In answer to A. F. in the February issue, who complains of "Christian Science specialists" advertised in the Journal, our-self being unintentionally one of the offenders, we would say that it may be well to consider the subject a little further. We are constantly reminded that we are not equal with Jesus in his mighty demonstrations of Truth— which would need no other advertising— and this is one of those reminders. If A. F. is specially working with the Truth to expose and destroy some special errors of others, then there is no reason why the same Truth should not expose and destroy all manner of disease and discord; herein A. F. would be working in unity with the universal thought and Principle which destroys all manner of error. If there are those who believe that geographical miles are a hindrance to their treatment of disease, should we not let the Spirit bear witness to Omnipresent Mind and Life which destroys every special claim of error? Was not the Word of Jesus to the centurion, "thy servant is healed," both a special and a general healer? Who can say that Jesus was not a special, as well as a general healer in obedience to his reflection of the unity of Principle and its multiform individual ideas of Life and Love? Like A. F., we are willing to be corrected by others; we should also be more willing to correct ourselves, and thereby save others the disagreeable task of doing it for us.
This is not intended as an argument in favor of keeping attached to our card words whose true meaning may be in accord with wisdom, yet which may be made to appear to some a stumbling block; nevertheless, we do give absent patients special attention, by writing out scientific answers to their special complaints.—
