A correspondent of a certain paper says: "Mind cure" is a difficult subject to grasp, especially for one outside the fraternity of Scientists, for it is wholly unique in its philosophy of health and disease. Its teachings seem on first view to be in many points at variance with the accepted facts of science and the lessons of personal-sense concussions.
But its practical proofs of the verity of the positions it advances are weighty arguments in its favor. Its success in curing disease is attested by hundreds of striking cases, not found alone among ignorant and credulous persons, but including some of our well-known citizens and people of high literary fame.
