A Young up-town physician who, during the past fifteen years, has built up a large and flourishing practice, has thrown his medicines and surgical instruments aside and adopted the Christian Science method of healing.
Dr. Frank W. Haviland of 210 West One Hundred and Twenty-third Street, studied medicine in the Long Island College, Brooklyn, from which he was graduated in 1881, and fifteen years ago settled in Harlem, where he became widely known.
He said yesterday that his attention was first directed to Christian Science about nine years ago. and he read carefully the text-book on that science by the Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, and observed that it contained much that invited sober thought. During several years following he learned more about the practical results of treatment in Christian Science.
