A few months ago, the Journal of Christian Science, through its columns, answered this question, "Has Mrs. M. B. G. Eddy, the founder and teacher of Mental Therapeutics, lost her power to heal?" But the "still vex'd Bermoothes" needs reiterated reassurance, and we, as healers of mind, delight to give him the Gilead-balm of a second answer to his repeated inquiry:
There is no professional practitioner in the field of mental healing doing so many, so marvellous, and instantaneous cures, as Mrs. M. B. G. Eddy. And that without being publicly known at present as a healer. This declaration we make upon evidence sufficient to forever establish the reputation of any preacher, or teacher, or practising mental physician on earth. Not a day passes but that letters from all parts of the country are received, filled with expressions of gratitude for health recovered by reading her book, "SCIENCE AND HEALTH." Not a class is graduated from her college but numbers those who, under the power of her righteous instructing thought, are healed of life-long ailments. Not a Sabbath' s preaching of the Word of Life, but looses the bonds of some poor sick or crippled prisoners. One which came under our observation after the sermon of Jan. 18, was that of a man who went into Hawthorne Hall on crutches, but the power of the Truth as she gave it utterance, set him free from his infirmities, and he went home without his crutches!
"God blesses still the generous thought
And still the fitting word He speeds,
And Truth, at his requiring taught,
He quickens into deeds."
