From the January 1898 issue of The Christian Science Journal


In one of our Western cities, two members of the legislature, one of whom was a physician, called at the home of a Christian Scientist, for the purpose of inquiring into the method of practice of Christian Scientists. The gentleman of the house was not in, as the callers were informed by the servant girl. This girl was herself a firm believer, and the visitors, seeing this, proceeded to interview her. The physician asked her if Christian Scientists located disease. With a quickness of wit peculiar to her race she replied: "No, indeed they don't. The doctors locate disease and Christian Scientists dis-locate it."
