To the Editors of The Universalist Leader:—
I am always drawn to "Editorial Briefs" at once on opening The Leader, for there is generally something to interest and instruct; but I am more than usually interested in those of December 11, or that portion relating to Christian Science; and I want to say a word, simply to set my esteemed Brother Atwood right on a few points regarding the subject where he seems to some extent misinformed.
First, let me say that my experience tells me that Christian Scientists are not made such, in any sense, by the "mysterious or semi-supernatural" aspect of its claims. On the contrary, as a rule, and in a majority of instances, people look to Christian Science for physical help only after all other efforts and means of relief have been abandoned by the physician.
