which was also in Christ Jesus; to do unto others as we would have them do unto us; and to be merciful, Just, and pure" (Science and Health, p. 497). Christian Scientists are striving to express the Christ-spiri- t at all times. They are striving to emulate the healing works of Jesus. They are striving to get the same vision of the Christ that saved the human Jesus In the dark hours of his earthly career from the belief of death and the grave. They are con- fidentaly exacting In the fullness of time to be rewarded by having that wonderful vision expressed by Paul, "Till we all come in the unity of the faith, mid of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a iorfect man, unto the measure of the stut-ur- e of the fullness of Christ." The realities and beauties of creation are continually unfolding to the Christian Scientist. The real man of God's creation, expressing His goodness, Is a fact a reality. How many calendar years may elapse before mankind generally will appreciate and accept the fact that man partakes of the essence of God's goodness here and now cannot be definitely ascertained. One by one mortals catch glimpses of the unfolding of divine Principle, and they iM'ittme conscious of God's law and order operating here, now, and everywhere. -- never created But how are they to be accounted for? The wisdom of Solomon has giveu us a rational key to the solution. Speuklng of mortal man he said, "As he think-et- h in his heart, so is he." There is au accepted rule, that like produces like. Now Solomon's statement will Justify the conclusion that, In the absence of restraining Influences, sinful thoughts will result lu overt sinful acts. His saying also established the fact that tne material nody or the man is not the offender, the culprit. The Inxiy Is only the convenient avenue or channel for expressing the behests of the sinful and depraved mortal mind. Mortal mind is alwuvst the offender that deserves punishment. A significant fact worthy of our note at this time is, that our courts of Justice mete out punishment to offenders only after the proof has shown affirmatively that a defendant has first formed a Intention to do wrong and has thereafter acted upon that inten well-dwflne- d tion. AN ILLUSTRATION An help ment Illustration at this point will to fix the force of the arguthat the material body of a man Is merely the avenue or channel, and Is not the culprit. An efficient young boy, a page In a banking Institution, was left lu charge of a large sum of money. Assuring himself that no one was near him, and that the avenues of escai were favorably oien, he advanced to the center of the cage, put forth his hand, and was in the act of taking a package of bank bills, when In a firm and decisive voice he affirmed, "I am not a thief." There was no action of protest from his body, and without delay his Land was withdrawn, and his arm assumed Its normal posiaffords tion. That circumstance convincing proof that the mental action holds absolute control over the body. You may ask, Was this young boy a Christian Scientist? No. He had never heard of Christian Science. He did, however, hear "a still email voice" which told him he was honest. Furthermore, in the face of that temptation he was prompted to put Into oierat!on a Christian Science denied and reversed He practice. the error (temptation), and affirmed and applied the truth (that he was not a thief). Will It le assumed by any thinking person that when tempted to become what he was not, divine law did not intervene? The divine law of ever present good was operating then and there, and It healed that young boy Instantly from the dreadful disease of lellevlng he could be a thief.

I am sure all will agree that these sentiments are noble and inspiring and are evidence that divine law and order U unfolding In human consciousness. Another tangible evidence of this unfolding Is found In the fact that war has been outlawed and abolished among nations through legal procedure, and pence, prosperity, and progress of cviliza-tloenhanced thereby, through right thinking. This progress la the evidence that the "law of God, the law of good," is ojerating continually and drawing humanity up to the higher levels of thought and action. As It is essential to understand the nature of God, so It Is an Imperative necessity to understand the spiritual nature of man, as from the material distinguished structure of the body. A simple Illustration may serve the purpose of fixing the fact that the body is merely the servant of the conscious, mental individual, and docs bis bidding. see a real spring scene.
